Wednesday Wants - Valentines Special!

Wednesday wants has been gone for a while but it's back now with my pick of the best valentines products! Everyone is loved up this week but you can enjoy these whether you've found that special somebody or not.

1) Frog Prince Ballistic - £2.75 from Lush

This cute little froggy smells of jasmine, neroli and rosewood and makes for a perfect aphrodisiac. It also contains cocoa butter and almond oil to leave your skin lovely and moisturised. This can't be bought online anymore but pop into your local lush store and pick up one before they're all gone!






2) Love Dipping Adventure - £17 from Hotel Chocolat

For the perfect romantic night in with your loved one.. or for a luxurious treat for yourself! This is two chocolate dips, one white and one milk, with a variety of bits to dip into them. Simply melt the chocolate dips and then use the biscuits, almonds, truffles and more to dip in them. Mmm bliss. Get one from here.


3) Valentines Cupcake Pyjamas - £7 from Tesco

Any excuse for some new pyjamas right? These are so cute with the heart and cupcake design. I may have to purchase a pair! Get yours here.








4) Heart Sandwich Cutter - £1.99 from Lakeland

Now this is just cute! While you waste quite a bit of sandwich.. the cuteness makes it worth it. I don't know about you but it reminds me of a cheesy romantic comedy where a girl makes her boyfriend some sandwiches and they open their lunch box at work/school and awww.. Get yours here.





5) Spray Heart Raglan - £30 from Topshop

I absolutely love this jumper and wish I could afford it! Its girly but not ridiculously girly and pink. Would be perfect with some grey skinnies and my boots. If you can afford one then get yours from here.








6) Hearts Valentine Mug - £5 from Marks and Spencer

What do you think? The perfect mug for hot chocolate with marshmallows and cream? I think so too! Get yours from here.








7) Cable Heart Hot Water Bottle - £6 from Paperchase

 I absolutely love this. It looks so cosy with the cable knit pattern and the pom poms are lovely too. Get one from here.








8) Fairtrade Divine Chocolate Hearts - £3.29 from Oxfam

 Bestill my heart - romantic and ethical. These beautifully package chocolates are made from cocoa grown by Kuapa Kokoo in Ghana. I love the dark chocolate ones myself but they're also available in milk chocolate. With these you can indulge while knowing you are doing good! Get some from here.







9) Heart Punchout Skinny Belt - £16 from Topshop

Wonderfully girly, this belt is gorgeous. It's a lot more than I would spend on a belt which is a shame because I love everything about it. I especially love the colour. Get yours here.







10) TY Always the Valentine Bear Beanie Baby - £6.95 from Amazon

Who doesn't love a teddy bear on Valentines Day? This little guy is so cute with his rose. If you haven't bought a Valentines present for your loved one yet (and shame on you if you haven't!) then get one of these to surprise them and make up for it! Get it here.

Wednesday Wants - Halloween Special!

So its Halloween this weekend and I am going to show you my pick of the best costumes and other cool halloweeny things!

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.







3) Halloween Box Set - £40 from Enchanted

A box full of seasonal bath products from Enchanted. The scents are all lovely and halloweeny and the box looks amazing. Get one from here.






4) Pumpkin Paper Lantern - £1.99 from Lakeland

How cute would this look in your garden when you're having your halloween party? I love it and its not expensive either! Get yours here.








5) Halloween Crackers - £10 from John Lewis

I have never seen Halloween Crackers before so I was drawn to these in John Lewis yesterday! They are so different, I love them. Get yours 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.






8) Screme Egg - 50p from ASDA

The Screme Egg is just like a Creme Egg but it has green goo instead of orange! Tell me that is not amazing..








9) Rotten Coffin Halloween Prop - £99

An expensive halloween prop but can you imagine your friend's reactions? This is for someone who wants to throw an awesome halloween party where money is no object! Get one from here.







10) Pumpkin Carving Kit - £1.99 from Smiffys

Wednesday Wants

This week winter has really set in so I have got some wednesday wants to cheer us up!

1) Moomin Hot Water Bottle - £12 from Topshop

How cute is this and who doesn't love Moomins? Cuddle up with a Moomin hot water bottle at night and keep toasty warm. Get yours from 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

Well this takes me back to my emo schooldays (only 5 years ago!). I love jumper dresses and I love the cute pattern on this one. Perfect with some wooly tights and some knee length boots for a lovely warm outfit. Get one from here.






4) Venomous Villians Mineralise Eye Shadow Duo - £16 each from MAC

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. It is warming on the skin and the smell lingers all day (especially in the hair!). Chai is only available online as it is a retro Lush item. Get a bottle here.





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.

These are only limited edition so if you want to get yours then pick it up here.

This years christmas Lush will be released on Friday and I plan on telling you all about it then. Until then..
