Boohoo Wishlist

Hi!

Today I thought I'd share my Boohoo wishlist with you all. I've really been loving the clothes that they have on there more than some of the high street shops and other online clothing sites. Here I'll share with you some of my picks.

All photos are from Boohoo.

 
Hannah Fisherman Rib Jumper - £15.00
This jumper is  really gorgeous shade of purple, which is one of my favourite colours and I thought it would be really nice and cosy for the upcoming autumn/winter months!!


Petite Hannah Bird Embroidered T-Shirt - £12.00
This t shirt looks really cute and I love the little flamingo on the left side of the top. It's just a really nice twist to a basic tee and would be nice to throw on for a lecture.


Holly Sequin Embellished Hook & Eye Bralet - £22.00
This blush coloured bralet is so pretty and I love the fact it's sparkly because of the sequins and I think it would be great for any special occasion.
 
 
Ali Square Cold Shoulder Bodycon Dress - £10.00
I love cold shoulder clothes and this dress has long sleeves too which is great for the fact that it's going to be colder in the coming months.

Penny Slogan Sweatshirt - £16.00
As I love wearing sweatshirts and cosy hoodies at the moment, I saw this on Boohoo and instantly had to add it to my wishlist. I was born in the 90s so it fits me well and I like the red one better than the black as I already have a black sweatshirt which is my 'Lemonade' one.

Emma Ribbed Contrast Ringer Tee - £10.00
Another really nice basic t shirt which I can wear to lectures or for a casual outfit, I like the fact the top of the t shirt and the sleeves have the black rib.
Petite Kayla Flute Sleeve Crop Top - £10.00
I was looking around for dressier tops and found this mainly because I wanted to add a bit of colour because looking through my wishlist a lot of the clothes were either black or burgundy!! This is probably my least wishful item on this list but it's still nice and I love the shade of blue.


Rebecca Ladder Trim Detail Peplum Hem Midi Dress - £22.00
This is another dress which caught my eye, I really love the peplum end to it, it gives it a nice edge and makes it look nicer in my opinion.

Thank you for reading this post, is there anything you'd buy from this list?

L'oreal Cheryl Lip Kits

 
 Hey everyone!

So this week there was a important release in the makeup world. L'oreal launched Cheryl's matte lip kits which with every kit sold, £1 will be donated to Prince's Trust. As a long-time fan of Cheryl, it was very exciting to hear she had brought out her own lip kits as I'm a huge fan of matte finish.

The kits themselves look absolutely stunning as you can see below.

Photos from Cheryl's Instagram Account: @cherylofficial


They come in three different shades 'Greige', 'Burgundy', and 'Peach'.
Each kit comes with a matte lipstick and a lip liner.

I personally love all of the shades and despite them being limited edition, I'll try and get my hands on one of them! My favourite colour keeps changing so I'm not sure which one I'll buy.

The lip kits are available limited edition in Boots stores and online, costing £9.99.

Which of Cheryl's Lip kits is your favourite? Let me know in the comments!

My Top Clothing Stores

Hi!

So today I thought I'd share my favourite places to shop for clothes. I don't particularly spend loads on clothes, I try to budget and don't often spend loads on one item, if I spend loads of money on clothes it usually means I've bought a few things!

Boohoo.com
I've definitely become obsessed with Boohoo.com this year. My wishlist is so long and I'm always browsing looking at what they have in. I love the variety of clothes they have and a lot of them are extremely reasonably priced. Especially this season I've found that Boohoo has a lot more nicer stuff than the high street!

Primark
Primark have served me really well over the past few years. I'd be lying if I said the majority of my wardrobe wasn't Primark to be honest! They have such a good selection of clothes and I live for their basic t shirts! They are so easy to throw on for everyday wear and can work under a hoodie or sweatshirt too. They do pretty much everything and I love going there.

New Look
New Look is also another regular shop I visit. They often have a good selection of night time tops, I bought quite a few night out clothes last year from them. At the moment they have some gorgeous bralettes in and some stunning sparkly Christmas dresses if you're looking for anything for party season. Extremely affordable and like Boohoo and Topshop they do student discount.

Topshop
I don't always have the budget for Topshop but they have some really gorgeous clothes. I also particularly like the fact they carry the Ivy Park range. They have a lot to offer.

George @ Asda
Despite what people may think, George at Asda do really good and affordable clothes. Although I don't wear as much from them as I used to, I've been so impressed with some of the pairs of jeans I've bought from there. I usually just shop for jeans here these days because they are very inexpensive but they are great quality!

Sainsburys
Similarly, I mainly use Sainsburys for their jeans/jeggings but they still have some really nice pieces. They are also really affordable and easy to find.

Amazon
I love finding really quirky tops and sweatshirts from Amazon. You will often find really nice and fun clothes that not everyone will be wearing from Amazon and they are often reasonably priced too. I own a Yonce t shirt and a Lemonade sweatshirt from Amazon and they are both impeccable quality and two of my favourite items in my wardrobe.

Romwe
Although I've never bought from Romwe personally, I am guilty of regularly searching the website for cute sweatshirts and hoodies. They look really cosy and I'm so tempted to buy from them to see how they are!

Thank you so much for reading!!

OOTD: Casual Uni Day

Hey!
I thought I'd do my first ever OOTD post, which is just a casual outfit as I was only attending uni so I decided to just go for something casual. My Lemonade sweatshirt is extremely comfy and perfect for this time of year as it starts to get cooler.

This is the first time I've actually ever done a post like this so I'm aware I'm not used to being on camera but I did manage to get a few photos which I'll share below.

Jeans: New Look
Boots: M&S

Aaliyah for MAC Collection

Hey!

It's been a while since my last post but since then, MAC confirmed that they would be launching an Aaliyah collection. As someone who's a big fan of the late R&B star, I'm excited about the prospect of a collection dedicated to her.

Due to be released next summer, the collection is to be put together after fans launched a petition for a makeup collection inspired by her style.
Aaliyah was one of my favourite singers who released 3 albums and appeared in two feature films before her tragic death in August 2001, her music was timeless R&B and her smooth and angelic vocals still sound relevant today. Her style began very tomboy and then as she grew older, she proceeded to a more sophisticated style.

One of the makeup items I'm sure will feature is a gorgeous red lipstick, as Aaliyah wore in the We Need A Resolution music video.

Are you an Aaliyah fan? How excited are you for the collection and what would you like to see?
