SUNDAY VLOG | Come to Homesense with me & my 2024 reading book list

[Music] it's been you all along but I've been too caught up to see you baby we can have [Music] it if I just could get morning guys a long time no speak I know it's only been a week for you guys but for me like real time I only skipped one video but because my birthday Vlog was kind of pre-filmed I've had a good solid maybe like 10 days of no work basically just recharging recuperating if you missed my Instagram you won't know that I have had Co so happy birthday to me pretty much as soon as my birthday finished I was like and I was like why am I feeling like this I'm just had a cold in December surely I'm not getting another one and I was right it wasn't a cold it was full body aches um as well as congested and just splitting headache really sore thr persistent cough all the signs and symptoms that is co I have had it once before and it was prevaccine so sorry I'm just going to do my hair while to chat to you guys it was prev vaccines and it was on Christmas we had it we were just about recovering on Christmas Day I remember both myself and Tom in 2020 Christmas 2020 yeah must have been and wow that was horrendous I'm not going to lie I know a lot of people had it much much worse so I can't complain but we were really poorly and this time it was like all the same symptoms but almost like they came and passed a lot quicker almost like my body knew what it was doing immune system antibodies kicking in straight away knowing what they're fighting I did at one point go to the doctors and I never go to the doctors but I just thought to be honest at first I didn't think it was Co I thought it was some kind of infection that I would be able to just get antibiotics for to to help kick it but uh but yeah no she said no antibiotics for this I'll give you like a nasal spray thing and just keep with the lumps in the Paras more but she said Co is going around could possibly be that or an RSV respiratory sinus virus no idea if that's what that means but I have just made that up and if that's right then Pat back to me but yeah some kind of viral thing that I had but that I just had to literally rest that was my main piece of advice so that's what I did I did take a covid test as soon as IID had that doctor's appointment came straight back positive so I was like right well that is what it is at least now I know and I know that in order to get better I just have to rest which is exactly what I did so apologies for missing an upload I know you guys will understand and even now to be honest with you I'm not I'm not fully back to where I was before but I'm definitely a whole other person I've I've got a little bit of energy back oh no a lot of energy back let's face it um just not my full blown energy and I'm still doing that a little bit but apart from that we're all good and I've just felt very you guys know I like my home but even I have felt like a bit of a a bit too much of a Hermit I was missing not getting out on walks with Barney um I had him in like daycare a couple of days my mom walked him a couple of times and so yeah I was quite eager to get back out walking with him fresh air and that's what I've been doing other than that nothing so I've managed to binge loads of new TV TV things started the traitors which is just my absolute all-time favorite um I'm already predicting the winner being Harry if you're watching not Harry if you're watching if you guys are watching the traitors um my prediction is that Harry will win in fact by the time you're watching this there will be a new episode out so I hope that he's not he's not um he's not gone it's annoying that I can't just binge the full lot or at least it be on every week like love Islanders every day of the week apart from obviously Saturdays you've got to wait Wednesday Thursday Friday it's clever how they do that but it really makes me look forward to it each week so yes that's what I've been doing guys apologies for the absence I'm literally just putting a few little curls I washed my hair last night so without styling at all sometimes I feel like it just looks a bit flat or not even flat but just a bit frizzy almost so I like to just add a little a little curl that will last me until I next wash it just um even though I've not got or anything today my plans for today so that you guys know what's coming up in this Vlog is a fairly chilled one bit of a catchup a um trip out to home sense and TK Maxx they've got all the final clearance bits in which you guys know I can't resist so we're going to go have a look there at some point and the main thing on my agenda is to get my wardrobe filming room SP face emptied because in a couple of days I'm having some carpet Fitters come and pull back the carpet so it has to be empty by then and then a couple of days after that I've got Hammond coming which I'm so excited for to fit my new fitted wardrobes in there so it's going to be like a wall to wall I'll do a whole like transformation video I'll show you exactly um what I have done and we can do a bit of a wardrobe organized clear out declutter type video very soon that will be coming so yeah really excited for that so that's on my agenda today I need to I've got a px wardrobe in the in the minute from Ikea who's that and so what I think I'm going to do is just use the spare bedroom as a bit of a Dumping Ground for until the new wardrobes are built so I'm going to empty the Wardrobe and then when the carpet Fitters come just ask them politely to move it for me be a helping hand and just move that for me and then um there's drawers in there as well so I think I'm going to empty those out and again get the carpet Fitters to move them for me and then that's it oh I've got the mirror as well where am I going to put the mirror I have no idea might even just temporarily have to bring it in here or something but yeah so that is my main focus for today um otherwise I I hope you guys are all well I hope no one else has been suffering this start of the year I feel like it's just one of those things isn't it whereby January new year new May and everyone's on it and the pressures almost I feel like a lot of people this year seem to just be taking January a bit slower that's one thing I think Co taught us in the lockdowns is how precious our time is and how we really benefit as humans from a break and from that kind of reset and when we will forced to be at home and forced to not do anything and to not go out and to just literally think what we're going to do with our time let's think of things that I've either wanted to do I enjoyed doing whether that be a new hobby a new learning a new instrument language whatever it was it was a chance for us all to just kind of reset recoup and recharge and I feel like this January I've kind of been forced to do that but I'm quite grateful that I've had that opportunity so yes I've made some few goals and targets and resolutions and all of that kind of stuff but more so without the pressure and more just as intentions kind of using jany to set my intentions I mean there's a reason that the world works the way it does in terms of the weather you know March is the sort of time that we expect New Beginnings we start to see the snow drops come out you know the new blooms start coming out and that's the kind of time for fresh beginnings new start and instead we should rather than Doom and Gloom throughout January and February just use that time to just set intentions have a slower paste month or two to just yeah reset and recharge so that's my little message to you guys as well that if you feel like you need this time to just set back and just have a break then do that whether that be a break from drinking a break from um socializing a break from I know we can't all have breaks from work that would be the ideal but you know in your free time that you do have to just take things a little slower you know get out in nature and just move your body fill your body with nutritional goodness while still having leftover Christmas chocolates so yeah anyway that's me done for brief very brief um refresh of my hair after I've washed it but I'm not doing anything in particular I mean to be honest with you when I get going with organizing and stuff I end up throwing my hair up on top of my head anyway I'm just going to run some oil through the ends and a little touch of hairspray and that's me all good to go went for a lovely walk this morning with bar had a little Costa breakfast and I feel like now that I'm ready for the day ready to get going with starting to clear out that room first and foremost I think if I make a start on it I'll definitely feel a bit more on it you know okay so I thought I would just show you what we are looking like in this um room before any work gets started so in terms of inside the wardrobes and what I need to empty out I feel like the best way to do this is going to be to empty the entire contents of the Wardrobe into just like into the spare bedroom for now um and then I might just have to get them to help me to just shimmy the Wardrobe this wardrobe out of the way even if I just kind of put them over to this side that should give them plenty of space to be able to pull the carpet back and to allow them to build the wardrobes in here here then these drawers as well I'm going to have to move so again because they are full they're quite heavy so I'm going to empty each drawer out into its own bag just so that everything's really easily um able to sort of go back into the drawers once we've move them to wherever I'm going to move them and yeah a couple of bits down here these like spare bedding and stuff that I've had for when we've had people stop over that can all go into backpacks and storage and within that process hopefully we'll have a chance to have a bit of a clear out as well I didn't have one or sorry I did have one not too long ago so there shouldn't be too much to get rid of but just to be able to have a bit more space and for me to be able to see everything a bit more I will just before putting things back into the new wardrobes I will just go through and see if there's anything that I do want to get rid [Music] of I've been run of my life blowing smoke everywhere around I've been searching I can't seem to findone that can hold me through the night I was just about to head downstairs but I'll just show you quickly what I have left today in this room it's very bare we literally just have wardrobe mirror and these drawers to empty everything else has been taken out now I have a PR package there and some aboc cromie bits that have been delivered so I'm going to show you those in a bit I'll show you those later on but yeah I'm just heading downstairs now that I've done all of those bits just have a breather what I was saying about just pause take things slower in January so I've done that kind of stage one we'll do the Wardrobe next and just that should be fairly easy I'm just going to take actually my vitamins for the day as well as the kind of like vitamin I'm not going to go into it too much cuz you guys know I work with my vitamins usually I do still have the discount code with them free if you did want to use it you can get I think it's throughout January it's like up to 70% off with that code so use it if you haven't already but I'm going to take these which I don't think I've shown you these before these are the multivitamin jelly beans you get three different flavors and me being me I'm like well I've got to have cuz three is the the sort of like size I've got to have one of each flavor so got Apple raspberry and orange um so yeah I'm going to have these use that discount code if you want I'll leave a link to them below if you want to uh try my vitamins out and oh I was going to say as well um whil we're on the topic of Health as wealth whil we're on that kind of topic I mentioned something on my Instagram which I thought I might as well mention it here on YouTube because I appreciate not everyone follows me on Instagram um if you would like to though it would be much appreciated but if you don't have Instagram then you will have missed I'm working with my orthodent orthod dentist orthodontist who did my invisaline which I paid for and everything I was a paying customer but chatting to him about what I do and he was like i' be interested in maybe giving you guys an offer so I've kind of teamed up with him over on Instagram but wanted to mention it here so that you don't miss it but um basically if you call Un quote Freya on booking there's loads of stuff you can get it's the free 3D scan so you can see like before and afters they do like the I don't I'm not sure the name of the device that they use but really cool 3D design thing um you get the free whitening at the end hello gorgeous boy keeps nudging me to stroke him you get three free whitening at the end which is like usually 350 quid you get three sets of Vera I think they're called the retainers at the end which is like what I'm on now to sleep in you get them free they're usually like 5 600 Quid um what else do you get you get £50 off any offer they're currently running and I think this month if you see on the website it's literally like a grand and a half worth of savings so well worth booking in and quoting Freya if you wanted to try Invisalign and you're in the Harrier otley or needle region so yeah thought I'd mention that but the the reason why I'm kind of brought on to that is for anyone that does have Invisalign or retainers that you either struggle to keep clean or you want an easy foolproof me foolproof method of doing it I saw the recommendations of this it was Lisa my friend Lisa on YouTube she has just started her revisign journey and she I saw that she bought this and I thought this it's going to be perfect for my little sleep retainers so it uses it's called The Dental pod from zma Dental so I'll let you guys know how I get on with it but you fill up with the solution in there and it uses like ultrasonic something or rather yeah the ultrasonic cleaning machine to help clean your retainers so anyway I am going to what am I going to do now we actually just show you that neon PR parcel that has just arrived because I feel like it's perfect timing with the New Year cuz I have had a sneak peek as to what's inside so let's go get that so I've moved these two actually these were in my filming room I've po them down here for now which I actually quite like so who knows they may be staying there they're from Robinson's Interiors if you were interested and then the contorted Hazel I got from a friend who is a florist the en CO's florist if you wanted to ask her if you wanted any contorted Hazel is what it's called but anyway yes so I've got my little neon package that I wanted to open up with you and it's kind of like in celebration of the new year with their well-being Discovery collection and by the founder brand new book it's called the four ways to well-being so this leads me on to something that I asked on my Instagram at the start of the Year about um any book recommendations cuz I wanted to compile a 2024 book reading list of books are on that list I really want to read I wasn't even going to share this but a few of you were saying oh my God I would love to know what your reading list is so I will share that with you in just a second more energy better sleep less stress and mood boost which I guess is all around based around the scents that she uses so it looks like quite a nice easy read with different um sort of chapters and breakdowns imagery even so with a little bookmark I'm going to pop that in there and give that a read at some point but with that they have also sent me their wellbeing Discovery collection which is so kind of them because I love neon products my smell's just about coming back so I feel like it's a good time to start using these now and oh yeah the happiness one um is so nice this the happiness candle you got the perfect nights sleep Mist which I actually have this on the go at the in our bedroom might pop that one in the spare room actually and then the real luxury magnesium body butter scent which is the scent to distress with lavender Jasmine and Sandalwood and apparently magnesium is really good for anxiety sufferers so if you particularly suffer with that or you get stressed and anxious quite easily to have like magnesium bath salts magnesium supplements which I do have some from my vitamins as well well um they're all beneficial to Zen so that kind of makes sense with it being the scent to D stress and also lastly the super shower I've just noticed I've broken one of my nails so ignore that if you saw that um the super shower power body cleanser this sounds like my kind of scent spearmint Rosemary and Eucalyptus amazing and then that yet will lead me nicely onto my 2024 reading list the one that I'm current on now and this is kind of my aim throughout this year rather than having to get through all of these books by a certain time like a book a month or something like that which it's quite nice to set a goal like that but then it doesn't become a chore but it becomes more like I haven't read yet today and then it's on your mind I just want to constantly have a book on the go and I think if by doing that I will naturally get through a lot of these books within my list so yeah the first book is actually one that I need to finish this is the Britney Spears the woman and me I'm about a third maybe just over a third of the way through that one Britney spares was the thing and there were things in that already that I'm like no way I had no idea that that happened um it's kind of a bit of a poignant read I will say that but anyway other books within my list I have quite a lot of kind of self help type books or non-fiction hang on fiction non-fiction yeah non-fiction books why did that just anyway um but I find I get through fictional books quicker so I definitely want to add more fictional books onto my list but nonfiction I have the Manifest dive deeper I've read roxxy's first book manifest which is the orange covered one and loved it so I feel like I really want to do oh okay there's like little exercises and stuff you can do in here this why I like her books as well you can literally get pen to paper and just have a good jot down so that's on my list I also have this which I bought a while ago and just haven't picked it up yet but I've have seen quite a few people um talk about this it's called 101 essays that will change the way you think so again because of it being broken down into all of the different essays I feel like it's quite an easy read to just go to and from you you don't have to read it page to page before moving on to another book you can kind of have this alongside another book another book that I started and haven't finished I'm actually only like a quarter of the way through this this is like another self-help type book breathe in breathe out and it's essentially Sunday Times bestseller of um I think this was sent to me in a PR package as well actually it might have even been neon I can't remember but I really enjoyed it and I just want to keep going with it but it's different kind of breathing techniques and methods to help keep calm help to with like meditation different exercises and also learning about you and your breath style realizing or starting to read that book I'm realized very much so that I am a very shallow breather which is um very common for anxiety sufferers so even just by switching out my breathing I'm relaxing my shoulders dropping my shoulders like sends the certain things to my brain to make me relax so even just by changing the way you breathe can have a huge effect so anyway that was one that I had on my list that I still want to continue um I also bought this one towards the end of last year which I haven't started yet I don't want to have too many on the go you know I quite like to I'm a checklist kind of person I like to get something done before I move on to to the next thing so this probably will be in a few months time I probably get around to reading this but the Diary of CEO Steven bartler love his podcast so really want to give that a read then a couple of fictional books I have here in front of me this one the family upstairs I read I want to say like when it first came out a couple of years ago whenever it first came out um this or whenever everyone was talking about it anyway and then she's brought out the family remains which is like a follow one which I'd quite like to um read Because I did enjoy the family upstairs and then another Lisa Jewel book The none of this is true her lies could kill you this was a Costco patch so I can tell by the label two women two stories which one do you trust who knows it's 1111 I also have on my list of books to read let's have a look Colleen Hoover loved her books last year in 2023 read a couple I read the it ends with us and it starts with us and then was there another one that I read Verity loved Varity so there is another one called too late that is meant to be quite good let me know if you've read it and what you thought and then also another kind of Thriller that genre that I love that I've heard good things about is a book called The housemade so again let me know if you've read that and if you enjoyed it and then a couple of other things that I've seen floating around on social media and online of being highly reviewed not a typical book I would go for but the whole point of reading I think anyway and the fun of it is by sometimes dipping a toe out of the water of what you would ordinarily read and just trying something new and potentially being pleasantly surprised by enjoying it so lessons in chemistry is one and the Seven husbands of Evelyn and Hugo before I believe it's coming out in Netflix on Netflix unless if it already has I don't know without further do I'm going to pop these books back away and get going with the Wardrobe let's go get on with that before heading over to home sense for a couple of hours I love a home sense trip anyone else oh I'm so excited I feel like it's been too long since I've been to home sents right I'm going to pop these in my bookshelf and head back upstairs then open up my eyes if you're gone I'll take it as a sign but if you stay then baby homeade time and send me off with the words of a LOL the words of send me a with the words of a l I've been trying to make sense of it all looking for signs in the stars but it's been right in front of me this whole time and believe I didn't see the light hello puppy hello gorgeous boy did you miss me when I was out you always miss me you're a cutie anyway guys I'm back home I was going to say welcome back definitely not welcome back to the channel um I'm back home and I have as you may be able to tell a new addition so I picked up this table I've been after some kind of set up here in this little Gap just to be able to maybe pop a lamp pop a candle maybe a nice display book or something on there and I didn't want it too big because I want the flexibility of being able to move it around if needs but it kind of looks a bit mushroom like but it is a solid wood table it was 79.99 obviously from home sense and I really like the texture to it it's not too perfect which I like you can see all the like little knots and grooves and this kind of like little section here I don't I just really really like The Rustic kind of finish to that so I am really happy with it it does look maybe a tad small for the space but once I've got a little lamp on there and I've styled it up little coaster for a drink that's all we kind of really need there I might even do like a floor lamp here maybe instead yeah that is my latest home sense Edition I'm going to show you a couple of other bits that I got as well not too much I will admit the final clearance they had loads of it but I'm a real Bargain Hunter and I like it when they have a few reductions to the point where they end up being um like things for like less than a pound like 70p 60p that kind of thing so I'm going to go back again soon hello Bonnie oh you're kind of in the way of the camera oh yes sign C gave him a bath last night and he smells amazing I used the Whey shampoo fur baby it's called it's so nice you don't smell a wet dog anymore you smell of way Posh Pooch you're Posh Pooch you Posh Pooch you are aren't you anyway I'm going to hold off going back to the going back to home since TK Max when will not hold off let's face it I'm probably going to be going there every day for a while just to see the final clearance bits things that get um reduced even further so you get the real bargain Bargains and um even TK Max as well with the clothes cuz they had quite a few it was almost too much do you know what I mean you know when they have too many things I was like oh I'll come back another day but I did pick up two things from the final clearance they're the same but I found these at £130 reduced from £3.99 so again 130 it's like not mega mega when they get these yellow stickers just you wait these sort of things will be reduced to like 10p but there were only two of these and I wanted to pick them both up because they are glass cleaners and I thought they'd be really handy to have for my mirrors cuz my mirrors get Dusty if I'm doing like outfit pictures and stuff I quite often will take a photo of an outfit in a mirror and then not end up posting it because I'm like the mirror was Dusty you can see flexs of dust on like if I'm wearing something black or dark so just to have one in the kitchen for that mirror and then in my filming room once obviously it's back in order with the mirror in there um and you basically one upstairs one downstairs and that's that and then I also picked up a notebook because my notebook that I use for like my just my box standard notebook that I just jot down for all like kind of prep for videos things that I want to get done to-do lists that kind of thing that I do most days um I thought I would just pick up a new one because I'm on the last few pages of my previous one this one was $6.99 and then you can pop like the little date up there which I always tend to do as well with my to-do list I always like to know what date I'm on and yeah it's just a really nice simple notebook I thought that looked lovely now I got this book and there was only one of them and I thought in the kitchen somewhere or even just to have in like the recipe book cupboard but my camera just cut me off that I don't know what happened but anyway I was just saying this book I thought would look lovely in the kitchen however there's a little Mark on it which was a little bit annoying and I said is there any that You' got that are full price that I'm happy to pay for but without the mark and he said no but we can reduce it it was 22 he gave it to me for £10 so I thought you know what I'm going to take that and and just ignore the fact there's a little Mark on there it's a kitchen book recipe books tend to get a bit grubby anyway okay last but not least last purchase that I made so far and definitely one that I'm going to keep my eyes peeled for another one of these in like maybe a different home sensil TK Max but it's this gorgeous wooden square frame but the actual image obviously it's got this like pass part two in the image that you put inside isn't Square cuz I know a lot of prints and stuff that you can buy online it's quite hard to find square ones so I I like the fact that it's a square frame I also love The Rustic kind of finish to it it's quite textured again like I was saying with that table it's not too like perfect and pristine it's also really nice dark wood color that I love um so I have actually ordered a print from a brand called Trove prints who I follow on Instagram and they do the most beautiful like oil like matte finished prints from original oil artwork that just looks so beautiful I've ordered one for that if it arrives and I like it when it arrives I'll show it to you um then I might order some more smaller ones for like styling and shelves we've got some photo frams but I think it's quite nice to have a couple of photos of us but we don't have loads so it's also quite nice to have some prints and artwork instead so anyway that's my little mini homesteads haul stay tuned for essenti more cuz more trips are probably incoming especially with the final clearance in the stores um yeah I have just a few other things that I was going to take you upstairs to show and that is from abuan fit which actually ironically is what I'm wearing today so I'm going to do a bit of a try on with you and share with you the bits that I did get in fact there was something that I bought on Tik Tok shop which the reason why it's like from abber cromby that I'm thinking of mentioning this is because it's in here somewhere um Abbi don't do return labels pre-printed which is incredibly annoying when you have something to return and you don't own a printer Tik Tok shop I saw that they sell these like mini printers which are perfect because you get you get normal paper and then you also get sticky paper so you can use one of those sticky paper rolls print an image Direct from this printer onto the sticky paper and that should returns label so now I have my own little Gadget to do that genius anyway let's get these open and share with you I'm going to get everything out of its packaging first firstly outfit of today is this jumper from Abu crumbi I'm not sure if they'll still have this if they will I'll leave it linked along with the other rubberie bits my typical sunde attire outfit um Lululemon leggings no I tell a lie these are the Lulu Lemon Juke leggings the Amazon more affordable ones so I'll leave both link to the Lulu which are my fave Amazon very very close Duke but I'll leave the specific ones linked so that you know which ones to get and then just some little socks from a r called Eline Eline okay this is the first outfit I have to share with you from applean fit I have to say unboxing everything I've realized how many Basics I have stopped stopped up on especially their t-shirts I love them but before we jump into the basics I thought this would be a really nice all of these were like sale finds as well by the way and I think they had like extra discount off the sale price so make sure to check that out um but yeah I thought this would be really nice for summer so very ahead of the game with this one and this is like a beautiful kind of off-white creamy color it's a one shoulder top and then then matching bottom they are two piece they are separate so you can mix and match the only thing is I've got both in a medium and I feel like the bottoms were a bit too big for me so I mean the Top's a bit baggy as well to be honest with you but I feel like the top I would keep in a medium cuz I wouldn't want it too tight around my waist um but I do like the length of these so I'm not sure whether to maybe see if they've got a small or stick with the medium cuz there's no draw string you can't tighten them okay next up I've got a pair of jeans which I feel like aboc cromie are known for these are in the curve love range which I think definitely helps if you are like me bigger around this area and then smaller waist and you struggle with that like Gap at the back of jeans these are a 28 and they do fit but I do think like I'm like in between a 27 and a 28 so if I go 28 curve then usually it's a pretty good fit so yeah these are like a medium wash um these are also in the short length so I have some that are the regular that are a bit longer but I thought I would go for a short like these ones so that I can wear them with like trainers and they just kind of sit on my ankle um and then I also grabbed this McLaren te because McLaren through and through I feel like ever since Daniel Ricardo was team McLaren and then Lando Norris watching the Formula 1 on Netflix I just feel like I'm a McLaren girl you you know so yeah the fact that they brought out these McLaren teas and sweatshirts I was like I'm just going to grab one grab one for for a bit of fun and I really liked this one they had some like with different colors but this is obviously just very neutral and bit of a graphic tea I've also got on actually under this this one of these bretts that they do really sort of seamless and super soft so I picked up a couple more in um like a chocolate brown kind of color again goes with most kind of neutral Tops This these are in a medium I get and then I also picked up the Black Version I like them because they don't have any clust at the back so it's just slip on super comfortable they do have removable padding which I usually tend to wear the first time and then by the time they've gone through a wash just leave the padding out but yeah I also like the fact that they have adjustable straps at the back and also if you can see this little clasp here for any racer back tops you have the option to do that that with it as well so super super handy basic to have these ones so yeah I have pretty much every color next up I have this kind of crossover top it is because of the crossover it is a little bit cropped I mean it sits just kind of on top of these jeans but really nice fabric quite thick um but also super soft as well so this one I got in this kind of neutral beige color but they had it in black as well which I was very tted for and I think maybe another color I'm not sure oh and I got this one in a medium I've got a load of basic te's to share with you but before I do I thought I'd just show you these two little crop tops that I got as well kind of like bretts they are ribbed and they are super super soft but very seamless so again adjustable straps that's the back of them I wear them in a medium and good for just wearing under like basic teas of which I have a few to share with you this first one in a large is called their baby tea which is a bit more fitted obviously I did get a large though um and it's a little bit more cropped I've got a few of these already not in Black though so I thought I would get a black one as well but really good for wearing with high-waisted jeans joggers whatever it may be if you just want that kind of cropped top without it being like loads of mid drift on show then these are the perfect length for that let me just get this right this one is um the soft Essentials which I also picked up in Black and it's very similar to the baby tea except it's just a little bit longer it's more of like a standard t-shirt length so this one is in a large there's no real need to size up in these but I do have a couple already that are more fitted that's the only reason why on this occasion I've sized up a bit um and then I have the exact same in a large in the black and then I also have one other black and gray tea but these ones are slightly different this one is not from the soft Essentials but just the essentials and I would say it's still just as soft um but and it's a bit more boxy as well but it is um just a little bit thinner and that's already in a small so that's definitely more oversized that one this is called the easy te in an extra large so is very oversized this one in highight this one's actually probably a bit too big I don't know if this was men's or not I can't remember but yeah much more boxy and oversized it would be all right actually if I wanted to have a leggings and t-shirt day where I wanted the T-shirt a little bit longer um but yeah that is probably I I think I'll still keep it cuz I do love my Basics like this but I probably don't need to get an extra large in the easy te I'm assuming the easy te means more boxing oversized naturally yeah this is what this one looks like got a couple of jumpers to share with you as well knit jumpers good for this time of the year and with them being on sale as well so yeah this one is in a medium I think they called it like a funnel neck jumper or something and I wasn't sure with it being the high neck if it would be a little bit itchy but it's not feels lovely it is like high neck like that without being too much of a thick roll neck and I love the side slits again these kind of jumpers with the length of them I think are really nice with leggings as well I also quite like them with layered um above a shirt so you don't see the color of the shirt you can just pop the sleev of your shirt out and then you just get through that slit again a little bit of like white a crisp white shirt underneath again I feel like that's very like old money style isn't it layering the cashmere with the white shirt U yeah this is what this looks like this one is in a medium and last but not least probably my favorite combo that I've picked up from this haul these trousers which I'm definitely keeping I've had them in the past and had like the wrong it was either waist or length I can't remember but this for me is perfect these are the Sloan trousers they do them in loads of different shades I think actually the ones that I bought before which I returned they with a lighter like neutral color whereas this one's more of like the deeper beige which I think suits my skin tone a bit better so anyway these are in a 27 regular length which are just long enough I would say to be worn with Flats so whether that be sling back pumps whether it be chunky trainers um sandals whatever but they just about graze the floor with me and I'm 5' 5 um in the regular length so if you want them shorter than that if you're shorter or if you want them like ankle length or if you want to be able to wear them with heels just know that you can pick the long and the short options um and then the waist again I've gone for the curve love range which is perfect for me and this time in a 27 and because they've got a little bit of stretch on the back I would say the jeans stay true to size size up whereas these stay true to size or size down um and then I've paired it with one of the soft Essentials te's this time in white so I picked up a white one as well and also this is a medium so this one shows you what it's like when it's a bit more fitted sorry I've got that chocolate colored bra on still if you can see that I would just wear the neutral option and then last but not least throwing over the top just over my shoulders I picked up this knit which is so soft honestly Guys these are just then knits are so nice so I did get this in an extra large again for me o oversiz of my knitwear is better because I prefer to wear them uh with leggings than anything else um and these are nice and oversized for me um these are definitely long enough or this jumper on me is definitely long enough to wear with leggings but um yeah even just worn with nice trousers like this i' probably if I was going to do that though size down to maybe like a medium or something not size down just like stay true to size um but this is what kind of looks like just to give you an idea with these trousers maybe in the black the salones in the black which I do actually have so yeah maybe that could be a nice little outfit to wear um for a more comfy relaxed look that's a little well looks a bit dressier but feels still feels very relaxed and cozy but anyway this is my final couple of pieces that I got from ABAC cromie I feel like I'm going to finish off this Vlog here I feel like there's been plenty of content and I don't want to make it too long and I
