from rags to riches

I'm in Southampton this week and left my camera at my friends house back at home, so unfortunately no outfit posts or anything. If you're a student, then you'll know that student loans come in next week (or if you're REALLY lucky, this week). I've been broke for like the last 3 months, yes the last loan was only 4 months ago, what can I say I'm not very well organised with money! I've been thinking about all the things I need to do with my loan: summer rent for my new house, spending money for LA, work clothes for LA, etc etc so I *really* want to be well organised with my money this term. So, I've made a list. My list is of the things I've wanted for a while and/or basics. Let me explain...

Topshop shorts- You may have seen in this post that I love these shorts, well that fire is still burning bright. I cannot wait to own a pair of these beauts, they will be worn everywhere all summer.
Benefit & Mac Make up- I'm not a big make-up freak, mainly because I don't even know how to apply make up very well. So whilst I have money I want to invest in some decent bits, I think I'm gonna go for a Mac make up sesh/mini makeover (I went to a Benefit one the other day hence why these items are on my wishlist) 
F21 Floral romper- Playsuits are definitely the way forward this summer, simple and easy to accessorise, I'll be teaming mine with a light cardi or sleeveless denim jacket, some gladiator sandals and some bangles. 
Leopard Vans- I'm not sure if I quite want the leopard print ones (they're a tad garish, but I'm a sucker for anything leopard!) But I do want some vans this summer to give my look a casual edge.
Katy Perry OPI- no need to explain, this varnish is just gorgeous!
ASOS Satchel- This summer it's all about having a pop of colour and this satchel will make and outfit complete. 

If you're a student what treats are you going to buy yourself (if any, after rent, bills, etc) with your student loan? And if you're not a student, what are you going to treat yourself with from your next pay cheque? XOXO AVS
