The post with my recent purchases

I realised that I have been promising a haul for a while now. I have finally got around to putting one together for you. These are just some of my recent purchases that I have got on a few of my recent shopping trips.

                   The College Bag, Topshop £30-something & Vans Old Skool £55 Surfdrome


Nike crop top £16 (from Outlet store at Gunwarf Keys) Candle £5 from Spitalfields Market 
Maybelline Nail Polish "Mauve Kiss" & Colour Tattoo in "On and on Bronze"

Of course I needed a new college bag (even though there was technically nothing wrong with the old one) and I found this cute leather-look rucksack in Topshop. It has loads of pockets which are so helpful for organising all my stuff - I love the zip details too. My turquoise Vans old skool were a little results present from my parents. Admittedly, I am not finding them so comfy but I am persevering with them because the colour is amazing. I went to Spitalfields market in London, and came back with this gorgeous little candle that says "Love you to the moon and back" the mason jar gives it a nice old world-y effect and it smells like heaven on earth (vanilla soy to be exact.) If you find yourself anywhere near Spitalfields market I would definitely recommend you to at least go and smell one of these candles. At Gunwarf Keys I found a Nike crop top for just sixteen pounds in the outlet store which I just couldn't refuse. My cheaper sports tops have been falling apart so I thought it would be good to invest in a better quality one - love the colour and acid effect too. I feel the "real deal" now that  i'm wearing Nike to workout. Lastly, a few Maybelline purchases (which were buy one get one half price in Superdrug by the way) I got this nail polish which is exactly the shade that I had been looking for (kind of dark nude) and I finally re-purchased the colour tattoo eyeshadow in my favourite shade "on and on bronze." Don't make the same mistake that I did and by the taupe shade because they look the same from the outside but the taupe one is nothing like on and on bronze (and really horrible.)

Comment and let me know your favourites. Also, don't forget that you can also follow me on Instagram (_ells__) and Twitter (@mallowells) Thank you for reading!
