(Another!) Cherry diva mini haul!

*sigh* Sorry if you guys are getting fed up with these posts but.. I can't stop shopping here. So hauls will continue. This is what I purchased on my latest online spree! 

This was what I originally went on for and the photo does not do it justice! I've been wanting a neckline like this for ages and this little beaut was only £5. Unfortunately I've managed to break the plain chain section already (no idea how but it did travel to Lanzarote) but it's still wearable! I love it! Super 90s and grunge and pretty

Next was this little baby that I've been eyeing up for a while now 

It was only £1 and no idea why I haven't bought it before but I finally caved. It reminds me of Snow White and I love it 

Next was this bad boy which I'm wearing today! It's embossed with roses and is super cute (for a skull!) 

It's on a lot gold chain and it's quite big too! Only £3.50

I've been eyeing this next choker for a while but now that it's in the sale for £1 it would have been rude not to

Lastly was this layered necklace. I haven't worn it yet (I'm a little afraid of "chain" style necklaces) but I'm sure I'll be brave enough soon. I just loved the vintage looking key mostly. This one set me back £5

So all in all I only spent £16.50 with shipping costs (only 99p in the UK) cheap as chips! 

I think I was quite restrained but I do already have my eye on this so who knows how long for?! 

I also recommend signing up for their newsletter if you are considering making a purchase as they always have different offers and flash sales and the like

Jewellery by Francesca Pina

Accessories. I'm obsessed with them. Seriously. A couple of years ago I started seeing a few jewellery pieces pop up on my Facebook that I loved and HAD to own. Turns out they were being handmade by a friend as gifts, and it wasn't long before they were so popular that they were on sale to the general public. 

My first piece was this beautiful cross bracelet. I'm really not a pink person but I love this colour! The cross gives it the edge it needs to make it super wearable for me.

Next up, I ordered this bracelet which is different entirely, but still goes with my grungeish style.

Scrolling through my Instagram feed, I spotted this little beauty. I'm not sure if it's on the website *yet* but I sent Fran a private message and ordered one (Francesca can be reached at)  I'm in love with the 90s and adore that chokers are back in fashion so I knew I would get a ton of wear out of this. And for £6 who can complain?!

It's a tiny little Saturn!!! Too cute!!! 

Along with this I ordered one of the star sign bracelets from the "Galaxy collection" in Leo ( of course, what other sign would I have with a mane like mine?!) 

I pair it with my silver skull bracelet that was gifted to me by my lovely friend Cheryl, after she saw how much I loved Francesca's bracelets. This one may have been discontinued or might just be sold out at present as I think it's pretty popular. 

You may have noticed the tiny wing charm. It's on every bracelet ( as well as a italic "F") and I love it! 

So basically, I'm a fan. Francesca has a big sale on at the moment so if you want to check it out, the website is;

What have I got my eye on next? I'm not a flower girl normally, but not sure how long I can resist this bad boy..

After all, how often do you get a chance to afford something that's been featured in Vogue?

Review! Popband London hair ties!

So a hair ties a hair tie right? WRONG! If a hair tie was just a hair tie, then we wouldn't have our favourite ones (that we are gutted about when they mysteriously disappear into the black hole where all hair bands and grips go to retire! )

I discovered pop bands when I was looking for hair bands that would not leave marks in my hair. I thought it was a myth that I was chasing, like a unicorn, but it turns out they exist! I started off small by purchasing a single band ( I don't know if it's still available, it was white with a snowflake) and since then they are the only hair bands I will use. They DO NOT leave marks in your hair! I have super long hair and get hot easy so constantly taking my hair up and down, so to find a band that doesn't leave the ugly tell tale mark is amazing. Not only do they not mark your hair, they also don't mark your wrist! This has also led to me not losing so many of them, as they live on my wrist. They are super cute too and resemble festival bracelets. 

Here are some of the sets that I am lucky enough to own! 

So as you can see, they are super pretty and there's some for everyone. They also don't tug or pull your hair which prevents breakage. 

They do multipacks and singles ( with accents) as well as sets with headbands in ( couldn't find an example on the website at the moment but I do own the black glitter set)

They also do a subscription service which is good for people who need to stock up, or as a gift for younger girls with a passion for hair bands and wrist stacking. 

The downside is that they do stretch eventually, and it seems to be that how quickly they stretch out depends on the design ( my printed ones seem to stretch quicker than the plain colour ones for example) however this isn't too much of an issue for me as I have a LOT of hair! 

Not the best example as I twisted the band but you get the idea! 

The only other downside is that if you lend them out, don't expect to get them back...

I can also say from personal experience that they have amazing customer service. I had a very slight issue with one of the products and they got back to me super quick, sent me out a new one plus a little something extra. They are also very friendly which is a rare find! 

To sum up, give them a try! You may never look back!
