Talisman

Something about 2013 has drawn out my love of all things tribal and aztec. It's always been there, usually hidden under lots of lace or flowers. It's also causing my taste in jewellery to change, usually I'm a strictly 'only wear silver' kind of girl, but there's something about bronzed jewellery that I really do love.
I've made a few purchases and I just thought I'd share them with you :)

£5 from Urban Outfitters

£10 from shopdixi.com

      

£5 from shopdixi.com

£21.99 from ebay.co.uk

I also couldn't resist ordering 2 new dreamcatchers, I only have 1 and it's a bit lonely :( 

Next time I complain about my lack of money...remind me of this!

Another shop dixi post!

shopdixi.com

This is where I begin to show off my purchases that I talked about it in this post.

Firstly, my beautiful pink agate necklace from shopdixi.com! 

Click to buy

It looks quite big in the photos but it's actually the perfect size. I love the colour of this and can tell it's going to work its way on to my 'most worn' pile. (Not that I literally pile up my necklaces, that would be stupid!) 

I was also greeted with a couple of little surprises that have completely made my week! 

I've had my eye on this bracelet for ages, so now to have this in my possession makes me a very happy bunny! I can't see me taking this off any time soon. 

There are different colours available, so keep an eye on the bracelet page if you want one for yourself!

Lastly, this wishbone necklace was included as a little treat!

I love how simple (but sweet) it is. 

You can buy this for £5 by clicking here! 

With christmas just around the corner (eeeek I said the 'C' word) it's definitely worth checking out this website to get some nice little gifts. 

I would be doing the same...but I'm too selfish and end up keeping jewellery for myself ;)

With a palm full of stars I throw them like dice

I'm a terrible human being, and I succumbed to the temptation of online
shopping.
I would be more disappointed in myself, if it weren't for the fact that I think I found some pretty good bargains, and hopefully it will all turn up in time for New York!
The majority of this was found on ebay, but I've included links just in case you like the item for yourself! :)

I've resisted black lipstick for SO long,
and it may be something that I try and hate
(i'm very pale and not such a massive fan of the 'dead'
look)
However, for £1.99 I figured it's worth the risk!
Ebay

Despite already having 2 body con skirts,
I couldn't but feel the need for this,
I'm slowly falling in love with stripes.
£2.99 from Ebay 

The following two items I've purchased with the idea of wearing them together, however I'm fully aware that the chances of me looking very stupid in the leggings are incredibly high. At 5'3, it's completely possible that these will look awful. But, I won't know until I try it and I just couldn't resist them any longer!

Despite my previous jewellery wishlist claiming I wouldn't be buying anything (heh, running trend here!) I couldn't help but buy this...and you'll see why I thought it was the perfect item to go with the following outfit.

This is £4 from Shopdixi.com 

I'm still completely unsure as to whether I'll actually wear these leggings, or if I'll look like a bit of an idiot, but I couldn't resist them any longer so it's a risk I'm willing to take.
At only £4.45 you can't really go wrong, again, these are from Ebay

The jumper is also from ebay @ £4.89.
I figured that as the leggings are quite...bold, it would be sensible to go for a toned back jumper. I'm hoping it's long enough and baggy enough to cover my arse (because nobody wants to see that)
I thought the necklace would go nicely and just tie it all in nicely as it's a similar colour!

I might make a post when these items arrive, just to let you know if I found some good bargains or actually got carried away and wasted my money!

Jewellery Wishlist

If you're anything like me, you have a bit of a jewellery problem that leaves you in a catch 22. I own far too many pieces of jewellery, yet for the most part, I stick to a select few pieces and the rest just stay there looking pretty. Despite this, I have an obsession with buying jewellery to add to the collection.
I thought for this month I would be well behaved, and instead of buying these pieces, I'll just list them all so I can continue to look at them. (For now, pay day is only round the corner...)

Necklace from Etsy
I love this book, and I love this quote. Perfect.

Necklace from Wallpaper Rose
I love keys, I'm  not sure why, is this normal?
It's currently sold out but they're often getting items back in stock so I'll be keeping an eye on this!

Necklace from City and Colour
Being a fan of City and Colour, and as someone who completely loves the song 'Little Hell,' It makes complete sense for me to own this necklace.
I'm usually not a fan of gold, but for this, I'll make the exception.

Ear plugs from Etsy
Thankfully, these are too small for my ears otherwise I would have snapped them up straight away!

Bracelet from Etsy (again!)
I can't think of anything more perfect for me!

Hand Harness from Shop Dixi
I've been eyeing this item up for a quite while! It's not like anything I've seen on the highstreet,  which just adds to the many reasons why I love it.

Feather drop earrings from River Island
I can't help but love these, however the price kinda puts me off.
I'm also not sure if it would look like I had 'too' much going on with my ears, as I have a fair few piercings in each etc.
I imagine I'd only wear one at a time just to tone it back, but even so...
