Bits I've bought

Zara shopper bag £29.99 (can't find it online anymore!)

Real Techniques starter set - £21.99      //      Necklace -  £1.99

These are just a few bits I've been buying recently. I needed a new handbag for a while and had my eye on a few, but there was nothing really grabbing my attention. I really liked the Zara office city bag, but it's not what I actually need, a bit too bulky and businessy. This one is perfect as it has a zip and is a nice size. However, I wish I could put it on my shoulder more, it fits nicely in the crook of my arm, but I carry around so much that it can hurt sometimes!.

As you all know, I'm a massive real techniques fan and I need some new eye brushes. I think the deluxe crease brush is the perfect Mac 217 dupe. This necklace was an absolute bargain from ebay and the seller has so many more. The delivery was really quick as well, and was free! 

What do you think of my purchases and have you been buying much recently?

    Love the bag! I've been meaning to buy a new bag, because mine is starting to look a bit limp and lame. Maybe I'll make one! :)

    I love the necklace.. The bag is really pretty. There were times when io use to buy big bags and dump everything in there. I started getting backaches and from that moment i have stopped carrying them and go for a normal size where i can fit just the things that i need.
