LOVING LATELY...

Hi lovelies! Today I thought I'd show you all a few of my favourite things I've bought/ received lately. I love seeing posts like this on other peoples blogs and I think it's often nice to share some of the slightly different things that you wouldn't generally see on my blog.


Something that popped through the post recently was this gorgeous Catseye London* Washbag from their new 2014 collection. Catseye London have sent me items in past and I was just as pleased with this one, fab quality and cute dogs? Perfection.


I absolutely adore this jumper* that was sent to me c/o chicnova.com , I have this in white with orange/yellow flowers, but I much prefer this one. It's a gorgeous blush pink/ peach with pink flowers and the ripped/ distressed effect on the sleeves and hem. I'll definitely try to feature it in a (long overdue) OOTD very soon!


可爱的话题,这些是多么珍贵小鹿斑比slippers? I picked these up in Primark lately for just £4, which was an absolute steal! I love these kind of sock slippers as I'm not really one for full on slippers or feeling like I'm wearing shoes in the house. These are super comfy and soft inside and they have Bambi on them, need I say more?


My sister bought me this gorgeous list book from Paperchase recently, it's nothing too exciting to most people, but I really do love a good list. It's pretty, it's pink, it's made specifically for lists and it has stickers at the back, which pleases me slightly too much. I'm 19, not 9, honest.


Finally, I decided my phone needed a New Years makeover as I've needed a new case for quite a while. As I have a Samsung Galaxy and not an iPhone, it's not quite so easy to find pretty cases, so when I fancy a new one, I always head over to eBay as they have the best selection! The one I got ishere, the seller has loads of designs for several types of phone, which is fab. I loved the pretty shoe design of this one, definitely the prettiest case I've had so far!

What little random things have you been loving lately?

WHAT I WORE TO THE COSMO BLOG AWARDS




Playsuit- eBay
Necklace- eBay
Heels - New Look
Bag - Bank
Extensions -FoxyHair*

Hi lovelies! Today, I thought I'd show you in a little more detail what I wore to the Cosmo Blog Awards. I wassounsure of what to wear and was majorly stressing out! I didn't want to gotoodressy but didn't want to look under dressed either. So, during one of my little eBay window shopping sessions, I cam across thisgorgeousplaysuit for only £9.99! I couldn't believe it! So, this little beauty went straight into my basket. I then decided I wanted to go all girly and add some baby pink accessories, so as eBay had already been so good to me, I went on the hunt for a pink statement necklace. After scrolling through pages and pages of necklaces, I finally decided on this one. It was only £6.99 with £2.20 shipping and as I already had the shoes and the bag - the whole outfit came in at less than £20!! Not bad for someone who was considering renting a designer dress for the occasion! As it was so cheap, I was worried about the quality of this playsuit but it's amazing. It's super well made and it was really comfortable too. I'd definitely recommend parting with a tenner for it if you fancy it!

Another thing you may notice, I had a lot more hair for the evening! I was sent these extensions by Foxy Hair a few weeks ago and I saved them specifically for the blog awards! I used to wear extensions this long almost every day, but eventually got bored of putting them in all the time! That said, these were super easy to put in and looked and felt so natural. They felt super light and comfortable too which was fab.

What do you think? Let me know what you think of my bargain outfit!

MORE EBAY BARGAINS

handbag- £18.99
yankee candle samplers- £1.75-£1.80

Hi lovelies! Today, I have been scouring the wonderful world of eBay again to come up with another eBay bargains post for you all! I just love eBay, you can pretty much type in anything you want and they'll have it! Gone are the days when eBay was full of weirdos trying to sell lunch boxes signed by Weird Al or a tissue used by someone in Boyzone (both things I discovered on the site way back in the day, seriously). Ebay is a treasure trove of gorgeous bargains, perfect for girlies on a budget!

Today, I came across alotof stunning statement necklaces, but this one really stood out to me. I love the design and think the colour is beautiful. This seller carries lots of colours and styles so it's definitely worth a peek! The quality probably won't be high end jewellers standards, but for only £2.19, can you really go wrong? And on the topic of budget fashion, how gorgeous is this shoulder bag? The style, the colour, the price (£18.99, what?!), it's all too much to handle. I just might have to treat myself to this one!

I also went on the hunt for slightly different little things as I've been looking into creating little gift baskets for friends and family for Christmas (the second it's October, it's all I can think about, I'm a child) and I think little things like candles and these pocket antibacterial gels are ideal. These all come in several scents and would make great little gifts (even if it is a gift to yourself).

What do you think? Do you love browsing through eBay looking for bargains as much as I do?

DRESS UP LIKE HIPSTERS AND MAKE FUN OF OUR EXES





Cardigan - Bank
Top - River Island
Skirt - Topshop
Boots -Ebay


What? What?! I'm doing another outfit post? Is this real life? I tell you, this good weather's doing something to me. Sorry for the lack of too much face in these photos, the sun was so bright I literally looked as though I had no face, it was frightening. So anyway this is an outfit I wore out shopping the other day and I just love it. I finally caved and got the denim skater skirt from Topshop, I'd looked at it pretty much every time I went in until my boyfriend Darren (who is my most regular shopping partner), must've got so bored of looking at the same skirt in every Topshop we went in and was like 'for God's sake just get it!'. So I did, and I'm so glad I did! This skirt literally goes with so much and can definitely be dressed up or down depending on what you're doing. If you've been thinking about getting this skirt - do it!

It was really nice to be able to go out in such a simple, summery outfit. This weather's been lovely! I bought this cardigan from Bank the other day and it's so perfect for the summer time. As this is England and we don't have gorgeous sunshine everyday, and then when we do, it's windy. Really windy. So a little jacket or cardigan is essential! I think this one will be great for on holiday in the evenings too as it sometimes gets cooler and if it's even slightly cool/ breezy, I'm going to put a cardigan on, I do not do cold. At all.

Anyway, let me know what you think of this outfit in a comment, I'd love to hear your thoughts!

EBAY FINDS



我一直住在很多躲避寒冷的一个d the snow lately and one thing I've been doing a lot is browsing through ebay. There are so many independent sellers on ebay that do all kinds of lovely things brand new. In one of my latest posts (linkedhere) I mentioned this adorable pink bunny jumper that I tracked down on ebay for almost half price after seeing the exact same one in New Look. I've also been looking around for other things too, the bag shown above is less than £18, which is a total bargain for such a lovely item! I've also been on the hunt for some military style boots as mine are a bit worse for wear these days, although I've found them almost impossible to track down in the shops. I was amazed to find these ones on ebay for only £12.99. I've also included an adorable hanging heart decoration - only £1.70 with free shipping, a cute floral notebook and slightly over the top but gorgeous phone case! The best part is, every item here is under £20!
Every item I've shown in this post is from a UK Seller but obviously there are sellers all over the world. All of the pink words under the photo are direct links to the items.

Do you like to browse on ebay for bargains? What's the best thing you've found?

BUNNY GIRL



Jumper-ebay
Jeans - F&F*
Boots - local store
Necklace - tiffany's
Bag - river island

How cute is this jumper? I found the exact same one a while ago in New Look, but it was £22.99 and I had Christmas presents to buy! So I was browsing through ebay the other day and the jumper popped into my mind, so I typed in 'Bunny Jumper' out of curiosity and there it was for only £12.99! I've linked it underneath the photos if you want to check it out, they have it in grey and beige too. I like wearing pastel colours in the winter sometimes, it makes me feel a tiny bit more summery,even though we've got snow at the moment!

What do you think? Do you like fun jumpers like this?

LADY IN RED


top - primark
skirt - ebay
shoes - primark
奈ls - essie lollipop
bracelet - tiffany's


Told you all I'd steal Daphne Groeneveld's style didn't I? ;) So here's my recreation of the look! Obviously it's not exactly the same as I'm sure her outfit was a little more expensive than the likes of Primark or ebay, but hey, I'm a high street girly without a supermodel budget!
I love love love this look though, it feels so cute and girly but also very simple and interesting. The red makes it stand out a lot, which I love. I often shy away from red but this skirt has made me a little braver I think! You may not have noticed, but I'm wearing this t-shirt backwards, but don't worry, my Mum did teach my to dress myself properly as a child and this isn't a school-girl mistake, I'm wearing it backwards because the t-shirt Daphne was wearing was low in the back and high at the front and I couldn't forlifeof me, find one like it. Then I realised I was a complete idiot and could just turn this one back to front. I think it works, but you'll have to let me know what you all think!

JEWELLERY FAVOURITES #2 BRACELETS


matalan - dorothy perkins - dorothy perkins
dorothy perkins - matalan - topshop
matalan - ebay - tiffany's

Hello everyone! It's time for another jewellery favourites post! I quite enjoy doing these and going through all my jewellery, it was actually pretty hard to choose for this post as I have a lot of lovely bracelets but I managed to narrow it down to my top 9!
第一个是我穿很多,它很漂亮and I love peace signs, it's quite simple and even though it looks very cute on it's own its also great to layer with other bracelets. The next two are ones that it would be great to layer with! I love the gold and pearl colours on these, the cross one is gorgeous, it's so detailed! I love how edgy the spike one is, while still remaining pretty with the feminine pearls.
The mint spike bracelet is an all time favourite of mine, it's cute and sweet because of the colour but a bit tough because of the spikes!
I love this ring/ bracelet from matalan, it's a statement piece without being to crazy and huge, it's simple but it's different and I love that!
The rose bracelet from topshop is actually quite old now but it's lasted very well and I love it so much, it's so simple and sweet, it's the perfect bracelet to throw on with most outfits to make it a little more girly. The crystal string bracelet is so cute, it's another one that looks great layered with others.
This scrabble bracelet is so cute, it's a D because my boyfriends name is Darren, that might seem a little cheesy but I don't care because I loves him!
Lastly, this bracelet from Tiffany's, I got this on holiday in New York last year for my 17th birthday so it means a lot to me! It's so sweet and pretty and I absolutelylovepearls!
So that's it! Hope you enjoyed, have a great day!

A little black dress is (or should be!) an essential item in any girls wardrobe, my little skater dress was from new look but you can find them pretty much anywhere for around £15-£20!
In this post, I've shown several ways that you can accessorize the same dress to make it look different every time and suit any occasion!
My favourite is probably the pink party one but I love and wear all of them a lot!
Sorry for the moody face in some of the photos, some of the smiley ones were so overexposed you couldn't see the colours at all! Also, in 'real life' the colours on 'Pretty Casual' look a lot better together than they appear to, the belt and bag tie in perfectly with the shoes!
I really like doing posts like this, let me know if you'd like to see more of these!
Which is your favourite look?
