I Wish I Had A Case..

I dropped my IPhone this morning onto my bathroom floor, and unlike many times that I have accidently done it before, this time the screen unfortunately decided to shatter. Now it didn’t shatter in just the corner, it shattered from the bottom right hand corner throughout the screen; fortunately I can still use it however I am a bit weary as I don’t want to get glass into my hand.



Now what inspired me to do this post, was that if I had of had my case on my phone, it probably wouldn’t have shattered when I dropped it. I do have a few phone cases, however like to change them around so that’s why I didn’t have one on at the time; I thought I would show you a few favourite phone cases I have had my eye on recently! Also, carrying on with the Christmas related posts, phone cases are great gifts to give to parents, friends, girlfriends and boyfriends etc.

The cases I’m about to show you, range from low prices to higher prices however depending on how much you like the case or how much you want to pay for it but here is just a selection of the types I like.
 
 
Galaxy iPhone Case - £36.25 - (Zazzle)
Tiger Diamante iPhone Case - £15.00 (River Island)
Sunset Aztec Pattern iPhone Case - £33.85 (Zazzle)
Mini Dot iPhone Case - £24.95 (Cath Kidston)
Moonshine Print iPhone Case - £8 (Topshop)
Black Vintage Retro Music Player - £1.85 (Ebay)
 
Thankyou for reading, hope you all have a lovely Christmas! :)

What to buy Her for Christmas

Hello Everyone :) So Christmas is just around the corner and I know how stressful Christmas shopping can be; what to buy who, what would they like, would they use it etc.! I know I always find it difficult thinking of what to buy my Mum/Auntie/Best Friend, so I thought I would help you lovely people by writing a blog post on 'what to buy her for Christmas'
 
1. Makeup: Makeup is a great gift for the females in your life (unless they do not wear makeup of course) Many brands bring out sets around Christmas time which make perfect gifts. For example, Urban Decay's Naked Palette would make any girl smile if it was under the tree (in fact I'm actually asking for it for Christmas)
 
2. Ipad Mini: Depending on your price range, the new Ipad mini would be a great gift to open on Christmas day; a great gadget for on the go and perfect handbag size!
 
3. Vouchers: Vouchers are the easiest present to give; you can pick the amount you want to give and for what store. There are also gift vouchers which include a variety of stores which would be a good option as the person receiving has a choice in where they want to spend it.
 
4. Perfume: As well as makeup, perfume is also a great gift idea. Just find out your Mums/Friends favourite perfume and buy it for them. My favourite perfume is Lovestruck by Vera Wang and My mums is Cinema by YSL!
 
5. Spa Days: Gifts such as Spa days and beauty treatments would be a thoughtful gift for any female in your life; to make this gift even more personal, you could book for her and yourself to enjoy together. Beauty treatments such as Manicures, Massages and Pedicures would be great options!
 
6. Photo: For a more personalised and inexpensive gift, why not print a photo and find a nice frame?; this really cute frame I found from paperchase! You could even create a college of memories which would result in a big smile on Christmas day!
 


I hope you all enjoyed reading this post and if you have any other ideas on what to buy her for Christmas just comment down below :)
Have a lovely Christmas!

Vera Wang Love Struck

The bottle of this perfume originally caught my eye, looking similar to Marc Jacobs Daisy and also Lola; I knew as soon as I had seen it, even without smelling, I needed it in my perfume collection. I fortunately received the perfume for my birthday early in March and then had the chance to discover the scent of it. 

I would describe Lovestruck as a musky floral with a burst of fruitiness, defiantly signifying a romantic feel; therefore If you enjoy sweet smelling floral’s then this is the perfume for you.The top notes for the perfume are a mix between Pink Guava, Angelica Flower and also Mandarin with a mid-note of tuberose and a base of precious woods and sheer musk. This scent takes a mature take on my other Vera Wang perfume; Princess, so if you admired this I would recommend Lovestruck for you also.  The staying ability of Lovestruck is not long however it is easy to keep gradually topping up and re-spritzing.

The perfume can be purchased in a set, including a Lovestruck shower gel and also body lotion. I have thoroughly enjoy using these products as they both smell alike to the perfume its self meaning you are able to use all three which creates a longer lasting scent on your skin.

The perfume would be a loved gift to a variety of different people, ranging from different ages due to its satisfying scent. I am sure whoever received this would enjoy using it as much as I have ( which can obviously be seen in the picture as I have used more than half!)

VERA WANG - LOVE STRUCK RRP 50ML £48.00 100ML £62.00
