New in!

Hi all! I came home from work yesterday and was OVERJOYED to find a surprise parcel awaiting me! One of my best friends had sent me a little gift from the UK...
How cute is this box?

And the label!
 

OMG this is amaaaazing!!! I love it! She knows me so well!
 
It's really funny because another friend sent me this necklace from the UK last month....well I think it's obvious I love a nice cup of tea eh!? Not as much as I love my wonderful friends!! :)
This week there's a huge import sale on in town. I made sure I ran out of work at 10am yesterday to get there on its first morning! I scrabbled around for cash to pay the parking meter (I never have cash!) and could only park for 20mins so made a mad dash around the sale. This is my haul...

My favourite perfume - G of the Sea. Couldn't get it for hide nor hair the last few months so I ordered two bottles to my address in the UK for my trip home. Now I have two more here!! And I also bought Harajuku Lovers in 'Baby'. They were $60 instead of $100.

I bought three OPI colours - two potentially as gifts for my sisters when I go home (the gold one is MINE though!).
They were just $12 each.
Mascaras....(they can be SO expensive here so I bulk bought!)

Another mascara and some black eyeliners....
And a couple of other bits and bobs.
 Now I just need to find somewhere to store them all!

I also totally splurged on a nightie and pair of trousers on Sunday. Australian designer Peter Alexander does THE most amazing sleepwear. The store always smells amazing too because they light these gorgeous candles -  I've come close to buying a $60 candle on a few occasions!! Help!

I paid $60 for a cotton nightie. Am I mad? Probably. But I do love birds.

And coughed up $60 bucks for these trousers. Also a sign of madness.
But with packaging like this, how can a girl resist?!

 
Do you have any favourite beauty products you bulk buy?

  8. Awesome! that sale sounds great! I love Gwen's perfume too and have bought every edition she's ever done! I was in Superdrug earlier and even saw they've brought out little Christmas edition ones of Gwen dressed up in a Santa Suit as the lid...I'm defo putting that on my Christmas list! Guess what, I just randomly came across a box of 30 slabs of Whittakers coconut chocolate (like you got me before)on ebay so I bid on it and I won the whole thing for £7, what a bargain! I cannot wait to indulge!! x

  9. OMG such a cute ring. Love the necklace too. I wish I bought more things for myself. Unfortunately its been about three months since I bought anything for me. Maybe I will get a chance after the holidays.
    The sleepwear is ADORABLE!
