I give you £1000!

Ok, so maybe the title is slightly misleading! ;)


This being only my 3rd blog post i am finding it difficult what to post, I do not want to have to specially place myself within a particular genre. This being because I feel it might limit what I post, and I want no limitations! FREEDOM


Well after that I came up with the idea of, if were to just be given £1000 and told to buy whatever I wanted, what would I buy? This may seem easy, but I found it quite difficult although saying that i did splurge out on quite a few expensive items! 

So here it goes...


NARS Sheer Glow Foundation - £30.50
NARS Bronzing Powder - Laguna - £26.00
NARS Blush - Deep Throat - £21.50


Next I wanted shoes!

Aldo Leather Friewen Over The Knee Boots - £110.00
Kurt Geiger - LORENA - Metalic - £49.00

And you have to buy the matching trainers..

Kurt Geiger - LORENA - Beige - £55.00

And a Handbag, or two?

MICHAEL Michael Kors Medium Jet Set Scarf Tote - Black - £206.00
Rebecca Minkoff - Studded Mini Affair Rose Gold Hardware - £142.72

Now you just have to have some pretty dresses...

New Look - Black Check BouclĂ© Belted  Cap Sleeve Dress - £24.99

Coast - Lauder Jersey Maxi Dress - Blue - £175.00

It might not be seasonal but I got to have some of my favourite jumpers... 
Topshop - Knitted Crystal Stud Jumper - Pale Pink - £46.00
New Look - Pink and White Prancing Reindeer Fairisle Christmas Jumper - £27.99

And now some pants to wear with these jumpers...

American Apparel - The Disco Pant - Black - £74.00


I virtually spent a grand total of £988.70!
Phew I wish I had this kind of money!

What would you buy if you had £1000 gifted to you?
Write a few of your ideas below I'd love to see if I could spend the remainder of my money with one of your ideas!

Last minute gift guide

As it gets closer and closer to Christmas I thought I would give those last minute buyers some gift ideas what to buy there special lady - girlfriend, wife, mother, sister. etc. 

Benefit: How To Look The Best At Everything - £25.50

This gift set is beyond perfect, whether you are new to benefit or love everything you need for a flawless completion in one place this set if for you. It comes with mini sized, POREfessional Pro balm, Boi- ing 01 & 02, Hello Flawless Oxygen wow "cheers to me" champagne brightening make-up and Hello Flawless! "me vain?" champagne custom powder cover-up. It also includes a small booklet with tips and advise on how to use the make-up. It retails at £25.50 and comes in three shades, light, medium & dark. 
I have described the light kit, others may vary.


Soap and Glory: Once upon a Lime - £18.00

Soap and Glory are never one to let you down and this gift set is no exception! This is my favourite scent that Soap and Glory have ever produced, it's light, refreshing and smells good enough too eat! The set includes; a body wash (can be used as bubble bath also), a body scrub and a body butter. Yum!


Aldo Leather Freiwen Over the Knee Boots - £110 

Of course I'm not suggesting you spend £110 If you don't want too, these are just an example! But they are beautiful! Over the knee boots are a great trend at the moment that can be styled in many different ways and look fabulous on most people! For those who can't quite bring yourself to spend this much money (reasonable) New Look have some great variations starting at around £30.00.

Yankee Candle: Christmas Classic 3 Small Jars - £19.99

Yankee Candle is one of my favourite candle producers, for me it's the price! I cannot justify spend £40 on a small sized candle. This is why this Christmas gift set is perfect! You get 3 small jar candles, the scents include; Christmas Eve, Christmas Cookie and Apple and Pine Needle. The scents are described as; 
Christmas Eve - Traditional holiday scents of a warm hearth, sugared plums and candles fruits.
Christmas Cookie - Buttery rich, vanilla scented, holiday sugar cookies.
Apple and Pine Needle - Popular pine gets a fruits twist as crisp apple notes are combined with pine needles, cypress and cedar wood.
You get 3 jars for £19.99, 1 jar retails for £8.39 saving you just over £5!



I hope you have enjoyed this short Christmas wish list guide!
