New Zealand wishlist



So here is my travel 'lust' list ... Going to be travelling to New Zealand towards the middle of the year and visiting Hong Kong and Australia along the way, no idea for how long yet, but whatever its going to be amazing anyway.

1. Sunglasses - Ebay
2. Mac Russian Red Lipstick ... Mac
3. Samsung Tab - all electrical wholesalers
4. Shoes - Doc. Martens
5. Jumper - She Inside
6. Shorts - Romwe
7. Boots - Doc Martens
7. Dress - Nasty Gal
8. Bikini - Asos
9. Bag - Nasty Gal

Just a quick explanation of why i want to take these things travelling with me.
The Sunglasses for obvious reasons plus a girl can never have too many pairs of sunglasses! complete obsession of mine. 
The lipstick as lipstick is a complete staple accessory I try to wear it as much as I can and  I totally love red lipsticks.
Samsung tab to keep in touch with friends and family / continue blogging  and to use skype on it.
Doc Marten shoes and boots! I love DM's and totally sad that I don't own a pair yet! The heeled ones would be great for more occasions and casual nights out and the boots would be great for walking around on a daily basis.
She Inside Jumper this looks so cosy just to lounge around hostels in and maybe for night time if it gets cooler when out and about etc. I love it and want it !
Shorts, These can be worn with a slouchy tee in the day or dressed up at night, again wardrobe staple and again with or without tights depending on how hot/cold the temp is.
I Love this Nasty Gal dress, would be great for nights out or meals out and then made casual in the day with a leather jacket if its cool enough to wear one.
Bikini ! Hahaha anyone that knows me knows I'm the queen of bikini's and really really do not need another one! If I go on holiday usually I ALWAYS take a different one for everyday that I'm there! But this ones red and I like how the tops a little bit retro! I would love this to add to my collection!
Last but not least the backpack! I love this it's kind of a guy style backpack but then made girly with the iridescence and the sequins! I really do like this and would get quite a lot of use out of it away I reckon.

Everyday Average

 Today's look : Just a quick one today, not many accompanying pictures, had no natural light so had to make the best use of the artificial lighting.
I Decided to attach my collar 'clips' what ever you would like to call them to my turtle neck top, I quite like the outcome tbh, both of these come from ebay the collar clips and the turtle neck, neither of them above £4 each I don't think.

My Jeans I got from Vero Moda down Oxford Street, although not a big fan of jeans, I find these really well fitting, soft and comfortable, they are also navy which kind of breaks up the usual black a bit.

My Shoes I got from American Apparel in November, I think they were £40. I had a different pair of shoes on at the time I bought them but my feet were absolutely killing so I bought these in London and changed into them there and then in store haha! Although these gave me blisters in new places and aren't always the most comfortable of shoes, I do like the way they look.

The coat I got from Topshop last year, and although I do love this coat I massively regret buying this one instead of the Burgundy one, as i'm so pale i feel this one doesn't really suit my  complexion. If anyone has the Burgundy one and wants to swap, be my guest.

Last but not least my watch is from Urban Outfitters, I can spend forever in the Oxford Street one and find it a treat when I can snap up a bargain. Unfortunately I can't remember how much the watch cost me but I do remember it was pretty cheap and in the sale.



Topshop lipstick in : Rio Rio

Topshop Gift Card holder : £1.50
Currently using this as an Osyter card holder! So handy and I love the colour

Casual Sunday




So here's my casual Sunday post. This is a typical 'slumming it ' outfit, Disco pants I don't tend to wear out often (too scared there going to rip haha) I got these Disco pants from New Look, have worn them out 3 times and it seems like the seam underneath is starting to go, so yeah keeping it safe and having them as casual haha!

Bought the Vans Tee off Ebay a good couple of months ago, pretty sure it was around a tenner, maybe less? Not sure, either way I get loads of use out of it, Vans being a brand I have loved for years.

Cardigan I bought two London trips ago in the Topshop sale, was from £40 to £25, bargain and I wear it to work nearly all the time as it's so warm, slouchy and comfortable.

Shoes I have shown on here before around about November time. They are from Primark. Don't go with much other than black but they are again comfy and good for keeping casual.

Black and Denim











OOTD: Denim shirt : Beyond retro (London)
             Necklace : Topshop
             Sunglasses : Ebay
             Skirt : Topshop
             Tights : Primark
             Shoes : Topshop
             Coat : She Inside

This is my outfit of the day, having a chilled Saturday until tonight, going to a gig and having a few drinks with friends. Will no doubt wear exactly the same but switch the heels for flats.
I love the denim shirt that I picked up in beyond retro in London at the beginning of 2012, have got so much wear out of it, and have seen the likes of Topshop etc produce pretty similar looking shirts after, I picked it up for a mere £12, Bargain!


The Skater skirt I have picked up within the last week, I have the same one in grey also, which I have had for a while... they are nice to wear for a change. 
The coat from SheInside which I have posted on here before, i'm a total sucker for Sheinside and I wear this coat at the weekends as I feel it looks a bit too smart for work with what I usually wear.

Hope everyone has a good weekend .x.

Ebay Jan 2013 wishlist


If anyone can help me as to how the pictures don't interfere with the sidebar? would be greatly appreciated\as it's highly irritating and I can't work out how to change it...

Anyway I have just scoured ebay for a few hours to find my current favourite items on there!

I love Ebay as you can usually find some really great items at bargain prices

1. Sunglasses: Not sure why I put these on here to be honest as I bought these the other day and are featured in my Christmas sale haul post I did last week, but I think there an absolute steal at £2 something ! amazing! Can't wait to wear them...

2. Gold Collar and black studded collar! I Haven't been to into the singular collar trend until recently! I love these two though, I could see myself getting more use out of the black collar, but it would be nice to steer away from black for a change hence why I thought I'd choose a gold one to add to my wishlist as well!

3. Black fur coat... I've just bid on this at £9!!!!!! I'll no doubt get out-bid any second but such is life. When I went to Carnaby Street two or three London trips ago in November i found the most amazing black fluffy coat in Monki but they didn't have my size, it never appeared on the website and they never restocked :( cry. But this one looks just as good, currently going for more than half the price.

4. Black fur mittens.... These are so cute! I'd love these while it's still cold or for when I go travelling in June as it will be winter in New Zealand. Perfect.

5. Blue Tartan top... Fair enough this one looks a bit crinkled to me, but if I was to buy it I could see myself getting a lot of wear out of it for everyday use.

6. Maxi skirt... These have really grown on me lately and if I was to buy this I would personally probably team it up with some Doc's to keep the edge to it and keep it casual.

7. Dr Martens ... I've wanted a pair of Doc's for years now mainly some boots, why I haven't got round to buying any yet is beyond me, but I really need to invest in a pair soon. These Dr. Martens shoes are really growing on me recently and I would quite like a pair of these pretty soon too. They'd probably do me good for work, keeping it casual smart in the office.

8. Levi Shorts... I need a new pair as last years don't fit me any more :( Christmas food and office snacking has taken it's toll. These would be perfect for travelling and in the summer or just teamed with tights.
