MW Goodies: Street Princess Jewellery

Hey Whirlers,

How are you all? I recently purchased some goodies from Street Princess, which I`m very excited about! Especially as I had my eye on  a 'Ellie' bracelet for a while.

Let me give you the lowdown on Street Princess. An online jewellery boutique where the Princess is Naheeda, a wonderful chick that I had the pleasure to meet a few months ago at a bloggers meet up in London. Naheeda takes great pride in her work, and it is reflected in the end product where her bracelets are all handmade and are perfect, masha`Allah. She initially did a whole range of jewellery, but is now focussing on her handmade bracelets for a short period. That explains why her rings and necklaces are in the amazing blog sale over on her blog.

I was given the opportunity to purchase a few goodies from Street Princess with 50% discount, and here are the pictures of my purchase:

I`m a sucker for cute packaging. It shows effort and pride in their work, and most importantly, wanting to put a smile on their customers face. Orgazana pouches and little card boxes that are filled with treasures.

Here is a close-up of the packaging. There are mini crowns on one side of the box, which signifies the princess in the name. Totally cute, creative and a lot of thought has gone into the packaging. My bracelets came in this, where it was further wrapped in pink tissue paper to protect the bracelet inside the box.

A further close-up of the packaging. This is the other side of the box, showing the logo of Street Princess. Again, much thought as gone into the whole image of the product as a whole.

With the products, I was give a post card from Naheeda with a personal message. I told you I`m a sucker for cute packaging and the extra effort into putting a smile on your customers face!

'Bow' ring - £2
This was purchased from the blog sale. How cute is this ring? This ring is perfect for me, with chubby fingers, as the ring is expandable.

Riley in Red/Gold
An example of how perfectly made this bracelet is by Naheeda.

Ellie in Nude
This is my favourite product from the purchase! I love elephants.
This bracelet is JUST TOOOOO CUTE!!! I took more photos of this bracelet as I loved it too much!

Another personal touch by Street Princess is to have SP on the ends of the bracelet to stop the bracelet falling off.
It took me a while to get used to this extra weight, and had to be careful not to let it fall into my food,
but again, reflecting the personal touches to Naheeda's work.

I did actually purchase another item, a tribal necklace in antique gold, but when I was taking photos the necklace was sitting in my new necklace board and I was too lazy to go upstairs and bring it down! But, that necklace is also very pretty!!

I think the amount of time and effort Naheeda puts into her jewellery is amazing and truly reflects it in the end product. She has nailed the personal touches, the handmade bracelets are flawless and she has created truly amazing packaging to go with her jewellery, surely to leave her customers with a smile on their face.

MW Goodies: Primark Pickings

Hello Whirlers!

How is everyone's ramadhan coming along? I`m currently at work on my lunch break and blogging! I`m not eating so I might as well use the hour productively. 

Oh, also, I`m going into town more, which isn`t good for my bank account, as I keep buying goodies!!

I popped into Primark and spent a total of £19.00!! And, managed to nab all these bargains!!

1. Scarf.

I think its maxi. Its also really lightweight, so perfect at the moment when we have those summer  moments randomly. Only thing, I don`t like about it is that its really flat, I like scarves that stay looking quite big/volumised. I might have to iron it by running some starch through it, to keep a more structure to the scarf. I hope that makes sense, as I could be talking jibberish due to lack of food!

2. Shirt

I`ve been after a burgundy shirt for a while, and I`ve only started noticing the colour in the autumn/winter catalogues! So, when I saw this shirt on a girl's instagram picture, I had to go out and purchase it!! I absolutely love it! Cannot wait to start wearing it and trying to find loads of new outfits to wear with it. Also, it was a bargain at £3!!! AMAZEBALLS.

3. Jeans

Coloured jeans, another item I`ve been after for a while, and more specifically in burgundy! In this photo, I only included the teal pair, but I did also purchase a burgundy pair. I bought a couple sizes too big, just so it would be comfortable to pray wearing them. I`ve only tried them on so far, they seem really nice. But, again, another two items I cannot wait to mix and match with the rest of my wardrobe.

4. Necklace

I`ve been collecting this type of necklaces, but I have yet been able to wear them out, SIMPLY because I don`t know how to wear it nicely with a scarf!! Can anybody help me? Link me to a youtube video or something?! *cryface*

6. Bracelet

On sale at 50p, couldn`t say no, eh?

Do you like my purchases? Have you recently purchased anything from Primark?

MW's LUSTLIST: Versace for H&M

My Beautiful Whirllers!

I`ve been meaning to do this post for a while, but I suppose this is good timing as the Versace for H&M campaign kicks off tomorrow! I would have loved to be back working in H&M right now. You get free tops from every campaign! I`ve got a couple from when I used to work there, and of course, technically, you get first dibs on products!!

These are the products that caught my eye:

£69.99

£79.99

£19.99

The clothes didn`t really appeal to me, to be honest...except the pink blazer in the mens section! That was hot!

Also, Donatella Versace, herself, will be at the Regents St, London store tomorrow to open the campaign! My nearest one will be holding some pieces, so I will probably avoid the hustle and bustle tomorrow.

What pieces caught your eye? And, will you be at your nearest H&M at 9am tomorrow?

MW's Retro Raid

Whirllers <3

How is everyone? I decided to raid my parents room yesterday and look at the goodies Mama Bear let me keep!!

Okay, so basically, Mama Bear let me keep:

1. A monochrome faux fur clutch - so gorgeous!

2. A chunky necklace

3. A retro watch that Dad used to wear until battery died, it stopped at 4 o'clock lol

4. A two tone peal bracelet.

5. An oriental pouch. She got given a pearl necklace in that. Wasn`t allowed that though lol.

I`m definitely going to raid my parents room in the near future. Sooo many cute things!! 

Have you ever raided and found something cool in your parents room?
