February Wishlist

Today is Pancake Day, one of the best food days of the year apart from Christmas Day and Easter, I spent the day with friends eating pancakes and watching films. Perfection. Anyway onto the wishlist...




Motel Crop Top and Shorts in Paisley Blue Print- £22 and £35
For a while I have been looking for a set of matching co-ordinates. While looking through the 'New In' section on the Motel Rocks website I saw these and feel in love. I love the china blue paisley print and the off the shoulder neckline of the crop top, they are perfect for spring and summer even if it is freezing cold in the UK at the moment.

As you can tell I am obsessed with clothes that are off the shoulder, and I first found a dress very similar to this on the Motel Rocks website but it was around £30-£40. So when I found this on Missguided I was jumping for joy. I've never ordered from Missguided before though, if you have, is it good quality? And what's the delivery like?

Ever since I saw Rihanna in her "We Found Love" music video wearing a denim skirt and matching denim bralet I knew that I needed a denim skirt for the summer. That was last year and I still haven't bought one, but as soon as there is 25% student discount on ASOS I will be getting this. If £40 is too much Topshop are also doing some denim skirts for a more reasonable price.

This is Nicki Minaj's second shade for MAC's Viva Glam range and I love it! Okay, it isn't very practical as it is lilac, but what's the harm in trying it? All the proceeds go to charity after all!

I have seen so many pictures on Instagram of matte nails that just look so stunning! I've seen some good reviews of this and it looks really great so next time I'm in Boots I'll be picking this up.

How did you spend Pancake Day?

  5. The lipstick looks lovely. I am a huge fan of MAC lipsticks and i'd happily put this one into my collection. Like you said, seen as the money goes to charity, it is completely justifiable!;) xxx

  8. Matte nails are the best, you don't have to worry about the glossy sheen disappearing after sleeping. I have Bourjois matte top coat and Essie Matte About You, though both are exactly alike in all respects except cost!

  30. I love the motel set, such a pretty pattern!
    I order from missguided all the time and even though sometimes the quality isn't amazing, for the price you can't really complain. Their delivery is also pretty fast too and I've never had any problems with them.
    I have that circle skirt too and it is definitely worth the money! :)

  43. love your wishlist, I have an obsession with off-the-shoulder tops too!
    I was looking for a denim skirt too and bought this one from New Look (http://www.newlook.com/shop/womens/skirts/pale-blue-denim-jersey-skater-skirt-_271150745?productFind=search) it's a fraction of the price of the AA version which is always a bonus :) they've only got larger sizes online but I know that they always do the smaller sizes instore :)
    hope you had a lovely pancake day :) xx

  48. I love the white dress!
    I've ordered a few times off Missguided ad I find there sizing is to big for me. Especially with dresses. I have to go for a size smaller!
