RIVER ISLAND SPRING PREVIEW

Wow I've had a busy week of netball, basketball and football! I've just been to parents evening and I now have time to actually sit down, read some blogs and relax.. While trollin' on the internet I found that the River Island Spring preview had been released. I have to say I wasn't particularly impressed with what I saw. Above are my favourite pieces. I'd definitely buy numbers 1 and 2 because they have spring written all over them, floral print and really cute. I like the vintage look number 3 has especially. I always like River Island bags but barely ever buy them, I'm not too sure on the quality because they seem to not last very long before they break, but I do really like number 6. The colours are really calm.

TOPSHOP DRESS | NEWLOOK JACKET - £30-£40?! | H&M BAG - £30 | TOPSHOP BOOTS 

Yesterday I celebrated my good friend Anna's 16th Birthday with a trip to the cinema to watch Les Mis in the IMAX (I definitely reccomend it, I was singing all the songs all night!) and then going back to hers for pizza, cake, parce the parcel (yes, 15/16 year olds playing parce the parcel - you can never get to old!) and a hilarious game of articulate! With school I find I don't actually go out that much and therefore never wear nice outfits so I was excited to finally wear this dress I bought a while ago. It's so great because it's such a simple casual thing you can chuck on and pair up with anything. It's not too short however the skirt does tend to get stuck to my tights so I have to be wary of that so I don't go flashing!! Surprise, surprise my bag and shoes had studs on, probably the only reason I bought them!


 TOPSHOP RINGS - SALE £3.50 |  NAIL VARNISH - BARRY M

I hate my hands so I don't often wear rings but I was so happy when I found these rings in the Topshop Sale, they come as a set of 4, the last ring being a Pink stone. The ring shapes are all different, one is circular, another more hexagon-y so particularly the grey and pink stone rings won't stay on which is why I've put the blue stone ring with it, to wedge it in place. As you know I worship to Barry M nail varnish (although I did buy an Essie one to try yesterday - shock horror!!) and these colours are Pomegranate no. 235 - this is one of the Gelly Hi Shine bottles, and the sparkle one is Rose Quartz Glitter no. 349.


TOPSHOP NECKLACE

I got this necklace ages ago and it has been my favourite ever since. I always love Topshop jewellery but rarely buy it because of it's ridiculous price. Although I had to buy this as it's just adorable.

So there we go! My first up to date OOTD post! I am still struggling to take good photos so if you happen to know any tips and where to buy a cheap Tripod let me know!! Hope you all have a great week!


P.S. Happy 21st Birthday to my fabulous brother George!

PRIMARK SS13

Friday, 25 January 2013

I'm sure you're all aware that the Spring/Summer Primark range was recently released, because of this I decided to do a little post about it! Looking at all these clothes has made me super excited for the sun and warmth to return!! I've been impressed with this years Primark clothing, especially the Jumpers so I hope this range will live up to those expectations! Below are a few of my favourite picks:

1 - This is gorgeous, probably my favourite item of everything I saw. I can totally see myself wearing it in Summer, it's such a soft pretty colour, I just hope it comes to my local store!!
2 - I love satchels, although I already have one which I stole from my brother I still thought this was great, although Primark bags do break very quickly, but I suppose that's what you pay for!
3 - The tassel bit on these shorts is awful, thankfully it's just a clip on! I love the colours of these shorts and the studded detail.
4 - Maxi skirts all the way! This would be perfect on a Summer night out, and they're always such lifesavers when I'm too lazy to shave my legs, don't pretend you don't do it too!!
5 - As soon as I saw this I knew it would go perfect with a belt, some cute dolly shoes and a little cardi. It's a really simple dress which is just dying to live in my wardrobe!
6 - I really like the detail on the neckline of this blouse and this chiffon-like material is really good for the sun, I just hope it's not too shear because I hate tops that you have to wear another top underneath to hide your bra!!
7 - I've decided I need more blouses with collars so this was perfect. It's really adorable and I love the bow pattern!

What do you think of the new Range? You can browse at them here and here!


P.S. I want to know what YOU'D like to see on my blog, what posts would you like? Reviews, OOTD's, wishlists or something different? Make some requests and let me know!Xx

EBAY WISHLIST #1

Wednesday, 23 January 2013

1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8

My first Ebay wishlist! I actually forgot how many amazing things you can find on ebay for such ridiculously cheap prices! My favourites out of this wishlist have got to be the doc martens, the sparkly jacket and the bag! I've wanted a pair of docs for ages but I don't know if they'll end up looking gothic or really big on me.. but I suppose this winter weather has made me want them that little bit more! The sparkly jacket is just so gorgeous and out there and I think it would go with a lot, and the bag is another thing I've been wanting for a while but there's no point in buying it because the handle would get on my nerves and I mainly use bags for school!

What are your favourite Ebay sellers? Comment below!


P.S. I bought my Prom dress last night.. I'm SO excited! Can I get a woop woop?!

WINTER WONDERLAND

Sunday, 20 January 2013

On Monday the snow began to arrive and since then it hasn't stopped! Over here in Ipswich we've had a few inches and I decided to jump on the bandwagon and post a few pretty pictures I took on Wednesday!

I love the look of snow, but that's pretty much the only thing I like about it. Who enjoys slipping over and freezing to death every time you step outside? Not me! Sorry snow but you gotta go!
