WEDNESDAY WAMO: WIN A £50 VOUCHER FOR HOUSE OF FRASER


http://emandhanxo.blogspot.co.uk/


Today's favourite WAMO challenge of the week is hands down the  £50 voucher for House of Fraser. This prize allows it to be spent on such a large range of things such as beauty, homeware or clothing, so it's great for anyone! Here's a few thing's we would be considering spending it on...

em's picks: 
1.Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation -£36.50
I have watched a lot of Tanya Burr youtube videos lately and she has talked a lot about this Giorgio Armani foundation, and ever since I have wanted to try it out. So would definitely love to try this.

2.Benefit Gimme Brow Gel- £17.50
I have been wanting to try this for ages! I think Benefit do really good eyebrow products, so I am sure this wouldn't disappoint.

3.Urban Decay Naked Lip Gloss- £14.50
I have been wanting to buy some more lip glosses as I only ever seem to wear lipstick. I don't know why but I think these lip glosses are really cute, so I would possibly pick one of these out.

4.Lipsy Cap sleev puff pattern bodycon dress- £42.00
I thought I would finish with a beautiful dress. As you all should know by now, I love lipsy especially their bodycon dresses... I think this one is gorgeous! It is such a pretty colour and would look great for Spring. Also the pattern would be very flattering for your figure.


han's picks:
I went for all beauty things because I would definitely use this voucher to extend my makeup collection and buy something that I wouldn't usually treat myself to due to cost, here's what I picked..

I have wanted a shimmer brick for so long that this would definitely be something that I would think about getting, although it would take me ages to decide what shade. I think I like the look of Pink Quartz most.

Mascaras are a most for me! So this would definitely be on my maybe list, especially since I have recently tried out the sample and loved it (find out more here).

I have heard a lot of good things about this recently and i've never tried a mascara primer so would be really interested in seeing if it affected my eyelashes!

My possible purchases wouldn't be complete if I didn't consider getting a lipstick. Tom Ford lipsticks are sadly out of my price range so would definitely think about using the voucher to buy one although it would take me days to decide what shade I would want, either spanish pink or nude vanilla at the moment. 

 This challenge will be running tomorrow (2nd of April) so be sure to check it out! Other prizes this week include: an item from misguided £50 or under (3rd of april), a soft rose goddess collection set from mememe (4th of april), win a pair of shoes worth £100 or under from ALDO (5th of April) and many others.. 
Let us know what you would buy if you won the voucher...

Now it is getting warming, midi dresses will look great, especially this one. It is really cute and looks like it would complement the body nicely. Put a nice chunky necklace one, with some cute sandals and a leather jacket, I think would make a great outfit.

3.Ochre bardot dress- £15.00
I know this is a bright dress, but I love yellow, I think it is a really complimenting colour. And as you all should know by now, I love bodycon dresses. This would look so nice on a night out with some black chunky heels.

And finally is this gorgeous crop top! This would look so nice with either the jeans, leggings or even a nice skirt or skort. I think this is really cute, would really make an outfit stand out.


han's picks:
I am always looking at jackets and think this would would be super versatile. It would pretty much go with any outfit and suit everyone.

I love the style of this! It's long enough to cover your bum so perfect to wear with leggings. Also is high neck which I really like. It would be perfect paired with leggings and a black leather jacket and the boots mentioned below. 

I really like these boots! They have a heel which is perfect for me as I'm really short. I also love the cut out detail and the buckle! 

I think this is so cute! I love the shade of the blue and the like paisley/floral imprint detail. It would look super nice paired with some smart black trousers or a nice skirt for like a date look. Also I think peplum style tops are really flattering.

Wamo Wednesday Win an item for £50 or under from LoveClothing!

Here's another WAMO Wednesday for you all! We decided that our favourite challenge this week is for an item worth up to £50 from love clothing.com It starts on sunday the 8th of Feb so be sure to check it out if you like the look of any of the things we've chosen. Also why not check out WAMO's valentine challenges they are currently running such win some Yankee Candles or a Dolce and Gabbana gift set. 

This is so cute! We would definitely buy this and pair it with black tights and the fluffy crop top below. It would look great for a date outfit or a nice everyday look.

Given the current weather conditions you can't go wrong with something fluffy (although being a cropped doesn't help). It would work with pretty much any outfit.. leggings, jeans, skirts and shorts day or night... as it can be easily dressed up or down!   

We both love this blouse! It is so pretty and would look great with the leather leggings. We would definitely purchase this. The detail on the hem is gorgeous! However if you want this be quick as its on sale.

We think these boots are so practical with how the weather has been lately and they are definitely a lot cheaper than Timberlands. Definitely shoes I'd wear with jeans or leggings for a day at university!

Let us know what you think to the challenge or of our picks in the comments below! 

see you soon, Em & Han x

ps let us know if you've started using the WAMO app and let us know your username and we will follow back!

1. Pink Bikni - top £12.99, bottoms  £7.99
I am going away soon with my boyfriend for a spa weekend, so I have been looking for some new bikinis, this is soo cute I love the colour! It would also look really good on the beach with a tan because of the bright colours.

2. Burgundy button front skater dress £14.99

A kimono is a must for me! I think they can make an outfit and are suitable for both day and night wear. I especially love this one as I love the gold floral detail I think it would look good with either a black dress or some jeans and a black vest top. 

Black jeans again another must have! I think with a nice top these would look great with the kimono mentioned above. 

I love this watch so much! I love the grey and gold together I think the colours are such a pretty combo! I definitely want this even though I don't wear watches! I would make an exception for this one. 

Sunglasses are another must have for me (especially in my car) and I love the style of these. These black and gold framed sunglasses will go win any outfit and will be perfect for summer!
