Pina-phwarr!

Spotty Playsuit Pinny / Plain Black /  Dress Style Pinny
Decided to play on words in the title there, I know I'll regret naming this post 'Pinaphawr' soon, but what the heck, it seemed necessary at this moment of time. I am loving Pinafores at the moment, they're just too cute, a striped top and plain black pinafore would look amazing. They're so classic and they're cinched in the the waist to give a more flattering fit *gushing*, they differ from all other kinds of playsuits. 
I actually featured the Topshop black ones in my January wishlist and they are yet to belong to me, but, soon. The other two are both from Miss Selfridge, the one with large spots is a playsuit and the little spot ones is a dress. Such an imaginative way to describe them, go me!
ASOS Pinafore 
I am in love with this pinafore, I love the pattern and the style and colours, everything. It's really cute, I do want, but I find it rather daring as I normally choose safe options and go for a plain colour that's easy to style, I really need to break out of this 'safe' habbit I got going on.

Aya Loves : January Wish List

Top/Shorts/Chelseas Boots/Pinafore/Bow Shoes/Dress/Heels/Sunglasses

As always, I've gotten shoe crazy, my Chelsea boots obsession is still here, how many black pairs do I need I ask myself, but just look at them staring at me, give me a home they be telling me. My favourite from the list are the Topshop heels and the cute pinafore also from Topshop ooh and the Miss Selfridge shorts, they have lace on the sides, can never go wrong with a bit of lace.

Some may wonder, why are there sunglasses on your little wishlist Aya, oh so early in the year? My answer, I can't wait for summer again, not that we had a summer in England last year (drought my arse) but this year I shall be absorbing the sun rays of Florida, the scent of Mickey Mouses erm ears and checking out the American boys, you can't do cheeky check outs on eye candies abroad without sunglasses now can you ;) Also have you seen how cute they are? I've always wanted to purchase Tortoise shell sunglasses but always forgetting that I wanted some and getting a completely different pair that don't even fit my incredibly tiny head, ah yai.
Leotard/Shorts/Top
Miss Selfridge is one of my favourite clothing store, closely followed by Topshop. I just seem to love everything they offer and right now I'm loving the cut out top and shorts above, shame they didn't have any in the store I went to. I also fell completely and utterly in love with the leotard you see above. Usually I don't give leotards a second look as I find them to be a massive pain in the A-Hole (not as in they hurt my bottom...metaphor guys, twas a metaphor) but this was so pretty and very Victorian Era-esque, with the gothic black lace and it's got the turtle neck thing going on, Queen Victoria would definitely wear this, I think. Trying it on was a challenge though...the struggle I was faced trying not to rip the material or lace and keeping my hair in tact, to think they could make it a little more stretchy or have poppers at the bottom, because this will be a bitch when needing to use the lavatory.

Aya Loves' : Wishlist

Dress / Scarf / Shoes / Velvet Shorts / Snazzy Hot Pants
Before I say anything..let us just admire the beauty of that dress and those shoes (currently annoying my family with the web pages of these, seen as they'd make a perfect birthday present hehe) *sigh* 
I also tried on the Velvet shorts from Topshop...I bloody lov'em!!!! only problem, they are a little bit big, so go a size down, but other than that, they are perfect. Also, they have this really cute delicate gold button on the front, so cute! 
Also, don't you just love the look of those embellished hot pants from Miss Selfridge? (also, Ah damn you typo, Photoshop need to start automatically checking spellings, but I'm sure you all know I meant 'Selfridge') They are perfect for a night out, they are a little bit short though, I noticed this once I tried them on hehe, Oh and they're also available in Petite, yay!

Gettin' Inked...

For all my life, I have always found myself against the old body ink, on myself that is, I love tattoos on others, especially men, come to mama, and have vowed never to get myself a tattoo,  as I'll probably regret it when I'm like 140 and all wrinkled and gangster, however, recently I have been quite obsessed by certain looks of some tattoo's, they're just eye so eye-catchingly beautiful and just fantasticallyooozingly AMAZING! 
So if I were to get a Tatted up, which is quite unlikely as I'd probably collapse at the sight of the buzzing needle, that's not an exaggeration, you should see how I'm like getting an injection, I have to be pinned down and restrained, these are the few I'd consider :)
My Favourite <3
Beautifully elegant and simple.




The Dandelion with the birds is my absolute favourite. LOVE LOVE LOVE. 
I really do love the simpleness and elegance of these tattoos, if I were to get one, I won't go to the extreme and get a sleeve or a giant skull on my face haha 
The other day i was browsing on Miss Selfridge website (you're probably thinking, OK, what the hell, what has this got to do with tattoos, just wait...) they have a great sale at the moment, and came across these babies...
Yes, Temp tattoos, I was so giddy when I saw them, there's more, but they're of stars, and I'm not a fan of stars. I really love the feather ones, it's just so lovely. However, i do wish they could bring out more designs THE DANDELION ONES! just saying ;) hehe.
I shall soon invest in these and maybe do a blog about it. I'll probably fail at it though. ever since i was a kid, i never mastered the art of successfully transferring Spiderman temporary tattoo's on my arm, I was a very challenged child.
So pop into your nearest Miss Selfridge, if you want, and buy these, they're only £2 

Until Next Time, 
Bon Voyage 
(yeah I used that in the wrong context didn't I)
