All pictures above from Tumblr - follow my inspiration blog HERE.I love ear cuffs, and saw some beautiful ones in Camden when I visited last year, but never got the chance to buy one. Looking in Topshop, I also found some beauties. The tarnished gold ones below, were a Christmas present from my friend Amy - and the other is from eBay. I wanted something a bit plained, something nice and small, and saw the two cross detail ones (with the blue background below) on eBay and thought it would be a great opportunity to buy the set, and give one away on here! I know it's not the best giveaway, or the most exciting, but I wear mine literally every day, and the postage from Hong-Kong is 28 days... so will also save you LOTS of time! Also a great alternative to a new piercing.

Last week I bought some new makeup from eBay. At first I was a little bit worried about buying it.. you don't know what could be in it haha! But, after looking at the feedback and the comments I decided it was worth a shot. I'm obsessed with Benefit - I just love the packaging and the vintage feel of it all, not so much the pricetag though. I've had the BadGal lash mascara, the lipgloss and BeneTint, and my staple, the Brow-zings eyebrow box which I think I could die without. It's amazing!I'm saving up to buy a new SLR, so I was going to cut down on little things like buying nice makeup and stuff, so had a little look online. And found this..
Mac False Lash Effect Mascara - £4.50 (with £2 postage)Benefit Boi-ing Industrial Strength Concealer - £3.50 (with £2 postage)The reason they were so cheap is because they are factory faults. Like the packaging or the printing is slightly wrong so they are unsellable - but I can't notice any difference! The products themselves are perfect.
I have tiny weenie eyes and literally no eyelashes and this is amazing! Saying that, it REALLY hurts when you get it in your eye...
I this is a really irrelevant post, but I'm sure I'm not the only one who loves getting good makeup really cheap! The link is Here for the mascara but just click see sellers other items, there are other Benefit things for sale too. P.s, buying a new SLR, anyone got any good recommendations? My budget is about £800-850 x
Sorry! I haven't posted since Wednesday! This is going to be one lonnnnnnnnnng post.
Major catchup over the past week.. if you don't want to read it just scroll to the pictures, it may bore you :)
I've just been snowed under with so much work! Exam piece paper was issued for Art, maths revision, chemistry and physics revision.. Oh the joy of secondary school - yet I only have 9 weeks left of school time.. which is so scary! I hope you all had a lovely valentines day. My boyfriend Jack took me out to Strada in Leopold square in Sheffield, then we went on the Sheffield wheel, then went to go and see Valentines Day at the cinema, which was great, all funded my Jack.. your amazing. I wore the lace dress and borrowed my friend Katie's black blazer from Next. Unfortunately, i forgot to take a picture.. but just picture it haha. Then today, i went to Matalan with my mum in search for some nice things at cheap prices for when we go to Egypt in April. I may possibly be going shopping again tomorrow.. maybe.
Friday 12th February 2010: Heroes and villians party
On Friday, i went to my friend Hannah's 16th birthday party. Everyone had to dress up as either a hero of a villian.. so i chose the one and only.. Mario! Here are a few pictures from the party:
Josh as the Joker and me as Mario
Matt as Robin
Tom and Rory as The GhostbustersI made my Mario outfit. I wore, Topshop shorts, Accessorize tights, red primark top, blue primark vest, then painted the hat red (it was originally white) and stuck the 'M' on which i drew. The gold buttons are just paper :) I had to scrub the moustache off though! Not good haha!
Then today, i went to matalan. Here's what i got my hands on:
Coral dress - £6
Nautical cardi - £12
Bra - £6, pants - £2 each
River island-esque gladiators - £14, all from MatalanAnd recently from eBay...

Hello beautiful people :) How are you all? If you live in (not so sunny) England, aren't you extremely pissed off about how much it keeps snowing? Agh! It should all just go away.. and come back 25th December this year. As i said about my ordering of things from ASOS.. they came today!
Take a look..
What do you think? Gorgeous? I love them! Peaches Geldof has some shoes very similar to those. I like them, but i'm not too sure.. considering selling them on eBay, along with the dress.. there gorgeous though. Om nom nom nom
Speaking of eBay, it's gotten to that time when i have no money.. again! In all the stress of being broke (and needing to afford presents and stuff for parties), i'm forced to part with some of my beauties again. It would be lovely if you take a look/bought something from my eBay account! Here's a sneak peak of what im selling/going to sell..
1. Topshop playsuit
2. Vintage dress
3. Vintage shirt
4. Topshop playsuit
5. Vintage playsuit
6. Unworn killer heels
Check it all here!Have a lovely week, not long till the holidays now!
If you didnt already know, i'm hooked on eBay. As it's Christmas.. and i have a little money.. I went a bit crazy again (i go through phases of spending all my money on clothes i dont need) I got this beauty for £2.99! (£2.99 postage too, but still!). It's originally from Miso @ Republic, a shop which i dont usually shop in, but i love this dress! Sorry for the random posey pics.. Labels: eBay, Fashion, Highstreet, Primark, Republic
The dress has beautiful netting underneath, as you can see here ^^^
In total.. this outfit cost me £16. The heels are from Primark and were a tenner, and the dress was £6 inc. P&P.
Bargain.
