Boohoo Haulin' - KatieDailies

Hey guys, So recently I've been spending money like a mad women!
I needed to buy a new dress for an upcoming event, but then I ended up getting sucked into the shiny sale deals of Boohoo.Com

At first everything went smootly until I got the package and it was missing the dress I had needed, long story short I contacted  Boohoo customer care and they said it was "out of stock" I was outraged as they had taken the money out of my account when they didn't need too.

So eventually I ended up ordering the dress in a different size and different colour and it came just in time and I was so excited! :)

While repurchasing the dress the second time, they over charged me and after another incident of contacting Boohoo they finally sorted my problems. So lets get into the haul :)

This is the lara sweetheart neckline dress and I purchased it in plum the first time round, second time I ended up with a Khakai green which is gorgeous! It was €15 when I purchased it but its only €12 now! Bargain! The delivery is free and the dress is made out of such nice quality material!

Sadly, I had to return this next product, I bought it in a size 14 and it just did not sit right, the material was like a wetsuit material, which sat very heavy on the body. I have returned this and am so sad about it as the length and colour were perfect except the shape! €9 on Boohoo.

This next item is one of my favorites, Its a hand harness and I love these things! This is €8 on boohoo, gold with spikes, my favorite thing is the two rings connecting to it are cute little shapes like hearts and flowers, its edgy while being girly all in one! 

For months now I have been collecting statement necklaces, So the Hattie triple row was an obvious choice for me! 

I taught €16 was a little pricey for this necklace but realizing how much detail went into it, it was actually a bargain! In person the colour is a little more yellow than the gold in the picture. I am in love with this and the €16 price tag was completely worth it!! 

I love pairing this with denim shirts and a skater skirt for a cute fashionable look! 

This next top is a bargain, it looks like a necklace along with a top! :)

Its only €12 and i got it in black, the only con is that it is extremely short, the front is so short it is nearly a crop top!!!! 

I love tucking this into a high waist-ed skirt or shorts and it looks fab! 

This black all over studded bag is gorgeous!!!! I have the exsact same bag from Primark and I got it for €3 on sale. Orginally 12 in primark. This bag on boohoo is well worth the €`16 price tag as it goes with everything and is well made!

I have become OBSESSED with the Charlie chain hand harness, I love love love these things. I got this harness for 10% with my student discount from unidays! :)
The gold is fabulous and looks great with any outfit :)

Enter code Euro10 at the checkout to receive a further 10% off!!! 

Overall I was happy enough with my Boohoo experience and was refunded all the money I was owed eventually. The only problem with Boohoo is that the customer service is through email, facebook and twitter, so no phone line means you will be waiting longer than normal! 

Overall I am happy with my new purchases! 

Happy shopping days girls :)

Aussie, New Year, Amazing Hair! @iamkatedillon93

Aussie Miracle Hair Insurance Leave In Hair Conditioner

For men, females and even animals if you wish!

"There's more to life than hair bit it's a good place to start" The Aussie Philosophy

With this in mind, why not start the new year with fabulous hair?!

This leave in conditioner cost me €7, but being the bargain queen i am i picked it up in Tesco Extra while they were having a 3 for €13 sale, Saving me an amazing €8. Thats practically free!!!!!

I was quite hesitant that this would do everything it said on the bottle, "a saviour for weak, distressed hair, protects and detangles" HELLO! That screams my hair!

My hair is knotty, bleached, dyed, out grown, fuzzy, kinky, thick and weak! THIS IS MY SAVIOUR! As said on the bottle :P

So Aussie said : "With a drop of Australian jojoba seed oil, helps detangle and protect, smells lush, is a must for the beach, makes styling easier".

I agree with everything in this statement and thats not too often. The jojoba seed oil leaves my hair smoothed and controlled without it being oily or greasy. It really does detangle my hair and i can control it so much easier, as they said.

Did i mention the smell?

IT SMELLS LUSH! i can not fault the smell, it is devine. When i whip my hair down, shake it all about, all day it smells of this stuff. Its fresh, fruity and clean. 

Sometimes i spray my hair on the second day, even when it is dry just to make my hair feel and smell great.

I have horrible dry ends at the moment, number one because of the bleach and number two i refuse to get a trim (that turns into 5 inchs off) :P

The price? €7. As some people might say, that is expensive for leave in conditioner. It comes with 250ml of product which sounds like very little, But in all reality its tons and tons of product which i plan on using!! :) 

How to use it:

IT COULD NOT BE SIMPLER, if i can do it, you can DO it!

I wash my hair, with shampoo, then my purple shampoo (to combat redness) then condition with my Aussie hair conditioner, click here for a review of that :) 

Then brush through my hair with a wide tooth comb, (saves that brush full of hair ;) ) and then spray my ends with this conditioner. I make sure to not put it in my roots, im sure you can but that could lead to an oily mess.

I seriously recommend this, to everyone. Even men!

One teeny tiny problem i had, was the packaging. For some reason it fell in my shower and went crazy, it snapped the neck in several places and sharp plastic was all over my shower. NOT SO SAFE!
Hopefully everyone isn't as clumsy as me!

Happy Hair Days, 2013 :)

Boohoo clothing haul - @Iamkatedillon93

Its the best time of year! Christmas :)

Im obsessed with Christmas.. the food... the smells.. the clothing..

So recently i've done a bit of shopping to keep myself nice and warm this winter.

I placed an order on Boohoo.Com and i could not have been happier! I planned on getting one or two pieces i ended up with a few more!

The HUGE package

I was so impressed by the value and the quality of the clothing, Sometimes i hate online shopping as it is very hard to tell sizing, length, shape etc! Boohoo has a great catwalk show and it shows all the pieces on real life models!

Two quirky items i got from Boohoo are these mustache design tank tops.

The first is grey and has a large mustache saying oui! Its got drop arm holes and its really quite cute! Was only €12!!
This would be gorgeous paired with anything, i can not wait to wear this paired with wine leggings and a cute blazer!

Click to buy here :)

The next is another mustache tank. This ones much longer and has hundreds of I love mustache badges. It was on sale for €8 and seeming its Movember i taught why not!! The back is an almost sheer fabric, layered correctly this could work for all seasons! I love love love this!

Click to buy here :)





I am obsessed with blazers. Anyone who knows me knows that so i got this dogtooth black and white blazer from Boohoo. I think it has a vintage style and will be great dressed up or down. It was only €22 and i love it. I was blown away with the quality of this, i was expecting a thin knit blazer but this blazer has an almost tweed like feel. The design is gorgeous and the shape would flatter any figure! This is my favorite piece i have ever bought from Boohoo! And of coarse i bought the oui top underneath cause of the picture  ;)

Click to buy blazer here!

The next is a cute black jumper from Boohoo with a gorgeous white lace detailing. It was only €22. I think this would be perfect with leggings are jeans and great for layering this Christmas :) On the website this looks like a heavy knit jumper in my opinion. But its actually very thin, it'd be great to layer with hats, gloves and scarves and the heart detail is to die for! One problem with this, its hand wash only, but soooo worth it!

It comes in tons of colours and i will be buying all of them!

Click to buy here :)

Another piece from Boohoo is a cream wide knit jumper with a love heart detailing in the same colour. Its 3/4 length sleeve is very flattering and super cute! This is actually very short in person and hits just above the waist, the heart detail is gorgeous and didn't quite pick up on camera. Sadly they only have it left in black but for 15 euro its a total bargain!

Buy here!

My next thin to buy! I am so angry i didn't wait one more day and i could have bought this gorgeous jumper! It came out the day after i had placed my order! Of coarse its the same pattern as the tank top but hey, a girl can't have too many mustache things! I love this and will be buying it asap! 

Click here to see :)

Here's a voucher to enter at the check out for 10% off everything! Oh did i mention free postage to Ireland? ;)

I had a small problem with the Alex heart jumper as it was pulling at the neck line. I tweeted boohoo and straight away customer care got in touch! Overall i genuinely love this website, i think it has grown so well and the staff are obviously very caring towards their customers!

Their returns policy is free and fast! I can not fault them!!!

Why not try it out for Christmas?

Happy shopping days!

25 hour stay Rimmel foundation :)

Hey hey.. another review!

As you know i Will only recommend something i have used and loved. I've been using this foundation for two months and this is my second bottle!

Price.

Its affordable at €8.50 the same as most drug store foundations.

Packaging

i personally love the pump. its so hygienic and the glass bottle looks great. 

one disadvantage is that at the end it becomes very difficult to get the remaining product out.

Foundation

coverage is amazing. 

full coverage foundation :) 

without looking cakey!

The Rimmel Bottle :) 

the colour is great for paler skin as they have a wide choice of colours!

only problem i find with this foundation is you use alot as it is not very buildable.

ie apply at 8am try to put more on at 10am. It tends to become very mucky and turns into a brownish colour!!

as for the 25hour stay power i disagree. :/ most it lasts is 8hours for me! :)

brilliant foundation. great price :)

Happy make up days! :)

The Rimmel foundation on :)

Summer Lovin'

Hey guys seeming the sun is shining in ireland (thank god), I taught it would be the perfect time to do a summer favorites tag!
These are the items i reach for the most and use nearly everyday :)

First of is my favorite scent of summer and its be delicious green by DKNY. I got this perfume and body lotion set for christmas and i have used the whole lot up since december this summer! the 
scent is so fresh and fruity. Yes it does smell like apples but it is not over whelming at all!

My next fav is Benifits "posie tint". This one is great for the beach, it stays on even in warm, watery situations! I often used this with some tinted moisturieser and i was good to go! The colour is a poppy pink and the formula looks just like a nail varnish! It lasts forever as you only need two or three small dots!

2true do a brilliant dupe for this called "blush tint cheeks n lips" and its only one sixth of the price!!!
You can get it in every superdrug and boots!


Midnight blue nail varnish from Julian mc donald is not a usual "summer" colour, but this is lovely on days that are not so bright in ireland! The depth of the blue is stunning and compared to my lovely pale skin it looks great! Dries extremly fast and the colour stays well no need for double coats!

The next one is this little bottle of hand sanitiser from bath and body works! I got some of these from america and they are the best thing ive ever used. They do not smell like that hidious hand sanitiser smell as if u just dipped your hand in nail varnish remover. Instead they smell of vanilla cookies, lavender, apple blossom, cherries all sorts of scents! There very moisturising and do not leave a drying feeling on your hands. I highly recommend these as they're perfect if you cant get to the sink to wash your hands!

Lipstick is a huge must have for summer. I think! I love this pink lipstick from boots natural collection in the shade "pink petal". This colour lasts forever and is extremly moisturising. I often use this as a tint and dab it on my lips, blot an go! Is very buildable and an absolute bargain!
                                                           
                                ...................................................................................

                            .......................................................................................

I have more summer nail polishs i love! This is oh so gorgeous by essence and is a bright orange colour. It looks alot darker on camera but in person its a more pastel shade of orange. The formula is great quality and again only needs one coat and dries instantly!
This fusia nail varnish is my fav all year around! The colour of it makes me think of flowers and gorgeous petals! This takes seconds to dry, the only bad thing is the brush is very narrow, takes well to the nails and stays for 3-4 days without chipping!

Fake eyelashes!!! Where would i be without my elf fake eye lashes? These are not a must have for summer but they can transform your make up from day to night in a matter of seconds! these come with glue but its not the best! They are not obviously fake and do not over power the eye! I often cut the end piece to make them blend in with my own eye lashes more! One coat of mascara and they blend in perfectly!

Last but not least is this ombre solaire tan! Sublime bronze! It is a gel formula and often this scares me as i have dry skin but i find if i moisturise the day before and exfoliate this tan stays on for days!!
It doesnt smell of curry or buscuits and only takes 8 hours to come up! It can often last a full week from one application and when moisturised turns into a gorgeous gold colour!

Happy Summer Lovin'

HUGE birthday haul :) Im back with a surprise!

Hey guys, so as some of you may have noticed i have been lacking in the "dailie" part of Katie Dailies blog, but with summer here and im off college i have something on nearly everyday! Also im on a clothes ban (Where im saving my money from buying clothes) so theres not too many clothing hauls!

On the 30th of july i turned 19 and it was the best birthday ive ever had! I was spoilt rotten and got so many presents and kind wishes from everyone! :)

I also got to catch up with college friends i hadn't seen in a while!

The day after my birthday a few friends and i headed into town to do some shopping and get some food! Of coarse i was dying to go shopping and headed straight to primark/pennys and bought some stuff there stay posted for a primark haul :)

Then i ended up looking in Claires Assesories somewhere i havent been since i was maybe 12, and ended up getting a ton of items from there! But my opinion of the place has changed completly as their jewlery is no longer all about friendship and glee but statement pieces you could wear everyday!

The total price of the shopping trip into Claires cost €41.54 with sale prices but read the end to find how cheap i got it :)

The first item i bought were these gorgeous gold dolly pumps in a size 5 and they fit like a glove! They were priced at €18.95 and then reduced in the sale!

I am in love with this pair of Metalic geometric style earings i got! These were €5.95 which i taught was a great price for them!!

These again are another pair of feather earings from Claires and they were €4 in the sale originally priced at €7.95, compared to primark thats a rip off but i loved the duo colour finish!

There nice and long and have very slim sliver chains to hang off :)

This next piece is something i saw and instantly had to have! its a gold plated wrap bangle. Which at first was a little tricky to get on but now it fits perfectly thanks to a little bit of streching :) It was originally priced at €10.95 but on sale was only €5 the same price as primark normally :)

These mia feather hair extensions are something ive been looking for for ages, and i finally found a shade of extension that contrasts well with my bright blonde hair! The contrast is lovely! These are amazing and were €8.50 each and i picked up three packets so in total €25.50! For three clips!

They are heat proof and can be curled, straightend, washed plaited anything really once your gentle with them! These are a nice length and have a simple clip in clip out style which connects to the root of your hairs! Simple to use, easy to wash and over all a perfect price!

These shoes were also in the sale and were priced at €18.95 and they also fit like a glove! i am so impressed with these shoes, they have a pointed toe giving a grown up feeling and also have a sligh heel on the back for an extra little lift :) I would recommened these to anyone they are so comfortable and are very true to size!

This bracelet is not something i would always go for but i taught it would look nice stacked with my shambala and skull bracelets! Its a leopard printed sliver plated owl bracelet with elastic and metal closures! Its super strechy and would fit any size wrist orginally priced at €8.95 now only €4!

This necklace was spotted by my twin sister! It was orginally €14.40 but was only €7 in the sale. Its quite long hitting the mid chest area and has 12 delicate sliver plated crosses on it! I love this and think its a great find in claires!

This last item is a rose gold, petal detailed flower with a diamonte styled middle! It was only €3 in the sale and is originally priced at €5.95 whcih is a fair enough price. Its a great fit and adjusts for any size fingers! A brilliant buy!

Theres a twist to this haul! I only paid €11, no i didn't rob the shop, but they have an offer on that if you buy 11 sale items its only €11 including all hats, scarves, bags, shoes and jewelery in the sale! I couldn't resist that offer! They had everything in there and only choosing 11 was very difficult! They weren't too clear in the shop about this offer but i soon asked why the hair feathers were €8.50 in a sale and for €2.50 i basically got ten free items! I would recommend anyone to go in there and have a look! Its an offer not to be missed!

Happy shopping :)

Kate
