Blogtober day two: Birthday haul

On Friday I turned 21: the legal age to drink in America. As I could already drink; being from the UK (legal age of 18), I decided to do something a little different. I went for a meal with my univeristy friends, spent a day in my favourite place: London, had a family tea afternoon, went for drinks with my university friends then had afternoon tea. All of these each happened on different days. So I thought I'd share a few pictures of what I got and how my 5-day birthday went! 

Product hauls to follow! x

Back to School Outfit Ideas

A lot of schools in the UK have to wear uniform to school, but there are sixth forms, colleges and universities where students do not! Like myself, I attend university and do not have to wear a uniform, so this blog post is just a few ideas on outfits ideas that can work in rain or sunshine!

I chose three high street fashion stores to base outfits on, including Topshop, H&M and Forever21.


H&M:

Top: £7.99

Leggings: £5.99

Jumper: £12.99

Necklace: £2.99

Bag: £14.99

Shoes: £7.99

Forever21 (Links included):

Dress: £18
Shoes: £13.99
Bag: £23
Necklace: £4.50

Topshop (Links included):

Shorts: £15
Bangles: £7.50 each
Shoes: £28

July Wishlist

Along with every other blogger this month my usual monthly wish list includes one or two items I've spotted from the AW14 collection that is not yet available, so I apologise in advance and we can envy those who already own the items, lucky lucky people!

On a brighter note hey, hello, hi! It seems like forever since my last blog post, I plan them and time just flies by without my actually typing away and staring at a screen for hours! Little life update: I passed my second year of University, one step closer to becoming a primary school teacher!!! Cue celebrations.

Yeah, well anyway, back to July wish list, this one was a little hard. I'm in need of a few new pretty and petite dresses for my Summer, going into Autumn collection, but they are so impossible to find. It seems like every store has just forgotten up update their stock in the last month or so, then comes the first world issues of not having my size when I do find something worth splashing out for!

Firsty up is lovely little Topshop. My favourite place.

Leaf Print Overlay Crinkle Sundress, £38

Tapestry Print Sundress, £36

Flower Jacquard A-Line Skirt, £35

Next up, Miss Selfridge:

Then a little teaser of the Nars AW14 collection, I am so desperate for this little compact! 

Last but definitely not least is my Sephora basket, and all you Americans will have no idea how jealous I am that you live close to these stores! This basket will be full for a long time until I can justify spending an awful lot on shipping :( Seriously cannot wait to get my hands on a TARTE Lights, Camera, Splashes though! 

And i'm going to have to quickly dash off and get ready for dancing, so I shall leave you with a little delight that I recently purchased the Bumble and Bumble Surf Set from Boots for £18, and My next blog post will probably be a review of that set! 

Until next time, Lovelies x

Topshop Haul

Last week I travelled back up to Leeds, this time to hand my key back to the landlord from our student house (no fun :( ). But I also met up with one of my housemates and we got a little spendy with the remaining of our student loans!

we ventured into Topshop and noticed the sale, and even though there were not many great items in the sale, we still managed to spend quite a bit, no regrets here! The final purchased items include a mint green jumper with a sequin detail around the collar, and a white flower cut tee.

Escaping Topshop, we then turned to Harvey Nichols to find an Urban Decay Flushed palette in Streak, but there was nobody around the Urban Decay desk to help, so we shuffled our way around moving from Chanel, Nars, Laura Mercier and even Mac, but finally found the perfect summer blush in Estee Lauder. This was quite pricey at £25, but to consider that I normally go for Benefit and those blushers are at least £23, it was a perfectly acceptable purchase! 

 Until next times lovelies x
