SELLING Imitation Nude Louboutin's!!

Me and my mum are having a bit of a saga with these shoes at the moment and she just wants to be rid of them! Here is the story short:
She originally bought them off a 'discounted fashion brands' website, thinking they were just out of season discounted REAL Louboutin's but when they arrived, I did some digging, and found out that they were imitation shoes, very pretty, but fake none the less. Now, the first pair she bought, didn't fit, so she ordered another pair, and they didn't fit either, so these do run small to size. She wants to sell them because they aren't real ones (she'd prefer to save up for real ones) and they don't fit her! Ebay keep taking down our listings because even if you write they aren't real Louboutin's, we still can't sell them (annoying). I've directed her to more trustworthy discount websites now, so hopefully she won't make the same mistake, but she spent a fair few pennies on these shoes and I want to get at least a bit of her money back for her! They are lovely shoes, not been worn except to try on and its really peeing me off that the company wouldn't refund her and that ebay won't let us sell them! So I am resorting to the blogging sphere! If you don't want them, please RT to help me sell them!

Postage will be £2.40 second class, or pick up! Payment via Paypal please!

These are the size 3.5s (says 36 on the sole of the shoe). They come with the box and every thing you see in the photos. I am looking to get £50-60 for them, or the next best offer.




These are the 5s (size 38 on the sole) and once again, comes with every thing you see in the photos. Box is slightly damaged, but the shoes are fine, £50-60 or next best offer please!




As you can see they are beautiful shoes, and if one pair fitted me I would keep them x3 but they are a bane in my life now and I just want to get rid of them, at a reasonable price for my mother! Please help me sell them!!

STAY BEAUTIFUL and thank you for reading!

On the Cheap: Ebay is your friend!

Hello my lovelies! How are you today? Yes, finally bringing this back with a whole new post! Ebay is your friend! And boy have I felt that recently!

Imagine this heart is ebay
This post is mainly going to be about cheap fashion, as I think buying clothes cheaply is just as important as everything else! As you might remember, in this month of July I am doing a challenge where I only buy clothes and a few other things 2nd hand!! So obviously, I looked to ebay, as well as Charity stores, which are also your friend, but that's another post ;)

Many of you know of ebay, in fact, I would be surprised if you haven't! Ebay is the largest online auction site and have websites for all over the world. You can buy ANYTHING on ebay, and I mean ANYTHING! There have been stories of people selling their virginity! I don't you can sell your pet on there...at least, I haven't seen any!



Now this post is about buying clothes on ebay. Especially if you are on a budget, like I am! The first thing I say about buying clothes on ebay is know what you want!! Say you are looking for a lovely new dress, then look for only dresses!
Another tip I have is only bid on one thing at a time, as you never know what you might actually win and you don't want to risk getting a bank charge for going over your limit!
To further help yourselves, I suggest giving your self a budget for each item. I never go over £10 including p&p if I am buying something second hand. I rarely go over £5 if I can help it!

You can find the loveliest things on ebay, often by sellers who haven't even worn them! Heres a couple of my recent purchases:
Gorgeous Pink Nighty  ~ I only had to pay £3.20 for this, plus £1.50 for the P&P and I was thrilled! If you are familiar with ebay, you will know about 'Snipers', which are buyers that put a bid in at times even as little as 10 seconds left, VERY annoying! I was highly expecting to be outbid (since I put a max bid of £4) or sniped on this and I wasn't which made me so happy!!

Lovely Silky Nightwear ~ As you can see I have a thing of buying more lady like night wear at the moment, I am highly bored of unattractive tracksuit type pants and a baggy t-shirt! I don't mind t-shirt nighties, which are very comfy, but I think that might be the limit for sloppy night wear for me now! As you can see for these, I payed pittance. £3.20 all together, which I think is brilliant!

Shoooes ~ Now, some of my older followers might think, huum, I recognise these Kitty! That is because my faithful pair of M & S shoes that I have loved all the way to New York and back are falling apart. It was a sad time for me when I noticed a hole in my shoe, realising I will finally have to throw them away. So I search ebay for a new pair of rubber type shoes for when its raining and LO AND BEHOLD I spot these. I nearly cried with happiness! As you can see, I was quite desperate to buy these, though my current pair are size 6, they are a bit on the tight side so fingers crossed, 7s should be okay! I put a bit more money into this bid, just because I was so desperate to buy, but I wouldn't of gone over £8 no matter how desperate! Someone did try to snipe me at the last moment, but my max bid buffed them out, YAY!



Now, I will warn you, darlings, of the sometimes dangers of buying/selling on ebay. I have only ever had one bad encounter, out of many so don't be too scared. But CHECK THE RATINGS! And read the negative ones very carefully if there are any! I feel, if they have over 10 negatives in 1 month, don't buy from them, especially if one of the negative comments is about an item the same or similar to what you want to buy!

That's it for todays 'On the Cheap' I hope you enjoyed my little insight to ebay and the wonders it holds! What do you think of ebay, have you bought anything nice from it recently?

STAY BEAUTIFUL!!

West Quays and Temptation!

Today, as you may of read in my Tuesday outfit post, that I went to West Quay's in Southampton! (See my Outfit and Look of the Day Here). I live near Portsmouth, so it was about a 40 minute journey in the car. The weather was horrible, cloudy and wet, which was why we went to West Quay, as opposed to Chichester!
The first thing I saw when I got there was the newish Ikea. It was HUUGGGEEEEEEE. My photo holds it no justice!
This was about 1pm, SO GRIM
So big and blue and BIG. Did I mention it was big? I've only ever been to an Ikea once. I haven't gone in this one yet, but good god do I want too!!
Once we were parked up, we decided to get lunch first, to build up the energy to shop!! I immediately spotted Yo!Sushi and grabbed (my mum paid for) a Yo!To Go Fish Roll box and an orange juice:
You can just see my Cath Kidston phone case, I will tell you about that later in the week. But omg the sushi was noiiiice. I am not sure what the fish was, one was definitely crab sticks, but the other I wasn't sure. Think it was Tuna? What ever it was, it was so nice!! My mum just got a McDonalds and a cuppa. I kept the mini bottle of soy sauce, I always do ;D
We hit the shops, the first shop being Dorothy Perkins, because my mum had seen some shoes in another Dorothy Perkins and wanted to see if this store had them in her size. I decided to see if they had any closed toe wedges, preferably lace up ones. AND LO AND BEHOLD:
Oh £42 of beigey lace upy wedgey goodness, why must I find you, March is not till next month! SO I MUST RESIST. Thats right ladies and gentlemen. I HAVE NOT BOUGHT THEM. Yet. Frugal February shall be till the end!
We browsed Next, where I made my mum try on a dress she was dubious about, but looked really nice on. Then she bought it and the matching jacket and another jacket and skirt set (she has a lot of interviews and training presentations to present. She needs suits) which she said she wouldn't of even tried on if I wasn't there to encourage her. Just call me Gok Wan kekekekeke. I did see some lovely things in H&M and New Look, especially a really pretty summer bag I have my eye on, this one. I WANT IT SO BAD. But I must once again wait, wait till March.
From the top floor of West Quay's, before we began shopping. I swear they put the food on the top floor so you work up an appetite as you make your way up!
Towards the end of the trip, I spied Millies Cookies, then Dream Cupcakes. I went for the cupcake!
I'd already taked off most of the icing to eat by the time I remembered a photo! It was a Tutti Frutti Cupcake, blueberry frosting and multi-coloured vanilla sponge. It was so petty inside!
Look how bright the colours are!!!

So I went shopping, but resisted buying temptation!! My mum bought me the cupcake ;D And it is Tea and Cake Tuesday, so I wasn't naughty for having the cupcake either! Woo hoo! Hopefully I can get those things I wanted, in March! Especially those shoes!!

Fashion Blog: My Winter Addiction!!

Hello girls! Since its Friday, its time for a Fashion/Beauty blog!! And today we are focusing on Fashion!!
With every passing season, there comes new fashions, and I am not one to follow trends that much, but usually there is at least one thing I like from the seasonal offerings. MOST things I dislike...hareem pants? No thanks. Faux fur coats? Hmmmm, bit too cougar for me. JEGGGINGS? OH GOD NO!!
But all is not lost for my fashion sense. So what am I addicted too this season? Why BOOTS of course!! Who doesn't love a comfy pair of boots to keep your feet warm during the cold months? From ankle to thigh high, every woman SHOULD own a pair of boots!! Currently I only have heeled boots, but a flat pair is the next to join my collection! Talking of collections, here is mine!
Now, I only have five pairs, but I can see by the end of Winter, that will increase...especially since I already have my eye on two pairs!! One from River Island:
And these from Peacocks!! Need the River Island boots first though, they are essentially flats!! Now lets get back to my collection :D Starting with the smallest first, these are my brogues from New Look, bought ages ago so you probably won't find them in stores now! I do love broguey boots:
New Look
These boots at the moment are my most 'practicle' pair. They are my faux flats xD. I wear them when I want to wear boots and heels but not really high heels!!
Next, lets have my second pair! This lovely set of boots from Irregular Choice mmmmmm so pretty!
Irregular Choice
I love these boots so much!! I would wear them AAAAALLLLLL the time if it wasn't for the pain they can cause as they are uncomfy if you wear them while walking to much!! I wear them when I want an OMPH to my outfit, mostly on days where I am wearing dark clothes!
The next pair is my ebay grab which I got at like three times less than the original price!! They are original Dorothy Perkins boots which I got for about £7 on ebay!!
Dorothy Perkins
I love these boots! I don't really like pointy shoes, but I feel in love with these and had to buy!! They are a tad on the big side but fit perfectly with fluffy thick socks!! Sooooo comfy and they make me sway when I walk haha!!
Second to last are my second newest pair, my beauties from New Look (which my friend bought the exact same pair recently >:( copying me! ) These are my go to boots when its cold or I just want very warm feet and comfy feet!!
New Look
Mmmmmmm love these lace up boots, I think lace ups are my current faves in the boots trend!! And the fleecy inside is so soft and warm!! Love these (wearing them today actually ;D)
Last but not least is my longest boots, since I have fat calves I don't tend to buy past ankle, but I HAD to have these, for £17 and really nice, I had to buy these!
Quality Seconds!
Yup, Quality Seconds!! Never turn your nose up at any shop, you never know where the hidden gems lie!! I always go into every shop, whether its associated with grannies or not (apart from Bonmarche, which I approached once with my mum and decided, indeed, this was a loss!). Quality Seconds does have some nice stuff at cheaper prices!!
So thus ends my boots collection, but watch this space, its going to grow as the cold months pass!!

Haul Post :D

Hey guys! Here is a quick haul post as I am in pain in my side for some reason xD

I went shopping during the week when I was feeling ill, to make myself feel better, and bought some things for meeee!! And saw something I wanted which I went and bought the next day ;D

So here is what I bought!!

The pick n mix and the galaxy was 99p ;D NOM NOM NOM I love the 99p store cause if you want a quick treat the little tubs of pick n mix arn't so big that you can put a sickly amount of sweets in it, its just right in size.
Here is closer up pictures!
Needed a new one of these since my Hello Kitty one was on its last legs. Love these
£1 pearly blue liquid eyeliner that resists smudging and a bit of water? Yes please!
I was so ill I wore JEANS OMG and nice bit of card for drawing cards on...haha
Was recommended this for my eyelashes and it works well, though a bit clumpy :D
My third MUA lipstick, I am addicted
Haven't added to my collection in a while so here are some pastel shades :D
Kids ear muffs cause adults are too big for my head :(
I'm being Alice tomorrow ;D
Gonna cut the fingers off to make them like her gloves in the TB movie
Charity store find ;D
A water proof shopping bag, just what I needed!
And what I went back for the next day were these babies, my last self purchase for the month ;D

I love these so comfy!! And good for winter ;D
Now to go as in unbearable pain D:

Fridays Post with shoes, ASDA and Toads!!

Hello ladies!! I hope you had a good weekend!! I did, it was especially nice warm weather! On Friday it was cloudy but it was warm, so warm I didn't need the jeans I was going to wear so I ended up going out like this:
Dress from Peacocks (I think), Cardigan from Select, Brown belt from Primarni (I think)
In the morning my boyfriends cats greet me as I am the first up and they are hungry!! His mum usually feeds them in the morning but if they are particulary hungry and yelling for food, I will feed them!!

This is Lolli (so named by boyfies little sister (Lollipop)

This is Cushca or Cush for short (No photos please is what shes saying haha!)
Both cats are very pretty I think and I adore them to bits!! Lolli is just coming up to three years and Cushca is a year and a half, they are Mother and Daughter, the father was a cat called Cobe but because he isnt neutered, he keeps running away!! He came back for a day last week looking all scruffy and matted but we couldn't keep him in long enough to get him sorted and he hasn't come back again!! He is a black long haired cat so he needs brushing and stuff! As you can see Cush has Lolli's fur patterning, but takes after Cobe in body shape and face shape and the long coat!!
I got my AS Results Friday as well but I only got two C's so the less said about that the better haha!!

Little sister with Lolli, she just got up!

When my boyfie got home, he got ready and then we went into town!! On the bus of course, I know the buses in Hull like I know the buses in Portsmouth!! We passed this quaint little shop that told dolls houses and all the little bits to go with it!
I want a Dolls House D:

He wouldn't let me take a picture of him so I took a sneaky one:
Lovely angle 8D

Once we were in town I decided to check out New Look for some shoes I wanted. Not only did they have the ones I wanted they had BETTER ONES that were a fiver more but stuff it, its winter shoes!! I shall show you them shoes later!! After looking around the shops, we walked to our friends house (which kinda too like half an hour) and on the way I got a picture with one of the 'Larkin with Toads' project!
Punkphibian!!

Also, check out this cool burnt out building! Its a shame they put a massive sky advert infront of it >:(
When  we met up with one of our friends who had walked up to meet us, we went to get something to eat as we hadn't had any lunch! We went in to subway but I don't like it AND it was sweltering in there, so we left our friend and went to the chippy next door! The subway our friend got was the Spicy Italian and I swear it was just all meat!!
Our friend checking out the menu
A big meat filled (squashed) sub!
The chippy ~ Pacific Catch
Mmmmm fish with chips and gravy!!
I always get chips with gravy when I am up north as you don't get it down south for some weird reason (cause souther chippies suck?) Its soooo nice, the best thing to go with chips EVER!!
On the way I saw this sign:
Surely thats advertising!
We got to our friends house and I finished off my lunch before telling our other friend to let his dog out!! The poor thing has just had his balls chopped off and had a big cone, but that didnt stop him jumping all over us!
Boyfie is mauled
He is such a cutey though, but his nails don't half need trimming! They are sharp and I was left with scratches on my legs! I will let him off though:
Can't stay mad at this face!

The friends have a car so we all proceeded to go to ASDA (Friday's is pay day and shopping day, me and the boyfie always go shopping Friday both food and other)
Just incase you don't know what ASDA looks like hur hur hur
YAY FOR 24 HOUR cause by the time we got there it was like half seven!! It may look forbodingly cloudy but it was still warm!!
£55's worth of shopping that is! Just for me and the boyfie! I should of taken it after our friend opened the boot, there was NO room with their shopping already in there!
We then proceeded to cross the road and drive to McDonalds, where our friends bought large meals (they are fatties haha) and me and my boyfie got a Mars milkshake between us (because I wanted to try it). We then went to our friends 'spot of shame' where they eat their McDonalds, rather than in the resturant (which was packed) or in the carpark (where the boyfie proceeded to make one of our friends drop his glass!) I was taking pictures with my flash and one of our friends thought it was lightning and proceeded to stick his head out the window to watch for more. I thought he was joking at first but when we realised he was being serious we all burst out laughing!!
Greedy so and sos
The face of embarrasment. No, there was no lightning only a southerner with a camera!
Our friends arn't scary at all...honest!
This big scary box thing was though, kept flapping in the wind
After they finished their McDonalds, they drove us home where we sat in the boyfies room and laughed about stuff for about half an hour and I put on my new shoes and took pictures!! They are my Autumn/Winter shoes!! Fake suade and fleece lining mmmmm gonna be warm!
Mine and our friends feet
You can have them down like this (they have poppers to keep the sides down)
Or done up like this!

I love these shoes so much and the heel is chunky and not to high so they are comfy to walk in!! The fleece lining is soft and warm so I hope these will last me through the winter months!!

Okay thats enough of our Friday and of picture spam, need to do the weekend blog!!
