Hey everyone! So I've been browsing the net recently for gift ideas for Christmas and of course I've spotted numerous things I quite fancy for myself! So I've put them all together in a little wishlist post!

1- Meow PJ's- Forever 21 £12.95. I have a pair similar to these which I got in Forever 21 in New York. They are the comfiest PJ's I own so I'd love another pair!

2- Cat Nap PJ's- ASDA £10. Can you tell that cat PJ's are my favourites yet. I have so many already but you can never have too many sets right? 

3- Tartan Leggings- New Look £17.99. Being from Scotland, loving tartan clothing is a given. I don't actually own any tartan leggings so these would be a welcome addition to my wardrobe.

4- Ugg Slippers- Currently £56 in John Lewis. John Lewis are doing a price match at the moment on hundreds of items and these are included! I've had my eye on these for absolute months so hopefully I'll find them under my tree this year! 

1- Hot Toddy Shower Gel- Lush £17.95 for 500g. Of course the smaller bottles are cheaper, but as this is a limited edition showed gel, you need to stock up for the year ahead! 

2- Snow Fairy Shower Gel- Lush £13.95 for 500g. I swear the price has gone up on this this year? I can't remember how much I paid last year for my big bottle but I didn't think it was almost £14? Anyway this is my all time favourite scent so I need to get some to stock up on it! I've currently got none left so this one is a must have! 

3- Morphy Richards Soup Maker- Very.co.uk £49. If you've been reading my blog lately you'll see I've been on a bit of a health kick. However, I'm not a huge fan of vegetables. If they are in a soup though I will eat anything! So this little machine will hopefully make me eat a bit more veg! Also it makes soup in just 21 minutes! Perfect for popping on whilst getting ready for work in the morning! 

4- I heart Cats t-shirt- crazycatladyclothing.com $26.99. I don't even know how I came across this website but I just love this t-shirt! It is just so me! I need to have this. 

So there you have it, my little christmas wishlist! I'm sure there will be many more things I come across in the coming weeks so expect some more posts along these lines from me! 

I'd love to see what's on your wish lists too! Leave me a link in the comments box below!

Dress- Next £9 (sale)

Cardigan- Forever 21 £7

Leggings- Primark £3 

Shoes- Primark £6

Hello everyone! I'm back after a short break with a new outfit post! I've been so busy over the last few days as it was my birthday! I'm now the grand old age of 22! I went for a little girls day out on Monday and I picked up this pink bird print dress in the next sale! They only had size 10 or 22 left, but I just had to have it so I went for the 10 and prayed it would fit. I have to say I'm presently surprised with the fit! I paired it with my pink cardigan and shoes and some black leggings for work today and lots of people have commented on how nice it is! 

Have you bought anything nice in the next sale?

Dress- £15 Primark

Hello everyone! Today I thought id show you a few of my favourite outfits from my holidays! I'm a big fan of maxi dresses and skirts, as you can probably tell. A few years ago you would never catch me in a maxi dress but I just love them now. They are so effortless! I'll definately be re-wearing these outfits when I go back to Portugal in September! :) 

Have a great weekend everyone! 

Huge Spring/Summer Haul

Hey, hope you've all had a lovely Easter weekend!
Today I've got a massive spring/summer haul for you all! As you may have heard me mention, I'm off on holiday very soon (26 days to be precise!), so I've been shopping like mad for new summer clothes!
On Friday, I went through to Glasgow with my mum for a little bank holiday day trip! This is what I picked up!

Turquoise Aztec Maxi Dress- £12.95 from Forever 21
Printed Maxi Skirt- £1 from Primark
Plain Orange Maxi Skirt- £5 from Primark

I fell in love with this maxi dress and I just had to have it! It's just something about the colour! Also you read correctly, the patterned maxi skirt was only £1! It's in pastel colours and looks really cute with a plain vest tucked into it! I'm on the hunt for a top match the orange skirt. I've seen one I love in Primark but they don't have it in my size just now! :(

Sandals- £10 from Primark

I've been looking for some wedges for ageeees! I found these bargains on friday! They are soooo comfy! The platform from makes them feel like wearing flats without compromising on the added height (which I really need!)

Baseball top- £14.99 from New Look

Jeggings- £19.99 from New Look

I had some vouchers for New Look so I grabbed these lovely items! I've really embraced the baseball top look and I have to say, I love it! This one is really summer with the palm tree print and it's a really flattering fit! 

I love the acid wash jeans look but I'm not sure it would look good on me. These jeggings are slightly acid wash which I love! They only had my size in these so it was obviously meant to be! 

Ralph Lauren Flip Flops- £14.99 from TK Maxx

I love these! They are actually kids flip flops (benefits of having tiny feet)! 

Wedge Flip Flops- £6 from Sainsbury's

I think I've bought too many flip flops but I had to get these! My mum had a similar pair last year and they were great! As you can see I've already had them on! They go great with almost everything! 

White Skinny Jeans- £16 from Sainsbury's

Bird Print Scarf- £6 from Sainsbury's

I've seen so many people wearing white skinny's this spring but I've never found a pair I liked until now! These are the perfect fit! They make my legs look nice and slim (which they definitely aren't). Also they make them in short, regular and long leg length! Good job Sainsbo's! 

And how cute is this bird print scarf! I'm loving anything bird print just now, even though it totally conflicts with my cat print obsession! 

If you like any of my Sainsbury's purchases, if you hurry to your local store today, they've got 25% off all clothing, shoes and accessories! (ends today)

Pink Polka Dot Bikini- £12 from Asda

Coral Stripy Bikini- £12 from Primark

Plain Black Bikini- £5.50 from Asda

Leopard Print Bikini- £15 from ASOS

Okay, so I have the worst time ever trying to find bikinis to fit because I'm bigger than a DD bust! I usually have to buy size 20 tops and size 12 bottoms! Thankfully, shops are starting to provide for us busty girls! Of course there are shops like bravissimo who have been selling bikinis in bra sizes for years, but at 40 odd pounds a bikini, I realistically can't afford them! 

I'm also loving the fact that high waisted bikini bottoms are in fashion this year! I dread getting my flabby tummy out on the beach, but these work kind of like control pants! It's great! 

If you are like me and you struggle to find bikinis in sizes that fit, I recommend the following shops:

1. Asda

2. Primark (limited range of bigger bust bikini's)

3. ASOS (go up a back size though, if your a 34 inch back, you will need a 36)

4. New Look (Kelly brook range does limited range in bigger sizes)

Leopard Print Maxi Skirt- £5 from Boohoo.com

Leopard Print Jumpsuit- £4.95 from Chiara Fashion

I didn't get these on my shopping spree on Friday, but they were such bargains, they are worth showing! I'm not usually a jumpsuit person but this one is really cute and at only £4.95 I couldn't say no! 

If you've made it to the end of this blog post, then you deserve a gold medal! Hope you've enjoyed seeing my entire suitcase worth of holiday clothes! Are you going anywhere nice on holiday this year? I'd love to see your latest purchases, leave me a link to your blog in the comments box! :)

Forever 21, Primark and Lush Haul

Hey guys! The other half and I finally had a day off together today so we took a little trip through to Glasgow for some shopping! I wasn't planning on spending much money but that plan didn't last long at all!

Forever 21
We don't have a forever 21 in Edinburgh so whenever I'm in Glasgow I always spend a fortune in here!

Top £7.95

I'd seen this cute cat print top online a few days ago and I was desperate to have it so I was delighted the Glasgow store had it in my size! If you read my blog regularly you will know I love anything cat related so I obviously am in love with this! 

Leggings- £4

These cute spot leggings were only £4! I don't have spotty leggings already and I'm really loving the black and white monochrome trend right now so I'm sure I will get plenty wear out of these! 

Boots £14.99, Cardigan £13.99 (On BOGOF promotion)

Can we all just take a moment to appreciate how amazing this deal is?! I've been looking for a pair of black, heeled cowgirl boots for ageeees! I couldn't believe it when I spotted these! They are perfect! They only had one pair left which was my size and they even fit over my chunky calves! So happy! 

And I'm sure I'll use the cardigan lots too especially with it being black and white haha! 

Cardigan £7

I was very impressed with the price of Forever 21's basic cardigans. They feel like great quality and are so soft! I picked up this baby pink one as I'm really loving the colour just now! 

Primark

Dress £10

Only one purchase from Primark today (shocker I know!) This cute tartan dress is the same fit as the red and blue one I bought in december! I've worn that one loads so I know this one will look great too! 

Lush

Golden Egg £3

Spacegirl £2.25

Fluffy Egg £2.95

The Brightside £4.50

Of course, the day wouldn't be complete without a little trip to lush! They have all their easter stock in now which led to me getting very excited in the shop! I spent ages chatting away to the sales girl, which led to the other half getting bored and waiting outside for me! Anyway I settled on these four products. I can't wait to try these out! I'm going for a bath straight after I've finished this post just so I can use one of these! If you get a chance, definitely go check out Lush's new stock!

So that was my rather large haul from today! Hope you enjoyed reading this. Don't forget I've got a little giveaway going on right now where you could win 5 yankee candle votives! You can enter that HERE! :) xx

Concrete jungle where dreams are made...

Okay, so for the last 18 months I have been saving like mad for my very special holiday to New York! As some of you may know, I turned 21 in 2013 and I always said I wanted to go for my birthday. Circumstances meant I didn't quite get away in Summer but on 2nd January 2014 I set off on my travels with my lovely man! 

The trip started with disaster of course! I woke up at 5am, all excited, only to find out our flight had been cancelled due to a snow storm in New York! Cue lots of screaming, crying and moaning about how unfair it is! Of course I refused to take no for an answer. I headed to the airport anyway and managed to get booked on a later flight with no hassle at all! (Thanks, British Airways!) 

[caption id="" align="alignnone" width="650"] My favourite photo from our trip! Central Park in the snow![/caption]

Anyway, the main point of this post is the shopping! OMG the shops are just sooooo good! Of course I was there during the January sales so everything was sooo cheap! 

1. NYPD Hoodie: I just had to have this. I love a baggy hoodie for lounging about in.
2. I love NY t-shirt: No trip to NY would be complete without one of these obviously! 
3. Cat print leggings (Forever 21): These are actually PJ's but they are far too pretty to wear to bed so I use them as leggings! 
4. PJ Set (Forever 21): I also wear the Meow top as a normal top just with a plain cami under it as its a bit see through! 
5. Sparkle leggings (American Eagle): I love sparkles and these were so unusual. I've not seen anything like them in the UK!

 

1. Both Checked Shirts (American Eagle): I couldn't decide between the 2 colours and they were in the sale so I just got both! 
2. Burgundy cable knit jumper (American Eagle)
3. Popcorn knit cream jumper (Aeropostale): This will look so cute in spring with skinny jeans! 
4. Beige Cable Knit Jumper (American Eagle)
5. Pink Juicy Jumper (Juicy Couture): Only $25 in the sale! I've had this on loads and it looks really good! I love baby pink at the moment! 

 

I really needed some new tops for uni so the above is a selection of what I picked up! The white cat one is my favourite! A bargain at $10 from Forever 21! 

 

More hoodies! They are just so cheap in America and I wear them all the time at uni! 

So there we go, a selection of the items I picked up in New York! 

Hope you enjoyed this post! I certainly enjoyed the shopping for it! 

Forever 21 Haul

Today I went through to the lovely city of Glasgow. I went with intentions of getting a MacBook but for many reasons I've yet to purchase one. I did however make a stop in forever 21. We don't have a forever 21 in Edinburgh so it's a big deal for me to get to go there! Obviously as a big fan of New York, I love the shop!
When approaching the store I immediately noticed the sign in the window saying "extra 50% off sale items" which excited me greatly!
Anyway here is some photos of the cute items I picked up!





Dress £12
Leggings £8.75





I am in love with these leggings! Cat print seems to be very popular just now!





Stripe top £3.50
Grey tunic £4.99

If you are lucky enough to live near a forever21, get yourself down there. Their sale is well worth a look!
