Shoe Collection

My Shoe Collection


Hi Everyone so apologies for not blogging for ages and to make it up to you I will be blogging everyday in April!!! So please check out my blog to see those posts!

But today I'm going to do a little post on my Shoe Collection. 

Yes I'm aware I have quite a lot of shoes however this post is not at all bragging I just thought it would be a nice idea for a blog post. As you can see I do have a lot of trainer type branded shoes which actually I'm not so keen on as much now and I guess I'm kind of maturing on the shoes I like and what I wear so maybe I'll do an updated one of these at a later date! So I'm just going to list the shoes and where there from down below...

White high-top converse - Office 

Pink Converse - Office

Beige gem sandals - Next

Multi-coloured sandals - I got these a few years ago in Greece so I don't know if you could get hold of these anymore

Straw-coloured mid heels - Ted Baker

Leopard print vans - Office

Black Patent Heels - George at Asda

Red Vans - Schuh

Black sparkly vans - Schuh

Pink and purple Nike blazers - Nike

White low converse - Office

Classic brown Uggs - UGG



I do have a few other pairs downstairs but they're all black so they're more of the shoe I would wear to school so I haven't included them!


So I hope this was interesting to just take a look at my shoe collection and if you have any requested post them please comment them below!!!

Nars Laguna bronzer review

Nars Laguna Bronzer Review




Okay so I've wanted this bronzer for a while but never seemed to buy it however last weekend while on a shopping trip with my friend I persuaded myself to buy it. I read 
a lot of reviews on blogs and on YouTube before and it was being constantly raved about.




So in the store the colour looked a bit dark and scary and maybe a bit too much but after using it I instantly fell in love with it, the colour is quite dark but blend it a bit and problem 
solved. It has a slight shimmer but its not too much but the perfect amount which gives an amazing summer glow to the face without creating a weird orange line. This bronzer is great for contouring.




This bronzer is priced at £26 which is very expensive for a bronzer but I think in this case you pay for what you get.

Overall I love Nars Laguna Bronzer and I think this product will be living in my make up bag for a long time.
