MY FAV ASOS FINDS! ❤


Hi Guys!

We all know that asos.com is one of the best places to do you online clothes shopping and with Black Friday coming up what better time to do it! The only thing is there is so much to choose from you can be on there for hours, so I thought I would make it easier by showing you a few of my favourites that you might like too.

T-shirts


I'm loving slogan tees at the moment, they're such a fun way of expressing your style.

Knitwear



Every girl needs a chunky knit cardigan in their wardrobe for winter, personally I am a fan of grey or dusty pink/purple.

Dresses



I have always been a fan of shift and A-line dresses and the shirt dress trend is one not to be missed, it's one of those styles that looks good on everyone.

Shoes



If you're going to make a statement, what better what to do it than with shoes. Show off your personality with a pop of colour or a soft suede (faux obvs).

Bags



Black bags go with everything, and these two are super cute for everyday use.


That's all for now, remember to look for pieces that can be styled in several different ways to get the most use out of them. Don't forget to take full advantage of the Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals guys!!

Please let me know your favourite ASOS finds in the comments as I would love to see them :)

PRIMARK HAUL!



HEY GUYS!

I am obsessed with Primark's home items at the moment, they are sooo pretty and seasonal. It caught my eye when I was having a browse in town the other day, they had a window display with some candles, fluffy blankets and a cute wolf canvas print. Jack liked the wolf as well so we decided to have a gander upstairs to see how much it was. After going up two lots of escalators we reached the top floor where the home section was and were delighted to find that our friend wolfie was only £2.50! 

So obviously we got that and then began exploring all the other cosy looking treats. As usual I gravitated towards the candles and proceeded to smell each of them systematically. I always struggle whether I should buy them based on scent or if they match my colour scheme, if it has both then it's basically fate. I picked up one that smelt of red berry and jasmine (£1.50) (very nice indeed) and one that was called 'falling star' which apparently smelt like old ladies but it was in this gorgeous jar with a little star charm attached to it (£4)so I got it anyway, there is also a snowflake one which I may pick up at a later date. Not sure what's wrong with me at the moment but sometimes when I mean to type 'I' I type 'A' so I apologize if you notice this at any point, please let me know!

I spent ages looking at these slippers that had memory foam in the sole but when I found the perfect pair (grey mini boots with faux fur around the trim and inside with a cute bow detail) of course they didn't have my size. :( I went back the next day and still nothing but as I work in the shopping centre I guess it's okay as I can keep checking. 

Another item I got was the most comfy, fluffy, elegant looking throw I could find. We needed one for our sofa as it's not in the best condition, we figured why not just dress it up with a smart looking throw and some cushions. Now I am cushion mad, and I had to restrain myself from buying one with an adorable raccoon on it, but if it's still there next payday I'm going for it. I do have a sizable cushion collection already though so don't worry it won't be looking bare.

The last thing I got was some fluffy bed socks, you can never have too many pairs of these. They are great for just going around the house when the evenings get cooler there's nothing worse than having chilly toes! I get most of my bed socks from Primark because they have such a big selection and you can get a two pack for £2 in most of the designs. 

Don't get me wrong I would be all over Laura Ashley Home, M&S and John Lewis if I could actually buy any of their stuff without going broke! But for now I'm good with Primark, they are reasonably priced, have lots of choice and their stuff is decent! Well worth a look, here's some pictures of what I got:







Let me know what you thought of this post or what you would like to see in future posts in the comments and link you own blogs so I can have a look! See you next time :)

Autumn Fashion Finds ♡




Hey guys! :)

Autumn is my favourite month of the year, I just love how everything is so cozy. Warm drinks, woolly jumpers and cardigans, BOOTS, stepping on a crunchy leaf, collecting conkers and curling up on the sofa with a fluffy blanket. That's my idea of heaven. 

One of the best excuses to go shopping is when the seasons are changing, you have to be prepared!! Here are a few things I've spotted on my travels recently:



Faux Suede Zipped Wide Fit Ankle Boots with Insolia from Marks and Spencer £39.50
You've got to have a cute boot for autumn, they look great with jeans, thick tights and a skirt or even leggings. I always like to go for faux suede and leather because its animal friendly and WAY cheaper!

Tan Contrast Faux Fur Trim Blanket Wrap from New Look £24.99 (also available in grey)
Wraps are so on trend this season and this one is faux fur lined so it will keep your neck nice and warm as well as your body. New Look is one of the best shops I know for reasonably priced good quality clothes, and this item is sure to last you at least a few years.



Long Ribbed Twisted Yarn Cardigan from Zara £39.99
This is one for your day off when you want to feel your most comfortable, but still rocking a stylish look. Again it's easy to wear so you don't have to spend hours planning an outfit, just throw it on with a plain jumper or t-shirt and pair with jeans or leggings.

Burgundy Wool Fedora Hat by F&F at Tesco £14.00
For years I thought that I wasn't a hat person but then I tried one like this on and it looked pretty cool. I think it suits long haired people better because it makes a good contrast, but that's just my opinion! It's amazing how by adding just a simple accessory you can make an outfit seem so much more classy and chic.


That's all for now guys, hope you liked this post and it gave you some inspiration for future outfits! I may do a part 2 to this post as I'm always finding new things I love and want you to enjoy them as well. Leave a comment if you like, I would really like some feedback so I can improve my posts.
See you next time!
