Pretty Little Thing Wish List - Autumnal Wear

I have heard of the online retailer 'PrettyLittleThing' for a while - its been around on a lot adverts lately, but I have never really checked it out as I only trust ASOS as my shopping destination when the shop is only online. 
I have had some trouble with Miss Guided so that has put me off. The quality is never ever the same as it looks on the pictures and a lot of my friends have had trouble with their delivery/refund policy. 

So as a quick intro into this brand - if, like me, your not really into investigating new online retailers, I thought I would put together a 'wish list' piece of some of my favourite clothes in their 'New In' section. Keeping it as Autumn as possible as shops have started to slowly filter out their Summer sections.
They also seem to always have good offers on - as I was looking there was 20% off all dresses until that midnight, free delivery (winner) til the following midnight AND 15% student discount!







1. Shirt Dress - £20 I'm not normally a fan of shirt dresses but I like this as its long enough to wear in Summer on holiday with lace up gladiators, and then with white jeans in the Summer but back in the UK. But also with dark jeans/leggings when transitioning into the Autumn!

2. Trousers - £15 - I love these! Again - I'm not really a fan of trousers as I don't really have anywhere to wear them like work etc but these work for me as they are so versatile. They can be worn as shown for a nice dinner date or worn with flat shoes for your office job which isnt quite a boring suit situation. Failing that you can just roll around your house in them pretending as if you have something important to do.. somewhere.. but not sure where. Thats what I will do anyway.

3. Backless Dress - £10 I know this is probably unsuitable for Autumn but its a going out dress, and me and all my friends (and everyone I have ever seen go out) won't let the weather stop us in our outfit choice for the night out! Even in snow we are in small clothes and heels!! And with this colour being a wine-y shade of red I think it kinda fits in with the theme! It's flattering on all skin colours as it is so warming(it does come in 4 different Autumnal colours). And only 10 bloody ££££££'s. 

4.Grey Jumper - £15 I LOVE this jumper. I love how its styled, I love the mix of colours, and I love the chunky knit of it. So much so, that as I was clicking through the collection to find some stuff for this post I quickly ordered it haha!! Not much more to say other than I really love it! And want to get myself some Chelsea boots to match now!

5. Boots - £20 - Last but not least I have chosen some shoes. I went for more winter shoes than heels as they would be worn more than strappy little things. I like these as they come up slightly higher than ankle boots so give you more protection against the cold/snow, and they also have a nice heel on them too as there is nothing worse than completely flat shoes - it makes me back ache terribly! I like the cute little gold detailing too!

Bonfire Night!


I took my poorly Grandma out to a local church bonfire night and it was fabulous!
There was no charge (amazingly) and there was drinks, and free cones of chips and cups of gorgeous homemade spicy pumpkin soup - which is my NEW FAVE!!

The chips! (sorry its blurry I was walking at the same time)
The bonfire!

And the fab fireworks!! It was so lovely to put this on for the community for free!!

I hope everyone else has a lovely bonfire night! :) 
Comment below with what you have planned!

Bestfriend's Baby Shower!


(I am on the far right)
Jacket - Dothery Perkins
Cami - River Island
Pencil skirt - H&M though I altered it a bit
Shoes - New Look


The girl who is pregnant has been my bestfriend (along with the others) since we were 4.. which is 15 years!!! 
I still just cant believe she is a mummy to be!!
A big realisation that we are all growing up haha, along with two others who are missing from the day we have all been bestfriends since tiny tiny people and added a few here and there along the way. I dont know many people who have still kept such a solid group of friends since school but I guess we are one of the lucky ones!!

This was a lovely day filled with blue cupcakes (she is having a boy) balloons, pimms, laughs, and cute tiny little presents!!
Oh the stuff you can get for babies! Its insane! She is the first person/close friend I know to be pregnant and have a baby so I never really payed much attention to baby clothes and toys but oh my god I cannot wait to buy more and more things for her haha! The socks you can get are unbelievably tiny aswell as the cute tiddy little shoes! Everything is so so sweet!!
I brought her a pair of blue jeans and long sleeved set of 2 t shirts, for when he is a little older because shes inundated with baby clothes and he'll grow out of them within seconds probably! 
I also brought her a scented candle as everyone knows I am completely obsessed so any chance I can buy them for other people I do as I already have a collection in my wardrobe haha!
I couldnt resist buying a pack of TINY little trainer socks, a cute fluffy hat for the winter and a pair of fluffy rattle socks aswell!!
My mum brought her a similar outfit for when he is older and knitted her a little vest style jumper! so cute!!
I had a fab day and it was lovely to see her and all my other bestfriends who I dont get to see as much anymore as everyone has gone to seperate unis!
Definitely  a day to rememeber! I have got this photo framed in my room now :)

baby Mason James Nield is now HERE!!!!! 
He is beyond words!
