Recent buys!

I have recently been spending quite a bit of money on things that I tell myself I need. These are some of my favourite recent buys. 


I have wanted a cap for a while but haven't been able to find one I really like. I wasn't willing to pay over £20 for one as I know I wouldn't wear it all the time. Then I found this one in Matalan! At a very reasonable £12 I popped it into my basket feeling very happy with myself. I haven't worn it yet as is has done nothing but rain since I bought it, but hopefully I can wear it soon. 


I bought this top from Urban Outfitters in their fabulous sale. Not only was it a sale item but I also managed to still use my student discount card! For £9 it was definitely worth it, and its so soft! 


This is my favourite item that I have recently bought. I bought it from Topshop for £26 and I thought that was a great price. Its so comfortable and soft and you can dress it up with heels and a clutch bag, or dress it down with some tights and chelsea boots. 


This item is my bargain item. Originally from Topshop I thought it was going to be quite expensive but at an incredible £7.99 I couldn't resist. I bought it from The British Heart Foundation charity shop and my mother keeps trying to steal it, which means I have to wear it all the time!



I am not really the one to celebrate Halloween, I much prefer Christmas and New Year but I couldn't resist buying this munchkin pumpkin when I saw him. He is the tiniest little thing but I think he does the job. 


Finally I would like to wish everyone a Happy Halloween! I hope you all have fun trick or treating and dressing up!

Seeing Spots








Cardigan: Primark - Dress: H&M - Socks: Topshop - Converse: Schuh - Bag: Tophop
I'm wearing a dress!!!! It isn't very often I wear dresses unless I'm going on a night out so this is something a bit different. I am a lover of jeans as I think they are something you can dress up or dress down but with this weather I couldn't resist wearing this lovely spotty dress. I bought this from H&M last year. I wasn't sure about it to start with but I loved the look of it. When I got home and tried it on it was so comfortable and the fabric hugs you in all the right places. My sister and I went for a walk so I decided to wear my converse. Usually I wear my sandals but I left them at uni :(

Holiday potential buys!


 So I am in my third and final year of University and my friends and I have planned to go on holiday to celebrate when we finish our exam. I thought it would be ice to share some of my possible buys for my holiday, and summer in general. I apologise for the change of font on the last part....I am a techno-moron and have no idea what happened or how I change it so please forgive me for that. Hope you enjoy!

Jumpsuit: £29.99 - Shorts: £14.99 - Hat: £7.99 - Jellies: £9.99 - Clutch: £8.99 - 5 Pack of Bracelets: £5.99
 So I am loving New Look at the moment. I think they have some wonderful new summer clothes in all at reasonable prices which is even better!
The jumpsuit caught my eye because it would be perfect for a night out when the weather is still warm but can have a cool wind in the evening. It is elegant and casual so could be worn in the day or evening.
I have always wanted a straw hat for summer and at £7.99 you can't really say no!
Jellies are making a comeback people!!!! This is music to my ears as I used to love my jellies. I had a sparkly heeled pair that I used to wear to school and I adored them.
The clutch bag is so simple but a lovely colour. I have so many items that will go with this bag.


Shirt: £29 - Playsuit: £35 - Bikini: £34 - Nail Polish: £5 - Bag: £40
 So...Topshop never fails to amaze me. I always find something I love in this shop and I think my favourite piece here is the bikini. How amazing is this bikini?
The nail polish is brilliant and will look super when you're reading a book by the side of the pool. As a bonus...it matches the bikini!!!
The shirt and playsuit are gorgeous and I love the detail on the playsuit.

Dress: £29.99 - Shoes: £7.99 - Shorts: £19.99 - Kimono: £29.99

So I have been slightly disappointed with H&M lately and have only managed to find these items from the entire website that I like. However, these items are fabulous! I love the detail on the kimono and how the dress would hang on you. The shade of the shorts is perfect for summer! You could wear the dress in the day or the evening. In the day you could wear sandals to make it casual, and in the evening could wear heels to make it more elegant. The kimono would be ideal for the evening when strolling along the beach or reading a book with a brew on the balcony.

Have you been or are you going on holiday this year?

Charity shop love!


Dress: Charity Shop - Cardigan: New Look

I bought this dress from a charity shop and I absolutely love it! I love the colours and the bands that go across the dress. It is also one of those dresses that you can dress up or dress down really easily. It isn't very often I find something in a charity shop that I really like but I have to say that this dress will be worn a hell of a lot!

Read all about it!







 Dress: New Look - Sandals: Topshop

So I am not usually a 'frilly' type of person, but when I saw this dress I knew that I had to have it. I bought it whilst I was at University in Chester for £19.99 in New Look. I usually wear it with my black gladiator sandals that I bought from Topshop (Pictured), but occasionally I wear it with my converse. 

So this weather has been lovely!!!! I have spent many hours sunbathing and reading my book. I am currently reading the Game of Thrones books. I love the TV series so I decided to read the books too. I am on the second to last one so hopefully I will have finished soon!!! Is anyone else reading at the minute? 

Hope you are all enjoying the sun. It is supposed to get hotter, especially in the South so be careful and don't forget your suncream!

Rainy Days!









Dress: Dorothy Perkins - Blazer: H&M - Socks: Primark - Boots: H&M

Hello Dolls! The heavens have opened and drenched everyone in rain the past few days. I however was feeling summery still so opted for a flowery dress and boots. It is not very often that I wear boots with dresses but I thought they looked quite nice together. 
The dress I actually got given to me by my sister Amy(click here to view her blog). Despite her being the younger sister, we usually pinch each others clothes. The boots were bought for me by my Mom when she came to visit me at University in Chester a few weeks ago. They were in the sale for an amazing £5!!! 
I apologise if a few of my pictures haven't turned out right...I don't usually do anything with them and am still learning he ins and outs of things. 
Hope everyone is enjoying the rain!!! Personally I love going outside in the rain, getting all wet on a long walk and then coming back to a warm blanket, a book and a nice cup of tea!
