Ice-Cream Accessories.

Blue Bag ASOS; Lilac Heels ASOS; Blue Bow Shoes New Look; Mint Bag New Look. 

Oh me oh my. It's ice-cream colours all the way for me this SS season- in clothes, nail varnish and above all, accessories! I thought I'd share with you a few items that I've fallen in love with. I'm so close to hitting the checkout button with these lilac shoes in my ASOS basket you have no idea. I feel conflicted because I've just bought my Jeffrey Campbells which I love but I think these would be lovely for the day time. It's a good job these blue bow shoes are way out of my price range at £54.99 otherwise I'd be considering buying them too! I like the classic shape and design of this ASOS bag but the pretty baby blue colour makes it look super on trend. I'm afraid though, the bag for me is still this mint New Look bag that I first fell in love with when I did my Worldwide Wardrobe competition entry. It's only £15 and I think it's so unusual and vintage looking, I don't know how much longer I can resist! 

I hope you're all having a lovely bank holiday Monday- alas, I am working! Thanks for stopping by x

Marry Me.

Dress (£48); Hat (£25); Shoes (£75); Earrings (£15); Lipstick in Macaroon (£8) all from Topshop.

Apologies for a lack of posts this week- I've just started my new job so I've been training away all week like a lil worker bee. I'm going to try and get back on it asap but I'm afraid I have little in the way of new products atm so I may have to get creative! 

Sorry if you don't like wishlist compilation posts but I've not got any money to spend on anything other than Christmas presents and petrol atm, so I'm lusting after pretty much everything these days. Just look at this dress- oh it's so pretty! I think this would be stunning in both winter and summer as it's got that Victorian elven princess look to it. I love the embroidery detail on this dress too- should I stop talking about the dress now? Pretty much everything apart from the lipstick here is massively over priced but it's Topshop and that's just what they do.

I lovelovelove these boots. I want them so bad! I think they'd go with everything all year round everyday all the time- is that justification enough?! I really like these earrings as I think they're modern meets vintage with the perspex and pearl combo. But I think these would be pretty easy to replicate DIY tbh. I'm inlove with this lipstick in Macaroon, not only is the name ace but the colour is stunning. I love the formulation of Topshop lipsticks, I've also found one in shade Depth that I really want to get my hands on. But, alas, they will not be mine. Hope y'all are having a nice weekend full of Christmasy joy!

Topshop Wishlist.

Playsuit (£40); Floral Dress (£26); Stud Checked Shirt (£34); T-shirt Dress (£16); Cross Embellished Slippers (£28); Chain Drape Brooch (£10); ACTOR Boots (£95); Bracelet (£15) all from Topshop. 

Oh wow, Topshop you've done it again. Here I was, casually browsing about the website and saw a million and one things that I loved! Winter trends are obviously the ones for me- it's all the checks, rich colours and textures. I love this cute playsuit! I think it'd look great with a shirt underneath or a cute grey flecked slouchy t-shirt. I'm not sure whether it would suit me or not but I'd sure love to give it a try. Oh the shoes- these boots are wayyyyyy too expensive but look at how nice they are! I reckon these would be super comfortable to walk in and they look real fierce. I've deffo got my eye on this t-shirt dress- they come in all different colours but I particularly like this blood red version. They're just super easy to wear and dead comfy. I think this floral dress is a great way to pull off winter florals. What's on your current wishlist?

Office Shoe Bargains.

Leopard Print Heels (£20 reduced from £60) and Suede Heels (£10 reduced from £65) both pairs from Office. 

I don't need any more shoes but when they're this much of a bargain who cares!?! I bought these shoes on separate occasions but saw them both at the same time when I went shopping a few weeks ago with my mum. I tried them both on but at the time, the black ones were still £30 which I thought was still a bit much for heels that I didn't need. I bought the leopard print ones there and then but a last week saw the black ones online for £10 and I couldn't say no! They actually came really quickly and I couldn't fault Office's online service with P&P being a meagre £3.50 which I thought was ace. I fell inlove with the chunky heels with both pairs and thought it would make them easier to walk in and much comfier. The black ones haven't photographed very well but the platform and heel is patent black, the main body of the shoe is suedey and the part where your heel sits and the strap is a beautiful silvery lilac metallic shade- kind of like chrome. I just thought I'd share these bargains with you lovelies!

Kat has recently taken to youtube to give us mere mortals a sneak peak inside her stunning wardrobe and shoe closet. I've always loved Kat's style in terms of her clothes, makeup and hair and would so love to be let loose in her wardrobe!! Please note, these aren't my videos, they have been uploaded from Kat's personal Youtube channel which you should subscribe to for sure. Enjoy!

Bag- H! by Henry Holland at Debenhams

Ring- H&M

Nails- Chanel in Paradoxial

Sorry for a) photo overload and b) poor lighting, but I'm afraid it's practically winter now and outfit posts are gonna suck when grey skies are up ahead. I channelled one of my all-time style icons Enid (played by Thora Birch) in the film Ghost World- if you haven't seen it, you should deffo check it out! I'm pretty convinced that she's a big inspiration for Agyness Deyn judging by the way she dresses. Anyway, this was an outfit of new things: new Boots which I love and are mega dupes of some Zara boots for only £18; the metallica purple Henry Holland bag I got for my bday and the grey checked New Look skirt which I got at the weekend.  Twas only this week that I was complaining about not liking winter boots/shoes and literally the day after this post, I bought these lovely boots. I love this bag, I'm normally one for unnecessarily large bags and I thought this one might be too small but it's actually just right; I also love that it's a satchel but not a satchel. It feels really well made too and it's got the cutest purple lining with red horses on it! Mine's metallic purple but I think they've also got it in patent black and neon yellow. I wore this outfit to go shopping with my gran the other day. I've put away my summer clothes and got out my winter clothes and realised that there's not many additions that my wardrobe requires this season. I was proud of myself for not buying too much- I spent £16 in Primark and got a couple of belts, some new slippers (as my old ones have fallen apart), some socks and an eye mask so I think I did well there. I hope you're all having a nice week despite the not-so-nice weather! 

Ebay.

Hi y'all. Just to let you know I've put some things up on ebay if you wanna check them out here. I had a big clear out a bit ago and sold some bits but lost my steam pretty quickly! I'm trying to get back on it now before I start working. If you have any questions about the items, please ask me via ebay rather than blog comments- it just makes it easier for everyone. I will be shipping internationally so you're all welcome to get involved! Here's some of the things what I'm selling....

 

Happy Bidding! x

The Lovely Bones.

Dress- Hell Bunny

Leggings- Primark

Ring- Primark

Shoes- Next

Nails- Nude from a Primark mini set and Look Beauty Nail Pop in Ribbon

p.s sorry the lighting is awful but that's British weather for you- I had to have my spotlights on.

This isn't like my regular 'boring' t-shirt dress and leggings type outfit which makes a nice change. I bought this dress in Sheffield before I went away and fell inlove! It's my fave dress shape ever and I have a good few Hell Bunny dresses in this style now. I love the cute vintage-feel flowery pattern on the dress and the ruffled edges are super cute. I felt dead girly wearing this outfit- I teamed the dress with these Next shoes that I blogged about a while bag. I love the lilac bow on them but my God did they kill my feet! My feet are really mard and most shoes, apart from Primark cheapy flats, give me blisters and pain for at least the first month of me wearing them *sigh*. These were no different- they're just proper stiff and hard faux patent leather but hopefully I'll wear them in soon. I love this ring I got from Primark- it should look super cheap and tacky and like children's toy jewellery but for some reason I really like it! I restrained myself from buying the matching earrings and necklace because I thought that would be a bit too wild. I think it was only about £2 as well which is a bargain. 

I started back on a diet on Monday because I've gained a fair bit of weight over the last year or so and I'm fed up with it so now uni stress is all over and done with, I've (unfortunately) ran out of excuses. I've actually been enjoying it for the most part but I do miss bad food real well loads. I've been swimming twice this week which has been ace and an intense workout at the same time plus attending my regular aerobics class last night. If you're like me and fall off the wagon real quickly then I'd recommend you check out Bloggers Go Skinny as I've found it really inspiring and motivating knowing that other bloggers are doing it too. Hope you're all well and have some lovely plans for the weekend!

It's A Shoe-In.

Shoes- Next (£28).

OK, so this might seem like a weird post but I bought these shoes when I went shopping with my mum on Friday and I really like them so thought I'd share them with you guys. They're totally "not me" in the sense that they're a) not black, b) they're nude, c) they're quite smart but I just love them! They're patent nude deck-shoes with a super cute lilac bow- my mum said they're a weird colour combo, and maybe that's why I was drawn to them but my feet did look real nice in them. I've just finished uni (I graduate on Saturday) so I'm gathering work/interview appropriate clothes whilst the sales are on but I don't really like 'work shoes' per-se. I obvs will have to wear tights all year round, or boots, because I've got tattooed feet but I think these will look super nice for work and dressy occasions. I might also take to wearing them with my usual ensemble, I'm not sure yet. What d'you think of these shoesies?

In other news, it's my 21st Birthday a week today! I've got so much going on between now and then though, including my birthday treat of going on the Harry Potter Studio Tour with my dad (a joint bday present as my dad's birthday is the day after mine).
