When we were thirteen years old, all we wanted were EOS and Baby Lips lip balms. Then we grew up, we were influenced, and now all we want is a Summer Fridays Sweet Butter Balm.

SUMMER FRIDAYS Lip Butter Balm 15g – Pink Sugar* (£23)

We all love the idea of being the type of girl who wears matching pyjamas, but when it comes down to it, we don’t actually want to spend our hard earned money on something we only wear to bed (especially when your T-shirts are free!).
You don’t need to break the bank here, but you do want to avoid synthetic materials that are uncomfortable to sleep in. A set that’s 100% cotton or linen is perfect (H&M are stocked up with a tonne of great options right now).
