I'd had my eyes on a beautiful studded clutch bag from Toppyshoppy for ages, and when pay day came around I finally allowed myself to buy it, only to find it out of stock - online and in the shops. So when I saw Steph from MoreeMilk's blogpost on the bargain studded clutch from Select I knew I had to get it - and it has cured my heartbreak over the Topshop one, and for a fraction of the price.
The studded heels were an impulse buy and they're one of those 'love it or hate it' items - personally, I love nothing more than a bit of tack so I snapped them up. They're so comfy - really soft and squishy and the heel isn't so high that I can't wear them in the day. I might actually have to grab myself a back up pair...
I'm undecided about the striped jeans. I'm not sure if they're really 'me' yet - I'm very
much a tights/black skinnies & heels kind of girl and these are
fairly casual for me! But I saw a girl at Uni wearing some similar and
they looked amazing - for £12, I'll give them a whirl.. The bodycon dress is a bit of a 'statement' item, but i'll be wearing this for a few birthday drinks next month (I turn 22..eek) It will look so nice with a black blazer and killer heels..
Finally, FINALLY I got my mitts on some of the Lush goodies from their new 'Emotional Brilliance' range - I'm a massive Lush fan, and I spent a good half an hour having a natter about makeup and suchlike with the lovely staff - I originally went in just for the Liquid Lips, but the young man who served me unknowingly talked me into the Charisma Skin Tint too - his general happiness and enthusiasm on life tempted me into buying it - cracking sales technique, young fellow...
Have you tried anything from the new Lush range yet?
& Is anyone else loving stripes right now?! It's a bit of an obsession for me..

LOVE the heels and the dress. I love black and white stripes on any item of clothing! I really like the packaging of the Lush make up, very kitsch x
ReplyDeleteI was unsure of the dress but it looks so much nicer on :) Yess I love the Lush packaging - i shall be reviewing them very soon :) xx
DeleteI'm so jealous of your bag and shoes, and the striped top is amazing!
ReplyDeleteI checked out the lush colour wheel yesterday and was really impressed, but I couldn't help but feel that £15 was a bit steep for them!

Im so impresseed with all of the colours available! But I too felt £14.50 was pushing it... I do think theyve been priced a little bit too high but i shall give them a go nonetheless :) xx
DeleteAaaah you got some lovely things, that striped dress is absolutely gorgeous! I would love to know what you think of the Lush lip product, it seems really interesting! x
ReplyDeleteIm planning on doing a review on them soon :) So far im loving it xx
DeleteI love the studded bag! I just did a comparison post on bigger versions, but I like this smaller one too!
