Summer Clothing Wish List | Topshop, ASOS, New Look and More!

You know a week or so ago the UK were experiencing a heatwave? Well the warmer weather got me browsing online for summer clothes as I don't own many pieces suitable for the warmer weather. Today I thought i'd share with you ten pieces I've got my eye on ranging from denim basics to tasseled accessories. Apparently I like a lot of blue and tan at the moment also!



1. Button Front Denim A-Line Skirt- Topshop £28.00
These skirts are everywhere at the minute and I can understand why. They're classic, casual and will suit a range of body shapes. I love this colour denim too!


2. Camel Felt Floppy Hat- Topshop £28.00
These are also very in at the moment. I love how floppy hats can make an outfit look well put together but also can be very handy for shading your face from the sun and preventing you from overheating. I think this camel colour could take you right through to the Autumn also so you'll get your moneys worth.

3. Mid Blue Ripped Jeans- Topshop £42.00
Another Topshop Denim piece but how nice are these jeans!? I've not owned ripped jeans before and i'm not sure I could pull them off but I love these, especially the colour! I've heard the Jamie jeans are supposed to be really comfortable and keep their shape also.

This bag looks perfect for festivals. I'm not going to one this year unfortunately but if I was, i'd definitely be taking this one. Tassels and fringing just remind me of summer festivals and I think this would be perfect with the sandals I mentioned previously.


5. Cold Shoulder Frill Vest- George @ Asda £14.00
I saw this vest in store when doing the food shop with my mum, I know- i'm cool right? It was such a lovely blue colour and I regret not picking it up now. I think i'll have to go back for this as I think it'll be ideal to just throw on with jeans and sandals and then you're ready to go. This actually comes with a long statement necklace which is nice but I believe it can be removed also.


6. Rust Suedette Cami- New Look £9.99
Suede is really in at the minute and I think it will be this Autumn too. I love how easy these camis are to throw on with jeans, although they can also be tucked into skirts and shorts this summer. This is a little different to your typical chiffon cami and I think it would be good for layering in the Autumn. 


7. Round Tortoiseshell Sunglasses- Anthropologie £24.95
I love tortoiseshell. I have a similar pair of sunglasses to these, they're just a little thicker and black and I love wearing them. You can never have too many sunglasses, well you probably could but two pairs wouldn't hurt eh? I'd really like these but i'm sure i'll be able to find a pair very similar in Primark for under a fiver.


This is so pretty, similar to the denim one I mentioned previously but I think this would be more appropriate for work and occasions where you have to be a little more dressy. Don't get me wrong this would be lovely worn casually also! I love the scallop hem as it's something a little different. 

9. Suede Fringed Sandals- ASOS £25.00
I love these. I actually had some similar from H&M a few years ago and I've worn them to death. I need a pair of tan suede fringed sandals back in my life so these would be perfect. These look super comfortable too!

10. Leather Fringed Trim Loafers- New Look £29.99
I love how smart/casual loafers can be. I especially like these pointed cream ones from New Look and I think they'd look great with the majority of items I've mentioned previously. Ooh these would be very pretty office attire too!

And that's my summer wish list! I'm sure lots of this I wont be getting but that's why it's a wish list. I can dream, haha!

What's on your current wish list?

High-End Beauty Wishlist | Five Most Wanted Products!

First of all i'd like to apologise for my lack of blogging recently, things have got pretty hectic while coming to the end of my course at college. I'm still not finished but my work load should calm down as I've just got one more portfolio to hand in as a first submission. I've also been applying for full-time jobs for when I qualify and although it's time consuming and pretty frightening, i'm excited to start working full-time to hopefully be able to buy some of these products to come..


I was so excited to try this mascara as I had read lots of reviews saying it was amazing for lengthening and giving your lashes a lift that will stay all day long, which was just what I needed. I picked up the Elle magazine as it was exclusive, free with the magazine before it was available to buy full-sized. You can my thoughts on it here, (hint: I love it, which is why is why it's on my wish list to buy). I'm still not out of the sample so I can tell the full-size will last ages so £19.50 will be well spent.

2. Origins High Potency Night-A-Mins Moisturiser
I received this in an Origins Sample Set that I bought in the January Sales, you can see my thoughts on some of Origins best-selling products here.
 I didn't have a night specific moisturiser before this and I can honestly see the difference this has made to my skin. Through the winter and during the change in seasons I get some dry patches on my skin which I can't seem to shift with my usual moisturiser and exfoliator so this has become an essential in my night-time routine and I couldn't be without it now as it disperses across the face easily, sinks in quickly and gives your skin the hydration it needs. I've got the smallest amount left in my sample and again it has lasted me ages so this will be a good investment at £34.50 for 50ml.

3. Liz Earl Cleanse and Polish
I feel as though everyone and their dog has tried this, except me. I've had my eye on this for ages and i'm still not too sure why I haven't picked it up already. I love using hot cloth cleansers as I really like how they feel on my face and I find it relaxing. This is supposed to work for most skin types so will be perfect for my moody skin, it's supposed to be gentle yet remove all traces of makeup which is great as nobody likes to be too harsh on their skin. Once I've finished my current cream cleanser i'll definitely look at picking this up, priced at £15.50 for a starter kit. I'm sure you'll see a review if I love it. 

4. MAC Lipstick in Fast Play
Yes, i'm still yet to try a MAC lipstick. I just haven't got the budget to spend £15.50 on a lipstick but i'm hoping i'll be able to part with my money soon. There are so many lipsticks from MAC i'd like to try but after plenty of narrowing down I've decided Fast Play should be my first purchase as it's not quite your typical brown/nude and looks very wearable which is what you'd like if you were spending £15.50 on a lipstick. 

5. The Balm NUDE'tude Eyeshadow Palette
I love a good nude/neutrals palette and I know everyone loves the Urban Decay Naked palettes, though I feel I could live without them as I've discovered and tried the affordable alternatives which I love (click here if you'd like to find out more). This palette features a range of browns, bronzes, pinks and a few others, but what I particularly like about these is how highly pigmented they are when swatched and the diverse range of looks you could create. I've also never tried anything from The Balm so I may have to very soon, this is priced at around £30 depending on where you shop.

And that's it for my five most wanted high-end products.
What high-end products would you like? 
I'm sure there's lots you're all lusting for just like me, so let me know in the comments below!

What I'm Wishing For- My 18th Birthday | Wish List


As my 18th Birthday is just around the corner, I am slightly nervous but so excited, today I thought i'd bring to you my 18th Birthday Wish List. I've been asked a lot by my family and friends recently what I would like and I couldn't think of much apart from the usual 18th gifts and things that aren't physical gifts, after a long while of thinking I've put together a list to share with you guys today. 

Now you can't have it all but you can wish for it right?

1. To spend time with family and friends, with an emphasis on family.

My families relationship isn't the greatest, I must admit. So this year i'd like them and myself to make the effort to spend time with my immediate family AND the extended family that I don't see on a regular basis, whether this be going out for food or at a last minute family gathering. 
Due to leaving school a couple of years ago(I know I can't believe it myself either), I rarely see my friends but we've made sure that we'll spend each others 18th Birthdays together. For mine we're going to be staying over night in London which calls for sight seeing(though we've seen it before), shopping, eating and laughs. I cannot wait!



2. Something sentimental, although not too obviously 'I'm 18'
By this I mean i'd like a piece of jewellery to keep that doesn't feature the typical 18 charm. After lots of browsing I came up with to beautiful items that i'd love! I'm not expecting either of these though I have hinted. First is the gorgeous dainty necklace which features disks that you can choose any letters or symbols of your choice to go on there. I'd love my initials as I've never had a piece of jewellery with my name on and it comes in silver, gold and rose gold, i'm edging more towards rose gold though. 
The second piece is slightly pricey as my family don't tend to do birthdays big but I can dream right!? How gorgeous is this dainty rose gold Swarovski bracelet? Perfect for everyday where and has a hint of sparkle which I love. 

3. Although I would also like something typically '18th Birthday'.
I'm pretty sure its necessary for everyone who hits the 18th milestone to receive the typical key to the door, Me to You teddy or the champers glass featuring a glittery 18. 

4. Beauty Books.
There's a good few beauty books i'd like after reading Lauren Conrad Beauty(review: here) but they're something I don't want to buy for myself, I'm not sure why. I've heard lots about the Sali Hughes Pretty Honest book and it sounds right up my street, I'd also love the Bobbi Brown Makeup Manual. 

5. Perfume, I'm all for it.
Perfume is not something I've really dabbled with but after discovering what I think is the most beautiful scent, Giorgio Armani Si and running very low on it, I'd love another. There's also a few others I'd like to try including the Molecule 01 perfume by  Escentric Molecules and a more affordable option that I love from The Body Shop- Madagascan Vanilla Flower Eau De Toilette. 

6. Flowers.
Only once I've been bought flowers by my sister to say Thank You and I find that pretty sad as I love flowers haha! I'd be happy with any bunch but I love yellow Roses and pink Peonies. 

And that's it for my 18th Birthday Wishlist, like I said you can't have everything so just a couple of these things mentioned and i'd be over the moon! I'm planning on doing a 'What I got for my Birthday' post so subscribe via bloglovin' using the button on the right hand side of this post if you'd like to keep updated. 


When is your birthday and whats on your wish list? Let me know in the comments below!

Autumn Fashion Wishlist.

Hello!
I've been having a browse on a few websites to find some pieces for my Autumn/Winter wardrobe. I've found a few pieces that I love and would definitely like to incorporate into my wardrobe so I thought i'd share with you what I've got my eye on!


1. A floral shirt.
I absolutely love those slightly ugly looking florals printed onto an oversized shirt. While I was browsing Topshop I found this beauty, I love the colours as they're perfect for Autumn with a little monochrome so will be super easy to style during the colder months with a jumper, jeans and a staple pair of ankle boots!

2. Ripped black jeans.
I've saw these everywhere and I love the look of them, slightly edgy yet as they're black again they're easy to style! I've wanted a pair of Joni jeans for a while as they're right up my street, I love high waisted bottoms! Also i'm wanting a pair of black jeans for winter and for everyday casual wear, so these are just what I want put into 1 pair of jeans, perfect!

3. Cut out ankle boots.
I forgot about these when purchasing my black ankle boots this year, a staple in my wardrobe. I'm so gutted as I saw these a while ago and said i'd get them for Autumn/Winter yet they completely slipped my mind when shopping online. I love the cut out on these boots, although they won't be practical in the rain they'll still look cute with either knitted tights or frilly socks. I might have to pick these up too as i'll be able to wear them throughout the spring and summer too!

4. A tartan flannel shirt.
This again is another staple for Autumn/Winter. I didn't really get on the tartan band wagon last year but this year I sure have! I love the many ways a tartan shirt can be styled and i'm sure i'll get a lot of wear out of one. In a bid to step out of my comfort zone, I've been looking at red tartan as red is a colour I rarely wear!

5. A mustard cable-knit.
Mustard is such a perfect colour for Autumn especially, although I'm sure this will come in handy during the Winter as it's a classic cable-knit jumper so it'll be very cosy! I love the colour mustard, though i'm not too sure if it'll suit my ghostly white complexion, my fingers are crossed however as I really want to purchase this number!

6. Dogtooth.
Dogtooth can make an outfit of basics look great, so this scarf is no exception! This will be perfect to throw on to make my outfit look more well put together and to keep me warm of course! I love that it is monochrome also, a trend that'll be sitting comfortably this Autumn/Winter.

7. Velvet Scrunchies.
I love the 90s trends that are coming back, although I was a late 90s kid so I didn't get to rock them all back then, though my mum did love to throw my hair into a pineapple with a scrunchie so! Scrunchies look super cute in the hair as they give that little something rather than the plain black hairband, so I think i'm going to try and make one work this year. Here's a velvet black one that i'm sure will go with plenty of my outfits, but is a little different with the bow added to it!

And that's a round up of whats on my current 'Want' list this month, I'm sure i'll be purchasing a few of these as they'll make great additions to my wardrobe and i'm sure i'll get a lot of wear out of them. Stay tuned to see what I buy by clicking the link on the right of my blog to follow me on bloglovin. Thank you if you do, comment your blog below and i'll be sure to check it out and follow!

Until next time...

What I've Accomplished this Summer | Summer Bucket List

Hello!
As I said in my previous 'Summer Bucket List' here, that I would do an updated post on what I've accomplished this Summer so here it is!

1. To spend as much time outside and make the most of warmer weather and just being outdoors in general.   Done! I've definitely spent more time outdoors in the sun, especially when I went away with my family- most of the day we were outdoors and enjoying the weather!

2. Catch up with old school friends, of course! I really have not seen them enough through the academic year so I will definitely get my planning head on and get organising! Hopefully some day trips including London or Bristol-shopping, visiting the beach(I stress visiting, not actually going onto the beach as I hate sand!) and just spending more time together!  Another one to check off my list! I haven't spent as much time as i'd like with them over the summer, mainly due to holidays and working but we've been out together a few times and i'm sure the next time will be not too far away!

3. Continue working hard and stop procrastinating! I've heard that Pisces are hard workers but even harder procrastinators and I truly live up to that trait! I have work to do over the summer for the biggest assignment of my course, so I need to get that done and out of the way but I've kept putting it off!  I completed the work I had to do over summer. I also got my exam result back, I finished my first college year with an overall A, yay!


4. To start Pen-palling! I've wanted to do this for a while now and bringing my parents around to the idea is proving harder than I expected! 
-I've still not done this but I completely respect my parents views, in the mean time I've been enjoying making friends and generally conversing with others on social media!


Dawlish Warren- please note this is not my photo, you can find it here(credit to the photographer Gary Reggae)
5. Mentioning my parents there, I'd also like to spend more time with my family! Especially appreciating my sisters as the eldest is moving out this summer, and I don't see much of my other sister as she's either at her boyfriends house or will be working! I'm also warming to the idea of visiting England and Plymouth area in particular to spend a week or two away with family and in general investigate the area as this is somewhere I'd like to go to Uni! I've definitely spent a lot of time with my family over the summer, especially my sisters who have now both moved out! We generally catch up via whatsapp and go shopping together, my favourite!
I've also been to South England with my family, it was so nice to get away from Wales and I really enjoyed spending each day with them. I also visited Plymouth the area that I wanted to go to Uni, i'm not too keen on it but neither am I to the whole idea of uni now!


6. Talking about Uni, aye smooth transitions! I'd like to attend at least 1 Uni open day, as other colleges seem to have done so much more to do with Uni and my college have done nothing! 
-I could sort of check this off but i'm not going to as technically I haven't done that this summer. Although I have booked to go to one open day at the end of this month in Bath at Norlands College(a nanny college). I'd love to go there but realistically, it won't be affordable as it is private! I'm not too sure whether i'm going to go to uni anymore, I don't know what i'd like to do after I've finished my course.

7. I'd like to do something to my hair, it's been the same boring growing out colour for about 2 years. It's also changed to a mix of light brown, coppers and blondes! I'm not enjoying it and would like to go a lighter ashy blonde colour!
-Oops this is another thing I haven't completed, to be quite honest I totally forgot about it. I still have an unopened Ombre kit, who knows I may do that soon!

8. To always consider healthier options. Now i'm not exactly over the moon with my weight, i'd like to loose a little and just get fitter and healthier in general. Summer is fab for that as I love salads in the warmer weather!  I haven't lost weight, although I've done a lot of salad eating this summer and a lot of walking! I can't exactly check this off my list because I've had a few snacks that are considered bad. Although the only reason i'm crossing this off as I've decided to get myself into gear and start to walk to college again when it's not raining too much!

9. To change something in my life, whether this be just saying 'Yes' to more, getting a new job, or even changing my room around to start-a-fresh. 
-I've not got a new job or changed my room around, I can't believe I thought changing my room around counted as saying 'Yes', maybe it does because I can be lazy, oops! Although I've said yes to a lot more things, by experimenting with new styles, clothes and makeup and stepping out of my comfort zone when I think I cannot do something, for example I played a round of golf for the first time, and went for a rather long walk in the country side to clear my head!

10. Last but certainly not least, to re-vamp my blog! I've had a little play around to see how I can make my blog more appealing for the time being but i'd really like to change the layout and 'theme' of how it looks, considering the colours etc!
I feel like i've been a lot more experimental with my blog posts, including more lifestyle and fashion posts rather than my typical beauty related post! I've also been experimenting and made a new header for my blog, I wasn't sure on it at first but I love it now!

Let me know what you'd like to see here on my blog!

Until next time...

Where i'd like to travel! | Travel Bucket List

Hello!
It's always been at the top of my Bucket List to travel! So seeing as i'm away and my last post was travel related 'What's in My Travel Makeup Bag' I thought i'd continue with the travel theme until I get back on Saturday(23rd). Today I've put together a list of where i'd like to travel, originally it was going to be 5 places I want to travel to the most, but my lucky number is 6 and I like to do things in 6s. I can't help it!


Disney World
Source: here.
Florida
Source: here.
First up is somewhere I've wanted to go for as long as I can remember, America! Now I know that's very vague as America is such a big place but I've decided it'd have to be Florida. Not only it seems like the place to go to in America but the reason i'd like to go so much is because of Disney Word! I'm such a huge fan of Disney and as cliche as it seems it's always been a dream of mine, everything just seems so magical!
Of course the only reason i'd like to go is because of Disney, the shopping as well! America seems to have such amazing stores such as Brandy Melville, Sephora and of course Target and Walmart!

Mykonos
Source: here.
Mykonos
Source: here.
I'd love to go to Greece again from a young age Greece has very much appealed to me! When I was about 6/7 I remember it was a popular holiday destination and it stemmed from there. Not only does the Greek Island's look beautiful, I love Grecian-esque fashion and living- so beautiful and sophisticated! 
Also after seeing on Zoella her photo's from Mykonos, it was decided that's exactly where i'd like to go! For some reason, I've always imagined walking the 'street's of Greece with my elder sister so hopefully that'll happen in the not too distant future!

Marrakech, Morocco
Source: here.
Moroccan Marekts
Source: here.
Another warmer weather orientated destination is Morocco! I looove the sound of Morocco, it seems so different to a usual holiday destination and that definitely appeals to me! I don't know a lot about Morocco but I do know Marrakech is the popular destination. I'd really like to see the culture of Morroco and visit the markets! Again I love Moroccan inspired home living so I think it'd be so nice to visit for some inspiration and pieces! Also this was 6th on Trip Advisers top destinations, and you know how I feel about 6 my lucky number- it's fate!

Thailand
Source: here.
Thailand
Source: here.
Last but not least of the warmer climates is Thailand! Thailand has only recently been added to my wish list after seeing the Kardashians visit there! Of course I realise where they visited and stayed would be waaay out of my budget but Thailand in general just looks so beautiful! I'd love to experience the living and food of the country as it seems so amazing, although i'm very fussy I definitely wouldn't give it a miss!

Lapland
Source: here.
The Northen Lights, Lapland
Source: here.
Somewhere more at the other end of the scale is Lapland in Finland! After watching a programme around Christmas time a few years ago where a family spent their Christmas in Lapland, I was sold! It looks so beautiful and the ideal place to spend a family Christmas(my favourite time of the year), especially with children! This is somewhere i'll probably go a long while away now when I have my own family(I can dream), I'd love to see the Ice Hotel, the Northern Lights- can you imagine!? That'd be crazy! And of course, Santa!

German Christmas Markets
Source: here.

Germany
Source: here.
Another place i'd like to spend Christmas and the last on my list of 6 is Germany. I'm not too sure if I've mentioned before but I have German relatives and my Nan who I miss dearly always spoke about where she was from and how much she loved it, so i'd love to visit to see and learn more about her background! It would be so lovely to meet family I've never met before to spend Christmas with them also! I'd really like to visit the German Christmas Markets as I've been told by my Auntie who's been a few times that they're great! Like I said Christmas is my favourite event so this would be ideal!



Where would you like to travel? What's on the top of your list? Let me know in the comments below!

That's all for now, i'll talk- well type rather, next time!

The Summer Wishlist 2014

Hello!
Today I thought i'd share with you what i'm hoping to get done and dusted this summer seeing as we've recently had quite a nice few days, the weather has put me in the mood! So that's what i'll be sharing with you today and I'll get straight into it!


1. To spend as much time outside and make the most of warmer weather and just being outdoors in general. 

2. Catch up with old school friends, of course! I really have not seen them enough through the academic year so I will definitely get my planning head on and get organising!

I also got my exam result back, I finished my first college year with an overall A, yay(squealing)!


4. To start Pen-palling! I've wanted to do this for a while now and bringing my parents around to the idea is proving harder than I expected!

So there you have it, a run down of what i'd like to get done this summer! I may even come back to this post and cross off what I've achieved, or do a completely new blog post to tell you and reflect on the summer.
I hope you've enjoyed hearing what i'd like to get done this summer, i'd love to know what's on your Summer 2014 Wish List! Let me know in the comments below or link me to your blog if you've done it and i'll definitely check it out! 

Until next time,

April Wish List

Hello you lovely people reading this, today I thought i'd do a short and simple post which will be my "wish list"- Now I use quotation marks as these are items that I will most probably buy at the end of the month so they aren't as such a wish. But never-the-less these are still a few items that I have my eyes on.

First up is Jelly shoes. I know there will be some very mixed opinions with these, but personally I love them! These are shoes I grew up with, so why the hell not get another pair even though i'm 17. I've heard you can get these super cheap in Primark but I haven't yet been there to check out the colours but i'm thinking I want something simple, black or nude just like these pair. The black are from New Look and the nude pair that i'm falling for are from Dorothy Perkins.

Ooops sorry this blog post isn't going to be catergorised as the next item is something beauty related. I've had my eyes on this for a while and was going to purchase it while it was on sale but completely forgot, and they do not stock it in my local boots. So this is something i'll have to pick up when i'm next in town- the Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water. Originally I wanted to try the L'Oreal version, but after hearing such amazing reviews for this one and getting more for your money, my mind quickly changed!

If you aren't aware but i'm absolutely crazy excited to be seeing McBusted next month with one of my oldest friends so I'm currently on the hunt for something comfortable but pretty cool to wear. I've been loving smock style dresses recently so was thinking a smock dress along with my Topshop snake skin skater shoes. There's a few i've got my eyes on so here's a quick insight to a couple I like. The first again people will have mixed views on it, I'm undecided I sort of love it and hate it at the same time! The second is just a basic which I will probably end up getting regardless!

I've recently been eyeing up so many handbags, i'm lusting over so many from La Moda. The pink one I wanted has disappeared from the website which i'm gutted about but I saw this one and again fell in love! Just how nice is this beige bag, I love the structured tote bags at the moment, I need to get my hands on this one!

                                     


After reading 'throughchloeslens' blog post called 'The Body Shop Wishlist' I gathered that there would probably be a few items added to my own wishlist, and that I was right! First of all is the Vitamin E Cream Cleanser, at £2.50(for the smaller 60ml size to test) I will definitely be picking this up when I am next in town. I'm always on the hunt for new cleansers as my skin type fluctuates so much, I think this will be great for when my skins feeling a little dry and dull to give it a perk!

After scouring The Body Shop website I also came across the Warming Mineral Mask, this is £10 but for a weekly treatment I think it will be worth it. I love masks that warm or tingle as it really feels like they are working, this one warms obviously as the name states. Although my skin can be dry at times I can also get a very oily T-Zone and this mask claims it is oil absorbing so will be perfect for me, also I just think it looks really nice- that's a valid enough reason right?

This was only going to be a quick post but it's turned out pretty lengthy than what I expected, there is a lot more on my wishlist but these are just a few that I thought i'd share!
I hope you've enjoyed me ranting about what i'm wanting- what is on your current wishlist? I'd love to know!

That's all for now, talk soon guys! X

Christmas Wish List!

Hello lovelies!

Ok, seeing as my first blog post was an 'About me' introduction I've been contemplating what to post next. I'm really not sure when I will be posting and what exactly I will be posting but I'm making a start. I thought a Christmas Wish List might give you(if you're actually reading this) some ideas of what to ask for Christmas and it was just something simple to get me into blogging, I'll start off my wish list now!(obviously none of these photos are mine as they are what I am wanting)


1. Lauren Conrad Beauty- I love Lauren Conrad I think she is absolutely stunning, I first came across her when I was about 11/12 and I wanted my hair cut similar to hers. This book looks amazing so it's a must!

2. 1001 Things every teen should know before they leave home- This again is a book and just in case you think I'm leaving home any time soon, i'm most certainly not! I just thought it would be cool to 'educate' myself prior leaving home in the future!

3. Wreck this journal- I'm probably one of the few teens not to have this book! I've wanted it for a while now but its been on my Amazon wish list and I don't want to buy it just in case I get it for Christmas, I want it now though!

4. Make up brushes- Ok aren't these the cutest brushes ever? Come on they're pink! I was never really one for pink, but recently I'm so obsessed with anything pink! I'm not so concerned about my brushes being pink, but I do want good quality ones. Pink brushes would just be a bonus!

5. Lush Products- I don't want any lush products in particular but I would like the 'Cosmetic Warrior' treatment! My skin is terrible at the moment and so oily which leads to spots, so i'd love to try this to get rid of my blemishes! So I don't want any other lush products in particular but the 'Space Girl' bath bomb looks so majestic(Haha did I just say that?!)

6. Jeans- Ok so I am completely in love with Topshop 'Mom' jeans, they are such a cool alternative to the obvious skinny jean! If not i'd also love a pair of 'Joni' jeans because I've always loved high waisted bottoms!

7. Big black bag- I'm in desperate need of a new bag because my newest bag has just broke, not completely but the padlock(it was just for detail) fell off and it's lost! I need a black one because black goes with almost everything, right!? And it needs to be big to carry my files to and from college. I just love this one from Zara and it's only £29.99!

8. Viscose Letter Blouse- I've saw this blouse on a few people and loved it! I pretty much love any shirt and this will be so easy to wear because its monochrome, the letters all over look so cool! I'll probably be snapping one of these up from H&M for just £12.99!

9. Perfume- I'm not particularly asking for Marc Jacobs Daisy but I do really like the smell of it! I was wondering whether you guys could suggest any nice perfumes so I can go and give them a whiff to see if there's any I love! Please comment bellow, I need help!

10. Victoria Pendleton 'Ashwell' bike- This is not actually on my Christmas list as I have already been spoilt this year by having my whole room decorated but I would still love this to go back and for college on, it would make life so much easier, I chose the black bike again because it goes with everything! I adore cruiser bikes they are just so cute, i'd have to get the basket for the front too to chuck my bag in! (I definitely wont get this because i'm hoping to have driving lessons for my 17th and only included this because it had to be an even number of items, probably because I've got OCD or something)

Just to clarify, in no way will I be getting all this and I'm not saying you should ask for all of this because hey times are a little bit tougher, this was just an idea for you guys if you were stuck on what to ask for!

I'm not sure when my next post will be, so until next time!

Thank you for reading! X
