Summer/Holiday fashion wish list | 2014

Hello Everyone! 
I hope you are all well and having a good start to June - supposedly the start of Summer!
So today I am here with a wishlist including some fashion items that I have my eye on or am looking to buy something similar too.  As you will see I have taken some items and given a few examples for them as I like a lot of things at the moment.. hahaha.  Now I have a lot of things that I have seen that I love however here are just a few of my favorites which I would love to purchase in time for the summer and before I go on holiday.  
Links to each item are linked throughout!
I hope you enjoy :)

First off is a white leather jacket!
I absolutely love my black leather jackets however I have found myself not wearing them as much as I would in the Autumn/Winter time as I am not keen on dressing so dark in the Summer.  Recently I have seen a couple of white leather jackets on clothing websites that I love however they mostly seem to be very expensive so I have found a couple of slightly cheaper alternatives that I am definitely looking into buying one of on my next pay day! 

First Jacket | Asos | £55
Second Jacket | Topshop | £48


White strappy sandals
 You may see a white trend occurring through this post... aha I absolutely love the white fashion trend that seems to be very popular at the moment - especially as it makes me looked more tanned! I love this style of sandals and have seen a few around but these are my favorites however the ones from boohoo are out of stock in my size at the moment so hopefully they will get some more in soon!

I love every pair of these as they are all different, and the first pair have a nice platform which would be a nice and comfy substitute for heels especially on holiday if you were going out for a meal!

First Pair | Boohoo | £25
Second Pair | Topshop | £22
Third Pair | Boohoo | £22

Summery Dresses!
At college we aren't really allowed to wear shorts... unless they're quite long which I don't really like and they definitely don't suit me! Haha, so dresses are the best thing to wear when it gets a bit hot as I don't really want to be sitting around in jeans when I could be getting a tan. 
 A couple of weeks ago me and Sarah went and tried on loaads of dresses (Including a few of the ones below) and I found that the 'smock dresses' suit me quite nicely and I am looking in to buying a few for college and for my holiday to Corfu in the summer as I think they'd be perfect! So here are a few that I am loving...

My favorite one is definitely the first one and I have already tried it on so that's something I am definitely going to be purchasing soon, but I love them all!  H&M has loads of affordable dresses which are really nice and light for the Summer.

1 | Topshop | £28
2 | Topshop | £28
3 | Topshop | £36
4 | H&M | £5.99
5 | H&M | £14.99

White denim High waisted shorts
I really want some white shorts because 1. They make me looked tanned and 2. They're just so pretty! These 2 pairs that I have found are both from Hollister and I can't really seem to find many high waisted pairs around at the moment.. as these 2 pairs are quite expensive I am hoping that somewhere like Topshop comes out with a nice pair soon!

1 | Hollister | £42
2 | Hollister | £42

High waisted 'Washed Black' Joni Jeans | Topshop | £36
I dont have a pair of these in grey yet and the other day I tried Sarah's on and I really liked them! Although they are not very summery they will still be great for when it's not so warm here in England!

Elephant Charm Choker Necklace | Ebay | £3.75
I've seen a few people wearing these and I used to wear things like it when I was little! I think they look really cute though and I've been loving shorter necklaces recently so this is pretty cheap and I would love to see if I can pull one off!

White 'Push em up' Bikini | Gilly Hicks | £34
(They also sell this on the Hollister website) Again... white makes me look tanned!  And a bit of push up is always nice when you don't have much hahah. 

And... that's everything!  Geeez, I'm going to be skint!
Let me know what your favorite thing on my list is, and what's on your wishlist for this Summer.
Also.. where are you going on holiday this year (If you are) let me know in the comments below!

I hope you enjoyed this post,
lotsa love

Christmas wishlist 2013 | Alanah's

Hello! So.. we haven't posted for a couple weeks - we have both been very busy with school so we apologize for that.  Now we are on our christmas holidays hopefully we will be posting more often! 5 days to go til christmas aaaaah!

Anyway, here is my christmas wishlist - I haven't really asked for a main present this year, just little bits but I hope I can give you inspiration (even though I know it may be a little late now!)

Enjoy!

Beauty

1. Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette | £37

I have never tried a Naked Palette but always wanted to, I think that the third one looks really pretty and I love the pinky colors in it.

2. Soap and Glory Thick & Fast Flash Extensions Mascara | £10.50

I absolutely love Soap & Glory mascaras but haven't tried this one so fingers crossed it's good!

3. MAC Lipstick in ‘Sandy B’ | £15

I mentioned this in my makeup wishlist a while back and haven't got round to buying it again, so christmas is the perfect excuse!

4. Sleek Face Contour Kit (Light) | £6.49 
 Looking forward to trying this kit it looks beautiful!

5. Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter (‘Sweet Tart’ and ‘Sorbet') | £7.99

I've only had one of these and I loved it, so why not ask for a couple more ay?

6. Maybelline Baby Lips lip balm (‘Pink Punch’ ‘Peach Kiss’ ‘Mint Fresh’) | £2.99 

I had 2 of these.. and then left them in The Harvester (restaurant) aha, I loved them though!

7. Rimmel Exaggerate Automatic Waterproof Eye Definer (Noir) | £3.99 

Just my everyday eyeliner!

8. Jimmy Choo Perfume 40ml  | £33.50 

Perfect smell! I've tried a few samples of this and I love it so much. 

 

Fashion

1. Bershka Fur collar jacket (Medium Grey) | £69.99

I haven't actually asked for this for christmas because I've only just found it, but I am planning on buying it after Christmas because I absolutely love it!

2. Gilly Hicks Red Plaid Bra | £14.99 at the moment!

I love this pattern so why not have it on a bra? Also Gilly Hicks bras are so so comfy and I recommend checking them out - they are all for sale at £14.99 at the moment!

3. Black Timberland Boots | Around £120 I think

I love Timberlands and have wanted them for aaaages. I decided to opt for the Black as I tend to wear much more black than brown. Also they're different to the original brown Timberlands which I like.  I think they will go with a lot of things and I am really looking forward to wearing them (If I get them)

4. Jewelry | Varied prices

I have asked for jewelry and given my mum a few examples of what I like just to give her an idea.  I just need a bit more really.. not too fussed what it is. (Necklaces, Bracelets, Earrings, Rings...)

5.  Topshop Textured V Neck Top (Bottle) | £16

I have a grey one of these and I love it, it's not too cropped and the pattern is very pretty. The green one looks lovely too.  I have also just asked for 'tops' in general because my Mum is usually pretty good at picking things out for me.

6. Deena & Ozzy New Strappy Satchel | £30-£40 (Now out of stock)

I needed a smaller black bag as the one I have is pretty big, so this one will be great for going out shopping etc..

Random!

1.  New York wallpaper | Around £40 on eBay (but you can bid on them too)

I am wanting to redecorate my bedroom and I think this would look soo cool on a bedroom wall, I also love New York so why not!

2. Gift Cards (Topshop, Gilly Hicks etc)

There are a few things I would like to pick out myself so from other family members I thought it could be nice to get giftcards and then I can chose what I like.

3. Earphones

I just need some more because I keep breaking my old ones.. woooops!

4. Guitar Capo and Strings

Just need some new ones!

5. FOOOOD! 

Mainly M&M's because they're my favourite, but I have also asked for some Lindors and Nerds.  They will make good stocking fillers I think.

6. Blonde highlights

Obviously I can't get these on christmas, just maybe a gift card or something - or a booking to get them done in a salon.  

7. TV box for my TV

I have a TV.. but no box for it so I can't actually watch anything on it at the moment haha..

 

Okay so that's everything!

Now obviously I am not going to get all of this, but I like to give a lot of options and this is for my whole family I presume.  Also, my Mum likes to give surprises at christmas so she doesn't get everything on our lists.

I hope that you can get some gift ideas for other people my age (16) from this, and also maybe some things for your list (even though it's a tad late now!).  I hope you enjoyed, 

Happy Christmas!

My Fashion Wishlist | Autumn/Winter 2013

Hello, today I'm going to share with you some of the fashion items I'm hoping to get this Autumn/Spring. Now as I don't yet own any of these products these are not my own photo's, however all links from where I got the images will be linked bellow.

1 | Black Ankle Boots

I've started to realize that all the shoes I own are very summery. I'm not very adventurous with shoes and will always be wearing Vans, Converse or Nike's. However this season I'm hoping to broaden my shoe collection by purchasing a pair of black ankle boots. I've seen these worn on many people and I think they can make a plain outfit look a lot more sophisticated.

2 | Baggy Christmas Jumpers

I recently purchased a Christmas jumper from Primark, which I haven't worn yet (but its SOOO tempting!) I find that jumpers can look really lovely on anyone, and they are super comfy, which is always a must in the winter. I want a mix of thin and thick jumpers so I can layer up the thin ones and wear the thick ones on those lazy days.

3 | Faux Leather Midi Dress

Now Nicole Scherzinger is such an inspiration for fashion to me. I just think she always looks so beautiful and she can wear anything and look lovely. Recently watching Celebrity Juice, Nicole was wearing a dress identical to this one, and it looked stunning and perfect for the colder months. Now I am very short at 5ft 1, so I struggle to find midi dresses that don't come down to my ankles, but I'll have to hunt for this.

4 | Grey Timberlands

These are another shoe I feel I'll be needing this Winter. These shoes are defiantly coming in for the end of the year. They are very similar to Doc Martins, but I prefer these. They come in a range of colors and I think I'd get a lot of wear out of the grey ones, especially as I don't own any grey shoes currently.

5 | Statement Necklaces 

Although these aren't clothing, they are a fashion accessory thats a definate must have for this Autumn and Winter. They reallu add something to a plain jumper or top. You can have such a variation of necklaces and I think I'll most likely be adding some to my collection.

Thankyou for reading the post

What fashion items are you hoping to be purchasing this Autumn/Winter?

My Beauty Wishlist | Autumn/Fall 2013

Hello! Hope you are all goood, sorry I haven't posted in a couple days - I am soo busy with college its crazy.  So anyway, today I have my wishlist of beauty products that I have been wanting to try/get my hands on in time for the Winter.  Hope you enjoy!

Obviously I couldn't take photos myself as I do not yet own them, photo credits will be listed underneath.

1. Mac Lipstick in the shade 'Sandy B'.

I've only owned 2 Mac lipsticks in my life and I've somehow managed to lose both of them.. typical me really.  'Sandy B' was the first one i bought and I loved it so now I am looking to buy myself another one.

On the website it is described as a 'light shell pink' and it is a 'Frost' lipstick.  I really like this because it creates just the right amount of sheen to your lips along with a 

very natural color.

2. Sleek EyeShadow I Divine Palette in 'Oh So Special'

I absolutely love Sleek eyeshadow palettes and so far I own 2 (woooo) which i use regularly.  This palette contains some girly shades such as pinks and purples. 
 I want this palette because I don't really wear pink on my eyelids and I would like to give it a try.  I also really love the look of the dark blues and purples in this palette.

3. Topshop Highlighter in 'Crescent Moon'
I saw this highlighter reviewed on Jane from poptartsbeauty blog and it looks really pretty.  I have never really owned a decent highlighter and I think this one looks perfect for £9 with student discount to give highlighters a try!

4. Topshop Lipstick in 'Wicked'
This color is soo perfect for Winter, I've been looking for one this color so I am very much looking forward to buying this.  I have also never tried a Topshop lipstick and I have heard very good things about them so I will let you know how it is.

5. Babyliss Pro Perfect Curl
I dont actually own a curling iron - which is surprising considering I curl my hair a lot, but I just use a straightening iron!  That does work however sometimes hair gets a bit stuck and I have been on the look out for a curler, this new one seems soo fun to be honest.  It makes perfect curls, sucks your hair up in to it and is super fast (so I've heard) so what more would I want! Haha, anyway this item is rather expensive so will definitely have to be one I save up for - but it definitely looks worth it.

6. Bourjois Volume Glamour Max Mascara
My Mum has this mascara and I love it so much, it works really well on my eyelashes and gives them loads of volume.  I hadn't really heard much about this mascara before but for me it gave lots of volume and the brush really spread apart my lashes making sure they weren't clumpy.  So I am looking to buy this, actually copying my Mum for once!


Thank you for reading, that is everything on my wishlist for the current time!
Please let me know if these products are good.

Also could anyone recommend me a good bronzer, I am currently looking for a new one, Thank You!
