CLEARLY NOT SPONSORED (I don't have enough followers to get sponsored xD)
This post relates to the website http://www.office.co.uk/
I have had 3 experiences with purchasing shoes from Office online, I have bought 2 pairs of shoes for me and a pair as a gift which got sent to a place 300 miles away from my home. I thought I would write this to help anyone who was considering buying but was unsure.
All items purchased were sent to me using the standard delivery option £3.50 for UK mainland or free when you purchase the shoes at full price (check terms and conditions on the site for exact rules). I found that the pair of shoes that got sent to my friends home took longer to arrive but it still took less than their 7 days suggestion on standard delivery. I received both pairs of mine in 3 days or less so it may be the different locations or possibly the weather as it was snowing around the time of the gift purchase.
They send out emails when your shoes are dispatched and as most people generally have smartphones so the emails are a smart way of contacting customers. Generally when the email has been sent I received the shoes next morning. The latest time they turned up was around lunchtime.
The shoes came to me in perfect condition but the Jeffrey Campbells I bought had a small crease on one side of the box but it is understandable as the boxes for those shoes are so incredibly large.
All shoes purchased were bought during sales but that's more because I am a cheap skate than the prices of the store.
All in all I am happy with the purchases I have made and I think if you have the money, the want for the shoes and the temptation to buy I would suggest giving in unless you need that money to pay bills because then I would suggest you leave them unless you want them to be on your feet as you walk up and down streets selling yourself because you cant get any other job

English: American vs British
So here is going to be a face off of various words I like/ hate of each language.
I am not poking fun at either nationality but I thought it could be enjoyable to see how people feel about each word :)
Here's 4 words for now :)
1: Sidewalk vs Pavement :- I prefer pavement here, I dunno why exactly I just think it sounds nicer and sidewalk sounds like what prostitutes do while waiting for customers :/
2: Garbage vs Rubbish :- I am more used to the word rubbish and prefer it in the context of calling actual rubbish but if I am saying "you look (rubbish or like garbage)" then I prefer to use garbage even though I am a Brit and people look at me weird xD
3: Faucet vs Tap :- TAP!!!! Faucet sounds crazy and even though it's used I have never heard the use of faucet water but you hear tap water all the time hence why it's better.
4: Cell vs Mobile :- Neither really... I normally just call it a phone lol but if I HAVE to I will call it a mobile

Being a Girl
So I am going to rate 5 of the most common labours of being a girl/woman (not including child birthing because EVERYONE knows that sucks). I will list them from my most liked to my least liked. I will also put reasons/ examples of why I hate/love them.
1: Dresses. Now I am not actually a big dress wearing girl but that's due to me being fat in the bum department not because I hate them xD I love the pretty colours, patterns, shapes, fabrics. Ahh they're beautiful.
2: Heels. Now these are somewhat of a love and hate relationship, they make your legs look good and if you're short can give you a confidence boosting height but gosh they can hurt after a few hours.
3: BOOBS! who can't love boobs? They're wonderful helping you get noticed in a crowded place plus xD. BUUUUUUUUT the downside? being looked at like you're a piece of meat to be used. It soon stops once you threaten their bollocks though xD
4: Hair Removal. The smooth skin feeling after a shower is amazing but all the work and pain that goes in to it is HORRID! Waxing hurts, epilators hurt, plucking hurts, shaving can hurt, shaving takes forever and makes it grow back all hard a stubbly.
5: Now this one is going to get me a lot of hate from beauty bloggers and what not but Make-up. I hate the length of time it takes to put on, how quickly you can fuck it up and how long it takes to clear it off. I think the colours are fantastic and the looks you can make are fantastic and I enjoy playing around with it but for an everyday kinda thing I don't think I would ever be able to cope with it.
Now I know you probably wont feel exactly the same way as me but is there anything similar in our opinions? share them below or make a post yourself and link it? <3

Wishlist
So here's a springtime style wishlist from me :)
The shirt and the skirt are both of a neutral colour because that's what I usually favour and the bag is pretty bright so I thought these would work better.
LITA SPIKE REVIEW

THE BEAUTY!
The spikes are insanely sharp and its fun trying to get them off, as with most shoes I have I hold the back and wiggle them off my feet but obviously I cant touch these so I have to unlace them as I have fat feet xD
I can say the fit is good, I actually bought these a size larger than my usual size and wear thicker socks because I weren't passing up on the deal of being able to buy these for 49 pound (less than 1/3rd regular retail). Unfortunately that was in January which seems like a really long time ago for me to be writing the blog post but I needed to be able to find a way to break them in before I could judge. I have an issue with any heel I wear being painful usually but these are fantastic to walk in, I get a small niggle of ouch after a few thousand steps but apart from that I am fine with these.
If you had a reason to wear these shoes often then I would tell you to go out and but them at full price but if not then I advise that you wait for the sale like I did. They are fantastic shoes but not everyone can afford 150 pounds to spend on shoes. Especially if like me they would just end up living in their box in your wardrobe.
I know it's short but hey :D

What's on my iPad :D
So guys this is a place where I will write about random crap to do with me and my life, I spend a lot of my time on my iPad so I thought I would share with you a top 5 of the apps I most use and maybe you might find something you like :D
I have the first edition of the iPad. it still works and I have no need for the camera on the later editions so I am not that panicked about upgrading it maybe when it dies off from me dropping it too much I will invest in a more up to date one xD
1: Temple run 2
I am obsessed with this game, I play it constantly and almost anywhere. My current high score is 10,877,625 and I have played over 1000 games (Sad I know)
2: The Simpsons: Tapped Out
So in this game Springfield has been wiped out by an accident at the nuclear plant and you rebuild it piece by piece. It's a social game but I lack in friends and I am on level 11 at the moment.
3: Tap Tap Revenge
Most people who have any form of touch screen apple products will be familiar with this game. I started off absolutely terrible at it but now I can play most songs to a 99% accuracy minimum on extreme. It can been seen as tedious but you really do get better with practice on this game. I am currently on level 71 and I have unlocked all of the free songs in the game.
4: We Heart It
Now this is an app which works with the we heart it website, you heart pictures you like and put them into sets. I use it a lot as inspiration for photography projects and for art works. I also find fantastic images which I can save to my ipad and use as my home screen/lock screen backgrounds :D
5: Fruit Ninja
Now you will have to pay a small amount for this if you want to reach a high score of over 110 -120 as that's the limit on the free one (or at least it was when I last used it) I have managed to reach a high score of 342 but I lost it because I had to reset my iPad a few months ago :'(
