Marc Jacobs Daisy Eau So Fresh Sunshine

I have recently managed to get my hands on another bottle of Marc Jacobs Daisy Eau So Fresh Sunshine from allbeauty.com. It is really hard to find elsewhere and I decided to buy a second bottle as I've been reluctant to wear it because I've been so concerned about using it all up and having none left.

I absolutely love this fragrance.
The top notes are strawberry, apple blossom and pink grapefruit.
The heart notes are jasmine, rose and violet leaf.
The base notes are oak moss and amber wood.

It is sweet, fruity and uplifting.

I also love the other two from the Sunshine range, Daisy Sunshine and Oh, Lola! Sunsheer. I already have two bottles of Oh, Lola! Sunsheer as I found a bottle for half price in Debenhams at the beginning of the year so now I'm on the look out for my second bottle of Daisy Sunshine so I can use all three guilt free.

I also love Daisy Delight and Daisy Eau So Fresh Delight, which were released earlier this year, but I think the Sunshine editions are a cut above.

August clothing/shoes/perfume haul!

With my holidays still to come I haven't been able to resist a bit of shopping.

I've just bought this lovely jacket from New Look. It looks even nicer in real life and it certainly brightens up an outfit.

I also bought these shorts from Primark, but don't worry I won't be wearing them with the above (or below) jacket! They're a bit outrageous for me, but I'll probably only ever wear them on holiday!
The photo is from Primark's Twitter page.

I also bought one of these gorgeous bags in powder blue. From the two different styles in the photo I much prefer the one with the double buckle fastening on the front, but they didn't do it in powder blue.

They did do it in this gorgeous spotty print though and I was tempted to buy both bags, but sadly left this one on the shelf. I'll definitely buy it if I get the chance to go back any time soon as it's adorable.

I also ordered these wedges this week. I haven't bought a pair of wedges for ages. These are on modatoi.co.uk.

I was also really pleased to find DKNY Sweet Delicious Tart Key Lime perfume from allbeauty.com. I have mentioned this before in previous posts. I was going to get it last year, but it was out of stock everywhere.
I'm so pleased I've managed to find it.

Irregular Choice Cherry Dear and Angel Cakes!

On 8th August 2014 Irregular Choice came out with these new heels.

There have been bunnies, gnomes, cats and unicorns in the past and now deer.
The deer print shoes are called Cherry Dear (£120.00) and the paw print shoes are called Angel Cakes (£125.00).

The cherry on the front of Cherry Dear helps to explain the name. I definitely prefer these ones to Angel Cakes. I'm not sure whether I prefer the black or blue though.
I like the red bow on the front of the leaves. I think the colours give these shoes a wintery, Christmasy feel.
I'm not too bothered. All these different heel designs are a bit silly, but I would quite like a pair of these.

I like the print on Angel Cakes, but from the front these shoes aren't very nice. I don't like the large paw print on the front. I think it ruins the look making the shoes look ugly.

I like the deer idea! I wonder what Irregular Choice will bring out next.

Huge Dresslink Haul!

My last post was about my discovery of the website sammydress.com where you can buy lovely clothes for very low prices.
I started looking at reviews of their website on youtube and I stumbled across another similar website which is dresslink.com and it's even better.
I noticed a few of the same items I have ordered from sammydress.com are available on dresslink for even cheaper prices and I ended up placing a huge order.
I mentioned in a recent post that I'd bought a lovely peach (or 'pink') maxi dress that I found for around £15 on ebay from China and I was tempted to buy two more in green and purple. I was really pleased to find the dresses on dresslink.com for just £5.77 each!

As I already have one of the dresses I know that they are good quality and look lovely on.

I also got this maxi dress in red. It is such a nice design. I wish I'd bought the black one as well. This one cost £4.52.

I also bought another maxi dress in blue. It was even cheaper than the others at just £4.24. It looks a lot more expensive.

Another dress I bought is this lace dress with 3/4 sleeves. It was only £3.68 and was available in a few different colours. It makes me think of asos.com as I have two similar dresses from asos.

I also got this green floral dress for £7.03. The prices are a bit random.

Another thing I decided to buy was this black poncho/coat. It looks really cosy for the autumn/winter. It was only £5.49!

I also went a bit mad and bought 10 different white tops. I won't bore you with all of them, but here are some of the highlights..

The below was £2.78.

The below was £2.07.

The below is my favourite white top that I bought and was £3.27.

The below was £4.82.

 I'm really looking forward to it all arriving. Nothing makes me happier than bargain clothes!

More July Shopping!

I mentioned in my previous post that I notice a lot of adverts on facebook for random clothing websites that I've never heard off.

Today I discovered www.sammydress.com and bought a few things for my holidays.

I love this white dress and it was only £5.89! Stylish and comfortable!

This green dress is lovely too and had to be ordered as it was just £5.69.

I also found these beautiful shorts. I absolutely love them and they were only £5.08!

I also bought this lovely forest green dress, which is more of an autumn/winter item and cost a whole £7.50.

The website seems reasonably good. There is plenty of variety, which is great for me as I love to flick through pages and pages of items rather than clicking on skirts to find that they only have about six skirts for sale!
The postage is calculated by the weight of items so the more you buy the more you pay, which is annoying because it makes it difficult to add up how much you are spending until you reach the checkout by which point you have set your heart on everything in your basket.
Also the sizing sounds a bit of a gamble. There's no size 8,10,12.. It is all small, medium and large and using their size charts. Some tops I looked at just say 'one size', which is obviously not going to fit everyone.
The sizing is Asian so you may have to go larger, but as a size 10 I don't enjoy putting 2XL items in my basket.
I'll have to wait and see if anything fits when it arrives.

Recent purchases

I have bought a few things recently. I bought the red skirt I mentioned in my post earlier this month from Oasis where it was further reduced to just £8.00 and I bought the jelly sandals from New Look today in black for just £7.00.

The skirt is gorgeous. I wore it a few days ago with a cute white top. It feels good quality and is heavy enough not to fly up in the wind.

I wore the sandals today and they didn't rub at all. They're really good.

I also got a new dress about a week ago. I have found lots of foreign clothing websites, which advertise on facebook recently and I found this dress on one of them. I think it was about £30.00, but I found the same dress on ebay from an international seller for around £15.00.

The dress was also available in a pastel purple colour and a pastel green colour and I was tempted to buy the other two as well as I was really unsure which colour I wanted. I love them all.

Irregular Choice Wedding Shoes

I shouldn't be allowed to visit websites where you can shop online!
Tonight I had a quick look on letsbuyshoes.com and I did just that; I bought shoes.
I'd been looking at Irregular Choice Lemon Pips for a while as I was considering them as possibilities for my wedding day shoes. They are around £79.99 elsewhere, but I got them for just £39.50 plus postage. They have been on their website for a while, but when I checked tonight they finally had them in my size so I was thrilled and ordered them without a further thought.

Studying the first photo and looking at the heel the shoes look lower than they actually are. I am torn between three different pairs now for my wedding day.
These ones are called Lemon Pips, but I also have a pair called No Place Like Home and a pair called Can't Touch This both also from Irregular Choice, which are competitors.

No Place Like Home

I love these No Place Like Home shoes. They are covered in white sequins and are very pretty. I also now have them in red, which are a lot more glitzy and gorgeous, but these white ones seem more wedding appropriate.

Can't Touch This

I love these shoes, but my pair have little black marks on the front, which puts me off wearing them for my wedding. I have them in at least 7 different colours because I'm obsessive, but this is the only colour I really fancy as a wedding day contender.
I wore a pair of Can't Touch This yesterday for a friend's wedding and two people I didn't know stopped me to say they loved them, both recognising them as Irregular Choice. I also found that they were comfortable enough to wear all day. There were periods where I was seated, but a lot of the day I was on my feet and they were comfortable, but admittedly did start to ache the balls of my feet towards the end of the day, but I find this with most heels. I was impressed with how comfortable these were.

These are the shoes I wore:
