Bargain eBay Sunglasses

Since I showed you some of my Harry Potter Gems that I found on eBay last week and it got a positive response! So here's the result of another 'trailing through eBay' excursion :P

It's spring...the temperature is warming up and the Sun is starting to come out...which means that the one thing that one must stock up on are sunglasses. Not only do they keep the glaring sun rays out from your eyes, but they make you look insanely chic as well - prior to this, I own 3 pairs ;)

But of course, you don't have to spend an exuberant amount! Not when you have eBay on your side ;) Here are some bargains that I found!

Pink Sunglasses - £2.09 / US$3.51

Pastel colours this spring aren't just limited to clothing. Why not wear them on your sunglasses too! I'm a sucker for pink so this pastel/baby pink shade immediately caught my eye. I love that it's slightly rounded and has gold accents - especially the arrows at the front!

Floral Sunglasses - £2.08 / US$3.50

My sister actually got these for herself but I had to feature them!
Florals. Another major print for spring. I'd quote Miranda Priestly from 'The Devil Wears Prada' but I've read that wayyy too many times :P (Now that I'm writing this, I think I'll go watch the movie later :D)

I love love love that the floral pattern is subtle and almost has a translucent stain glass effect, giving it a vintage vibe

Here you can see the size - yes, it does take up like half my face but that's because I've got a small one! My only peeve is that it won't sit properly and keeps sliding down! Of course, I'm blaming my small head for this one. D: Although the description says that it has good anti-UV function, at that price, I would take that with a pinch of salt. 

Have you bought any sunglasses lately? Which is your favourite pair?

Wishlist Wednesday #9 // Breast Cancer Awareness Month AKA Pretty In Pink

As most of you may know, October is breast cancer awareness month which aims to spread awareness of the disease. I've seen nail bloggers doing amazing nail art using the colour pink and thought, why can't we fashion bloggers support the cause too?  Well it just so happens that River Island launched their Pretty In Pink collection which I thought was very appropriate and here are just some of my favourite pieces. After all, who needs an excuse to wear pink all month? ;)

1. Pink Floral Jacquard Necklace Peplum Top - £28 / US$56

The intricate details means that this is great for a very glamorous event, and can probably be worn straight from work to a party.

2. Pink Smart Skort - £28 / US$56

Similar to those Zara skorts, only in pink! I love the asymmetric design!

3. Bright Pink Ruched Sweetheart Crop Top - £10 / US$20

You can never have too many crop tops. I think this will look amazing with the floral velvet skirt and definitely adds a pop of colour to any outfit as it's so bright! Maybe pair it with neutral bottoms and make that the stand out piece.

4. Pink Floral Velvet Skater Skirt - £20 / US$ 40

My absolute FAVOURITE picks out of the bunch. It's gorgeous! This is perfect if you're a floral girl and want to transition from bright, sunny summer florals to fall as these are much darker, but still has a girly vibe. Loveeeee it!

5. Pink Faux Fur Leather Biker Jacket - £60 / US$ 120

Super unique because not many people will have a pink jacket of all things! I like that the pink is quite pale and muted and that faux fur lining is perfect for colder weathers

6. Pink Platform Wedges - £50 / US$100

Another pair of wedges? In pink? Yes please!

7. Pink Snake Asymmetric Zip Clutch Bag - £18 / US$36

Super versatile and convenient to bring around, whether to a casual lunch date or a more glamorous event! Simple yet chic (:

Honestly, pink is one of my favourite colours so I wanted EVERYTHING. I think that the best way to wear pink without looking like you've stepped out of Barbie's world is to go with different hues and textures. Why not inject a little bit of girly-ness into your wardrobe whilst supporting a good cause.

Which one is your favourite?

NOTD // Mixing it Up

Most of you will have known that in a bid to stop myself from harming my nails (aka biting) I've starting painting them! Something my school forbids but since it's summer, I'm freeeeeee ;) I must say that it's going rather well! Have not touched my nails in a week/two
That said, my nail polish collection is mediocre. It's tiny. I only have about 4 shades? Which is why when I'm bored of the same colours, I try to mix and match to create new-ish shades!
With these nail polish colours:

L: New Elite Nail Polish Professional (sorry, I'm not sure which shade as it's a local Vietnamese brand & a friend gave it to us!)

R: Jordana In Love

I've managed to turn this (a bright purple/fuschia):
  Into this:

A more shimmery purpley/pink!  See the difference? (:

After the usual 3 coats of the bright purple base, I painted 1 coat of the shimmery pink. Since it's quite sheer, it layers on very nicely by giving it a hint of shimmer! I must say I like how this turned out and how it catches the light too (how poetic) (:

I guess what I'm trying to say is, play with the shades you've got to create new (and maybe better) shades!

Song of the day: Just Give Me A Reason - P!nk ft. Nate Ruess

One of my favourite songs so far - it is amazing. The melody, chords, lyrics.... everything.

I also love, love, love the cover of this song by Sam Tsui, Kurt Schneider & Kylee which you can watch here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eCi3lo1JaQI
