Lush, oh Lush why do you have to drop a new collection right when i'm trying to save as much money as I can?! After reading Makeup Savvy's recent post and 'oohing' over all the Lush bits, I too thought i'd pull together a Lush shopping list of all the Lush bits I want in my life, but currently am resisting purchasing!

A few weeks back I saw a few of my fellow blogging gals at the Plymouth Lush store preview night and oh my god was I awe at the new products that were being demoed. It's definitely safe to say that as soon as the Lush Halloween and Christmas collections launch online then that means autumn winter has arrived and it happening.

One product i've wanted to try for an absolute age is the Sleepy Body Lotion (£7.95) purely because every blogger on the planet has raved about how much they love this body lotion. Now i'm typically not a body lotion kind of gal, but having given this a sniff when I was last in Lush I knew that i'd love this. With my skin getting somewhat dry during the winter months I already know that applying this to those dry areas will be an absolute saviour! Another body product that caught my eye whilst browsing their website is their Cup O' Coffee Face & Body Mask (£7.25) even tho I am not a huge fan of coffee, I know this will work wonders on a hangover when my skin is in need of a big pick me up!

Another product launch that got me excited and intrigued is their hair oil treatments and one that caught my eye is their Hair Doctor Hair Oil Treatment (£6.50) as it is said to revive the hair and the scalp to ensure shine and softness. As I always say, my hair is quite damaged so i'm always wanting to try out new products to help revive my hair condition, and not having ever tried any hair products from Lush i'm intrigued to see how these work. 

A cult favourite of mine and every Lush customer on the planet is the Snow Fairy scent and this year it seems that Lush have taken it one step further and have made this as eco friendly as possible by totally getting rid of the packaging.. interesting. The Snow Fairy Naked Body Conditioner (£8.25) essentially works by wetting the solid block and rubbing it all over your body. I'm so intrigued to see how these work, and i'm loving how Lush really take being as eco friendly as possible so seriously! 

Lastly I couldn't not include a couple of bath products that i'm really intrigued by, as Lush are always pushing the boundaries and making new, exciting products! The one product that instantly caught my eye is their Bubble Spinner (£4.95) which essentially is the Lush version of the fidget spinners that have been an absolute rage this summer just gone, and this just instantly excited me! Finally we have the Rocket Science Bath Bomb (£2.95), which just looks so cool and I'm always intrigued to see what new bath bombs they bring out!

What Lush products are you excited to try out?

Summer is literally my favourite season especially when it comes to fashion as I love how versatile you can be during the summer! Even though I don't have a holiday planned this summer, I will no doubt still be embracing the weather as much as my pale skin will allow me to, but i'm already lusting over all of the striped dresses and embroidered details.

As you'll see from this little wishlist that I have a bit of an obsession with everything striped at the moment, mainly because i'm not a huge fan of colour or overly floral prints. One piece that instantly caught my eye was this Ruffle Striped Sun Dress (£15.36), which for me is literally the perfect summer dress as it can be dressed quite casual in the day, or dressed up with some heels of an evening! Another striped piece that caught my eye was this Striped Short Co-ord (£15.36), as I personally love a good co ord and I really liked the tie back detail to this top, and the shorts looked so comfy and also really flattering! 

I recently added a beautiful denim skirt to my summer wardrobe, and i'm loving styling it up but i'm already wanting to add another to my wardrobe, so when I saw this Button Front Denim Skirt (£15.57) I instantly knew that I need something like this! With outfit styling in mind i've been seeing a lot of these 90's style ribbed tops and of course Zaful have a few, and i've already ordered this Striped Rib Crop Top (£8.08) which i'm so excited for it to arrive so I can style it up with my denim skirt! Another top that really caught my eye was this Floral Embroidered Off Shoulder Top (£11.72), and I absolutely love anything embroidered at the moment, and I thought this would be great to just throw on!

Finally, one thing that I absolutely love Zaful for is their sunglasses as they have some amazing on trend pairs but they are so affordable, and I now have a couple of pairs from them! A new addition that I noticed had come into stock were these Round Chunky Mirrored Sunglasses (£6.17), and I am obsessed! 

Zaful are currently celebrating their third birthday, and in celebration of that they currently have some amazing things going on including some incredible deals and discounts, so make sure to check out those out! They also have a a bunch of giveaways running on their blog where you can win some amazing gift cards to spend on whatever you want, and who doesn't love a good giveaway? If you decide to enter any of their giveaways, make sure to tag my name 'Style & Splurging'!

Have you been doing any summer shopping recently?

As i'm currently on a spending ban, lusting over items is never a good thing but i'm already looking towards the transition to spring with embroidery denim, cute spring like blouses and of course some sandals, as I absolutely love my sandals when the warm spring air rolls in.

I'm currently on the sweater loving hype, and i'm loving all the embroidered sweatshirts that i'm seeing everywhere. This Newlook Embroidered Sweat (£11.50) is so pretty, and I love the cropped style detail to it as I find these type of sweats to be more flattering and work really well with my mom jeans or high waisted jeans. Speaking of jeans, whilst perusing the denim section I came across these beautiful Glamorous Embroidered Mom Jeans (£48), which are giving me serious heart eye emoji vibes. I've seen so many embroidered jeans recently and no doubt I will buying into this trend, as I think they are so cool but an easy trend to wear and style. I also absolutely adore mom style jeans, as the fit is so easy and you can style so many different type of tops with them.

Being someone who works in the fashion industry i'm always clued on the latest trends, and one trend that has evolved quite a bit over the last few seasons is sleeve shapes. Now some sleeve shapes I know would never suit me, but i'm definitely on the hunt to find a few bits with a new sleeve detail that still fits within my personal style. When I spied this Boohoo Wide Sleeve Jumper (£20), which i'm definitely going to be ordering once my spending ban ends as I absolutely love everything about this jumper. The funnel neck, the wide sleeve detailing and the colour, just everything! Another top that has me vibin' for spring is this beautiful Lace Cutwork Top (£35), which is so on point and I can imagine styling this up with those mom jeans come spring time! I also love the subtle balloon sleeve detailing to it.

Another trend i've been loving and is giving all the 80's vibes is the bodysuit trend, as I think they're so easy to style but also so comfortable to wear. I've been spying on some of the more basic bodysuits that can be easily styled with so many different bottoms including jeans, skirts and pleated culottes. This Off Shoulder Wrap Body (£14) is so cheap, but also so on point as it has the off the shoulder wrap detail that i've been seeing everywhere! I definitely want to add a few more basic bodies to my collection as I always find myself throwing them on, and they make my outfits look so much more put together and thought about. One piece that I could see myself easily styling with a more basic body is this Denim Cropped Jumpsuit (£38), which i've seen a fair few of and I think they're so easy to wear! I love that the denim keeps it quite casual, but it could be easily styled up in so many ways!

Finally onto a few accessories that have caught my eye and have me thinking all about spring! Firstly are the swoon worthy Chunky Platform Sandals (£22) that are just beautiful with the rose gold detailing! I've never really been a flatform kinda gal, but I can definitely get on board with these! The last piece i've been lusting over is this Suedette Mini Backpack (£38), which is just so dreamy! I'm currently loving anything and everything that is blush pink, and the suedette fabric to this bag is just so on point for spring! 

With Australia starting to become a glimmer on the horizon, i'm currently scouting out and lusting over far too many bikinis and floaty tops for anyones liking. I've recently come across an absolutely loaded online fashion shop called Zaful, which has an amazing variety of products from clothing, to accessories and even beauty at amazingly affordable prices. So I thought i'd put together a little wish list off all the bits i'm currently lusting over!

I'm a huge lover of pleather jackets, although i'd love to own a real one someday I just can't afford to splash that much cash. When I saw this Beige Leather Crop Jacket (£37.95) I was in awe. I used to own a fake suede leather style jacket and I loved it as it was different but unfortunately it wasn't the easiest thing to clean, so I had to say goodbye to it. This one looks beautiful in quality and would definitely bring something different to my typical monochrome outfits, whilst also keeping me warm!

We all know about this roll neck trend and I haven't really delved into it, but I really want to! I spotted this Plaid Highneck Sweater (£14.52) and instantly wanted it! I love a good check jumper and the grid print to this is so on trend at the moment. I also really like the look of the fit of this jumper, and I could easily style this with so many black ensembles.

Whilst browsing their new in section, I came across this Light Faux Fur Collar Lapel Coat (£49.13) and even though I am a complete coat hoarder, I don't have a coat like this in my collection. I've always wanted a coat with a big fluffy collar to it and the faux fur trend right now is to die for! I just think i'd have to be careful if I were to get this as it could get dirty very easily! Sticking with the faux fur trend, I came across this Grey Longsleeve Faux Fur Coat (£17.87) and I remember the fluffy cardigan trend last year, only it's come back in coat form. This particular piece looks so snuggly and I can just imagine wrapping myself up in it!

What trends are you loving at the moment?

The only fashion related item i've asked for this year is the ASOS Risky Business Boots (£35). I already own these in the plain black version, and have fallen in love with them so much that I had to ask for another pair. I love a good staple boot for winter and these just add a lovely amount of subtle detail to an outfit with the faux croc skin finish. 

The first of the beauty bits comes from one of my favourite brands and this is the Soap & Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Gloss Crayons Gift Set (£16). I've added this onto the boyfriends list of things to get me, as this little set comes with three gloss crayons all in shades that I would wear. I've never tried any of these, so they would be a lovely little addition, and would make a great stocking filler. Another gift set i've got my eye on is The Body Shop Wild Argan Oil Festive Picks (£17) as they've got some really lovely gift sets at the minute, and this one caught my eye. I really want to try the new argan oil range as i've heard some great things and the scent is incredible. Last gift set but a goodie is the Lush Christmas Candy Box (£14.95) as it has a few of my Christmas Lush favourites.

I'm pretty sure every girl has one of the Urban Decay palettes on her Christmas list, and i've got both the Naked2 Basics (£19.80) and the Naked Palette (£33.30). I've wanted the second basics palette ever since it was released as I prefer the shade range compared to the first one, so this one is on the boyfriends list. As for the first naked palette, this is the only one I have not tried or owned a dupe for so naturally my beauty brain needs it. 

I never thought i'd be wanting books for Christmas, but thanks to every blogger out there i've found a couple that i'm lusting over. First up is Not That Kind Of Girl by Lena Dunham (£8.49) and i've seen Essie Button talking about this so much, that she has made me want it. Also an obvious choice, #GirlBoss by Sophia Amoruso (£10.49) as every blogger has featured this in someway on their blog, so again I want it. 

Last but not least is something i've wanted for ages and this is the Breville Blend Active Family Pack (£29.99). I've been really getting into my smoothies, and I hate having to clean my blender day in day out hence why i've gone for the family pack as it contains four shaker bottles, which will suit my lazy ways and it means I can have a smoothie on the go.

What are you wishing for this Christmas?

Starting off with the biggest necesity of the season and that is of course a coat. I spotted this Mint Green Lapel Longline Wool Coat (£27.28) and instantly fell in love with it. It reminds me of one that Topshop did towards the end of winter but I couldn't justify the price tag on that one, but the quality of this one looks amazing for the price tag! Keeping with a pastel theme, I always seem to love the pastel shades in autumn but when I saw this beautiful Blue Sleeveless Pleated Dress (£11.15) I had heart eyed emoji's popping up in my head. I love a good skater dress and everything about this just screams me. The only downside is that this is in the presale, which is really hard to understand but I couldn't not include it. 

This next one is an autumn must have for me as I love to have a really long knit that will also become a blanket when cold. This Grey Long Sleeve Loose Cardigan (£16.54) is perfect for me, even though grey is a little safe, I know it will go with a lot of my already monochrome wardrobe. Something to add to my said monochrome wardrobe is this Black Plaid Loose Chiffon Blouse (£9.81). This style has been floating around for a while now, and i've always sort of steered clear mainly because of the overpriced price tags but this one is a bargain. I could see myself styling this in so many way and it's also light enough to layer a jumper over. 

Last but not least, and yes I had to include a skort in here somewhere as I think they are going to be a staple piece to carry through seeing as everyone went crazy for them over the summer. This White Asymmetrical Geometric Skort (£11.27) is ideal as the white will compliment any sort of colour or print, and will also look great with a cropped jumper and tights combo moving into the winter. 

So those are my picks from She Inside for autumn and moving into winter. I've mentioned before that their prices are amazing, and their shipping doesn't take as long as I thought it would. I think I received my last order within one working week, which is great when it comes to shipping from overseas so definitely check out She Inside.

What pieces are lusting over for autumn?

What I like about She Inside, is that they do some lovely pieces but for a fraction of the price and you can often find similar pieces to that on the high street that have more than likely sold out. Anyway, i've out together a little wish list of a few pieces that i've got my eye on at the moment.

Starting off with this lovely Floral Print Tassel Kimono (£12.01), which is just a stunning piece. What with kimono's being a staple piece at the moment, I could see myself coordinating this into my wardrobe in so many way and would look lovely when on holiday, as you can chuck it on over a bikini or throw it on when it gets colder in the evening. This next piece is one that i've spied for when heading down to the pool or beach, and it is this lovely Arrow Print Jumpsuit (£9.02). This looks super lightweight and would look lovely just chilling around the pool, or taking a stroll around as you wouldn't get too hot. 

This next piece is something i've wanted for ages, but have never found anywhere that stocks it so I was so happy to see that they stock it. I'm of course talking about this lovely White Cut Out Shift Dress (£11.41). The only thing i'd be a little concerned about is the tan lines, or in my case burn lines i'd get from this, but it would look lovely in the evenings. Sticking with white and I spotted this lovely White Short Sleeve Crochet Crop Top (£11.41). I've seen this crochet pattern everywhere at the moment and I can't help but want some of it, and this top would look so nice with some high waisted denim shorts, or even some mom jeans.

These last two pieces are very summery, and not really me but I love them. Firstly is this gorgeous Sunflower Print Vest (£9.02), and I just love the peplum style detail to this. Again you could easily style this up with some shorts or even a nice mini skirt. Lastly is the beautiful Sleeveless Pineapple Print Vest (£8.61), which is just adorable. I'm loving the pineapple print at the moment, and this is so cute!

So those are all the things i'm lusting over from She Inside. Honestly, check out their website as they have some lovely pieces and they are so affordable!

What are you lusting over anything from She Inside?

Now looking at my wish list you can totally tell that i'm more of a beauty girl than a fashion girl and this wish list consists of all the bits and pieces i've been lusting over for quite some time now. So let's get into it!

1. First up is the Soap&Glory Once Upon a Lime Giftset, now if you know me, then you'll know that I love anything Soap&Glory but I particularly like the Sugar Crush range so this is set immediatly caught my eye. Containing all of the Sugar Crush products and a little loofer thing, this set is perfect for me and would make a really lovely Christmas present for anyone you know you also loves Soap&Glory.

2. Next is the Zoeva Nude Palette, now i've already asked my mum for Naked3 Palette this Christmas but i've also been lusting after this one after I saw a few bloggers raving about this. To me it's the perfect nude palette and looking at it i'd use pretty much every shade in this palette and it's only £16 for 28 shades, bargain!

3. Probably the only non beauty item and that is the Black Low Converse. I literally live in my Converse and i've wanted an all black pair for such a long time, they'd go with everything especially as I tend to wear a lot of black/darker colours and I know i'd get a lot of wear out of these.

4. Back to beauty, the next product is the Real Techniques Sam's Picks Set. I have been waiting for RT to release a set like this and now they finally have of course I want it! Containing six brushes that are described as the only brushes you will ever need to create the perfect makeup look. Now I already own two of the brushes in this set, but they are the ones I use the most so i'd happily have more than one of those. I think this set is perfect, especially for someone who loves RT brushes or wants to try out RT brushes.

5. Last up is books, I decided to group these together as i've wanted all of them for quite some time now and they are Lauren Conrad Beauty, Alexa Chung IT and Lauren Conrad Style. After so many people ranting and raving about these books it's got to the point where I need them ha! I also think they'd make great Christmas presents for any beauty/fashion lover and are books that look so good within your book collection.

So that is my Christmas Wish List! I hope this has given you guys some ideas for presents or things that you'd like for Christmas. 

What's on your Christmas Wish List?

A few weeks ago I was watching this BodyTalk video with the PixxiWoo sisters where they basically discussed all things skincare with Caroline Hirons, who if you don't know is a skincare junkie and i've learnt so many things about skincare that I didn't know before. Since then i've been wanting to get my skincare routine sorted and in place, so these are a few product I can't wait to add to my routine.

The first product is the Superfacialist Tea Flower Cleansing Wash, which i've heard so many good things about. This product is one of many made by Una Brennan who is a well known skincare specialist, so I have a lot of faith in this product working really well for me. This cleanser is designed to deep clean congested skin, leaving your skin feeling balanced and healthier, which sounds right up my street and for £8 this cleanser is a right bargain.

Next up is the Hydraluron Moisture Boost from Indeed Labs, which is a hydrating serum that is to be applied before your moisturiser to basically inject much needed moisture into dehydrated skin. My skin can sometimes feel very dehydrated especially during the colder months so this product sounds like it would work really well for my skin. The only downside is this is priced at £25, but Boots often reduce this so i'm probably going to wait until they have some offers on in store.

The next product is one that i'm sure you've all heard a lot about as every beauty blogger out there seems to own this, i'm of course talking about the Origins GinZing Moisturiser. This moisturiser is designed to give your skin an energy boost by hydrating the skin and revving up the skins radiance. I've had a couple of samples of this, which i've now used up but I loved what it did to my skin. I noticed a complete change to my skin almost immediately and my skin has never looked so hydrated. I actually ordered this yesterday as Origins have an amazing offer on at the moment, where you get 3 free samples with any skincare purchase and I got free delivery!!

Lastly is another product i'm sure you've heard of and that is the Emma Hardie Amazing Face Cleansing Balm. As you are supposed to be using 2-3 cleansers in rotation within your skincare routine, this is one that literally every beauty blogger has within their rotation and i've heard so many amazing things about this product. Even though this has quite a hefty price tag, I honestly think it will be completely worth it as this product sounds amazing. Melting off your makeup, whilst cleansing and moisturising your skin.. yes please!

There are a few other products that I would like to add into my skincare, but I think they will be added slowly as I don't want to overload my skin with a load of products it isn't used to.

What skincare products do you want to try out?

Short Sleeve Bold Aztec Dress - Newlook (£17.99), Short Sleeve Floral Tapestry Dress - Newlook (£14.99), Tie Dye 3/4 Sleeve Dress - Newlook (£24), Leather Panelled Dress - Newlook (£16.99)

New Look offer a wide range of flattering and shapely bodycon dresses to suit any girl out there. Offering a variety of different quirky prints and cool detailing at really affordable prices and most, if not all of their dresses are able to be dressed up or down in order to be worn for several different occasions.

Firstly the Bold Aztec Dress is really cool and very on trend with the neon trend that we have seen everywhere recently. I love the brightness of this dress but at the same time isn't too in your face as some neon dresses can be and i'd totally rock this on a night out. Next up is this really cute Floral/Tapestry Print Dress, which would look so nice in the daytime with a pair of sandals and denim jacket. It's one of those prints that really brings something to an outfit and makes it a little more girly. Onto this Tie Dye Dress, now I have been wanting a dress like this for quite sometime now as some of you may know i'm a sucker for tie dye and this is dress no exception, I really love this print! Lastly is this Leather Panelled Dress, which is right up my street. I'm loving the leather insert detailing that we're seeing everywhere, it just adds something to a really basic piece and I could see myself wearing this on several different occasions.

I love a good versatile staple piece and I think a body-con dress is a piece that every girl should have within her wardrobe as they can be worn in so many different ways.

Do you enjoy rocking the body-con trend?

*featured post.

Every A/W, I tend to go into a monochrome mood where I don't really rock a lot of colour and this year is no different, especially with monochrome being so on point right now. A lot of these picks, to me scream androgyny and to be honest during the colder months I don't normally opt for skirts/dresses or tighter fitting items, the more layers/material the better!

Starting with this ASOS Basic Baseball Tee, i've wanted a tee like this for ages as it's one of those tee's that can be worn with pretty much anything and I love items like this. Next is another basic piece, the Topshop Stripe Tee which i've actually had my eye on for some time, I just love the boxy, oversized fit to it and would work really well with my black jeans that I wear practically all winter! Now, no winter is complete with a bunch of new coats and this ASOS Grey Coatigan (coat/cardigan) is right up my street! It's safe to say grey is my safe colour, one I always opt for and this coat is just perfect.. I just hope it comes back into stock in my size soon! I've just realised this wishlist has a lot of t-shirts, but another tee i've had my eye on for a while is this Topshop Leather Look T-shirt, which has contrast fabric sleeves... I love a good contrast sleeve and I think this will actually keep some warmth in! Finally, no winter is complete without a staple pair of boots and these Cut Out Boots from BANK are literally making me dribble ha. I came across these today and almost cried when I saw that they have almost sold out. I love the cutout and big buckle detailing along with a little heel! I'm gonna pop into my local bank in the hope that they have my size!

What are you lusting for this Autumn/Winter?

I decided to make another wish list as my next student loan is coming in next week and like every student out there I like to treat myself a little bit with my loan. I've been browsing so much on Topshop recently as it is my number one place to shop and I haven't really bought much from Topshop recently even when I was in London I had to keep clear of Topshop otherwise I wouldn't have had a penny to my name, so when my loan comes in I am definitely going to treat myself a little bit and I thought i'd share some of the things I'm hoping to pick up.

Starting off with the polka dot dress, I first saw a friend of mine from uni wearing this and I loved how it fitted her and I just really like how different it is from all the bodycon and skater dresses that I've been seeing everywhere at the moment but this dress is one of those dresses that I know i'm going to have to try on. Next onto the cut out shoulder top, I have been loving this cut out shoulder detailing so much recently and I really like the idea of it on a loose fitting top that I can just throw on over a pair of jeans or leggings. Now the bright blue cropped jumper, I wasn't really a fan of this until I saw it in store the other day and I literally fell in love with it but I couldn't allow myself to buy it when I saw it. The green top with the white back I have had my eye on for a while and at first I didn't know if I liked it or not but I keep going back to it and I think i've decided that I do actually like it. I really like the loose fit of this top and the white back adds a little detail to what would be a plain green top. Again another cropped blue jumper, but this one is more slouchy and I think would look super cute with a skater skirt and converse, super casual or what! Finally the shoesssss, I have been wanting to treat myself to a new pair of Topshop heels for so long and as I didn't in London I thought it would only be right to when my loan came in and these I have fallen in love with, just everything about them. They are beautiful!!

So thats my Topshop picks that I am currently lusting for! 

Hope you are all well and you're having a good week so far.

Whilst I was in London I didn't get chance to have a mooch in Monki which I was gutted about, but also with London clearing out my bank account i'm kind of glad I didn't go for a mooch at the same time! With loan day only a few weeks away i'm already lusting after so many things, especially from Monki as they have the cutest blouses and dresses which are really affordable but still really good quality. I thought i'd put a little wishlist together for you all and it may inspire you on some spring essentials for your wardrobe.

As you can see there is a lot of mint/blue colours in this wish list and with this horrible snowy weather we've been having I think we are all lusting for some warmth in the UK so we can finally break out some more bright summery colours to our daily looks!

1. I first saw this jumper on a recent outfit post by Tilly-Jane and I instantly fell in love with it. The colour is such a subtle lime green that it isn't too overpowering and can easily add a nice amount of colour to any outfit and knits are still acceptable in the Spring seeing as it doesn't really warm up an awful lot here in the UK.

2. Whilst browsing the blouse section I came across this polka dot green blouse which I thought was beautiful! I don't really own many colourful blouses and I feel I really need to get some ready for the Spring where it's more acceptable for me to wear brighter colours without getting some really weird looks.

3. Not such a spring item but I am loving the monochrome trend at the moment, seeing as I do wear a lot of black and grey tones I really like adding a little bit of white to an outfit. I also love the print on this dress, can't beat a print midi dress which you can easily style up with a chunky necklace.

4. I think i'm one of the only people who loves to wear double denim, especially different coloured denim and this shirt is so me! I love the two tone on this denim shirt and I can already think of so many casual looks I could create from this shirt.

5. Another blouse! I've seen this creep up on a few blogs recently and the print just fascinated me! I love the illustrative eye print as it adds some detail to the blouse and the light blue/mint colour of this blouse would be perfect for Spring!

6. Browsing through the accessories section and I came across this beanie. Now for any of you who follow me on Instagram you will know I've been loving my UO beanie recently and I just want loads, I know I probably should have got into beanies when Winter first started but you never know with British weather it can turn cold with a simple click of your fingers!

So that's my Monki wishlist! Hope you are all well and are having a good start to the week!

Shoes, us girls can never have too many shoes can we!

I'm forever trolling through online websites, literally in awe at all the beautiful shoes that I know I can't have as my bank balance wouldn't be too happy but it's always nice to window shop or screen shop in my case.

I'm currently lusting over so many shoes at the moment, I love finding that pair of shoes that I know I can wear in so many ways with so many different outfits and paying that little bit more on better quality shoes really does ensure the durability and how long the shoes last.

Anyway onto the shoes, I'm currently really loving so many shoes from Topshop starting with these black suede platform heels, how beautiful are they?! I love Topshop heels, they are so sophisticated and last such a long time, totally worth the price tags sometimes! The next pair from Topshop are the black woven front loafers, I have seen these shoes featured on a fair amount of blogs and I love love love a good pair of loafers and these look like they would be so comfy and easy to throw on with any outfit! The last pair from Topshop are the white cutout peep toe flats, they did a very similar pair last spring/summer and I was gutted when I wasn't able to pick up any as my size sold out :( So I'm determined to get my hands on these, they will be so cute for the warmer summer days!

The next pair of shoes from Shoeaholics are the black floral platform wedges by KG Kurt Geiger and yes they are only £29!!! I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw these, they are beautiful and I want them so much!! The final pair of shoes are the mint brogues from ASOS, as I don't really own any bright coloured shoes I thought this was an odd choice for me but I honestly really like these especially the colour. I think they would be perfect to add a pop of colour to an outfit without throwing on a scarf or something.

So many shoes, so little time (and money).

What shoes are you currently lusting after?

Hello everyone, I thought I would make a small post today before I start back at uni as I am not sure how often I will be able to post depending on how busy I am, as term time is very hectic for me. So today I am doing my first wishlist ever! I have seen many bloggers post wishlists and me being me there is never anything I really want, normally if I like it and can afford it there and then I will probably buy it, but there is a few things I have my eye on at the moment as I am waiting for my loan to come in before buying anything just incase something goes wrong with my loan.

Anyway onto the wishlist, I will start with the clothes first. Funnily enough they are all from Topshop which I have to say is fast becoming my favourite place to shop. As a lot of you will know and will have seen these swishy style skater skirts are very 'in' at the moment and I have just fallen in love with both the denim and the mint cord skirt, mint isn't a colour I normally wear but its something that I can take through into the summer months as well. Next the dress, wow! I saw this dress on a friend of mine over new year and I have just wanted it ever since. I'm not normally one for wearing much bodycon clothing  unless I can find the right fit so I am definitely going to have to find this in store to try it on.

Now onto the beauty products, the first on my wishlist is the Mac Studio Sculpt Foundation I have seen so many bloggers rave about this product and as I don't tend to stick to the same foundations I really want to give this a go, even for the £20+ price tag a lot of bloggers say it is worth it! Next is the Real Techniques Brush Set, again I have seen these brushes feature on so many blogs saying how good these brushes are so I am convinced they are going to change my life.. okay they probably won't but they will have some sort of inpact on how my makeup is applied and if they are as good as all of you are saying for the price they quite reasonable. Now onto the Nars Bronzer, oh Narsss I love a bit of Nars but unfortunatly nowhere stocks it where I live (sigh) and I can't order it online incase I get the wrong shade but I am determined to find it somewhere! The last thing is this Topshop Nail Varnish in shade 'Mercury Rising' which is a glitter nail varnish by the looks, but I love Topshop Nails it is such a good range as the size of the bottle is just right and the range of colours they have is so worth the £5 price tag per bottle!

So that is my January wishlist and I will report back if and when I purchase something off of it. Hope you all have a wonderful upcoming week and I will see you in my next post.
