Random Wishlist!

Sunday, September 02, 2012


Where has today gone? Oh days go so quickly and with winter on it's way, the daylight fades fast. So sorry for a bit of a boring post, but I ran out of time and light to post anything else. I promise an outfit post or a beauty review tomorrow. I'll also be holding my Witch BB Cream giveaway this week to so keep an eye out for that. Anyway here is my rather eclectic wishlist!

1. After seeing @meganisobel on Instagram label her kilner jars in her kitchen I feel like my life will not be complete without a label maker. I am currently de-cluttering and organising my room so this will come in handy. I think I'm just going to purchase one. This one is from the W.H Smith website and is only £8 something. I don't think that's too bad!

2. My lust for peter pan collars. I got paid on Friday and I'm sorting out my wardrobe that can only mean one thing filling it back up again. This pretty little dress in on ebay for around £9. So cute and great price. I might have to invest.

3. You can tell from my recent blog posts that interior design and decor is something I adore at the minute and when I went to Paralympics we popped into Westfield afterwards and I found myself lusting over some beautiful cushions in the Next homeware department. Although I love this I can make it myself which will be a lot cheaper than £14. I might do a DIY blog post about it if your interested?

4. Now this is the most beautiful jacket in the world! After seeing Jazmine from Jazabelle's diary wearing hers and swooning over the ones in the Liberty store in Westfield I've decided I desperately need one. They are made by Barbour and cost a small investment. Totally worth it but something I'm going to have to save for, or someone can buy me (hint,hint). I think my penny jar will be labelled (with the new label maker) Barbour jacket fund! Buy me one for over £200!

5. American Apparel glitter polish. How amazing is this? I have a pink glitter on my nails at the minute and I think I need to have more glitter polishes in my life. I'll need more storage for them but I NEED more glitter polishes. This one is £9 and is totally beautiful!

6. And finally. Rachel Khoo's book. I loved her Little Paris Kitchen series and I need this book in my life. My mum will probably end up getting me this for Christmas (I love getting books for Christmas) so I'll have to wait till then!

So that's my rather random wishlist and if you want to buy me anything, please go ahead!

Wish/Shopping List!

Monday, July 30, 2012


I asked if you guys wanted to see me shopping list/wishlist and few of you said you did! So here it is!

1. 2 Pack of Leggings - New Look £12.99 I am in desperate need of some new leggings and these are thick and good quality ones and I get my discount to which is a massive bonus! I brought a beautiful polka dot (yes another one!) from George at Asda and need some leggings to wear with that!

2. Check Shirt - New Look £14.99 I saw this when it came in and loved it! I don't know if I'll be buying it yet or not but I do love it. A/W is so much nicer than S/S and I can't wait for winter, cosy nights in and jumpers and anything Burgundy coloured!

3. Born Lippy Lip Balm - Body Shop £2.00 I saw this on the website and I've got a 40% off voucher and I'm going to be picking up a few other bits so this is on my to buy list. I want to try a lip balm with a pop of colour and this seems a reasonable price too!

4. Tea Tree Face Mask - Body Shop £9.00 This is main thing on my list. I saw an Essie Button video where she talked about this and she uses it on her blemishes over night and it gets rid of the spot. I have to try this, I hate blemishes and I have a few at the minute I want to see the back off! Again I have a 40% voucher so I'll be putting that to this too!

5. Spike Bracelet - Dolly Peg? This is a sneaky one. I really love this bracelet and we are thinking about stocking it on dolly peg, let me know what you think of it! I love it!

6. Burgundy Supersoft Skinny Jeans - New Look £19.99 I love this colour and I've put these and another jumper on hold at work. So expect to see those sometime soon!

So that's my shopping/wish list! I'll be reviewing the beauty products and expect some outfit posts too!

Primark AW12 lookbook!

Friday, June 15, 2012



I was sent an email from Look as I subscribe to pretty much every magazines email subscription. So I was pretty excited when I saw the email with Primark's new season pieces. These are just a few of my favourites however there are a lot of lovely pieces. Whether you will be able to find them in your local Primark is another thing. Oh Primark why do you not have online shopping???

1. I have been after a collar necklace for ages and not yet found a reasonably prices one but this lovely necklace is only £4. Not bad in my books!

2. This dress is a bit more pricey for standard primark at £26 it looks as though it good quality made from tweed (cheap tweed but tweed). I really love this. A perfect piece for AW12 I think.

3. Now I love this however it is a play suit and they are notoriously difficult to get out off. And they are not good if your desperate for the toilet. Ha. But it's really cute and I love the mesh at the top. This comes in at £12. Such good value!

4. I love this beautiful bag. Bags are something I'm always on the lookout for. A bright bag can really brighten up and pull together an outfit. This comes in at £12 too. Which is really good value in my eyes. I have a Primark bag at the moment and it's last surprisingly well.

5. This pair of quilted flats are so cute. I need flats for work and these are only £8. They will work with any outfit and the chain just makes them a bit dressier (not that that's a word! or is it?).

6. Finally a pair of heels. I love my heels being 5ft 4 I need heels! And these are really pretty. They are only £18. I've never had a pair of heels from Primark but when they a cheap you don't mind so much. But £18 is a reasonable price.

That's my picks! I also love this shirt. But I just don't think the picture does it justice. I think it would look great on!

Do you love anything?

P.S If you have a moment I'd be ever so grateful if you could nominate littlepaperswans for the newcomer award at the Cosmo Blog Awards! I know I don't stand much of a chance but it only takes a second!

Wishlist!

I am in deseperate need of some new accessories. I haven't updated my jewellery in ages and I am really craving new pieces. So I decided to take a look on ebay and see what I could find. And I was amazed by the value of some of the pieces. All the items I found were under £2.50 and all of them included free postage. Can't argue at that can you?

So here are my finds:

1. Envelope clutch - This comes in at a mere 99p and comes in an array of different colours. You could have one of each and it wouldn't break the bank. I think this are great little bags for a night out.

2. Love ring - I love this love ring (see what I did there?) and rings are something I don't have enough of so on my ebay search I came across this and it's something I want. There are so many rings on ebay for 99p (free postage too) so it's always worth a look if you want to update your accessories.

3. Quilted bag - Now I know these won't be to everyones taste but at 99p again I think it's great for a splach of colour to your outfit. I am really tempted by these bags. Not to sure what colour I would get though?

4. Spike necklace - I love this and somebody I work with had one very similar and I just think it looks really nice. £2.49! Again my necklace situation is bad. I need more necklaces to dress up my work outfits. I am going shopping soon so expect to see a lot of new jewellery!

5. Camera ring - I couldn't say no to this fabulous ring! Perfect for any photography student (hint hint) I really love this and again it would make a great little present for someone! 99p (yet again)

6. Cat/animal ears ring - how cute is this ring? I don't know which colour I like it best in? I have to have this ring! It's too cute!

So all in all if I brought everything on this list I would have spent a mere £7.44. Not bad value at all!

Will you be buying anything?

P.S If you follow me on twitter you will have seen that I have been selected to be a Witch Skincare Flawless Friend along with some other amazing bloggers! So expect to see lots of exciting things coming up with that.

P.P.S If you have a moment I'd be ever so grateful if you could nominate littlepaperswans for the newcomer award at the Cosmo Blog Awards! I know I don't stand much of a chance but it only takes a second!

New look wishlist!

Friday, June 01, 2012






I've just started my job at New Look. I've been there for about a month now and while I'm working I enjoy nothing more than eyeing up clothes that I want to buy. If your follow my blog you will know that I have been sticking it out until my discount card arrives. Well today that joyous day arrived so I decided to compile a wish list of the clothes that I will most likely be getting! Let me know what you think.

All these products can be found on the New Look website. I would link the products individually but this laptop is a bit crazy!
