ASOS Wishlist
My ASOS wishlist is always way too long with it currently having 123 items on there. So I thought there was nothing better to do than show everyone my key pieces from my wishlist.
What items are your favourite? What's on your ASOS wishlist? I hope to be able to buy some of these items very soon especially the pink flats and pink satchel.

First of Many Hauls
Shopping is my addiction.
I was just quickly at the shops today to collect shoes from Next and ended up picking up a few things unexpectedly. In my defence I do need to get summer clothes for both my holidays.
So here we go..
What I originally went to the shops for were these amazing shoes. I saw them first when shopping with my mum last week, and when we got to the checkout I was given a £10 off voucher when creating an account, so I couldn't say no to these shoes. They ended up at £12. The toe is pointed, which is black suede and the heel is white faux leather. They look beautiful and are very sturdy shoes. I got these in a size 5, and will have to exchange them for the 4. I've been a size 5 for about 6 years and all of a sudden my feet must have shrunk.
As I have my school leavers (prom) coming up I had to get shoes to wear with my amazing new dress. The ones I wanted were Steve Madden from House of Fraser but unfortunately they have been out of stock everywhere for weeks now so I had no way of getting my hands on them. Very gutted. So these were the next best thing. They are just from River Island and only £45. Such a good price, as I did not see why I should spend a fortune as I would only wear them once and probably never again. They are known as the 'Silver T bar barely there stiletto sandals' and are available in many different colours. They have a buckle strap around the ankle, which will help keep them on. I also had to get these in a size 4, although the woman in the store did say they were made big. They are about 4.5 inches high (11cm) and I cannot wait to wear them (once I'm able to walk in them).
Next I went into H&M to return some items that were too big. I immediately fell in love with this top. It is a pastel pink - my favourite colour at the moment - with PALM SPRINGS wrote across the chest area. It has short sleeves that are already turned up and in an almost sweatshirt material. It was £12.99 and I'm sure they sold it in a pale yellow colour as well, and many different designs of the same style. It looks like the top would be cropped but it does cover your belly button and when wearing high-waisted jeans it does cover all of the zip on hem.
I came across another top in H&M that was so pretty. I am also in love with palm tree print at the minute, so when I saw pink palm trees on a top I had to have it. As I was looking for my size, I saw the price tag which was only... £3.99, now how could you say no to that? It is cropped, which sits quite a bit up from my belly button and I'd say was quite a big size XS. However, it is perfect for summer and I love it. Currently they seem to have dropped their prices with most of their cropped tops being this price, and skirts as low as £3.99 as well. Amazing bargains for summer!!
Lastly I got some essentials that I need, which are pretty boring but I will mention them anyway. The skate shoes I got from Topshop rub slightly on my feet so I had to get those socks that cover your heels and toes - I have no idea what they are called but I hope you get the idea? If you know what they are known as please let me know! I did manage to get 3 pairs for £7 from Next thankfully, as I had none at home so couldn't wear my new shoes much. I also bought a new umbrella for £4.99 from h&m as mines broke in the wind and rain a few weeks ago. It is just a plain black one as usual.
Finally I picked up 'fresh vanilla hand and face wet wipes' from h&m purely because they smelt amazing and were 99p.
This was a pretty short haul but I felt like I've wrote tonnes. All items were bought from Fort Kinnaird, Edinburgh and are all still available in stores. Any comments are much appreciated and your opinions on what I bought would be lovely.
Much Love.

Eyebrow defining
I'm no Cara Delevingne. But when it comes to eyebrows they have to always be on point. I mean awful eyebrows are just my worst nightmare. Personally, I have awkward eyebrows as there are gaps in them which means I need to pencil them in everyday anyway. However, finding the perfect eyebrow pencil seems to be a challenge and I have currently settled for one by Collection. I have also tried ones previously by Maybelline and Rimmel.
What eyebrow pencil do you recommend?
1. Maybelline Eye Brow Pencil
I've looked everywhere to see what this is exactly called and cannot find it anywhere and is no longer on Boots or Superdrug's website, so maybe it no longer exists. I have no idea. I'd say this one was my second favourite. This one is easy to apply (smooth not rough), is a light shade - useful as I have fair eyebrows - and has a brow brush on the other end.
The down side to this one is it has to be sharpened, which I'm really not a fan of as most of the pencil ends up in the sharpener and it can never be perfected to how it comes when you originally buy it.
2. Rimmel Professional Eye Brow Pencil
This one was bought in an emergency, as I had not realised I ran out of my previous one. It was the only eyebrow pencil close to my eyebrow colour in the entire shop. I personally do not like it, as it is too rough when applying and my eyebrows look fake. I got it in the colour Hazel which was the lightest colour, but was still far too dark.
3. Collection Eyebrow Definer Pencil
I've never ever used a Collection product ever, but when I saw that this one didn't even need sharpened I had to have it. It is by far the best one I've tried yet and I'd recommend it to anyone. AND it was only £2.79!! I'd so recommend this, absolutely amazing,

Hello Spring Wardrobe
Today the weather was 'highs of 13 degrees' which for Scotland in April is pretty fabulous. Even if it did still feel cold, at least there was no rain or wind.
Every Easter for 7 years now I have spent it at my aunties friends house, whom basically invites everyone she knows for a BBQ. So that meant I could wear a spring styled outfit. Result.
My face was originally in that picture but it looked too fugly to post so I had to make do with no face. I absolutely love this outfit. I also got to break in my new topshop shoes.
What I wore
Kimono - H&M (Sisters)
Cami - New Look (915 section)
Jeans - Asos
Shoes - Topshop
Bracelet - Pandora (Gift from friends)

Topshop Skate Shoes
So most of my posts are going to be reviews of products I have recently bought, or talking about products I would like or have heard good/bad things about.
A friend of mine had bought the skater shoes from topshop in black and I immediately fell in love. I'd usually also go for the black option, however since it is now spring I decided to opt for the baby pink. Which is now my new favourite colour for clothing.
I personally would highly recommend these shoes to ANYONE. The only con is they aren't too comfy to begin with, but after breaking them in (taking about a day) they are completely fine. The colour is beautiful and perfect for spring/summer. I would't advise to wear them to somewhere they could get dirty as it would ruin the colour of the shoe.
The shoe has a croc print effect and are slip on, so take no time or effort to spend forever tying laces or stopping to fix them when they have untied. And the best thing of all is they are only £20!!!! A complete bargain for topshop.
I will most definitely be going back to get them in black and I'm hoping they will be released in different colours in time for summer.
You will find them here: http://www.topshop.com/en/tsuk/product/shoes-430/flats-459/skaters-2722266/tika2-embossed-snake-skaters-2704439?bi=1&ps=20
