Essentials shopping...

And an extra or two :)

I'm off to a friend's 20th on Sunday (sooo excited, apart from the brief panic of having to dress up as farm animal...wtf? Don't worry it's been sorted aka not happening) and my current pumps (or flats depending on which country you are hailing from) are probably about a 500 meter walk from the soles falling off.

Side notes, does anyone resent how little wear you get out of £30 pumps/flats compared to say converses which are about £40 or even bigger boots which are maybe more like £60 but last years? Maybe it's my student tight-pocketness but this annoys me.

So, anyway... I bought these.

These were £25 from Next which I have to say I was surprised about. I saw a pair of kind of plastic-y looking pumps that were £30 so I expected these to be more.

MASSIVE feet. Why God cursed me with skis for feet is as yet unknown.

These are the tassel bits at the front. I actually really like them although they are completely different from what I'd normally buy when looking for flat shoes.

Another (boring) necessity was some deodorant (I decided not to bore you with photos) and instead took photos of;

Finally got my hands on Sugar Crush by Soap and Glory BUT I have banned myself from touching (except the odd sniff) it until my flake away is finished. Boots currently have a three for two and so I got my friend's Birthday presents and a cheeky treat for myself.

Two treats;

This one didn't want to photograph well. The Palmers Cocoa Butter Lip Balm. I might do a review of this soon because so far I'm loving it! Smells delicious too ;)

That's all for now my dears xxx

Hold me back from the shops ladies!

The day after I was at River Island I went to one of the big shopping centres in Edinburgh solely for the purpose of trying on Uggs in schuh. We (mother and I) figure once the foot has healed they will be comfiest.

However, in the end I got boots that I guess look a bit like Uggs but are called "Fit Flops". They are honestly so strange because they have a slightly curved sole, kind of like my moot boot. Very comfy though! Fraction of the price too :)

I also somehow managed to pick up a top from Warehouse which I think was £25;

I wasn't even particularly looking for anything but I just saw this and it really stood out because of the lace at the top. 

And the tassel bits at the bottom are rather cute. It's really pretty on, I was worried the material was going to be clingy but it's not and it hangs really well.

I also got a jumper. This is my new favourite piece of clothing. It's from Joy and was £35 if I hadn't fallen hook, line and sinker for it I wouldn't have got it. But it's soooo pretty.

I love the colour! And it's really warm :) It's beautiful.

Bye my lovlies x x x

Lovely new Hat ;)

Well, it is Christmas time... sort of. But it's still bloody cold in Scotland. And I do need a hat! That cannot be contested!

However, do I need a hat costing £32 pounds... well no. But It was the last one! I loved it since I saw Fleur ( youtube ) wearing it. I looked for ages, then gave up hope.

Went shopping with the boyfriend back in Edinburgh and Oh My God the last one left!

It's extravagant . It's silly. Awfully expensive for a novelty item. But I just love it. A woman told me today it was lovely so I stand by my "ridiculous" ( as the boyfriend put it) choice.

I'm currently loving on my nails;

I appreciate the picture quality is poor. But the colour on the nails is very true its Elf  - Red Velvet. It's gorgeous it's red but definitely has the right amount of pink in it. It's gorgeous!

I'm planning on showing what I got over the university break, although not in the sales as they were rubbish! Massively excited to get my new camera :)

Love and kisses to you all. Oh look >>>> twitter :O :O :O

Crazy Shopping

I have literally been buying far too much. I think I have an addiction/problem most likely owing to exams approaching and my need to release the tension.

Annoyingly due to the ridiculously crap Scottish weather (being dark for 80% of the day) I have only been able to get one good(ish) photo and that is off this lovely H&M jumper;

I think it was only about £10 and is super cosy. I absolutely love the neckline :) I'm loving being able to justify spending lots of money on warm jumpers because of the freezing weather.

I will try to get some decent photos in the 2 hours of daylight we get of my other things.

I also waxed (veet) my legs for the first time yesterday (DON'T DO IT!!!) okay it wasn't soooo bad but gah. Don't think it's for me. Right I'm off to revise (Watch Julie & Julia). 


Take care x x x

Must be Winter

So my River Island jumper arrived (Still waiting for H&M grrrrr) and I thought I'd share it with the blogosphere.

I also (finally) found the perfect big jumper with the peeeerfect buttons I've been looking for for literally months.

So firstly to the River Island beeeeautiful Cowl neck jumper mabob thing :P....

I think this was a sale item and was £12 and for me the only annoying thing about it is the lack of sleeves. Apart from that I love it, especially the turquoise colour and the neck its just mmm :)

As for the Primark jumper... well its Primark so obviously they only had sizes 16 and 20. No 12s and no 14s useless. But I decided for the perfect buttons and the fact I'd been looking for sooooo(ooooooooo) long I should really just go for it. And I'm very glad I did as it's super cosy.

It is fairly big but I'm never really going to have it buttoned up so... 

As for the buttons... drum roll....

ooft are they not just puurrrrfect?

Ah I Love it. This was also £12 which for primark I thought was a bit above the usual? But then I've not really been in there for a while. 

I also picked up something else I've been looking for...

Nothing too exciting just some £2.50 woolly tight... winter :) 

I had also planned to show you more Kate Moss lipsticks I picked up (I think I have a problem) and some nail varnishes (okaaaaay two problems) but the lighting today is ridiculously bad. Stupid Scotland getting dark at like two in the afternoon. 

oh well :) Take care x x
