My Favourite 3 Perfumes For Each Occasion

Hello everyone! I am super big on perfumes. I love perfumes I love perfume bottles I'm obsessed. Have you ever noticed that our brain associates our memories with smell? I always find that when I smell a perfume I have worn in the past I quickly recall the time I wore it and the memories associated with it.

Here are my personal favourites for each occasion..


1. Date Night - Rihanna Reb'l Fleur

First thing I will say about this perfume is that it is super sexy. It's actually really nice for a celebrity fragrance as they usually all smell the same. I remember when I first wore it the guy I was seeing at the time said he loved the smell of my perfume and he kept smelling me ( weird I know haha) .
It has notes of coconut water , purple musk , amber and Vanilla. Even just reading the notes you know it's delicious. This perfume is very reasonably priced as a 30ml bottle is £19.99 In Superdrug.







2. Work / College/ Uni - Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue

My favourite every day perfume for spring is Dolce & Gabbana light blue. It is really such a classy perfume. I actually got this perfume from my mum, she used to wear this all the time when I was younger and I used to steal sprays off it before I went out because I loved it that much! The word to describe this perfume is fresh and clean. It smells of  lemon, amber and apple. It is in no way overpowering in fact it is actually quite subtle without being ignored. A 30ml bottle of this is £38.50 in the perfume shop, so maybe since it isn't cheap it isn't very wise to use this every day but I just can't help it, I love it!




3. Night out - Ghost
I think this perfume is once of my all time favourites. It's musky , and in my opinion very sexy. I always get compliments with this one and always get asked ''What is that?'' as it isn't the most popular perfumes. Not many people I know have heard of this but this perfume smells really good and I always wear this on a night out. It's a perfect signature scent because it has such a distinctive smell. The notes in this perfume are Jasmine, Apricot, Sandal wood and Vanilla musk. A bottle of this perfume is £24.50 in the perfume shop.








What are your favourite perfumes?

Victoria's Secret Haul!

Hello everyone! So this isn't really a new haul as I've had these things for about two months now but I thought I would post it anyway! :)

The Victoria's
Secret store opened very recently near where I work and I've never stopped going since!
I didn't actually buy any underwear from the shop however I did pick up some lovely body mists that I absolutely love! I got these for a 3 for £20 on offer so I'm not too sure how much they are right now.




First up is 'Coconut Passion' £8, I love the smell of this this is actually my favourite one of the three. It has hints of vanilla and of course coconut but it's different to most coconut body sprays you can buy say for example boots. These sprays don't last very long in smell but that's kind of what I expect from body sprays and the bottles are big enough to keep retouching through the day. :)




Next is 'Mango Temptation' £8, I really love this one I will be using this a lot in the summer for definite. It smells like mangos but not the sickly cheap body spray kinda thing it smells delicious and I always get compliments and asked what I'm wearing when I have this on. :)


Last I have ''Pure Seduction''. This smells really good. It's a little less fruitier than the others, I get compliments with this one too however I don't think it has a very unique smell. That's not to say that I don't love it but it doesn't really wow me as much as the others, but that's just me! :)






xoxoxo

Hope you liked it! Have you tried any of the Victoria's secret beauty line?

My Top 10 Festival Essentials!



Hello all! So summer is coming soon as May is here and it's almost festival season! I'm super excited for summer as I'll be going to the Park Life weekender festival in Manchester and I'm really excited for it! Sooooo anyways  in the spirit of summer here are 10 of my top festival essentials I will for sure be taking with me! 

xoxo



1. Asos Suede Fringe Shoulder Bag - £40.00 - www.asos.com
I love love love this bag! The fringe on the bottom gives it that festival/ summery look and the suede adds an extra ''oooooh'' to it, Love it has to be my number 1! :)

2. Asos Mini Fruit Watch- £15.00- www.asos.com
When I first saw this watch I loved it straight away! It screams ''CUTE'' and although I don't usually like really girly things, I thought for festival season it was a really good pick for only £15! :)

3. Topshop Wrap Jersey Playsuit - £24.99- www.topshop.com
I've been In love with the pastel trend recently and one of my favourite colours at the moment is mint green. I'd love to wear this play suit for a festival as it's all in one and I won't have to worry about ''bits falling out''w while dancing and what not (problems I have with bra tops sometimes ekk!).

4. Brown Rimless Pilot Sunglasses - £7.99 - www.newlook.com
The 'Pilot' style of sunglasses are my favourite style and the price is really good in New look for just £8. :)

5. New Look Light Blue Flamingo Print Iphone 5 Case- £4.99- www.newlook.com
Some people may ask ''But why do you need a new case for a festival?'' well since I will be taking the majority of my photos on my Iphone, Why not make it pretty? This case is definitely for summer and amazing for just £5. :)

6.Sleek I Divine In Del Mar Vol 1-  £7.99 - Superdrug
I love this eye shadow palette. I've been practising different eye-shadow looks and I've have fun experimenting on such a colourful palette and it's affordable too. :)

7. Hunter Original Gloss Boot Pink - £90.00 - Kirt Geiger
Hunter boots are really practical for festivals as there will be a lot of mud and grass and I wouldn't want to wear for example white converse because they would probably get destroyed and I would never see them again and I would be very very sad. :'( *dramatic cry !
These boots are also good for summer as they're bright but simple so easy to pair with the mint green playsuit.

8. LOreal Colour Riche Made For Me Lipstick in ''Intense Crazy''
I already have this lipstick and it's my favourite bright pink lipstick. :) £8.19

9.Victoria's Secret Coconut Passion Fragrance - £12 - Victoria Secret
I have this already and when I first smelled it I thought of summer. It's delicious and sweet and I'll definitely be using this for park life!

10.Topshop Tropical Print Hair Scrunchie - £4.00 www.topshop.com
The name says it all really! I already bought this last week and my intentions were definitely to wear this summer:)

So that's everything hope you found it somewhat interesting haha.

Fashion Save Vs Spend

 It is said "you don't always have to spend a lot of money to look good."
This post is just a few substitutes for high end fashion for those of us that want to spend a little less ! :)

I've been loving the strappy jumspuit trend this year! As much as I love this jumpsuit, I just can't help but look for a more affordable alternative.

Spend Outfit 1-

AQ AQ Sane Jumpsuit with Cami Straps- £115 - Asos.com
Save Outfit 2-

Asos Jumpsuit With Spaghetti Straps £50.00 - asos.com

As you can see the second jumpsuit is incredibly similar to the AQ AQ jumpsuit and also more than half the price! :) 





Now I love love love Michael Kors bags but if you are trying to save money and are looking for a more affordable alternative then you might like my next Save Vs Spend.


Michael Kors White Multifunction Tote Bag £250 -Zee&Co

ALDO Milroy Shopper Bag In Gold - £30 -asos.com

The aldo shopper bag is a similar style and more than a fraction of the price!
