Ala Moana Haul.

Hello!
So I just finished a post here where I talked about my shopping adventure, and now I'm going to share what I bought!

First off, I apologize of the quality of these pictures. They're uncreative, terribly lit, and done on an iPhone because my good camera charger has broken for no good reason and I have yet to replace it.

Taking care of that, I'll go straight in.

First up was Lush.

Lush has been one of my absolute favourite shops since I was a little kid. 

Before I could only buy it in australia, which was frustrating seeing as I moved back and forth quite often, but they now have Lush stores popping up all over the place! 

I was pretty overwhelmed when I first entered. I wanted to buy everything and use them all at once.
After much talking to a very friendly employee, I decided on this, which I believe is the Fizzbanger.
They're definitely not cheap here, but for my love of all things body product, I bought it.
It's about $6 for this one bath bomb, but there are cheaper, and more expensive ones.

Next up will be my Nature Republic things.
As much as I wish I could say I brought home a standee, I did not.

I have been craving all things citrusy, particularly orange, and this face mask was just a must have for my never-ending sheet mask collection. (About $1.90)

This. 

The famous aloe gel. 

It's only about $6 and I have literally not stopped hearing about it, so I got one. 

I was super eager to try it out, and busted in to it as soon as I took the picture. 

It definitely smells nice, and it has a lot of advertised uses. 

It did leave a sliiiight tacky feeling on my hands for a little while despite a lot of claims that it doesn't. 

It doesn't bother me much, but to someone who is particularly sensitive about the feel of things, might not like it. 

I've yet to use this for anything except my hands so far, but I'll keep you updated.

Now if you have lived in Hawaii for any considerable amount of time, you will know that there really isn't many houses with bathes.
I don't know why. But there isn't.
After our most recent move (January), we had a bathtub, and I have been dying to get my hands on some Nature Republic bubble bath.
I have yet to use it but again, I will keep you posted!
It had a very nice light floral scent in the store, and I hope it stays on skin.

The hand creams. Ah the hand creams. 

I actually heard about a girl who bought literally hundreds of these just to collect all the promotional Exo cards that used to come with them! 

I have yet to use these but my mum, who has, likes them, and she's very picky with creams, so I'm assuming they're pretty nice. 

As customary, the free samples with my purchase!
I don't remember what that first packet was, something aqua.
The second is a snail solution thing that I am definitely apprehensive to use.
The last is some kind of collagen thing.

Moving on to some things I got at Claire's.

 A wire bun wrap thing made of lace.
Some lion door knocker-like earrings to match a necklace that is exactly the same.
Some faux plug kinda things.
And another little set of lion earrings.

Now for my forever 21 things!
You really cannot see much, and hanging them on hangers doesn't do much either.

This really god damn comfy jumpsuit that I'm sure everyone will yell at me for getting!

A romper with little daisies on it! Also not exactly suited to my body type, but I adore rompers, and this is the first time I've found one that fits.

These were high waisted jeans, and man I do not suit high waisted jeans, however, they made an excellent pair of regular jeans because they covered what a short shirt doesn't!

The last is just an oversized pair of distressed jean shorts.
It's going in to summer here, which means from hot to even hotter.


That was my little haul of the day!
Hope you enjoyed reading it, and maybe even come back for more!
Thank you!

Shopping Day At Ala Moana.

Hello!

It's been a while, but I'm here with a doozy of a post.

I spent the day in Ala Moana and managed a pretty big haul.

It started off with the arrival of a little present from my aunt in australia. 

She bought me this little elephant necklace, and a pair of earrings from an australian brand called Lovisa. 

I adore elephant things and was tickled pink when I saw this. 

Unfortunately I didn't take a picture of the earrings, but I'll definitely bring them out another time! 

I don't know about you guys, but I really like starbucks Lime Refreshers.
They're a little odd to begin with to be honest, but after a little while you get used to it and they're really good.
I'm not a huge coffee fan myself, but the caffeine in these gives me an extra boost.

The first and only clothing place I stopped at was Forever 21, and much to my extreme delight, they FINALLY have opened a F21+ here in Hawaii.
Not only are they big but they're tall too! (tall people, you know what I mean. Short sleeves, high-water pants, stomachs sticking out the bottom of every cute shirt ever, regardless if its a cut off or not..)
I spent ages grabbing almost anything that caught my eye, and the ever-helpful f21 employees constantly tried to give me bag after bag to hold my things.
I eventually relented and a woman started up a dressing room for me.

I tried on lots of things in there, not all of which I took pictures of, but I did take a fair amount.
{{WARNING: ABOUT TO GET PICTURE HEAVY}}
And not necessarily with pictures you care to see!
It's a bunch of pictures of me trying on the random things I grabbed.

 This skirt looked super cute on the rack, and I have been dying for a maxi skirt, just to pair with lazy shirts for those days when I just don't want to wear pants. (Most days)

 These.. Just.... These just weren't working out so great. (Human pastry..)

I unleashed some sass in these but the fit just wasn't tickling my fancy. 

 Again, very cute, not digging the fit.

Sassafras. 

I actually really liked this despite its pastry appearance. It has a little daisy print, and I am obsessed with the daisy/sunflower prints that are around right now. 

My mum really liked this and I almost got it, but in the end it just didn't make the cut. 

Now this, my friends, is a jumpsuit. It was so goddamn comfy, and despite the screams of protest from my mother, I got it. 

Damn right. 

This I really wanted! The size I had on here was just a little too small, so I was going to trade it in for the size above, but alas, there were none. 

As far as random pictures of me trying on things go, that was it! 

I did buy a few items which I didn't take pictures of me in, but I'll post those up too. 

While I was walking around I couldn't help but snap a shot of Sehun's crush, the stunning Miranda Kerr. 

Having been reminded of Exo, I hurried down to the Nature Republic downstairs, where I was met with beautiful posters and standouts. (I didn't take pictures of the standee's this time, because I was one of the only people in the store and although I'm sure the employees are used to it, I didn't want to embarrass myself further. The poor standee's were near decapitated as it was! Luhan, Kai, and Baekhyun. All broken at the neck and a little worse for wear.) 

As far as the shopping trip went, that was all, but I'm going to make another post now about what I bought, which I will link here when I finish.

Thank you for reading!! ^^
