Wishing.


TOPSHOP dress & top; PRIMARK jacket; ROCK N ROSE necklace.

Another thrown-together outfit! I actually was just trying on my new clothes to see what this top would go with. I was a bit worried because its a funny shape and didn't know what to wear it with, but I think it goes well with the leopard print.
I also wanted to test out the blank wall in my new flat for taking pictures.

I got my Glossybox yesterday, I know everyone is pretty divided on them but I do still think they're a great idea. I'm a bit annoyed they upped the postage, as I signed up for a flat fee of £10. It seems the people that are being negative about them don't actually have one so therefore, don't really have an opinion!
I'm all for them, I spend hundreds a month on trying new products so this is made for me but I understand it's not for everyone. And I also understand that they can't send full size products every month so I wasn't disappointed by the June box.
I'm interested to see what Boudoir Prive will be offering up, they started following me on twitter a few months ago and I've been waiting excitedly ever since!

Had a rubbish few days, but I've got two days off so looking forward to relaxing and doing nothing! Stocked up on chocolate biscuits, magazines and my new favourite series Game of Thrones!
I'm currently using my phone as a "wifi hotspot" on my macbook to get this blog post up, and it's taking forever. I don't get the internet until the 1st but I'm going to get a few blog posts scheduled tomorrow because I can't go without blogging for much longer!

  1. The jacket, the top and the skirt, unusual combination but it looks SO right. The top is gorgeous. Wanted to get my hands on it but unfortunately they didn't have any left in my size. :( xo

  2. Love all the different elements of this outfit. You've paired them together so well and I'm not usually a fan of leopard print but you've not made it look over the top which is great. I was in two minds on the glossy box but I just keep thinking I'll be £100 a year less and with driving lessons it's not a good thought but they are a fantastic deal, especially for people like yourself who spend a lot more on products and want to test out the lastest stuff!

  6. It's so funny how literally everyone in the blogging community is discussing these Glossyboxes, I'm just glad I didn't sign up because everyone went mad about the NARS offer last month which clearly set the boundaries so high for those who didnt think about the fact these boxes are just a way to trial new products - popular or not, discovered or undiscovered. As you say, it works for some!
    Your legs look so super skinny here, going to come out with the 'have you lost weight?' because you look like you have!
    Hope you're settling in okay, will be pleased to see you posting more once you have net access!

  9. I love this outfit - you look lovely! I'm very intrigued by the Glossybox thing, I can't justify the price right now, plus I have quite sensitive skin, so would be worried about trying lots of products, but generally, they sound like a great idea. Plus, with bloggers reviewing the products it gives me a good idea of what might work for me :) x

  18. I know, I'm also not impressed at the price going up :( £10 is a nice round number! Enjoy your days off girlie. You did well in the topshop sale on your last post. I have missed it entirely, probs for the best! :( xx
