Drop Dead birthday haul

It's no secret that I'm a huge fan of Drop Dead Clothing. Their items feature on pretty much every month's wish list and every time I'm in Central I just find myself magically drawn to their Soho store. So imagine my face when my boyfriend decided to treat me to a big bag of Drop Dead goodies for my birthday! Technically, my birthday isn't till tomorrow, but Joe is possibly one of the worst people at keeping secrets that I've ever come across, so I got all of these a bit early.

Drop Dead Tasty Treat Pendant
I don't usually wear gold jewellery (though I'm quite partial to rose gold), but I'll happily make an exception for this brightly coloured necklace - a cheeky take on the classic Rolling Stones' symbol with a gold tooth. (... And yes, that's an acid tab on its tongue)

Drop Dead Knuckleduster Rings
Boy oh boy do I love these. Admittedly, knuckleduster type rings aren't the most practical to wear when you're doing stuff with your hands, so I won't be wearing these to work, but just how awesome are they?? You can't really see them that well in the black box, so here's a picture of what they look like on:


Excuse the elephant skin, my hands really don't like this harsh winter weather, haha! On a side note, I also love the boxes that all of this jewellery is housed in. Definitely keeping them for display!

Drop Dead Boner Snapback Cap
I do love me a good snapback. It adds instant edge to any outfits and hides a multitude of sins when I can't be bothered to do my hair or if my next root touch up is still a while away! I think Joe was getting fed up of my always stealing his caps, so he bought me one for myself, haha.

Drop Dead Scarf Guy
A nice black scarf is always appreciated as it goes with pretty much anything and this one in particular is so warm and soft! As its a neverending loop shape you also don't have to fiddle about with loose scarf ends dangling around. I particularly love the diamond symbol on it, it matches one of my tattoos on my left arm!

Drop Dead Tripster Sweater
When I saw this I literally ran around in circles across the room. I found a picture of this sweater ages ago and fell in love with it instantly, only to find out that it had been discontinued. You literally couldn't find it anywhere and it had become something of a collectors' item with prices on eBay hitting around £100. Somehow Joe managed to find me the last one on Impericon and I couldn't be happier!
The mouth is actually a little belly pouch which you can pull out to reveal this:

Drop Dead Tripster Sweater
So much fun to be had with a flappy tongue hanging out of your belly! (That sounds a lot weirder written down than it did in my head.) The huge button between the eyes is actually a huge giant button as well. If you ever had a jumper on which you could press a part to make a sound as a kid, you can imagine how I feel wearing this. (...And yes, that's another acid tab on its tongue)

I'm so chuffed with my Drop Dead goodies - I literally love every single item and can't wait to wear it all!
You can find everything bar the Tripster Sweater on the Drop Dead website here.

January Wish List

January Wish List

Grey floral money print t-shirt, River Island, £18 // Rose gold tone cut out knuckle ring, River Island, £5 // Quilt across body bag with rabbit ears, Asos, £18 // Dasi slim holographic jeans belt, Pieces, £7 //  Simone intarsia cardi, Ecote, £45 // Naked 3 Palette, Urban Decay, £37 // Clara dress in ripple print, Whistles, £155 // Bluntly does it t-shirt, Drop Dead, £30 // Black shark print satin front t-shirt, River Island, £20



Some might say it's a tad over-indulgent to start off the new year with a big wish list just as the crazy December spending frenzy comes to an end, but I've actually been holding back on the spending if anything and a little window shopping doesn't hurt anyone. That's my excuse at least.

I've been really impressed with River Island lately. I feel like over the past year or so they've really reinvented themselves and found a new edgy, urban style that lacks all of the tackiness some of their items have displayed in the past. As I scrolled through their latest additions on their website, I fell in love with almost everything, so apologies if this list is a little River Island heavy.

Drop Dead is another brand that never fails to produce clothes I love and I adored this t-shirt when I popped into their Soho store last month.

I put the Whistles dress on my wish list two days ago, but by now it's already sold out on Asos. It's no secret that I'm a huge fan of prints and even though I don't normally wear a lot of dresses I'd quite happily make an exception for this stunner.

And last but not least, the hype around the Naked 3 palette has left me cold for months, MONTHS I tell you, but ever since all those gorgeous pictures and swatches started appearing all over my Blogger and Bloglovin dashboards I can't help but feel a deep seated craving creeping up on me. I already own the Naked 2 palette as well as a huge selection of nude eye shadows, but there's something about the pretty girly rose gold shades in this palette that means I just have to own one. As soon as possible.

June Wish List

June Wish List
White Diamond Print Jacket, Romwe, £40.28 // Ivory Tassel Bracelet, Urban Outfitters, £8 // Fluro Lace Plastic Mac, Topshop, £45 // Cutout Geo Necklace, Forever21, £3.15 // Jordan Wolf Crewneck, Drop Dead Clothing, £50 // Eagle Necklace, Asos, £15 // Photo Dove Tee, Topshop, £16

Admittedly, this month's wish list is a tad top heavy, but I've come to realise that I'm simply not a summery flutter dress kind of gal - and the recent weather has had me craving something warm and snuggly to throw over.
The star of this month's list has got to be that Topshop coat. Neon, lace and pvc all in one? It shouldn't work, but it so does and I would undoubtedly get a lot of use out of it in these grey and rainy conditions.
When I first heard that Olli Sykes, lead singer of Bring Me The Horizon, had his own clothing brand I was a tad skeptical - but after having a bit of a rummage through Drop Dead Clothing's site I found myself liking most of the items on there, particularly the wolf jumper.
I'm also a major fan of the diamond baseball jacket by Romwe - this type of diamond is exactly the style I want as part of my tattoo sleeve!
