Summer Bracelets

Hello!

So every summer, I gather a little collection of bracelets that I would wear nearly every day of summer. They are all very casual bracelets and if I were to go out for dinner in the evening, I would probably change my jewellery to something a bit fancier. I kind of just decided to share what my summer bracelet collection looks like this year and a few combinations I've been enjoying!

This first bracelet was a gift from my boyfriend and he actually bought me it before summer. This is one of my favourite bracelets and I will definitely continue to wear it after summer, I would also wear this bracelet with a dressy outfit too.

I absolutely love this bracelet and I hadn't worn it much of summer but I definitely will be now! My boyfriend Jack also bought me this bracelet from his holiday from Greece.

I bought this bracelet myself when I was on holiday in Majorca and I'm pretty positive that it was two or three euros. I have a necklace which matches this which will probably feature in my blog soon.

This is another of my favourites. This bracelet was only one euro!!! I got it again whilst I was away in Majorca and I couldn't believe how cheap it was! I thought it looked like something from Accessorize that you would pay at least £10 for! What a bargain!

This bracelet, if you do not know, is a loom bracelet. This is definitely the latest craze for all young children so I decided to buy myself a packet of them and teach myself how to make a bracelet. I really love the colour combination of white, blue, pink and purple!

This bracelet has faded a lot which is really sad because I love it. It is basically one of the typical holiday threaded bracelets but it was multi coloured but as I was in the pool so much and I didn't take it off my whole holiday, it has slightly faded which is so upsetting. It was also super cheap though.

This is another of my favourites as Jack bought me it from Greece. It is one big bracelet that goes around your wrist three times. It's so so pretty and I love it a lot.

Here is one combination of bracelets I like to wear (I obviously don't wear all of my bracelets at once). I really love the pink and blue in this one.

Another combination that I love. The blue bracelet is actually magnetic so it is so easy to get on and off quickly.

And this is the final combination that I am loving. The big spirally bracelet is just so vibrant and pretty.

I am putting all of my bracelets in this little basket where I used to keep my nail polishes but they have been relocated for the meantime. A lot of my bracelets are scattered around my room so a lot of them are missing from the basket!

I hope you all enjoyed this,
Love Ellen xo

What I Bought At Ikea

Hey everyone!

Today's weather was pretty rubbish (as always) so my family and I decided to spend the afternoon in Ikea! I had seen many bloggers and YouTube gurus saying about how they got these beautiful pot plants from Ikea that they use for their make up brushes, so I set out to look for them!

I scanned through the whole of Ikea and I was about to lose hope until I found them in the last section of the shop. The colours were either cream, pastel pink or mint green. I had only ever seen YouTubers and bloggers with the cream ones so I decided to mix it up and get one cream and one pastel pink. They were sooo cheap (only £2 each!!!). They were in three sizes so I went for the smallest size which were quite big anyway!

I really wanted to get the largest size in mint green as well for £4 for my nail polishes but I really don't need it! I already have a beautiful little pot for all my nail polishes, but if my collection gets too big then I know for definite where I will be going to get a larger pot!

In Ikea I also bought two large boxes which I can use as a memory box and put in things like little holidays presents and cinema tickets and basically things which remind me of good times! This was £3 for the two but I decided to give one to my little sister. It was also fun having to figure out how to assemble them too!

Thanks guys for reading, and I hope you enjoyed!xo
