September Favourites

A couple for my favourite bits and bobs that I have been enjoying this month...

Clothes

I have been absolutely loving Bershka this month! Back home there isnt a shop near me but here they are all over France. I love the fashion and it is sooo cheap. I purchased some jeans, 3 tops and skirt all for 60 euros the other day. Not too shabbyy. The crochet/lace top I am wearing below was in the Bershka sale for 9.99 euros. 

Sephora

Oh its tempting. Its oh so tempting. I have only bought a couple of things so far but one of which was the Urban Decay Naked Basics Pallette. Im very excited to try it out! 


TV
Top of the Lake
I was recently sent the DVD of 'Top of the Lake' - a drama which was aired on BBC2 a few months ago back. If you enjoy watching mystery-suspense programs this is worth a watch! It is full of twists throughout - I am only part way through it but I would definitely recommend so far.

Great British Bake Off

This program staggers me how every time I watch it I get so absorbed and tense about the rise of the dough or consistency of the custard. If you don't watch it - do. Very easy watch on a Tuesday evening!

Music

I have been loving all sorts this month. In particular I have enjoyed:
Lana Del ReyHer whole album but especially Summertime Sadness and Blue Jeans

The Other TribeThis is one of the bands I saw at Fieldview Festival this year. If you haven't heard of them definitely give Skirts and We Should Be Dancing.
Bears DenThey are very chilled and amazing musicians - if you enjoy Mumford and Sons or City and Colour then give them a listen.
James Blake
He never gets tiresome, Retrograde is amazing.



What have you enjoyed throughout September?

Favourites

I was going to do 'March Favourites' but it appears time moves too quickly these days haha. So these are my 'current favourites'...


Shopping again.. oops.

Disco Pants Dupes
I heard that Primark do disco pants and have literally been looking for them everytime I go in the shop. The other day I finally found them and its safe to say that I am in loveeee <3

Disco Pants - Primark (£15)

Crop tops
Crop tops used to make me think of the Spice Girls and dangerous exposure of mid-rifts. However recently I have been finding them a staple for nights out - I have a few lace tops which paired with a plain high-waisted skirt only show a peep of skin and are actually now one of my go-to outfits. Definitely a new love!

Crop Top - Topshop (£16)


Chelsea Boots
This is the third pair of identicle chelsea ankle boots I have purchased (all three from different places) as I love the design and find they go with actually everything. This particular pair are from Diechmann which used to be online-only but recently I found a real-life shop in my local town which was exciting indeed. They were super cheap at about £17. - If you don't have one nearby take a look online as its free delivery + returns.

Chelsea Boots - Diechmann (£17)

Van looky-likes
Another shoe-favourite are these bargain (£6) van look-a-likes from Primark. Can't go wrong really.

'Vans' - Primark (£6)

Music

Nothing much new but obsessed with Mirrors by Justin Timberlake - I could have it on repeat constantly. Also liking Chocolate by The 1975 - my friend showed me it and I lovesss it.


The Box

Downton Abbey
A bit late in the game on this one but I started watching it from Season 1 the other day and have already finished it (too much free time) - can't wait for season 4!

Homeland
I got through both seasons of this in the space of a few weeks - it's so gripping! Definitely reccomend it.
