Lavish Spark

shirt: cow vintage, skirt: c/o Lavish Alice via Kristy's giveaway, boots: c/o Spartoo via Ceri's ethical outfit competition, amethyst pendant c/o Wired Jewellery via Vicky's giveaway

As you can tell I'm wearing lots of my lovely winnings in this post, I've had the best luck recently and got some amazing new items from some fab brands and lovely lades; just want to say thank you so much you've made me a seriously happy pup.

This gorgeous skirt was courtesy of Lavish Alice through Kristy's blog giveaway a while back. Lavish Alice is a brand which has really kicked off recently, I hadn't heard of it before Kristy's post but since then they seem to be everywhere. They're currently all over my twitter feed with a giveaway when they reach 4000 followers so go and like them :) (@lavishalice)- they have beautiful clothes and their items are really cheap- I bought some american flag leggings from them the other day and they are amazing, they're pretty out there but still amazing! Studded a black tee to wear with them so hopefully I'll get the chance this weekend. Queue people in the street giving me funny looks aha...

My boots came from Spartoo; I won a £100 shoes voucher in the Style Eye's ethical outfit competition and these are one of the pairs of shoes I got. Unfortunately for me being a size 4 all of the pairs I liked were out of stock :( story of my life. But with my mum and sisters birthday on the horizon I bought them a pair of shoes each, mum a pair of Roxy flip flops because she likes to be all surfery in the summer and my sister the cutest pair of brouges which were way too girly for me but I'm sure she'll love. The range of shoes on the site is really good - literally had every type of shoe possible!

Finally you've all already seen my necklace from Wired Jewellery; it's just so pretty I love it and it's really spurred on a liking for amethyst/ crystal type jewellery now- I'm turning into Vicky! 

Friday is dedicated to catching up on all your lovely blogs, well that and laser tag for my sisters birthday!! I'm like a big kid. PS word on the street is that Katy, Amy and Leigh are going to be doing PJ naked posts soon, so keep an eye out for those ;) PPS these pictures were took at my mum's friends house, what a front door - not only do they have puppies and horses... they live here!!

Give as you Live

My beautiful amethyst necklace that I won in Vicky's giveaway arrived this week (how cute is the note<3); it's so amazing that I had to post a picture of it immediately. Definitely going to wear it this weekend, don't think I'll ever be able to take it off aha. I'm sure you all follow Vicky already... (if you don't then get over to her blog, she finds the most amazing jewellery EVER, fact.) but for those of you who don't know she hosted this giveaway (along with 4 other items) on behalf of Wired Jewellery; their jewellery ranges from gorgeous gemstones like this to quirky crosses, skulls and above the knuckle rings. 

Last week I raised money buying a few basics from Topshop and guest posted for the Give as you Live blog here after Jess told me about it; so I thought I'd share this with you for the charitable amongst you; think 'raise money for charity' and 'online shopping' in once sentence...

Give as you Live is an online shopping tool working in collaboration with over 1000 stores, including Topshop, Urban Outfitters & Office. All you have to do is carry out your usual online shopping through the tool and these stores will donate a % of what you spend with them to you charity of your choice with no extra cost to you. In my eyes Give as you Live offers guilt free shopping and an effortless way to give to charity- amazing!! Being a major fan of charity shops, it's good to know that the bigger stores are getting involved in raising money for those who need it.
