Summer Essentials Fashion Edition

So I've already shared with you my makeup and beauty summer essentials and today I thought I would share with you my fashion summer essentials.

Now this dress summarises 2 of the things that I love about summer. I love wearing cute dresses in the summer ones that flow and either have a pretty colour or a lovely floral pattern. The second thing that I love about this dress is the colour. I love mint green I am obsessed with the colour. If there is something that is mint green then I have to have it. This dress was actually a charity shop find it was from Topshop originally and when I bought it, it still had the tags on it so it was as good as new. The best part about it was that it was a bargain at £5. 

The next summer must have is sandals. I love wearing sandals as I am able to show off my painted toe nails which always have a bright colour on during the summer. I own many sandals and this picture just shows a couple of the ones I own. I have a peach pair which is from Tesco I love the design of the straps and they were only £3 as I got them at the end of summer last year. They did many colours of them and I also have a sparkly gold pair. I have noticed that they have some similar ones in this year. The other pair are a sort of gladiator with a beautiful peacock style feather on them. I have a gorgeous blue maxi dress that I love wearing them with. I got them from Peacocks a couple of years ago. 

The next thing I love is this mint green satchel style bag that was a birthday gift from my sister. I love the style and the colour of this bag. I also love the pink edging it has around it. The lining of the bag is also really pretty it has a cute floral design. In the summer I prefer to carry a smaller bag and although this is quite small it can fit a lot in it. 

I am not a massive jewellery wearer but I do have a few bits that I love to wear during the summer. I love rose gold and I think it is a perfect colour for the summer. I have my Lipsy charm bracelet which I love. It is a bit like a Pandora bracelet but you buy it like it is with all the charms on it. I got this as a Christmas present one year and I love it. The rose gold bracelet is from Primark and I think it was £1.50. I love the style of it  and I think it looks gorgeous. The spike necklace is from Dorothy Perkins I love their jewellery and they always have amazing bargains in the sale. My earrings where a gift from my friends I love the colour and I think the flower design is perfect for summer. Lastly is my watch, I actually wear this watch all year round but I think it is perfect for the summer it is from New Look who stock some amazing watches. 

Lastly are my sunglasses. I wear prescription glasses which meant I had to get some prescription sunglasses to protect my eyes. I bought these to go to Iceland to protect my eyes from the glare. I really like these which are from Red and Dead but I got them in Specsavers. I really like the shape of these as I find a lot of sunglasses are too big and don't suit my face shape but I really like these.

What are your summer must haves?

Summer Essentials The Non-Makeup Items

Today I thought I would share my Non-Makeup summer essentials as I have already shared my makeup essentials.

I love the Botanics Toning Spritz as it is so refreshing to spray on your face when the weather is hot. I love soft skin for summer and I use face masks to achieve it. I love applying a mask at the weekend as it is so relaxing. The one I am currently using is the Superdrug Simply Pure Face Mask . I usually use a hot cloth cleanser to remove my makeup but in the summer I prefer something lighter and that is why I have gone back to the Simple Makuep Remover this is really light on my skin and removes even the most stubborn eye makeup .

Like a said above I love to have soft skin for summer and I really like having smooth legs as I usually wear dresses in the summer. At the moment I am loving The Daily Smooth Body Butter from Soap and Glory  it smells amazing, it sinks in quickly and is really moisturising. I have been loving Soap and Glory's Pulp Friction Body Scrub this is not the traditional Soap and Glory pink scent (which I love) this has made a nice change to have a different scent. The texture of this is very interesting and is different from other scrubs I have tried. It is really good at removing dry patches and makes my legs really smooth. I use the next product when I'm feeling particularly lazy. The Nivea In Shower Body Moisturiser has changed my life, before I was lazy and often skipped moisturising but this product has changed all that.

For hair I love to protect it from the heat and any other damage that may occur. I have 2 products I wanted to share with you the Aussie Miracle Hair Insurance which I have been using for awhile. I love it as it acts as a detangler as well as protecting your hair plus it smells amazing. The other product is a Strengthening Cream from Herbal Essences new range Bee Strong. This range smells of honey and is meant to strengthen damaged hair. I have used this a few times and it makes my hair really soft and it smells gorgeous.  

Onto scents I love vanilla so the Madagascan Vanilla Flower range from The Body Shop is perfect for me. I bought this in a set which came with a body lotion and shower gel it was in the sale for £12 but I got it for £7 as the sales assistant offered me one that had a slightly damaged box so I got it for less which is a bargain. Thee other scent is by Kate Moss and it is called Summertime. To me this scent just smells of summer it is fresh and I love wearing it. 

The most important product for summer is SPF, I burn very easily so I always pick the highest SPF available. Another essential is after sun lotion in case you do get burnt as it is very soothing on the skin. I use the Nivea one. 

What are your summer essentials?
