Wishlist Wednesday #4



I realised it's probably a bit strange that my wishlist this week contains all pin up and rockabilly inspired items with a random kitchen utensil thrown in. I just like to mix it up sometimes, what can I say? 

1. Vivien of Holloway's Kitty Day dress (Seashell Stripe) - £89
I don't have any dresses in this style so as soon as I saw this collection - and this style in particular - on the Viv website all I have done is lusted after it. I imagine myself teaming this with a white waist belt and a Sunjellies bag. I cannot get enough of having day dresses and this is one I have to have in my wardrobe because I adore the pastel colours and rose prints; plus the perks are that the skirt has pockets on it, we all love dresses with pockets!

2. Spiralite Vegetable Spiralite by Spiralz - £29.95
I want this item in my life so desperately as I'm currently on a lifestyle change; I'm going from being a junk food addict whose days used to rely on eating crap to make myself feel better to being a person who is fit and healthy. I love the idea of this machine - it really mixes up healthy food; you can make courgetti spaghetti with it and I just wanna make it because the name is fun to say haha. 

3. Make Up Revolution - Iconic Pro lipsticks - £2.49
I think I am right in saying that most bloggers all know and think that Make Up Revolution are an outstanding high street make up brand.  I recently bought a few bits from their collection after having not done so in a while and I decided to try some of their lipsticks. I bought a colour from their basic lipstick range in which their lipsticks cost only a £1 and I have to say that the colour pay off and staying power is incredible and well worth more than £1. I'm bewildered as to how they do it really. Moreover, the range of colours in their lipstick collection is vast and it's so tempting to try them all but they do all add up, unfortunately; my online basket went up to £60 from wanting to try so many items. The packaging for the Iconic Pro lipsticks is so gorgeous - gold and black which is so professional and sleek looking, so I'm really eager to try this range. 

4. Flamingo brooch by Deer Arrow - $19 AUS
You may or may not have seen my previous review on Deer Arrow's sundae brooch, but I know I completely raved about it - and them. It was my first ever brooch and it is super cute and beautifully painted. I love shedding light on smaller businesses, especially ones who take the time to hand make and put love and care into their products which is clear that Deer Arrow do. Now on my wishlist is this flamingo brooch, I'm in love with kitsch items and flamingos so this brooch and me? yep, we're meant to be. 

5. Ginger Atomic Flamingo Wing Bust dress by Collectif - £57.50
I saw this dress on the beautiful Diablo Rose and I knew I had to have it. Granted, I know it won't look as good on me and I will have to wait until I lose more weight until I get it (for myself really) but it's simply a gorgeous dress. Collectif have such a great selection in their summer range and there's a lot of pale blues and pinks which I am adoring. I love that this dress comes with an adjustable straps so you can wear in differents ways to mix things up and the print is just adorable. 

6. Ahoy Skirt Sailor skirt by Collectif - £35
I need to up my skirt game so badly; I don't own any pencil skirts and being a fan of nautical style clothing, this is one I've got my eye on. It's definitely going to be one I'll be saving for as I don't have £35 to just spend on a skirt but I know I'll be able to wear this one for both smart and casual occasions. I do need to get sexier clothes into my wardrobe and this skirt is perfect!

Friday Favourites #1

With a total blog transformation coming up, I've decided to add some regular new features to the blog. Firstly, on Wednesday's, I was doing my Instagram posts but I've decided to not do this any more, but I do encourage you all to follow me in on Instagram to keep up with what I'm doing! I am now making room for 'Wishlist Wednesday'. You'll have seen my first Wishlist Wednesday this week and I'm enjoying it! 

Alongside this, I've now started a Friday Favourites; I'm looking forward to sharing with you all my favourite things that I am enjoying that week. I'm hoping it gives you a little better insight to me personally and what I get up to in my spare time. 

So this is my very first Friday Favourites and I'm sharing with you all what I've been loving:


I'm totally loving this shot of Dita Von Teese and Scarlett Johansson for Flaunt Magazine. I've never seen these before but these two beauties together make me happy. I actually thought this shoot was new but it's from 2006, hehe oops! I still love it anyway! 


Whilst I've been off work, I've spent most days off work and re-watching Peep Show for the millionth time. It's just the BEST okay?! It's hilarious. You can't blame me, I feel like Mark (maybe less stupid though) because I totally relate to his constant anxiety and I'm most definitely as lazy as Jeremy (sometimes). 


I'm reading American Gods at the moment. It's the first novel I'm reading by Neil Gaiman and I've heard some amazing things. So far, it's definitely a little weird for me but I am enjoying it very much. 


A while ago I wrote a review on Deer Arrow's sundae brooch which you can read about here, if you read it then you know I absolutely adore this brooch. I'm still loving the rest of their collection at the moment and I can't wait to eventually put in another order. I absolutely love these four. Check them out at www.deerarrow.com - they only cost $5 AUS to post from Australia which is fantastic!


I recently started listening to Kendrick Lamar's new album; I have never listened to him before to be honest but I wanted to listen to something new and different to what I normally do so I stuck this album on and I'm hooked. I love listening to this at the gym!




My favourite blog at the moment is the lovely Hayley over at miss-mandarin-x.blogspot.co.uk. She has amazing style, fantastic hair, wicked body positivity (I love her interviews with body posi people check them out here) and is in general a lovely girl! 


That's all my favourites for this week!
What have you been loving?
