It's official. I love London.
Had a great weekend catching up with some old friends who I haven't seen for far too long! I didn't get lost in London (as many thought I would) and I also managed to keep within my budget of £100 for the whole weekend (only just.) It goes to show that I can actually be better with money if I try. Just got to keep it up for the rest of 2011 now!
While I was in London I did have to battle against my shopping brain and stay away from anything that could tempt me. So everything then...
A two and a half hour train journey is a long time for me to daydream about new things to save up for. Now I know I don't 'need' these things, but when did that ever stop me?!
First on the list:
Katy Perry has just launched her new perfume 'Purr'. I love her style and everything about her so I hope it's not just another celebrity perfume which smells awful. She describes it as 'me in a bottle' and goes on to say:
“Purr is a natural extension of who I am as a woman - it's a gorgeous blend of all my favourite scents and embodies my style, my tastes and my love for all things incredibly cute. It is an absolutely purrfect perfume that I hope leaves you meowing with delight!..."
Perhaps a slightly cheesy recommendation but if it's made by Katy Perry then it can't be bad (plus I do like the funky bottle). Might be tempted to give it a try...
Love that dress! |
Perfume campaign |
Leading on from one amazing pair of shoes to another... Kurt Geiger still have plenty of shoes in the sale and I have been staring longingly at them for quite some time. Have a look at these beauties:
£79 shoes that go with everything! |
£69 would look funky with some muted tones |
The evidence - I'm the brunette |
So I've been looking at make up that will look more natural on me and a few people have recommended the Dainty Doll range which was created by Nicola from Girls Aloud.
Concealer |
I'm considering it but I'm still not quite ready to accept that I am THAT pale. We'll see...
Next on the wishlist:
Back to my failsafe shop: ASOS.
Motel £38 |
Love this cut of these motel dresses. I have two already with different patterns and the floral pattern on this dress is beautiful. YUM.
Mango £89.90 |
I always seem to like Mango dresses and this one can be worn for so many different occasions. I love the subtle change in colour along the bottom of the dress.
Enough daydreaming for now. Monday tomorrow, back to reality!
