Haul from here and there

Alright, so I went to Sephora as planned yesterday after my final (it was opening June 1st in downtown Montreal) and it was truly insane! I only walked in and through the store quickly, to have a look -- the crowd was so scary that it was impossible to browse the displays calmly. I meant to pick up something but the line looked like quite an adventure as well, so I did not bother. Anyway, it's a very pretty store from what I could see, and I'll surely go again once all the excitement quiets down.


Anyway, today was my first day of summer vacation, but it was rainy and I couldn't enjoy it in the sun, so I opted for a trip to a shopping mall outside the city ;). I decided to share what I bought right away since I never carry out my intentions of blogging my purchases. So there it goes!


I picked up a random body scrub from Bath & Body Works (this is one is the True Blue Spa: Fresh Foaming Body Buff with shea butter) after realizing that Lush's Ocean Salt was waaaay too expensive, even if it's claimed to be amazing. Plus they were giving out coupons for a free product with a minimum purchase of $10, so I went for the Japanese Cherry Blossom Creamy Body Wash. The smell is to die for!


At Zara I found a pair of navy blue flats, perfect for any outfit, and a long white tee. My friends make fun of me because white and black tees are all I seem to wear, but I love the basics!


These two golden studded bracelets have got to be my favourite purchase of the day. I got them at Aldo Accessories and fell in love; they're perfect, exactly my style. 


I'm glad I stopped by Winners as they were reselling the Hunger Games nail polishes! I really liked Smoke and Ashes on blogs, but had to forget about it since I usually cannot find China Glaze polishes here. Post-purchase I can say that the colour is a bit harsh against my pale skin, but it still is a beautiful opaque black with cool-toned shimmer.
Oh, and since there was a Sephora in the shopping mall I was at (and it was much less hectic!) I bought the primer that I wanted from Urban Decay there (their famous Primer Potion in Original).


Et voilà. I hoped you enjoyed your day, rainy or not! xoxo.

    1. Thank you :)! When it comes to flats I love the simple styles, no bows, no lace, and no logos; classic and discrete.

    1. I was really surprised to see them there, since the collection only just came out -- well, not that long ago! Winners started carrying so much great stuff lately.

  5. J'adore les bracelets, tellement mon style également! Sauf que je porte tellement rarement des bijoux que je finis tous par les donner... je sais... -_- J'aime bien les ballerines aussi!

    1. Haha! Je porte très peu de bijoux aussi, et c'est encore plus rare pour les bracelets! Mais ceux-ci m'ont particulièrement plu :)
