Obsession of the Day

Hi everyone,

So today while everyone goes on their Valentine's dates I am miles away from my boyfriend and having pizza with my friends instead! I hope all of you are having lovely days whatever you are doing. I did pick up a pair of matte leather look leggings from Primark which I am thinking of wearing this weekend for my friend's 21st birthday night out. If I do brave them (or something equally nice) I will try and do my first outfit of the day (or more likely, night) post for you. So... now you've read my life story onto the random item I have been wanting today

This fairly plain looking dress is from Topshop. It may not look much in the pictures but to me, this is a 'wear for anything' dress. Day time going to uni or shopping this could be paired with tights (or bare legs when temperatures reach above freezing) and loafers, a leather jacket and a lightweight scarf. Come night time this could be dressed up with a cool belt, heels and a silver choker necklace. The speckled grey colour is also gorgeous. And for Topshop the £29 price tag isn't bad either.

So as I had have a lovely Valentines evening, whether you're on a date or on the sofa!

Obsession of the Weekend

Hello everyone,
Today is going to be a bumper edition of things I want as I am going to stay with my boyfriend for the weekend for a romantic pre-Valentine's few days. I've never really been in to Valentine's Day but if it's an excuse to be pampered and have nice food then who am I to complain? I am slightly dubious of travelling in the icy weather but I'm just going to rock my Hunters and get on with it!

Also I would just like to thank those who have looked, commented and followed my page! It is really very exciting and I hope you like it!

With that being said here are the things I need in my life this weekend...

The first is Vivienne Westwood's new perfume and follow up to the popular 'Naughty Alice' called 'Cheeky Alice'. This perfume has won me over because I have always loved the smell of 'Naughty Alice' and I love the description of this one... peony, rose and lily. It sounds like the perfect spring scent! I also have to admit a love for the extremely cute packaging and bottle - it would look perfect on any dressing table! It is a reasonable price at £31.50 for 30ml and is comparable to lots of designer perfumes on the market already. Perhaps this could be a perfect Valentine's gift?

So on to clothes! Perhaps because I know that I am going to have to brave the cold today, or perhaps because it's so god damn cute I am in love with this missguided.co.uk cross print jumper! Although I think it would be perfect for cold days such as today with a vest top or shirt layered underneath I think it would also look great in spring with jeans, chinos or denim shorts. I love the print on this jumper as it is so on trend and would add a bit of fun to a classic wardrobe like mine! The price is also pretty good at £22.99. I am definitely sold

Last but not least are these beautiful bright purple skinny jeans from Warehouse. I love a coloured jean and these are just the perfect spring/summer colour. I can imagine them with just a white t-shirt, rolled up legs and some loafers or a black chiffon top and some black heels for a night out. They also seem to be slightly high waisted which for me (and my less than perfect stomach) is a definite plus! They are £40 which is similar to the price of my favourite Topshop Leigh Jeans.

So that's it for now. Whatever you're up to this weekend have a good one! I will see you all next week when hopefully the snow will have gone and spring will be on its way!
