eBay wants & small 3 item haul!

Heya guys and gals of the blogosphere, these are my latest eBay lusts/wants and since i had a little outing to Liverpool i thought i'd mention the 3 items i picked up for myself as the rest of the items i picked up was for jade in the box swap i'm doing!
1. Vintage style dress//Link
2. Real techniques Dupes gold//Link
3.Real technique dupes pink //Link
4. Pendant 'quote' necklace//Link
5. Mint green pleated dress//Link
I think all these products would be perfect for the coming months and are all amazingly cheap!
The real techniques 'dupes' seem to be getting raved about alot so they deserved to be in my eBay wishlist.

Whilst i was in Liverpool today picking up some final bits for my beauty box swap with jade i also picked up some things for myself, a garnier moisturizer and two lollipops in the flavors 'fizzy watermelon' and 'Dr pepper'



Whats your favorite flavor of lollipop?

Vintage Fair;Review&purchases...

Heya guys and gals of the blogosphere, yesterday i went to a small vintage fair so i decided to give you lovely readers the low down on what i thought about it and what i purchased.[Beware this post will be full of pictures!]
The place this was held is called Kenyon hall farm//Link  inside the building their is a cafe & the farm shop ( Both very over priced.) Outside was green houses and a field to go strawberry/berry picking. The vintage fair was held inside the farms barn which i personally really did like, it added something unique to the fair (bales of hay make a difference in 'Amy's world' you see.)
The fair wasn't excautly 'vintage' it was more a mixture of crafts stalls and a few vintage stalls through in the mix, so i was kind of disappointed; However the stalls that were their i did have a nosy through. All the people selling were friendly that i spoke to and a few i did find intimidating and under some sort of pressure to buy after I've browsed which sadly couldn't happen on every stall i looked at.
Overall i'd say this fair earned a fair (see what i did their...yeah i'm not funny..just stop Amy.) 6/10.


  
How cute! 
Happy birthday to Kenyon hall farm!
This was in the farm shop, I thought it added a vintage touch.


Just the boyfriend being my pack mule.

My Purchases:
I didn't buy alot whilst i was their because well like i said it wasn't overly vintage, but i did pick up some little gems!
I picked up to vintage handcrafted wall plaques/hangings for a pound each. They are the cutest, the goose one reminded me of Percy the goose from the pond over the road from my house (he's adorable) and the heart i just thought would look on my bedroom door; I also picked up a gorgeous bath bomb which just has the nicest,strongest scent. I will do a review on it to see if i like it better than my lush favorites! 
Finally, the main reason i wanted to do this post, i picked up a vintage lamp...it's beautiful...very grandma styled i know, but i'll make it work somehow. I was amazed to see this gem was only 3 pound! so i snapped it up with my boyfriend stood watching being very skeptical about what i was going to do with it, other peoples opinions aside, I love it.



Have you thrifted anything lately?

My Hair care Favorites!

My Hair care Favorites!
I have an obsession for looking after my hair, because i never used to take notice of how much damage i caused it but lately since my hair became dry i decided to take control of my fried mess of hair and did a no heat detox, i can honestly say it helped and now i continue to look after my hair using these products!
so firstly in my favorites is the Tigi bed Urban antidotes which i picked up from TKmaxx for £14.99  this is amazing and smells amazing my only problem with it is that it drys your hair out if you wash your hair alot, like i do, so to deal with this i use the Batiste to spruce up my hair when it needs it, i love the scent, the packaging and the actual product because it refreshes my hair and adds volume which is always a plus i picked this up for  £2.99.
The conditioner i use is herbal essences it has a fruity smell and makes my hair super super soft (i would link it but for some reason it doesn't exist on Google) i got this for a pound from pound land.
Another one of my favorites is the Tigi Shine blaster this stuff is amazing it does what it says it does and makes your hair ultra shiny it's great, i again picked this up from  TKmaxx  for  £7.99
lastly in my hair care favorites is the pro vitamin heat defense spray, this is about 70p from home bargains and pretty much does what it says my only problem with it is that you need to use alot of it but that evens it's self out because it inexpensive and sustainable.

mini haul!

Hey guys! been awhile since i posted because i've been a busy bee lately with going to london, my birthday, brithday shopping which i will do a load of separate posts on ect. i promise to try and get myself together; here goes.
Today i went shopping! firstly i ventured into TkMaxx to see if their was any dainty doll makeup on sale, because if you didn't know already i'm a pale ginger, so thats te makeup i usually tend to wear, it's a makeup range for gingers (or should i say pale skinned people) made by a ginger herself Nicola Roberts, unfortunatly their was none :'( however i did get some mee headphones from their, i didn't know if they were good or not but they caught my eye, so i bought them anyway. They are Iwave eyebuds artist collection-weathered. i don't know who the artist is or what it represents i just thought they looked good and for £4.99 i couldn't complain.
The second shop i explored was superdrug just for a nose around, and i spotted The Good Things cleansers, again i knew nothing about them but i thought I'd give it ago, i was lucky enough to see that these were 49p, crazy i know when they retail for £4.99 i got an amazing deal :') which i was very proud of, this profuct was in a discouted area just in the skincare section alone, so i'm not aware of any defects in the product. i then went to pound land after i read on another bloggers blog they were selling sleek lipsticks, and i found two of a nice colour and decided to buy them, the first one is im the colour organza which is a middle darkish pink and the second in satin which is like a brownish baby pink they're both lovely on and i shall do a separate post on how they go. I went into boots after that and splashed on a real techniques base brush because i need one this wasn't a bargin sadly i paid the full amount of £9.99 but the brush's from what i've heard are well worth it. Lastely i went to the body shop and got a sweet lemon scrub, only because it was discouted to £5 and i then had a voucher for a further 40% so o got the scrub for £3! amazing i know, i bought this for my mum originally but then i realised how good it smelt and well we're sharing it now, haha.
any more information you'd like to know leave a comment.
