UK Lifestyle blog consisting of fashion, Travel and Interviews!


Yay! It's Payday and if you weren't sure how to treat yourself this month, I've complied a list of clothes that I've been itching to buy. This wishlist is full of fun, unique and quite girly pieces. Which leads me to my brand crush of the month is Lazy Oaf, I've absolutely loved their latest launches and have been buying 2-3 things from each collection. Everything fits perfectly and the quality is really lovely too, whenever I wear anything from them I always get complimented so that's got to be a sign of a good brand. I may have been a bit naughty and bought a couple of things from this wishlist already, so expect a couple of style posts soon!


Spring fashion bloggers 2016

With the first day of spring only a week away, I couldn't help but add a few more spring/summer items into my 2016 wishlist. I've noticed that I'm finding myself adding the same brands to my list and I keep on being drawn to their pieces, I'm looking at you Free People, Wildfox and For love & Lemons... (I just wish they were little more affordable!) My Spring wishlist is full of pretty embroidered fabrics, fun t-shirts and cute summer dresses. I hope you like what I've put together and let me know of any brands you really like at the moment! I'd love to know what's been inspiring you.

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...


1 - Jacket £55 from ASOS, 2- Ring £180 by Alex Monroe, 3- Bronzer (in the shade Laguna) £26 from Nars via ASOS, 4 - Ring £95 by Bark via My Flash Trash, 5 - Bag £230 by Vivienne Westwood and 6 -  Boots £140 from Kurt Geiger.

It's coming up to my 21st birthday and I've complied a dream wishlist, I would never expect to receive most of the things on this page hence why this post has been titled dream luxury wishlist but it's nice to have a look at pretty (and expensive) things. I wanted to choose a few different pieces other the endless Mulberry bags (the Alexa and Willow bags preferably) I could have put on this list.

I am totally in love with this jacket from ASOS and it's on my wishlist as I wish it would come back in stock, in my size (they only have size 16 currently). I spotted Front model Rosie Jones wearing it on Instagram over the weekend and it made me want it even more. I can imagine it looking perfect with a loose vest or with this t-shirt which I recently bought with some cut out denim shorts and ankle boots.

I've also been looking at rings a lot recently as I feel I need to add to my collection, my Daisy ring from Oliver Bonas is looking a little bit lonely on its own. I came across these two, the first being from my favourite jewellery designer Alex Monroe, all the jewellery on their site is so delicate and feminine, I'm yet to visit their boutique/shop in London. You'll probably know them from their famous Bumblebee necklace as seen on the gorgeous Sienna Miller. I also came across this silver heart/ship ring from Bark whilst browsing My Flash Trash, the jewellery site founded by Made In Chelsea's Amber Atherton. I think it suits my style pretty well and I can imagine sporting this on a daily basis. I've added a few other bits that I think are lovely too, I can imagine those Kurt Geiger boots teamed with a tea dress to give it a bit of an edge could look pretty cool during the (hopefully hotter) next few months.

What do you think of my wishlist, anything you'd pick out for yourself?

This months wishlist pretty much consists of accessories and all the items are a little bit pricey. I'm supposed to be being good with my money as I saving up for my trip to New York in the autumn, but there are just so many things I want to buy right now! A very navy & white themed wishlist too, this was completely unintentional I'm just obviously a navy and white kinda girl...

1. Dr. Martens, Mini heart satchel, £125 - This satchel is so cute and comes from the Agyness Deyn collaboration. This will be perfect for spring and summer when it finally arrives, and  I think I would team this with a vintage style tea dress, but it would also look great at night with disco pants.
2. Kurt Gieger, Vito Heels, £140 - I've had my eye on these heels for a very long time, when ever I'm on the KG website I find myself time and time again lusting after these beauties. If I have any rich admirers out there, I take a size 7!
3. Topshop, Scallop Bikini, £30 & 4. Topshop, Scallop Swinsuit, £36 - I am so in love with these two swimwear pieces, they're something that I would definitely love to be wearing on the beach. I also love the 50's twist to them and my favourite combination of navy and white. Ties on the side of the bikini bottoms are especially flattering if you're worried about your hips/thighs on the beach as they don't cut you off like some other bikini bottoms may. 
5. Puma, Classic Suede Trainers, £55 - I've been on the hunt for a new pair of everyday trainers for a while and although I love my Nike Janoski's to death, I fancied a change, so I spotted these on the Office website and I think I'll be purchasing them soon!
6. Olivia Burton (via ASOS), Watch, £62 - I first spotted this watch in the Islington Joy shop and I couldn't stop thinking about it on my tube journey home. So when I spotted it on the ASOS website, it made me want it even more! All of Olivia Burton's watches are so pretty and elegant and with 10% student discount on ASOS I feel I may be slipping this into my shopping basket someday soon!

What do you think of my picks? Is there anything you have your eye on? I'd love to know in the comments below!

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, £84I'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'm moving into my new uni house this week with a few of my girlfriends from my uni so I’m going to be on a bit of a blogging hiatus until my internet is sorted and I’m all settled in, but I thought I would share with you a things that are on my wish list for my bedroom. The things I have chosen are very girly because i want my room to feel cosy, feminine and homely when I get back from a long day at uni or work. Since having a look round on various websites I’ve found that looking on children's section of websites is also worth the look as they often have some really cute and girly pieces. supermarkets are also great for finding things to make your room a little bit more exciting without breaking the bank and you can do your weekly shop whilst you're there!


All of these items come to the amazing total price of £60.70!

I think my top three purchases out of the wish list have got to be the adorable Minnie Mouse bow pillow and the deer cushion which is the amazing price of £5 from Asda, (such a bargain looks like it could easily be from Urban Outfitters!) Although not in my top three but definitely worth the extra mention is the letter holder also from Asda. It would make a great way to organise your desk if you have lots of essays and documents from uni if you are a student like me. Then the pink basket from H&M, which you could use as a handy piece of storage in your bedroom as great place to store hair straighteners etc. or in your kitchen. I love the dusty pink  against the contrast of the black writing, I think it gives it quite a vintage Parisian feel to it. The basket also comes in three other colours, I quite like the look of the green!

I'd love to know what your favourite piece is out the things I've chosen or if you know of any good online places to find bedroom bits!
It's my 20th birthday in less than a month (27th June to be exact) and I was thinking about what I would like to have for my birthday, this list is a bit unrealistic but I can dream! I was thinking about asking for things for my bedroom as I am moving house soon and want to make my bedroom look really girly and cosy, but I think I can buy those things myself over the summer. A few things on the list I have wanted for ages and others are new found loves of mine. My top 3 gifts on the list have to be the Mulberry bracelet, Burberry Perfume which smells amazing and may even beat my  current favourite scent Chloe by Chloe and the gorgeous bronzing highlighter Benefit Sun Beam.



 
Burberry Body Perfume - £45                 Fred Perry Halter Neck Dress - £90

American Apparel Disco Pants - £70                            Jones + Jones Saffron Dress - £65
