January Wishlist

Hello lovelies :) If you are a regular reader of my blog, you'll know that I've been having a tough time at the moment with my mental health and that my blog posts have been very scarce over the last month. I am finally starting to feel in a better place again, and I thought it was about time I shared something with you guys! I hope you all had an awesome weekend, and that you enjoy reading through my January wishlist. 

1. Deaths Head Moth Necklace by Curiology I have been lusting over this brand's jewellery for a while now. I absolutely love the look and design of this moth necklace. Deaths Head Moths appeal to the horror fan in me and instantly make me think of the incredible movie, The Silence of the Lambs. I used to be terrified of moths, until I got into nature photography as a hobby and realised just how beautiful they were close up. I recently got a bat neckace that had a similar design and I would love to add more like it to my collection, starting with this moth necklace.

2. Baby Beaver Cross Body Handbag How adorable is this bag!? Although, it's clearly a Sea Otter? Come on Grindstore! I bought a Sloth bag from Attitude Clothing a couple of months ago that was pretty similar to this and I think it's awesome that there are different animals available. I will never have enough cute, novelty shoulder bags. I think the bright yellow star is a lovely addition to the design, adding a little colour to the bag.

3. Lush 'Lovestruck' Bathbomb I am a massive Lush fan as my readers will know by now. I am a lover of bathbombs in general (that's all I ever seem to post on my instagram anyway!), and the ones made by Lush are a firm favourite of mine. I think it's so awesome how Lush take advantage of different special occassions and release themed products. The Valentine's range is lovely, especially this heart-eyed emoji one. The fact that one of the ingredients is lemon makes me want it even more because citrus scents are great! 

4. Wrendale Squirrel Magnetic Shopping Pad Wrendale have some of the most beautiful animal illustrations that I've ever seen; they are so nice. I go through a lot of list pads because I'm seriously list-obsessed, so I'm always on the look out for pretty list pads. I love this one because of the squirrel, which immediately makes me think of the character by Beatrix Potter, Squirrel Nutkin (forever my favourite of the stories).  What's your favourite Beatrix Potter story/character? 

5. Pro Cats Pro Choice Enamel Pin As a pin badge collector, I come across new pins online that I want almost everyday! I've spotted this lovely little pin by Punky Pins around instagram a lot and I would be so happy to add it to my collection. Punky Pins make such awesome badges and patches... you need to check them out if you haven't already!

6. NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream I first heard of NYX cosmetics whilst watching Ru Paul's Drag Race and I have been curious about trying it for myself after since. Quite a few of my favourite vloggers on Youtube use NYX lipsticks and I've seen some really pretty shades. The ones I want the most right now are 'Transylvannia', 'Madrid', 'Copenhagen', 'Berlin' and 'Budapest'. How awesome that they are named after cities too! I'm impressed that are only £5.50 each too. Has anyone used this NYX lipstick before? Please let me know what you thought in the comments :) 

7.  Colton Candles 'Large Candy Floss' Over the last month or so, I've been trying to practice a lot more self care in a bid to uplift my mood and to relax. One of my favourite things to do to cheer myself up is to have a nice, long bath. I always use a bathbomb, pop on my spotify playlist and light candles. By candles, I mean a ridiculous amount of them! haha meaning that I've done through so many candles lately and I am in need of some new ones. I thought this would be the perfect time to try some new brands out, and one of those is Colton Candles. I love how pretty the packaging is and I am interested to see what this Candy Floss candle smells like! I've never used soy candles before either so that's another reason why I would love to try this candle. 

8. Red & Black Tattoo Flocked Dress I love that Yours Clothing has been stocking Hell Bunny clothes for a few months now. I have always loved Hell Bunny's dresses and it's nice that they are available in a variety of plus sizes. There's a few dresses that I am after from the Hell Bunny collection at Yours Clothing right now, however this year one of my aims is to wear more colours that I would normally be too nervous to wear. I would love to challenge myself to wear a red dress, as I usually go for black or dark shades. I love the ribbons on this dress too!

September Wishlist

Hey everyone! I'm in such a fabulous mood today! Last night, I went to see The Rocky Horror Show musical in Blackpool, and oh my gosh, what an AMAZING event! The atmosphere was brilliant, everyone singing along and chanting the most hilarious things along with the narrator. So many people dressed up as the characters, and I really regret not doing so too! I am definitely gonna go back at the next chance I get :) Who else is a fan of Rocky Horror? Anyhow, on with today's post, my September wishlist. I hope you enjoy reading! 

1. Blue & Grey Cat Jumper how adorable is this jumper from Evans!? The cat has such a cute face! I'm on the look out for new jumpers at the moment to keep me warm through the colder months, and I'd love for this to be my first cosy jumper of the season! 

2. Now That's What I Call Musicals I absolutely love musicals, and I have been after this CD ever since I saw the advert for it on TV. It has songs from some of my favourite musicals on, and I'd love for some new musicals to be brought to my attention. What's everyone's favourite musical?

3. George Home Fox Mug Autumn is literally the best season ever for animal lovers!! The shops are always filled with deco and merch with the most gorgeous animal prints, usually woodland creatures, which I adore. Foxes are a favourite for this time of year, and they are one of my favourite group of animals. I need this mug to drink hot chocolate out of! 

4. Everlasting Liquid Lipstick by Kat Von D I have heard so many good reviews about Kat Von D cosmetics but never got around to checking it out for myself. Mostly because I knew I would only be able to get it from America and risk having to pay a customs fee. However, I just found out that Kat Von D make-up is coming to the UK, to Debenhams! Yay! I would love to try out more liquid lipsticks, and the 'Deep Raspberry' one from the Everlasting Liquid Lipstick range looks gorgeous! 

5. Unicorn Shaped Writing Set LOOK AT THIS LETTER SET! It's one of the cutest letter sets I've ever seen! I love everything about this product, especially how colourful it is. It would make a great edition to my letter set collection, but I don't know if I'd be able to bring myself to actually use it for writing my penpal letters on, haha :) 

6. Black Buckle Strap Ankle Boots Black boots are my favourite footwear. I'm in need of a couple of new boots for Autumn & Winter, and I really like the look of these boots from New Look.

7. ASOS Cat Velvet Cross Body Bag I am seriously lusting over so many of the accessories available at ASOS right now, but this sweet little cross body bag is at the top of my list! I love the simple design of it, and the fact that it's made of a velvet material. It's the perfect little bag for nights out. I really like when bags have a handy little zip compartment at the back so I can pop in all the important things that I don't want to risk losing when I'm drunk and clumsy-handedly pulling things in and out of my bag. It was always handy at uni when on nights out to pop my taxi money into too.

8. Spirited Away No Face Print This item was probably more suited for my Kawaii & Geeky wishlist, but everyday I'm falling more and more in love with watercolour art and so I end up having so many prints on my wishlist by the end of each month. My best friend told me about this Etsy shop the other day, and it's definitely all her fault that I've now added even more watercolour prints onto my wishlist! No Face is one of my favourite Studio Ghibli characters, and I'd love to have this lovely print of him up on my bedroom wall. 

Thankyou for reading!

June Wishlist

Hello lovelies! I hope you've all had a wonderful week so far! Tell me in the comments one thing that's happened this week to make you happy :) Tomorrow, I'll be travelling back home from my holiday in Prestatyn, Wales. I can't wait to blog all about it. Today's post is going to my monthly wishlist. Enjoy! 

1. Purple & Blue Mixed Print Top I'm in need of some short-sleeved tops and vests now that it's summer, and I just really love the design of this top. It will look great with a pair of leggings or jeans, and because of the darker colours, it will be fantastic for autumn too. 

2. Cat Bow Crew Socks Forever 21 has so many adorable socks! I wish that ankle socks didn't irritate me because they have such lovely pairs! I finally found a pair of standard socks and how adorable are they?! I love the tiny red bows on them, too. Seriously, go check out their socks :) 

3. Peter Rabbit Felt Garland I fell in love with the pretty garland instantly! It's so nice with the insects, bunnies and flowers, and I think it would just look fantastic up on my bedroom wall this summer. I absolutely love how the bunnies have little pom-pom tails! 

4. Pyro Pet Rabbit Candle I've been lusting over Pyro Pet candles for ages now, and I recently discovered that they had released a rabbit one, in both white and peach! I'm so happy that there's finally a bunny version (proud crazy rabbit lady here!) It's such a gorgeous design, really simplistic and would look great displayed in any room of the house. I just think these candles are so cool and quirky with the metal skeleton hidden inside. 

5. Lip Smacker Mini Milk Lip Balms My lips have been feeling really dry at the moment and I stumbled across this set whilst searching for lip balms last week. Mini Milks are delicious so I can't wait to find out what these lip balms taste like. Mini Milks make me reminisce about the summer holidays when I was a kid, of playing out with my friends all day in the sun, getting covered in mud and grass stains, riding my bike and playing on the local park and excitedly running home as soon as I heard the cheerful song played by the ice-cream van, hoping that my mum would give me money for a Mini Milk. It's hard to believe that they were only 20p each back then! What was your favourite flavour? Mine was milk.  

6. End Catcalling Necklace I really love all of the accessories made by Punky Pins, and this 'End Catcalling' necklace is both adorable and makes a statement. I'd love to add it to my new funky necklace collection that I'm building up. 

7. Black as Your Soul Bathbomb Hex Bombs have been taking the online world by storm at the moment with their unique, alternative-themed bathbombs, with the 'black as your soul' bathbomb gaining a lot of popularity on social media. It's no surprise though, this bathbomb looks incredible. I can't wait to try it out for myself. The only problem with them being so popular is that they go out of stock super quickly, but the company announce on their instagram when they've restocked their bathbombs which is handy. Have you tried any of the hex bombs yet?

8. Cat A4ish Notebook After receiving a lovely notebook from Ohh Deer in my lastest Papergang subscription box and absolutely loving it, I decided that I need more of their notebooks in my life. This is my favourite notebook currently stocked on their website. It's a gorgeous shade of pink and I love the simple design of it. The cat on the front is so bloody cute! 

9. Jeffree Star Cosmetics Liquid Lipstick in 'Abused' These lipsticks have been all over the blogging world lately and I've been wanting to try them out for myself since I first saw them a few months ago. All of the reviews I've read for them have just tempted me even more, and with so many awesome shades available, it's been hard to just include two on this wishlist. I want to challenge myself to wear a bolder colour of lipstick and I love how this shade looks. It's eye-catching but not too bright.  

10. Jeffree Star Cosmetics Liquid Lipstick in 'Dominatrix' I absolutely love brown lipsticks and so I was immediately drawn to this one, maybe the name attracted me a little too ;) It will be a great colour to wear in autumn especially, but I wear shades typically associated with autumn all year round because they are my favourite. It's a shame that both colours are currently out of stock, but I'll happily wait for them to be restocked to avoid any shipping fees if I was to order from the US. 

Thankyou for reading!

May Wishlist

Good evening everyone! It's time for another monthly wishlist :) I hope you all enjoy reading these posts! How's your day been? Let me know what you've been up to in the comments. I had a very nice lie in, watched tv, relaxed for a few hours in the garden and then got straight to organising this post. I'm lovin' how nice the weather is getting! 

 1. Festival Woven Rucksack I'm in need of a new backpack for summer to take with me when I visit places, like the zoo, new towns, etc, as I usually carry a lot of stuff with me especially when the weather is nice as I need to keep hydrated and like to carry a few bottles of water. This rucksack has a lovely design; I really like the colourful patterns and the brown straps. It also looks big enough to fit all my essentials in.

2. Marine A5 Notebook How cute is this notebook!? I really love the origami style of the animals on the cover. I love marine creatures and I've never had a notebook with them on! This needs to be rectified immediately, and it's the perfect time for me to get a new notebook. I like to keep all of my expenditure plans and other finance information in a 'money book' and the one I currently use only has a few pages left. Something I love about this marine notebook is that it has multiple sections in it, so I can organise the days I get paid into one section and what I'm spending in another. I can't wait to get a new notebook. It feels so nice to start a fresh book. I use all my favourite pens and my handwriting is always super neat. If only I would keep this up! My writing gets increasingly more messy as the book goes on! haha

3. Reasons to Stay Alive by Matt Haig I've seen so many great reviews about this book so I'm really looking forward to reading it myself. The book tells the true story of one man's struggle with depression. I also struggle with depression and I'm hoping the book will be helpful to me in some way, even if it just reminds me that my feelings are shared by others and that I am not alone in my struggle. 

4. Disney Princess Vans I absolutely adore the Vans X Disney range! I got the Alice in Wonderland Cheshire cat ones for my birthday and they are so pretty. With summer fast approaching, I need to get myself more shoes because most of the footwear I own right now are boots. I like how colourful these Disney princess Vans are, and that they have all of the classic Princesses on. Which are your favourite Disney Vans?

5. Diva by MAC Cosmetics This gorgeous shade of burgundy/red lipstick has been on my wishlist for a while now and after buying my first ever MAC lipsticks last month, I'm now ready to try more! I'm a big fan of the darker shades of lipstick and I would love to add this one to my collection. I'm definitely becoming more and more addicted to lipsticks! What's your favourite darker shade of MAC? I'd love some recommendations :)

6. Floral Smudge Tunic Dress Another thing that I need to do before summer is stock up on some new clothes! I love wearing black clothes so I only have a few items of coloured clothing in my wardrobe and the majority of those are evening dresses. I seriously need to do some clothes shopping and the first thing on my list is the lovely floral dress. The print instantly makes me think of butterflies and I love that it's not too bright with just a few splashes of colour on a darker blue background. 

Thankyou for reading!

February Wishlist

Hey everyone! It's time for another monthly wishlist :) Apologies for my lack of posting over the last few days, I've been really struggling with my mental health this past week and it's been difficult for me to get anything done. I'm so behind on my blogging schedule and to make up for it, I'll be posting twice today. I hope you're all having a loving day and that you enjoy today's posts! 

One I love the idea of this little book! I may not be the best artist but I really enjoy doodling and I love that this book will give me a random thing to draw each day. I think it will be fun to draw everyday, inconspicous objects as it will help me notice all of the little details in the things around me and make me more aware of their beauty and/or intricacy.

Two I really love this simple little ornament. It's so pretty and would go well in a room with any colour theme. I love everything Japanese related and I really want this to put in my bedroom. 

Three I am in serious need of a portable iPhone charger. The battery life on my phone is ridiculous and it sometimes dies on 40%! It makes it difficult to manage my instagram, twitter & tumblr when I'm out and about and want to show you all what I'm up to. Plus it's also really stressful to be out and not being able to contact anyone if I need to. I love the design and colour of the Veho Pebble and it will fit comfortably in my bag. 

Four I'm a firm believer that you can never own too many notepads, who's with me? I do own a silly amount of them though, but how can I resist this gorgeous RSPB notebook!? I love foxes and by purchasing it, I'm giving money to a great cause, contributing to the work of this amazing charity! If you love wildlife, check out their shop because there's some really beautiful things on there. I'll take one of EVERYTHING please :) 

Five I have been wearing make-up now for at least 10 years and I still have never used concealer! I really need to give it a try and so far, I've heard only good things about this one by Rimmel London. It's from a range called 'Wake Me Up' (there's also a foundation) and it's supposed to make your face look unfatigued, which I could really use right now :D Also on the Boots website, there's a 2 for £10 deal on selected Rimmel products! 

Six & Seven It's almost spring so I'm in need of some pretty, pastel shades of nail polish and these two colours, 'Huckleberry' from the Barry M Gelly Hi Shine range and 'Kiss me Quick' from the Barry M Speedy range caught my eye :) They are just lovely. 

Eight When I noticed that there's also a writing version of the first item featured on my wishlist this month, I was really interested. I'm curious about the different topics that will be inside :) I used to love writing; English was always one of my favourite subjects at school and back then, I used to write short stories all the time. I would love to get back into writing so this would be a nice start. 

Nine I've been spotting flower tealight candles on tumblr for such a long time and wondered like where the heck everyone was getting these awesome candles from? I want some! :( so I was really giddy when I found these. It's awesome that all the designs are different; my favourite flower is the pink and orange hibiscus. They are so pretty and I can imagine that I'd buy a pack and never actually light them :)

Ten How beautiful is this dress by Scarlet & Jo!? The colour is gorgeous and I really like the lacey sleeves. I can't not buy this dress any longer, I'm ordering it right after I've finished writing the post hahaha

 

Thankyou for reading!
