FASHION: ASOS TOP PICKS


I've been hearing lots of people rave on about Asos and how good everything is at the moment so I thought i'd have a little browse at some bits and pieces. I've picked out just a few items that i'm loving right now. First of all these cute ankle grazers, i've never had a pair before because i'm so short however because asos have their petite range I recon I could get a pair that would actually sit above my ankles. I'm loving grey right now so I picked out this jumper, it's so slouchy and looks so comfy, but with some jeans and heels I think it would look so nice for a meal out or shopping. I love orange, I already have an amazing orange bag from Zara, but this clutch is gorgeous. I love how a bright bag can brighten up any outfit. I love wearing black and grey so this is just a perfect bag and would go with so many different outfits. I seem to be loving trainers at the moment, i've joined the gym and really want a pair of Nike running shoes, they have some really unique colours and patterns. I love these ones with the lime trim from Asos. I love shopping on Asos because you get free delivery and theres always some kind of discount code floating around.
Theres always discount codes on Fashion Beans, they always have codes for Asos, River Island and many more.
I'm on a spending ban right now because i'm off to Florida in like 7 weeks! I'm so excited, so i'm saving for that but send over your Asos wish lists i'd love to see them.

TED BAKER WASH BAG IN MINT


TED BAKER WASH BAG - £25.00 - http://www.tedbaker.com/


I love my Ted Baker wash bag, I thought i's share it with you as i'm taking it on holiday. I use this as my make up bag, it's a very generous size and fits all my make up in it.

I had my eye on this lovely mint bow wash bag and I was so happy when Clint bought it for me.

Its a great size and you can just wipe away any marks you may get on it. I love the mint colour - I think its a very on trend colour this season.

I'm a massive Ted Baker fan since Clint bought me my purse for my 21st, I love their amazing patterns and colours. They have some lovely bits and pieces - I especially love their swimwear which is gorgeous!

I would never normally spend £25 on a make up bag, I did get student discount so it was cheaper but its such a great size and I fell in love and had to have it! You can get Ted Baker from Asos so you can take advantage of free delivery and extra discount when they have discount events on.

How the internet changed shopping




Like many of you I love online shopping! I love the fact that I can order practically anything online and have it delivered to my house without leaving my bed. Theres no queues, no hot shops, no snotty sales assistants just you and all of those amazing online stores. Most shops now have a website and you can order most of their stock online, sometimes I find theres more online than in the shops. My local topshop is quite small, so theres always alot more choice when I have a look online. You can then have you products delivered to store for you to collect, or you can have it delivered to your house.

I'm a huge fan of asos which is an online store, they have a massive selection of fashion and its so unique and trendy. They have very up to date fashions and theres always new products on their website. They also offer free saver delivery and have some really amazing brands like Motel, Primark and French Connection that some people might not be able to get in their local area. 

Here's a few Pro's and Con's when it comes down to Internet shopping! 

Pro's 

You can shop 24 hours a day !! 
No queues or other people ;) 
You can buy online and collect in store or have it delivered. 
Online discounts (ebay, vouchercloud, asos marketplace) 
Huge selection of fashion without walking around for hours.
Pay via paypal
Check in store stock online 

Con's

You have to have the internet lol - get Virgin Media here 
Don't always have your sizes.
Sometimes the sizes are weird and you have to try things on which means sending stuff back which can be a hassle.

Maliboutique In Birmingham























I went along to the Maliboutique on friday for a little look around !! I wanted to go last year and I think I was on holiday and couldn't go so this year I made a little detour into Birmingham to visit.

On arrival your given a token which allows you to have a free cocktail which was soo nice! I had a orange colour one which was called Mali-colada and then you had little posts all around the tent that were like little check in points. They gave you a website and you had you go around and scan your smart phone on each point. I was so lucky and actually won a bottle of Malibu and a £10 Asos voucher.

The little asos section of the tent was really nice and there were some clothes there which was great because I love to see things in real life before I order them so with Asos I sometimes end up returning things because its not what I was expecting but there was some really nice hight quality products in the tent that I would definitely buy online. I also got emailed a promo code for 20% off asos. So as you can see for a free event it's worth a visit because you can win some great bits and pieces.

Toni and Guy and nails inc are there doing hair and nails for free you just have to book in.

I had a lovely time winning prizes and scanning in at each point, I liked looking through the clothes and i'm abit gutted I didn't have time to wait to get my hair and nails done but if you have time id definitely say get it done because I saw some amazing curls at the Tony and Guy section.

 If you want to attend the Maliboutique it will be making it's last stop in Manchester Exchange Square 23rd - 26th August !! 

REVIEW: NARS Gina

NARS Gina Blush RRP:£21 


'The ultimate authority in blush, NARS offers the industry's most iconic shades for cheeks. Natural, healthy-looking color that immediately enlivens the complexion. A light application of even the highest-intensity hues delivers a natural-looking flush.
* Silky texture in matte and shimmering shades * Micronized powder ensures soft, blendable application* Iconic NARS shades'


I Bought this on www.beautybecca.com's blog sale for £8 it's only been used a couple of times. I really wanted to try out a Nars Blush but £21 is a bit much however now I think I will invest in a few. This is a orange/ peach shade which isn't normally something I would go for as I normally wear very bright pink shades. This is abit more natural which is lovely on my skin however I keep applying too much which makes me look abit fake tanned but when I only put a nice thin layer on it looks really nice. I would like to buy some of the pink shades and especially Orgasm :) I love the simplistic matte packaging and if you read my previous reviews you will know I really am a sucker for Simple packaging. I just love this. I apply it with my ELF blush contour brush which applies this really well. 

Have you tried any NARS blushes and what pink ones would you recommend?

  

Autumn Floral



dress: River Island from ASOS// Cardigan: Internacionale // watch: Casio

Wore this outfit last week and completely forgot to post these pictures. I bought this dress from River Island after seeing Lily Melrose in the Blazer - It has the same pattern but it is more tapestry-like.
I love florals but they haven't been about as much this year with the aztec patterns floating about. I decided at £16 in the sale I had to get it. Its very versatile and goes with black or brown accessories. I got a 12 because I wasn't sure what the fit would be like but its abit big but comfy. I like the length -its quite long but the other day I wore this with a slouchy jumper over it and it looked really cute and it was the ideal length. The pattern in quite vintag-y which I lovee! I wore it with a chunky cardigan as I was going out for a family meal and wanted to look nice but casual. 

What do we think ?

total price £94

This is my asos £100 challenge entry, I spent £94 and have put together this aztec styled outfit that i think will look amazing on my holiday but also to wear from day to day.
