Spring/Summer Clothes & Shoes : Wish List!

Lets face it, with the internet so in-our-faces every waking moment we are all bound to do some online window shopping (or as I call it online screen shopping ^.^ ) We have multiple tabs open to our favorite shops and have a full cart in each one … but how often do we actually buy all of the carts full of goodies (without editing them down to a few products so that the price isn't below a certain goal you have set for yourself)?

So today, since spring is two days away, I decided that I am going to share that pre-checkout stage of online shopping. You know, that stage where you are teetering back and forth on if you want to actually buy or if you actually need these things…

I picked a couple of the stores I often find myself shopping at online and want to share things that I think are good for Spring/Summer or things that are just plain cute and I have been unable to stop thinking about!

Urban Outfitters:

Kimchi Blue Sparrow T-Strap Sandal $34.00

These are perfect for warm weather! I think that the metallic adds a little oomph to any outfit and these could go with just about anything! 

Hairtrade :

(They do ship worldwide!)

Yogi Curling Hair Wand: £61.28 or $101.21

I've been looking at curling irons for a while now. I have never really considered getting one because I have naturally curly hair (but not the good kind … the kind that does whatever it wants and is not easy to manage) I recently found out about Hairtrade and thought I would have a look at their website.  The Yogi hair wand produces long lasting curls and waves whilst leaving the hair in ultimate condition. It is lightweight, quick and easy to use with its extra long 360 degree swivel cable.And its pink! hehe pink isn't my favorite color, but it is up there in the list so thats an added bonus! 

H&M:

Lace Top $14.95 

Even though its black, which normally people want to stay away from in the warmer months, it would be really cute if you know your not going to be outside all day or for a bonfire at night! The sleeves and the side panels are lace which provides that 'flirty or girly' vibe! It also comes in plain colors, if your not much of a floral print type person :)

Patterned Tunic $24.95

I really like this because its not a close fit so it won't be uncomfortable outside on a hot day, and because who can resist the classic black on white polka dot print?! It can go with black shorts, jean shorts, or skinny jeans! (light or dark wash)

Denim Shorts $24.95

These are pretty much just a general choice of jean shorts. But the belt is cute and sort of adds that care free feel of Summer!

Chiffon Dress $24.95

Normally Im not one for dresses, but this is too cute. Ive said it before in my Spring/Summer cosmetic bag wish list post, that I'm also normally not attracted to floral prints either but apparently in 2014 my tastes are changing. 

5-pack Ankle Socks $7.95 

I saw these and they just screamed 'pick me!' I am not sure if I would even wear these with shoes/out of my house. I am one of those people that doesn't like to wear shoes in the house, but I don't like to walk around barefoot either … I have a very extensive and colorful sock collection lol. 

I saw a sweater at Target the other week and I keep wondering If I should go any buy it… 

Mossimo Supply Co. Junior's Graphic Sweatshirt $19.99

This is a really pretty pink rust color that would look good on anyone! the bike graphic is really cute and this would be perfect to wear on those cold summer nights!

I hope you liked seeing some of my Spring/Summer clothing picks! I hope I get my hands on some of them soon! lol 

But I also want to know what your Spring and Summer clothing picks are, leave me some links in the comments!

Until next time!

Spring/Summer Cosmetic Bags! : Wish List

Im not sure if it is because Spring is getting closer and closer and so many cute new things are coming out, or if I just have a new mindset towards makeup/cosmetic bags but I recently have become slightly obsessed! So I thought it would be a good time to share my favorites that I have found with you! Well, not all my favorites because then this would break a world record for longest blog post! lolz. I decided to really narrow down my list and I have come up with  top 7 (weird number I know.… )

First I am going to start with Forever 21 :

This is the Romantic Rose Midsize Cosmetic Bag Lately I have been drawn to floral prints, which normally isn't like me but when I saw this I fell in love! I like that it is a really pale minty colored background because that makes the flowers pop! The outside of it is cotton fabric, so I would worry that it might get dirty easily … It is listed as a medium size bag for $6.80 and is approximately 4.5" height x 7.5" width x 4.5" depth. Depending on the size of your handbag this would be perfect to put makeup in for touchups if you are going to be out  of the house all day, or even as a really cute pen pouch!

This next one is called Pastel Geo Travel Cosmetic Case and it would be perfect for traveling (guess I didn't need to tell you that based on the name ^.^ ) on a weekend trip! It has two pockets, which makes me happy because sometimes I don't like throwing everything into one pouch and having to search through it all to find one thing. And I just love the pastel colors with the bold triangle print. When it is closed it is 5" height x 8.5" width x 2" depth and is sold for $8.80. 

The last one at this shop is the Spotted Midsize Cosmetic Bag that I was also really drawn to because of the colors! They are bright and perfect for summer! The only thing I would change about this bag would be to swap out the gold zipper for a silver one (but thats just personal preference). Its size is good to throw in a purse or jut to carry by itself for a day at the beach (if you live near the beach … ) 5.75" height x 8.5" width x 3" depth and only costs $7.80! 

Moving on to Urban Outfitters! 

This is the LeSportsac Party Time Mandy Makeup Bag! 

This bag may not be covered in bright colors or a super bold geometric pattern, but it is still super cute because it is covered in a fun little animal print with bits of color here and there! their are cats riding horses, squirrels dancing with rabbits, tigers playing guitars, and even cows walking birds on a leash! Its main zip compartment is expandable, and it even has an outside zip pocket! It is abut 9.5" in length and 6" tall. It runs a little on the pricier side for a makeup bag at 42 buckaroos ($42.00) but it is just so darn cute!

Next up is another travel but also an everyday throw-in-a-purse bag from Ulta!

This is the Sweetly Surprised 4pc Train Case and is an awesome value for $37.00!

Finding one really cute makeup bag is nice, but finding 4-in-1 is out of this world! You can organise and fit the three smaller ones into the train case or for a weekend trip just use the pink half-size train case, and you can even use the smaller ones to toss into your purse! The size of the clear bag is 8.75 x 6.25 x 6.0.

The sixth one is from Bed Bath & Beyond, which I wouldn't normally think sold these types of things (for some odd reason)!

BlueAvocado® (eco) Designed by Lauren Conrad 2-Piece Pouch Kit in Red Microdot/Green Nautical

Lets face it I picked these for Spring/Summer because of the cute nautical theme! They come as a set priced at $19.99! The Navy with red-orange polka dots measures 8.25" L x 3" W x 6.25" H and the smaller green bag with rope and sail boats measures 6.25" L x 2.75" W x 4.25" H.

The last bag I am going to share with you is from H&M :

Transparent Toiletry Bag

I do not know what it is about this year or maybe just this season, but I am drawn to things that I normally would just walk right past! I am loving these clear makeup bags and how you can see everything in them even if it just looks like one big jumbled mess. I also wouldn't normally go for anything with a brass-y or copper accent on it but, to me this bag is perfection. it is a very decent size at 7 3/4 x 11 in. and is very affordable listed at just $6.95!

I hope you guys liked this wish list type post and if you have any makeup/cosmetic bag picks for Spring and Summer I would love to see them so leave a link in the comments or tweet me! And as always let me know what you would like to see up here soon! There is currently a poll at the top of the website!

Next up is my first review! so keep your eyes peeled for that sometime towards the end of this week or beginning of next!!
