A Payday Wishlist

payday wishlist

I am so excited for pay day to come around this month! I feel like all I've been doing these past few months is booking and buying things for the wedding. As I have had my eye on so many things recently, I've decided that I'll actually treat myself this time around. 

How gorgeous are these white Ted Baker heels?! And YES, they're expensive... £139. To be honest, I don't think I've ever spent this much money on a pair of shoes. But, I have been searching high and low for bridal shoes and can't find any that I actually like apart from these. I am still debating whether to give in and buy these or just wait to see if I find anything cheaper. Another pair of shoes I'd love to add to my wardrobe are these wedges from River Island. I loved their wedges last year but I left it waaay too late and they were all sold out by the time I went on holiday. 

I swear by my all time fave Bondi Sands tan, but I was actually recommended this certain tan lotion from Rosi on Instagram. Her tan has been looking flawless recently and she had mentioned that she uses bBold tan, which I've never even heard of! For only £14.95, I will definitely be giving this a go. After trying the Nars all day luminous weightless foundation, I really want to give the Estee Lauder double wear a whirl! I've realised that paying a little bit extra for a foundation does pay off. 

As for my hair, it has been needing some hella TLC at the moment. I don't know why but it feels so damaged and dry. LUSH is always a winner with their products. So I found a treatment and a conditioner - what more will my hair want?! 


What's on your pay day wishlist this month? Let me know if you've tried the bBold tan too!

A/W 2018 Wardrobe Wishlist

autumn and winter wishlist 2018

My favourite time of the year is here! Call me crazy, but I love the colder, darker mornings and evenings. There are so many cute pieces about in stores for this season so I had to make a wishlist because I want everything!

You can't not have a thick knitted jumper this time of the year. This one from River Island particularly caught my eye. I just love the quality of the material and how big the roll neck is. Buy it here for £36. Another staple I'm loving this season is leopard print, it's everywhere you go. I love the style of this tie front top, you can style it both down and up. Buy it here for £18. Keeping along the lines of leopard print, I saw these heeled boots on MissPap, aren't they just gorgeous!? They're perfect to add a little something else to an outfit. Buy them here for £25.

I had a black poncho like this grey one last year and I basically lived in it, get it here for £17.99.
I wanted another basic jumper in my wardrobe and I found this gorgeous grey off the shoulder one from Pretty Little Thing, buy it here for £15. Yellow is everywhere this season and I love it, I don't know why because I don't really wear yellow but I saw this kimono on Boohoo and added it straight to my wishlist. Get it here for £12. Whilst I was on the Boohoo site, I saw this fur hooded cream coat for £45 which is so good! I have been on the lookout for a white/cream coat for ages as I always stick to wearing black. Buy it here.

Since writing this wishlist, I have already went out and bought this mustard skirt. It's amazing quality and fits so nice. Plus, it gives me aaall the Clueless vibes. Get it here for £9.99. Staying along the lines of the checked patterns, because I always wear white, grey and black, this jacket would be perfect! I'd most probably wear it all the time. It looks so cosy too. Get it here for £85. I love the look of this monochrome twisted jumper, it would look lush with a pair of high waisted jeans and some boots. Buy it here for £20.

I really don't need anymore ankle boots but River Island stocks the best Winter boots! I saw these suede Chelsea boots with the black patent and gold detailing and I fell in love. Buy them here for £40. Burgundy is always a must have colour for this time of the year, and this cropped striped hoody would be perfect with some high waisted jeans and trainers. Buy it here for £15.

What have you had your eye on ready for the new season?

Current Beauty Products I Want to Try This Year

beauty products to try

When I want to try a new product, I note them in my phone. I blame beauty bloggers and youtubers for the hype of the majority of these included. I've ended up with a mini list of beauty products that I want to try at some point throughout this year. No doubt this list will grow majorly throughout 2018. 

I've seen a lot of bloggers rave about the 'This Works Deep Sleep' pillow spray but me being a tight-arse, didn't want to pay £18-£26. I then heard through the grapevine that the 'Tropic So Sleepy' pillow mist works just the same. It's also cheaper than deep sleep at just £10. Bargain! 

This is all I've seen over the blogging atmosphere for the past, almost four years I've been blogging. I was so so close to buying it last Summer but I didn't want to spend that much ££ on a concealer - especially as I go through them fairly quickly. But, I think it's finally time to get an amazing concealer that is actually worth the pennies. 

I fell in love with the shape of this beauty blender when I saw Sabrina use it in one of her videos. You obviously have the same shape of the blender but with a pointed tip so it's easier to get to the inner corners of the eyes, to go round the brows and to sharpen the eyeshadow line. You can basically do everythaaang with this little beauty.

Oh my god. I have been wanting needing this for absolutely AGES. Again, the price put me off. (Omg, I really am a tight-arse bitch!? How do I not have any money?) Anyway, is it really that good though? Er, yes! Those before and after results on their Insta page. I'll probably ask for a few of these for my birthday.

It's only recently I've seen people go on and on about this hair mask. I've only tried a few hair masks in my life which is ridiculous as I have bleached hair. But, this sounds amazing. Some people have complained about the strong smell of banana but I love the smell of banana. Gimme all the banana!

I read a blog post mid last year about the NYX glitter primer and how good it was. I've been meaning to buy a good glitter primer for some time. So as well as buying the glitter primer, I might as well buy and try their glitter brillants too, right?

This has been super popular in the blogging world recently and I'm feeling bloody left out to be honest! I love all the results from this little product.

Again, like the Nars creamy concealer, this costs a few pennies too. Although, people have said that it really is worth the price so it's definitely a must for me! I just don't want to pay the price for shipping as it's ridiculous. 

Oh I've heard great things about this facial cleanser. I like trying out new and different skincare products, so I will definitely get round to giving this a go at some point.

A liquid highlighter at an affordable price - now I'm hooked. I love all the results their shades give. It's so tempting to buy the whole lot.

I love everything about this palette. How gorgeous are the shades? I would probably use every single one. I don't think I own any high-end eyeshadow palettes apart from Urban Decay. Wow, some beauty blogger I am.

I have been wanting to try this for a while but I've stuck with my drugstore faves haven't I. I do need to venture out and try more high-end foundations. They're worth the money I guess.

Have you ever tried any of these products? What are they like? What beauty products do you want to try in 2018?

Wardrobe Essentials You Need This A/W

autumn and winter wardrobe essentials

With the colder weather drawing in, I decided that I wanted to and needed to update my wardrobe. So, I've been shopping around and found some affordable essentials that you'll need this A/W. I noticed this black cape in River Island a couple of days ago and I just had to get it. Unfortunately it is one size but I'm tiny and surprisingly, it doesn't look ridiculous on me. I thought that it was perfect for when you're chilly but don't want to overheat in a coat. It is reversible and River Island also stocks it in the colour grey, which is also gorg! £30.00 Buy it here.

Who doesn't love cosy socks in the colder weather? I live in fluffy socks and slippers at this time of the year and these slipper socks from New Look are perfect. How cute are the little bobbles? New Look also sell these in a light pink colour. £9.99 Buy these here.
I don't usually wear hats in the colder months. Mainly because they make my hair messy and they don't suit me. But, I bought this particular one from Primark a few weeks back. It suits me so well and its such a lovely material and colour. Although, I was stuck between this one and the burgundy colour. To be honest, I could've got both for the affordable price. £2.50 Buy it here.

I love a nice cosy coat for this time of the year. Longline jackets are so in trend at the moment but I feel that not everybody loves them. But I love this one from New Look, I love the length and the faux fur and it just looks cute. £44.99 Buy it here.
Another bargain from Primark is this burgundy scarf. I am obsessed with the colour burgundy at the minute, I don't know what it is. Maybe it's because it's Autumnal and I'm all for that shit this year. I actually ended up buying this scarf in a light beige colour the other day. Unlucky for me, my Primark store didn't have the burgundy scarf in stock. But like my beige one, this is reversible which is always handy for different outfits. £5.00 Buy it here.

I have been wanting some knee high boots for ageeees. I just can't seem to find the perfect pair. I love these ones from River Island, they just go over the knee and look so lush on. I just wish they were knee length. But I love these anyway and you need to have a pair of knee high or over the knee boots in your wardrobe! £75.00 Buy them here.
I have been looking for jumper dresses everywhere. I must be really fussy because yet again, I don't seem to fall in love with any. I found this plain swing jumper dress from Boohoo and I was oh so pleased when I found it. It's exactly what I've been looking for. They're currently sold out in S/M so I'm gonna have to wait for this purchase. £15.00 Buy it here.

Lastly, you can never have too many boots. My boyfriend always says that I have too many shoes or he moans if I even glance at a pair whilst shopping. I saw these ankle boots from Miss Selfridge and fell in love. I bought a pair of ankle boots from there last year and they've lasted me so well. I love the suede and leather look and the gold detailing completes them. £45.00 Buy them here.

Lush Wishlist Under £40

lush wishlist 2016

I'm not a massive fan of Lush like the majority of people but I do like their products. I know that buying quite a few things from Lush ends up being expensive. So, I've put together a wishlist of products that I've had my eye on for a while which costs less than £40. Suffering with dry lips, I have been wanting a decent lip scrub that works. After reading the reviews online, I decided that I most definitely have to make a trip to Lush to purchase this. And, it's bubblegum flavoured! The question is, will I actually treat my lips or end up eating it? Hah. £5.50

I tried a bath oil for the first time a few weeks ago and I loved it. I guessed that Lush would sell bath oils for a reasonable price and then I found this, the razzle dazzle. I love the name, I love the glitter and it just looks so relaxing and fun at the same time. Is that even possible? £2.00

I've tried a few bath bombs from Lush before and I am honestly entertained when they do their thing after you plonk it in the bath. Dragons egg looks really pretty and by how the scent is described (jasmine and citrus), I think I would absolutely love it. £3.75
Another bath bomb on my list is the intergalactic, I have heard so many people rave about this one. But after watching videos of it, I now know why. My sister has this written on her birthday list. Mind if I borrow a bit? £4.25

After owning the comforter bubble bar, I really wanted to give the shower gel a go. The bar smells absolutely gorgeous so I assume that they smell the same. The shower gel also looks shimmery which is good, shimmer and glitter is my thing. I'm actually running out of shower gel so it may be time to stock up. £9.95 per 250g

After trying out the Marilyn hair treatment, I have been wanting to try out a similar but different one. I came across h'suan wen hua, which I can't pronounce by the way. It's full of nourishing ingredients to improve your hairs condition. Being bleach blonde and with the weather changes, my hair can go quite dry. So, this would be perfect right now. £9.75 per 225g

Kiko Milano Wishlist

Kiko milano wishlist

I have been very fond to try Kiko products for quite some time now. As soon as I checked out Kiko's website, I fell in love with all of the products, I wanted everything. The packaging is so neat and presentable, I just love the colour combinations on different products.

The first product that caught my eye was the purifying mask. Being honest with you, I didn't have a clue that Kiko Milano sold skin care. So I was extremely pleased when I found this, especially as it's a remineralising mask for combination to oily skin types. There's also other beauty masks to suit other skin types which is a must! With fantastic reviews, this primer is ideal for combination to oily skin which is perfect for me. I absolutely love trying out new primers and comparing them. I truly loved the look of the invisible powder to fix makeup. It's transparent and it's anti-shine which is fab for my oily skin!

I love this simple lipstick, precisely in the shade 'Marsala'. All of the other shades are beautiful too, but if I had to pick just one it would be this one. Another lip product I have my eye on is the double match lipstick and lipliner. It's a two in one, who would complain? The colour 'Cool Rose' itself is so pretty, it's a lovely nude pink, it's so me! To go with these lovely lip products, I've eyed up this gorgeous shimmery metallic eyeshadow. It's meant to be a creamy powder eyeshadow with a metallic look, which I loved the sound of! I just couldn't choose between the colours though. I couldn't leave Kiko without making space on my wishlist for blush. So lastly, I found a beautiful matte blush. I am quite pale but I think that this shade will go perfect with my skin tone.

Purifying Mask - £5.90
Smart Lipstick (926 Marsala) - £3.90
Rebel Bouncy Blush (02 Adorable Pink) - £4.90
Double Match Lipstick & Lipliner (01 Cool Rose) - £7.90
Invisible Powder - £11.90
Mat Base Corrector Primer - £8.90
Metallic Shine Eyeshadow (02 Absolutely Rose) - £3.40

Blogmas Day 12 : Dear Santa...

Ok, so this is probably the smallest Christmas wishlist you've ever seen. Every year I don't really want much so this is a normal list for me. Lets be honest though, there's quite a few pricey items on here too. 


I knew that I was going to get a new laptop as I have needed one for quite a while now. The one I'm currently using is four years old, it's not the best but I'm so surprised at how well it's doing! Also, I own nothing Urban Decay and I have had my eye on the Naked 3 palette for ages. 

Have I ever mentioned that I love these Pandora earrings!? Maybe just because I have an obsession with bows, I don't know. Also, how cute are these pyjamas from Boux Avenue? They just look so cosy! Lastly snow fairy, I love this stuff, it smells SO good! It also makes a perfect Christmas present too.

Summer 2015 Wishlist

summer wishlist


Hello lovelies!

With summer now here I had to make a summer wishlist! On the plus side, I can't believe the amount of good weather we've had recently.

As I'm very pale, I like to have a tan in the summer months, like everyone else. But, I don't tan that easily. So, I like to have a fake tan and it also gives a lovely glow. Cute accessories like sunglasses and anklets makes me feel so much more summery too. I always find it hard to find the perfect pair of sunglasses to suit my face. I have quite a round face - as much as I love all the huge sunglasses, they just don't suit me.

I've also been loving crop tops and bralets recently, they go with everything! I'm also loving white and pastel colours for the summer. I went into New Look the other day and I saw these gorgeous white heels. I thought that they'd look lush with a crop top and some cute shorts or a maxi dress. I'm definitely thinking about going back to the store and buying these heels.

I will leave direct links below to everything listed in the picture above, just in-case you would like to add any of these to your summer wishlist.


Peachy Passionfruit Body Spray - Superdrug
Pink Crochet Crop Top - Miss Pap
Lipstick 'Lovestruck' - Topshop
St Moriz Tanning Mousse - St Moriz
Cheryl Eyelure Lashes - Superdrug
VO5 Tame and Shine Spray - Boots
Kerry Silver Tone Watch - Michael Kors
Daisy Scrunchie - Topshop
Anklets - Accessorize
Tortoise Sunglasses - Miss Guided
White Caged Platform Heels - New Look
Lee Stafford Argan Oil - Boots


Are you ready for summer?

May Wishlist

May wishlist

Hi lovelies!

As there are so many things that I have had my eye on lately, I thought that I would make a wishlist for this month. Ever since I found out that Sam Faiers was bringing out a book I was so excited. I love this woman so much and I cannot wait to get my hands on it! I keep telling myself that I can't buy it yet because I'm still currently reading a book and I'll give my current book up and start reading my new one and I can't do that.

I have also been online clothes shopping and I have found quite a few lovely things that I would like to own myself. I just love the look of kimonos at the minute and with cute florally designs on them. But, I found this gorgeous black one with gorgeous lace detailing at the bottom and on a plus side - it goes with EVERYTHING because it's black!

I also own nothing which is Real Techniques and I need another foundation brush so I thought I'd check out the Real Techniques section in Superdrug and the price of this brush is so good!
I'm very fussy about sunglasses. It also doesn't help when I have a small face either because it narrows my choices down. But, I found these beautiful pair of sunnies from Monsoon. I just love everything about them. The colour also fits in with the spring/summer season.

Let me know your thoughts on any of the items I've mentioned.
Thanks so much for reading, I'll leave the links to the items below.
