Topshop Wishlist

I'm a big fan of Topshop, just as much as any other girl, and they certainly have some amazing pieces on their website lately, that I just can't stop looking through it! I'm loving the vertical stripe/beetlejuice style pieces and the pastel colours they have going on. I wish I could afford all their clothes, but here are the ones that I've had my eye on for a while now and that are at the top of my list to get some time soon I hope.

1. Lace Collar Blouse by Sister Jane, £45.00.
2. Heidi Dress by Motel, £42.00.
3. Moto Anchor Denim Jacket, £50.00.
4. Pony Pendant Necklace, £12.50.
5. Dr Martens 8 Eye Smooth Boots, £100.00.
6. Retro Snake Trim Satchel, £34.00.
7. Jordan Jeans by Motel, £48.00.

Collective Haul: New Look, Vintage Fair, Boots and more....

This is a small collective haul from over the last 2 weeks. Not much for a collective haul but I still wanted to share what I've bought with you guys. I should also have some ootd's up within the next week or two featuring my new clothes.

Here's a few things I bought from Bodycare. I've been after a good shampoo and conditioner for a while to give my hair a healthy look again, and I've heard good things about the V05 ones, and since I've tried their heat spray and hairspray and loved them, I was hoping these would be just as good and they really are so I'm pleased I got these. They were only 99p each which is great for such good products.
I got the usual Simple Facial Wipes as I always do, they're the best facial wipes in my opinion and these were (I think) £1.99.
I needed some more body sprays and these Charlie ones are only 99p each. Pink has always been my favourite one and I also wanted to try their new Enchant one too, which is also a lovely scent.
Also picked up a nail polish remover as I've been needing a new one for a while and I've already used this. It's really good, but I can't recall the price of it, it's definitely somewhere between £1 and £2 though.

I have been wanting one of the Collection 2000 lip creams since they launched them back in last year, they look so nice and I finally decided to get one. I got Number 1 'Cotton Candy', and it's just such a nice lip cream. I might do a review on it if anyone would like to see one but I think there may already have been so many reviews on them out there.

I got this 'K' initial necklace from Primark, and I just had to get it as I've been looking for an initial necklace for a long time time. It was only around £2 and it has little rhinestones all over it.

I picked up these gorgeous earrings from New look. I've been wanting some nice feathered, hoop earrings for a while now so I got these. They were somewhere around £3 and I'm a bit disappointed in how poor they are made though as all the other ones on the rack had feathers missing and were just ruined, and I thought these were the only ones that were fine until two feathers feell off while I was wearing them unfortunately. Still lovely though but due to the shade of pink that my hair is, I do wish they had them in blue, I think they would have looked a lot nicer with my hair then.

I went to a local Vintage Fair two weeks ago and one stall had some great rockabilly style cropped tops like this one. I'm really into polkadots lately so I bought this one for £24. It was quite expensive but definitely worth it. This top has also had quite a lot of reactions when I've worn it in public too, mostly nagative reactions but I hardly care about what other people think of me only showing about 3cm of belly, because I love how it looks and that's what matters the most.

I also bought this amazing cameo necklace from the Vintage Fair too. I've seen these all over Etsy.com but have never decided to buy one up until I saw this, and it was only £6 too! even though it's showing up as a copper/gold colour on here too, it's actually a silver colour. I just love this, it goes with so many things.

Finally on Thursday I got these two dresses. They're available in both House of Fraser and New Look, but I bought them both seperately. The red one from House of Fraser and the dark navy blue (it looks black on here) one from New Look. I bought them seperately because the fabric on the blue ones that were in House of Fraser were all frayed on the seams and the bows were ruined etc... so I got it from New Look instead, and it was the only one with no problems. I just had to get it though because I've been after it for so long now and as I said earlier, I have quite a thing for polkadots right now.
Left dress was around £12, and the right dress was £30.

I hope you enjoyed this post.

REVIEW: Vintage Lip Balms by Technic.

I was in Bodycare a couple of weeks ago looking at some of the makeup, and I noticed these pretty lip balms. I'm an absolute lover of vintage so these definitely caught my eye and as I was amazed to not have seen one review on these yet I thought I would share these amazing finds with everyone as they are a personal favourite of mine now.
The packaging is lovely as you can see, with a pin-up girl and flowers.
I only have three of them but they do come in 4 different flavours/shades/scents:
Kir Royale, Long Island Iced Tea, Margarita, and Blue Lagoon.

Kir Royale has a really sweet, fruity scent to it, a bit like mango or kiwi, it's hard to pin point the scent of this one but it's such a nice one and it's the one I've worn the most so far..
Long Island Iced Tea has a very sweet, bubblegum type scent to it, it's definitely my personal favourite out of these three.
Margarita has a very strong scent, and if you don't like alcohol, I highly doubt you will like this one. When I first smelt it I was very surprised at how much it really did smell like alcohol but it takes some getting used to and after a while it doesn't smell so bad, but in all honesty it isn't exactly the nicest out of the three.
I'm going to buy Blue Lagoon when I head into town this weekend and I shall do a mini review on that when I include it in a collective haul next week.

What I love most about these lip balms is that they leave your lips so soft and they last for so long too. They feel really moisturising and I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for a good balm for dry lips that isn't sticky.

These are only 99p each from Bodycare and for that price you can't go wrong!

My Shoe Collection.

My shoe collection is very, very small compared to other ones that I have seen on Blogger or Youtube. I used to have more, but recently had a clear out of my wardrobe so I got rid of the ones that had been worn out so much. So I now only have 7 pairs, (well actually 8, I have a pair of Purple Wrangler boots somewhere but could not find them anywhere) and that's enough shoes for me.

Hot Pink Ballet Flats - £10, Matalan.

These are my latest shoes, I only bought them a few days ago and I love them! I never used to wear ballet flats or any type of flat shoe as I was never able to walk in really, really flat ones, but since I've had to wear flat shoes for college I've got more used to them, and I'm always looking for a nice pair of ballet flats when I go shopping now.

Purple heels - New Look.

I bought these almost 4 years ago, and as you can tell from the heel, they're only a little too big. I swear they used to be able to fit me and my feet just shrunk though, nevermind.
They do manage to fit fairly comfortable but due to no platform and a thin, high heel (it's slightly higher than what it looks in this photo) I can't wear them for very long. I do really like these though even if I don't get to wear them often.

Black Lace-Up Heels - New Look.

I bought these in July last year and they were the first heels I ever managed to learn how to walk in. They can be a bit uncomfortable after a few hours but I usually don't notice anyway. They're not that high either so they're really easy to walk in and are one of my favourite pairs of shoes.

Black Faux-Leather Studded Heels - New Look.

Some more from New Look, and these I bought about 3/4 years ago. These are also a little too big.  Not much to say on them really. I can manage to walk in them and I've only worn them once or twice. I'll probably get rid of these soon because I don't really like the look of them anymore.

Burgundy Lace-Up Heels - New Look.

I bought these just over a month ago, and they're my favourite heels. The colour is lovely, and they're so comfy because of the thick heel and the support around the ankle. These are the shoes I get the most wear out of.

Red and Black T-Bar Block Heels - New Look.

I got these in December just before Christmas for £10 in the sale. I absolutely love these, but they're so uncomfortable, which is so disappointing as they're gorgeous! They bows also have black glitter on the inside which you can see a little when you're wearing them. I'm going to try get some gel soles to put in them and see if that will make them more bearable.

Purple Faux-Velvet Wedges - Jonathan James.

I bought these in July. They are really comfy but difficult to walk along the pavement in. I tend to change shoes and put them on when I get to the pub on a night out because I've almost twisted my ankle and fallen over many times only on a 20 minute walk into town with friends. They're amazing though, and also one of my favourites.
