Topshop Ripped Jamie Jeans

I love these jeans and Topshop jeans are my fave anyway, i wanted to share these with you.



I had seen these in the shop, but i couldn't justify £42 even if i do love Topshop Jeans. These are the Jamie Ripped jeans. I dont think that they sell these specific ones anymore, but they always have similar ones in. These are a lovely mid blue toned denim, the rips are in a lovely place and not too distressed. There is also a little bit of distressing on the pocket and the top of the leg. These are very comfortable and i recommend Topshop jeans to anyone.

Michael Kors Rhea Backpack Review

I have been wanting a Michael Kors backpack for over a year or two and with the £310 price tag, but i didn't realize that Michael Kors had a summer sale, so i checked out what colours etc were in the sale and i found this beauty.



This is the Michael Kors Rhea Backpack White and Black, There was quite a couple of colours to choice from like sky blue and coral, but after a long hard think i went for this one as they are more colours that would go with everything. This is the medium size which i think is just normal size,this is the biggest one they do. I can get my essentials and a little extra. This cost £142 which i know is alot of money for a handbag, but this is one that is more practical. It was reduced from £155, i even rang up the designer outlet to see if they had any and they said they would never get any of the Rhea style in, so this made me more determined to get it. I have got a couple of trips lined up over this summer so i thought it would be the best time to get it.

I brought this in the Liverpool store, they were all lovely and helped me pick the right colour and size,I used it there and then i couldn't wait for the next trip. It has three sections the very front section cant hold alot of of things probably like a pair of in ear headphones or a bit of change, its more for design than anything else. The second one is alot bigger i keep my sunglasses and anti bacterial gel in there as i dont want to put too much in so it looses its shape. The biggest section i put my purse phone in and i keep my keys on a key chain inside the bag so they dont get lost. I can also put in a jacket or cardigan if its cool out. This bag is so practical and its a great bag, every time i use the bag i clean it all with a baby wipe and put it back in the dust bag and store it. This keeps the leather clean and as of yet there has been no marks on the bag.

New Look Lace Up Sandals

I have wanted some lace up sandals for a while but they are either too high or look uncomfortable, so when i went into New Look i spotted these but they cost £34.99 which is a little too much, but when i checked on Asos they were in the sale and i have free next day delivery and i love them.




They do these in Black and Tan, i went for the black as i love the contrast from the tan on the bottom. These cost me around £20 which was okay as i was looking at some in River Island that cost around £40. I wore these to my friends birthday meal, i had them on all day and they didn't rub,which i thought they would tbh. They dont have much height which for me is great as i am already nearly 6ft. These are the perfect lace up shoes for the summer with a dress or jeans and a smart shirt, but they can also be dressed down with t shirt and jeans.

If you are looking for a pair check out New Look(or New Look on Asos) as they do flats and heels,best place for shoes in my opinion.

Zara Haul.

Yesterday i went to Zara which is rare for me as the nearest Zara is about 30 miles away, i love their basic t shirts and i wanted a new pair of dark denim shorts so i brought some!




Starting with the top, i own quite a couple of Zara Basic Tees and they are lovely quality for the price. I am loving Khaki green and as soon as i saw this top i wanted it. It was £5.99 which is a great price and is a lovely shade too, also the back is longer than the front and would look great with black jeans. They also do it in black,grey,white and stripes and i want to get more. I got this in a size S, i tried the M on and i didn't like the fit.



I have been looking for a pair of dark denim shorts, as i am tall i find it difficult to find shorts that are not too short.Also the weather in the UK has been really warm so i have only 1 pair of denim shorts which are light. But these are the perfect length, they are a lovely stretchy material. They also sell these in a light wash and white. The wash of these are lovely and haven't got too much distressing on them. I would recommend getting these as they are lovely shorts and only cost £17.99 which is a great price again. I got these in a size uk 12 which is a nice fit.




I hope you enjoyed this post, i have been uploading videos on my youtube channel and hopefully there will be one a week on there, so please go and check it out and subscribe as it is free! My social medias as always are linked below,

Trentham Gardens/OOTD

So we went on a day out to Trentham Gardens on a lovely summers day, so i took some pictures and wanted to show you guys just how beautiful it is, i also took some outfit pictures, so its an all rounder!

I decided to get an annual pass as we live not too far from there,which only works out at £28.00 each for a 12 month pass which is great. So just three adult day passes equal to that amount.

I went a walk round the whole lake,seeing rowers on the lake, dog walkers and beautiful views of nature.We then stopped for an ice cream and a rest, i choose a salted caramel(which may i add was absolutely delicious), they also had a range of other flavors too.

The gardens are absoultey beautiful and well kept with a range of different flowers but the tulips were amazing and on such a beautiful day the colours were even more vibrant.


The lakes are stunning, you can hear and we even saw the monkeys in the monkey forest, which is also part of Trentham Gardens(have to pay extra entry price). The ducks were out on the lake with there ducklings and were really cute. There are lots of seats and picnic benches to have a rest or have a picnic(like we did thanks auntie)











On to the outfit as it was a warm day i was undecided on what to wear but i finally decided(after lots of trying on clothes and trashing my wardrobe). The t shirt is from Asos and is called the swing tee, these are such a lovely fit and hide your stomach if that is your problem area.My jeans are from Topshop and are the Lucas jeans so comfortable atm they are the only jeans i wear as soon as they come out of the wash they are worn again! My trainers are the Nike juvenates in wolf grey I have done a review of these on a previous post (link) so comfortable! My cardigan i got from New look last year and is a midi style, love this and great to throw on in the summer. My bag is from Longchamp and i 
LOVE IT. My sunglasses are £3 from Primark.

Nike Juvenate Review

I brought these after only hearing nothing but good things about these trainers and the also look lovely on. So i brought these off the Nike website (UK) as they are on sale for £42.99 and then i had an extra 20% off code(here is the link to the promo website that i used) there are a variety off different colours. I got grey and black which are classic colours. I was originally only going to get the black pair but then i would of had to pay shipping so i decided to order both which i am glad i did.


The trainers are like walking with just socks on. These are fabulous for walking long distances or if you out shopping for the day. The top of the trainers is like a mesh material, but dont get your feet wet if it does rain. I love the spots on the top i think it adds a lovely dimension to the trainers. You dont have to wear socks with these, but sometimes i wear pop socks. These would be great for the summer as if the holes in the trainers lets air to your feet, but in the winter if you wear socks this wouldn't occur so you get the best of both worlds!



The black is lovely goes with everything and are super classy. Lovely with an all black outfit or a black top and denim colour jeans. The black tick is also black which i think adds class to the shoe, rather than the white. The grey are lovely also the tick is a darker grey than the whole shoe which i love, lovely with a grey jumper and khaki jeans. The white on the bottom of the trainers is a lovely touch.

So overall i would recommend these trainers to everyone, although i dont think they are worth £72 which is there RRP. But if you can get them discounted they are definitely worth it.

Topshop Quilted Jacket Review

When I had seen this jacket on the Topshop models I instantly wanted it but at the £70 price tag I was unable to afford it but I managed to get a second hand one of a app called Vinted.


I managed to get this coat for £30 including postage and it hasn't been worn many times. This is a great winter/autumn and spring coat, It can be layered with a jumper underneath or just with a t-shirt. I have a coat very similar to this from New look and I wear it all the time.


This coat is made from a really thick material it wouldn't split if you caught it on a door handle for example. The fur on the hood is really soft and is NOT REAL fur. The arms are cuffed at the ends so it will keep you insulated and warm.



There are two pockets either side one which is zipped and another with a button. This is great as they are both a reasonable size and can store lose items in the zipped pockets. The zip pocket and button pocket both fit an IPhone 6 for reference with plenty of room left in the zip pocket for change.

The only thing for me as they are a little tight fitting I got a size UK 10 which was the only size I could get hold of so if you want it a little looser then order it in a size larger. It also a bit short on me as I'm 6'0 so bare this in mind if you are tall like me. But I believe this is the design of them anyway.

The coat is hard to get hold of as online as I am writing this they only have size 4 available but check on the stock checker type in your postcode and see if they have it in your size in one of your local stores. Also keep checking online daily as they get returned items and re stock it onto the website.

Overall I think it is worth the £70 price tag and if you have student discount you get £7 off it. But if you can get it second hand of eBay its great. The quality is fabulous and is a lovely warm but fashionable coat that never goes out of style.

Topshop Mid Season Sale Haul.



I'm back blogging, I've had a lot of time of but i'm back. Also its my 18th birthday on the 22nd of march so there will be post about that also.

But today i am doing a Topshop sale haul which let me add i got MANY bargains. I ordered two of these items online and the rest i brought in store. So go and check out your local store to see what they have to offer.

I will start with tops,firstly i purchased is the Salt and Pepper Tunic. This top is made from the most gorgeous fabric and is really comfortable and no itchy material which was what i was worried about. The top is a long line top with a split, it is also the same in the sleeves which i didn't realize because i find that a little uncomfortable. But my mums going to sew it up and for the price its amazing it was a whole £5 and was originally £36.(online)


Link
  
The last top i purchased was a stripped roll neck top, i had seen this when it was full price but i couldn't justify £28 for it but when i had seen it at my local store for £5 in my size i was overjoyed.

Link

Next to bottoms I brought 3 pairs of jeans the first are a pair from there tall range in the Jamie ripped style these are so comfortable and are a grey colour. These were only £5 instead of £42 which is a bargain. (I unfortunately i am unable to find the link but if these come back in stock i will update the post)

Topshop Moto 'Jamie' Ripped Ankle Skinny Jeans (Black) (Regular, Short & Long)

I then also got another pair of Jamie jeans but from the regular line. These are a charcoal grey going on black colour with one simple clean rip, I have been after some for ages but again didn't want to pay the full price. These were £15 instead of £42. (Again i am unable to find the link)







The last pair of jeans is a pair of mid wash ripped Leigh jeans. You can tell i'm loving the ripped jeans atm. I got these online for £22 instead of £42 which is the highest priced item but i thought it was worth it. I love these so comfortable and great for spring and summer as they are a thinner fabric than the Jamie jeans.(online)


Link



The last bottoms are these gorgeous black crochet shorts and these were £3 instead of £25 i don't even know why these were in the sale. I think they were marked up wrong in the store as when i got to the till they said £25 still. These are amazing great quality and great for holidays or the rare hot days we get here in the UK. Online they are £15 which is still a great price for these shorts.(link underneath)


Last of all this is one of my favorites, i got this towel like material lined dressing gown for £3! yes £3. There were loads at my store but when i went back to get another they were all gone. These are very lightweight and great for summer. I got mine in a medium which is slightly big and i'm a 12 in most items of clothing. It is almost like a spa robe and would be great to use at the pool of a hotel or at home when you get out of the bath or shower. 


Link

So that's it i managed to get lots of bargains online and in store. I will be uploading on a Monday,Wednesday and Friday as i am now back blogging. To keep updated about my blog posts add my blog link and you will be notified, i will also link my social media accounts so you can go follow me on there.

River island Tan suede Boots|Fashion Friday

I have been going into River Island these past few months and saying I love these boots every time I go in and I decided to finally buy them.They also do these in a lovely grey/black shade but I thought I have enough black boots and went for the tan instead.





They are so comfortable and has a lovely gold zip detail and easy to get on. They are great quality and cost £45 which is good for a pair of boots.These are currently unavailable online so pop down to your local store to see if they have them in stock.





The only time you couldn't wear these is if it was raining or snowing as they would get ruined. I'm hoping to film a look book or d a blogpost and feature these in the video or post.

I hope you enjoyed this post and happy Halloween for tomorrow! I post every Monday,Wednesday and Friday at 10:00 am GMT. I also link my social Media's down below and my YouTube channel if you would like to check them out and hope you continue to follow my blog. Thanks Alice x

Michael Kors watch|Fashion Friday

I brought this watch back in April for my birthday and I love it. I have been wanting a Michael Kors watch for years and when I discovered that they sold them on Amazon for around £100 I thought I would buy one with my birthday money.





I decided to get a silver one as silver is timeless and I only really wear silver jewellery. It has a pearl affect on the face and is absolutely gorgeous. I did have to have I think 4 links taken out which cost £10 but its well worth it and fits correctly.





I did have a problem with it though it started to stop and skip time but I contacted the people and they repaired it for me and was sent to America and came back within 2 weeks. I did have to pay for postage there but they paid for the watch to be fixed and the return postage. It comes with a 2 year warranty which is great if you had problems like I did.

I think that they don't sell mine any more but they have plenty of others on there.

I hope you enjoyed this post. I post every Monday,Wednesday and Friday at 10:00 am GMT. I also link my social Media's down below and my YouTube channel if you would like to check them out and hope you continue to follow my blog. Thanks Alice x

Michael Kors Purse|Fashion Friday

I love going into Tkmaxx as you never know what you are going to find and in the Technology section of tkmaxx there was aload of Michael Kors items but this was the best off the lot. It did cost £39.99 but is a purse aswell as a phone case.





I think officially it is called the Jet set wallet and retails at around £110. It fits credit cards in and also points cards. It has a middle slot for your phone if you wanted everything in one place which is great. I love the black with gold hardware and they also do these in a variety of colours and patterns.







I hope you enjoyed this post. I post every Monday,Wednesday and Friday at 10:00 am GMT. I also link my social Media's down below and my YouTube channel if you would like to check them out and hope you continue to follow my blog. Thanks Alice x

Autumn Ootd|Fashion Friday

This blog post was supposed to go up last Friday but the weather was awful so I couldn't take the pictures. But yesterday was a beautiful day and not like autumn at all but here is my Autumn Ootd.

















Outfit Info:

My coat is from Topshop Link and is called the split back duster coat. This coat is great for this time of year as it is a lightweight coat but with layers it will keep you warm in the winter

My jumper is from Zara and I got it from a charity shop for around £3 which is great its a lovely dark navy and is a roll neck which is one of my favourite style of jumpers to wear as I think they suit me.

My Jeans are also from Topshop Link these are great quality and wear them every day so comfortable for jeans and love the rip detail.

My boots are from Topshop(surprise surprise)I got these either late last year or early this year from the topshop sale they are real leather and I think they cost me £7 which is a complete bargain. They are so comfortable to wear and good quality leather.

My bag is from Burberry and I love it this is probably one of my best buys from a charity shop ever I paid £3!!!! yes £3 whole British pounds for a mulberry bag and I love it to death!

My watch is from Michael Kors and is the pearlesent effect watch I love it and brought it with my birthday money early this year.

My rings are both from Pandora one is the March Birthstone Link which is the month of my birthday and the other is a cute floral print design Link which I got when a chain that used to stock Pandora had a sale. 

My sunglasses are from Dorothy Perkins I got these last week in the sale for £3 and i just think the style suits me and they came in a cute pink sparkly bag to keep them in!

Fashion Friday| Victoria Secret

I have been wanting to visit a Victoria secret for ages but nearest  one is about an hour and a half away. So when I went to the carboot sale last Sunday there was a Victoria secret tote bag. I asked her how much she wanted for it and she said a £1 which I couldn't believe.





This is the typical colours of Victoria secret and has Victoria secret written in jewels which I think is a nice touch. The bag is so soft and almost feels like silk. This would be a great over night bag as you can fit plenty of things in the bag. I don't know how much it would of cost originally but I would expect it to be expensive. It would also work great as a shopper bag as now in the uk we are going to be getting charged for carrier bags.

Some of the jewels have come off but I don't really mind and you can only see if you are up close. The bag inside is lined in pink and doesn't have any pockets unfortunately but can be done up with a single fastener.

Hope you enjoyed and continue to follow my blog. My social media sites will be linked down below thanks Alice x

Fashion Friday|Michael Kors Jet Set Mini Tote Bag Review

I love this bag and got it a couple of months back. I got it from tkmaxx because in the past year they have started to stock Michael Kors in there which is great as they are at a discounted and more affordable price even cheaper than the outlets here in the UK. I have even seen the Selema bags at £129 which is great. Going back to this bag I went into tkmaxx and it was on the hanging stand with aload of other bags I saw the Michael Kors logo there was this one and 2 snakeskin print which I wasn't too keen on and this was a bargain at £34 and It fits all of my essentials in.  


(Michael Kors Mini Jet Set Tote)
It fits my phone in which is an iPhone 6,my mini Michael Kors purse which I also got in Tkmaxx to match this bag and it was £12.99 and my sunglasses. It also has card slots in the inside of the bag and has the Mk label as the material inside the bag. It is black with gold hardware and also has an non adjustable strap which could be a problem. But I am nearly 6ft and is okay length on me. There is a gold chain and then the same material as the bag.



I just love this bag as I don't like to have a big bag and just to take the essentials with me. If you like a bigger bag then maybe not go for this but I would be great on a night out.

Fashion Friday|Topshop Tall Grey Frill Jumper

I brought this jumper a while back in spring in the sale for £10 its gorgeous. It mixes both simple but comfort in one. I basically forgot I brought this as it was becoming summer time. So I rediscovered it the other week when I was swapping my summer to autumn clothing and I was in my element when I found it!.


(Posey picture of the jumper on)

This is in a size 10 but it is huge for a size 10 and I would say that someone who is a size 14 could wear a 10. I really only brought it as in the topshop we were in don't stock Tall but it has turned out to be one of my favourite autumn key pieces. The material is like a thin sweat and the frill on the bottom is in like a cotton material. In the winter I would probably wear a vest top underneath and a coat over the top. 


I am going to be doing an autumn OOTD soon on my blog where this jumper will feature in it so keep your eyes peeled. Alice x
