I ♡ Spring Tag

I felt like doing a tag which everyone used to do a while ago so today I'm going to be making a I ♡ Spring Tag as I love spring and I like making tags so here is one. Also in summer, autumn and winter this year I will be doing a seasonal tag for them as we have to share the other seasons some loving. 

1. What's your favourite spring nail polish?
Obviously my answer is going to pastels because pastels are one of my favourite things about spring and I have 2 polishes which I love. The first one is by Miss Sporty and it was in my Buy, Try, Decide- Superdrug which you can read HERE and it is the Clubbing Colour Less Than 1 Minute Quick Dry in Lilac and the other one is the Barry M Gelly Hi Shine Nail Paint in Rose Hip 


2. What's your must have lip colour this Spring?
I never thought I would be saying it but it's actually a liquid lipstick because I recently bought some from Primark's beauty range and I have been loving them. The exact one is in 01 Pink (I wish they had cuter names) and it's a really pretty pink which you can wear in the day or night.


3. Show us your favourite spring clothing?
I love this pink jacket which I got from Peacocks a couple of years ago. I still need to go spring clothing shopping so when I do, I'll make a haul. I really like this one because of the bright colour and it's good if it's still a little bit chilly but it's cold.


4. Favourite spring scarf/accessory?
I thought I would show you both my favourite scarf and accessory as why not? My favourite scarf is this pink and white one from Primark which I got last year and it really adds a lot of colour to your outfit. My favourite accessory is my coral satchel which I got from Primark quite recently and I really like it as I don't have any coral things in my wardrobe and I love satchels. These two things don't go together but I like these with separate outfits. 


5. What's your favourite flower?
I'm not much of a flower person even though I love floral prints but my favourite flowers are peonies because they're pretty and I would have these as my wedding bouquet as they're so gorgeous.


6. What spring trends are you looking forward to this spring? (Makeup, fashion etc)
I don't usually follow trends as I like to have my own style but I did do some research on the spring 2016 trends. The fashion trend I really like is the stripe trend which is something I've always liked but it's going to be big this spring as it was on the runways like Alexander Wang, DKNY and Stella McCartney and the makeup trend I really like is the Candy Apple lipstick trend. Candy apple is like a Snow White apple red shade and it's really different from your usual pinks. It was seen at the fashion shows like DKNY, Celine and Topshop Unique.

7. Favourite spring footwear?
I wear trainers all year round but in Spring I always wear a different pair of trainers and I think my pair for this season is my white platform trainers with rose gold detail from Primark. I really like this pair because the white is really nice for spring as it really goes with all the spring colours and the platform is a little bit different but hard to walk in to be honest.


8. Favourite body spray/ perfume?
I recently got 2 Victoria Secret fragrance mists and I really like them but for spring I really like the Zoella Beauty Let's Spritz body mist as it's the perfect spring smell and it's also good when we're transitioning into summer


9. What is spring like where you live?
If you didn't know I live in England and sadly the spring weather is not the best and Tumblr like how I want it to look like. Basically the weather is not very predictable as one days sunny and the next it's chucking it down with rain but the flowers and trees can look nice at some places.


10. What is your favourite thing about spring?
Definitely the colours as I love pastels so much that I love the fact that spring is when they're all in the shops so I can buy everything pastels!!!


11. Are you a spring cleaner?
No but I wish I was as I'm sure it must feel really nice to do a massive spring clean. I really need to clean my room as it's a tip but I can't be bothered.


12. Any plans for spring break or an upcoming vacation?
Holiday wise I'm not going anywhere and on my Easter holiday I'm going to be home watching YouTube and staying up late and also doing writing a 2000 word essay on cryptography #fun #goals #iknowyouarejealous 


That was my I Heart Spring Tag and I really hope you enjoyed it as I liked writing it and now I'm really excited for spring and get everything pastels! If you would like to follow my life follow my Twitter and Instagram and my username is @_louisecarter_

Asos Wishlist | Spring 2016

You probably know how much I love making wishlists so today I'm making another Asos one. I love spring because I love the colours and the clothing so I was really excited to look at all of the spring clothing and dream about what I want. One day. Anyway lets get looking at my favourite spring clothing on Asos.


Clockwise from top left
River Island Tropical Print Cami Playsuit- If I was going on holiday I would wear this all the time. I would wear it at the beach, the pool, going out during the day. I love the print of this as it's not all bright which I would normally go for if I was going on holiday. I would wear this with some really nice sandles, a massive beach bag and a floppy hat. 
This is £20 from River Island at Asos

Selected Prea Graphic Print Blazer- This wouldn't be something I would normally wear but I really like it so I've included this in this wishlist. I love the bright colours of it and it would add some fun into a plain black and white outfit. I would wear this with black, ripped jeans and a plain white top.
This is £70 from Selected at Asos

Ginger Fizz Wrap Front Pencil Dress in Dark Wash- This dress would be perfect if you was going on holiday as it's not something you would normally wear in England and the colours of the dress would look really nice if you had a tan. I love the back of the skirt as it's really different and I love dresses that are dip hem and this is a bit different as it's longer.
This is £40 from Ginger Fizz at Asos

Supertrash Bensoni Throw On Jacket in Print-  I think this would be perfect for the English weather as it's light as the weather is unpredictable so it's good to have some jacket and the colours are really appropriate for the UK. I love the outfit the model is wearing in the picture so I would wear that with this jacket.
This is £70 from Supertrash at Asos

Asos Denim Shirt in Marlin Retro Blue Wash- I feel like a denim shirt is a really nice spring essential and I haven't got one so I included this in my wishlist. I really like the wash of this shirt as it would go with black and white jeans and if I had one they would be the jeans I would wear the most with this. 
This is £22 at Asos

Sitch & Pieces Loose Jumper with Tassel Hem- In the UK you don't know what spring weather is like so it's good to have a jumper as it might still be a little cold but it's a lighter material and it's a really nice spring colour. I would wear this jumper with black jeans and Converse so it's really casual and laid back.
This is £35 from Sitch & Pieces at Asos

New Look Wrap Front Tailored Jumpsuit-  I've been a fan of jumpsuits for a while now, especially the black tailored ones, so when I saw this cheap one from New Look I had to include it. This would look really nice if you're going on a date as it's formal whilst not showing your legs so you don't need so shave!
This is £22.99 from New Look at Asos

Asos 2 Pack High Waisted Leggings in Black- I'm always wearing black leggings (I'm wearing them as I write this) so it's always good to have some more. It's good to get multi packs as usually they're cheaper and if 1 pair get a hole in, you have spare. Also I would pay £14 for 2 as they'll probably last quite a while
These are £14 from Asos

Asos Pleated Culotte Shorts- Usually I hate culottes but as these are in short form I really like them as sometimes tight shorts can be a big uncomfortable especially after eating on holiday. I would only wear these on holiday as in the UK you probably wouldn't get much wear out of them, only on the hottest day of the year.
These are £12 from Asos.

New Look Stripe Mesh Midi Skirt- Over the last 2 years or so I have really been liking midi skirts as I love how flow-y they are and this one seems really flow-y especially because there's another skirt over proper skirt. I would wear this with a black short sleeve top, black heels and a really pretty statement necklace.
This is £24.99 from New Look at Asos

Reebok Batwing Slouchy Sweatshirt With Retro Logo- I'm usually not a fan of clothing with massive logos on but I actually really like this as it's really casual. To be honest it's not a thing I would wear out a lot but I really like it for relaxing at home. I would wear this with black leggings and if I had to go I would wear Converses.
This is £40 from Reebok at Asos

Asos Sweatshirt with Cute Panda Print- OMG! This jumper is so cute! I think this a perfect jumper for spring as it's cute with a white background and it also seems really light so depending on the weather you could wear this with a leather or denim jacket or without no jacket. I would wear this with black jeans and hi-tops.
This is £22 from Asos

Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Leather Stud Hi Top Trainers- I feel like I always put Converse in my Asos Wishlists but that's because I love them and this pair is amazing. I have loved studs for a really long time and I love my hi tops so a mix between studs, hi tops and Converse is perfect for me.
These are £80 from Converse at Asos

Asos Metallic Floral Zip Top Coin Purse- My purse has way too many coins in it everyone always comments on how my purse has to be so heavy (I don't feel it as I'm used to it) so I really want to get a coin purse and this one is so cute. The floral pattern is really cute and a pattern Accessorize would do. 
This is £8 from Asos

Glamorous Minimal Backpack in Blush- I love backpacks but I don't have any pink ones so for me that's a good excuse to include one. I love how simple it is, especially plain and then with the gold band which I think is cute. This would be a great spring bag as backpacks are always big in spring.
This is £30 from Glamorous at Asos

EVA NYC Tourmaline Clip-Free Digital Curler in Floral Frenzy- I love having my hair curled but the thing is I don't have a curler to do it with and this one is super cute so I had to include one. I haven't had my hair curled in a long time but I really like it and I think it will look good now my hair is longer.
This is £50 from EVA NYC at Asos

The total cost of this wishlist is £560.98 which is a lot but if I had the money I would buy it all to be completely honest as I love everything.. My friend Nicha and I always talk about being rich so Nicha when I'm rich I'll be buying a lot of clothes.
