Winter Jacket Wishlist


winter jackets


I don't know about anyone else but I've definitely noticed a drop in the temperature over the last week. For the first time this season I've felt like a winter coat is becoming appropriate and my gilet is not keeping me quite as cosy as I'd like to be! So bring on winter; the snuggley coats, hot chocolate and huge scarves!

For me, finding the perfect jacket that I know I'll get lots of wear out of isn't always easy but above are a few winter jackets I've found that I would love to add to my wardrobe for this season!

Have you got your eye on any winter jackets? Or purchased yourself a new winter coat? Let me know in the comments or tweet me @_bowsandbuttons

Lush Christmas and Halloween 2015 Wishlist

Lush Christmas 2015


Finally the Lush Halloween and Christmas 2015 products have hit the shelves! One of the highlights of the Christmas season for me is seeing what new products Lush has to offer and also stocking up on my beloved seasonal shower gels (Snow fairy...obviously). However, as much I'd love to rush to my local Lush and buy it all, my bank balance is saying that's probably not a good idea for now. But here are the particular products I've got my eyes on!

Because who doesn't want to have a cute bat containing Lush goodies? And to smother a cranberry face mask all over their face? There's some new products and some oldies but goodies to get your hands on from the seasonal collection! 

Have you stocked up on any of the Lush seasonal collection? Let me know what products you want to try but commenting below or tweeting me @_bowsandbuttons

Weekly Wishes #2



Just a few things that I've seen lately I think are extremely cute, useful or smell nice!

1) I've been wanting to try products from This Works for ages and at this time of year they bring out the most adorable miniature gift sets! The perfect opportunity to try new products at the fraction of the price! 

2) I'm a bit bored of my current bags... I say bags, I mean my two bags that I use. I wouldn't mind getting a couple of little satchels for when I don't need to be carrying around a big handbag.

3) My hair has been feeling extremely dry lately, I don't know if it's the cold weather or something else but I've good things about Lush hair masks. I am so am tempted to try one of these out!

4) I love Makeup Revolution, I've got a few of their lipsticks, which I don't use every day but I love wearing them and for only £1 I don't really mind that they're not part of my every day makeup. I'm really loving their darker berry shades for winter!

5) I think these may be the cutest slippers ever!

6) I've been after a travel cup for ages but always been hesitant as I'm not sure if I'd get much use out of it but they do have some really nice ones for Christmas gifts!

7) Vanilla just smells amazing and therefore this one is pretty self explanatory!


What are you wishing for? Let me know in the comments or tweet me @_bowsandbuttons

Gossimar Wings Review*

"Gossimar Wings is an online jewellery boutique specializing in statement jewellery, including necklaces, earrings, bracelets and rings.Based in the UK and founded in 2012. Gossimar Wings brings statement jewellery at affordable prices, and has been seen on many celebrity clients."

Now that winter has well and truly come around, I've dug out my cosy jumpers and have attempting to find ways to accessorize them and add a bit of colour. An easy way to transform a winter outfit is by simply adding some statement jewelery, this can quickly complete an outfit! While I usually prefer more delicate jewellery I think statement pieces effortlessly can change a boring dull wintery outfit to something girly, classy and perfect for this season.

The jewellery shown is from an online boutique called "Gossimar Wings",  many celebrities are wearing their pieces (you can see on there Facebook page here!), however despite the high quality and popularity among celebs they offer a wide range of affordable pieces and something to suit everyone!

The necklace I'm wearing is the Lyanna necklace, although it's big (obviously because it's statement jewellery!) I feel that the pink keeps it looking classy and not too "in your face". In the past something that has scared me away from statement jewelery is that it would look tacky and too bold but I think this necklace looks gorgeous! The Lyanna necklace is also available in white and blue which is amazing as I think its a simple, yet beautiful and very wearable design!
The bracelet I'm wearing is the Starlight bracelet, think it looks gorgeous paired with the necklace or on its own! I'm loving with the rope detail which makes it very easy to wear, it doesn't get in the way when you're wearing it which maybe you'd expect from statement jewellery. This piece is also available in a few different colours so if pink isn't for you there are other choices! I must admit it is something I love about Gossimar Wings, a lot of the products are available in different colours which means if you like a design you can choose the colour you think you'd get the most wear out of or have all the colours to go with different outfits!

Personally, I think the pieces they offer are extremely versatile and well worth the money! You'll have to try them out for yourselves to see if you agree! I definitely think this would also look great for an evening look, simply paired with a little black dress it would perfect for a Christmas do or night out. If you're struggling to think of what to get maybe your mum, sister or friend for Christmas I think a piece from Gossimar wings would make a lovely present! They're affordable but amazing quality and I'd love to receive one of these on Christmas day! I'm definitely going to be purchasing some more jewelerry for Gossimar Wings very soon, I've got my eye on the Frozen necklace, Sienna bracelet and the Anais necklace!
