Spring Wish List

Spring has sprung! Well, sort of (...I say this mainly because I don't know if it's actually
Spring or not. Probably not).

I saw the first blossom tree a week or so ago! And now I'm seeing them everywhere.
Which is awesome because as much as I like autumn and winter, the trees are bare and
branches are only pretty to a certain extent.
Also, I'm seeing lots of daffodils growing. Though not quite grown yet, they're getting there.

So I thought I'd create a Spring wish list and share it with you! I've seen some lovely
Spring themed things in the shops lately.
For Spring, I'm liking pale colours. Light blues, light greens, light pinks. And light florals.
Flowy dresses. Lace. Bows. And all those lovely things.

The shoes are a definite favourite. I like brown-ish/nude coloured shoes for Spring.
And midi skirts, because Spring is slightly warmer so you can just about bare not having
to wear knit tights or jeans.

Also sorry for my absence, I've missed a few days of the makeup challenge.
But I took a few days to gain sanity, become less busy and catch up with a few things.

I'll be back posting photos for the makeup challenge from Monday.
(I won't be starting again, I'll be carrying on from Day 20, or wherever we're up to etc. 
but obviously it won't be photos from the days I missed, it'll be Monday onwards).

I hope you have a great weekend!
What are your Spring staples? Let me know below! :)

Valentines Day Gift Guide

{source}

Valentines Day is next week (!!) Are you excited? Or has my revelation made you come
out in a panicked sweat because you're yet to find a gift?! (I severely hope that hasn't happened).
Well, fear not! I've found some wonderful gift ideas no matter who you're buying for 
Because, v-day's for friends too, you know.

(Photos are linked).

For Her:

I went into New Look the other day and can vouch that Pure Dusk smells amazing!
So that's definitely a fave pick of mine.

For Him:

The Fun Stuff:

Fun novelty gifts are great if you're buying for friends!
Do I want an elephant lamp? Of course I do!

Bought any V-day presents yet? Let me know! :)

Frostine + Double Denim // #100DaysofMakeup

(Almost) double denim today. Because for some reason I decided to dress like it
wasn't gale force winds outside. This is actually one of my favourite tops, but like
many of my clothes it's not winter friendly... which is why I'm wearing a chunky
cardigan over it.

Because of the no-make-up-wipes situation I didn't take a photo of day #9's make up
because it was pretty much exactly the same as the day before.
But, today's make up makes up for that!
I got my Urban Decay Gwen Stefani Lipsticks in the post yesterday....

And I wore 'Phone Call' today which is amazing!

I've taken photos of all 3 lipsticks I got and will be posting about them soon :)

P.S - I did my eyeliner in a rush, which is something you should never do obviously,
and so that's why it looks like that.

Happy Tuesday!

OOTD // Polka Dots + Epic Sale Top

The struggle is real. I want to wear Spring clothes in winter but I don't want to be cold.
I don't really do winter clothes as such... I love sweaters like you wouldn't believe but that's pretty much the extent of my winter wardrobe. Sweaters. Just sweaters.
As much as I like to convince myself that knit tights can keep my legs warm, they really
don't. So I'm resorting to jeans.
It's not that I'm not a fan of jeans (I very much am), it's that they never fit me.
Find some that fit my waist and you're doing good, find some that fit my short-as-hell
legs and you've pretty much hit the jackpot!
When I do find jeans that fit me they're usually not really in my budget - and jeans
aren't really something I wanna break the bank on.
But recently I picked up some new jeans from primark, which I think were about £7 or £8,
and they fit me pretty well.
I'm liking dark blue denim quite a lot at the minute...

But let's not forget to mention that this pretty white scalloped top cost me £1 in the sale at primark (!!) I'm guessing because they're quite summery/not winter friendly they're trying to sell them quickly.
But I'm definitely down for buying tops for £1 no matter what season they suit!
