Headbandalands- sorry for the lack of exciting title!

If the thought of a headband sends you into a reverie of blissful emotion... then this post if for YOU!

Yes it is no word of a lie that the hairband has to be the saviour of all bad hair days and those unwanted grease attacks riiight before you leave the house. SO helpful -_- .

However, please don't think I am just ranting about headbands, because in my defence they actually are on trend! But yeah,  I recently went to LDN with my friend and visited this new shop called 'The Sting' near Piccadilly Circus- OFFICIALLY THE.BEST.SALE.EVER. Fur headband for £5?! Whaaaat theeeeee! And she grabbed a £50 knit for £10!? If your around then check it out or has anyone been there too??

And on the subject of the fur headband, here are my picks of the bestest hairbands around at the mo!

Highly recommended shop though ,  and the website is even complete with some complimentary starwars-esque music and all... Your welcome! Check it ouuuuuut sistaaas.


Peace!

ASOS ASOS ASOS!!!!!

EEEEEEEKKKKKK! 


The ASOS sale has finally arrived, and if you (like many) were playing those annoyingly addictive games on faceyb to get early entry then you will also be as excited about it as me! (Although I have no idea what I was meant to be doing on any of them!! Haha)


Even better however, is the fact that I have a £75 voucher to spend (mwahahaahahahahahaahaha) as I applied to be involved in an ASOS dress fit day of which that baby was the thank you! Holy smokes  ASOS- YOU ARE VERY WELCOME. In fact apply for their newsletter via e-mail to hear from more amazing deals and to get involved in things like this (I know there are all sorts of similar things like Jean fit days etc).


So yeah here are a couple of dressy things I've picked out from the sale- some of which I tried on so can defs reccomend! Christmas Eve: We are ready!!! (Final orders 22nd and don;t forget to get next day delivery! It will be worth it to look SMOKIN'!


Peace! 


Dress 1// ASOS  'Bodycon Dress With V Neck And Cut Out Side' Was £25 now ONLY £15.50

Dress 2// ASOS 'Bodycon Dress with Cut Out Neck' Was £25 and now just £10!!! 
Go fiery  in 'Flame Scarlet' or classic chic in 'Cream' (pictured)


Dress 3// ASOS 'Vero Moda Knitted Scoop Neck Cut Out Shoulder Dress' Was £22 now ONLY £7.50 (Pictured in 'Red Mahogany')

Or finally,
Dress 4// ASOS Dress With Pleated Skater Skirt WAS £25 NOW £15.50
This style dress (with an A-Line skirt) Is arguably the most flattering style dress... ever. I have seen no girl not like it on so this is a sure fire winner! (Pardon the colour related pun!) So pair with your nude Mary-Janes and a cropped denim jacket/ blazer and be the star of the partaaay! (Also how much does this model look like Clémence Poésy aka Fleur Delacour from Harry Potter?! UNCANNY)

Err... Granny Chic? 




First post... MILESTONE ALERT.
So wow, how exciting... but less of that and more of this...


It's cold, it's winter, most of us are stone cold broke by now. So HALLELUJAH that those god awful old jumpers your grandma used to knit you have turned, dare I say it... cool?


So yes it seems it's out with the ponchos and capes (NICE TRY fashion world!) and in with the terribly cheesy- but then again, the cheesier the better!- jumpers. Over sized, Incredibly snugly and personally a MUST BUY of the season.


Cheap, no effort and chic. That's my kinda buy! Check out some on the high-street, if your Gran, like mine, is not master of the knitting needles trend! Bad times!


PS. I will be changing the name of this blog once I find another name more suitable... evidently 13 year old Lydia was not so hot at choosing names!
