flower me with joy.











hey dolls, so i've seen floral crowns everywhere this summer (i even did DIY) but i recently seen on various blogs that primark had stocked a few crowns. so yesterday i caved in and headed to primark. as soon as i got there i went straight to the headband section (otherwise i'd forget what i went there for buy everything else and not remember till i'm sat at home) these are the only big "crownish" ones they had, they had a few smaller headbands similar but my hairs too long and thick for thin headbands so i settled for these 3. The white flower one was £2.50 and the other 2 were £3 which is incredibly cheap considering rock n rose sell them for 40 odd pounds. I don't own a rock n rose one because i refuse to pay that much so i'm thrilled i now own these cuties and will definitely get my fair share of wear (I'm a poet and i didn't know it ;)) out of them.  The only thing i'm gutted about is a few of the petals on the pink crown have black dirt on them which i noticed in the car on the way home, but i live 45 minutes away from the nearest primark so can't take it back but i'm sure i'll be able to fix that :) Also i was hoping primark @ ASOS would stock these online I've had a quick check and they don't but hopefully they will soon. so that's all for now. Hope you love these little beauties as much as i do.

ASOS premier.




Hey dolls, so I haven't blogged in a while i've had a lot going on which has took over the last few months but i'm happy to be back and blogging. So just because i haven't been blogging does by no means mean i have not been shopping! I got an E-mail from ASOS a couple of weeks ago asking if i wanted to upgrade to be a premier customer. I looked into it and for a limited time only it's £9.95 for next day delivery ALL YEAR!!!  yep all year! I ordered something an wanted next day delivery which costs £5.95 so for an extra £4 i could buy ASOS premier! It's amazing i've ordered so many different things from asos now and having them arrive the next morning is such an amazing feeling (is that sad?) The only downside is that now i get free delivery it's just an excuse to buy even more and my bank balance never looks good (even if i do thanks to asos haha) 
I would definitely recommend this if you often shop at asos or new look or river island (they stock those too)  and also the most fantastic news out of all this is that..... PRIMARK ARE STOCKED AT ASOS. yes you can now buy primark online through asos which is amazing news. 
so that's all for now! hope you liked this post
let me know if you sign up to asos premier :)

WHAT WINTER BLUES?...





winter is my favorite part of the year I love the clothes, the atmosphere, the lights, and I suppose the fact that it's Christmas helps a little bit. I love wrapping up in my over sized cardigans and faux fur coats and taking trips to see Santa and seeing all the different lights on the way, I personally think Christmas brings everyone together! All the Christmas films appear on TV (ELF IS MY FAV OF ALL TIME) and it's nice to sit around the TV with a hot chocolate a blanket Christmas lights on and chill..  what's not to love?  (i rambled on a lot then i just get so excited about Christmas) anyway.. 
here are a few of my favorite winter pieces which I've been lusting over. They will have to make an appearance in my wardrobe especially these ear muff which are the cutest things EVER!
so this was just a quick blog to say don't be blue!

                        CHRISTMAS IS NEARLY HERE!!                                ENJOY IT!! 



that's all for now

luck is on my side



this is again, a carboot sale find but it was such a bargain i couldn't not show you!
i tried to take pictures myself but they were all very blurry so i got these off  google so you could get the a better look of the dress. I do not own these picutres. ok now, how amazing is this dress? Its a nude dress covered in sequins and beads and is really heavy for a dress it feels very expensive and really good quality the back is backless/cut out which is always brilliant on a dress. I bought this brand new with the tags on. The tags said RRP £99. i bought it for............................... £2!!!!!!!!! It's such a perfect fit and very flattering i can't wait to wear this out!

like i said.. Luck is on my side ;)

That's all for now

Bet Lynch eat your heart out..





when it comes to leopard print i'm very wary, sometimes it looks vile while other times amazing-ly lush. I always thought with leopard print you have to pay alot of money for it to look fab, OH HOW WRONG I WAS... these gorgeous babies were in PRIMARK for £6. The texture is...fury? and they feel quite expensive. For £6 i don't expect them to last forever but i've already worn them a handful of times and they still look and feel great. I'm so happy with these little beauties and for six pounds... you can't go wrong.

That's all for now..

Wednesday Wishlist

midi monochrome bodycon - ASOS

Palm print high waisted jeans - Motel @ ARK
Leather jacket - Own the runway

flatform high tops - River island
Studded loafers - Matalan
shirt blouse - Forever21
matching bra and knickers (sold separately) Monki 

How uh-mazing are the zig zag high waisted knickers and matching bra? This is my first wishlist and it's making me a bit sad that it is actually a WISHlist and not a i-have-all-this-in-my-wardrobe-list. Oh well a girl can dream right?  
However most of the things on my wishlist are affordable so roll on payday!

*happy dance*

wearing the sun






So the sun has upped and away and left the place feeling dull so i was forced to inject some color into my wardrobe. This GORGEOUS blazer from H&M  is just £29.99 which is a great price for a good quality blazer, When i opened my package i thought to myself 'WHAT ARE THESE?' (looking at the sleeves) they look like they need a good iron, but rest assured they look much better on! Its a yellowy limey green color and has fitted shoulder pads, which aren't to lady gaga may i add. This would brighten up a classic LBD or look great with jeans and a plain tee, or over a qhite summer dress if the sunds decides to show its face again, so versatile and i LOVE IT! i just which they did it in more colors :(
Check it out! HERE!

bootsale and others..

hey ladies,
I'll start of with a couple things i picked up from BMbeauty. I received one of their bronzers in last months glossy box and loved it, so i decided to welcome some more bm beauty products with open arms. I ordered a blush in shade "velvet dawn" which is gorgeously pink, when i first used it i was frightened because the brush picks up so much product at one time so i have to tap the brush to remove a lot of the blush otherwise i would end up looking like a china doll. but overall its very easy to apply and blends amazingly. I also ordered a foundation in shade "stripped" which i believe is the lightest shade you can get (poor me,i'm very pale) Now, when i first tried this foundation i found it offered no coverage at all, i didn't feel comfortable walking around with this on my face because i felt like i had no makeup on and everyone could see my naked face. I then tried to put this over my foundation to matte and add a bit more coverage but when i did so it turned my face ORANGE AND PATCHY! :( so i won't be using the foundation again but overall i will definitely order some more products maybe some eyeshadow or eyeliner? after all 2 out of 3 isn't bad. Also they sent me a free chocolate bar with my order.. MAKEUP AND CHOCOLATE? THEY KNOW A WAY TO A GIRLS HEART. ;)

sorry for the poor quality pictures
