My Spring Haul 2011

Retweet this button on every post blogger
 First of all apologies apologies!!! My internet connection is getting so slow that I just was so annoyed uploading and arggh stopped it *embarrassed* Ok so without promises I am just saying I would post as often as I can :) Secondly, I know summers have started but since I never posted anything here around the spring time, might as well post now right?

First, of all picked up this lovely fake juicy couture wallet. The outside purple fabric is made out of velour and there is a gorgeous golden imprint of the juicy crown with golden studs on it. Juicy is embroidered with baby pink on the side and the side trimming are also in baby pink. 
Bought it for approx $16.5
This is how the inside of the wallet looks like. 'Mad Money' is written on the top in calligraphic writing which makes it look so funky!!



I got this lovely pinkie heels for around $5.5. I got it for so cheap as the leather was kind of getting old (you can make it out form the pics) so the shopkeeper had a sale on only this design which was available in wedges too in pink, brown and black. Anyhow I obviously fell for this!!

This is plastic-straw material clutch in raspberry color (you the dark pinkish awesome shade :D). Got it from jeanswest as I think could be easily paired with a great spring/summer dress. By the way, its super light in weight. Love it specially since its bowy-bowy matching with my heels.

 
Okay now to the beauty part!! I actually got lots and lots of stuff but I will review all of them in detail so will just give you a mini review of very few items I just got and have been using like crazy!!

All products are from Avon. All 4 products are the latest launch here and were been sold for a super cheap introductory price so took advantage right away!!
This is Avon Body Natural Violet & Lychee collection, Avon launched last month just in perfect time for spring. I got the Body Lotion & Shower Gel of 200ml for $4.3 each. Let me tell you if you get a chance make sure you get hold of these lovelies as they smell pure heaven!!! I'm not kidding. The violet and lychee together make such an enchanting fragrance that you would love to use the body lotion every now and then. 
However, there is one flaw - the fragrance hardly last :(

Anyhow, I will do a detailed review later.
 Since my so kiss me.. mini perfume got over, I decided to take this opportunity to get these 2 mini sized sprays so I can take to university everyday in my purse. These are only 10ml which makes it really purse friendly. Got them for $6.8 each. These are the 2 fragrances I got:

Perceive EDP Spray - Has uplifting essences of gardenia,plum, vanilla orchid and sandalwood.
Pur Blanca EDT Spray - Pure white freesia and ylang ylang over a simple blend of peony, rose and waterlily.
Out of the two I love Pur Blanca more, I guess because it is stronger and stays for a longer time as compared to Perceive since its EDT unlike Perceive which is an EDP. Both are extremely sweet and mild to be used daily during springs and summers. I recommend all to try this. You can always ask your representative to give you a sample before you purchase full sized bottles.
However, just one thing about these sprays got on my nerves. I found the cap pretty loose, you can make out from the pic how it kind of hangs and not properly closes. Thankfully, no leakage or such has happened as the cap is tight from the upper part, but still makes me unsure if I closed properly.

Hope you all liked my spring haul 2011!!
