Hello my lovelies, 

Todays post is going to be my January wishlist.

As it's the time of the sales I am hoping to do some shopping so here is what I hope to be purchasing.

1. A smock dress. These are perfect from Winter through to summer they can be worn with thick tights and big chunky boots or no tights and a cut-out shoe. I really like the print on this one from Boohoo and for £18 you can't go wrong! 

2. I really like long t-shirts that can be worn as a dress or as a top over leggings. This one from Missguided is so lovely! The pattern detail is so simple but adds so much to it. It comes in Black or White but to be really honest I want it in both. It costs £16.99 which again is a great price.

3. The last item thats a dress I promise! This is also from Missguided and again I think it's a really nice edgy piece. Both for Winter through to Summer. Again it comes in black and white and again I can't decide! These are also £16.99

4. Topshop have some really lovely chunky cut out boots and you all know how much I love a chunky boot so these are just perfect for the warmer days! They're £42 but look like they'd last a long time.

5. This little number is from Newlook and I absolutely fell in love with it! It's just a simple faux leather backpack but I think it looks great! Very simple but looks like it would be super handy! It is £17.99.

6. This one is a bit more on the pricey side. It's a powder from Chanel called Poudre Universelle Compacte Natural Finish Pressed Powder. The reason I want this is because I worked out how much I've been spending on powders and I normally have to by at least 2/3 a year not including if it breaks so I thought it would be better to get one that lasts, as I know a fair few people who have this and it has lasted them years, then buy a new one every 5-6 months when I hit pan. The price ranges from £29.50-£33.

  

7. This last item is another high end product I've been eyeing up for ages it's the YSL Rouge Volupte Lipstick in Rose Opera. The colour is a really nice deep rose pink and I really like the texture of these lipsticks as well as the packaging. The prices range from £11.75-£24.50 at  Debenhams. The picture below is not of the shade I mentioned above.

I hope you're all enjoying the January sales as much as I am. 

I also hope you're all having a great week! Thank goodness it's the weekend! 

Much love <3

My Autumn Wishlist

Hello my lovelies,
As you probably know I did a makeup wishlist and I thought to myself "hmm... Sacha you should probably think about clothes because they're important" so I decided to do a wishlist of everything I think is essential for winter and what I will be looking to purchase.

Fisrt of all is a parka! I have had mine for 3-4 years so it's really time for a new one I think, Zara do some really good quality parkas and I have my eye on these two in there

£89.99

£89.99

I also think that a tartan print scarf is perfect for the cold weather and they look great with most things because of the mixture of colours in them.

£19.99 - Zara

£20.00 - Urban Outfitters

Something I think is a huge staple not only for autumn but for all year round is ankle boots especially cut out boots I feel like they add some femininity to a solid piece.

£45 - Topshop

£44.99 - New Look

 Of course an essential would be a white tee and I really like this one from Topshop because of the shape of it and the mix of materials I think it is absolutely fab!

£30.00 - Topshop

I really like Topshop's Joni jeans at the minute they're super highwaisted and fit so nicely, I think that they will look really nice in a black with a light denim jacket.

£36 - Topshop

Last but not least I really think that frilly socks will look so good with cut out boots topshop do some really cute ones in hundreds of different colours or some patterned socks topshop again do alot of cute ones like this to!

£3.50/ 3 for £8

Again £3.50/ 3 for £8

I think these will look all look really good together or on their own and I think I will be wearing them all alot if I eventually buy them! I am going shopping on saturday with a friend (this is risky business) so look out for a little haul type post soon! I hope you're all having an amazing week!

Much love <3

                                           

First Dates

Hello my lovelies,

recently a couple of my friends have been having a couple of dates with their big time crushes and I think it is really sweet so much so I figured you guys might need a couple of tips or a little help with your outfit for such an occasion. Just a little disclaimer before we get going any items featured in this are pieces that I love and would wear for a date I am not doing product placement or anything :) 

Anyway...

Tip No1: Make sure you eat something before hand because you don't know when you could be eating again if it's a cinema date or if you're just hanging out. BUT if you're going out for a meal obviously don't eat this follows on to 

Tip No2: If you go for something to eat order what you like don't order a salad that you hate because you think it will impress him in my experience guys don't care what you eat but like girls who do eat what they want.

Tip No3: Don't wear lots of make-up if it's a first date just keep your make-up natural. Foundation, a little bit of mascara and some lippy goes a long way. Besides I highly doubt any of you need that much either.

Tip No4: Outfits. This is quite important but not for the reasons you think. You don't have to impress a guy on your first date by your outfit but you don't want him to think you haven't made any effort. I have come up with a couple of ideas by using polyvore to help you with your outifits 

Outfit Number 1:

Jacket-Topshop
Bow- Claires
Scarf- Zara
Bag- Cambridge Satchel Company
Boots- Topshop
Dress- Brandy Melville
Having your hair in a half up half down style secured with the bow would look really cute with this outfit and some slouchy socks with the boots would look super to.

Outfit Number 2:

Cardigan- Vila Brianna
Top- Topshop
Skirt- Brandy Melville
Socks- Topshop
Bag- Zara
Shoes- Converse

Last but not least

Outift Number 3:

Hoodie- Topshop
Top- Topshop
Jeans- Topshop
Boots- Topshop
Socks- Topshop
Lipstick- Topshop
Bag- Prada
I know this is a lot of Topshop but it wasn't intentional at all!

Finally Tip No5: Be yourself. Cheesy as it sounds it's actually very sensible, I mean would you want a guy to go on a second date with you when you weren't acting how you normally do? There's no point to it. Be yourself because you're the best version of you that you could be.

I hope this helps you a little bit :) but remember you can't start dating until your 16! (boys are smelly!)

Hope you're all having a good week and have enjoyed summer!

Good luck to everyone who's starting school/college/uni. I am bricking it!

Much love <3

Topshop, Alice and Rock City.

Hello my lovelies,
So on Saturday I decided I would treat myself to a little shop at Topshop. I was in need of a few things and have recently lost all beanies so thought i would purchase a new one. I was so so happy when I walked through the door today and there it was my lovely package and all its' glory. The packaging for a start is so cute it's white with black dots all over it and is just super cute!

In the end I had bought one beanie two packs of hand and face wipes and a carmex lipbalm. In the rest of these pictures you can see just how cute the packaging is.

For my beanie I chose a simple black one and I know it's getting upto spring/summer but I love having beanies and black beanies are a simple must. They match every outfit and look good on almost anyone, any hair colour, skin colour etc. the hat didn't arrive with the bottom folded up but I think it looks cute like this. The hat isn't super soft but it is comfortable and, with me, it hasn't fallen off from tilting my head back as some hats do. The hat was about £10 and I really love it! (Look at the packaging! I said it was cute!)

Next thing is just something I needed as I ran out. Topshop sell these little mini face and hand wet wipes. These are perfect for putting in your handbag and keeping incase of emergencies. The first one I bought was 'cupcake' these are strawberry fragranced, they smell lovely and not too over powering they are really nice on my skin and leave me feeling super clean which is alwasy a good sign. The second ones I bought were just called 'hand&face' the packaging of these is superdy duperdy cute! They have little doodled hearts on them and are a bit mix-matched. These smell GORGEOUS! They smell of cherryade and are just genuinely lovely. These leave my skin feeling just as clean as the cupcake ones and I'm so happy I bought these. I think these were only £1.50 each.

The last thing I bought was some Carmex this is the most essential thing I think I have ever come across. It is amazing I think I could rave about this for years it's just brilliant! Please for the sake of your lips buy this. I think it was £3 which my seem a bit much but it is definitely worth every penny!

 I know I said that was the last thing but I didn't buy this. I went to my youth group last friday and my beautiful friend Alice had this on. I absolutely love it! As soon as I saw it I knew I had to blog about it! She bought it from NewLook and I'm afraid I have no idea how much it was but this is absolutely beautiful and suits her so well! The very very last thing I wanted to say was there is a sort of club place in Nottingham called Rock City and my youth group is taking over it 3 times this year. The first one is March 15th. The youth group is called Destiny and we are just planning on having an amazing time. tickets are £2 on the door and it starts at 7:30 and ends around 10. Please if you live in the area do yourself a favor and get yourself there! I promise you you won't regret it.
To give you a bit of a taster of this amazing place go watch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7q2pqZis10c
hope you all can come
much love <3
