Auntie Buys : Matching Blue Dresses

Buying clothes is always an exciting thing but when it is for babies and kids it is even more exciting. There are so many cute clothes out there and I could easily get into debt buying the whole store haha. One thing I came across recently is how not much stores have matching clothes for Ava and Bella size and if they have got same sizes, usually they are too expensive or not nice pattern ect. With Ava being a typical 3/4 years old for her 3 year old self but with Bella being really tiny for her 7 months self usually it's impossible or hard to find matching clothes in her size and Ava's. Lately I have been getting her 6 to 9 months but she still in 3 to 6 months. As always it does depend on the store itself, some clothes come up smaller and some come up bigger. 


The other week I was in Boots doing me make up shopping and I saw in the end of the shop that the kids clothes had a sale so of I went to have a look. To be honest there wasn't anything good in the sale and without sounding horrible, I find some of their tops/dresses are abit OTT with their patterns if that make sense. Beth and Tommy dress Bella and Ava in such nice clothes and you just get to know their sort of clothing that suits them if that makes sense so now I have got to know what Beth/Tommy would like. Back to Boots... So I was looking thru the sale area and didn't see anything nice then at the corner of my eye I saw this Blue Dress with Spots and Stripes and I loved the colour. I know Navy suits Bella but this colour blue was an unusual colour that you don't really see around spesh in dresses. I instantly went to pick up the 3 to 4 years old size not even thinking to look at Bella size and then my Mother saw they have 6 to 9 months and I was like OMG I need to get these haha!! I actually got Ava a size 4 to 5 years as the 3/4 years looked tiny so the clothes must come up smaller in Boots as usually a 6/9 months dress wouldn't of fitted Bella. They were £8 each and annoyingly have gone down to £4 HERE in the sale but I do think they are worth the original price as the quality is good. I sent down these dresses in the post as I do love sending them little parcels as I don't see them alot. Also you can't see Ava shoes in this picture but she has on White Converses I brought her not long ago from Very. They are the new All White ones which are so cute and Ava loves her Converses. Bella also has on shoes I got her last week from TK MAXX which were only £3.99 ad came in a little box.


So now Ava and Bella have matching dresses, me and Beth have many matching items so now we need matching dresses for me, Beth and the girls haha.. I wonder if that actually exists? LOL. Also if any of you reading this know of any high street stores or websites that do matching clothes in size 3/6 months and 3/4 years old please comment below or Tweet us HERE as I'd love to find some more matching items for my Nieces.

Boots Bargain Haul/Whats On My Face/Review

The goodies.


So on Wednesday I popped into town after Doctors. My doctors is very close to Windsor Town and seeing as My mother needed to get her prescription we decided to go into town for the morning. Had zero plans to get anything or to spend money to be honest as this weekend Im off to Essex so need money for that. We was in boots as on the corner of one of the aisle we noticed this 90% sale and I was like what 90% is mental surely its not right. They had didn't have much but they had Beyonce, Katy Perry and Union J perfume gift sets and weirdly I fell in love with one of the Katy Perry perfume last year. We asked one of the staff to check the prices at the tills because it seemed abit too cheap. The Beyonce gift sets was £28 to £2.80 and the Katy Perry gift sets one was £30 to £3 and other one was £23.50 to £2.35 how crazy is that!!! My mother got a few and so did I but there was some left I wish I picked them all up. I also got the new Rimmel lasting finish nude foundation which was on offer to £4.99 from £7.99 and also got Rimmel lasting finish primer which was on offer at £3.99 from £6.99 so in total I saved myself £104.55 how bloody mental!! Im going to give one of the Beyonce Sets to Beth  when I see her this weekend (Hope she isn't reading this because I haven't told her haha). I tried the new primer and Foundation today and first impressions Im very impressed, Im going to take both to Beth's this weekend and let her try as she is the same skin type and colour in Rimmel foundations as me so I want to see if she shares the same opinion. I do love Rimmel Face products tbh always have so I knew this was going to be good but Im more than impressed. 

I took a picture of the receipt to prove it haha. 
I opened the Beyonce gift set earlier and was so impressed as its four little perfume spray and different scent so its so handy to put one in my handbag as its perfect size. Good for travel aswel so Im impressed. I hope Beth likes them well I know she likes Beyonce perfect called Heat as so Do I. Going to take one this weekend as Im off to Essex, sometimes it a pain taking the usual size perfume bottles it came be sucha pain in the bum fitting them in your bag as they are always too big so Im glad I got this before Essex so it would take up any space in my bag. 

The Rimmel lasting primer and foundation primer.
Excuse me looking a mess, it was a pjs, bad hair and cleaning kind of day but I wanted to try them. In this picture I got on 

I literally am so impressed, I had bad skin at the mo from being in hospital last week I always get bad skin and from being worried ect but this Rimmel combo is amazing. Btw I need my Eyebrows threaded but I am totally loving the brow drama. Also Im sure if you read blogs you would know and probably sick of hearing about the new Benefit Roller lash mascara but seriously it worth the money and hype. Its AMAZING!! It is everything you want in a mascara, Im deffo sold on buying the full size when it comes out. Im looking forward for Beth to try this to see if she thinks it is good. Her eyelashes are longer than mine but I want her opinion to see if it gives the same effect. 


So that is my mini boots bargain haul/whats on my face/review haha. I'm going to Beth's tomorrow for the weekend so Im looking forward to that. Hopefully we will try and take some pictures because we haven't got alot of pictures of just us for our blog like about us page/blog picture ect. Also if we have time we can write a post together like we use to when we lived together :) But then again we will probably be just laughing like we always do when we are together. Hope everyone has a good weekend :)
