Sorry for my absence haul.

Well it's been since Halloweenie that I had posted something on here. I do actually have a few things to talk about but it's been more a matter of getting motivation to do it because work has just been a huge pain in the ass. I've only been in the working world for two months now and It's definitely the wrong time to start in retail because of Christmas, so busy! But there are so many other worse jobs out there so I should be grateful and I am getting paid so... BONUS! (Money is the Anthem of Success)
But since I had a bad week full of silly mistakes and public/manager humiliation and another major week ahead of me I though I may as well do some retail therapy.

I wore the bracelet my close friend gave me for my Birthday for the first time in public, it's so fragile and precious...

Small Town Fashion Haul

My day was pretty good. I had my skin consulted by M.A.C. Up until I had been using drug store brand make-up which was *o.k* but didn't really suite my skin tone and because the new department store opened I though, why not! They make up they advised me MATCHED PERFECTLY! The only problem... they had sold out of it. Another order of them should be here in the next few days so that's okay. I can live looking like a nacho  for a few more days.
The Haul:
1. Nike Free 5.0
2. Bodyshop lip gloss (for a friend)
3. Nak Dry Shampoo
4. Klorane Dry Shampoo with Oat Milk
5. Nak Heat Beat Protective Sealant
6. Drugstore brand "birthday suit" lipstick
7. White Glo whitening toothpaste
8. Halloween Cat Nail Decal Stickers
9. Oyster Magazine




So explaining why I have two dry shampoo cans. I received a sample of Klorane's Dry Shampoo with September's Bella Box (which I will do a post about one day). I fell in love with the Dry Shampoo because I had used Tresemme's previously and it was so heavy and kind of made my hair oily but Klorane's was very effective and was super light and brushed out so nicely and didn't have a sort of hairspray effect like Tresemme's did. I went silky and fresh. Since it was a sample I quickly ran out. (I did get a decent amount of usage out of it really). The search began and I thought because I hadn't heard of the brand before no where would have it so I was kind of scared I'd be stuck with Tresemme or having the danger of trying a new brand and having a disaster. I searched though all of the hair and cosmetic stores and didn't find my faithful Klorane. The name which kept coming up for dry shampoo was Nak's so I finally settled with it. It came with a bonus Heat Protector which was handy. After buying it my next venture was into the supermarket just to buy the White Glo. First thing I saw? Klorane dry shampoo. I was not pleased! Atleast I have back up dry shampoo. A gal can never have too much dry shampoo!

Super excited to try these nail stickers. They were a steal at $4 so I just had to have them. They're just so cute!

This edition of Oyster mag has a feature on "Tumblr celebrities" like Molly Soda and the like. I'm keen to read into it. I've been following Molly Soda on Tumblr for around a year and a bit and I love her personality and style. Like, last month she performed with Grimes, super jealous! But I was so sad to hear about SMG's passing but recently she got two new boys rats. Theres your Molly Gossip for the day.

Still deciding whether I want to upload my outfit~

Maison Martin Margiela for H&M

Browsing the internet before work this morning led me to some new loves or *must haves*.
Maison Martin Margiela's new collection for H&M is absolutely stunning. Never before have I wanted a whole collection as much as this. The collection boasts womans and mens clothing but honestly they aren't limited to gender. Sadly though, there are absolutely no H&M stores in my country so I will have to resort to the internet, which is okay (and the future) but I'd like to try a few things on, especially the shoes.

So what were your favourites?

First items I fell for were the fair ground chic Candy Wrapper Clutch. This little baby comes in Silver or Hot Metallic Pink. According to Fashionologie the clutch will retail for $60USD. I have found a few that are selling on Ebay but people are currently going for around $150+ 
Cute!

The second item I fell for was the Oversized Peacoat. I'm an absolute sucker for pea coats but sadly, I do not live in a climate that allows me to flaunt around in a lovely coat. This little baby retails at a price of $349USD which in my opinion is a steal!
So 60's
