BARGAIN OF THE DAY: St Tropez Wash Off Body Lotion

I absolutely swear by this fake tan for bright sunny mornings when I want to wear a skirt and have forgotten to fake tan the night before. I prefer to add a little to my normal moisturiser which stops it looking too unnatural and makes it easier to wash off my hands. Even better, St Tropez Wash Off Body Lotion is on offer on asos.com at the moment for only £6.36!!

Do you fake tan? Which brand do you use?

SALES SEASON: Best Bargain Buys for your festival wardrobe from Warehouse

The summer sales are starting all over the high street this week, so in the spirit of bargain hunting, I will be creating some essential summer outfits:

Today, summer festival outfits, followed by summer wedding outfits tomorrow, and finishing the week off with beach holiday outfits.

Summer festivals, in my mind, necessitate easy-to-wear layers for the unpredictable British summer. Of course, if you’ve been astute enough to book your festival tickets across the Channel, on continental Europe – somewhere like Benicassam, which is happening in Spain right now, you will probably need less layering.

Here are my summer sale bargain best buys for festival chic from the Warehouse sale:

BARGAIN HUNTER: Boots haul

Nothing makes me happier than knowing that I have scored a bargain and my recent trip to Boots afforded me a few reasons to smile:

Currently, when you spend £5 or more in store, you will receive a £5 voucher for Boots No 7. If you don't know what to spend your £5 on, look no further! I was pleased to find the new and improved Stay Perfect formulation in store, with pigment rich colour. And some new bright summer shades, like these three that I picked up:

From left to right: Minty Fresh, Lucky Lilac and Tangy

At £7 it means that you get good quality polish for just £2, with your voucher. Aren't the colours perfect for the summer?

But these weren't the only bargains at Boots this weekend, I also managed to grab a couple of bargainous Ruby & Millie make up tools. According to many an internet forum, Ruby & Millie products are currently 75% off at Boots until the end of June, however when I visited the Boots store on Queen Street in Cardiff, it seems they did not know about this offer!! The Boots store at the Cardiff Bay retail park did have their products reduced (although not until you get them to the till) - so it is worth checking. I got these slant tweezers for £3.32 (normally £13.28)!!!!

BARGAIN OF THE DAY: Marc Jacobs' wish bone necklace

At the end of last year, Suzie of Bargainista Fashionista, wrote about the "Special Items" collection available at the Marc by Marc Jacobs store on South Audley Street in Mayfair. Being a fellow bargain hunter I couldn't resist a sunny afternoon stroll through Mayfair to the aforementioned store when I found myself in London last week. Wherein I discovered some really rather fabulous designer bargains!!

Check out this seriously lust-worthy wish bone necklace - yours (in silver or gold) for just £5!
