Believe it or not, but I've really been trying not to buy any clothes this month, but after a bit of a grey and rainy week I decided I wanted to inject some colour back into my life. The next morning, my ASOS parcel was delivered and I was smitten with my new dress. I loved the black tie ribbons at the top of the dress, it reminds me of all the beautiful dresses Dior and Chloe have been creating recently. The fabric is super light and works well with the floral pattern, a great piece to wear to the races or a wedding. Did I mention it's from Miss Selfridge and it's only £35!
Now, it's time to talk about the bag. I was extremely lucky to be given this for my birthday last month. I'd first seen this bag when Kurt Geiger had released back it in February (?) and was obsessed, but it sold out so quickly, I was gutted when I realised I was no longer able to get my hands on it. I was that annoying person who constantly tweeted and commented on their social channels asking if it was back in stock. However when I spotted it was making a come back at the press day I was so excited, and I loved it perhaps more than I did before! A few days before my birthday it appeared online and it was clearly meant to be. It might be a little over the top for the average person but I absolutely love it, the mini pearls, the eagle embellishment, the embroidery and the glittery thread weaved into the blue! It's so pretty! Plus I've seen it's now available in pink...

I've recently been finding myself having a little browse online a lot more than usual. I don't know if this is because I know it's pay day soon, or if I'm subconsciously wanting to have a bit of a wardrobe make over. So I've put together my spring wish list, the majority of these pieces are from Miss Selfridge who are nailing it with their current collection! What's even better is that if you like anything I've shown you, you can click the through to the website & it'll take you straight to the page! Just to let you know, those of you who can't see my picks below you need to switch off your Google add blocker as it blocks this widget! I'm sure you'll be seeing a few of these pieces in a style blog post soon...
It's coming up to the exam period for us university students as I'm sure most of you are all too aware. Although I don't have any exams my big hand in date is quickly approaching. I did another photoshoot with a friend of mine as part of this hand in - I'm looking for male models if any of you know any for my next photoshoot. Again with these photos the theme is 90s, I hope this comes across in the styling and editing as I've had a nightmare editing some of these!
I'd love to know what you think, whether its good or bad feedback (it helps me out either way), leave me a comment below! After the big hand in I should be back to blogging as usual - and if you didn't see it already I interviewed Lily Vanilli, which was an exciting and interesting experience... check it out here.
What I'm wearing: Crop top - Topshop, Skater skirt - Topshop, Ankle socks - Topshop & Heels - Miss Selfridge (old but similar here)
I thought I'd finally get round to doing another outfit post as the other one went down pretty well. This is the type of outfit I would definitely wear for a night out with my university girls. I've teamed my polka dot crop top with the black skater skirt so it isn't too revealing. If I was feeling brave I'd get like legs out like I've done here, if not I reckon this would still look okay with some plain black tights. I love the heels in this outfit and I really don't wear them enough but they're so high. I get scared that I won't be able to last more than a few hours! Putting this outfit together was so much fun and by the end of it I'd created an outfit that I love, and it really reminds me of Minnie Mouse!
March is going to be a pretty manic month for me as I have lots going on with uni, work and friends and family. I hope that I can get around to doing a post a week. I should have another outfit post ready for you all soon featuring an item that you may have seen on my last wishlist post, and I'd love to know what you think of this one and what you've been up to!

I haven't done one of these in a while but after having a few days off uni, I found myself bookmarking a few items that I hope to purchase soon and I thought I would share them with you.
1. Emma Bridgewater, Dachshund mug, £9.95 - As you may have noticed I have a slight obsession with sausage dogs and I really hope I can have one one day, but until then this Emma Bridgwater mug will have to do.
2. Wittards, Rocky Road Hot Chocolate, £5.50 - To put in my Emma Bridgewater mug I found this Rocky Road hot chocolate which sounds so tasty and would definitely keep me warm on these very cold winter nights!
3. Amazon, Canon EF 50 mm f/1.8 II Lens, £84 - I've been looking for a new lens for a while and this has been recommended to me by quite a few people, so this is on the very top of my wishlist.
4. Topshop, Happy sandals, £28 - Perhaps a bit premature to be looking at sandals but I saw these on the Topshop website and I know that they'll be a great purchase for the summer and I'd be prepared!
5. Missguided, boots, £40.99 - I still haven't found the perfect boots for winter but these are getting there and aren't too expensive. I love the gold details!
6.Miss Selfridge, High Waisted shorts, £32- I love these denim shorts from Miss Selfridge's new collection they'll be great for the summer and nights out.
7. Lime Crime, Candy Apple Lipgloss, $16.99 - This Lime Crime lipgloss has been on my beauty wish list for a long time, this shade is the perfect glittery red and reminds me of Snow White. What's even better about the brand is that they don't test on animals and this is a vegan product.
8. Miss Selfridge, Playsuit, £39 - This polka dot pinafore from Miss Selfridge is so cute I love the vintage look to it and it will be great for layering and in the spring and summer months.
I hope you liked this post and that I showed you some things that maybe you would like to buy for yourself as a treat to beat those January blues. Until next time!
P.S Thankyou so much to everyone who has clicked "follow" over the last 8 months, I've now made it to over 100 wish is so exciting and it's crazy that 100+ people would want to read my blog so thankyou and there's to the next hundred (hopefully...)
I've been pretty bad with my posts this week, but I finally have a beauty review coming in the next few days so look out for that. I've just been busy spending time with my boyfriend, friends and family before I go back to university in the next week and a half.
1. The hilarious badge my little sister made me to show we're best friends, I'm going to miss her so much when I go back to university, I can't believe she's in year 10! 2. A dress from Miss Selfridge I saw and fell in love with and then brought a few days later, 3. I went to the Paralympics the other day and this is a shot from the Mens wheelchair basketball, 4.Police Horses at the Olympic Park, 5.As I am sure some of you know one of my favourite things ever is frozen yoghurt, so I when I was in the Westfields in Stratford I just had to go to the Pinkberry, 6. Katy Perry for O.P.I nail varnish using the bows from a haul I did a while ago (the link for that is here) 7. TGI Friday's, I had the vegetable fajita's they were so good, definitely one of my new favourite meals, 8. I'm currently looking for house bits for my new room this year and I spotted this Hello Kitty x Liberty duvet set and cushion. I love it but at a total of £55 for both, I think it's a bit too much? 9. I went to a Hoss Intropia event last night with my mum and this is my outfit of the evening.
