I’m so sorry to have neglected this blog so badly! A lot has happened since I last posted. I went to India, I got engaged, I started a new job and now I’m planning two weddings! The good news is I have found THE dress. It’s not traditional and I absolutely love it. At only £180 it was an absolute steal. It’s one of Topshop’s limited edition dresses and I happened to get #1 of only 300! I am going to add a belt, a simple gold bracelet from my Mom and some simple gold heels. Who says you can’t be a bridal goddess on a budget?!
Winter Wrap-up
27 FebHere in jolly ol’ England we seem to be reverting back to winter temperatures and snow flurries, despite the fact that spring is getting closer and closer.
A few weeks ago we had beautiful, sunny weather and now it’s absolutely freezing which means it’s time to get out the winter coat and all the accessories… AGAIN!
Bundle up, it’s cold outside!!
Topshop: Epic Fail
25 FebI was so excited about my recent online shopping spree at Topshop and then I got my order and hated everything. What did I order?
The arms were way too tight, the body was way too loose, and the colour block line runs right across the widest part of your body. Not flattering at all. A belt made it even worse. What a disappointment!
Completely see through, frayed edges at the bottom of the dress made it look like it was falling apart and cheap. Next!
Too big for my ring finger, too small for every other finger.
Too baggy on the top, too big on the bottom… sensing a theme here?!
Gorgeous print… again, too tight on the top and too loose on the bottom. Not flattering to pear shapes at all!
Fairisle Band Back Flippy Dress
It went though with my online order, then I got an email saying it was sold out.
I only managed to do one hand with these nail wraps. The package says they last 10 days, but mine are already coming loose and peeling after less than two days. I don’t know how one could possibly shower every day and do household tasks and have these last 10 days. Also, at Boots you can get a different brand of these in a pack of 24 for about 5 quid. These only have 16 nail wraps for 7 quid. For some reason half of them wouldn’t even stick to my nails, which is why I only did one hand. Waste of money!
Everything else is going back tomorrow. Dear Topshop, can you please sort out your sizing?! Thanks.
It’s a Wrap
18 FebI love wrap dresses.
They are so quick and easy to throw on and make a great outfit.
This is an old one I bought about a year ago from the GAP, but I always get compliments when I wear it.
With a cute necklace and some new ankle boots I bought from Clarks (on sale!), I had a perfect outfit for work.
Neck-a-licious
8 FebI have a confession to make. I am an addict. I am addicted to necklaces.
I don’t know about you, but sometimes I just don’t know which one should go with what neckline and it’s all too much to bear (sarcasm!) Lucky for me (and you too!), I found this handy dandy guide to solve all of your necklace and neckline problems. I saved this so long ago I can’t remember where I found it. If you happen to know, please let me know so I can give credit where it is due! In the meantime enjoy and go forth knowing you have chosen the right necklace!
