Perfume collection and review // Katy Perry, Juicy Couture, Vera Wang ♥

Hello again lovelies!

Again, I have been sick and unable to find motivation for an outfit post.
I was really sick a couple of nights ago and almost fainted! (BOOO!)
I hope you are all doing well and you don't get sick, too. If you're already sick, I hope you get better soon!

So today, I'm going to do a post about my perfumes! I have eight perfumes to talk about, four day perfumes and four night perfumes :)




Okay, so these are my night perfumes.
As you can see, the bottles are dark and I find that the darker the perfume bottle, the more it is suited for night. Is that weird? ahh well :)


From left to right:
'Fame' by Lady Gaga: this perfume smells soo good! It's my favourite out of these four. It has apricot, orchid, belladonna and honey. It's not a sickly sweet smell which is always nice. I guess this perfume is a love or hate perfume though, I think it's amazing!

'Sexy darling' by Kylie Minogue: I recieved this one as a present a couple years ago, even though it's a small bottle I haven't used it all as I don't really like it. The only way I can describe it is 'spicy'. It has notes of sandal wood, pear and rose.

'Purr' by Katy Perry: This is a very fruity smell, I would say it's a very sweet smelling perfume. If you're not into that, this is probably not for you.

'Friction' by FCUK (French Connection): I love this one too! It smells like vanilla and flowers and it's so light and fresh, perfect for both day and night! The only thing is, the pump on the bottle stopped working, hmm :(


From left to right:
'Viva La Juicy' by Juicy Couture: This is so sweet and it smells like candy and all things girly! This is also not something for the people who don't like sweet scents. It is a really nice perfume though, I recommend you just go and smell it at the store :) The top notes are fruity, middle notes are floral and base notes are sweet (chocolate, vanilla, caramel, sandalwood).

'G of the Sea' by Gwen Stefani (Harajuku Lovers): This scent is perfect for the beach, if you're not swimming but you still want a nice, light and fresh smell. It has notes of apple, berries, water lily, musk and jasmine. Perfect for someone who doesn't like very strong scents! :)

'Curious' by Britney Spears: This is not one of my favourites, but it was a present from a boy and I told him to pick any perfume. The lady recommended this one... It's not my favourite but it could be yours! Its quite musky and floral, also mine did not come with the little charms!

'Princess' by Vera Wang: This is my ultimate go to perfume, I need to get a new bottle (there's little to no perfume left). This smells so pretty and just like the name of it, it is fit for a princess. I wore it to my formal and it just made me feel so much more royal. It has notes of guava, chocolate, vanilla, apricot, water lily and green apple.


Have a good week everyone!
Love you all,

Sick at home


Hey Lovelies!
I'm feeling sick today, with a sore throat and I have no energy :(
Now I've decided that I'm going to stay home and relax all day.  So here are what I have chosen to entertain me at home while I'm at home.


1. A laptop: where would I be without it? Obviously I've already started to use it today because I'm writing this blog post (hehe). As you can see I (kinda) collect stickers to put on my laptop. I don't put small stickers on it, mainly they are logo/brand stickers. Movies, blogging and social networking... excellent!


2. Tea: tea, tea, tea, tea!
What else can I say? Unless you hate tea, what other hot drink would you choose to help you relax?
Also, there's nothing better than a nice, hot cup of tea on a cold and miserable day :(


3. Phone: self explanatory


4. A Magazine: honestly, this is such a pretty magazine. It's a nice change because instead of bright pages telling you how to live life, it's more focused on fashion and art. It's my favourite magazine right now. Also, it feels like a proper paperback book!


and last but not least
5. A book: I've chosen 'Will Grayson, Will Grayson' because I have read all of John Green's other books. This is the last of his books that I have yet to read and i'm so excited to start!



So here's to everyone sick at home, laying in bed and too sick to move. I hope you feel better soon.
Love you all,
Jamie xxx

FIRST POST // Everland Clothing crop top // ootd

YAY WELCOME TO MY FIRST POST!
Just the other day, I saw that Everland Clothing had said there was a sale on their infamous crop tops (woo!) So, being the habitual online shopper I am... I decided to purchase one.

It came in a ziplock bag, which I am happy about! I find that if the items are in a plastic bag, it's easier for them to get damaged. Everland posts their items in these ziplock/reusable packs.

After opening, I was quite surprised to find that the top felt really, really soft! It feels like a proper quality top. This is the front

and this is the back, complete with a zipper (YAY I love zippers!)

As you can see, the smiley faces are super cute and definitely make the black top a little bit happier. I also styled this top in to an outfit. Great for spring, where it's a little cooler but the sun is still out.

I've paired the 'penny lane' crop top with a burgundy, high-waisted mini skirt. I've also decided the mini flower crown matches the skirt and the boots add a little edge to this outfit.

All in all, I give this crop top 4.5/5 The only thing I would change, is you can see where the tag is sewn on the back. But with my hair down it's definitely very hard to notice! I definitely love this top so much and I can't wait for my second Everland Clothing parcel!
What I'm wearing
Flower Crown- Equip
Sunglasses- Betsey Johnson (they don't stock this exact style anymore)
'Penny Lane' crop top- Everland Clothing (duh, hehe)
Skirt-Supre (such a great buy! Only a tenner)
Boots- Mooloola
and that's my first post ever! Thanks for viewing! I love you so much if you've read this.
Love, love , love - jamie denise xxx
