Wildfox

I love Wildfox. Simple, cute, easy to wear t-shirts and sweatshirts. I already have the 'Love Potion No9' t-shirt (with the purple writing) but i want to add to this with a sweatshirt. There are a couple that i like but the one i'm really craving at the moment (even though it's not current season- fall 2009) is the vampire one. I'm uncertain on which colour to get though, mustard or baby pink? Personally i think the mustard has that edge however, the pink my suit me more (hair and complexion-wise!) I've been shopping around online and at the moment, the mustard is a pre-order job for around £68 whereas i've spotted the baby pink one on ebay as a BIN for just £34 (£12 postage, it's coming from America) but i really don't think that's bad at all!


which do you prefer, the pink or mustard?

hello october

Yes, it's October now, what i class as 'official autumn'- maybe cause it is ha! Yesterday i went to Chester, i really love it there and i go pretty often (because my local town is awful so i never shop there.) I hadn't been in a few months though, purely because i've had my holidays and just lots of reasons that have stopped me from going! I'll be making my regular monthly trips again starting now though :)! Anyway, i bought a few bits and bobs, thought i'd share them on here .. also showing the boots which i ordered off ZARA the other week now (and my ASOS hat, the h&m order isn't really worth showing, it was just a ring and a basic cardigan!)
So yeah, i was gonna buy the MAC face&body foundation yesterday, but they didn't stock it in the department store, was gutted, so did a risky thing of ordering offline even though i don't know what shade i am .. oops, we'll just have to see how that turns out.
What did i come back with anyway?
- ZARA lounge trousers (actually got these for the gym, but they look too nice for working out in, and also look wicked with my boots!)
- ZARA leggings, well actually 'jeggings' but i hate that word, and actually i'd rather just say pull on jeans, cause they aren't even legging material like they were when they first came out! (btw i got these in blue, i never ever buy jeans in any colour other than black haha!)
- Topshop brown/camel-kinda coloured t-shirt, just basic but the i only have vests in camel/brown and it's getting colder now, so needed something with a higher neck.
- River Island shorts, love these, saw them on the website and have been lusting after them ever since.

I really want a leopard print coat, but nothing too in ya face leopard print, i saw a nice one in new look actually, not too bad for £50 either!
oh forgot to say, got two new rings from primark, one i bought the other week, but dropped and the stone came out and it was like my current fave ring, so i just re-purchased aha!





below are my boots and hat!


(sorry i don't photograph well!)
Hope everyone's had a nice weekend and week for that matter; Sarah x

to be real

Bit random but i love that M&S advert, it was just on and reminded me. Anyway, can't believe how fast this weeks gone! not just this week though, every week seems to fly by too quickly for my liking and i'm finding myself not actually doing anything with my time! This week i have:
- been to work
- shopped a tiny bit
- bummed around alot!

Tomorrow i'm starting spinning at the gym, never done it before, but always wanted to try it; i hope it shapes my legs up! I still haven't brought that asos coat yet, i get paid soon, so maybe then, we'll see.
I'm going to Chester next Saturday, and then in 2weeks time, i'm off to Oxford and Cambridge (fingers crosses that the trip doesn't get cancelled this time!)
I'm in the mood to draw today, so maybe, after i've taken my dog out and read some more of Marley and Me.
On the update of my ZARA boots, i'm still waiting .. i hope they're worth the wait, quick question, can i return them to store if i don't like them, or if i buy off the website, do they have to be returned by post?

hope everyone's had a nice weeked, x!


(really love the clothes on this Chloe ad campaign, such a sucker for Chloe.)

Today

Today has been rather pointless. Still no packages for me in the post. Currently i'm:

- watching Britain's Best Dish; my fave programme
- thinking that i'm never gonna get a good job
- wanting to get out of this area and do something more with my life
- wishing i had more confidence so that i can make the above one happen
- admiring my Chloe handbag whilst watching BBD
- thinking about what it would be like to win the lottery.

In a strange mood today, weird, like i'm not really here .. freaky.

much love, Sarah x

updated wishlist

I just can't control myself these days, all i wanna do is spend spend spend! There are just so many beautiful items out there, and not enough money in my pocket to own them! (well i could, but deep down, i know i should be saving!) Anyway, just been checking out the new ASOS White collection and i adore it. It's so classy and elegant. The pieces all look so timeless and clean-cut; which i just love. So the one thing that has majorly stood out to me and basically the one thing that i'm gonna be buying within the next few weeks (even though i don't need another coat!) is this B-E-A-UTIFUL coat, it's so me, it deserves to be worn all A/W and it wont ever really date due to the classic colour. I'd team it with (when it arrives, fingers crossed tomorrow, my asos fur hat)




The next thing i'm after is to indulge in a spot of leopard print. I don't wanna go too OTT with this, but i think a subtle hint of this trend i will take on board. I'm thinking of this headscarf, also from ASOS (seriously love asos!) and perhaps some leopard ballet pumps. A stunning Lanvin pair have caught my eye, but at £300, i don't think i'll be prancing around in them any time soon aha! They're available from the new 'shoe galleries' @ Selfridges, however, i will be sure to settle for a cheaper alternative .. perhaps off ebay.



and the asos headscarf ..


I think that's all, still patiently waiting for my H&M, ASOS and ZARA packages to arrive .. i feel i've been waiting forages :( boohoo; much love, Sarah x

no Oxbridge

This weekend i was meant to be going to Oxford and Cambridge however, the trip got cancelled for some stupid reason (i don't think the coach was full enough or something), so i went to work instead. I've been doing a bit of online shopping this past week, so when my items finally arrive to me, i'll show them on here. Nothing too exciting (apart from the boots!). Next weekend, i have zero plans, well, i was meant to be going to Chester but, mum has to work therefore, we can't go. The weekend after that however, i'm meant to be going to London for the fashion event at the V&A, i am still in two minds if i should or shouldn't. If i don't, i'll be going Chester that weekend instead. Is any of this making sense aha? It kinda is in my head .. but seeing it written down i feel i'm not making any sense at all. Rambling now, blehh. Oh also, here a few of my picks from ZARA .. i thought i'd purchased most of the A/W collection, but missed these bad boiiz ..










by the way, i'm in love with this ASOS model below, i think i've saved like every image of her aha! her face is so pretty and i want her hair and her figure! what do ya think?




hope everyone has had a nice weekend anyway, x

change in weather

The past few nights, i've really began to notice a change in our weather, is it officially Autumn now? I always get confused when actual seasons begin. Anyway, the light nights are starting to really vanish, i'm getting tired and usually falling asleep on my bedroom floor (ha, i don't get why i do this, but i always do!) and the air really has that different feel to it. I'm sounding rather negative here, but actually Autumn is my favourite season! Autumn/Winter clothes always have been and i think always will be my favourite.

Anyway, i've just been browsing matchesfashion.com and came across this gorgeous 'MCQ by Alexander McQueen' jumper, isn't it gorgeous? at £285 i don't think it's too badly priced, however, it is only something i can dream of owning!
