New shoes! (Vans)

Hello my bloggers - after a very long break ..(again!)

I have been busy busy busy working non stop and finally got round to writing a post again and hope to keep it up (fingers crossed!)
Anyway, I have had my eyes on this pair of Van's for a while now but always thought that the whole Van's style wouldn't suit me. But after trying them on I fell deeper in love with them and had to purchase! They are a black shoe with leopard print (LOVE!) so I had to buy them. They were £56.99 which is a lot for a shoe but I know they will last through the summer too.


 

Have a look at them HERE and let me know what you think :) too edgy? or what could they be styled with?

Much love, please let me know if you follow so I can come have a look at your blog too!

Victoria's Secret review




I recently went to Westfield, Stratford shopping centre and visited the new Victoria's Secret shop! I have never been to one of their shops before as there hasn't been one near enough to me, but I have to say it was amazing. The store itself is huge and the attention to detail with displays etc is really surreal as it is set out like dressing rooms with big lighting and individual tables for perfumes and drawers for underwear etc.

At first people think that VS is all about underwear, but their beauty and clothes ranges are amazing! They have their own beauty lines and online sell clothes from loads of brands such as UGG and Love Pink. Here's what I think of some of their fragrances:

(The website is only in US Dollars & I can't remember the offer in the UK store sorry!)


'Dazzling Kiss' Body Mist

I bought this fragrance because of the sweet smell. I don't like perfumes that are too fruity, I like to smell fresh but not like a piece of pineapple. I love the packaging of this too, it may sound silly but it matters when it's on display in my bedroom and pink matches :) I definitely recommend this scent!

'Strawberries & Champagne' Body Mist
Amongst the people I know who purchase these fragrances, almost all of them get this one! I however don't really agree. I don't smell the alike-ness to strawberries and champagne, I don't think it even smells as sweet or fruity as strawberries so I'm not sure why it is so appealing. Then again, the packaging is pink.. :)


'Aqua Kiss' Body Mist
I love this scent. It's very 'fresh' and nor fruity or sweet. It sort of smells like a deodrant kind of smell. Quite plain yet still is noticeable. I don't think that this scent is as popular but I can see why people would prefer a more neutral kind of scent instead of a heavily perfumed smell.



Have you tried any fragrances/perfumes at Victoria's Secret? and what was your shopping experience like?
