Took advantage of the sale at Boohoo

Hello Readers!

So, It was christmas time and my wonderful Aunt bought me a £30 American Express gift card, She's quite possibly the best Aunt you could ever ask for! :-)

At this piont, i had no idea to what i was going to spend it on... I'm a bugger for saving! I had to spend it straight away and i couldn't think of anything super important to spend it on until i came across the Sale on the Boohoo website! I've never seen so many pretty clothes for such a good price! and being a fashion student, clothes are pretty important.... right? Right :-)



Here at some of my purchases! Thought it was the perfect opportunity to use my pretty turquoise 'Selfie Stick!' (I had to join the club)

Above, are my first two purchases! 

Kerry Tassle Cardigan £6.00 Boohoo




Love a bit of colour and it went perfect with the new bag i got for christmas! 



Abby Oversized Pleated Back Sleevless Shirt £6.00 NOW £5.00!! Bargain! ;-)

If i was rich, i was would buy so many of these shirts! I have quite a few already but i love them! They're so comfortable and they look good with quite a lot, both summer and winter styles! 

I especially like styling mine up with my black boots and black bowler hat! :-)


So these are just some of my recent purchases! 
BUT there's more to come, so keep checking!!

Have a lovely day!

Treat myself... again.

I always seem to be treating myself. I just do not know when to stop. Someone needs to take my card away from me.

Before i decided i was going to come home with an Apple Mac, i'd previously made a purchase on beauty bay! Oops. It was totally worth it though. I've previously been watching Zoella's youtube blog and got very inspired after watching one of her make up tutorials! So i decided i needed to make some purchases...

Here's what i got...



Luxe Cream Lipstick Venus Phase - £7.50
Brow Box Brown Sugar - £19.00
Eye Shadow Trio Goddess £13.00
Premier SPF20 Mineral Foundation 04 Apricot - FREEBIE (for spending so much)

The eyeshadow is the BEST. I bought it mainly for the gold, it brings out the blue in my eyes! Secondly, the Lipstick.... i LOVE the colour!!




After treating myself to some make-up and then a iMac unexpectedly... I bought myself some hair curler's as i've never had any before. (I always used my mums!) I only bought some cheap ones as i thought i should probably start being more careful with my money.... :-) yeah.
Really Impressed and adore my cute little curls!!! If i do say so myself :-)

New toy!

On Friday, I went to town to get a few bits and bobs, except I came home with an IMac 😍 check it out. Isn't she pretty! 


I even strapped her in... 


Whoop!😊

New purchases!


Do you ever buy something and then feel guilty? Especially when you get home and your parents are looking at you and asking what you've bought? so ... like you've gone and convinced yourself that you NEED these items, your now trying to convince your parents! They're essentials... Right ladies? ;-) 

If your anything like me, you spend your wages before you've even recieved them... All the time! I only got paid last week!!! And I'm now having to be careful, which is always the case! But I just keep reminding myself we get our student loans next week!!! Yay!! :-D

But no, seriously. I need to stop! For now... 

Anyway! I thought i would share some of my recent purchases with you, I've been meaning to do this for a while but I've just been super duper busy! I'm sorry. 

1) High waisted Joni jeans from Topshop! (The best jeans I've ever owned! Very comfortable and stretchy!) Dad didn't see these come in the post, so I didn't have to explain! Not that I should have too anyway, because it's my money! But, i think it's just my way of justifying it to myself maybe...

2) Black Leather 'Outlaw' Chelsea style boots from Schuh! £65 (will add a link here soon!) My reason for these was, I needed some good leather boots for the winter days, and that they're a very good price! 



3) Black and White Nike Roshe's! £70 from Schuh! (Can you tell I work there?-will add a link here soon!) These are my ultimate favourite trainers when it comes to comfort Wow! <3 <3 <3 Dad says these are the most sensible pairs of shoes/trainers I've ever bought! Paha! No seriously, They are pretty fit though!


4) Tan coloured 'Reggata' Schuh shoes, from Schuh! (Believe it or not!) £30! (Will add a link here soon!) These are my casual shoes, they go with almost anything. This is the second pair I've had because I adore them! 


5) Victorias's Secret pamper collection! It was £13 for 1 or 5 for £30... So yes of course I went for 5, even though I did only go in for one but I thought I was an opportunity that couldn't be missed, I saved £35! And this is the day I told my friend not to let me buy anything!  Fail! 
(The bodybutter makes your skin feel lush!)



6) Treat myself to some new lipstick didn't i, I hardly ever buy lipstick... So thought I would treat myself. (Exact words to my dad) Remmel London No.720 Notting Hill Nude Lipstick. (2 for £10 on all products at boots!) It looks really good if I do say so myself... ;-)

7) Remmel London BB Cream 9-IN-1(on the 2 for £10 offer at boots!) I bought this to wear on a every day basis! It gives a healthy glow and doesn't give that 'too much make-up' look! (I bought a new foundation brush too!) 


8) So this was last months big purchase but I lost my virginty to MAC. I bought the MAC Studio Sculpt foundation, this is now for special days though, like when I go on a night out or to a special event! (normally I couldn't face spending £25 on something like this, but I was curious and my friend uses it all the time and her skin is flawless!) 



9) My black cardigan from Urban outfitters! On sale for £25 reduced from £45. It was love at first sight... 


10) Red or Dead Heels from Schuh on sale for £19.99


11) and to go with the red or dead shoes, I bought this pretty pink open back dress from boohoo! 


So as you can see, I've been spending a few penny's here and there! And it probably won't stop here! Hehe! ;-)

Becoming a shoe addict!

I work for Schuh, and i LOVE my job! (Even if it doesn't do my credit cards any favours!) I guess you can say i'm a typical female! I love shoes! ...Most of the time, i've spent my wage before i've even received it! Don't tell my dad... If mum was here, she would totally understand!! ;-)

Recently i've had my bedroom re-decorated! When it came to moving back in and unpacking my shoes, id almost forgotten that i had some of them which made me really sad, as they'd all been living in a box at the bottom of my wardrobe but i had nowhere else to fit them, and this isn't a way to treat shoes! So this lead me to buying a 10 tier shoe rack for my bedroom, so now every morning, i can decide what shoes i can wear with what outfit knowing what i've got because they're all neatly lined up in front of me!

So last month, i bought a pair of shoes, ok maybe two pairs... But it's so hard working at schuh and being surrounded my all these amazing, pretty shoes!!!! My wishlist is never ending! However, my excuse was that i was going to Greece and needed new shoes, obviously! It's not like i have another 1000 pairs at home is it................. Ha!

Here's a little sneak peak...



These are my most recent pair! womens schuh 'ice cream' sandals - not something id usually go for, but the more i looked at them, i thought they'd look cute with certain outfits! My favourites being my denim dresses! And they are probably one of the most comfortable pairs of shoes i own believe it or not! 



These, womens schuh 'day trip' sandals, i bought for my holiday to Greece! I thought they'd look cute with almost everything! 


Yet again, another pair of my faves!! womens schuh 'sunshine' sandals. They come in three different colours at the moment, Black, Pink and Natural. I chose the Natural ones as i thought they would go with a lot more, although it was a hard choice between the pink ones also as they are a very summery colour! I bought these to go to Greece in. I'm not a girl who can wear heels all day everyday, i really don't know how some girls do it... However, i have incredibly flat feet so heels aren't very comfortable for me, so these were the perfect alternative as you can wear them for casual and dressy occasions with them being so pretty!!







So, please excuse my stupidly wonky feet, but these i also love! womens schuh 'getaway' sandals. I remember a few years ago, the gladiator look being a big thing and it seems to be sort of making a come back! And this when i spotted these! They are so comfortable and they look cute with dresses or leggings!






Ok, I loved the cut-out trend! womens schuh 'expose' boots. These are very cushions so they are quite comfortable also! Don't wear them so much with it the weather being so Lush, but i can't imagine i'll ever get bored of these! They look good with Jeans and a nice blazer! ;-)

 



I was on a hunt for some boots, that i could wear in the horrible cold weather. After finding some gorgeous Knee length boots, it turned out they looked a bit silly around my legs, as all boots do, my legs are too skinny! Makes me sad sometimes! Anyway, i came across these womens juju jellies 'chelsea' boots. I thought these were a perfect alternative as they we're almost just like little wellies, but with the Chelsea look, which was a big trend, probably still is! Not everyone's cup of tea, but i love them!




JELLIES! Wow, i was so surprised when these came around again, My mum used to make me wear these all the time when i was a little girl! womens juju 'jellies babe' sandals, I thought they'd look cute with my dungaree dresses and most of all, they were and are still a big trend and high on demand, i had to buy some! And i plan on buying more! 


So this is it for now! I have Soooooooooooooo many more!! And obviously, i'll keep you updated on my future purchases from this moment on!! Wait till you see my wishlist, its NEVERENDING!
