Valentine's Gift Ideas | For Him & For Her


Valentine's Day is almost here and I believe than many of you, man and woman, are wondering what to give to your other half. Me and my boyfriend made a deal this year to not buy anything for Valentine's Day, just to enjoy our time together and go out (even though I think that he already broke the deal - I've noticed a couple of amazon deliveries that he keeps hiding..).
But anyways, I know that many couples enjoy giving something to their loved ones, to show them how much they care, appreciate and know how lucky they are to have each other.
So for those loved ones, I put together six Valentine's Day Gift Ideas for him and for her. You just have to click in the store link and you will be redirected to the website.
I really hope you find this helpful. 


1 - Sony MDR-V55 DJ Stereo Headphones . For the music loves. Amazon, £28.98
2 - Personalized Gifts - A puzzle this time. If you are cheesy like me, you love these things. I got one for my boyfriend and he really liked it. You can order them at Snapfish.
3 - One Million for Men - this perfume is amazing, honestly. And what man doesn't love a good perfume? Superdrug, £46,00
4 - For the Game Addicts: Last of Us . This game is surreal. My boyfriend has it for PS4 and he loves it and you know what? I do too. Great image quality, a story behind the game that keeps you going. I do recommend this one. If your boyfriend is a game addict, go for this one. Amazon, £33,99
5 - Jeff Banks Leather Belt. Some men really appreciate a nice, good leather belt. Classic gift, love it. Debenhams, £25.00
6 - Have you ever thought how cool GoPro is but still you can't give all that money for a camera? So that is where this baby - SJCAM SJ4000 - comes in. I bought this for Christmas for my boyfriend. I wasn't too sure about the quality but I did some research and many people said that it is as great as the GoPro but much more affordable. So I decided to give it a try. I was really surprised with the quality of the videos to be honest. You can do some great things with it, play around and you will really enjoy. Just be careful when you buy them online. There is a fake one going around so make sure you do some research to know the differences before you buy it. Ebay, £58,98



1 - A women never says no to a bag. This is a Navy Block Colour Bowler Bag from River Island, £40,00
2 - Michael Kors Watch. Classy, elegant, beautiful watch.
3 - New Look Necklace, £9,99
4 - Again, a personalized gift - a mug. Snapfish makes some beautiful ones. I have one myself and it is the cutest thing. Snapfish, starting from £7,99
5 - You name a girl that doesn't like makeup? Well I don't know that many. If your other half does love makeup, the Naked on the Run is another perfect gift for her! Debenhams, £37.00
6 - Fujifilm Instax Mini 8. The cutest polaroid camera. This one is in my wish list. Amazon, starting from £59,99

So this is it my loves. I do hope that this post has helped you in any way. If it is not for Valentine's, then for someones birthday or any other occasion - you name it.

Hope you are all having a lovely day.

Love,

My Perfect Outfit for Autumn

Hello everybody!

October is here and so is Autumn and I must say that I absolutely love this season. It is not warm but also it is not to could so you can almost wear anything that you have in you wardrobe if you play around with your clothes.
Again, I am no expert when it comes to fashion/beauty but I do love to play up some outfits with what I have and what I don't have. So today I am here to show you what for me is one of many perfect Autumn outfits.
Now that (almost) every store is on 20% sale for students for a couple of days, I thought it was a good idea to do this.
This full outfit is from River Island. They have that 20% sale for students until tomorrow so you better hurry up!
Next and New look are also doing that, I think so make sure you go to their website and check them out! (click in the name of the store and it will re-direct you to the website)
What a shame that I am not a student anymore...

Moving on to the outfit, drum roll please.....

Trousers: £20 (on sale)
Crop Top: £10 (on sale)
Boots: £38
Jacket: £70
Underarm Bag: @55 (very pricey for a bag!)

First of all, yes.. I know that if you go and buy all of this online or in store it will be a tiny bit pricey but you don't need to. Play up with similar clothes that you have in your wardrobe. This is just an inspiration.
I actually don't own any of the things but I did fell in love  for the trousers and the crop top. And they are both on sale so you can start with that too and build up the rest of the look with what you have already.
So as you can see I choose colors that are adequate to the season but you still have a bit of color with the dark red from the trousers and bag.

I absolutely love this look, seriously. What do you thing?
With this outfit I would do a very simple makeup, with a dark red lipstick to put it all together. I think that it would look gorgeous.

Let me know what you think! I don't forget to follow me in bloglovin'!

Biker Jacket, Outfit of the day #1

In the beginning of the week while going through H&M with my friend Apple I found the biker jacket that I was looking for. And guess what...? It was on sale.
So today I went for a very casual, black, simple look with the beautiful, newest piece in my wardrobe - this biker jacket.
I am in no way a now-it-all when it comes to fashion and the same applies to photography of outfits of the day but here it goes!
I must thank my beautiful boyfriend for taking my photos so I could have something to upload today!




Biker Jacket: H&M (similar), £15. Was £39,99
White top, Bershka. About 3 years old!
Black Trousers, H&M. £14,99
Converse All Star, JD Sports: £35
Black Sunglasses, River Island. £13


Hope you enjoyed this casual look. Like I said, very simple but this is my everyday go-to look when I know I am going to walk loads like I did today!

Also, you can now follow me in bloglovin' . Just below the "About me" section is the icon that you should click if you want to start following me there!

Thanks for reading! xx Lisa

Birthday Wishlist #1

I know that my birthday is only in 1 month and 26 days but I better start giving some hints to my beautiful boyfriend (haha)
I don't ask for much. I don't even need to have everything that I mention here but at least one would make me really, really happy!


1. Light Grey Platform Ankle Boots , River Island. £50
2. Parker Rose Gold-Tone Stainless Steal and White Acetate Watch , Michael Kors. £154
3. Jet Set Travel Tri-color Saffiano Leather Medium Tote , Michael Kors. £173

I think these three items will pull up a nice, clean and fresh look if you match it up with some black jeans and a basic white top from H&M or something like that. Are you imagining that?

Now let's be serious - only in my dreams I would have this for my birthday but.. I can dream, can't I?
Maybe the boots will be a birthday present from me to myself. I have already tried them on in store and they are so comfortable! In my opinion they are quite affordable. River Island has some good quality shoes for a reasonable price.

Anyways, this is my birthday wishlist for now. Don't you just love these items?

xoxo Lisa.
