School Essentials 2017

Welcome to Charlie Chatter!

About five seconds ago I had a really long nice blog post all ready and about to go up when I accidentally clicked don't save (ARGHHHHH) so now I'm just going to do a small quickie instead while I try to find that post! Instead of me blabbering on about being a completely clumsy-as-heck blogger, I'm just going to show you a quick tour of my annual 2017 school essential bag! (wishing I had pressed save right now...)

For the bag, I wanted something big and stylish, that could fit all of the clutter I've collected over these past few terms. (ALERT**hoarder here ALERT**) I went for a classic Oliver Bonas Letter Wash Bag because it was classy and simple, but is cloth so if you're looking for something waterproof, maybe this isn't the one for you!

At school everyone needs their own signature scent and instead of having another crisp and fresh scent, I wanted something a bit more cozy. Head over to Zara right now and order this lovely wintry scent called Dark Emerald. It blends really well into clothes and skin and stays strong throughout the day. It's such an addictive fragrance and relaxes me so much!

Your hands can get pretty inky and tired at school, so an absolute school essential is hand cream. Last year I wore a lot of Zoella Brand when it came to my hands, but for the new year I wanted something new. The Heathcote and Ivory, Vintage and Co, Fabrics and Flowers Hand Cream is uplifting and summery with a cute floral design. It soothes and softens the skin and makes a great start to the busy day!

How many times have I lost pens in my school bag? Pens are the basic school essential and it is so handy to have a good pack on the go, just in case you don't have your pencil case with you. These black MUJI pens come in a cute pack of 5 and are a life-saver in and out of the classroom. They are so easy to write with and make your handwriting look really neat- which is especially useful when it comes to revision!

It's difficult when writing about school, because I'm not sure what things you are allowed or not allowed to wear. Here's a short paragraph on some school essentials that may be forbidden, so you can skip out this paragraph if you'd like to. First thing is the New Look Pure Color varnish in Candy Pink which is classy yet noticeable. It made my nails look like something out of Barbie and was really easy to put on with a nice finish! Unfortunately, I couldn't find it on the online shop, so down below is a dusty coral (the next best!) In terms of earrings, I had to look around a little bit more, but found the perfect pair in Urban Outfitters. They were small cute hoops in a bold gold, which was super classy and said so much more about me that simple studs. For a great price of four pounds these go-to earrings are so easy to put on, making the really useful!

Those were the basics but I also really enjoyed the Waterstones To do List sticky notes, the Urban Outfitters pack of three face mask, The Great British Breakfast Spotify Playlist, Frends Headphones Taylor in Rose Gold, Folio Book "The Little Princess" and so much more.

I realize I didn't do so much make-up wise, but a new make-up post is coming up!

Lots of Love, Charlie Chatter xoxo
