My Topshop Wishlist

My Topshop Wishlist

Well hello again! 

Topshop has been my favourite shop for a while now and at the moment I feel as if they are at their best. 
Here are a few things I am loving at the moment: 
1. MONEY Studded Creepers - £35 
2. Bleach Hem Denim Leggings - £22
3. Denim Skater Skirt - £20
4. Embroidered Cutout Shirt - £35
5. Velvet Shorts - £32
6. MARIO Black Hiking Boots - £40
7. Sleeveless Lace Rose Shirt - £34
8. Floral Peplum Tee - £12
9. Knitted Speckle Slouch Jumper - £36
10. Bouquet Floral Flippy Dress - £26

1. These creepers are an essential for A/W12, fitting in with the trends of burgundy, velvet and studs. I would wear them with a simple flippy skirt, some sheer tights, a shirt and some cute socks. I am literally drooling over these shoes.

2. I love these leggings because I tend to buy more dressy things. But, when it comes to a lazy day, I have nothing to wear! I think these are perfect for chilling but you could also wear them out. I'm not one to buy jeans, so with the jegging effect, I might look normal.

3. I think this skirt is perfect for casual evenings out, such as parties, family gatherings or going out for dinner. I would pair it with a shirt, some funky tights and my DM's. 

4. I think this shirt is adorable. I would love to wear it under my Speckle Roll Sleeve Dress in Burgundy from Topshop just to add a little bit more to the outfit. I think it would also look nice tucked into the skirt. 

5. These shorts are perfect for Christmas. I would pair it with my black crop top from Topshop and some cool tights. They are a lovely piece to have in your wardrobe as they could easily be adapted to wear in summer. 

6. These boots are perfect for winter. I'm never one to buy boots as I like to stick to converse and creepers but I think these would look really cool with skirts and shorts. For £40 I think its a real bargain for something that could last me a couple of winters. 

7. This shirt is a lovely change to the shirts in my wardrobe. The print looks very vintage and I think it would look lovely underneath a jumper with the collar just peeping out, or with the skater skirt (as you can see the skirt is extremely versatile!). 

8. I have had my eye on this top for ages and to be honest I don't know why I haven't bought it yet. At £12 I'm surprised it hasn't sold out. 

9. I have this jumper in pink and I have hardly taken it off since I bought it, I feel green is a more wintery colour and would go with many things in my wardrobe.  

10. This dress is gorgeous for the price. I like the contrast of stripes and flowers, the triangle cut out at the back makes it slightly more dressy. This would be perfect for nights out and casual parties. 

I hope you enjoyed my view on Topshop at the moment.

What are your favourite trends this season?

Surfing? Who mentioned surfing?




Well hello there! 

This is an extremely late post but I can't not share this with you. 

On the 28th of July my Mumma, Dadda and I made our way to St. Ives in Cornwall. Overall it took us just over 9 hours to get there. Normally it would take 6. But, we went in my Dad's van, which is old and slightly not-working. His fan belt 'went' so we had to wait in services for 2 hours. Despite the awful journey, it is safe to say it was the best holiday ever. 

In total there were 13 of us camping in the bad weather. We spent every day on the beach... SURFING! 

I have some photos to share with you. 

Please ignore my face and hair in most of the photos, I had probably been in the sea so everything will look very 'beached'.

Everytime I go on holiday with Titch, we play a game in the rock pools.

This was after our first day in St. Ives, the weather was lovely.

I hope you enjoyed looking at my time in St. Ives. It was one of the best holidays and we are hoping to go back next year.

How was your summer? Did you stay in England?

Oh dear.

Hello Stranger!

Well, it is safe to say that I am quite an awful blogger.
School and making YouTube videos and pure laziness has take over.

I will try and keep the posts regular and I interesting.

Just a short post to say sorry.

Toparaface! (Haul in other words)

Hi people of earth.
 As you have probably noticed. I haven't done a blog post for something like 2 weeks (ridiculous I know!) I have no excuse it's just die to the fact that I am too lazy to bother to do anything!

Just to let music lovers know... I have a YouTube channel called LooLarBonkers and it's for people that want to start learning the guitar but don't have a clue where to start... Basically, a 12 year old girl playing a guitar that she can't really play so other people understand. Unfortunately I will only start making videos after the 3rd of June because at the moment I haven't got a camera to film with. But for my birthday I am getting a Nikon P510 Bridge Camera (I wan't to be a photographer) with 1080p video so then I will do an intro, then a vlog. Then start off with the music bizz ! 

So I will get on with stuff. I case your wondering about the title, its a mix of Topshop, Zara and Fat Face.... Here it goes. Enjoy !

I am the worst blogger :L


Hello people.
I am now officially the worst blogger. I haven't updated in ages ! I am so very sincerely sorry. At the moment I am getting shed loads of homework (I'm a Year 7, apparently this is the crucial year, god knows why?), I play the guitar (not very well) so  everyday I'm practicing, I don't get in from school until 4:00pm and on Monday I have cricket (okay, bad excuse seeing as I started today) and Thursday I have badminton (again, bad excuse, I'm starting this Thursday), I have very little money so I can't buy stuff (due to the fact that I'm too lazy to go to the bank to put my money in my account), and the last reason and most of all the biggest.... My dad's camera has run out of battery and I don't know how to charge it. My dad is an extremely busy man and I don't like to disturb him when he is working. SO they are my reasons why I am a bad blogger. But, it will soon be my birthday (June 3rd) and I will hopefully get some money and my Aunty Jill is taking me shopping as we always do, so there will be some hauls coming up. 


I recently (last Tuesday) ordered from Orange Circle, a unique online shop that sells printed tees and I thought I might aswell order one seeing as they are only £14.49. But the package has still not arrived... I'm not a happy bunny :( I will be here soon :) Lets hope :L 


So, when the top comes I will hopefully do an outfit of the day :) YAY! It is soon my birthday so again, an outfit of the day, a haul from when I go shopping (9th June) and some photos of my party (on the 8th of June) and then some other photos from the surprise party that my amazing mother and father have organised and I haven't a clue about. Oh and my birthday presents.. So, I will do all of what I have said but maybe not in that order. 


That's about it...
Lots of Love.

My First Elf Items...

Hello everybody, I am so sorry about the outfit post not arriving, I took the photos on my iPod and tried to upload them whilst in a pub but for some reason the photos wouldn't clip. So, that will arrive at a later date (but soon indeed). 


So here is my post today. Just a few things from ELF - a very cheap but good quality online make-up brand. I found out this brand from the amazing Becca from Voussontbeauetbelle on Youtube. So, I persuaded my mum to buy some for herself and then she very kindly asked me if I wanted anything, well, I couldn't exactly say no could I? So in the end I ended up with the lipstick my mum ordered as she didn't like the way it looked.. So here are the photos... Hope you enjoy. I'll babble a bit after too.




Elf Nail Polish in Light Pink - £1.50
This nail varnish is probably my least favourite of the 3 I ordered. I think this was more for my mum than me. 










Just a little swatch of the colour!
















Elf Nail Polish in Mod Mauve - £1.50


I love this nail polish, it's a purpley, brown pink sort of colour and I think it's really pretty. 








Again, a swatch of the colour. Sorry about the lighting ! 








Elf Nail Polish in Mint Cream - £1.50
Sorry but there isn't any swatch as these were the last things I took photos of and I had to do homework. But it's very good quality. 


So, this is the packaging for the Studio Cream Blush. On the website I understood why it was £6.50 (which is a lot for elf). But when it came, what I thought was glass, was plastic.. Was a bit confused ?



The colour's called Flirt and it actually looks quite chavvy and bright but it's actually quite nice and it works well with my skin tone. So, I'm looking forward to wearing it! 




This is what it looks like on my cheek, sorry about the quality and the light on my cheek. But it shows the colour. 


This is my mums one that she bought for herself and its called Temptress, it looks really dark but rubbed in it's quite nice. I have quite pale skin and even it looked okay on in the end. 

So this is a swatch on my skin. I think it looks alright.

This is the Mineral Collection Lipstick in Natural Nymph (I'm sure that's rude?) and its a really pale pinky nude colour.

This is what it looks like on my lips.

So, at the moment I am completely in love with ELF and their products.. It's nearing towards my birthday (June 3rd) so hopefully I will be able to purchase some more products after.


Hope you enjoyed this... Lots of Love...
