Bargains All Round

Hey ladies so sorry I have been MIA for the past few days, I have had a rather crazy weekend. But fear not I'm back with a post, and its a little random at that. Today I thought Id share with you a couple of things I'm loving from two ends of the spectrum.... Fashion and Beauty


First up we have Superdrugs Vitamin E creams, One for the day and one for the night. At £2.99 I cant stress enough what a worthwhile bargain these creams are. They keep my skin looking radiant, feeling soft and constantly hydrated. Neither of them are greasy, The night cream isn't too heavy and it leaves your skin feeling baby bum soft. The day cream soaks into the skin nicely leaving you the perfects canvas to apply your make up, It also has the added bonus of SPF 15.

I also have very sensitive skin, so I'm wary as to what touches it. I haven't had a single issue with these. I definitely think you should try these for a couple weeks next time your moisturiser runs out.

Next up..... The Aviator

I have wanted one on these for ever. With the one I had my eye on costing a whopping £150 I controlled myself knowing that one day I would find one that looked just like it.


And Primark does it again!! as soon as I saw this I had to double take, just to make sure I was actually in the right shop.


They payed attention to every single detail, from the buckles to the zips. The best thing is that it looks exactly the same as the £150 one I was eyeing up, but of course its not leather.

I think you all will agree it was a steal at £25 !!! although I do remember the days when a jacket in Primark cost no more than £15, where are they going with their prices nowadays *ROLLS EYES*

Style Without The Sound

Yesterday I took advantage of the ASOS 20% discount and free next day delivery, not full advantage mind....... as I haven't even started Christmas shopping yet : /

I placed my order at around 4pm yesterday, and my door was being knocked at 7am this morning.......

I whittled down 10 pieces of jewellery to 2, please don't ask me how, this is some what of a miracle to me too. I picked up these babies because they were so simple put different. I'm not really a fan of bling, but I was drawn to these like a moth to a flame.

You don't even wear them like you would a standard chain, they simply just hang round your neck. I hope I don't lose them ........


I also picked up this tusk bracelet, which looks A-MAZ-ING on. Is it possible to love a piece of jewellery?

The best thing is the price
Head phone necklace £11.00 HERE
Tusk bracelet £6 HERE
I know Asos offer a free delivery as standard, so I think I will be popping over there soon to pick up the treasure I had to leave behind.


Did any of you take advantage.......

Winter addiction

Im in trouble this winter,and this is why



No no,its not a blanket,its my new scarf,hand knitted by my friends mummy.


Its so nice,all I did was wrap it round my neck on the day she told me it was finished,and everyone in the room first gasped "omg where did you get it from" followed by "oh I want one"


Everyday im praying for a small blizzard to hit,so I can whip this baby out.


Its so warm,thick and cosy.No high street store scarf has got sh*t on this.

I also love the fact that nobody else will own anything remotely the same.

You cant even get the wool she used to knit this aymore.


I saw another scarf she had just finished knitting the other day,and if it was physically possible for someones jaw to hit the floor,mine would have.

Next time I go round I shall take pictures. Im going to be placing my next order fairly soon.This is the start of a very beautiful addiction.

So what do you think,do you like my scarf? and do you like owning things that others just cant pop down to the high street to buy?

Making A Comeback

Ladies some of you might already know,some of you may not,but the Espadrille is making a comeback.In my eyes,their one of those things that are so wrong there right.

Now I must admit (lol) the pair up top arnt that bad,trust me I have seen worse.I could see myself rocking these with some skinnies or a pair of overly baggy ripped jeans.

I know some of you are probably thinking,Michelle,what is wrong with you.But I always keep an open mind when it comes to fashion and footwear.I always used to diss things in the past,then a few months later id be wearing it.Uggs were a big example of that.

So here comes the question ladies......

What do you think of Espadrilles,and do you reckon by the time summer is over you may have a small collection of them stashed in the back of the wardrobe?

Its our little secret,I wont tell anyone

Harem Pants

The Harem,you either love them or hate them.I am an avid lover.I have 3 pairs and I want more.I need to find me a nice pair of 3/4 length ones.

Last year around these times when the sun was always out,I rocked mine on a regular basis with my gladiators and a casual tight fitting vest.I also dressed up my black pair of haremes by wearing black patent heels and a lace body underneath,not to blow my own trumpet but I must say I looked quite amazing hehe.

Heres a quick example of how you can dress them up.....

And how you can dress them down.

Some say to only wear them with tight fitting tops,but im a rebel and I break rules.I think short baggy (not cropped) vests look just as good with harems as do tight ones.

(GI)

Like I said I personally love them,they near enough go with anything and they are so so so comfortable.

So what do you think ladies LOVE them or HATE them?

Casual Outfit Of The Other Day

My first ever outfit of the day,well the other day. Excuse the crap in the back lol,yes my room was in tip mode.Oh and by the way,Im not a one of those that wear my sunglasses inside lol,the sun was actually shining and I was heading out.Today just happened to be a black and white day,although im usually in print or colour.It was one of those times I just had to throw on a T-Shirt and leggings.(sounds like something a small child would wear hehe)

Sheer Baggy T-H&M
Boots-Simmi
Leggings-Primarni

I was wearing these accessories.My trusty aviators,heart locket and my ring that is probably the one thing I never leave my house without.My mum bought it when she was 16,and gave it to me when I was 16,vintage baby lol.

So thats it really,im stuck on what else to say,oh apart from how nice was the weather today,It was actually warm,fingers crossed it stays this way.

Craving Jewellery

Im in love with all things delicate,and Im not talking about anything thats creepy and can crawl.Im talking about delicate pieces of jewellery.Bt the only brand I have come across that seems to do cute necklaces,that sit around the collar bone area,and bracelets that I just love are Dogeared.Im still yet to get my hands on a piece,but I always manage to spend my funds on something else.Heres a couple of things that are on my wish list

Dogeared Gold Dipped Wonderful World Necklacekarma necklace, gold dipped
The price is a bit out there considering what you get,but I cant seem to find a cheaper alternative anywhere.Since I lost my old necklace,my neck just feels naked.I need something small and delicate to hang round my neck.Im also loving pieces with small coloured stones/crystals

If anyone knows of any sites where I can get something cute to accompany my neck,please please let me know.The hunt is venturing beyond a joke : (

Someone please make this search end...
