I literally just pulled this package out of my mailbox and I have to say that I am pretty upset. I had high expectations based on my purchases in the past. This time I am completely blown away and very upset.
The first item is the faux fur open-front grey cardigan. Claims that it is loose-fit and soft touch. For one it is NOT soft at all. Very scratchy and smells really cheap. The smell is very reminiscent of an old warehouse/storage full of beds and clothes.
This is NOT loose-fit at all. It hugs my body in all the wrong places and the batwing is all awkward and feels very uncomfortable when worn.
This is the cable knit loose pink sweater. This one is even worse the first. I opened this straight out of the packaging and it had loose threads hanging from the sleeves and the neck area. The arm was also caught on something too because there is a yarn piece just hanging out. This claims that it is also loose and long sleeve. Both are lies.
I should have figured it was going to be a cheap knock off when I looked at the website photo and they marked out the brand.
As you can see this is very much NOT long sleeve nor loose. It is more of a 3/4 sleeve and the size is more for an adolescent or a teen. NOT at all for an adult.
Sleeves claims to be 67 cm. The sleeves are actually less than 40 cm.
Length claims to be 66 cm. It is just about 40 cm.
I am so upset that there is literally no point of me even sending them back because ROMWE is going to make me pay for return shipping. With that money I'd rather just sell it for the same price I purchased it for and be done with this site!
As of right now I feel like ROMWE was a decent store that just turned into another cheap chinese store that everyone is going to end up hating.

What I purchased from Target
Hey guys! I found two really cute tops from Target. I originally was going to wait for my Romwe order but I can't wait anymore.
Bought this cute Mossimo top on clearance for $8. It's super cute! I'm amazed I actually found a long sleeve top on clearance so early in the season. It's super soft and compfy.
As you can see the top is rather long. I goes well beyond covering my buttocks. It's a little oversized but with a pair of leggings, boots, and maybe a belt...I think this would be the cutest outfit.
This top is also super cute. Grey with yellow stripes, boat neck, and 3/4 sleeves. This top is also long enough to cover my buttocks. I also paid around $8 for this too.
I feel like I haven't shopped at Target in forever. The last time I actually purchased clothes from Target was when I was still living in Wisconsin. Which was about 8 or 9 years ago. Pretty long time but I'm happy to rediscover Target and their clothes!

Hautelook Haul: ILLAMASQUA
Hey guys! Sorry it took a while for me to come back. I caught the flu and haven't been feeling good. I've only been feeling decent enough to go to school and take my mid-terms. Anyways...lets get to it!
Obviously everyone's here to see a haul! I purchased from Hautelook on the 22nd of last month which was Setember and was kind of bummed because I didn't get everything I wanted. I only missed out on one item that I wanted but other than that I was pretty lucky. You have to remember that on Hautelook everything is limited and so is the time of the events. I got on right when the event started and I still didn't get all the items I wanted so if you want something you have to be quick about it. Just a fair warning for those who've never shopped with them.
As you can tell from the title of the post this is a Illamasqua haul. Normally, Illamasque is a pretty high end brand. Not something I would normally purchase from. However, thanks to Hautelook they made this super high end brand a decent price to where I can justify purchasing.
The first item I put in my cart is the Complement palette. It has three shadows and one liquid metal. I honestly have no idea what the liquid metal is used for but I'll figure it out.
~>The only liquid metal in this palette is the brown shade called Focus. It does not appear to have any glitter chunks.
~>Slink is a champagne shade.
~>Forgiveness is the medium matte violet shade.
~>Queen of the night is the deeper satin purple shade.
Retail price is around $38 dollars for this palette alone. Through Hautlook I paid only $25.
I purchased Delirium because I couldn't find Heroin. Turns out Heroin was on Hautelook I was just in too much of a hurry that I didn't see it until after I already made my purchase. Originally this is about $20. I paid only $14. I was hoping that it would be similar to Heroin but its a little bit more mauve-y and obviously its a cream. I was planning to try using this as a contour but as of right now...I think I may only be able to use it as a blush and a base for my eye makeup.
I wanted to try out a powder blush so I picked Thrust. Its a bright purple-pink shade. Very reminiscent of that radiant orchid shade from a few years ago that was very popular.
Since I purchased a powder blush I decided to pick up a cream blush. Laid is a bright mid-toned pink with kind of a purple base. I don't know how to describe it, it's pink but there's definite hint of purple. Obviously, I feel like my camera isn't catching this blushes true color.
On the website these two looked completely different. But in hand they look very similar. Even my camera seriously can't show how similar/different they are. They are both originally around $24 and I paid only $12 for the creme blush and $14 for the powder blush.
The last makeup item I purchased is this Gleam Highlighter/Illuminateur in the shade Aurora. It looks very similar to Becca's Shimmer Skin Perfector-Spotlight in Opal. It's not as warm. It's on the cooler side with like a gray base. I'm not sure exactly how I feel about it as of right now but I'm kind of stuck it. The highlighter is normally $28 but I only paid $14.
In total my purchase price was at $106.50. Because I spent over $100 I got free shipping and normally I don't pay taxes because we don't have a Nordstrom Rack in my state. If you would like to check out Hautlook click HERE FOR AN AFFLILIATE link and HERE if you don't want to use my affiliate link.

I also purchased this one lonely brush. It is the Blush Up Brush which is originally $40. I paid only $20! It's nice and dense but I don't think I'd use it for a blush. I think I'd rather use it for contour because it's so dense.
The last item I purchased to get my total over $100 to get free shipping, I grabbed this polish. This is Jo'mina. Its a pretty paler lilac shade. Most of the time I can't do shades like these but I wanted to try it out anyways. If it doesn't work out...at least I purchased it on sale and not full price. This polish is originally $18 and I paid $7.50. So yes, I do justify purchasing this polish because it's right around drugstore polish prices.In total my purchase price was at $106.50.

I'm back!
Phew, it definitely has been a long time since I've been on here. I'm sorry for taking so long to get back but with moving multiple times, going back to school, and not having internet because of "not enough capacitors for our area" I have finally made it back to blogging. It might be a bit slow to begin with so please bare with me through these tough times. Currently I am taking five courses so I might take a little time to adjust again. Hope to see you guys soon!
