Recent Buys!

As it was my birthday recently, I found a great excuse to do some shopping in the previous week. I did return quite a few things that just weren't right, but these were my 5 favourites that I kept and love!

Skater Dress from New Look (Sale)
Maxi Skirt from Ark

If you want to see what the skater dress looks like on me, you can check out the pictures from my 21st birthday here! I like it, though try as I might my bra was extremely visible so if you're conscious of that you may need to find an invisible bra!

I adore my Ark maxi skirt, it's half opaque half sheer and just a gorgeous cranberry colour. These pictures are terrible, I will try and do an OOTD post featuring it soon!

Dolly shoes, both from Primark
Rose gold necklace from H&M

I know it's winter but I still need dolly shoes for my nights out - I am a terrible excuse for a girl and just cannot handle heels! I just want some black studded pumps now and I'm set.

Now this necklace was my most exciting purchase by far. I've seen Leanne from Thunder & Threads show it off in so many posts and I couldn't believe my luck when I found one left in H&M - I've been wearing it all the time!

I also got some make-up type stuff this week, a couple of cult favourites that I've been wanting for ages!

Umberto Giannini Tousled Salt Spray
Rimmel Stay Matte Powder in 003 Peach Glow
Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection Concealer in Light 2
(Can't believe the writing is rubbing off already!)

So these were my birthday splurges and now I need to save, wah.

Autumn Faves

Autumn is well and truly upon us - though to be honest here in Preston it feels more like winter!

Weekly Wants #6

1. Leather-look skater skirt - River Island, £20
2. Metallic luxe scarf - River Island, £16
3. Totoro necklace - Temporary Secretary, £8
4. Gold spike ring - Topshop, £8.50
5. Studded loafers - Boohoo, £20
6. Brown tassle hobo bag - New Look, £24.99

Weekly Total - £97.49

Even though I've been shopping this week, there's still a bunch of stuff that I want - go figure!

The Totoro necklace is just so cute I can't handle it, it's one of my favourite films and I just think it's kitsch enough to go with anything. I was recently introduced to Temporary Secretary jewellery and I'm looking forward to my first purchase being this!

I know studded loafers have been around forever and everyone already has a pair, but these ones from Boohoo are cheaper than the Topshop ones and just seem really nice quality.

Anyone who knows me, knows about my ongoing struggle with bag addiction. I saw the brown hobo bag in New Look and my Mum had to pry my hands off it. I know I don't need any more bags, but I'm sure this will join my collection very soon.

I hope you like my weekly wants, let me know what some of yours are!

Back to Uni Shopping

I went on a very nice little shopping spree with my Mum and Grandma today, and was bought some lovely treats and some winter essentials for going back to Uni on Sunday!

Plain racer back vests - New Look, £3.99
Black skater skirt - Topshop, £16.99
Studded boots - River Island, £40
Red diphem dress - Matalan, £18
Fur hood parka - Matalan, £32

I've featured the boots and the parka in my Weekly Wants posts and I absolutely love them - quite looking forward to cold weather so I can wear them out!

I'm very happy with the stuff I got and I'm now pretty well prepared for my third and final year at Uni. 

If you have any comments or questions leave them below, I'd love to see what you're buying for Uni, College or School, or chat to me on twitter.

Weekly Wants #5

1. Black studded jumper - Love, £38.00
2. Fur hooded parka - Matalan, £32.00
3. Cosmic print top - New Look, £14.99
4. Jimmy Choo perfume - Cheap Smells, £50.00 for 100ml
5. Black studded boots - River Island, £40.00
6. Pinch Punch by Louise Gray - Topshop, £6.50

Weekly Total - 181.49

It's another very expensive wishlist but there's just so many new gorgeous items around that I couldn't resist. While part of me is disappointed that there will be no more warm summer days, I'm really looking forward to getting back into Autumn clothes!

I'm going on a back to Uni shopping trip next week so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I can find the parka and boots while I'm there because they are necessities for the many rain showers I'll find myself caught in running around Preston.

Let me know if you like anything in my Weekly Wants and share your own! If you have any comments or questions please leave them below or you can chat to me on twitter.
