Weekly Wishlist #2 (Random)

I thought i'd apply this weeks wishlist to a Sport theme. As i'm studying Sport and PE at University, here are some things that couldn't benefit me in my 2nd year at Uni and also general wishes as well! 
This is random I know, hahah!





England Shirt: Obviously it being quarter finals tomorrow against Italy and being the Euros in general, I should upgrade my England Shirt. Its such a nice design and simple too! The red is a great contrast and a nice way to show our countries colours. Looks good on the players too ;)
West Ham United 2012/2013 Away Shirt: The endless amounts of West Ham shirts I have, do I really need a new one? Yes, yes I do! haha, i'm worse than a bloke! But you know any games I may go to, I feel I should keep up haha, Come on you Hammers!
Jack Wills Buckland Bag: This is more of a desire than a need. I currently use my West Ham holdall for fixtures and dance classes but this is just lovely and would be a bag I would love to have. It being £79 though is hard to justify but I guess with Jack Wills that is what you get!
Nike Dri Fit Socks: This is random but I actually need socks! Plus these are great for minimising sweat because of the fabric and also is anti blister! 
Nike Shorts: Once again, loads of pairs of shorts but I love Nike shorts. They are so comfy for any activity, especially in the summer, they are very airy and the fabric is not designed to keep heat in. Very spacious shorts, they do the job but still keep in fashion aspect for those whoever love everything Nike.



Any must have leisure/sport/fitness items this summer or for education purposes?
Feel free to comment

Hellraisers

These are literally the most amazing spiked shoes I've seen, and the most expensive I must add too.
They are the UNIF Hellraiser Flat Shoes from www.dollskill.com
I saw these when I watched Grav3yardgirls youtube video on her shoe collection and instantly fell in love!
However, they are $159.00 which is pretty much £125.00
I would never pay this much for a pair of shoes, but will be on my wishlist for a while!

kukee jewellery

I was first introduced to Kukee by a blog and I was instantly intrigued.
Kukee is a online jewellery website, that is great quality, unique pieces, different styles and all for an amazing price. 
A deal was also on where if you brought over £10 worth you got a free cross keyring
Here are some pictures of what I brought




White Pastel Necklace - £2.50
Make A Wish:Peace Earrings- £1
Chunky Statement Ring With Black Stone- £3.50
Deer Antler Ring- £1.50
Make A Wish: Peace Necklace- £2.50

I chose these items just as a trial run to see what the quality was like, whether I definitely like them etc.
I really do love every piece and will without a doubt be ordering from them again because there is so many more pieces I would like!


please note: this is my own review and paid for these all myself, thanks x

red and suede

So, i think i've lost the plot.. hahah
only gone and spent money on something completely outrageous, for me anyway that is!
brace yourself..

I literally had an epiphany and thought to myself; I want some red, suede court shoes.
They were 9.99 from Ebay!
Not joking, these are soo high, even the platform doesn't justify anything! 
I'm 5ft 10 and in these i'm 6ft3! WHAT
I think I may just have them for decor on my chest-drawers.
I must be completely nuts.
Oh well:)

My Favorite Songs This Month

I do find I tend to have favorite songs every month, whether there is a new single or album released, or whether its just an ongoing love of mine.

Ben Howard- Only Love
literally this song is simply beautiful, he has such a unique voice that is so soothing. I fell in love with 'The Wolves' and new that it was pretty much impossible to not love anymore of his songs! I know this will be one of my year favorite songs!
Usher- Scream
This song is just one of those that makes you want to get up and just party like a animal. The beat is insane and I do think this will be one of my summer tunes this year! If it doesn't come on at the club, or at a party I wont be pleased haha
You Me At Six- No One Does It Better
As they are my all time favorite band I thought it was appropriate they had a mention in this post. Josh Franceschi has the most stunning voice and there is not a song on all three albums that I don't like (honestly)! But this just tops it for me. Its just a perfect love song, and the band bring everything together so nicely. Not only is it my song of the month, it will be the song a lifetime! If you haven't heard it, get on it!
David Guetta & Avicii vs Laidback Luke - Till Sunshine (Pixel Cheese Bootleg)
This isn't a mainstream song, but found it on YouTube. Its just a perfect example of a great club tune, no matter the occasion I would be on the dance floor getting my groove on! Also cant go wrong with Davy G in your life, he's amazing! and Avicii, simply awesome! I'm a sucker for dance anthems/dub-step/club tunes, so this is a top song for me this month.
Cheryl - Call My Name
I don't really get attached to Cheryl's songs much, but this is an exception. It's so catchy and the delivery is great! Also love the music video, she looks great, very jealous! Yes it is a little repetitive but so catchy and I couldn't get bored of it, go chezza!
Drake f/ Lil Wayne- HYFR
Lets be honest, Drake is just the don! His album 'Take Care' is amazing! But this song is class! Its one of those songs where you don't have give to give a s**t! The music video is hilarious! And Lil Wayne verse is so good! Overall an awesome song, but there's a time and a place for playing that song loud! Preferably not when your parents are home! haha

What are your songs of the month? Or favorite songs of all time?

Dilemma

Okay so I know as far as dilemmas go this is a bit sad, but being a girl, who is practically a giant I need some advice! So, I want to buy a maxi skirt which probably for my height may not look right? but i'm willing to be a chancer and try it. My problem is which style will suit my better. Being 5ft11 i'm not sure what style to go for? what will make me look a little shorter? or look better for my height?
As my options stand, the best 3 would be:
1. A full length plain maxi skirt, pleated or unpleated (not bothered), chiffon material - not jersey.
2. An asymmetrical skirt (meaning, high front hem- low back hem) same material.
3. The material above the knee opaque and below the knee, see through- still full length however.

Being fussy about particular clothes, I would be the one who finds skirts they like in the perfect colours online instead of when I physically try one on when I go shopping, therefore I want to order the right one. You may be thinking, send it back? but I cant be doing with all that haha!

Please if you have any suggestions? Or if you had the same problem and resolved it, please leave a comment below. Would be appreciated!

Rosy Lips!



I've got to be perfectly honest, some days I just cant bothered with lipstick or lipglosses, but still want something on my lips so make them shine. One day I was routing around Boots and I came across this, Vaseline - Rosy Lips. Just like any normal Vaseline, however a beautiful deep rose colour with the most amazing smell. I find it enhances the natural colour of your lips and is obviously so moisturising as Vaseline is anyway! Its a really subtle shade and you only need a small amount, little goes along way as they say! I have had this since December and haven't even got 3 quarters of the way through! Just a simple alternative for a subtle colour on your lips even if its just popping to the shops! No one would believe its Vaseline!
