Haul || Topshop Pre-Summer Sale

    Just a little quick post, as I've been rather busy over the course of the day. Anyhow today I ventured into town with my cousin and decided to have a little nosey in Topshop considering they had a sale on. There were so many nice piece available but I had only brought out so much money so I had to restrict myself to just three purchases and here they are.




    Hallelujah I finally own another pair of paisley trousers! These trousers are hands down my favourite purchase of the month so far, they have an elasticated band which make them so comfortable to sit down in and don't stick into your skink. What I love especially about these trousers is that they're slim leg created that polished look, because of this I feel I can wear these in the day but dress them up with a court heel for the night time.



    Everybody by now should know that cami's are essential pieces to everybodies wardrobe and can set off any outfit. This piece was not in the sale unfortunately so I did pay full price however it is very worth it, these cami's are sheer so make sure to wear a bra the same shade or just a nude one and you'll be alright.  



    Lastly is this really delicate dress, I love dresses as you all know so I can't say no when something this pretty is on sale for almost half price. The cut out detailing at the sides are really sweet and give the dress character instead of being a plain floaty dress. The material is very thin too so it's perfect to wear over the warmer seasons without tights (or with).

Miniature Sale Haul

    I visited Manchester the other week to do some recordings for a YouTuber that is close to me and decided to pick up some things as the sales are in full force right now in the UK. I didn't pick up as many things as I'd wish due to lack of money at the moment, but I hope some of the items might appeal to you.



    The first thing I picked up was these book ends, in the next month or so I'll be moving house and starting college. I thought these quirky melted down vinyls would do wonders for the amount of new text books I'll have to use on a regular basis. 

    I picked these up from Urban Outfitters for a cheap £5, originally £10. Inside you get two melted down vinyls that are the exact same design as those on the box above. I've already tried these out with some books I already own and they work wonders. Would defiantly recommend picking these up before they go.


    As well as starting college soon, I'll also being going on a family honeymoon to a location in Spain for a week. I'm not a regular swimmer, and hardly visit foreign countries any more so buying a new bikini was a requirement. Priced at £12 from £26 this is a bargain you can't miss out on for Topshop clothing.

    This one has a really nice rose gold metal bar in the middle of the top half giving your boobs support (along with the halterneck strings) also making them look quite nice. The patter is very flattering to all body shapes, the soft tones would enhance to appearance of your tan as well.


    This is the last item I bought from Topshop, being roughly 5ft 9 its hard to find a decent dress from any shop that has the proportions to where the waist goes in, the length and the hips due to them being under average proportions. With Topshop providing an excellent 'Tall' section I jumped at the chance to purchase this in the sales.

    Again, being from the 'Tall' section, the prices of all clothing is slightly increased due to more material being used. This dress in particular was originally £38/£40, higher than the average Topshop dress. I was able to snatch this for £20 which is a bargain. Being light but thick material this dress is perfect for all seasons, I would purchase this again in separate colours, if available.

THIS WEEK | Topshop Jubilee Wishlist #3


    Living in the UK, these past four days have been part of the 'Jubilee Weekend'. We first encountered the start for the Olympic Torch passing its way through different cities and towns through out England, including my hometown of Wigan. 

    After this was the Queens Diamond Jubilee celebration ( 60 years on the throne ) a large concert was set up outside Buckingham Palace featuring artists such as Tom Jones, JLS, Robbie Williams and many more. 

    In comparison to dressing in the UK's flag colours ( red, white and blue ) I opted to keep in the latest trend of pastels. These key pieces are something of a simple nature yet all together have a very nice effect, bouncing off each other with their different aspects. 

    The weather has been very hot in England the past two weeks so the light weight material of the dress is able to keep you looking stylish, also preventing any over heating. Along with the sandals and shades to add a pop of colour, and belt to give definition to the waist, this outfit is a must have!
