Want Want Want: Summer Accessories

Tuesday, 24 June 2014


1. As you may or may not know, my sister Lauren works at Olivia burton and this Dusty Pink White Dial is the watch catching my eye at the mo, perfect for summer me thinks. Plus, I only have one watch right now and its a rose gold stainless steel, which I adore. However I think everybody should have a leather strap watch to turn to.

2. Coral and mint are possibly my two favourite summer colours ever and right now I am all about trying different hair things and for £5.99 this may very well get added to my collection. Thanks Newlook!

3. Sunglasses and perfume are the two beauty/fashion things I can't stand spending money on. Smelly water and glasses i'll wear for maybe 2 months a year. Boo. However, when I was in Lanzarote I lost my high street sunglasses and it makes me sad because I actually liked them. So maybe I will pick up some decent ones, like these Emporio Armani ones and be done with it?

4. With the current obsession over floral crowns, I feel as though it's about time I picked myself up a little dainty one, and where better than Crown and Glory. I chose this one because you can adjust the size and I have an odd sized head :( ha! Of course it is stunning too, there are so many options on their website right now. Go and have a look.

5. My dream bag is 5 letters long, begins with a P and ends in an A but until I manage to find a spare £1400, high street will have to do. I am currently switching between a black Dune bag and a tan Miss Selfridge bag but I would really like to pick up a medium sized colour block bag, that will be usable for work and going out. I think this one from Oasis is a good find. The delicate change between beige and pale pink and then the pop of mint in the straps is the perfect type of colour blocking. Not too in your face, and wearable with a lot of outfits. I'm always glad to find a bag with a removable shoulder strap too. 

Eeek, so many pastels in this post, it makes my heart swoon. It's a good job I haven't been paid yet otherwise 60% of the post may have already been purchased!

Spring wishlist: little things

Monday, 10 March 2014

How lush has the weather been this weekend? I know 17 degrees isn't actually really that hot but after a few months of temperatures not going higher than 6 degrees, it has felt crazy warm! It's made me want to buy anything and everything I see that's pastel coloured. So to suppress the urge to go shopping - again, I have made a little spring wishlist.
1. River Island Colour Block Bag - I adore River Island bags, I always think they are well made and they are always big bags which is perfect for me. I love pinks and oranges together, so cute.
2. Revlon Lip Butter in Berry Smoothie - I'm all for bright colour lipsticks but I realised yesterday that I don't yet have a good nude, i'm hoping this lip butter might be my saviour.
3. Topshop Nail Varnish in Unicorn - Last week I dipped my toe into the pool of Topshop make up and bought a lipstick in the shade 'Macaron' which I am in love with and also a green sparkly nail varnish that was a pound in the sale. It was an error to let myself buy them because now I want more and I love sparkly nail varnishes. I think this one is beaut.
4. Yankee Candle in Summer Scoop - I recently nipped up to my local Yankee store to find a new candle, but ended up with an old favourite 'fluffy towels'. However, whilst I was there I had a quick sniff of the new Spring smells and fell head over heels for 'Summr Scoop'. It's fruity and fresh and it will definitely be my next candle purchase.
5. New Look Coral Crochet Ballet Pumps - Bows, laser cut crochet effect and a gorgeous coral colour- what more could I ask for?
Are you guys excited for spring/summer? What's your favourite colour to wear?
