As promised, a quick look at a few of the things I've bought in the last week or so.

First off, my newest perfume. I adore perfumes: I love buying them, wearing them and keeping the bottles afterwards. I do tend to go through perfumes pretty quickly but I don't mind because I love going out and picking a new one to try. I very rarely go for the same one twice (especially not one after the other) but I will be making an exception for my "special perfume." After waiting and saving for a Chanel perfume, I was lucky enough to get given one for Christmas last year and I absolutely love it. It's Coco Mademoiselle and I will 100% save up to buy it again once I've finished it. I do, however, only use it on special occasions and is not by any means my everyday perfume.

Which is where this one comes in:

After to-ing and fro-ing between this one and Zara'a Rose fragrance, the design on the box tipped my decision and I'm so glad it did. This is probably one of my favourite every day perfumes I've had in the past year or so, mostly because it's so light and fresh and is not intoxicating like others I've used previously. Definitely worth the money.

Also worth the money was this cheeky little sale item I stumbled upon without even meaning to. Mum and I were just about to queue in New Look when we saw a bunch of bags in the sale and after being taken with a cute little black bag, I saw this sequin number and there was no way I wasn't going to buy it!
