Topshop

As you all know, or should, I LOVE Topshop. Don't get me wrong I like to venture in to different shops too as I enjoy a bit of variety in life. It doesn't help living on an island where you only have a choice of H&M, New Look, Dorothy Perkins, Jane Norman, TKMaxx, Peacocks and Internationale. I'm not even joking this is basically what our main town consists off. So its little wonder that I continuously revert back to my old favourite Topshop!!

So I have recently stated on a saving mission. I'm 23 and seen as though I have been careless with my money for all these years I thought now would be a good time to start thinking about my future! I have to say I'm very proud of myself this month, I gave myself an allowance and I actually stuck to it! As well as putting some money in my savings account, which I have not touched. So overall I'm pretty chuffed with my good start! The other day I had to go in to town to buy a birthday present for my boyfriends nephew, everything was going fine until I stepped out of the toy shop and straight across the road was Topshop staring me in the face. So being naturally drawn to it I popped over for a quick peek inside as it felt like it had been way too long!! I was very proud of myself as I came out with absolutely nothing (YAY) although that doesn't mean to say that I didn't want EVERYTHING (ARGHH) Luckily my boyfriend and I made a deal after I cut up all my store cards and he said if I make it to the end of the month without buying anything he would treat me to something in Topshop :) So far so good only 1 more week to go, so I'm hanging in there!!

February Wishlist




Even though I have put myself on a spending ban because I'm trying to be responsible and save money, I can't help but trawl through the internet and shops. Its like an addiction, I see things and I just HAVE to have them in my life! Here are a few beauties I've spotted recently which I would really love to add to my wardrobe!! I have never tried any of the Naked Palettes from Urban Decay, I love this new addition to their collection and it seems to be a reasonable price! I'm also currently loving the bowler hat fashion at the moment. I tried the Topshop one on but just couldn't justify the £25 price tag so was thrilled to find the cheap Ebay equivalents. I have wanted a Topshop Geek top for ages too but being so tiny the t-shirt just swamped me (I know its ment to be oversized but it was ridiculously oversized on me!!) I was so disappointed ... until they bought out these nifty little crop tops, still oversized in style but a much better fit for me than the t-shirt!

This weekend I am going shopping in Portsmouth which is a pretty big deal for someone stuck on a little island! My lovely boyfriend is taking me over and we are making it a pre valentines trip (because I'm away the weekend of Vday) including a meal out in Gunwharf Quays. So should be fun! Hopefully I will come back with some of these goodies but I am still trying to be good! I will not give in to temptation ...... too much! :)
