I thought I'd talk to you all about a little thing called Buyapowa. I first saw this on Miss BB's
blog and youtube channel. It's a similar idea to Groupon and Living Social except most of what you can buy are beauty products! Yay!
The idea is that there are four things you can buy at any one time and the more people that buy the lower the price is! There's the added bonus that if you bring other people to the site who also buy, then you might get the item free (not that I envisage this happening to me any time soon).
The website I admit looks a bit cheesy but you can get some really good things at cheap prices. They have had GHD's for about £70, loads of Liz Earle products and all brands of make up! The reason I've recently got excited about it again is because right now they have the Katy Perry perfume for £17 pound!! Less than half price!
I received this perfume from my boyfriend for my birthday last year and I've had to save it so I don't run out because I couldn't afford to buy any more. Everything about it is great- the bottle is so different from any other and the smell is sweet but fruity. I think it's perfect for going out and in the evenings but as Buyapowa have such a great deal I'll be able to wear it all the time now!!
Has anybody else tried Buyapowa and what do you think?? I'm looking forward to my new perfume coming!!
Loads of Love

P.S Shipping is only £1.50!!! Bargain!

What's in my bag?....
I've tagged myself for this as I love this tag and always enjoy a good nosy in other people's bags!
I'll start with the bag itself- a TK Maxx special. If I need a bag or shoes the first place I always look is TK Maxx. This one is a fairly new purchase from last month. I'd found that none of my other bags fit everything in plus my lunch when I'm at work. Hopefully this one is going to last me through until the summer. It's really two bags in one. The inner one clips in so you can either have it extra large or a smaller accross-body bag. I fell in love with it as soon as I saw it!
Here's a peek at everything that I manage to fit in it (most of which I don't use on a daily basis)!
I carry way too much with me, but I can't help feeling like I will need it at somepoint! In fact there are only 3 things I every definitely check for with my little mantra before I leave the house; phone, money and keys. If I desperately need anything else I can buy it (money) I have my phone for emergencies and keys to get back in the house!
I don't even wear lipstick to work but for some reason I have many lip products in my bag- just in case I end up going anywhere lip products make me feel more 'made-up'. I am ashamed by how many I carry day-to-day though!! Don't judge me!
Even with all those lip beauties I manage to fit in my I-Pod- sorry I'm old school no I-Pod touch or I-Phone. Some perfume samples of CK Shock to keep me smelling sweet whatever I'm doing. I also carry Impulse body spray (so cheap but very 1999).
I have my bag foundation which is a Virgin Vie powder foundation for touch ups. There's also my kindle, my strawberry shaped laptop mouse- I'm at my mum's for Mother's Day so my brother, me and our respective partners all like to laptop it up around the table and the Avon book I've brought to see if my mum wants anything.
The only last bits are L'Occitane hand cream and some anti-bacterial hand gel which has almost run out, a bobble for when my hair gets annoying as it always does and two sets of keys, one for my house and one for my mum and dad's.
.
When it's all in my bag (which when I see it all spread out, I can't believe it can all fit) there is still loads of room! Amazing, maybe I need more bits and bobs to carry around with me?!?
Please tell me I am not the only one walking around with random bits in my bag? Please?!! :)

Carmine have said I can have my money back! Finally! I offered to send the box back if they send a free shipping label but they haven't asked for it. I'm going to cancel it and re-sign for Jolie Box! Yay

A Wish In My Heart For You...
Colour block bucket bag is roomy for carrying everything you need for school or work. Patent T-Bar shoes, just enough height to keep it flirty but practical. Barry M pastel collection and Pastel bead coil bracelet, reminds me of something I would have had when I was little but very cute!
All the above are from ASOS which I love! I've been shopping their site from back when it was items from films and tv (As Seen On Screen). It's my first stop when I'm after something new.
What are you pastel must haves??

OOTD (Friday Edition)
Now I'm not one for outfit posts, usually because I can't be bothered to try with my clothes occasionally though I do put some effort into it! This is what I wore shopping to Meadowhall on Friday night. I don't know if I'm pleased I didn't buy anything or sorry! I apologise for the bad quality but I've lost my camera at the moment so have to use my phone!
What does everybody else wear to go shopping?
