Escentual Wishlist.


I'm trying not to spend any money in preparation for London, but it doesn't stop me making little (okay, massive) wishlists at Escentual.com, I've never purchased from here before but I've heard good things and I love shopping different brands online. 
Most of the items I've chosen here are products/brands I've never tried before for various reasons, but I'd love to get my hands on. 

01. Clarisonic Mia; I've been after a Clarisonic for so long, I've seen such good reviews on them and I love the idea of a deep cleanse. The Mia is a smaller size, which is perfect for me as I always seem to be travelling. I love that they come in a variety of colours too. I wouldn't even know which one to choose, maybe the blue. 

02. Daniel Sandler Watercolour Blusher; I saw a review on this a while ago, and I'm yet to try it out. I do like powder blushers usually just because they're easier but I love the idea of this, it seems like it would be so natural and just giving a light "flushed" look. I can't chose between Cherub and Flush! Has anyone tried this product before?

03. Too Faced Look of Love Bag; this little collection is such a bargain, as most of the products are full size. I've got the Too Face Naked Eye palette which I love, and I think the quality is great but that's all I've tried from the Too Faced range really. I love that this set comes with everything you'd need, including a cute kabuki brush, mascara and makeup bag. It's definitely worth the £32 and something I shall be saving up for! 

04. Stila One Step Correct; Stila is another brand which has somehow bypassed me completely, although we now have it in my Boots so at least I can swatch and test. I like this idea of this corrector, especially as my skin is a bit awful at the moment. Something to smooth it over and take away any redness would go down well with me. I like the idea of primers, and I do have a few but I haven't really found one which really works with my skin. 

05. Clarins Daily Energizer Cream; This range had a massive launch, I wish I had bought one of the kits they were doing when the range first came out. I'm trying to stick to/use up the skincare products I have, but once I work my way through them, the Clarins Daily Energizer range is top of my list. I love the idea of radiant looking skin. 

What do you think of my wishlist? Have you tried any of these products? Check out Escentual.com for more great products!

weekly wishlist: Topshop.


How bad is it that I'm already excited about autumn/winter clothing! I'm really not a 'summer dresser', I find it difficult to know what to wear in Britain due to the weather being hopelessly unpredictable!
I wandered into Topshop today (without buying anything due to all spare money going into the London fund) and had a little squeal when I saw fur coats on the rails. FUR COATS MEAN IT'S GETTING COLDER. 
I'm a seriously casual dresser most of the time, I like comfy tshirts, scarfs and big jumpers which doesn't play well in summer. 
I've been trying to find the perfect grey tshirt for so long, and I was planning to roll up the sleeves myself but here we have it, a ready made one. I didn't see this in store today (otherwise it would be proudly hanging in my wardrobe right now), but I think it would go well with anything, especially this coral maxi skirt or with black skinny jeans and the burgundy scarf. 

I'm also loving structured handbags at the moment, I'm still lusting over a Mulberry (take note, dad!) but this Topshop cutie will do for the time being. 

I'm on the look out for a nice pair of Creepers. I've loved Creepers for so long, ever since I was emo (seriously) aged 15. I want a teal coloured pair, but can't find the perfect ones. I know they're not for everyone, but they would add some serious inches on to my height too. 

How are you feeling about my premature A/W lustings?

Topshop Wants.



Oh Topshop, why do you do this to me?! A sneaky browse on the website has got me lusting over a new summer wardrobe. I've lost a couple of pounds recently (without trying, hurray!) which makes baring more a little easier. 
I'm not a massive fan of having flesh on show (how very Victorian of me) but I think a little bit here and there makes a nice change, especially when it's warm. 
I'm really loving mint clothing at the moment, so I couldn't resist this shirt and dress, such gorgeous pieces! I'm also all about coral & apricot shades this season, I think they look great on everyone. 

I've been looking for a pair of black wedges like this for a while, how gorgeous are they?! Although these ones are a bit more than I'd like to spend, so hopefully New Look or Primark will get some in stock sometime soon. 

Ps. Couldn't not include a peter pan top in there somewhere, it wouldn't be a gh0stparties wishlist without it! ;)

ASOS Wishlist.


I, like most, got the Groupon voucher where you paid £9 for a £20 voucher. I actually got three, I bought two and my boyfriend bought me one too! So I'm now wondering what to spend my money on. 
I'm not feeling the ASOS clothes at the moment, there's nothing that I want. To be honest, I haven't seen anything on ASOS clothes-wise for a while now.
I've got my heart set on a NARS blush, but there are none in stock and I don't know whether I should just wait it out and see if they get any in... 
I fancy a NARS multiple (maybe in Malibu) and a NARS lipstick in Jungle Red. 
I also love this Models Own polish in Pink Fizz, such a gorgeous glittery pink! I love glittery polishes but hate taking them off. I think it's worth it though. I'm considering buying a Models Own blush too, I've never tried one before but I love buying new blushes. 
Finally, I'd love some cute vintage necklaces to brighten up outfits. I hardly have any necklaces now, I seem to just wear the same ones. I love these two that I've picked out, especially the peach flowery heart.

What's everyone thinking about buying?

Missguided Wishlist.


I was recently contacted by Missguided to advertise on my blog, and I decided to do a little post on some of the items I would like from their site. Missguided is a womens clothing website which offers lovely items for affordable prices.
I logged on to their website, and found that they'd changed their site layout since the last time I'd visited which really appeals to me. It made things easy to find, and it was speedy (no waiting hours for images to load!) and I found some lovely items really quickly.
The first is this crochet peter pan collared top, if you've followed my blog for a while now, you'll know how I feel about peter pan collars! This top is gorgeous, quite vintage style which is on trend right now and it looks like it would be easy to wear with a high waisted flared skirt and a skinny belt.

I noticed this navy applique dress, which looks lovely and casual for day time (perfect with the cream brogues) but also dressed up for evening with some nude heels and a cream cardigan. I love coral and navy together, so this would go well with a coral cardigan or bag. I love the style of this dress, especially the neck detail. It's quite 1940s I think.

The floaty nude dress is definitely something I'd wear on a night out. I love the one-shoulder dresses, and the colour makes it a bit more classy. This would go well with a lovely black clutch bag and some platform heels.

I love gold jewellery, especially cute pendants so this gold birdcage necklace is definitely on my wishlist. It instantly adds some style to any outfit, and would go well with the navy dress too.

The cream brogues are my favourite! I live in brogues, but don't own any this colour. Brogues are so easy to wear, they go with dresses, skirts, shorts & jeans. I'd wear these with a pair of grey skinnies and a peter pan collared top. I think out of everything pictured here, I definitely need these shoes in my life!

I have a love for black satchels, and i'm dying to get my hands on a Mulberry Alexa, but until then this lookalike black satchel is on my wishlist. It looks a lot like the famous Mulberry bag, but for considerably less. I don't go anywhere without a big handbag, and of course, black goes with everything.

There are heaps more lovely items on the Missguided online store, so it's definitely worth a look.
