Topshop Makeup

I, like many others, adore Topshop make-up. I'll admit, I don't really have a great deal, in fact I think I've only ever purchased three items from their range before (though two of them being the same product). However whenever I pop in to do a bit of shopping or browsing, I can't help but lust after the pretty nail varnish colours and lipsticks, blushes, eye shadows and other beauty products. With their cute packaging, adorable names and affordable prices, there's really nothing not to like.


I recently popped into Topshop as I had some gift vouchers I kindly received for my birthday back in March that needed spending. I decided the make-up would be my best bet on getting full use out of the vouchers, despite a very tempting sale section!


Without a doubt I was in dire need of a repurchase of their cream blush, Head Over Heels. I last bought it back in July last summer and since then it has been my everyday blush. Now, with only a tiny amount left in the pan I thought there was no way I could leave without it. Described as a coral colour which is a "Lightweight cream to powder blush that melts into the skin giving a natural luminous, radiant finish. Smile and brush onto apples of cheeks for a rosy glow."

I truly adore this colour, it's so pretty and really brightens my complexion. I apply it with my fingers as I find that's the best way to get a natural finish and a 'just-pinched' cheek look. At only £6, a product that truly lasts a long time and also comes with a little mirror, you cannot doubt that this is a fantastic product.


The next product is something I have been desperate to get my hands (and lips!) on for quite some time. I was browsing the Topshop website a while back and this truly fabulous looking lipstick look right up my street. Tease, which is described as a Barbie Pink, there's no way I couldn't have this, especially as a big pink and Barbie (shh...) lover! This really is a great lipstick. It applies like a dream and has between a matte and creamy finish. I would recommend that if you have dry lips you give them a good scrub to exfoliate away any dead skin and keep them moisturised before applying as you may find the lipstick clings to the dead skin. Despite that, it gives a great bright pink pop of colour to your lips. It's a blue toned pink so no yellow teeth here! I'm so thrilled with this lipstick and will happily include this as part of my daily make-up routine. It's £8 which I think is pretty reasonable for a high street lipstick.

So, what are your Topshop make-up must haves? Do you have any recommendations? I'd love to hear from you in the comments section below.

Weekend Wishlist (14/07/12)


1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

1. This fur collar quilted leather jacket from Topshop is to die for, isn't it?! I've been desperate for a really great, staple leather jacket for some time now but have never found one that suits me. The shape is always odd for my body or it just isn't flattering or it's just too expensive! Sigh... however this is £58 which I think is reasonable, especially for Topshop. I really like the fur collar, though it's also removable. I'll definitely try and search for this bad boy when I'm in Topshop next.

2. All the shops are previewing their Autumn/Winter12 collections right now which is slightly depressing seeing as the British summer just hasn't really turned up, or it did briefly a few months ago. I guess we just have to grin and bear it and spend the rest of the year in jumpers now! So I spotted this cosy looking loose knit coral jumper from River Island and think it's incredibly...me! Unfortunately it's not available in my size or any bigger sizes that would be acceptable to wear without making me look like I've drowned in knitwear, so I guess I'll have to go to the shop or wait and see if it comes back in stock online.

3. These boots look exactly the same as those Topshop boots everyone had last year though at only £45 they are a total bargain version and I think much nicer. Well done Topshop, you're really impressing at the moment! Need to get my feet in these asap.

4. I've heard many people absolutely rave about this Stila "In The Light" eye shadow palette. The shades look very wearable, plus it comes with an eyeliner which is apparently very good too. It's currently £25 on ASOS. I'm not sure if I'll doing everything I can to get my hands on it but if it goes down in price or the opportunity arises when I think "why not?!" then I'll definitely make a purchase. Very pretty though, all the same.

5. I saw this gorgeous new colour nail varnish on the Topshop website a few weeks ago and it looks like the ultimate nail colour for the summer - perfect with a tan or on your toes with some pretty sandals in. I adore the name - Helter Skelter - how cute and retro fun-fair sounding is that? It's only £5 so I think once I've returned from Portugal in two weeks with - fingers crossed - a nice tan, I'll go and pick this up to go with it!

6. The last item on my Weekend Wishlist is this to-die-for plaited shopper with studs from Zara. I spotted it in the Women's new collection in the 'Advanced' section - so the A/W12 collection. They've brought out many different variants of this bag and although I've seen some fantastic looking dupes on eBay, there's nothing quite like the real thing. I'm a sucker for anything with studs and I'm a total sucker for Zara, and a new handbag. However, at £129, I don't think I could quite cope with spending that much on a handbag, no matter how gorgeous it is. So perhaps it's just going to have to stay in my wishlist....sob.

I hope you all have a fab weekend. Got anything exciting planned? I'm going to do some last minute holiday preparations, hit the gym a couple of times and probably start packing my suitcase for sunny Portugal!
Let me know what you think about the items on my wishlist in the comments section, I really do love to hear from you!

Hello lovelies, I hope you're all having a lovely week so far. It seems strange writing this post what with the Bank Holiday weekend! This weeks a total jumble. I didn't really do too much this weekend, just babysit my brother + dog ha. Tried out lots of cooking for my future student life at University. Speaking of which I made my final offers yesterday - eek! Fingers crossed it all goes well and I get in. Better get revising for my exams right now if I'm honest...
I haven't got too much planned for the rest of this week. Hitting the gym tomorrow for the first time in just over a week, cannot wait. Illness and the Bank Holiday has totally messed up my regime so I'm very keen to get back on track!
This Saturday my boyfriend has a 'surprise' lined up for me... hmmm... I'm hoping it's something good and not just something that pleases him - *sigh* boys....

I'll let you all know how that goes....
Anyway, speak soon and hopefully there'll be a few more posts from me over the next week. Have a lovely rest of your week.

The Lucy Diaries: Midweek Instagram (02/05/12)

1. Obsessed with Marina and The Diamonds new album, particularly Teen Idle 2. Trying on a Mary Katrantzou inspired dress in Primark, gorgeous! 3. Feeling feminine and fancy in a pink collared shirt dress 4. Finally found the Primark dress I wanted in a lovely coral/pink :) 5. Told the hot guy at Starbucks that my name was Britney ;) 6. BeyoncĂ© + Britney! 7. Sparkly purple OPI nails 8. Wild Saturday night in watching Moulin Rouge 9. Umpteenth Liz Earle purchase 10. Chocolate cake I baked for my beautiful best friend, Izzy's (or BelRse as she's known on here) birthday 11. Cheeky Topshop goodies! 12. More OPI from my Mumma - such a nice surprise!
Hey everyone, hope you're having a good week so far. I'm currently nursing very sore battered and blistered feet from my new Topshop boots :( Not such a good idea to do one of my trek's in them when it was my first time wearing them out.... Also got a rather upset stomach at the moment, so once I get some work done I'll curl up in bed with a hot water bottle and watch The Apprentice (can I just say, I'm still gutted Duane got fired a few weeks ago, he was brilliant!).
Anyway, hope you're all having a fabulous week.

Topshop ACHEIVE Boots

(apologies for the baggy leggings - not a good look!) ACHEIVE Elastic Side Boots
After seven months of doing 6 mile treks every day in my beloved £15 Primark boots, it has come to the end of the road due to a giant hole in the soles which have not been particularly useful with the current rainy days we've been having in the UK. Cue immediately drenched socks and soggy feet - not nice for a full day of college!

Anyway, new shoes were therefore a necessity so I spotted these boots on the Topshop website and knew I had to grab them straight away. At £75 however, I was hesitant. In an ideal world I would have bought the AMBUSH boots from Topshop's AW11 collection and my feet would look fabulous forever but I think these are a great alternative. They do have a slight heel on them and although I'm a bit like Bambi in heels, I can happily tell you that they are very comfortable to walk in, so fingers crossed I'll be able to walk miles every day in them!
They're a very flattering cut and shape I find and will definitely be great transition boots going into Summer (whenever it arrives). I think they'll look great with anything: hot pants; floaty skirts; pretty summer dresses and playsuits. Alternatively, in the Autumn and Winter I will no doubt be teaming these boots with my wardrobe staple - leggings! Jeans or tights will go perfectly with them too, as they're such versatile boots. Of course, at their extortionate price I would like to claim that these are in fact an investment buy! There's no way I'll be able to afford boots like these come AW12 when I'll be living as a University student, clutching onto my pennies for dear life!

I hope you're all having a fabulous week so far. This morning I had my French AS Oral retake which I hope went ok... I had a bit of dĂ©jĂ  vu however as we had pretty much the exact same conversation as last year! We discussed Lady Gaga's influence on young people's lives... my favourite topic! Fingers crossed I did ok otherwise. Now I have less than a month until the rest of my A-Level exams so no doubt I'll be a busy bee revising hard for them, hoping I'll have done enough to get into Uni.
What are your plans for the rest of the week? And let me know your thoughts about the boots in the comments!

Weekend Wishlist (28/04/12)

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11

Hello guys and girls,
My first weekend wishlist for quite sometime! And it's a biggun'! I hope you're all having a lovely weekend so far. I'm just procrastinating, lazing about in bed watching YouTube videos and wasting my life on the internet - anything to stop me from revising for my French retake oral exam on Tuesday (!) or for my A-Levels (!!). Anyway, here's a collection of things I'm lusting after at the moment, and surprise surprise, all mainly from Topshop!

1. I'm loving the neon-trend, as you can tell, at the moment. These neon pink jeggings from Pull & Bear are gorgeous. I actually tried on a similar pair in Primark the other day but they were far too big - a size 8! Can't believe it but they were just horribly baggy, yet they looked tiny, I was worried I wouldn't be able to fit in them at all haha! Anyway, Pull & Bear have this gorgeous pair for only £19.99, they have them in a whole range of colours and I'm also loving the neon yellow and neon orange.

2. This Topshop dress is a rather garish and daring colour, I'm sure you'd agree! However I saw this on the website a few weeks ago and fell in love. As I mentioned, I'm loving neon especially neon yellow. This dress + a gorgeous golden tan = holiday fashion Goddess perfection.

3. How ahh-mazing are these pyjamas?! I think I could quite easily say that Topshop, hands down, do the best pj's! I still am loving moustache print things, and I'm still desperate to find a ring and necklace like everyone and their Grandma has. Anyway, these are so cute and kitsch, and I love how snuggly the pyjama bottoms look too.

4. A perfect, shimmery and sparkly Barbie pink nail varnish. I'm actually yet to purchase a Topshop nail varnish, however I received a Topshop gift voucher for my birthday a month ago that I'm yet to spend and I've been umm-ing and ahh-ing over whether to buy nail varnishes, a lipstick or some jewellery. 

5. Neon yellow again! There are quite a few neon yellow nail varnishes out there however I've heard the American Apparel one is the only one that cuts it. Beyond tempted to purchase this.

6+7. Topshop lipsticks are some of the best high-street lipsticks out there, in my opinion. They've recently released three new colours and I adore these two. Tease is described as 'barbie pink' - hello! Anything Barbie pink or in fact Barbie related catches my eye (the 5 year old is still in me....), and Whimsical is described as a pinky nude. I only really love it for it's name! Whimsical, ooh it sounds so magical! It was recently reviewed on Lily's second blog, albeit slightly more nude than expected, however I need a good nude lipstick in my make-up collection. 

8. I so nearly purchased this gorgeous white skirt from River Island on Thursday when having a browse during their 20% off for students day. However, my friend did point out it's similar to a white skirt I purchased from there last year but it's so, so pretty! What do you think?

9+10. I'm quite eager to find some new tops at the moment as I'm rather bored of all of mine. This pink, pleated, Peter Pan collar top from Topshop is adorable, and I love this bargainous peplum style t shirt from Topshop too. There are some cheaper versions of the peplum t shirt on the high street, from New Look for example. I think if you want to take on the current peplum trend, a simple t shirt is the easiest way to work it into your wardrobe.

11. More cute, kitsch Topshop things! This unicorn necklace isn't very me but I just couldn't resist, it caught my eye straight away and I love a good piece of statement jewellery.

I hope you all have a fabulous weekend and enjoyed my wishlist. What's caught your eye this weekend? And what are you up to? Let me know with a comment below.

Weekend Wishlist (29/10/11)

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
Hello everyone, I cannot believe I haven't posted for just over two months.... That really is terrible! Truth is, I just have no time to really keep up with this blog. My other blog (http://madamelulu.tumblr.com) is much easier for me to run, this one requires so much effort!
I have a HUGE haul post coming up soon though so look out for that.

Anyway! Here's my weekend wishlist...
1. How adorable is this t-shirt? I love anything pink and I just love the illustration of this. I don't normally buy t-shirts like this one but it's just too cute to say no to.

2. Who doesn't love a good, jewel toned blazer? This is such a gorgeous colour and I love the silk detail of the lapels, it looks so elegant and would be fantastic with a pair of plain black leggings or black jeans and a nice blouse or sparkly top I think.

3. This black floaty Topshop skirt is gorgeous and I love the gold embroidered crosses, they make a nice addition I think. I did, however, spot this skirt on X Factor contestant Kitty (who, I am shamefully starting to love) when I met her at the Britney Spears concert on Thursday! It looked quite long on her though and I am definitely a short skirt person so perhaps a smaller size could change the length? Who knows. Topshop has run out of the size 6 and 8 (my size) online so if I really want this I'll have to pop into my local shop!

4. I have seen nothing but rave reviews about this mascara online. The pictures I've seen of people wearing the product are unbelievable - with one coat you get long, thick, volumised, amazing lashes - just what I want! Although the John Lewis price tag is £22, I have found sellers on eBay put this up for about £12 I think? Must. Get. Hands. On. This.

5. 'Tis the season for new jimjams! How CUTE are these pyjamas? Perhaps they won't exactly keep you warm and snug in the upcoming chilly Winter months but you certainly will look perfect for the holidays! These are an absolute must have in my opinion, and you can't beat an adorable set of Topshop pyjamas.

6. I think this is on everyone and their dog's wishlist's at the moment.... For me, this is the ultimate Winter party dress. It's a gorgeous black velvet material with pretty sparkly silver spots all over. It's a very flattering shape and would no doubt cause many compliments! I'm aware of the rose-y pink alternative but this is simply perfect and I must have it, even with it's £46 price tag (damn you, Topshop!)

7. Now, I understand that this will never be mine but I saw this on the Topshop website and my heart skipped a beat. This looks really similar to a dress that Blake Lively from Gossip Girl wore... I think. But it is a beautiful ombre effect sequin dress that costs an absolute fortune but you can guarantee would be the most incredible dress you have ever owned. Sigh... this is definitely for the wishlist.

8. Finally, these bad boys from River Island look perfect to finish off any Autumn/Winter outfit. They're not my usual shoe and the snakeskin effect does look a bit tacky but I'm sure when actually wearing them, they look beyond fierce!

Hope you like this weekends picks! Let me know which items would be on your wishlist in the comments section below, and hopefully it won't be too long until you hear from me again.

Weekend Wishlist (28/08/11)

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
Hey everyone, this should probably be renamed as end-of-weekend wishlist. I've had no time to make this over the weekend but I wanted to put it out there as soon as possible, so Sunday evening it is! Hope you've all had a fantastic weekend. I went to the cinema with my friends to see The Inbetweeners movie last night - it is hilarious, if you haven't seen it already then you must go! We then popped into Nando's and just had a really lovely evening.

1, 2, 3 & 4. I am so obsessed with knitwear right now, particularly as the weather hasn't exactly been very warm and the drizzly nights have made me long for a snuggly cardigan. I adore these three Topshop cardigans, particularly the third one. However at £40+ I'm umm-ing and ahh-ing at weather or not I can warrant spending that much money. But it is so, so lovely and looks like it would keep me so warm! There is a very similar version in New Look at the moment though for £22 I think so I may have to go with that one and will then be able to buy a few more clothes too.
Oh and how adorable is this polar bear jumper? I need it in my life!

5. I saw these boots when I was shopping in London two weeks ago and completely fell in love. At only £14.99 they are a complete bargain. They're not something I would usually go for but I think they would be so cute.Thoughts?

6. These cable knit leggings from Topshop look perfect for those long Autumn/Winter days when you're just lounging around the house or curled up in bed with a milky hot chocolate and re-runs of Sex and the City and Friends on tv. And £20 for a good pair of leggings from Topshop seems pretty good to me!

7. I saw this snood in River Island the other day and it is the softest thing I think I have ever come into contact with. I'm hoping to find this wrapped around my neck one day soon...

8. I so very nearly bought this in Topshop the other week but I didn't have enough money on me at the time. It's such a pretty colour, very wearable. It just looks like the perfect shade of pink for me.

9. Yes, another pair of boots! These are from River Island this time and the only size they have left on the website is mine... a 5. Do I buy them? £65? Decisions, decisions!

10. Finally, I adore this parka jacket. I really want a coat like this as my Winter coat for this year. Either that or one of those quilted Barbour-style knock offs, but I think this would be much warmer. I love the fur on the zip lining too! So cute and snuggly!

Hope you all have a fabulous week,

London shopping trips

So last week I stayed up in London with my sister. I had a great time, used the tube for the first time ever by myself! It was pretty nerve wracking the first day because I was petrified I'd got on the wrong tube but luckily I could breathe a sigh of relief when I arrived at Oxford Circus!
So I practically spent all week on Oxford Street, and even got to check out the new Forever 21 (which is DIVINE) and Pinkberry which opened whilst I was there in Selfridges.
Anyway, due to my lack of money, I didn't really buy anything exciting worth blogging about. I got a t-shirt from Topman for my boyfriend which we've been hunting down forever. The shop assistant had to go to the stock room and found one in a size too big but I don't care, I had to get it! It's the last one on sale in the UK too so hopefully we can just shrink it a bit in the wash....
I also bought a skirt from Forever 21 which is really nice, something a bit different for me. I got it inthe smallest size available but it's a bit big for me... Hopefully my mum will be able to fix it.
And I also bought a cream blush from Topshop in Head Over Heels. I went to the make-up section on the Monday and they had Neon Rose which I've wanted for ages. So I thought I'd wait until a few days later to buy it but I came back and it had gone. Luckily the colour I bought is very similar.

Anyway, on with the pictures of my changing rooms adventures!

Apologies for the awful picture quality, I only took these on my BlackBerry. Oh and also apologies for my horrible legs, I'm not exactly blessed with the best thighs.
The shorts are already mine (£20, New Look, bargain) but these are two of the tops I tried on whilst at Topshop on the first day. I do have a picture of me trying on a skirt but I'm in my bra and, well, nobody wants to see that.
LOVE the grey t-shirt, I've had my eye on it for ages now. Wish I had the money to buy it, it was only £18!

This playsuit from Urban Outfitters was something a bit different for me. If I had an endless supply of money, I definitely would have picked this up. I also really like this dress. Again, it's something a bit different for me - Peter Pan collar and all. It's very pretty though, don't you think?

So Forever 21 has just opened in Oxford Street in London and I was very excited to go there. The shop is absolutely beautiful. It's three storeys high: the bottom 2 for clothes and the top floor for accessories, jewellery, shoes, pyjamas, lingerie, and a few other clothes that didn't fit downstairs. Each section of the store is split into sections e.g. thrift, vintage, street, etc etc. There's SO many clothes, it's difficult to know where to start first, I was just picking everything up! They have some really gorgeous clothes, and I do think that it's a very me shop. I get so disappointed a bored with a lot of what the rest of the high street has to offer and this just seems like the perfect alternative. These are some of the clothes I tried on - the queue for the changing rooms was ridiculous! The cammel coloured skirt is what I bought though I'm still a bit unsure of it now... oh well. It was only £10.50 which I think is a ridiculous bargain! A lot of people seem to be comparing it to Primark which I think is a bit of an unfair comparison. If anything, it's more like the pricing of H&M though when it comes to the clothes I think it's incomparable. There's nothing like it out there.

On the Wednesday Pinkberry opened in Selfridges. If you've never heard of Pinkberry, it's an LA based brand that sells frozen yoghurt with different delicious and healthy toppings. I was so excited, although I'm going to LA in a few weeks and will no doubt find a Pinkberry there, to be able to try one in London was great. I had an original with toppings which cost me £4.90 - a bit over priced I think but you could have as many toppings as you wanted) which I topped with strawberries, raspberries, kiwi and blueberries. It was absolutely delicious, I swear. I could eat it again and again and again. And it's also a much healthier alternative to ice-cream at only 90 calories (not including the toppings). AMAZING!


This is an Aztec dress that was in the sale from All Saints. When I got home I found out my style icon, Ashley Tisdale, had worn this exact dress to a movie premiere the night before! Amazing!

Black body-con dress from French Connection....

This was in H&M which I never usually like. I find it a bit overrated and dull. You can never find anything decent in there really, but I guess it's a good place to go and get basics from at a reasonable price. Maybe that's why I don't like it - I'm not a basic person!
The black dress was far too big for me, it felt very loose and baggy and I looked like a frumpy school girl I felt,even though the dress is quite nice anyway. It's much too warm to be wearing a dress like this now anyway, the material was so thick!
I really, really, really wish I bought this second outfit. The black racer back vest top which had suede detailing on the back, was only £7.99 and this floral skirt which I was unsure about at first was also only £7.99. It's a simple outfit but I really liked it, it's very me but who cares, that's a good thing! I can't find the skirt online so I'll have to pop into H&M when I next have enough money.
This jumper looks a bit silly on me, I don't know if it's meant to be so baggy but it felt huge on me - and it was a size 8. Not too sure about it anyway. You can't see but in the picture I was also wearing a really cool pair of black leggings with black suede pannels on that I fell in love with. I'll have to go back and get them too!
I also tried on a gorgeous pair of boots which can be found here (though the picture doesn't do the boots justice). I think they're so nice, though I don't think I'd be able to wear them every day for college seeing as they have heels and the journey to and from college is a 4 mile walk, plus extra walking around the massive college site. Might settle on these cute fringe boots as well.

Random picture of my M&S lunch.... the feta and roasted tomato pasta salad is to die for - everyone has to try it out! Oh and of course, I'm still a child at heart, buying Percy Pigs...

MASSIVE Topshop trying-on-clothes spree! I genuinely love the daisy/flower print navy dress but it was £38 or something which I thought was totally outrageous for a little cotton dress which I could probably find cheaper in Primark... Also the pink dress in the same style was so cool to try on, I've been looking at these dresses for ages and to finally be able to try one on felt awesome haha. It was quite tight but I felt very posh in it. Perfect for a posh family event I think.
The tops weren't really my style, though they were very nice. Unfortunately due to my obsession with florescent coloured bras, you could totally see my bra through the white tops.... cringe.
The last three dresses were from the bottom floor of Topshop on Oxford Dtreet which is where all the brands are. The purple one is from Rare which I've been wanting to try on for a life time. They only had it in a size 10 so I thought I'd give it a go but it was far too big and make me look completely flat chested. The last two dresses made me feel so girly haha. I prefer the second one, it's so elegant and simple. I can't remember what the brand was called but I wish I had bought one of their dresses for my prom last year - it would have been perfect!!


Finally this is my Tequila Sunrise when my sister treated me to a TGI's in Covent Garden. I haven't had tequila since when I went to Nice so it felt so good to be drinking it again! Haha! So, so yummy. I also had a hamburger which completely filled me up but was really good.

So all in all, that was my London trip! I have a few other more personal pictures that I might post later but I thought this would be the most interesting for you to read/see. If you have any further questions about anything I'm wearing then please don't hesitate to ask in the comment section below and I'll try my best to answer you.
