Wednesday Wants

It's been a hectic week of university work and I barely had time to do my wants! But I worked it out and here they are..


1) Seche Vite Fast Dry Top Coat - £5.95 from Amazon


I really want one of these! I've seen it all over the blogs I read as well as the forum that I frequently go on. Seche Vite protects your nail varnish as well as helping it to dry. I am desperate to get my hands on a bottle of this. Get yours here.






2) Cute Birdie T Shirt - £18 from ASOS

This T Shirt is so me. I adore the design but I do prefer my t shirts to be tighter than this generally. Anyway I'm thinking the outfit that the model has on but with 3/4 length black leggings and some pumps would be a brilliant spring/summer outfit! Get your T Shirt here.







3) Black Multi Square Abstract Print Scarf - £22 from Debenhams

I am a sucker for scarves and have a ridiculous number of the woolly variety. However, once it gets to spring it's too warm to wear my cosy scarves! I turn to this sort of material/style and I own a couple already. This would make an excellent addition to my collection. Get yours here.






4) Off White Pleat Dress - £46 from Topshop

Not my usual style this one, much more elegant! I think it's really pretty though and would love something like this to wear in the summer when it's really warm. Get yours here.







5) Sketchy Monkey Vest and Short - £20 from La Senza

Spring is an excellent time for new pyjamas with the weather getting warmer and the spring cleaning underway! These pyjamas will help you not overheat during the night and look cute but simple at the same time! Get some here.







6) Stripe Longline Top - £16.99 from New Look

I have a top similar to this already in blue. I got it from Primark last year and loved it but it's wearing thin already. I love the shape of this and purple is my favourite colour! Over some black leggings I think this would look awesome. Get yours here.







7) Coral Seedbeed Bangle Pack - £12.50 from Dorothy Perkins

The colours in these bangles go really well together and I think the whole set is absolutely beautiful. Get yours here.








8) Booja-Booja Raspberry Ecuadorian Chocolate Truffles - £4.98 from Goodness Direct

I had some Ginger Wine Booja Booja truffles at Christmas and they were absolutely amazing. These beautiful chocolates are vegan and therefore dairy free which means I can eat them! They're rather expensive (this pack is only 100g) but they are definitely worth it. I now want to try the rest of the flavours so if anyone wants to buy me a pressie.. hint hint! Get a box of your own here.




9) Pastel Collection - £20 from Models Own

I've not had the chance to try this brand yet and have heard some good reviews. There are a few boxsets on the website that are total bargains and this is the one I want. Pastels are the colours I want to wear when it gets to this time of year! Check them out here.

10) Tonal Spot Red Dinner Plate - £6 from Whittards

I always imagine my own kitchen full of snazzy china from Whittards! I always ramble on about their patterned mugs and teapots but the plates are pretty awesome too. Get one of these here.

wednesday wants

Yep it's that time of the week again! Here are the things I wish I could have:

1) Illusion Aztec Nail Polish - £4 from Accessorize

I very nearly bought this yesterday but decided not to after all the nail varnish bargains I got on Monday. The colour is amazing and is multi-tonal so looks very different. The only problem with this one was that the lid is actually larger than the bottle! I expected the bottle to be slightly bigger for the price which may be what put me off. However, the beautiful colour more than makes up for that. Get yours from your local superdrug or online here.





2) Teal Blue Nail Varnish - £1.50 from ELF

I got an email from ELF the other day telling me about their four new nail varnish colours and this is the one that caught my eye. I adore the colour and hope it's not limited edition because I might need some new eyeliners soon and maybe then I can justify a spare £1.50.. if you can justify it sooner you can get it here.






3) China Glaze Crackle Glaze Nail Polish in Lightning Bolt - £8.95 from Amazon

I know.. nail varnish again. I'm totally addicted at the moment. One of my favourites is the Barry M crackle polish and I think that this white version would make a great addition to my collection. Especially for the summer! Get yours here.







4) 50s Dress Big Polka Dot Halterneck Dress - £22.99 from Dresses Tiger Milly

Look at this beautiful dress. I wouldn't even have a place to wear this to but it doesn't stop me lusting after it. I'm thinking red heels and bright red lipstick... Get one here.








5) Skin Sin Body Lotion - £8.50 for 250g from Lush

I vaguely remember trying this when it was still in Lush stores but it was discontinued not long afterwards. It recently became available on the Lush website in Retro Lush. This lotion smells just like cherries which (as I keep mentioning) is my favourite fragrance. Get yours from here.






6)Brain Tablets Necklace - £10 from Shottle Bop

 I think I could do with some of these brain tablets "For when your brain don't work proper, and all your thinks are wrong". Maybe this necklace would give me some luck when I'm taking exams? Or maybe not. But it is pretty! Get yours here.







7)Easy Smokey Eye Gift Set - £14.25 from Eyeko

A bargain set which costs 20% less than buying the products individually! This comes with a mascara, liquid eyeliner pen and an eyeliner pencil with two colours. All products I would use over and over again! Get yours here.







8) Russell Howard Ladies College Tour T-Shirt - £15 from Russell Howard Merchandise Site

This isn't really a want.. more like a have because I bought it this morning! I was so caught up getting my Ocean Colour Scene and MCR T shirts that I didn't think of the other gig I went to that week... Get yours here.







9) Disney Alice In Wonderland DVD - £12.99 from Play

After seeing my friend's Disney DVD collection I have realised that mine is pretty rubbish! A lot of my Disney films are still on VHS but I actually don't have this one at all. Which is weird because I love Alice In Wonderland! Get your copy here.







10) Ladies Bobble Jumper - £16 from Peacocks


So simple and yet so cute... I love this jumper. I'm thinking skinnies and pumps for a simple and slightly emo look! Get yours here.

Look at these pretties! I've seen these on lots of blogs recently and really want some of my own. They are perfect colours for the summer. Get yours here.




2)  Etchy Heart Knit Jumper - £21.99 from New Look

While spring is on its way, it's still cold enough to wear jumpers! I think this one is really cute and girly in an understated way. It's lovely and I think I would get a lot of wear out of it! Get one here.









3) My Chemical Romance T Shirt - £13.99 from Amazon

I couldn't afford a T Shirt when I went to see My Chemical Romance last week which is a shame because I love having a T Shirt from each gig I go to. I think I'll be getting one of these even if it is too late! You can get one too from here.



 



4) Ocean Colour Scene Mosely Shoals T Shirt - £18 from MAM


Same reason as above for this one! I'm definately going to be getting one of these when my money goes in! Get one from here.









5) Love Solid Perfume - £7 from Lush


This is an absolute must have for me! I absolutely love this fragrance and have the small sample vial from when it was in B Never. It is also the same fragrance as Love soap from a few years ago and Fizzbanger Ballistic from the current range. Cinnamony, appley goodness mmm. Get one here.











6) Winnie The Pooh Tea for One Teapot - £18.75 from Whittards

How pretty is this? I always drink tea on my own so a teapot for one is perfect for me. I love the shape of it as well and it is a bargain at £18.75 instead of £25! Get one here!









7) Crayon Pen - £3.99 from I Want One Of Those

Major love for these pens! Just look at them, they are amazing. Get one for your own from here.








8)Gothic Mickey Mouse T Shirt - £60 from Disney


Gothic and Disney, not two words I would usually put together! This T shirt is just amazing. I love the diamantes that make Mickeys face, I love the colours and I love the grumpy look on his face! I do not however love the price.. get one from here.






9) Peace Studs Belt - £9 from Claire's
I love this belt a whole lot. It appeals to my inner hippy! I wish I could head down to Claire's and snap one up but I can't. You guys can though!







10) Betty Rouched Bow Brown Leopard Ballerina Pumps - £22 from Accessorize

I used to be addicted to different designs of Ballerina Pumps and the addiction never totally left me. How pretty are these? They would be perfect in the summer with some skinny jeans and a nice floaty top! Get a pair from here.

1) Malice in Wonderland Costume -£39
I love Alice In Wonderland but I love this more gothic version even more! It is £39 for the dress only so you would have to buy the wig, socks, shoes and dagger yourself which would probably work out quite expensive. Everyone will love it though! Get yours here.







2) Calacas Shower Jelly - £2.95 from Lush

This is the limited edition Day of the Dead shower jelly and it smells like limes and jelly beans. You can also get it in yellow or orange and it really is lovely. Get yours at a lush shop or from here.

6) Sinister Poiret Clown Costume - £17.99

This is the costume that I had originally chosen for Halloween but I wont be able to buy my costume until Friday and that is too late to order this online! It comes with the dress, neck piece and hat so you would have to buy stockings, armwarmers, a wig and make up to get the full effect. Get yours here.






7) Chocolate Halloween Lollies - 69p each or 3 for 2 from Thorntons

Thorntons have got some lovely cute chocolate lollies at 69p each and 3 for 2 at the moment. My favourite is this skeleton, he's gorgeous! Get yours instore or here.

2) Rocket Dog Faux Fur Boots - £99 from Littlewoods

Don't these look cosy and wintery? I had a similar pair from Primark last year but they didn't last very long. I think it might be time to invest in a pair of Rocket Dogs! Get yours here.







3) Cartoon Skull Tunic - £21.99 from New Look

Mac have just released their Venomous Villians Disney Collection and this is the product which interests me most. The colours are awesome and wintery and I love the design. Check out the rest of the collection here.



5) Maddy V Neck Cardigan - £50 from Monsoon

Some cardigans are practical but make you look chunky and a bit silly! This chocolate coloured cardigan has a very flattering cut and I love the length of it too as it can be easily worn with leggings. Get one here.







6) Alice in Wonderland Mad Hatter Mug - £10 or 2 for £16 at Whittards

I love Alice In Wonderland and I especially love the Mad Hatter. This mug encapsulates the magical story without being garish and childish. There is a whole set of these on the Whittards website and I think they are beautiful. Perfect for drinking your cocoa out of on a cold winter night Get one here.





7) Teal & Gold Fulia Silk Scarf - £28 from Traidcraft

I'm not sure how warm this scarf would be so it might not be very practical but look how pretty it is! You might think that £28 is expensive for a scarf but this is handmade in India by a lady called Sasha. Read about her and buy your own scarf here.







8) Chai Shower Gel - £12.50 from Lush

Chai is my winter staple from Lush but unfortunately I haven't had any money to order it yet! It is a gorgeous spicy shower gel that smells like Chai tea.

9) Long Sleeve Tunic - £34.99 from River Island

This top is just lovely. I really like the style and the colour, it would brighten up those winter days! If you like it as much as I do then get one from here.







10) Soup Maker - £138.99 from Lakeland

I love making homemade soup in the winter but often don't have time to do it all. This machine looks amazing because it chops, boils, simmers and blends. It basically carries out all of the soup making steps and at the end you have some gorgeous homemade soup. I can't in any way afford this but I can dream! If you can then get one from here.
