Alex Munroe - The Language of Flowers

My first Alex Munroe necklace came about from completing the Nike 10K race last Summer and since then I've really been wanting to add to my collection, as his necklace designs are just so pretty.

Just a little note to say.....

I'm sorry things have been a bit quiet over on the blog. There's been a lot going on behind the scenes. Work has been keeping me busy and along side that, there have been some stressful situations to deal with which have left me feeling quite anxious to be honest. I've had some health problems and later today I'm going to be having surgery on my hand. The blog is really important to me though, so I've been working on some posts which I've scheduled for the next few weeks and while my hand is out of action I might try making some more video posts.

See you soon!

Review: Linea Cinnamon and Ginger Home Fragrance Set*

I have a true weak spot for scented candles, in fact scented candles and fresh flowers are my favourite way to cheer up my home and make it super cosy and comforting. The Linea Cinnamon and Ginger candle and home fragrance range from House of Fraser definitely has the comfort factor.

The Weekend Edit

To be honest with you all, this last weekend I was originally meant to be jetting off on a lovely weekend break somewhere sunny with palm trees, but unfortunately no matter how much you want things to work out, sometimes things don't always go to plan. I was determined not to let it get me down though, so I came up with a plan b and you know what? Plan b turned out to be pretty awesome, one of the best weekends! It was a perfect balance between some much needed me time, catching up with friends and doing new things; very much the type of weekend I needed. 

Review: Benefit They're Real Tinted Primer*

I've tried lash primers before but it's always been a bit hit and miss. Although some have really nourished and conditioned my lashes, I haven't really been a fan of the resulting white lashes which can be difficult to cover fully with mascara.  The latest offering from Benefit's They're Real range; the They're Real! Tinted Primer is the perfect lash primer solution as it tints, defines and primes lashes! 

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year everyone!!! I wish you all an amazing 2016 full of love, happiness and good health.
