H&M Statement Necklace

First off, I ninety-five percent admit that I am not a jewellery girl. One reason is that I can never ever spell it correctly but mostly, I just don't really like much of it. I think I must just be very fussy and sometimes I think it can get in the way. Don't get me wrong, I have a special place in my heart reserved for my silver-with-a -big-diamond (not set in) engagement ring that I will one day in the (far far away) future be given, but for the most part, jewellery isn't for me.

However, there are those few and far between moments that make up that five percent of my feelings on jewellery and one of them happened only two weeks ago. I spotted this beautiful necklace in H&M for £7.99. I needed something to add a little colour to the black playsuit I bought for my friends eighteenth and this little gem in perfect. You can see how I wore it in my last post.

I think I may now have a new favourite piece of jewellery, which isn't really that hard considering the size of my collection. But just look at it!

Outfit: Primark Lace Playsuit

Playsuit (belt included) - Primark - Reduced to £7

Necklace - H&M - £7.99

One of my best friends turns eighteen very soon and I wanted to make sure that I have photos of the outfit so that I can blog it. However, I know I won't have time on the day so I got dressed up mid-afternoon, two weeks in advance to take some pictures and to make sure it looked okay.

In real life, it looks a little dressier than it does in the top photo and the lace detail is so pretty. For £7 I don't think it's bad at all. Usually, I don't really like the belts that come with clothes but this one goes really well and cinches it in a little which is always nice.

I haven't decided if I'll pair it with black tights or nude tights on the night. I definitely need tights though, one for the confidence and two, because I can't get my heels on with out them. I also love this necklace. It adds the pop of colour the outfit needs and it just so pretty.

The Body Shop Eye Make Up Remover

The Body Shop - £8

Somebody on Twitter recommended me this product and everyone raves about The BodyShop but I've never really paid attention because I think they stuff is quite expensive. However, I thought I could stretch to £8 and decided to give the Comomile Eye Make Up Remover a go. 

With this product, a little goes a long way. Pouring just the tiniest amount on to a cotton pad will soak the whole pad. It's quite a big bottle as well at 250ml so it will last me a good while. 

The packaging does specify only eye make up remover but I just assumed that it could be used for your whole face. I wouldn't recommend this, it isn't the intended use and made my skin incredibly dry. Obviously I'm only speaking for my self - my skin becomes dry very easily so it might vary depending on your skin type. 

It does remove my eye make up pretty well, the only problem I have is that when i wake up I have slight panda eyes which means I have to use it again or grab a make up wipe. 

Honestly, it is a good product and I don't regret buying it. It does what is says and you get a lot of product for your money but I probably wouldn't purchase it again just because it hasn't jumped out at me. 

Have you tried this or got any alternatives?
