Boohoo Wishlist: Clothes and Accessories


Boohoo is one of those online shops that I can't stop looking at multiple times every week. I think I probably purchase from there than any other shop at the moment! Let's take a look at the items in my wishlist at the moment:


I like the Jane Strappy Front Bodycon Dress because it has the straps that go across the chest to add an extra sexy detail to the dress. I love this trend at the moment! I originally liked the dress in black but after seeing there's a berry version I think it would go amazing with my hair colour.


Another dress I am liking is Amber Lace Panelled Bodycon Dress. I am a sucker for a little black dress and with the lace panel it ticks every box. I don't have a dress that has a lace panel going across on the front so it would make a nice addition to my LBD collection.


Next we have Megan Lace Up Neck + Shoulder Tee. I actually prefer the black version but the photo of the black one doesn't show up the details which make it so appealing to me. This top has gaps on the shoulders and down the middle with material going through eyelets to give a normal top an alternative feel. I love edgier details like this!


Going on to accessories, I found Ava Chain Strap Day Bag the other day after browsing for potential University bags. The chain going across is what does it for me! It looks like it would fit a lot of stuff in as a day bag.


Lastly is Poppy Two Part Wrap Strap Block Heel. I rarely look at shoes on Boohoo but I need low heels for nights out! I have a pair of high heels that I can barely walk in after an hour and give me blisters so I try to avoid them at all costs. I then have big chunky boots with heels but they don't always go with my dresses. So instead of borrowing my Mum's low heels all the time I need to get my own! The heel on this looks reasonable for me and I love how the straps cross against the ankles which I imagine would give more support when walking in them. 


What are you lusting after from Boohoo?

My Choker Collection

Hey!

I am not sure I can quite call it a 'collection' but I have 3 chokers in my possession I thought I'd share with you. I did have a fourth one which was velvet with a pentagram attached from Regal Rose but it broke!

I really like chokers. They can give an alternative edge to any outfit and I love how they look on me.  

My first choker is from the online horror jewellery website Horror Stop. It is an American Horror Story inspired choker, reading 'Bitchcraft' which is a name of an episode in season 2 'Coven' of AHS. It also has a small pentagram on it. Can you tell I'm a AHS? I found it really difficult to take a photo that showed the letters clearly as they're in really light colours but this is the best one I could take.


My next choker was a gift from my friend so I am not sure where it is from. It is on a black velvet band with multiple triangles making up one big triangle interwoven. 


My last choker is another choker that's on a black velvet band. I got it from an Etsy store called Twirly Trinkets. It has a beautiful key on it with a chain looping either side of it. This is what I consider kind of 'gothic' but I love it!



So there we have it! Do you have any chokers?

MAC, New Look & Yankee Candle Haul


Hey!

As mentioned in my book haul (click here), I went shopping last Monday and these are the rest of the things that I got.

Firstly I went to MAC Cosmetics in Debenhams and got myself 'Lady Danger' lipstick with a gift card from a friend. It is an orange/red in your face lipstick that isn't exactly for the faint hearted. I of course will review this soon!


I then went to Yankee Candle. I don't buy candles for myself but because I knew it was my step-sister's birthday coming up and that I know she likes candles I bought 'Mango Peach Salsa' and 'Turquoise Sky'. I loved them for their smells and vibrant colours I thought would go well with the Spring/Summer seasons.


Finally, I went to New Look. I needed new sunglasses as a couple of months ago I managed to spill acetone over my sunglasses and ruined them! I was so gutted because I loved them. However, I managed to find a matching pair in New Look even though mine were from last summer! They have round lenses with a thicker black rim which I know isn't to everyone's tastes but I love them. It is also my sister's birthday coming up so I bought her a small baby pink bag with a lace pattern and a gold clasp and chain. It isn't something I would ever buy for myself admittedly but the material is lovely feeling and it is a pretty girly bag which I know my sister would like for special occasions and nights out. I also spotted a flower bracelet which, again, I wouldn't buy for myself but thought it was beautiful and something my sister would like.




 What do you think? Let me know!
