Lusting After Dresses I Can't Afford (And Praying I Win £500 to Spend at Maje!)

Summer is just around the corner, and I have plenty of events coming up - three holidays, my graduation and two weddings - all of which I have to find some gorgeous dresses for. After stumbling across Maje, a brand I'd not previously heard of, I fell in love with four fabulous dresses that would be just perfect. The downside? They're pretty far out of my price range, and I can't afford a single one. The upside? Maje happen to be running a competition to win £500 to spend. Yes please!

Preparing for Summer Holiday Style with Aldo (plus a chance to win £500!)

I am a self-confessed holiday addict. And I'm proud of it. We all deserve to take some time off to relax in our perfect holiday setting and calm our minds. For me, a sunshine holiday is favourite, (though I do love a city break too!) and with Benidorm, Dominican Republic, Mexico and Tenerife coming up for me in 2016, I have plenty to look forward to. So when I saw that Aldo were running a competition to win £500 to spend with them, I jumped at the chance and browsed their site to pick out some of my summer favourites. 🌞 (Don't worry, I'll let you know how to enter too!)

Lusting After Coconut Lane Luxe

If you haven't yet stumbled across Coconut Lane, where have you been? I've been getting goo-goo eyes looking at their stock, and I make a mental wishlist every time I browse the website. As if all of the current sprinkles, unicorns, glitter and pineapples weren't enough, Coconut Lane have officially launched a new LUXE range, and the first few items from the range are available to buy now (and you can use my discount code BBB20 for 20% off)!

Unicorns, Doughnuts and Sparkles: A Coconut Lane Wishlist

A company that responds with "Think unicorns, mermaids and Mean Girls, add a touch of marble, a sprinkle of glitter and a pineapple on top" when asked to describe what they sell is definitely a company that is set to go down a storm amongst bloggers, right?

So imagine my delight when I stumbled across the company that did exactly that. Say bonjour, hola and hello to the wonderfully cute Coconut Lane! Pretty delightful, right? So then imagine my further delight when they offered to give me my very own discount code for my faaabulous followers and readers to use (yes, that's you guys!).

What would I buy if I were to win £150 to spend at Brand Attic?

  I feel like Spring is finally here, and a change of season deserves to be accompanied by an upated wardrobe, right? But, if you're anything like me, lack of funds will be limiting just how much you could update your wardrobe.

Well, fear not my fellow friends, because I have come across a wonderful competition by Brand Attic where you can win £150 to spend on their site! Amazing, right? All you have to do is fill in your details (it honestly takes about 30 seconds!) and sit and wait with your fingers crossed!

Women’s Clothing - Frugal Shopping Techniques

This post is pre-written content by Arina Thoggy and is sponsored.

If you have anytime been part of a consignment sale, then you must have realized that it is an easy way to get good deals on lightly used kids clothes. Kids clothes are easily available as they outgrow very quickly. Same is not in the case with women’s clothes. It is not that easy to find women’s clothes that are less worn and again match your style.

So here, let’s see some tips that will help you to get women’s clothing range by spending less.

A #LeedsXmasMeet and the #LaRedouteBloggerXmasParty

My January exams are finally over and thus I am emerging from beneath mounds of mathematical notes like a Phoenix rising from the ashes, which means I can finally update you on two big, fat, fabulous blogger events I went to in December.

Christmas Clothing I Want to Wear All Year Long

I don't know about you guys, but I've never been one to go out of my way to buy some particularly festive fashion on the run up to Christmas. Sure, I've got the odd pair of Christmassy socks and I've had the occasional pair of pants that feature animals in knitwear (thanks M&S!), but I've never gone out of my way to find a cheesy festive piece to take me through December.

Bargain Gifts and Aloha Lola Cards at The Gifting Lounge

With Christmas fast approaching, we're always on the lookout for some bargain gifts for our families and friends. At The Gifting Lounge, there's a little something for everyone, and all at extremely affordable prices! I was lucky enough to receive 'The One'*, which is a stunning necklace from their jewellery collection.

Guest Post: Summer Sale Haul - Dos and Don'ts

Today's post is a guest post by beauty/fashion writer and stylist, Peter Minkoff. Keep reading for some handy sales tips!

Fashion has always been a way to project a sense of self. This wearable form of art (and I do dare to call it art as it is nothing but!) has an amazing impact on human psyche, human figure and the overall presentation of someones individuality with all its perks and flaws.

By emphasizing the importance of fashion and referring to it as art I am in no way trying to diminish the great artworks in painting, architecture, sculpture, drawing, singing, acting. They are all flabbergasting beauties in their own right and should be all honored as such!

Talking to Treasured Treats

Everyone knows us girls like a little sparkle in our lives. And some of you will know that I can never resist a good ol' Twitter giveaway. So, naturally, when Treasured Treats ran a giveaway to win a gorgeous statement necklace, my finger was straight on to the RT button! I was the lucky winner of this particular giveaway, and I got sent a gorgeous pink diamanté necklace* (which, by the way, was packaged absolutely beautifully!).
