Designed by Nature Gingko leaves Silver ring*

Tuesday, 26 January 2016

Not so long ago myself and the lovely people at Designed By Nature got talking about their stunning designs, they create lovely pieces of jewellery based on beautiful flowers and nature itself. I am a big lover of flowers and anything related to greenery (especially if I can keep it in my room and feature it in an insta post) and when I got the chance to be sent an unusual yet elegant item from their shop I just couldn’t say no.

Jewellery is a fairly big part of my everyday life, there is not a day that goes by when I go jewellery free. I just don’t do it. I wanted to pick an item that would compliment other jewellery and go well with a range of clothes. My staple jewellery colour hands down has to be silver, I’m not a huge fan of gold I feel like it doesn’t go well with my skin tone, whereas because I’m super pale silver compliments my skin tone.

I asked to be sent the Gingko leaves adjustable silver ring, this is a beautiful ring that will fit anyone’s finger due to the front of it not being connected. This ring is made out of sterling silver and has two leaves facing each other in the shape of a fan, they are lovely and the attention to detail is exquisite even down to the tiny folds in the leaves themselves. Since this ring has arrived I have not taken it off, its perfect for everyday use but it is also elegant and classy making it fab for formal events too!

The quality is amazing and I absolutely love it! Thanks Designed by nature!

Mini BooHoo t-shirt haul

Monday, 11 January 2016

I love this time of year, everywhere has sales, even the online shops that have sales anyway but this time of year, they’re twice as big. I have a new found love for online shopping at the moment, especially on BooHoo, as you will know if you are one of the amazing people follow me on twitter. When I was most recently surfing the internet for cute products at minuscule prices I stumbled across 3 T-shirts that I looked at and thought “I NEED THESE IN MY LIFE WITH £1.99 NEXT DAY DELIVERY.” And so, I bought them.

Simple but sweet
The first t-shirt I purchased is a very simple but cute top, it is insanely soft, like, I can’t even explain. This t-shirt is plain white for the main body, BORING you might be thinking but I disagree, because the detailing on each hem of the product adds a stylish edge to this “plain white t”. Around the neck and arm holes of the shirt and the bottom hem there is a small black piece of fabric, really making the top stand out for me. Also due to it being black and white, IT GOES WITH EVERYTHING so why wouldn’t you want this shirt? Especially at the price of £4

Not your Babe
This top is another white top with black detailing, but this time it’s a small piece of text on the left breast of the t-shirt. The words simply say “Not your babe”. One of my pet peeves is when people who don’t even know me call me babe, there is an extensive list of examples, such as bus drivers, shop assistants, bouncers and creepy peeps on the street. I simply HAD to buy it at £5.

The F word
The final top of this mini haul is the exact opposite of white, black. This is a simple t-shirt with a slogan printed on the front in big, white, capital letters. It simple reads Fashion is my second favourite F word (my first, of course, is food. Duh).But seriously I thought this t-shirt was perfect for me, I saw it online, giggled and then simply clicked add to basket without a second thought. I thought this was a brilliant everyday shirt for when you’re at home/ college/ uni or simply just running errands, definitely worth £6.
