Tulips and Lavender

Boden Wishlist May 2015

In recent months I’ve come to really love the Boden Clothing website. I don’t exactly remember anymore how I came across it in the first place but I fell head over heels in love with the brand and haven’t looked back since. I love how classic, yet stylish and fun all of their pieces are and find myself perusing the website way too often. One of the best features on the site is the ‘Outfit Maker’ which is super handy to create outfits and see how the different items look together.
Unfortunately it also makes me want to buy EVERYTHING and makes me long for an entirely new spring and summer wardrobe. For now though I made this wishlist of some of my favourite pieces, some of which I will definitely add to my wardrobe soon.

What do you think about Boden? Have you tried the Outfit Maker yet? Believe me it’s great 🙂

Have a nice day

Currently on my wishlist #2

1. Origins Starting Over Age-erasing eye cream with Mimosa

I’ve heard loads of good things about Origins products and since I’m in need of a good eye cream I really would like to add this to my daily skincare routine.

2. Dorothy Perkins Blue Lace Dress

I’m really into lacey dresses because I think they look so nice and elegant. I’m in love with the colour aswell and think it is the perfect dress for the festive season.

3. Elemis Balancing Lavender Toner

I came across this on youtube and I liked the look of it. I like that it is less harsh than other toners and would hopefully not irritate my sensitive and rather blemish prone skin. I’m definitely going to give it a try in the future.

4. H&M Jumper

In recent years I’ve really been liking H&Ms winter jumper collections. They are nice and fitted and keep me cosy and warm (there aren’t many things that I dislike more than being cold ) and they also come at a reasonable price, so I’ll definitely invest in some of these.

5. Jo Malone Perfume

For quite some time now I’ve been interested in the Jo Malone perfumes. I’ve seen loads of people feature them on their blogs or in perfume collection videos on youtube. I find the different scents and the possible combinations of them really enticing although I must say that I didn’t get the chance to smell them yet due to the fact that Jo Malone products aren’t that widely available in Germany.
I hope to buy one of their fresh scents next time I’m in London though 🙂

What’s on your wishlist that shortly before christmas? Do you own any of the things mentioned or have you tried any of the products?

 

Floral Spring Tops

A few weeks ago I went to Primark, one of my favourite shops for basics such as plain t-shirts, nightware, flip flops and even the odd piece of jewellery.
Although I’ve been quite familiar with Primark because of numerous trips to England, it’s fairly new in Germany and certainly not yet a shop to be found on every high street.

The problem I sometimes have with Primark is that the quality and sizing of their stuff fluctuates. Anyone who’s shopped there has probably come across that aswell at some point.
Since the changing room queues are usually waaaay too long for an impatient person like me I tend to not try things on unless I really need to make sure that the size I picked actually fits me. I find this particularly difficult with trousers because there doesn’t seem be to just one right size for me…
Most other things like tops are easier to find in the right size even without having to try them on.

Anyway let’s get to the actual topic of this post. I was on the “look out” for some cute spring-ish pieces and I was lucky and came across these two adorable floral tops.
I had been looking for something like this for some time so these two beauties had to come home with me 😉

Although they might look a bit shapeless and creased on the pictures they both fit very nicely and I love wearing them. Also the price was quite good which is always a plus (I love finding bargains).
They were both something between 7-9 Euros as far as I remember.

 So all in all I’m very happy with my purchases and I hope to find more cute pieces like this for spring and summer.
