Boutique of Molly | Review, Wishlist and Promotion

I recently came across Boutique of Molly on Twitter and loved their clothes, so when they approached me asking if I'd like to work with them I was honoured and jumped at the chance regardless of all the hectic things going on in my life right now. First off I'd like to thank the team there for being so cooperative with me taking a while to writing this post, because of money coming through being late and other things I had no control over. One thing I love about their company is that they're always working so hard and it really pays off, they currently have some beautiful items in store, some things even came available after I made and received my order so I made a little wish list for next month, also they must have posted the same day I ordered because I got standard delivery and relieved my little pink package so quickly, I was so happy to come home from a full day of college and open it.

My Wish-list:

I love all these pieces they're all so summery and pretty and I think it's the perfect combination of sophisticated meets playful. (From L to R) 'Tatiana' Aztec Print Skater Dress £29.95, 'Ariel' Flower Frill Top £24.95, 'Eliza' Heavy Bandage Crop Top £21.95, 'Elsa' Cut Out Crop Top £19.95, 'Lila' Mesh Panel Skater Dress £31.95, 'Lola' Mesh Panel Skater Dress £31.95, 'Delilah' Mesh Panel Skater Dress £29.95.

I would really recommend checking them out, the pieces I have are such good quality and I can pretty much wear them all year round, the boutique ships worldwide, based in England, they have such amazing customer service so if you have any questions or queries, don't hesitate they are lovely! Also they're getting more and more stock of late and I can really see how popular they are, they stock sizes 6 through to 14, but hurry because some items I wanted have come and gone!

Payday Dreaming | Boohoo

Recently I have discovered that Boohoo may be my favourite place to buy from and since I'm not really buying anything huge this month I put together this wish list for payday aka THE best day.

At the moment they have such good shoes on their website, think public desire-esque, I have a similar pair to the nude cross strap platforms in red and love the nude shade too, same goes for the black. I also don't own a pair of skinny sandal heels so these just look like a good option. The grid ones, I think are sold out but I'll mention them because they're so pretty but the deep v shoe boots are my favourite, they're so on season and I can't wait to buy them they'll be my first buy this coming payday if they're still available (please). BUT what I will say is that I'm actually quite annoyed, all these shoes were £12 when I found them but they're now all £25 or £30 and / or sold out in all 5's and 4's.

I'm also in love with bralets at the moment too, well the ones on boohoo anyway. I can't begin to tell you how many black boohoo crops I have. So I've added an orange one, a purple one and a white one to mix things up. I think the orange one will look fab with black high rise cropped ankle jeans and tan gladiators.

Also lusting over the cream scallop hem shorts however, I have a pear shaped body so shorts aren't my best friend, same goes for the polka dot playsuit, I'm a sucker for the black on white dots or even vice versa but I just can't pull it off.

There's two dresses on my dream list two, the blue split middle dress, it looks so classy and really nice for a wedding maybe or a special occasion event, and the light blue is such a pretty and summery colour and would really enhance a natural tan. The other dress is a pinafore dress and since I got to a sixthform college with a dress code, this would looke really nice over shirts buttoned all the way up or maybe even a Bardot top to make a cold shoulder style. 

That just leaves 3 items left, the georgeous duster in the top right corner, and two stubby chic tees. The duster is £20 and so pretty and I want it almost as much as the V shoes. The first is the grey backless vest, just really easy to wear, you can pretty much throw it on jeans or leggings, the second is a 3/4 sleeve top with pom-poms around the bottom, I just thought it was cute to be honest. 

What items are you loving?

HUGE SPRING/SUMMER HAUL ~ New Look, Amazon, Boohoo, Disney and More!

Okay so recently I've gone on a bit of a mad one, and thought I'd share all the stuff I bought, I blame exams for all the stress buys. BUT I would like to really stress this is a collective haul since the middle of February, that's 4 months worth, some is for college, some is because I had a mental break down and some is because I have no Summer clothes.

  First I'll go with all the none clothes related things, my first and worst / favourite purchase is the little crocodile in the top image, he was £12 from the Disney store and I bought him because of how much I love the Disney Faries, they're my fave. I also bought a bag £2.50  the new Tinkerbell Movie £10 and a Tinkerbell drinks bottle £5.

  

I also bought 6 EOS Balms because they are cheaper on Amazon and I love them, along with The Last 

5 Years £7, Wonderlust £3.95, Rebecca by Daphne Du Maurier, Elizabeth is Missing by Emma Healy, Bloody Chamber by Angela Carter, The Handmades Tale by Margaret Atwood, The Girl On The Train by Paula Hawkins.

So I may have bought a lot of clothes so much so I couldn't take a nice picture, see?? 

The first place I shopped at and mainly shopped at is new look, the first thing I got was a pair of trainers like the ones below except in blue, even though I kind of wish I got them in pink but now they're all sold out in both colours, I got them for £19.99 but then they were put into sale for £11, I also picked up this cute white a line skirt, I really like the fabric it feels really good quality, but if you have a larger hip to waist ratio buy the size up because it has a tight underskirt, £14.99. Next I got a coral lace sports bra, I have the same one in yellow it's the comfiest thing and coral is my favourite colour so I had to have it, especially for £9.99, the watermelon clutch is kind of an impulse buy, but it's so quirky and I love it, £12.99. I also got an over sized shirt, so easy to wear £17.99, these beautiful mint green courts £19.99, a floral playsuit which I actually bought 3 sizes too big to compensate for my bum but it has a tie waist so it's fine. The next thing I picked up without thinking about it, it was £5 in the sale and it is so flattering. I also got a sleeveless black coat for £19.99 and a checked grid shirt dress for £19.99 which I think is also in the sale. 

The next place I shopped at was Boohoo, I first got a smock jersey dress like the one below except I got it in deep purple but I couldn't find the image of that one and that was I think £12, it's so easy to just throw on and wear to college. The next thing I bought was the bat-winged sleeved skater shirt dress for £15. The next dress is a bit of a guilty purchase, i saw a friend wear a similar one so I bought it too, oops, this was £15. The next two items I bought because they had my name in the title, but I loved them, the paisley skater dress is such a nice shape but it doesn't compensate for boobs, so if you're on the breast-y side, maybe buy the size up, £18. And last is this beautiful sleeveless jacket, (yes I bought a fluffy one and a none fluffy one), it can literally make any lazy outfit look glam, my favourite so far is with a 3/4 black jersey top and black skinny jeans with converse or uggs. 

For a very long time I really wanted a pussy bow shirt and MissGuided was the only place I could fine one I loved, this was in the sale for £18. I also got a plain white top (so I could get free delivery) but also basics are my favourite thing to wear because I'm not very good in the morning and I think it was £8.

I also got a few things from Gap Outlet, they legit always have some sort of sale on so I can't remember the prices of these, but I got some legging skimmer jeans in a light denim colour, a really nice summery jean colour, and all my jeans are black and dark blue so it makes a nice change. I also got this white shirt with roll sleeves, again because I love basics and it's something nice I can wear to work.

At the moment I really love Topshop's duster coats, the one I initially liked they only had in a 12, 14 and 16 so I tried the 12 and it completely drowned me, so I went for this one instead, I'm really glad I got this one it feels like it's really classic and timeless so I can use it for a very long time. This was £89 but I got this on a day where they had a student discount offer. 

I think that's me done for now, that should keep me going until August when I have to buy some autumn bits.**

**This is all my opinion and bought with my money.

Let me know what've you been buying recently?

NEW YEAR SALE HAUL

To welcome in the new year, since I had no plans of my own, (except working) I decided to do a little retail therapy. 

First thing I ordered was some black to white obmre trainers from River Island £28, thesenarenactually the comfiest trainers I've ever owned, not that I've owned many, but still, really looking forward to workouts in these. Next I got a yellow scallop hem top from New Look £6, for £6 how could I not, it's such a nice length, boxy and really flattering. I also browsed the new in and found this fun airtex sports bra £9.99, I also found a nice pinky colour skater dress, with a flattering elastic waist £24.99, and last I was looking for a cute bracelet ring chain and I found this really nice one for just £6.99 and comes with loads of midi rings and normal rings too. Then I hopped onto DVDs and ordered New Girl Season 3, Amazon £12.99, I really love this show it's one of the few that can make me laugh out loud on my own in  my bedroom. For Christmas my family started a MAC pallet form me so I bought a few shades, £10 each per refil pallet and I got 'all that glitters' 'rhetrospeck' and 'bronze' for myself with a lipstick in 'velvet teddy' £15.50 and a lip liner in 'hover' £12.50. Also got some croc skater shoes Topshop £20, I can wear for work, 'salt and pepper' knit jumper for £30, so slouchy and comfy with an oversized checked shirt also £30, an october birthstone necklace in the sale for just £4.50 and much needed black Jamie jeans, £40, so flattering, so comfy. Last but certainly not least I got a new coat from Boohoo £30 in the sale, I couldn't fit it on the picture so I'll just insert the image from the website underneath, this coat is so nice, such a love.y colour, however what I will say is that within 10 mins the buttons all dropped off, nothing too major though.

I Have a Problem

It seems that I have a problem when it comes to buying new clothes and make up and hair products, when I haven't actually used or worn the stuff I have already. I just love stuff and I need it all. I have about 7 complete outfits in my wardrobe I've never worn, however when I get invited to a party or gathering or something I'll buy maybe two or three more outfits claiming 'I have nothing to wear!' which is a complete lie, the problem isn't i have 'nothing' to wear but I have too much to wear, and no way am I bragging at all, but this problem I have is 10x due to the fact my sister and I are the same size. And I can't get rid of anything, what if I need it in 17 years when it comes back in style?!?! Exactly. And I am sure that I am not the only one with this problem, however it has to stop, and I will try not to buy anything more until I've use / worn everything, but don't hold me to that...

OOTD

The other week a very good friend of mine had her 16th birthday party, (Okay so this is a bit belated, but the outfits cute)

I'd been seeing these daisy print skater skirts for a very long time on places like tumblr and wheretogetit and I reaaally wanted one because it's such a lovely pattern and it looks so flattering on all these girls I've seen so when I was looking in H&M and saw one I was very excited, especially since I had 25% off. 

I paired it with a simple tank top from primary, my topshop leather jacket, Chelsea boot high heel shoes and a statement flower necklace from forever 21.
