Wishlist


Boots - Ever Ours
Skirt - eBay
Michael Kors Watch
Hat - The Native State
Sunglasses - ASOS

Just a few things on my wishlist at the moment.

I'm loving these Lita copies from Ever Ours and at £25 you can't go wrong!

I fell in love with this sequin skirt when it was on Miss Guided but it sold out so quickly, luckily I found it on eBay so I'll probably be getting it soon. Perfect for Christmas coming up.

I'm still wanting a Michael Kors watch, I haven't actually owned a watch for years so it would be nice to have a lovely one. I may spend my Christmas money on this.

I adore this hat from Lovely Bird but it's a little expensive and pretty similar to one I already have. Anyway I just love the navajo print on it!

These sunglasses are so much like Ray Ban Wayfarer's and only £12, I've had them in my ASOS wishlist for so long, I better get them purchased soon!!

A Rare Sight

Bag - River Island
Belt - ASOS
Earrings - Primark

I am now the proud owner of a new pair of boots. I'm sure if you follow my blog you will have seen my Topshop Ambush boots in pretty much every post for the past year, and you will no doubt see them again, but I decided it was time to get something new. I came across these lovely boots on eBay and since I've wanted a pair of tan boots for a while I thought why not? They were a bargain £25 and are pretty comfy for a pair of eBay boots I must say. If you're after a pair of boots there are some awesome ones on eBay, I just typed in studded ankle boots and had to choose between about 7 pairs!

Today I have my hair up which is a very rare sight, I much prefer my hair down but today I looked like the wild man of borneo so it was the only option! I spent the day in town getting a few xmas presents, managed to sort quite a bit of xmas shopping which I'm pleased about and I now only have two people to buy for, accomplishment!

Until the next time...!

Boots - Topshop
Bag - River Island
Bull Necklace - Dixi
Arrow Necklace - eBay
Druzy Ring - Dixi
Eagle Ring - Topshop
Belt - ASOS
Fur Collar - H&M

So this is my first proper outfit post since I moved in with my boyfriend, I was a little embarrassed doing these photos outside as there are so many houses around and I always feel like someone is watching me but I'm glad to be back with a new OOTD.

I picked up this jumper in Primark for £6 a few days ago and I love it, it's a lovely fine knit and is so useful for this time of year. I'm sure you're all so bored of seeing me wear these boots for the past year none stop so you'll be pleased to know I have some new boots ordered that are not black and are not called Ambush, they are pretty much the same shape though, what can I say?!

Incase you are wondering my nails are imPRESS in Tweetheart (glitter is Technic in Carnival) which you can get from Boots and Superdrug, they are fantastic for a quick manicure and have lasted me 9 days so far, the box says up to 7 days so I'm happy with that. I would definitely recommend them for a special occasion, I'm going to get them in black for Christmas and New Year!

When I reach 200 followers I will be having a giveaway so please spread the word about my blog, I would really appreciate it!

Hope you all have a lovely weekend!

Beautiful Dixi Pieces


These beautiful pieces from Dixi were waiting for me when I got home today. I fell in love with the rainbow druzy ring as soon as I saw it and there was only one available so I snapped it up, it's just as beautiful in person and is now my new favourite ring! I also got the Native Bull necklace which I love and I think will not leave my neck very often!! I'll definitely be buying more jewellery from Dixi in the future. If you like unique jewellery go and check them out here.

Birthday OOTD







It was my 26th birthday yesterday, yes 26, where the hell did those years go?! I spent the day with my boyfriend, mum and gran in Nottingham, we had dinner at the pub including amazing cheesecake and did a little bit of shopping before me and my mum went to watch the Real Techniques event at Boots with the amazing Samantha Chapman from Pixiwoo! She did a smokey eye demo before answering peoples questions about make up and I got a photo with her and my brush box signed, total fangirl moment haha!! She was lovely, nice was to spend my birthday!!

Casual




Hey everyone, I'm so sorry for the hiatus yet again, I'm such a bad blogger! I promise I'm gonna at least try to do some outfit posts this Winter!

I saw this jacket on the amazing Lily @ LLYMRS a few months ago and fell in love so when I saw it in my local Primark for £10 I had to grab it. It looks so much more expensive than a Primark jacket as well and is perfect for bringing in the metallics trend this season. I love the leather lapels too! You can easily dress this jacket up or down.

This outfit it pretty casual but the jacket adds a bit of spice to it which I love!

Jeans - Topshop

Until next time, which hopefully won't be too long, have fun!!

Disco Pants - Day to Night

A couple of weeks ago I finally got the imfamous American Apparel Disco Pants. I'd bought a couple of dupes and they were fab but I still wanted the real thing. I used a 10% discount code for ASOS and got them for £63, probably the most I've spent on an item of clothing (not including shoes/boots). I think they are worth every penny, they are gorgeous and more versatile than I thought. I've mainly worn them in the day which I didn't expect and a couple of times at night. Today's post is a little different to my usual, I'm going to show you 2 outfits, one for the day and one for the night, both including the lovely disco pants.


Day



In the day I would wear my disco pants with something casual as they can look very dressed up. I would want to cover up my bum in the day as they are pretty revealing (a thong is also needed to prevent VPL!) so I'd go for a longer top like a blouse & long cardigan or a chunky knit jumper with my favourite boots from Topshop.

Disco Pants - American Apparel
Blouse - New Look
Cardigan - Primark
Boots - Topshop
Hat - Primark
Necklace - Topman


Night



For the night I'd go a little more glam. I'd go for a blouse again, this time maybe tying it at the front to reveal the high waist, and go for a different pair of boots like these ancient red Topshop boots and a fedora. You could also wear a sheer blouse with an embellished bra underneath and platforms.

Disco Pants - American Apparel
Blouse - Primark
Bolo Tie - River Island
Boots - Topshop (many moons ago)
Hat - Select

What do you think of AA Disco Pants? Do you prefer the real thing or the dupes? x
