February Wishlist

As a student, reliant on loans and discounts, it's sometimes hard to find a few spare pennies for the luxuries without maxing out your overdraft and having to live off toast until the start of next term. So in order to satisfy my need to shop, I've complied a little wish list to help me through to April (loan day can't come quick enough). 

1. MONIN sugar free Hazelnut Syrup - As a girl who drinks A LOT of coffee, a giant bottle of my favourite coffee syrup definitely wouldn't go amiss in my cupboard. It's also sugar free, what more could you want. Available from Amazon for £13

2. Cannes Statement Necklace, Accessorize £29 - A gorgeous, floral statement necklace by Accessorize. Statement necklaces were a big trend of 2013 and definitely haven't lost any of their appeal going into 2014, and as described in the Accessorize blog they provide "maximum impact for minimal effort"

3. Naked 3 Palette by Urban Decay, Debenhams £37 - A friend recently introduced me to the Naked range by Urban Decay, and as a bit of a makeup novice I was slightly intimidated. However, once you get into it, it becomes much less scary. The new Naked 3 palette has more rosy shades than 1 & 2 and has matte, metallic and pearly shades of nude eye shadows, ranging from pale pink to deep black. 

4. Pink Kindle Case, Tesco, £8 - I love my kindle, its small and compact and makes train journeys pass a lot quick. But it looks so boring. A bright pink case would protect it and make it look nice… yay. 

5. Lime Crime Velvetine in Suedeberry, Cocktail Cosmetics, £13.50 - A coral red colour lip shade from Lime Crime that goes on like a gloss and dries matte. Theres been a lot of hype around these products recently and I can't wait to try them!

6. Asos Leather Shopper, ASOS, £65 - A simple diverse black leather shopper bag, great for going to and from lectures. 

7. Asics Gel-Kayano 20 Lite-Show Running shoes, Asics, £140 - Every runners dream. Really great running shoes, especially if you're an over-pronator like me. Desperately in need of a new pair of running shoes since my free runs have almost worn right through (sorry Nike).

8. Primavera Cosmetic Case, Paperchase, £10 - Paperchase is my absolute favourite stationary shop in the world and it can do no wrong. This cosmetic case is perfect for carrying around everyday essentials and as a wash bag.

9. Lace Bra, H&M, £9.99 - I have a huge addiction to pretty underwear so what can be wrong about a black lace underwired bra for a tenner.. I already own a few h&m bras and they are really great and wearable, definitely purchasing this online exclusive soon.
