Boohoo are always finding new ways to tempt us in… at the moment all of their dresses are £20 or less. Which is an absolutely amazing promotion!

I’m drawn towards this: It’s very similar to a Topshop number last season, but at just £20 it’s more than HALF price!

The ridiculously similar Topshop dress (Right)

I also love the below dress (Also £20!)

I have been bidding on a couple of dresses like this on ebay for the festival season… but i might just get this and save myself the hassle!

Stock seems to be pretty low… so if you want something… GET SHOPPING!

If you havent heard of What’s About Town before, you are about to find a new love!

I am just obsessed with this Swarovski Crystal Skull Ring.

£29.57 – What’s About Town.

LOVE IT! – What a brilliant price for Swarovski!

Show some love with these sweet pillow cases featuring Me and You puzzle piece print pillows (£25) from Urban Outfitters. These are just so cute, and just a nice gift for the one you love.

If you are a little more subtle, why not give this pretty “love you” bracelet (£6). This is understated enough to give to a friend too..

It is so much better to give something that is meaningful and will last longer than a box of chocolates, flowers or a big teddy bear holding a Heart. And Urban Outfitters certainly deliver on the Meaningful gifts side of things!

One more to show you;

“I think of you in colours that dont exist” print – £35

If you really want to explore a funky new website that will give you hours of fun without leaving you feeling bored then check out the amazing Dakine store site. We can’t contain ourselves any longer and are desperate to shout out and let the world into the best kept secret in years! Few people realize just how much Dakine have to offer and this site is an incredible place to start exploring the beautiful world of Dakine from.

Absolutely bursting with Dakinestore bags, packs, clothes, luggage and extreme sport accessories this site is the number one Dakine online retailer. Never one to miss out on an exclusive online store Boredofthehighstreet was quick to explore all things Dakine at this great website.

From the first click to checking out at the end we were amazed at just how many Dakine products there were on offer at fantastic prices. All too often sites promise great products but let the shopper down with extortionate prices that fail to impress but we were amazed by the Dakinestores ability to offer high quality genuine Dakine products at ridiculously low prices.

The dakine store is perfect for getting all the items you need for a memorable skiing or snowboarding trip, but is also a great place to find unique everyday back packs and bags. From the universal and highly durable Dakine Heli pack to the classic Dakine 120 split roller the Dakinestore brings you bags that stand out on the high street for all the right reasons.

We were amazed how much difference a Dakine bag made to our snowboarding trip, we took the elite Dakine split roller to the Alps and couldn’t believe how much smoother it made our trip. Like all Dakine products on offer at the site this luggage employs the latest in high specification technology to ensure your trip goes to plan without any broken wheels or damaged boards. By employing the latest in design and specifications the split roller embraces all thinks Dakine to bring you the most popular Dakine product on the market.

All too often when you find a great website after a few satisfying purchases you are left disappointed when you fail to find anything else to buy but with the Dakine store there are so many amazing sections to explore there is no end of items to be enjoyed. The site is split cleverly into sections offering a concise guide to Dakine Surfing, Skiing, Skateboarding, and luggage products. By following the links on the site you can explore the wonderful world of Dakine at a glance and browse through the different sections and even read first hand reviews.

The vast array of Dakine goods on offer make this site perfect for any web surfer from the bored college student seeking a new bag to the experienced or novice boarder planning their next big trip.

Occasionally at Boredofthehighstreet when we are searching the web trying to find all the latest new fashion trends to bring our beautiful customer we come across a great website that we just have to bring you. This is exactly how we feel about the amazing Motelrocks website that we have just spent all lunch break exploring! This funky site is the gospel on all things Motel and is the only place to go to find that one off dress that every girl desperately needs for the party season.

Motelrocks has so much more than your average online fashion store it really is worth shouting about, from the incredible motel dresses section to the top jackets part of the site every part of this funky site is brimming with all the Motel garments any huge Motel fan could ever need.

Motel is not just a label it is a religion!! With a massive cult following it’s not hard to see why the Motelrocks website has such universal appeal to every Motel fan – from teenage girls to mothers. The site not only embraces the Motel brand in all its glory but also offers a unique insight into all the latest Motel products by constantly updating registered customers with latest offers and as seen on insights.

In the last week this exciting news letter has informed us of all the hottest celebs – from the X factors Diana to Fearne Cotton- seen out and about in Motel dresses.

We always realized we were huge Motel fans but it was not until we delved into the glorious Motelrocks website that we fully embraced all things Motel, after discussing Motel in the online forum we have come to the conclusion that we are not the only Motel obsessed fans out there!

We love the funky vintage Motel dresses that combine an elegant timeless feel with retro one off prints and create gorgeous dresses like the fabulous Emily dress. As we know from our recently received Motelrocks newsletter this dress has been an absolutely huge hit with all the stars both here and further afield, and after seeing all the dresses on offer on this site were sure it won’t be long before the rest of the Motel dresses join the party.

It’s only since exploring the wonderful world of the Motelrocks website that we at Boredofthehighstreet have come to realize how many gorgeous products there are featured regularly in all the glossy fashion mags that are from the Motel range. Because the dresses don’t have the massive branding of other items they often go unnoticed, but since exploring the online Motel world we have realized how much coverage Motel have and how highly regarded they are in the fashion world.

Since enjoying every section of the Motelrocks website we can’t wait to place our next order at this amazing site!
