Weekly Wishlist Wants!!

So this was *supposed* to go up yesterday (well technically 2 days ago as it's 12:23AM) but I was busy!
I've seen people on the blogosphere post their "wishlist wants" as such so decided I would make it a weekly feature. So you people can see what I'm lusting over! Everything this week is kinda expensive and a bit more higher end but hey ho, I've been feeling like spoiling myself and this is the stuff top of my wishlist. Here are five things I've been lusting over!

1. Marc Jacobs Daisy Sunshine Perfume 50ml.
So I have wanted this since I heard about it. My mum has the original and to be honest I'm not the BIGGEST fan over it. Though I love the packaging and Marc Jacobs perfumes. I thought the original Daisy was a little played down in scent so I'm hoping this one will smell a bit more vibrant! I think I will buy this sooner or later!

2. Michael Kors Jet Set silver watch.
This is gorgeous....and I need it. ;) Just kidding. Though I do REALLY want it. I have a rose gold MK watch and adore it so the silver one is pretty much a neccessity for me at this stage and it was always only a matter of time before I indulged in another Michael Kors watch!

3. Iron Fist Heels.
Don't remember the actual name of these type of heels but I saw them on Amazon when I was online shoe shopping for my Iron Fist flats before and have adored them ever since. I'm not the biggest heel wearer but do like an occasional heel! These are so pretty and rather gaudy which is totally my style. Yet they still have that edge and don't look tacky (well maybe a little!).

4. Michael Kors Jet Set White Bag.
UGHHHHHHHH! This bag is amazing. It's so pretty, chic, elegant, you name it! It's just so beautiful! I want this so badly! I might take a trip down to Biecester Village to check this one out! I will probably never buy it but when it comes to my birthday this will be top of my list!

5. Real Techniques Core Collection Kit.
I have never tried Real Techniques but I'm dying too. And what better way to get introduced than a core collection?! The brushes look amazing and such good quality. I'm surprised I haven't bought any yet. They don't stock them in my local Boots. But I might just purchase them online. Look out for these to appear on my blog because me buying them is most likely going to happen!

So that was my weekly wishlist wants. Hope you enjoyed. And tell me your five most wanted things in the comments or tweet me!

YAY!

Perfume Review: Nicki Minaj: Pink Friday.

                                                                   

Hello and welcome to my very first blog post. This is my new blog "When Shadows Remain". I really wanted to start a blog because it looks like so much fun. I would really like to take a second to say hi and I hope you like the content on this blog :) 


Onto the review. 

I bought this perfume as both an impulse buy and a gift. It was a gift for my little sister but I bought it a bit randomly. As it is for my sister I probably won't end up wearing it as often but I will definitely be allowed to share it as we share quite a lot, if not all, of our perfumes. I really don't like most celebrity made perfumes as I feel they are all quite the same smelling and sometimes a bit too tryhard. That being said, I do actually own quite a few celebrity perfumes. This is definitely a surprise to me! 

I really thought that it wouldn't smell very nice considering that it was a Nicki Minaj perfume. I really wasn't sure what to make of the scent. I bought this from "The Perfume Shop" kiosk at my local shopping centre and they didn't have any testers (boohoo perfume shop! You need to sort that out!) and they wouldn't let you return it if you had opened it. So to be honest I was rather skeptical. I had no idea about the smell and was just going by the packaging and most probably the fact that my sister was a Nicki Minaj fan!

The Bottle:
The bottle to me is absolutely beautiful. I really like the body and head design! I think it's really unique and fun. The only thing I don't like is that the 30ml bottle DIDN'T come with the head as the bottle cap! It only came with the 50ml! 

The Fragrance:
It smells AMAZING! Very nice scent. It's very fruity and fresh and flowery and definitely more of a light day, summer scent! 
Top notes include Boysenberry, Starfruit and Italian Mandarin. And there is definitely an undertone of flowery goodness.

The Packaging:
The box is typical "Celeb" perfume box. Of course it is PINK and has a big picture of Nicki Minaj on the back of the box. It's very much expected for this perfume.


Price: 30ml (smalll)- £23.50 
50ml (bigger)- £28.50
(It came with a free laptop case which was actually really pretty but didn't actually fit my laptop)
I would overall rate this perfume a 4.5/5.
It also lasts pretty long! I would definitely recommend this perfume for the summer. Definitely check this one out!

So that concludes my review (and first blog post) hope you enjoyed it and I will try and improve!
