TOPSHOP WANTS

Damn the 'New Arrivals' page on the Topshop website. I feel like I want the majority of things on there! Considering it's payday for me and probably the rest of the country this Friday, I always have the urge to log  onto every clothing website and "browse" for things I want. However, it never ends up being just "browsing" it always ends up in purchasing things that I probably don't need. 

'Ribbon Twist Collar' Necklace £18.50:  Statement necklaces are EVERYWHERE at the moment. They change a simple plain t-shirt/outfit into something completely different. Just the adding of a necklace is surprising just how much it changes the entire outfit. Even though this necklace is slightly pricey, I say this just because I've emptied out Primark's stock of statement necklaces which are only £4 each! I love the pale pink and grey effect on this necklace and the diamond effect completes the look. I am EXTREMELY tempted to go and see this in the store to see if it looks as nice. There's been a lot of times where items look much better online so I hope this necklace doesn't..if it looks as it does on the website, I can happily say it will be added to my collection of statement necklaces.


Nail Varnish 'Gel Effect Top Coat' £5.00: I've bought nearly every single nail varnish from the Barry M Gelly Collection and I am impressed with those. The only thing that is disappointing is the colour range. They are obviously gradually going to bring out newer colours but I feel like I would like my 100+ nail varnishes that I've already got (I know, ridiculous right?!) to have the gel effect. When I saw this on the Topshop website I knew I would have to try it out, I hope it doesn't disappoint and isn't just a 'clear top coat' that makes absolutely no difference. If anyone has tried this, please let me know what you think!


'Lip Butter in There She Goes' £8.00: Topshop lipsticks are very very good. I own around 3-4 and even though that's not that many, I love the moisturising feel on my lips when it has been applied. I hope that these lip butters have the same effect as I adore the colour of this one! Have anyone of you tried the lip butters?

'Wanda Leather Strip Wedges' £75.00:  These wedges were the first thing I saw and loved on the 'new arrivals' page. I understand that they probably won't be everyone's cup of tea but personally I absolutely love them. Because I'm 5 foot 10/11 I wouldn't purchase them but I think they are PERFECT for the upcoming summer months. I'm undecided which colour I prefer the best,  I'm thinking the tan pair are more summer colours than the grey ones. 

'Zig Zag Aztec Tunic' £26.00: Again, this is another item which won't be liked by everyone. I thought it would look nice with a bright coloured bag and accessories. It reminded me of the tops that are currently out with all the comic book look. Maybe that's just me that thinks that? Most probably. 

What do you all think of these items? Would you purchase any of them?

Wishlist Wednesday #3

It's that time of the week again, another Wishlist Wednesday post. That's 3 in a row now *pats myself on the back*. It's quite depressing when you think about it as it shows how many products & items I want but can't actually get, sad times for me. 
I only had a few items this week as I've only just recently discovered 2 of the products mentioned. 

Products on this week's 'Wishlist Wednesday': 
  • Zara Office City Bag £49.99 - http://www.zara.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product/uk/en/zara-neu-S2013/358019/1098567/OFFICE%2BCITY%2BBAG 
This is one of the items that I have only known about for the past week, which may come as a surprise to the many of you as I know how much this bag has been spoken about and how much people love it. I have only started reading reviews about this over the last couple of days and I have to say it seems like a bag I would love. The numerous amount of compartments is extremely appealing to me as I have the bucket bag from Zara and I don't think it's organised enough as it seems as a huge mess in my bag when I put all my items in there. I am extremely tempted to spend my last £50 of Christmas money on this beauty - I know what you're all thinking 'she still has Christmas money!' I can't believe it either if I'm being honest. I'm still not 100% sure whether I'm going to purchase it, mainly because of the price but people have said that it is worth the money so it is tempting for me to buy it.

  • LUSH 'The Immaculate Eggception' - £6.95 each - https://www.lush.co.uk/product/5837/The-Immaculate-Eggception---Pink
Another recent discovery and when I saw these I thought 'wow they look amazing!'. I've been a fan of LUSH products for a while now and I love the smell of most of their products. I haven't actually seen these new Easter designed products in store so I'll definitely be looking out for them. Have any of you seen them? 

  • MUJI Acrylic boxes - wide: £10.95 http://www.muji.eu/pages/online.asp?Sec=9&Sub=39&PID=2424 
Loads of people I watch on YouTube & read their blogs have used these boxes to store their make up and I always think they look so organised and nice. I actually think I will be purchasing these later today because my make up is poorly organised and I can never find the stuff that I need so these will be a god send! 


What's on your 'Wishlist Wednesday'? Do you own any of the items that I've mentioned?

Wishlist Wednesday #2

ITEMS:
 Ted Baker IPad Mini case - £35
 Pandora Charm - £20
 Mulberry Purse -£225 (ouch!) 
♥ Pandora Leather Bracelet - £50


Ted Baker IPad Mini case:
I've been wanting Ted Baker to do IPad Mini cases since I received mine for Christmas in December. I noticed that they do a really cute one in a baby pink or black colour, which I'm still undecided on what one to get. I do get 15% student discount in there which will take it under £30, it's expensive for a case but I think this would be an item which I would use constantly.

Pandora Charm & Leather Bracelet:
This Pandora bracelet is something I look at every single time I go shopping. For some reason, I never got round to purchasing it, however, I do believe my next pay cheque will be paying for this bracelet for sure and possibly even the beautiful heart charm that I've also spotted! Once again my pay cheque will be mostly rinsed in a couple of days, uh-oh!

Charm: http://estore.pandora.net/Openwork-Heart-Charm/790964,default,pd.html?navid=search&start=1&q=790964

Bracelet: http://estore.pandora.net/Triple-Leather-Bracelet---Black/590705CBK-T,default,pd.html?navid=search&start=1&q=590705CBK-T


Mulberry Purse:
I think this will FOREVER be on my wishlist and never become a reality. Even though the purses are lovely I don't think I'd be able to hand over £225 for a purse..

What's on all your wishlists this week? Do you own any of the items on my wishlist?

Wishlist Wednesday


Topshop '1/2 sleeve' Jumper - £18
I was browsing the 'new in' section on the Topshop website & found this jumper. I love jumpers that are perfect for a lazy day indoors, comfort all the way. When I went to check the sizes in stock it showed that it was unavailable in every size *sad face*, I will just have to keep an eye out for this in the shops and even check online every couple of days. 
http://www.topshop.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=1&viewAllFlag=&catalogId=33057&storeId=12556&productId=9152993&langId=-1&sort_field=Relevance&categoryId=277012&parent_categoryId=208491&pageSize=20 


Black Studded Bag - H&M - £29.99
I first saw this bag in store and wasn't 100% sure on it BUT after seeing it with an outfit on a blog I wanted it. I went into one of my local stores and then was torn between the 2 colours as they have this available in a cream/white and the black. Then I wasn't sure about the price because the bag isn't overly big and I left it which I was I hadn't done as I've come home and decided I wanted it but I can't find it anywhere online!! I will have to hope it's still in my local store as I have to have it.

FAST Shampoo & Conditioner 
These have only been released in Boots  a couple of days now but I'd read a few articles online before and they've had a lot of hype behind them. I am always looking for products to make my hair grow fast, I'm currently using the Lee Stafford product for hair that doesn't grow past a certain length and I have noticed some minor differences. I'm quite impatient so this shampoo and conditioner is VERY appealing to me. The products seem extremely pricey but all the reviews I've read have been positive. I'm a bit torn as I don't know whether to splash the cash on this product but if it worked I would be over the moon (obviously). I might wait to see more reviews before finally making my decision.

Urban Decay Naked Basics
Unlike the majority of the population I don't actually own a Urban Decay Naked palette and I do actually feel like I'm missing out. Every one loves this product but I think if I was to purchase one I would go for the new-ish one that has the 'basic' colours in it.
