2 Pencil Cases: Back 2 School


I've decided I might do a few posts on back to school. I already have quite a few of my school resources and wanted to do a post about Pencil Cases. Mainly because obviously they are vital for back to school but also because I had no clue what to do a post on but I wanted to do more to show I'm not lacking down.

I have found 2 pencil cases that are apropriate from Rymans (An english stationery store if you didnt know? You probably did like) and I am basically going to show you them and say what I think about them.

Sanderson Porcelain Garden Pencil Case - £8.99

 

Okay so when I saw this pencil case it did sort of remind me of Cath Kidson although I am aware that Cath Kidson designs are different. My favourite flowers are roses aswell so that is another reason I liked it. Plus of the fact it was the only age appropriate one on the first page as I am slightly hoping none of you are buying Hello Kitty pencil cases for school (No offense x ) I think it is pretty as I do alot of things and also like the size. My pencil case last year was basically what looked like a large pocket. I managed for the year but now I think about it I regret not getting a little bigger one where as this looks okay. There are lots of things you need for school in your pencil case which I will do a post on but it is important you can carry all that stuff. So that is why I think this is a good school pencil case!
 
Give A Hoot 3-Pocket Pencil Case - £4.99

Alright I'll be honest and say I thought of MacBarbie07 when I saw this because I know how obsessed she is with owls. I think it is cure but not personally something I myself would go for. Although it may be some of your type-of-thing. What I do love about this though is that its a three pocket pencil case and I had one a year ago. They are the biggest ones but not too big and honestly have the best storage space. I would recommend this if you put way too much stuff in your pencil cases like my usually as this may be what you need.

So that is it for this post as I want to do many more and this month ends on Sunday so my next posts for this month won't be too long. I hope you enjoyed this and keep coming back for my blog posts!
Thankk yoooooooooou!!!

New Look Purses

Recently I bought a new purse from Primark that I am absolutley in love with. I was going to do a blog post about them but decided against it as Primark as you know doesn't have a website and I don't know about any other purses they are selling at the moment other tha my own. So I decided to write about purses from new look as well because I know from past purchases that New Look purses are also very good.

Coral Stud Bow Purse - £5.99

 
 
So this is a pretty small purse but it is so pretty and everything like the kind of thing I would buy. I love everything with studs and this being one of them. The bright pink makes it noticeable I mean you could never lose it! It depends though if you want it to match your handbag as obivously you'd have to have a bright pink bag which isn't really what I'd go for. However, purses aren't their to match your bag, it's cute, pretty and is just a great purse to have.
 
Black Chain Trim Quilted Purse - £9.99
This is ever so slighly like my purse. Mine is black and opens etc. in the same way but the pattern is different and I do prefer my own if I'm honest. I quite like the patteren and it reminds me of rainbows the way it is drawn (is that weird? Probably) I also like the chain part as I generally think it looks pretty cool and obviously gold goes well with black. I like the gold chaines like on chanel bags as it just looks awsome and goes well. The price I paid for my purse though was only £5.00 at Primark and this one is £10 which I think if you would like a purse like this one you should check out your local Primark first incase you prefer any.
 
 
 Pink Colour Block Envelope Clasp Purse £9.99
Okay so out of all these purses I think this is my favourite. It just looks so classy and I think they should make a clutchh of this as it is so pretty and looks like the type of thing you would bring/hold at a party! I love that it has more than one colour including the bright pink so it doesnt look too dull.
This could go with anything as long as you wore at least one thing pink with it but of course as it is not a clutch you would probably want to keep it safe inside your handbag so you don't lose it.
I'm also suprised that this is the same price as the last one as I have said I do prefer it and I think £9.99 is a reasonal price for a purse like this. I like that it isn't too big aswell because my black purse wouldn't fit into my small brown bag I mostly use which is disappointing but this looks like it would fit in any and is a suitable size.
 
Thanks for reading, Hope you found this useful!

Day Beds

So if you have read my last post you might already know that I am getting my room redone this September. Originally I had my mind made up that I wanted a day bed for my room but then went off the idea. Its not that I dont like day beds but it wouldnt fit the idea of the room I want but maybe if your having yours redone it could fit yours?
I have found some pretty cheap day beds on various websites and if you wanted any of these I will tell you where each ones are from. They are all around £100 but that is the usual price for any daybed and I wanted to show you the different types. 

Bordeaux Day Bed £69.99 - B&M 


So can I start by saying that this is extremly cheap for a day bed and use to be £99.99. I'm not sure if this is a limited offer or not but Its definitly worth it and the sooner you buy it may be the cheaper if it goes back up. I want to sort of give my room a natural theme because they just look nice and its never really too much so white is a good colour to go for if thats what you want as well as brown. What I also like about this is that if you like fairy lights you can wrap them around the frame which will be another way of making your room look nice. It gives your room a glow and makes it look more comfortable and homely. As you can see it says Accessories and matress isn't included but for the price it is worth it!

Home Essence Dante Day Bed Frame £158.87 - Tesco



This day bed I feel is something like what I had wanted. I think its good because its easier to store your things and save space for what ever you may need. I am getting a storage bed so I can use the rest of my storage for my makeup and the clothes I cant fit in. I also again like the white to fit with a neutral theme. However, if you wanted to use this as a sofa you may want a bed with a higher back depending on there it will be. But if you put it against a wall it wouldn't matter and there wouldn't be any difference.

That is the only ones I will share with you as they can be hard to find and quite expensive which makes it harder to find cheaper prices. However, another type of day bed is one which comes with a matress underneathe. This can be good for sleepovers to make it more comfortable for your friends if you only have a single bed. But of course think of yourselve as well for your room incase that is not the kind of thing you want. 

Thank you for reading!

Room Accessories

As from september I am having my room redone and changing the way it is. I know alot of people close to me who are also changing theirs and maybe you are to? We havent done a post like this so I wanted to tell you about cool and vintage room accessories you can buy to make your room look the little bit nicer! 
 A common place wherenyou can buy alot of accessories at cheap prices is B&M Bargins because they sell alot of vintage items and their prices are lower than £10 depending on what it is your hoping to buy. There are many other shops just as good though and many of the items are cheap and will look amazing. 

1. Love You Butterfly Canvas £15.00 - BHS 


I think that this canvas is cute and the brown is a suggested colour for a vintage type theme. Not all of these decorations are vintage and I just think this one is cute and would look nice on a plain wall. You can get canvas' cheaper but obviously they won't all be the same and this may be one that is only sold at BHS so theirfore if you wanted it, it is not definite you can get in anywhere else for cheaper. However, there will be plenty of similar designs and places like B&M do sell them for a lower price which you may find more suitable.

Kids Ditsy Union Jack Collection Love Letters Wall Art £12.99 Dunelm Mill 


So although this says Kids I have seen so many people have these in their room. I love the fabric design on them and they just look pretty and would fit on ontop of a chesk of drawers, window sill or desk. However, I am not sure wether or not the price is too much? I know how to make these and wether or not it is cheaper im not sure but you can make different words and I am thinking about making a DIY video on it so that you can see and choose either one. Anyway they still look really nice and if you dont feel in the mood or dont have the time these would definitly be the better option as they are also professionally made. 

3. LED Heart Wreath £5.99 - B&M




I know that alot of people in their rooms own either fairy lights or something alot like it. They are adorable and will light up your room with a faint light instead of a bright one which just makes the room look prettier. I think that this one is nice because it hangs fairly on your wall and the heart shape obviously stays. Hearts are cute for vintage and this is quite perfect to make your room have more of that style and also look nice once you have redecorated it.

I could do alot more but tbh I dont really feel like it. I know posts have been slipping down so I'll try to do as many but I cannot promise there will be a routine and it will probably just be loads at once when we post.

Ootd - Outfit of the day

Its kind of weird that I havent done one of these already as maybe you'd of guessed I would. I used a photo from the same day 2 photos ago and this wasnt actually too recently nut it wasn't long ago & you can purchase these items still x


So this first photo is basically just me croched down. 
The top I am wearing is a Black and White Crop Top saying RAD on is in print. 2 people I sort of know actually have this top and I'm betting also alot of people I dont know. I like this top and is one of the ones I wear alot. I guess being thin helps it be a thing I can get away with as I dont want be offending to anyone who isnt but trying to get away with it if your a bit too on the other end isn't always a good look. I think it's important to ignore people, get on and do whatever you like while not letting anybody get you down but people nowadays are too judgemental and feelings can easily get hurt. 

But enough of that this top is from Primark and only £4.00!! Which is crazy cheap! I mean I know Primark is cheap but I think they feel they can get away with highering prices more now so be careful its not always as cheap as we've thought! 



This is a better shot of my shorts and I really love these! They basically have beads a small pearl balls sewed in aswell as orange (fake, obviously) gems/diamonds. It looks like the gem Amber and makes me feel special too!! I love this loose thread at the ends and the sort of rips to give it a messy look. These were actually £10 which would of been suprising for Primark once but not now! Inlove them any and they were worth the price as I love them and it can be hard to fine ones I like. 

So yeah our first Ootd and I'm proud of it aha! But yeah I love it and I'm happy with this outfit.
Maybe I tempted you to buy some? ;) 
Thanks for reading!

BBOTM/ Beauty Bargin Of The Month

Personally, I think I've done quite good with these monthly bargins because I have done them literally every month since I first started. Todays might not be interesting for Americans but for us UKers it should be. 

COZ DARLING MAYBELLINE BABY LIPS ENTERED THE UK. 
After years of waiting they have arrived and at the cheap price of £2.99 each they are this months beauty bargin.
 
Maybelline Baby Lips Balm Cherry Me 




Now nor me or Jane actually own this one but it is said to be the best and the one we both want the most. The thing about this one is that if gives more colour than the others which obviously would make your lips stand out more. Never the less the others are still pretty good and I will be happy to iwn them all. These just seem so good and Its disappointing because I bet somewhere Americans are laughing at as these to them could be 'so a few months ago' but to use they are what everybody should own. As it says on the packet they give you 8 hours moisture and for £2.99 they are all worth the price.

I highly recommend them for you unless you have already purchased them then comment down below your opinion. I hope you agree with me!

Claires Phone cases

Getting back on track with blogging I wanted to share with you lovely people about phone cases at claires. 
Recently me and Jane were in the trafford centre and found phone cases in claires that we are planning to buy in the future. The are all really nice and I shall share with you my favourites. 
There are many different kinds of phone cases so I will show all different ones.

1. Phone sock
This is kind of an easy choice because they practically fit any phones. However some phones like iphones might not fit aswell as they are longer and it kind of depends on the size of the phone sock & the phone. 


So this is a Fuzzy Face Phone Sock for only £3.00 at Claires. I think it looks cute and pink so you obviously know I'd like it. It looks the right kind of size for an Iphone if you had one but depending on the phone and the size it might not fit yours. If you like a look at this or anyothers I suggest having a look in store and trying out the sizes 

2. Phone Sock Onesie - £4.50 

Again I just thought this was cute. It can pretty much fit any phone and you can also buy a Studded Zip Up Jacket which is similar and the same type of thing. I guess for the phone sock too it has as much protection as putting in your pocket or somewhere and I think all of these will be more of a designer item other than protecion covers. I have a black sequin jacket one similar and it makes you phone look nice and isnt even that expensive. So I guess I would recommend this.

3. YOLO Wristlet Purse & Phone Case 


Well straight away this made me think of Macbarbie07 because she loves owls and probably would really like it! But I can't stop saying these are cute because they all are and You Obviously Love Owls coz I do? Doesnt everyone? I love the little pictures but cannot say that I like the luminous Yellow Wrist Band. Its not exactly my favourite colour and I would think it would look better as Pink or Blue or something? But thats just my opinion! Either way I think this is worth a buy being yet another to fit most (if not all) phones and as its rubber it has more protection than the first 2. This though is suprisingly pricey at £10 and I cannot promise it is worth all that. 

4.  Silicone Panda Phone Cover - Iphone 4 Compatible



So the main reason I chose IPhone 4 is because thats what phone I have. I'm sure you have all different phones but you'll be happy to know that it also comes for Samsung Galaxy 3 but sadly and suprisingly no IPhone 5? However there are similar types for Iphone 5 such as Hello Kitty and a Butterfly (;D) This is only £8.00 which I think is weird to be cheaper than the last one as this is my favourite (I think) but yeah. It's cute (Ye I know again, Sorry) and also I think I just love Panda's! These kind of cases are seen nearly everywhere and alot of people have them! I also have to say that I like the fact they are Silicone because I love the feel of it (is that weird?) and I generally thing they are more protected than Fabric ones. 

And yeah, thats pratically it I hope you enjoyed this posted but can I just say that plastic Hard covers are probably the most protective if your wondering (your probably not) 
But yeah thanks for reading :D x

Sowwy ;)

So obviously I havent done post for what? Years? But how much I apologise for this. I guess that with it being summer holidays you would of thought that I'd have plenty of time to blog. And yeah I guess I did but I never even gave it a thought. Also I wasnt really sure what I'd blog about if I did. But I'm back now anyways although saying that I wrote a post like this last time and then this happened.

Ahwell though cause I am basically sayin I'm sowwy and I promise ;) to blog post more often. My birthday is actually tomorrow but a new video is coming out and I have more editing to do from me & Jane a week or so ago so soon more should be coming. 

Thanks for staying wiv us, Sowwy
