Weekly Wishlist - Home Edition




I've been flicking through home magazines, looking through boards of home inspiration on Pinterest and then looking around the flat and thinking that I want to decorate. When we moved into the flat 18 months ago we were lucky to get most of our furnishings second hand, for free which I did a little DIY to in order to make our own (see this post). Now, I'm wanting to update a few things, perhaps replace some things and give the place a spruce up.

As you know I love a bit of MCM decor and have had to fight with myself walking by the local charity shops when they have had beautiful teak sideboards and dressing tables in the window because we simply do not have space in the flat for them. Sigh. So I've been looking at pretty furnishings online which admittedly are nowhere near as pretty as true MCM pieces, but would be a great way to incorporate a little vintage-inspired style to the home. 

As you can see I'm drawn to warm oranges and reds at the moment. I like red and orange together because they are bright yet still harmonious together and work well to create a warm feeling in a room. Even when paired with a grey (like the cushion above) to tone down the whole look and make it a bit calmer there is still a warm, cosy feeling from the colours.

What home items have you been lusting over?

Weekly Wishlist 3





I've seriously been lusting over No7's new products this week - having picked up a couple of money off vouchers this week when I've been in Boots getting my meal deal for lunch I think I may hit the counter tomorrow for a coupe of things. Hm, decisions, decisions as to what to pick up!

What have you been lusting over this week?

P.S. I got a new camera this week so look out for decent photographs from now on! Hurrah!!

Weekly Wishlist 2




I'm thinking that Jean Paul Gaultier might find its way into my basket when going through duty free at the airport (which it 8 weeks tomorrow - woohoo!). I had a spray in Boots as I was passing through on my lunch break today and it is very nice - quite heady and just reminds me of holidays. 
I'm also on the hunt for a brightening moisturiser - I'd quite like to give the Origins GinZing a try but if you have any suggestions then please let me know!

Weekly Wishlist 1

I've decided to do a post once a week, on a Friday, of things that I have added to my ever-growing wishlist. It may turn into a payday shopping list by the time it comes around, but I'd like to share what I have had to fight with myself not to pick up my debit card over!




I love the two dresses, I think that they'd be lovely for on holiday, I might pop into H&M before I go away and try a few on, but these are the two that caught my eye on the H&M website. As for the rest? Well, you can never have too many beauty products. Can you? 
I'm hoping to have picked up Orangeasm by next week, we'll see if I manage to restrain myself from buying the rest!
