Shopcade

Shopcade is your own personal shopper brought to you via the internet/an app. It allows you to browse through many different categories and add the desired products to your very own wishlists which can be as little or as big as you want. You can create as many wishlists as you like and what's even better is there's different types of lists; things you own, things you love, or gifts you want. All these can be saved and kept under your account until you're able to splash the cash or maybe even given ideas on what your friends and family can buy you for an occasion.

You are given the option to 'follow' the items you are most interested in which means the site provides you ability to find new products recommended by others and receive deals based on brands they follow or shop from. There is also a chance to create a social chain-reaction of product discovery and you can share your wishlists and products with your followers. You can either 'buy it' or 'want it' which will save the products you love for later. 

Everything is ordered into categories, and the details of what shop the item is from is all included which makes your experience an all round great one. As a bonus positive, products which are on offer are always stated and you are notified which means you'll save money and never miss out on the best, exclusive deals. Shopcade also enables you to shop through them, get points, and earn cashback to spend on the website.

birthday meal

DRESS - Miss Selfridge // WEDGES - New Look //
BAG - New Look // BRACELETS - All Primark // NECKLACE - Forever 21

So it was my birthday on Friday and I'm no longer a teenager (boooo). Turning 20 has definitely made me feel old but it's also made me feel very happy because I've had a lovely weekend full of my favourite things; gigs, friends, family, laughs and lots of food. I went out for a meal at TGI's on Saturday evening with the girls and finally got to wear this pretty tiered lace dress from the Miss Selfridge sale that I picked up a few months ago. I'm such a bargain grabber and seeing such a gorgeous, detailed dress for £17 reduced from £45 made my inner clothes obsession grow even more. I bought these wedges for my holiday to America in July but decided to wear them as a one off for the night as I thought they paired nicely and I also love this cute necklace I purchased a few weeks back, it's that type of accessory I just can't resist. 

I will more than likely be doing another post on my birthday gifts I received but because I mainly got money and vouchers I thought I may as well do it as more of a haul post when I spend the money on more clothes, jewellery, make-up and beauty products I don't need which WILL happen, no doubt about it.

Thanks for reading!

Lots of love...

An Audience With...

Yesterday I attended a long awaited event to see my favourite boyband in Sheffield, in a cinema, which was called 'An Audience With The Wanted'. It was such an amazing night (but I'll get onto that later), firstly I just wanted to share my outfit of the night. I know the quality is rubbish and I am going to try and fiddle with my camera settings to see if I can make my outfit posts look any better which is hard without being able to put a lens on my camera but I shall try my very best!

DRESS: Forever 21 // SHOES - River Island // BAG - Everything 5 Pounds //
BRACELETS - New Look // NECKLACE - Miss Selfridge

I've loved and wanted this dress for so long and finally scraped the money together last week and then today I find out it's been reduced to £14.99 TYPICAL, but oh well. The lace down the side is so pretty and with it being a plain shift dress, you can dress it up or down as much as you want. 

I thought I'd include a close up of the details and the little studs around the neckline, plus my make-up of the day which never changes as all I tend to wear is mascara, foundation, concealer, powder, blusher and lipstick/lipgloss.

Here's another close up of my cute locket necklace I got from the Miss Selfridge sale around a month ago. It also opens up so you can place a picture inside but I haven't got round to doing that yet. I'm a bit indecisive when it comes to choosing pictures! But for £2, I thought I picked up a bargain and it's ideal to go with any type of outfit. 

Okay, so now onto the fun part. I know boybands aren't everyone's taste but to me, these five boys are very special. They've been out of the country a while with how enormous their success is now and to see them so close to home in such a small, intimate setting was amazing because I'd missed them very much. The evening consisted of a Q&A, a short video to watch and 4 acoustic performances which were perfect. It reminded me why I love and support them in the first place, they're not like famous people, they're more like friends you've known all your life. It was full of laughter, banter and interaction between the boys and the fans and to get that experience of looking back on old footage with the boys from where it all began was not only cute and emotional, but also surreal. It meant we could share our pride together and realise just how far they've grown in 3 years. 

Speaking of friends, I've met so many brilliant people through The Wanted and yesterday I spent the night with my friend, Caitlin. 

And we also met a lovely girl and her mum in the queue behind us who stayed with us for the rest of the night.

That's the thing I love most about these events, catching up with people you haven't seen for a while, meeting people you've spoke to online and meeting complete strangers who you end up getting on with extremely well because you share the same interests. 

I didn't get many decent photos because of the poor lighting but here's a few...

It was also extremely good to see Nathan back in full spirits and singing stronger than ever after his tough couple of months. He is a trooper!

The day was full of smiles and happiness and now I'm looking forward to seeing them again at a gig in Scarborough on Friday, on my birthday. It's not too much to ask for a shout out is it? Hehe.

Lots of love...

it's a sunny kind of day

CROP TOP - Topshop // SHORTS - Boohoo // FLATS - Primark //
BAG - New Look // NECKLACE - Primark

The sun is out in England and it's supposed to stay out for a couple more weeks *fingers crossed* so this can only mean one thing; it's a shorts and crop top kind of day. I bought the crop top a couple of days ago and dug out these shorts this morning (tbh, I forgot I even had them) so I thought I'd pair them together to make a lovely summery outfit. I was debating on what shoes to wear so I picked out some simple old flats I've had a while now.

RING - Topshop

BRACELETS - All Primark

And seen as though the sun is out, I thought I may as well share with you the blooming flowers on the bush in my back garden. 

Isn't it pretty?

Hope everyone else is making the most of this glorious weather!

Lots of love...

bargain bag

I have a new favourite possession and that is my brown bag I bought a few weeks back. 

BAG - Everything 5 Pounds

I'm so glad I managed to snap this up before they all went out of stock, which happens a lot on the Everything 5 Pounds website with it being so cheap. I've been wanting a bag like this for a while so I'm not squashing all of my daily needs into one small bag and when I had my weekly browse on my favourite websites and saw this, I was so pleased. 

It's made out of a croc skin material and has two studs on the handle. It has a little zip on the back as you can see, and plenty of space inside the bag with another zip which I found hard to get a decent picture of. 

It's perfect for everyday use and is a simple, yet large bag that not only has enough room for many things but goes with mainly every outfit I wear. They can have some lovely items on Everything 5 Pounds, and this was definitely one of them and for £5.00 you can't go wrong. Oh how I do love a bargain.

Lots of love...
