Exclusive | Boohoo Nights collection

Boohoo are in the process of launching their amazing new Nights collection and i am lucky enough to be showing you first hand some of their exclusive pictures from their new range some of which are already available to purchase on Boohoo. The Collection offers a range of envy inducing dresses and statement making separates, all which are so perfect for nights out and party wear!


Boohoo have always been my go to store for their really reasonable prices and on trend pieces. This collection is no different and nothing costs more than £35 which is amazing! I definitely have my eye on a lot of the new items. Below are some of my absolute favourites!


Nadine Embellished cut out detail bodycon dress £35 | Link

I absolutely adore this dress and its definitely one of my favourites from the collection, probably because of the pastel pink contrasted with the white, it reminds me of ice cream like colours,the delicate cut out and embellishment is so pretty as well. For only £35 this is the perfect evening dress for spring/summer.

Claudia heavily embellished mini skirt £25 | Link

Again this skirt is amazing! For about 3 years now i have wanted an All saints embellished skirt but sadly the price tag of almost £200 does not fit in with my budget. I honestly don't think this version looks any different to the All Saints one, if anything it looks better and for £25 its such a steal!

Jen high neck sequin shift dress £20 | Link

This dress showcases my love of pastels and sequins to a new level! Boohoo have got this spot on, the high neck of it is different to what we've already seen and the white panelling on the bottom separates the block pastel beautifully! For only £20.. HELLO bargain of the century!

Katie suedette peeptoa metallic heels £30 | Link

These are my favourite shoes from their current collection, i love the suede look and although they are said to be nude colour they seem more pastel pink to me so of course i'm going to love them, they will go so well with the rest of my pastel clothing!

Jan sequin wrap skater dress £30 | Link

Last up from their collection that is one i definitely need to add to the wishlist is this stunning skater dress! Firstly i love the aqua blue colour which is a perfect colour for the upcoming months, the fit of the dress and how it falls is really flattering and again its covered in sequins so im sold haha! 

Its safe to say i need EVERYTHING from this collection! The collection hasn't fully launched yet so do make sure to check back in time as there are many more stunning items to come! 

 What do you think of their Boohoo's new collection? Which is your favourite item?

OOTD | English Rose








Jumper - Romwe
Jeans - New Look
Shoes - Primark
Nails - Barry M silk Heather

Its Friday!! I hope you've all had a lovely week, i'm heading home back to Plymouth today which i'm so excited about as i haven't really had a chance to go back home since Christmas, technically my Easter will be spent doing my dissertation and all of my other assignments but its still going to be really good and relaxing!

Yesterday the weather was rubbish and i just about managed to get some pictures before the rain set in for the day. I bought this oversized jumper from Romwe last year, it looks so much like a Wildfox one but minus the price tag! I love the webbed end of the sleeves and at the bottom of the jumper, its such a cute casual look for spring/summer. I always get loads of compliments when i wear this as well which is an added bonus! I'm wearing my favourite shoes from Primark again too, its hard to believe that something so pretty could cause SO much pain though! I have permanent blisters if i wear them and i dont see it ending anytime soon, anyone else get this problem with their favourite shoes?!

Thanks for reading, i hope you all have a great weekend! What do you think of this outfit? Have you shopped in Romwe before?

OOTD | Milk maid braid












Dress - Topshop
Jeans - H&M
Bag - Asos
Socks - Topshop
jelly sandals - Primark
Sunglasses - Urban Outfitters
Nails - Models own hyper gel cornflower gleam

I bought this dress/top from Topshop last summer and am still obsessed with the colour and detailing of it, i usually wear this as a dress in the summer as its fairly short but it definitely wasn't warm enough to do that the other day so i wore my white skinny jeans with it and it definitely works as a top too! I'm trying to make the most out of the clothes i do have in my wardrobe before buying a load more because there are so many things i think I've only worn once which is such a waste! Nothing compares to new clothes though hey? I'm also LOVING the new hyper gel range from models own, they have a super shiny finish and they last for quite a few days without the damage or hassle of getting gels done! Anyone else tried them?


Having long hair i really should make more effort with it than i normally do as i usually just shove it up in a pony but i love pretty plaits and braids and so this was my first attempt at a milk maid braid after seeing a video of Zoe London doing it on Instagram, i had to have a go as it looked so easy! I am so pleased with the outcome and surprised that it stayed up all day, this will be a great hairstyle in the summer with the warmer weather as it keeps it out of your face all day. However, i think i need to work on tidying up the presentation of it at the back! But its not bad for a first attempt! What do you think?

What do you think of this outfit? Do you like pastels? Do you like milk maid braids?

Mothers Day gift ideas | Fragrance Direct

With Mothers Day just under a week away now i wanted to share with you some gorgeous perfume gift sets which would make ideal presents for all of your lovely mothers, i always try to appreciate what my mum does for me every day but its always great to spoil her as much as you can on this special day! These two perfume gifts sets that i will be sharing with you are from Fragrance Direct who stock fragrances, makeup,skincare and more, so if perfume isn't something your mum particularly uses there are many other things to choose from!


Marc Jacobs Dot Gift Set 50ml Fragrance Direct £44.99* 

This Marc Jacobs gift set comes with the 50ml Dot Eau de parfum spray, 75ml Dot radiant body lotion and 75ml of the Dot fresh shower gel. I love gift sets which include all 3 because the perfume combined with either the shower gel or body lotion really helps to prolong the smell.

Firstly lets appreciate how absolutely amazing the packing of both the perfume and the shower gel and body lotion are! A lady bird first springs to mind with the specific colours and dots! The bottle is probably one of the prettiest that i have ever seen, it definitely helps with the overall appeal of buying the perfume in the first place, i for one definitely think the packaging determines whether i buy something or not!

The fragrance of Dot is a lush and fruity floral scent. The scents in the perfume 'captivate with a delectable blend of red berries, succulent dragon fruit, and sweet honeysuckle. The lush floral heart of the fragrance blooms with addictive jasmine mingled with energising notes of coconut water and orange blossom. The scent rounds out with a feminine dry down of creamy vanilla, driftwood, and sensual musks'. It really is such a gorgeous fruity scent for spring and summer and as described it contains lots of different scents and i found the lasting power of it was really good which is something i always look for in a perfume. I'm also a fan of the other Marc Jacobs fragrances especially Daisy, Fragrance direct also stocks the other gift sets of the Marc Jacobs range too if those fragrances are more of your mums cup of tea!


Nina Ricci Ricci Gift Set 50ml Fragrance Direct £36.95* 

The Nina Ricci Ricci gift set includes the 50ml Ricci Ricci Eau de parfum and the audacious body lotion of the scent. Again i love combining a body lotion with the perfume as the scent really gets a chance to sink into your skin and last for longer.

The packaging again is so pretty and especially of the bottle, i love the rich plum shade of the perfume bottle and the gorgeous detailing of ribbon on the top of the bottle. Its really simplistic with the one colour used throughout but its very effective and elegant.

This beautiful scent is another which is perfect for spring and summer and it composes of a medley of floral freshness. The scent can be described as 'featuring top notes of Rhubarb zest and bergamot. Heart notes feature moonflower,Indian Tuberose and Centifolia Rose while base notes boost patchouli and sandalwood'. Again the lasting smell of this is great and i got loads of compliments wearing this, my usual fragrances usually lose their smell after an hour, so i am very impressed!

Both of these perfumes and gift sets are the perfect fragrances for spring with their floral and juicy secents, they will also look amazing on anyones dressing or makeup table! Fragrance Direct stock these as well as many other beautiful scents if you're looking for one for your mum for mothers day! Other ideas for Mothers Day that i have in mind if you are on a budget and want to be bit more creative are homemade hampers which could be themed, such as a pamper one or just simply filled with all the things that your mum loves, others things could be a homemade afternoon tea, a day trip somewhere, a collage of all of your pictures together, there really are so many great ideas if you're on a budget, having a look at pinterest is great for inspiration too!


What do you think of these perfume gift sets? Whats your favourite perfume? What are you buying for Mothers Day?
