Choosing a prom dress on a budget with boohoo

May 10, 2018      5 Comments

Hello, Darlings!
Spring is in the air and we all know what’s coming soon for many school/college leavers… PROM! There is one thing I regret about being a teen and that was not going to the prom which is such a big shame because so many said it was one of the memorable days of their lives. The biggest reason I didn’t go to prom was the cost of the dress and I didn’t want my mum to spend too much money on a dress that going to be used only once.
That’s where this post comes in! Boohoo have so many dresses that are perfect not just for parties but also for prom too. They have many dresses to choose from and not only that they have the shoes and accessories to choose from too.

As you can see I have styled the dress that Boohoo has kindly sent me with a dusky pink jumper and put on a floral scarf which goes really well with the outfit don’t you think? I bought this in petite as I am 5’3 and find it hard to find maxi dresses that aren’t too long for me, this one is fine paired with heals.
I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of choice of prom dresses available they are many different types. to choose from including maxi dresses, skater dresses and dresses with lots of detail like with lace and sequins, they are dresses for everyone. I just had to show you some of my favourite dresses and accessories that are all budget-friendly.
My top picks dresses
prom dresses on a budget with boohoo
Plus Lacey Wrap Front Slinky Maxi Dress
Price: £20
This dress has a beautiful wrap design and in lovely pastel pink, I think it looks pretty elegant don’t you think? This dress comes in sizes 18-24
Eva Square Neck Midi Skater Dress
Price: £20
I just love how vibrant yellow this dress! It stands out from the crowd and looks stunning. I think this will go perfectly with nude heels or sandals. This comes in sizes 6-16
Boutique Margot Open Shoulder Fishtail maxi dress
Price: £30
This has to be my favourite dress of all, it has Jessica rabbit vibes and looks like filmstar elegant without the hefty price tag.

For more choices of dresses check out their prom dress category where they are 100s of dresses to choose from.

What about shoes and accessories? 
Well, they have you covered there too and I have made a little list of my favourite products on their website right now.
prom accessories on a budget
1. Katie Clear Coloured Court Heals (RRP £30) 2. Jessica Metallic Strappy Low Block Heels (RRP £25) 3. Olivia Double Strap Pointed Flats ( RRP £18 ) 4. Yasmin Bug Embroidery Cross Body Bag ( RRP £16 ) 5. Millie Bright Pom Pom Clutch (RRP £10)  6. Ava Premium Embellished Diamante Box Clutch Bag ( RRP £25 )
I hope this post was helpful to anyone who needed it.
Has anyone been to prom before? Did you enjoy it?

The Body Shop British Rose Fresh Plumping Mask | Review

May 5, 2018      4 Comments

Hi Darlings!
I am a big fan of face masks and I usually use one every week as my skin needs a well-needed boost as my skin can get very dry in areas as my skin is combination skin. I have used so many different types of face mask from a few different brands and I always come back to the body shop masks as they work wonders for me. I just had to see what the British Rose fresh plumping mask was like as it’s made for skin that needs quenched and re-plumped with moisture.

Nutrivitality Boost | Review

May 2, 2018      4 Comments

Hello, Darlings!!
 
I am back on my fitness journey finally after getting back into my routine. I recently moved 100 miles back near my mum and my goodness it has been a hectic 2 months so my diet hasn’t been brilliant, to be honest, and my routine has been all over the place. Thankfully I had these Nutrivitality Boost sachets as they kept me alert and reduced the tiredness making it easier for me to sort everything out during my move.
 
Nutrivitality is a company that make a variety of sachets which are Immune Support, Clear Vision and the one I got called Boost. They have NutriProtect technology which delivers 8 times more nutrients into the body compared to tablets. I was kindly sent a box of boost which helps reduce tiredness and fatigue which is brilliant for me as I can get very tired some days and it’s annoying when you want jobs done and you are a full-time mum which keeps you on. your feet.

Lush Tiger Tiger Burning Bright Bath Bomb | Review (discontinued)

April 28, 2018      2 Comments

Hi, Lovelies! 
I am a HUGE lush fan and I have tried many lush products over the years. Since I have started my new blog I have to start afresh with all my Lush tried and tested product reviews. I know it sounds like a lot of work but  I am actually looking forward to doing over the next few months.
I bought Tiger Tiger Burning Bright Bath Bomb from Lush Glasgow Fort about a month ago and was told by the staff that it was only available at their store. It cost me £5 which I was a little steep but I just love Lush, I couldn’t say no. I also did some research it was also available at the lush summit.

My life with PCOS

April 21, 2018      4 Comments

Hi, darlings!
I have had my PCOS diagnosis for over a year now and to be honest, it’s just set in now that I am stuck with it. I first knew something wasn’t right with me when I was putting on weight rapidly and also the fact I and my partner had been TTC baby #4 for nearly 3 now without any sign of positive pregnancy test ( I know I have 3 kids but we have discussed having 5 kids). My periods were all over the place and I actually felt shit too as my body ached like my period was going to start but nope.

Lush Lust Perfume | Review (discontinued)

April 20, 2018      2 Comments

Hi, Lovelies!
I hope you. are all well? Before anyone notices the Lush perfumes have changed their perfume packaging since I purchased this perfume, so it will look different from the ones you can buy in the Lush stores and online. I have had this perfume for over a year and I thought why not just write a blog post about it regardless of packaging change.
 
Lush have a gorgeous selection of perfumes and I have a few of them in my collection and my favourite of them being kerbside violet which smells exactly like a nicer version of parma violets.

Breakfast 🥞 One of my go to breakfasts in the Breakfast 🥞 

One of my go to breakfasts in the morning has to be porridge. I love as it’s filling and you can make so many yummy combinations with it. My favourite at the moment is @thegreatbritishporridgeco with strawberries, @arlaprotein strawberry protein yogurt and some granola from @verival_uk for some crunch.
