October 2016 Favourites!

This month I have had two go-to fragrances. I have been using Nina Ricci's Ricci Ricci Dancing Ribbon eau de parfum and Reem Acra's eau de parfum.

Ricci Ricci Dancing Ribbon is slowly overtaking Ricci Ricci as my favourite Nina Ricci fragrance.

Reem Acra's eau de parfum is another lovely scent for the autumn/winter months. Out of the two fragrances I think I have used Reem Acra most often this month.

I have also been loving Soap And Glory's Glam-A-Lot body spray which is another great scent. I think this is quite difficult to get hold of now which is a shame.

My brown New Look boots are back on my favourites list. I still absolutely love them! I love the cutouts and the chunky heel and they are really comfortable.

I adore my silver tourmaline ring which is full of autumnal colours. Sometimes I can't stop staring at it.

I tried Carex's Love Hearts hand wash for the first time this month and I am really impressed. I love unique scents like this and it really does smell like Love Hearts.

My bottle green boohoo skater dress has been my dress of choice this month. I love the colour and the fit!

I have been using Avon's glimmerstick eyeliner in blackest black and I am pretty pleased with it.

Clothing Picks

I feel like the shops are all a bit hit and miss at the minute, but here are a few of my favourite items that I have seen lately..

This blue flutter sleeve dress is available at New Look for just £22.99 which I think is well worth it. I have a few dresses in this colour which I really should dig out for the summer.

 I love this brown handbag which is from boohoo.com. It looks a lot more expensive than the £20.00 price tag.

 I also love these shoes from boohoo.com which are £35.00.

I spotted this floral design dress in Oasis for £75.00.

I have some trousers similar to these ones and I wore them a few times at the beginning of this month. They are really comfy and a stranger told me that they were really nice. These ones are from boohoo.com and they are only £12.00!

This is another cute summery dress which is available from Topshop for £42.00.

5 LBDs

I am loving black at the moment. I'm usually up for a bit of colour, but nothing can beat a black dress for me at the moment. They are just so easy to dress up or dress down.

I spotted this Valentino dress which I love the cut of. Although I'm not the biggest fan of butterflies on everything, I think this dress is nicely done, but at £2000.00 I don't think I'll be making the purchase!

I love this collared, lace dress from Zara (£35.99). I love the lace sleeves.

I also love this dungaree dress from New Look for a very casual look. It is just £22.99.

Another Valentino dress that I really like is this black scalloped hem dress with a lace yoke. It is more affordable than the butterfly dress at £1355.00.

My final little black dress of choice is another black lace dress. This one is £24.99 from H&M. 

My Christmas Shopping - Stocking Fillers!

I have done most of my Christmas shopping already and I have found some cute little stocking fillers to finish off some of the gifts to my family.

I love these socks from New Look and there are so many more designs. I bought a pair each for my friends. They cost £4 for 3 pairs.

 

I've also got a few goodies from Lush. I bought the Peeping Santa bubble bar and the Yog Nog bath bomb.

I also found this Chewits branded bath and shower gel and hand wash. I'm interested to try them out for myself. I think they are a fun idea.

I have also bought an Airwick silhouette colour change candle. I had one myself a few years ago without the silhouette design on the glass holder. The one below is cinnamon roasted chestnuts scented.

Shoe purchases and Irregular Choice's Star Wars Designs!

I bought this pair of nude patent heels by Truffle Collection this week. I love the straight heel on them. I have similar pairs from Shoe Box in light blue and Tesco in lilac which I bought in the summer. 

Yesterday I ordered the over the knee boots I've been loving from New Look. I looked for them in every New Look store I could find, but they only had larger sizes in stock so I ordered them online.

Hopefully I won't see any more shoes that I love this year. I already have far too many pairs. I have to confess that I had a peek on the Irregular Choice website yesterday and they certainly have some interesting new creations especially if you're a Star Wars fan..

The lightsaber heels are called Skywalker. They have flashing lightsaber heels which are activated by gentle impact on the soles (not the heels) and they also have sound effects which are activated with a click button. The batteries can be recharged by micro USB connector. They cost £210.00.

I think the ankle boots with Darth Vader and Stormtrooper on the heels are the coolest. They are called The Death Star and cost £275.00.

The flat shoes are called Darth Vader and cost £110.00.

The Christmas Wish List So Far..!

There are so many lovely things that I have had my eye on lately. Some of them may have to go on my Christmas list.

My favourite item that I am in love with is this lovely pair of over the knee boots from New Look. I don't think I can wait until Christmas for them.

The next thing that I really love is this gorgeous morganite, pink sapphire and diamond ring. I have had my eye on this since about February but still haven't made the purchase. It is from QVC.

There are two perfumes I have been desperately wanting to add to my collection lately. I love Vera Wang by Vera Wang...

And Marc Jacobs Daisy Dream Forever is a lovely scent. I bought the original Daisy Dream, but I came to really dislike it. The new 'Forever' version is a lot less harsh.

I have looked everywhere for a new purse this year and there isn't anything I really love to be honest. I do like this Marc Jacobs purse, but they have sold out in brown on selfridges.com and I'm not as keen on it in black. I might be able to find it somewhere else. 

Another thing I have wanted for a while is a foot spa. The perfect way to end a lazy, chilled out Sunday with a pamper session, a foot spa and good book.

My final choice is some 9ct rose gold stud earrings. I love rose gold and haven't got any plain rose gold studs so it feels like something my jewellery box is lacking. 

Autumn Desires - Clothing and Shoes!

I am loving H&M at the minute. They have loads of lovely knitwear in.

I particularly love this cable knit jumper.

This grey v-neck cardi is really nice as well.

I also love these wool hats from H&M, but don't know which colour I like better or whether I could pull one off.

 

I love these New Look shoes that I spotted on ASOS. ASOS also have some amazing clothes and shoes at the minute.

I found these Miss KG boots on ASOS as well.

I love this ASOS skater coat and it is a gorgeous colour.

I absolutely adore this striped poncho from Zara. I have just ordered it online as I cannot wait to get my hands on it!
