<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Hey Everyone! </span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">On Sunday the lovely folks at <a href="http://www.theveenocompany.com/veeno-reading-wine-bar/">Veeno Wine Bar</a> invited me down to try their <a href="http://www.theveenocompany.com/wine-tasting/">Selezione wine</a> tasting experience at one of their new branches in Reading. This branch has only been open for 6 weeks but i can already see it becoming an incredibly popular place to go with friends, family and partners. They have a gorgeous al fresco area out the front, which would be perfect for a social gathering in the summer with a glass of wine in hand! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">We were greeted at the door by the friendly and warm staff and shown to our table, the decor is very light and bright with fantastic fittings matching the wine bar perfectly. The bottle lights, corks in the tables and the rustic looking tasting room made a lovely touch. </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">After we had got settled and enjoyed a glass of prosecco and an aperol spritz - Maks our lovely, chatty and very knowledgeable waiter gave us a background about the <a href="http://www.theveenocompany.com/">Veeno</a> chain. Started in 2013 by two Italian friends in their twenties, they wanted to bring the Italian way of life (drinking, nibbling on yummy Italian food and relaxing) to Manchester. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">By the end of the year Veeno was created and now authentic Italian wines and Sputini can be enjoyed all across the UK. From what i could tell, they are only improving and expanding! So, if Reading isn't close to you, don't panic.. they are opening a new branch in London in a couple of weeks! </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The Selezione wine tasting included 6 wines all from their own family owned vineyard back in Sicily - <a href="http://www.carusoeminini.it/">Caruso & Minini</a>. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Maks started of by bringing all the bottles of wine over to to table. He also brought over </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">a wine guide which had in depth details of each bottle inside, this was a really lovely touch and a great thing to takeaway! We where then brought the biggest sharing board i have ever layed my eyes on filled with authentic Italian Spuntini.</span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"> It was absolutely incredible, it included a mixture of cheeses, meats and breads which all paired beautifully with the wines that we where about to try. It was all freshly cut and prepared in house and brought to us within about 10 - 15 minutes of sitting down. Being the little piggy i am, it was so so hard not to eat it all in one go..! </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">On to the wines.. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><a href="https://theveenostore.com/products/sicani-grillo-timpune">The Sicani Timpune</a>, was the first white we tried and my favourite out of the two. The taste was incredibly clean and easy to drink, leaving a nice fresh taste on the pallet. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The sub-label Timpune means 'Top of the Hill' where the grapes for this wine are used and grown. It was paired perfectly with the creamy Mozerella di Bufala, which really brought out the oak flavours within the wine. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><a href="https://theveenostore.com/products/sicani-zibibbo">The Sicani Zibibbo</a>.. the 'wine of love', was next on the list. Even though this wine was drinkable, it wasn't really to my taste, i found it very strong. The wine itself offers a wide variety of scents including spices and fruits. This was paired with the Pecorino sheep's milk cheese. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><a href="https://theveenostore.com/products/tasari-syrah">The Tasari Syrah Rosato</a> was the one and only </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span class="_Tgc">Rosé</span> we tried (and I'm very glad about it).. I'm not sure if it's just me, but i get bad vibes from </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span class="_Tgc">Rosé</span></span>. It reminds me of being a teenager and having it before a night out and waking up with a smashing hangover! Even though i expressed my fears to Maks, i still gave it ago.. It was better than i thought but i still wasn't keen. This cherry coloured </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span class="_Tgc">Rosé</span></span> had a very intense fruity bouquet that had notes of strawberry, cherry, raspberry and pomegranate. This was paired with the Speck, smoked ham from Trentino. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<a href="https://theveenostore.com/products/sicani-perricone"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The </span></a><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><a href="https://theveenostore.com/products/sicani-perricone">Sicani Perricone </a>was the first red we tried, i was excited when he brought the reds out as (i can't believe I'm saying this..) but a nice red is definitely my choice knowadays - i think i must be getting old! The beautiful wine had hints of red fruits and liquorice - which could be strongly tasted and smelt. It was served with the most amazing Bresaola I've ever had, and when paired together my glass emptied very quickly! This wine was my absolute favourite and if i wasn't saving for a house i would of snapped up a few bottles for myself! </span><br />
<a href="https://theveenostore.com/products/selezioni-cutaja-nero-davola"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
</a><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><a href="https://theveenostore.com/products/selezioni-cutaja-nero-davola">The Selezioni Nero D'avola Cutaja</a> was the last red we tried and boy, did this pack a punch! At first i wasn't sure, but after a while and whilst pairing it with my favourite Gorgonzola cheeses it soon disappeared. This red is very complex and mature with scents of cocoa - it left a lovely spice on the palette! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I have linked all the above wine to their online shop so you can read a little more in details about each one!</span><br />

This was paired by the final family produced desert wine <a href="https://theveenostore.com/products/marsala-doc-0-5l">Marsala Doc</a>, they use the same grapes they use in </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><a href="https://theveenostore.com/products/sicani-grillo-timpune">The Sicani Timpune</a> to produce this</span>. The bouquet is balanced with scents of fruits and flowers and notes of honey and cinnamon which are perfectly paired to the deliciously creamy tiramisu. </span><br />

It was very enjoyable learning about Veeno and the wines they produce. We played a few games with the wines to see if we could guess the flavours and what wine they where similar too, it was a fun added touch. Overall, a very successful and slightly tipsy Sunday afternoon! </span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Hey Everyone! </span></div>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Back in April it was mine and the boys 6 year anniversary. We decided to spend it somewhere special and booked a 4 day break to the beautifully romantic city of Prague. Yet again we stayed in a charming Air B & B located about a 10 minute walk from the Charles Bridge.. (check it out <a href="https://www.airbnb.co.uk/rooms/3859644?wl_source=list&wl_id=195522402&role=wishlist_owner&guests=2&adults=2&children=0&infants=0">here!</a>) it couldn't of been in a better location and it was the perfect base for our anniversary trip. The communication both before and whilst we where in Prague where fantastic and the flat was almost brand new and spotless. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I had pre-ordered a shuttle with a private taxi company called <a href="https://www.prague-airport-transfers.co.uk/">Prague Airport Transfers</a>. I booked very easily online and they where fantastic to deal with, super friendly and on time. On the way back to the airport the weather was awful, we contacted them and asked if we could bring the transfer forward. They promptly dealt with our enquiry and sent a private car within about 15 minutes..! Really fantastic service and worth pre-booking. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.myczechrepublic.com/prague/sightseeing/charles_bridge.html">The Charles Bridge </a></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Probably the most famous part of Prague is the beautifully constructed Charles Bridge. Standing proud over the Vltava river, this beautiful monument is one not to miss! We crossed each day whilst here and it never stopped being incredibly special. The quietest time to pass is around 11pm if you want a clear shot of the bridge, as it can be an incredibly busy tourist trap with street vendors. Placed about </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">half way down the bridge you will see the historic statue of St John Nepomuk, it's very easy to identify because it has a shiny gold spot at the bottom from where people rub everyday for good luck! It is said that if you do rub you will return to Prague soon! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><a href="https://www.pragueexperience.com/places.asp?PlaceID=604">Petrin Hill & Observation Tower </a></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The Observation Tower on Petrin Hill stands proud over Prague and offers the most insane panoramic views of the beautiful city. Firstly, if you don't like walking i would highly recommend getting the Funicular which runs from Lesser town to the top of Petrin Hill. Because, dear god was this the steepest walk! Also remember coins to buy a ticket at the funicular station, we didn't have enough and ended up having to walk back down too..(They do not take cards or notes!) </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The views at the top of Petrin hill are absolutely spectacular and we even stopped for a beer half way up! Once up, we decided to give the observation tower a climb. I managed to climb to the top and soak in the view, however i did feel a slight movement so quickly made my way back down. It cost around £5 per person to experience this which is well worth the money, we took some beautiful shots at the top and where lucky enough to have a crystal blue sky! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">This next one is a bit of a strange one and one admittedly we didn't stay for very long at. As you can see it's every instagram addicts dream, the back drop is incredible beautiful and covered in lyrics and John Lennon inspired graffiti.. apparently John Lennon never even visited Prague, so i still don't really understand the concept behind this. All be it, the buskers atmosphere and beautiful colours make it a great stop. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><a href="https://www.hrad.cz/en/prague-castle-for-visitors">Prague Castle</a></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Prague castle isn't like a normal English castle, or anything like I've ever seen before. It's high on a hill and is a long old walk but most definitely worth the visit. According to the Guinness World Records, it's the largest ancient castle in the world and covers a total area bigger than seven football fields. There are all different types of tickets that give you 2 day uses and different entries to all the different areas within the castle. My favourite part was St. Vitus Cathedral, which you can see below. It is the most beautiful cathedral and reminds me a lot of the Notre Dame in Paris. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.praguebeermuseum.cz/en/">Prague Beer Museum </a></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">This was actually one of the first places we stopped! We where looking for snacks and good beer and we most definitely found it. Located very close to the Charles Bridge and with plenty of seating for a rest, we ordered two tasting trays. One pale ale and one dark ale.. there is a HUGE choice of beer with some flavoured with honey, cherry, blueberry and even chocolate! They only have a small food menu, but the perfect nibbles to go along with a few hours of drinking beer. The atmosphere was fantastic and the service fast. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">This lavish looking cafe was our favourite place we stopped for breakfast, it's clearly a very popular location as we had to wait 20 minutes for a table. The incredibly ceiling even dates back to 1893. The one thing that really impressed me about this restaurant was the prices, we both ordered the english breakfast which consisted of fresh bread, fried egg, bacon, potatoes, frankfurter, pork sausage, tomato, mushrooms, baked beans a freshly squeezed orange juice AND a coffee for ONLY.. £11.00 each. Not only was it incredibly cheap, the service was spot on and the food was delicious! </span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The name of this coffee shop literally combines my two favourite things, chocolate and coffee. The first thing they actually ask you when you sit down, is ..'do you like chocolate..' which all be it a little cheesy, i really enjoyed. They have a chocolate tap where they have white, milk and dark chocolate on draft and they also make all other items fresh from scratch on the premises. </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I went for the waffle, fresh cream, fresh fruit and warm chocolate. It was quite literally the most incredible and very naughty breakfast treat we had the whole holiday. </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">It's a very small restaurant so it might be worth giving them a call to reserve a table. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Hey Everyone! </span></div>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Nothing quite beats a sunny morning in London brunching with your bestie, and when she suggested <a href="http://www.daisygreenfood.com/venues/timmy-green">Timmy Green</a> in Victoria i was excited to see what was inside. </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">This beautifully designed brunch spot is incredibly instagram-able and very easy on the eye, filled with beautiful gold and white marble tables, roses and green vines flowing from the ceiling it's the perfect setting for a tasty brunch in central London. </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Not only is the interior stunning, you can even choose to alfresco dine in front of the striking two storey, glass fronted building. Perfect for warm sunny days drinking and eating with the people you love. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.daisygreenfood.com/venues/timmy-green">Timmy Green</a> has an extensive menu and runs throughout the day producing brunch, lunch and dinner options, they even have a bottomless brunch for £39.50 per person (which i feel is good for such a central location!) We decided that as it was a Saturday we would order Mimosas, these refreshing cocktails where made with fresh orange which was a lovely touch. It was hard to make a brunch decision as the menu had so many options, i finally chose from the 'set for the day' menu.. and went for the broccoli and corn fritters. </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">This healthy and appetising dish was served with avocado, poached eggs, home made chili pesto and great quality back bacon. </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">The food was great quality, fresh and very tasty. I would definitely return as I had my eyes on the buttermilk blueberry pancakes the nearby table ordered.</span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><a href="http://www.daisygreenfood.com/venues/timmy-green">Timmy Green</a> is within very easy reach of Victoria rail station and located on the corner of Buckingham Palace & Bressenden Place</span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">. I would highly recommend for a delicious catch up with a friend or a day date brunch with your partner! All in all, a fantastic brunch with a bestie. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">What's your favourite place to brunch?!</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Hey Everyone! </span></div>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Welcome back, sorry again for the lack in posts - it has been a busy time and my blog got put on the back burner. I really want to start it up again so thought i would start with a new beauty product i have recently tried out. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The <a href="http://www.charlottetilbury.com/uk/">Charlotte Tilbury</a> Magic Foundation (or in my case.. the not so magic foundation) has some big claims, which include being full coverage, an easy to apply and evenly dispensed product, to be lightweight and to cover all imperfections. The videos, youtube reviews and extensive colour range really pulled me but i was left incredibly disappointed and with an expensive foundation that just didn't work out for me. </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms", sans-serif;">Even though the cons out-weighed the pros i still wanted to share them with you. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><b>Pros</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">1. The colour range <a href="http://www.charlottetilbury.com/uk/">Charlotte Tilbury</a> has managed to produce is simply impressive, not only do they have fair, medium and dark this is then further broken down into tones. Meaning you can find the perfect match in each section. The way they have done this reminds me of the <a href="http://www.esteelauder.co.uk/">Estee Lauder</a> double wear, they have a huge selection which incorporates different tones from neutral to cool. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">2. As it states it is a very easily blended foundation and i found it worked well with a beauty blender. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">3. It has SPF 15 within the product which is perfect for keeping your skin safe from harmful rays all year round and to help protect your youthful skin. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">4. The packaging feels expensive with a glass component and rose gold lid. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><b>Cons</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">1. It claims to be full coverage, and on first application it is. However, after 1-2 hours the product starts to slide around in oily areas but cling and sticks to dry patches, making it an un-wearable product. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">2. It covers imperfections for about an hour, but soon after the high pigmentation seems to fade away. I could see my freckles and red patches peeking through half way through the day, which is not ideal for someone who works in a hot sweaty office in summer. It literally had no hope and no staying power. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">3. It settles into fine lines, which is bizarre for a product that claims to be filled with Hyaluronic Filling Spheres, which are supposed to plump wrinkles within an hour to make the skin smoother and firmer. I did use the foundation up and didn't find this to be true. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">4. I found that i needed to use a huge amount of product to get the finish that i wanted, which meant i went through this product 10 times quicker then any of my other foundations. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms, sans-serif;">5. The smell is awful, it smells of chemicals which again seems odd for something that claims to have these wonderful ingredients. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms, sans-serif;">The Charlotte Tilbury <a href="http://www.charlottetilbury.com/uk/magic-foundation-shade-1.html">Magic Foundation</a> retails at £30.00 for a 30ml bottle. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms, sans-serif;">Overall, you can see that my cons on this occasion weigh out the pros. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone who suffers from dry skin or acne. It will get stuck to dry patches and the pigmentation will diminish throughout the day. I've been reading a few opinions from different reviewers and a lot of people have had he same trouble as me. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms, sans-serif;">For a product that was 5 years in the making and is expensive i do feel a little gutted this didn't work for me. This however, hasn't put me off the <a href="http://www.charlottetilbury.com/uk/">Charlotte Tilbury </a>brand and i would love to try the <a href="http://www.charlottetilbury.com/uk/light-wonder-1-fair.html">light wonder foundation</a> and the <a href="http://www.charlottetilbury.com/uk/products/makeup/eyes/palette.html">eyeshadow quads</a>. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms, sans-serif;">Have you tried this product? How did you find it? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Welcome back everyone! </span></div>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Myself and my partner are currently saving like mad and are now on the waiting list for some new build properties - which is incredibly exciting! My new absolute favourite thing to do is create boards on Pinterest to start saving bits and bobs which i feel would be fantastic in a new home. I thought i would share whats at the top of my list, but if you want to check out my Pinterest boards you can follow me <a href="https://uk.pinterest.com/jessicaannblog/pins/">here</a>. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVEk7OYbErolgBQhHK-VoDQN9piDPhsWs4u2mFYqKNobOjP1fCYctTiJHstRgfxwqPEf8sFu4uL8G9cG16y7SSWxeJOSmtXBE04FPO6kKxko7yW2PFHTZwBJPPG4cAN7Ky7maZdmOdrPI/s1600/THE.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="768" data-original-width="1024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVEk7OYbErolgBQhHK-VoDQN9piDPhsWs4u2mFYqKNobOjP1fCYctTiJHstRgfxwqPEf8sFu4uL8G9cG16y7SSWxeJOSmtXBE04FPO6kKxko7yW2PFHTZwBJPPG4cAN7Ky7maZdmOdrPI/s1600/THE.jpg" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">1. Electronics </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">OK, so the first thing I'm going to do when we finally purchase our first home, is 100% going to be getting a kitten.. and to go along with the new furry addition, i thought this <a href="http://www.panasonic.com/uk/consumer/smart-home/kx-hnc200ew.html">Panasonic indoor camera</a> would be the perfect product for a new home and new animal. Not only does this nifty indoor camera let you keep an eye on what's important through your smart phone, it can even start recording when motion, sound or temperature changes.. and to go even further it has two-way communication, so can also be used as a baby monitor! These retail for £79.99 and can be bought directly through the Panasonic website, they look super nifty and a great electronic to keep an eye on new pets!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">2. Sofa Bed </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Sofa beds are a brilliant invention, especially if like us your looking to buy a 1 bed flat or maisonette, a sofa bed is the perfect addition to a smaller living room - i love this one from <a href="http://www.dfs.co.uk/">DFS</a> which also has built in hidden storage! Perfect for a smaller flat or house with limited space. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">3. Coffee Machine</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The next item is clearly a very cruical item for any new home-owner.. A <a href="https://www.nespresso.com/uk/en/">Nespresso</a> De'Longhi Lattissima Touch! This machine has a built in one-touch milk system which means you can enjoy and make cappuccinos or lattes with fresh milk incredibly easy! I also love that this is a capsule machine... So no mess or fuss!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">4. Posters and Prints</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">From being in friends and families houses that have print and don't have print, i really do think picture frames filled with quotes and personal photos can really pull rooms together and make everything that little extra homely. I absolutely love the website <a href="https://desenio.co.uk/">Desenio</a>, they have prints that work well within Scandinavian and Nordic interior, they are so cute - and i love the inspiring and motivational quotes. The posters retail from around £11.95, all you need to do is find a stylish frame to pair them with! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">5.Pots & Pans </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">When moving out i think one of the most important items you can save up for and splurge on is a good set of pots and pans. Even thought they might set you back, i think the investment is 100% worth it - especially if you love cooking like us. These <a href="https://www.lecreuset.co.uk/">Creuset</a> pots have nothing but fantastic reviews and come in really cute colours to add a splash of colour to kitchens. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">6. Homeware </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Another thing i have a feeling I'm going to go mad on, is cushions and bedding .. basically anything soft, warm cosy and vibrant. I LOVE everything and anything from the <a href="https://www.anthropologie.com/en-gb/">Anthropolgie</a> website, the patterns, colours and designs are really up my street and would really gorgeous within any colour scheme. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I think the first thing on my list is definitely going to be the Nespresso machine! What's your favourite item? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">Hey Everyone!</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">I've been away for a good couple of months, and i was considering writing a whole post on why. However, I've changed my mind and decided to keep it private for now and jump straight in with a review of a delicious brunch spot i went to a few weeks back! </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">Now.. Who doesn't love a good brunch? I feel like it's all we see on Instagram these days, but if you don't Instagram it .. it never happened.. am i right?! My bestie took me to this adorable and tiny restaurant</span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"> called <a href="http://www.flour2people.com/">Flour To The People</a> in Battersea Park for a delightful Sunday morning brunch, before our afternoon of catching rays in the park.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">Located on Battersea Park Road this quaint (and <b>very</b> small) family run restaurant focuses on making as much as possible from scratch, they source and make all the dishes from free-range organic ingredients and you can tell! As well as making their own sourdough they also make their own butter, marmalade, jams, sauces and mayo. In the day they focus on brunch and at night sourdough pizzas! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">Myself and Emma both started off with an iced coffee, not strictly on the menu but the servers where more than happy to accommodate. The coffee was strong, great quality and really hit the spot! </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">I didn't manage to get a picture of the menu, but they had healthy options like bircher muesli, avocado on toast and veggie breakfasts and then the naughty options like pancakes and what i had french toast (check out the full menu <a href="http://www.flour2people.com/breakfast-brunch-menu">here</a>)! All dishes where reasonably priced at around £9.00 - £11.00 for a hearty plate of fresh grub! Now please don't judge me.. but i had a large plate of everything beige (i was INCREDIBLY hunger and needed bacon!) the french toast was delicious as was the sausage and bacon! Emma went for the the (V) one.. i.e the veggie breakfast which includes, eggs, tomatoes, spinach, mushrooms, house beans and sourdough toast. Another fantastic and quirky touch was the toaster at each table, meaning you can toast your bread to your liking and make sure it's warm for when your food arrives. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">Yes.. the restaurant is tiny.. yes you might have to cosy up to a stranger and it's a guarantee you will have to queue up for a table - but the food was delicious and well worth it.</span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"> </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">This place serves fresh and wholesome breakfasts at a great price and makes a change from all the chain diners in Central. I will certainly be returning to try their sourdough pizzas, and if you have been would love to know your thoughts!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">I always love trying new places, so would love to hear what your favourite brunch spot is? </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Hey Everyone!</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Love Hearts hand wash..? Genius right! </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I was SO excited when i received an email from <a href="http://www.carexuk.co.uk/">Carex UK</a> last week asking if i would like to try out their <a href="http://www.carex.co.uk/range/fun-editions/fun-editions-love-hearts-hand-wash">Love Hearts</a>* hand wash</span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">. As you can see, i jumped at the chance to try it and have been loving it ever since. We have always been a Carex kind of family and i already love the moisturising hand wash as i suffer from dry skin. Carex is a super affordable brand which can be picked up with ease from most supermarkets here in the UK, not only that it kills 99.9% of bacteria - which is fab if you have animals. I've actually been using it to wash my make-up brushes and they have been left super soft and smelling incredible. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"></span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">They have a few different 'flavours' in the Fun Edition collection which include - Cola Bottles, Strawberry Laces, Bubble Gum and Chocolate Orange. As you can imagine each individual scent smells exactly as described instantly taking you back to your childhood! </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">This love heart scent has to be my favourite out of the collection, it made me feel incredibly nostalgic and reminded me of </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">buying packs of sweethearts on a Saturday morning after netball. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">This hand wash is an absolute winner in my book, the scent, the nourishing feel and most of all it's pastel PINK which looks super cute in the bathroom! </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">So... What are you waiting for pick yours up today and #ShareTheLove with </span><a href="http://www.carex.co.uk/" style="font-family: "trebuchet ms", sans-serif;">Carex UK</a><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Hey Everyone! </span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I hope everyone had an amazing Christmas and a fantastic New Year! </span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">At the beginning of December i went on a 5 day city break to beautiful Reykjavik in Iceland. We had the most amazing </span></span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">time despite the very wet, cold and dark weather! Reykjavik is famous for it's Northern lights sightings, beautiful scenery and geothermal pools - so I thought I would share some of my favourite sights, snaps and yummy eats with you guys!</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"></span></span><br />
<div align="justify">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">We arrived to Keflavík International Airport around 6.30pm after a 3 hour flight from Gatwick. I had pre-booked our coach journey to our apartment in advance so we literally collected our luggage, walked outside the arrivals hall and the <a href="https://www.re.is/">Flybus</a> coach was waiting. This then takes you to the BSI terminal, where you get on another smaller minibus and they transfer you to your apartments. This was quick, easy and hassle free so I would 100% advise pre-booking to save yourself taxi money and time. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">There is a lot to do in the city centre and lucky for us we decided to stay in a lovely <a href="https://www.airbnb.co.uk/rooms/2571403">Air B & B</a> (would highly recommend this apartment, was clean and the host was so friendly!) straight behind the main street of Laugavegur. This street runs from the harbour up to the church and beyond. This has all the main restaurants, shops and supermarkets - so if possible I would recommend staying around this area. As we went at the beginning of December we were lucky enough to see this pretty town decorated with Christmas decorations as well as all the cute little Christmas shops being open! </span></span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">This breath taking church building is beautifully designed and a must see, you will not be able to miss it as it stands tall over Reykjavik. We paid 900 ISK > £6.37 to go up the tower and take in the beautiful views around us - well worth it in my opinion! Once at the top you can see the Reykjavik from all directions. </span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Another amazingly designed and unusual building on the sea front. This is Reykjaviks main concert and conference centre, it contained a cute Christmas shop selling decorations. This was a lovely (and warm..!) shelter from the rain and wind. We looked around, took in the view and shopped the Christmas decorations. You can see concerts here throughout the year, so make sure if you are visiting Reykjavik to keep up to date with their what's on guide. </span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">We decided to book our Northern Lights trip with a company called Special Tours. This was mainly down to them doing boat tours and not wanting to go on a coach! They provide everything you need to wrap up warm from the Arctic chill and it was a really fun experience, our tour guide George was absolutely fantastic and very knowledgeable. Unfortunately we only saw a glimpse of the Aurora Borelleis, still a glance is a glance and i enjoyed every minute of it! Book directly through their website and you will receive a 10% discount per person. </span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I was really excited to go on the Golden Circle Tour as i had heard so much about it. You visit 3 main locations, a horse park and a few places to warm up and grab a cup of coffee.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">We booked the tour through <a href="http://grayline.is/airport-transfer/">Gray Line</a> once we had arrived, which i must say i would not book through again. They seemed to lack customer service and it was very clear on the day our tour our guide just wanted it be over and done with. She seemed to sprint of without half the coach once we arrived at most destinations which was incredibly un-helpful. However, moving on the sites where still amazing and this didn't put a downer on our day, we where lucky enough to tick the following sites of our bucket list; </span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">This was the first stop on the tour, it looked amazing however the low cloud provided difficult to see the view from the viewing platform and due to the wind and rain we shortly abandoned this idea and walked down the path between the north American and Eurasian plates, the rain was torrential (i couldn't even get my camera out for a snap!) so we decided to take shelter on the bus! </span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Next on the tour was the incredible waterfall Gullfoss, it is fed by Iceland's second biggest glacier - Langjökull. The water plummets down 32
meters in two stages into a rugged canyon which walls reach up to 70
meters in height. It has two separate viewing platforms, one higher and one down closer, it was amazing to see the waterfall and get so close to it! I </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">really enjoyed this part of the trip.. Not only this they had incredibly rich and yummy hot chocolate to warm us up! </span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The blue lagoon was my MOST favourite thing to do in Iceland, after the very wet week we decided to do this tour as a part of our transfer back to the airport. We booked this with <a href="https://www.re.is/">Reykjavik excursions</a>, the same company who we used for transfers (and i can't recommend them enough!) </span></span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">This was one of those places I've wanted to go for a long time and it did NOT disappoint. The geothermal water which fills the blue lagoon has three active ingredients - Silica, Algae & Minerals. </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Make sure you head over the the face mask bar and try out the different selections - they made my skin super soft. We also got to enjoy a lovely ice cold beer whilst bathing in the warm waters! </span></span><br />

tiny knook in the heart of Reykjavik did the BEST soup I've ever tasted
in my life. Don't be put off by the outside - you really must try this.
Located half way down Laugavegur, they have two things on the menu.. Soup and Soup! The specials change daily but we where lucky enough to try Iceland's famous Reindeer Soup! It was absolutely delicious and the staff where SO friendly! </span></span><br />

So instead of a favourites i wanted to share w<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">hat's new in my beauty stash! </span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I'm really torn when it comes to this foundation. They stock 23 shades which range from warm to neutral to cool undertones, which means all the fair skinned ladies out there - there will be a shade that suits you! Firstly, i do really really love the way it applies and <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">initially </span>sits on the skin however, i do find after about hour 4 it starts to go patchy and real oily. I would say it's a light to medium coverage and is build-able. I do normally mix it with the L'Oreal infallible listed below as that has longer staying power than this, which dramatically improves the result. </span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Hey Everyone!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Who doesn't love receiving a beautiful bouquet of flowers hand delivered to your door? No one?.. Didn't think so! <a href="https://www.blossominggifts.com/">Blossoming Gifts</a> certainly does not disappoint with their stunning hand tied bouquets! I was lucky enough to be sent the <a href="https://www.blossominggifts.com/christmas/christmas-flowers/christmas-lily-rose">Christmas Lily & Rose bouquet*</a> which was beautifully packaged, arrived promptly and was tied with delicate white tissue paper and a cute grey vintage bow! Not only are the flowers presented wonderfully, they came in a large box fastened around the bottom - </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"> this is brilliant and a fantastic way to ensure the flowers aren't moving around and damaged during transit!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">As i mentioned above i was kindly sent the Lily & Rose bouquet from the <a href="https://www.blossominggifts.com/">Blossoming Gifts</a> <a href="https://www.blossominggifts.com/christmas/christmas-flowers">Christmas flowers</a> range. Personally, I think these would make the perfect Christmas present for any loved one! You can pair these beautiful hand tied bouquets with bubbles, chocolates, vintage vases and even personalised gifts making it the ideal Christmas present! The flower quality is incredibly fresh and they smell amazing - <a href="https://www.blossominggifts.com/">Blossoming Gifts </a>guarantee the flowers to last for 7 days (the above pictures was taken on day 5!) This bouquet has certainly brought a touch of early festive cheer to my kitchen.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The <a href="https://www.blossominggifts.com/">Blossoming Gifts</a> Christmas range start from £17.99 - however I have been given a discount code for you lovely lot, so if you enter <b>'BGIFTS3'</b> at the check-out you will receive a huge 33% off all flowers - this does however exclude all products on the 'flowers by post' page.</span><br />
<br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I went for two of my favourites - <a href="http://dragonflytea.com/products/jasmine-pearls-green-tea">Jasmine Pearls</a>* and <a href="http://dragonflytea.com/products/earl-grey-tea">Earl Grey</a>*. The tea bags are made from biodegradable pyramids which lets the loose <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">who<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">le leaf tea properly brew inside</span></span>. <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">As soon as <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">i rec<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">eived this parcel i could smell the tea through the box<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"> - the smells are <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">incred<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">ib<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">le, however <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">when brewing this <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">is not <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">overpowering to the flavour</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span>!

The Christmas village is complete with a very large ice rink, cocktail crystal bar, a grotto to meet Father Christmas, Christmas market and festive treats - making it the perfect destination for all the family this Christmas! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">As soon as we entered, we headed straight for the Crystal bar for a little dutch courage before the ice skating began! They had a huge selection of alcoholic and non alcoholic beverages including mulled wine, hot chocolates with whipped cream and delicious Bellini cocktails - i personally can't say no to a glass of fizz so opted for the Berry & Winter Spice Bellini which was so delicious! The prices vary but the cocktails started from £6.00. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The undercover ice rink is located near House of Fraser and is a whopping 600msq and fully sheltered from the rain! The ice rink is now open and will be running until the 1st of January. The prices vary but for an adult it costs £9.75 and for under 16's £7.75, you can book online through their <a href="http://intu.co.uk/lakeside/event-archive/ice-rink">website</a> and they are running special events throughout the season.. they even have a silent disco! The atmosphere on the rink is brilliant complete with a ring side DJ! From the ice rink staff to the bar staff, everyone was incredibly helpful and lovely - massive shout out to a member of the Ambulance crew who helped me get my skates on!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Just remember to wrap up warm and bring your gloves!</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Hey Everyone!</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Skincare in the winter has to be one of the most important things, with the season change the harsh cold air can cause your skin to go dry. Whilst coming to the end of my loved <a href="http://www.jessicaann.co.uk/2016/08/clinique-take-day-off-cleansing-balm.html">Clinique</a> take the day off balm, i didn't really want to fork out another £22.00 so went for a slightly cheaper drugstore option and i have to admit I'm SO happy i did! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The <a href="http://www.feelunique.com/p/Vichy-Purete-Thermale-3-In-1-One-Step-Cleanser-200ml?option=48210&gclid=CLyezpv6hdACFVAz0wodzUgCYg&gclsrc=aw.ds">Vichy Purete Thermale 3 in 1 Cleanser</a> can be found at boots or on feel you unique for around £12.00 for 200ml. Vichy is a brand which has been perfecting skincare for over 70 years, this European brand is owned by L'oreal and uses thermal spa water from the hot springs of the town Vichy in France in their products. </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Their powerful formula's have been tested by dermatologists who have specifically tested on sensitive skin and eyes - the cleanser is hypoallergenic with no parabens which makes it the perfect product for all the sensitive skinned people out there! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The <a href="http://www.feelunique.com/p/Vichy-Purete-Thermale-3-In-1-One-Step-Cleanser-200ml?option=48210&gclid=CLyezpv6hdACFVAz0wodzUgCYg&gclsrc=aw.ds">Thermale 3 in 1 cleanser </a>claims to have cleansing milk, toner and eye make-up remover in the one product.. which did make me a little sceptical - as you can imagine! The product itself is not as thick as other cream cleansers I've used (Liz Earle & Burts Bee's) however it goes on easily and provides a very deep cleanse, leaving you feeling refreshed and squeaky clean. </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The eye make-up removal part of the product is by far the best I've used, it removes it with such ease and pretty much one go! It doesn't sting and doesn't leave clouding in my eyes! Once I've used it to remove eye make-up i like to go in with a second cleanse to get rid of any stubborn make-up - to do this i use a warm muslin cloth. I'm not really sure where the toner comes into play, but maybe that's why the product isn't as thick as normal cream cleansers.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">All in all, this is a product i would definitely buy again! It does everything it says on the tin and is super affordable! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Have you tried any <a href="http://www.vichy.co.uk/">Vichy</a> products? What's your favourite? </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Hey Everyone! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I recently got an email through from <a href="https://colourpop.com/">Colourpop</a> Cosmetics, offering $5 international shipping for one weekend only. And as you can see.. I </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">obviously jumped at the chance. </span><a href="https://colourpop.com/" style="font-family: "trebuchet ms", sans-serif;">Colourpop</a><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"> a Los Angelo's based company founded in 2014 has been huge on the blogasphere and Youtube scene for a year or so now, the likes of Desi Perkins, Lustrelux, Nikkietutorials and obviously Kathleen Lights all rave about the products. The thing i like most about these products is that they are seriously budget friendly, with each product being around $5 - not only this but the products themselves are not tested on animals. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Below are the products i picked up. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhz6M_mJWC16UiEk9qGmuvmfNBmZYB34GSzbP4qTV7SFeFCYDuJI7HrHHQpt6_E59snCiE18IAkPJfKLmnra-b37NdQtNUwXgMkade-NMsocF-SgDogV3afPaKOWN0Afc5XJH176FvJvbw/s1600/PA154131.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhz6M_mJWC16UiEk9qGmuvmfNBmZYB34GSzbP4qTV7SFeFCYDuJI7HrHHQpt6_E59snCiE18IAkPJfKLmnra-b37NdQtNUwXgMkade-NMsocF-SgDogV3afPaKOWN0Afc5XJH176FvJvbw/s1600/PA154131.JPG" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The <b><a href="https://colourpop.com/products/where-the-light-is">'Where The Light Is'</a></b> eyeshadow quad was the first thing I put in my basket. These four shadows designed by the YouTube beauty Kathleen Lights are the perfect foursome to create that statement Autumnal smokey eye every blogger dreams of. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Clockwise starting from the back; </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><b><a href="https://colourpop.com/products/glow">Glow</a></b> - A beautiful vanilla base shade with a matte finish </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><b><a href="https://colourpop.com/products/kathleenlights">Kathleenlights</a></b> - A gorgeous golden copper with a pearlised finish </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><b><a href="https://colourpop.com/products/blaze">Blaze</a></b> - The winner out of the four for me, a coco bronze sprinkled with multi dimensional glitter and a metallic finish</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><b><a href="https://colourpop.com/products/cornelious">Cornelious</a> -</b> A mid tone warm brown / caramel with a matte finish </span><br />
<br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I have to admit, these are the most insanely pigmented shadows i have ever used. The colour pay off is amazing for such a cheap product. They are very easily blended and do not crease, they are so creamy that they almost feel like a cream shadow when swatched. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Next up, after much deliberation i went for 3 Lippie Stix and matching Lippie Pencils. I went for two matte's and one gloss finish and love them all so much! They are so easy to apply and work really well as a combo. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Another perfect shade from the Kathleenlights collection, this product is a dusty mauve shade and my favourite out of the three. It has a matte finish, but doesn't feel drying - it is really easy to apply and feels comfortable throughout the day. The pencil makes a perfect base for the lippie stix. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I wanted a new red shade for Autumn but not a dark berry shade, more of a bright red channel. Again, this is another matte finish and wears and applies well like lumiere on the lip. It is such a vibrant red shade and I love how bright it is.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">This lighter nude pink has a gloss finish, this super sheer gloss looks gorgeous on it's own our paired with the matching lippie stix. I must say, this is the only one which doesn't match perfectly - the lippie pencil is so much more brown than the stix. Even though it appears browner in the swatch when paired together with the stix it's a truly gorgeous combo! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">In regards to getting to the items, <a href="https://colourpop.com/">Colourpop</a> now do international shipping. I managed to get a special offer of $5 but I think it's normally quite expensive - I then wasn't expecting the hefty customers charge of nearly £15.00 on top (so just bare in mind when ordering). However, it still made the items I bought around £5.00 per product, which is incredibly cheap for the quality that your getting! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Hey Everyone!</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">If you follow me on any of my social medias, then you will know I'm a pretty huge Disney fan. I've been going since i was little, but most recently have visited during Halloween, Christmas, Spring and Summer! </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">I wanted to share with you my top tips & tricks for Disneyland Paris - please bare in mind, that this is just the way i like to do Disney and it might not be everyone's way! </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms"; font-size: large;"><b>Pre Disneyland Paris </b></span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><b>Accommodation</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">I know that most people stay in the Disneyland hotels and get some great perks, including extra magic hours and food options. However, as Emma and I normally book these trips on a spur of the moment thing and on a budget we book a hotel which is based around a 15 minute walk from the park. I have stayed in the <a href="http://www.hipark-residences.com/web/h/en/residence/serris-val-europe/extended-stay-hotels-c_8196.html">Hiperk Serris</a> three times and each time my stay has been enjoyable. It's cheap, clean and close to Disney (they even have a free shuttle that takes you too and from the parks if you can't be bothered to walk!) - this makes it the perfect base for your trip.. to be honest, you barely spend any time at the hotel!</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">
</span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><b>Train Tickets</b></span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">If your coming from Charles Du Gaulle Airport, pre book your train tickets online. The TGV high speed train runs about every hour and takes you directly into Disney. I once didn't pre-book and it cost me about £30.00 for a 9 minute one way train journey - which i didn't even have a seat for! The last time i went however, i pre-booked and got a return journey for £25.00. The train from CDG Airport will take you to Marne La Valee-Chessy train station which is located inside the Disney grounds. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><b>Park Tickets</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">Disneyland Paris is split into two parks, the Disneyland Park and the Walt Disney Studios Park. I would say the Disneyland Park is more traditional where as the Walt Disney Studios has more fast paced roller coasters and action shows. I ALWAYS go to Disney for the weekend so buy a 2 day park hopper (which i would recommend)</span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"> However if travelling on a day trip from Paris i have also down the 1 day ticket. 1 day can be slightly rushed, but me and my boyfriend still managed to fit in everything we wanted to do. I</span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"> always buy online through a company called </span><a href="http://www.attractiontix.co.uk/" style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">Attraction Tix</a><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">, they send you an e-code and you literally go up to the fancy touch machines and print your tickets!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><b>What to take in to the park? </b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">Firstly, take a water bottle with you! They are expensive to buy but free to fill up at water fountains. Obviously, check the weather and make sure you're packed for all situations, it might start off sunny but your In the park until 11pm so will need a jacket. Comfortable shoes are a must as your walking miles each day (i would suggest trainers). And last but not least, if your a huge Disney fan like myself and love a theme.. then always co-ordinate with your bestie!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms"; font-size: large;"><b>Disneyland Paris Park Tips</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><b>Disneyland Paris App</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">Download the Disneyland Paris App.. and use it! It's free on the App Store and is an absolute life saver, you can check parade, firework and show times in advance making planning your day incredibly easy! It also gives you real time line queueing updates - when we sat down for lunch or breakfast we roughly planned out what we where going to do based on the line times.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><b>Pre-book meals</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">So instead of paying more for a hotel, which your barely in - i like to spend a little more on dining out once inside the park! </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">If your not sure on what you would like, or never been before you can check out the <a href="http://www.dlpguide.com/">DLP guide </a>in advance - this is a super handy guide with example menus for each restaurant inside the park and in the Disney village. I like to pre-book for around 8 o'clock, have a long leisurely lunch drinking vino and then make my way to watch the fireworks. My favourites include the blue lagoon inside the pirates of the Caribbean ride (you watch the boats go round..) Walt's Dinner directly outside the castle and Annettes American Dinner, because it makes you feel like your in grease! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><b>Fast Passes</b> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">These are great, but I've only used them a handful of times (I'm really not sure why, should of use them on my latest trip!) You can go up to your favourite rides and they will release fast pass hours (example between 13.00pm - 13.45pm) you scan your ticket and it prints you out a ticket to use between these hours. The only downside is you can only use one at a time, and you basically have to be in the right place at the right time in order to gain one! They are useful for the rides with longer lines. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><b>Fireworks </b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">They are by far my favourite bit of the whole weekend! Paris have a light, laser, water and firework show which projects all the Disney classics on to the castle. You do not need to sit and wait in front of the castle for 3 hours in order to gain a good spot, to be honest each time i have </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">walked down about 15 minutes before the firework show started and slot in either side of the castle and always have a fantastic view!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><b>Parades </b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">If your staying for more than 2 days (which is recommended) I suggest you see the parades on one of the days only. This gives you a wide window of time during the parade when the best rides quieten down - I always head for the Haunted Mansion and Pirates of the Caribbean and find the queueing time considerably less. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><b>Disney Village</b> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">Make sure you check out the Disney Village, it's awesome. They have restaurants, sports bars, western bars and numerous shops! Me and Emma had an absolutely fantastic night in Billy Bob's western bar and they played some classics hits! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">This absolute bargain of a moisturiser comes in at a mere £2.99 and is by far the best moisturiser I have used. This day cream has SPF 15 which is a huge added bonus as my current foundation doesn't contain any SPF and i am super pale! The product itself is quite a heavy one, however it doesn't leave my skin feeling oily or sticky and my make-up doesn't slide around. I actually prefer this to the Liz Earle intense moisturiser. My skin gets quite dry in the winter, so this is going to be a life saver! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">99p for a fan brush? That's actually good quality?? Yep, you heard me! This fan brush was bought on a wim, for the simple fact i didn't own one and wanted to try one! This brush is super soft and picks and holds the pigment well, i love this for highlighting! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><a href="https://uk.burberry.com/powder-blush/">Burberry Skin Illuminator in Nude 001</a> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">I was lucky enough to be given this burberry skin illuminator as present and have been loving it ever since. The finely milled powder looks matte in the pan, but once used is really build-able and gives off a gorgeous frosty pearl highlight. It gives the subtle highlight glow i love and as i am so pale it's the perfect colour to match my skin tone. I'm not sure it would work for darker skin tones as it is pretty frosted, however for us pale girls it works an absolute treat! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">I've heard a few people rave about this product and I'm a huge fan of Soap & Glory so decided to give it a purchase. The product instantly caught my eye as it's aimed for people who suffer from oily skin. I was very pleasantly surprised when i first applied the product, i was expecting the typical silicon texture of most primers but this has a lovely silky lotion type texture making it easy to apply. </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">T</span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">he vitamin E gives you hydration whilst the pore shrink technology helps combats large pores, my make-up went on smoothly and I've found myself reaching for this everyday.. I LOVE it! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">This drugstore foundation is certainly giving my much loved Estee Lauder double wear a run for it's money. This product is described as full coverage, giving a matte finish and i would agree - i found it very easy to work and blend into the skin with my beauty blender. Now obviously i didn't try leaving it on for 24 hours, because lets face it.. that is slightly wrong! I did however try it from about 8am - 10pm and was impressed with it's staying powder, it hadn't gone patchy and my nose was the only place that really needed a touch up! I would however say make sure you prime moisturise before use as it can cling to dry skin. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">I mean, if you haven't had a Bath & Bodyworks poketbac can you even call yourself a blogger? These are my absolute favourite and i always have one on my desk and in my bag! My bestie Emma brought this back from Vegas and i absolutely LOVE It, it's such a fresh autumnal smell, which is a lovely change as i normally go for the sweet scents! If your ever in America or have a friend going make sure you stock up.. or maybe if everyone tweets them they will open a store over here.. pleaaaaase bath & body works we need you! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">This was a little bit of an impulsive buy, I've tried the normal version of this and found it dried my skin out around my eyes. When i stumbled across this beauty i was intrigued, obviously oil is nourishing so i popped it in my basket. It removes make-up with no hassle, doesn't sting my eyes and leaves my eyelashes feeling conditioned and well loved! It doesn't leave an oily residue on my skin and i love to use this before i cleanse my skin. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Hello Everyone! </span><br />
<br />
<div align="justify">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Welcome back to round 2 of the fake tan diaries! My first blog post was about the much loved<a href="http://www.jessicaann.co.uk/2016/05/fake-tan-diaries-st-tropez-self-tan-bronzing-mousse.html"> St. Tropez self tanning mousse</a>, this time I've gone for the Australian made and produced <a href="http://www.superdrug.com/b/Bondi%20Sands">Bondi Sands</a>. I've heard some fantastic reviews on this product and was eager to give it a go myself - I picked this up from <a href="http://www.superdrug.com/New-for-Valentine%27s-Day---Shop-Cosmetics/Bondi-Sands-Self-tanning-Foam-Light-Medium-200ml/p/397200">Superdrug</a> for <i>£14.99 for 200ml</i> (<a href="http://www.superdrug.com/New-for-Valentine%27s-Day---Shop-Cosmetics/Bondi-Sands-Self-tanning-Foam-Light-Medium-200ml/p/397200">currently on sale for £9.95!</a>) so a lot cheaper than a bottle of St. Tropez - and in my opinion better!</span></div>
<div align="justify">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><br /></span></div>
<div align="justify">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">My bestie and fellow blogger Emma (<a href="http://www.lifewithoutafunsponge.com/">LWFS</a>) had recommended this to me as it comes in different shades - light to medium and dark. I obviously being the ghost I am picked up the light to medium and have been loving it ever since! </span></div>
<div align="justify">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><br /></span></div>
<div align="justify">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">The product itself is incredibly easy to blend, build and apply leaving you with a gorgeous sun kissed tan. It has a colour guide in the formulation making it easy to see any areas you may have missed or need a bit of extra blending, I've never had a problem with the end result and I have always had a good all over even tan (except for when I got drunk and decided to fake tan.. error!) I normally use around 2-3 pumps on each area of my body and apply in circular motions, i</span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">f you do want to deepen the tan you can wait 30 minutes and darken with an extra few pumps - this is great as i find my legs never seem to take the colour as much as the rest of my body! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><br /></span></div>
<div align="justify">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">I applied this after completing my standard fake tanning routine, exfoliate, shave and pop moisturiser on the areas which seem to go a little darker (elbows & knees!) it dries really quickly and doesn't leave you feeling sticky, meaning you can put loose dark clothes on soon after! The colour which developed was a beautiful even bronzed shade which didn't leave me feeling orange. The tan itself is enriched with Vitamin E and Aloe Vera which made the tan last for </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">well over a week before needing a good scrub and re-apply. I would also recommend you moisturise every day with a non-oil or fragrance based moisturiser as I did find it pro-longed the tan (I use the <a href="http://www.clinique.co.uk/product/1686/6089/Skin-Care/Hand-Body-Care/Deep-Comfort-Body-Butter">Clinique, Deep comfort body butter</a>). I even used this product on holiday in Mexico.. Just be careful you don't sleep on anything white as it can stain bedding and clothing!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">My only con, is that the smell is not ideal! WHEN, will be able to have a non-biscuit fake tan!?!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">250g jam sugar </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><b>For the biscuits</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">250g very soft unsalted butter</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">50g icing sugar</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">225g plain flour</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">25g cornflour</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><b>For the filling</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">100g unsalted butter, softened</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">200g icing sugar (plus extra for dusting)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">1/2 tsp vanilla extract</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><b>Method</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">1. You will start by making the jam, put the raspberries in a small, deep-sided saucepan and crush them with a masher. Add the jam sugar, bring to the boil over a low heat and then once the sugar has melted increase the heat and boil for a further 4 minutes. Remove from the head and carefully pour into a shallow container -if you do not like seeds in your jam now is the time to sieve. I then popped mine in the fridge and left to set. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">2. Preheat the oven to 190C / 170C Fan or Gas 5. Line 3 baking sheets with non stick baking paper, then using a 5cm round cutter draw 8 circles on each sheet of paper, spaced well apart. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">3. Put the butter and icing sugar into a bowl and beat until pale and fluffy, sift in the flour and cornflour and mix thoroughly, you need to mixture to be quite soft so your able to pipe it. Once it is soft, spoon the mixture into a piping bag with a medium star nozzle and pipe 24 round swirls inside the circles on the baking sheets. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">4. Bake in the centre of the oven for 13 - 15 minutes until a pale golden-brown colour. Cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes and then carefully transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">5. Once they have fully cooled, measure the butter and sieved the butter for the filling. Add the vanilla extract and either beat with a wooden spoon or an electric whisk until very light and smooth. Spoon the soft mixture into a pipping bag with a large start nozzle. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">6. Spoon a little of your jam onto the flat side of 13 biscuits, place the jam-side up on a cooling rack and pipe the buttercream over the jam. Sandwich the two together and dust with icing sugar to finish. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">They went down an absolute treat at our family Sunday dinner and someone even said they tasted better than the shop bought ones! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Welcome back, with pay day just around the corner i wanted to share with you a few items i have been lusting over during the month of August. As i always put together beauty and fashion wishlists i decided to head down a different route this month and put together my most desired techie bits and bobs! </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">1. <a href="http://www.panasonic.com/uk/consumer/viera-televisions/led/tx-65dx902b.html">4K Ultra HD Panasonic TV</a></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">It's no secret to my friends and family that I'm a huge film nerd and i can fly through a box set with a click of my fingers. And what better way to watch my favourite things then on this <a href="http://www.panasonic.com/uk/consumer/viera-televisions/led/tx-65dx902b.html">Ultra HD TV Panasonic</a>. This beautifully sleek and smart TV would fit in perfectly to any home design. One of my favourite features of this TV other than the crystal clear images has to be the built in WIFI and Freeview! I can't think of anything better than sitting down on a Sunday night and watching a good documentary on catch up. This nifty gadget has even been tuned by film makers leaving it to deliver outstanding colour contrast and brightness. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">2. <a href="http://www.skinnydiplondon.com/products/zara-martin-rose-gold-kitty-headphones?variant=11703219719">Skinnydip x Zara Martin Rose Gold Kitty Headphones</a></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Every time i see Gabriella Lindley put these on in one of her vlogs, i die a little inside knowing i don't yet own them! Love rose gold, love cats and love over the ear headphones. What more could you want?!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">3. <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Photography-Studio-2x135W-Soft-Box-Continuous-Lighting-Softbox-Light-Stand-Kit-/311015356703?hash=item4869f5b91f:g:XPgAAOSwLa9UU1Xo">Soft Box Lighting </a></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">It's no lie that a bloggers biggest nightmare is heading into the winter season, the pain of trying to take photo's in natural sunlight can prove to be an absolute pain in the arse. These soft boxes have been recommended to me on numerous occasions and are apparently super easy to set up and store away! As soon as the clocks go back i will 100% getting my hands on these. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">4. <a href="http://www.johnlewis.com/apple-ipad-pro-a9x-ios-9-7-wi-fi-32gb/p2609377?colour=Space%20Grey">Ipad Pro - Rose Gold</a> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I must admit, i was never really a fan of Apple products until i had my first iPhone two years ago. Since then i have gone on to purchase a Macbook Pro and upgrade to a iPhone 6s, now several years later i would love to expand my collection and add in an iPad pro. They are so handy when you can't be bothered with your laptop and are fantastic for travel. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">5. <a href="http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/uk/catalog/productdetail.jsp?id=5560434390045&category=PHOTOGRAPHY-EU">Fujifilm Instax Mini Camera </a></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Ok, who else remembers these from their childhood? Waiting and shaking to find out if the photo you had taken was totally cute or totally ugly? Not only do these remind me of my childhood the images that come out from the camera now are obviously of a much higher quality, they are also so versatile and can be used to dress up any space or stored in a memory book! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">6. <a href="https://happyplugs.com/product/sound-piece-mini-leopard/">Happy Plugs Mini Sound Piece Speaker - Leopard Grill </a></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I have wanted a little speaker for my room for a while now, but just haven't found one that i loved. Whilst browsing through the urban outfitters website i saw this nifty little wireless bluetooth speaker. What i really loved about these is that you can switch up the front grill and change the pattern! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I hope you enjoyed this months Wishlist, is there anything you would buy on this list? What's your favourite item? </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Hello Everyone!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">Welcome back, today I'm going to be chatting about skincare. Over the last half a year or so, I've mentioned in a few of my most recent blog posts that I have stepped back from buying make-up and have concentrated on haircare and skincare. From my teenage years i have always been the kinda gal to cleanse, tone and moisturise but have always stuck to the same products thinking they suited my skin well. It was only recently i noticed my skin looking a little dull and not as hydrated as it used to be, with this in mind and whilst i was </span></span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">scrolling through the copious amounts of cleansers on <a href="http://www.feelunique.com/">Feel unique</a>. I came across the <a href="http://www.clinique.co.uk/">Clinique</a> take the day off cleansing balm. I've never really been won over by a balm, but had been won over by Clinique in the past, so i popped it in my basket and was excited to test it out!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">When I first opened the pot I was happily pleased </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">with how much product was inside, it's not a small balm and the product goes a long way. Just like most balms, once you have scooped a little out and start to work it into fingertips and then skin it turns into an oil based cleanser which glides across the face with ease. There's no residue from the product and it leaves your skin feeling dry, nourished and smooth - some can leave your skin feeling tight and squeaky, but this doesn't! The product is completely un-fragranced which is a huge bonus as heavily fragranced products can irritate sensitive skin. It melts away waterproof mascara and gives my skin a good deep cleanse before i proceed to tone.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The 125ml tub of <a href="http://www.clinique.co.uk/product/1673/6424/Skin-Care/Cleansers-Makeup-Removers/Take-The-Day-Off-Cleansing-Balm">Take The Day Off</a> retails at £22.00 and suits all skin types, this may seem a little pricey to some but as i mentioned above a little goes a long way! I've really enjoyed using this product and feel it has helped with the redness and appearance of my skin, i have had no breakout's since using it and i just find it a lovely gentle cleanser.</span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"> I will 100% be buying this one again! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Hey Guys!</span><br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">On Sunday </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">afternoon whilst the sun was shining myself and the other half decided to take a trip to <a href="http://www.roundstonefarm.co.uk/">Roundstone Pick Your Own Farm</a> in Ferring which is close to Worthing and Brighton. This is the best and cheapest P.Y.O I have ever been too, not only that it has a HUGE range of fruit and vegetables which is lovely too see. Unfortunately my camera ran out of battery so I only managed to snap the strawberry fields, however I 100% know we will be going back so will make sure my camera is fully charged next time! </span></div>

Before you head to the fields, you collect a basket for your fruit and clear plastic bags for your veg, there's a map so you don't get lost and for any members of the group who are less able to walk around the selection of fields there are free tractor rides which do loops around the field dropping off and picking up as they go round. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">If you didn't already know I went to Mexico last month and to my absolute delight.. and some serious google searching I found that the nearest town Playa Del Carmen had a haaauge Sephora! I was so determined to find it, it took two trips to Playa Del Carmen in 35 degree (If that isn't dedication then I'm not sure what is!). Whilst I was there I treated myself to something that I have wanted for quite some time. The reason I had never splurged out on this product is that it's currently exclusive to the USA and Sephora.. However</span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">, a week or so ago <a href="http://www.katvondbeauty.com/products/shop-all-products">Kat Von D</a> FINALLY announced she was bringing her range to Debenhams across the UK which is so exciting! </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><br /><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">A few of my favourite Youtubers including <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/NikkieTutorials">Nikkie Tutorials</a> and <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/jeffreestar">Jeffree Star</a> (awkward, maybe he won't be using Kat's products anymore after the drama?!) always rock this shade & light palette when contouring and highlighting. I've never been able to find a palette which is suitable for my pale complexion, when I saw this had 6 different shades suitable for all skin tones I was incredibly excited to try it out and share my views with you lovely lot. I know some of the shades in the palette will be too dark for my skin - but Glam Life Gu</span></span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">ru Tati suggests in <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOtocTCnKKQ">this YouTube</a> video to wear them as a lid colour if they are no go for contouring instead. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">First of all the packaging in true <a href="http://www.katvondbeauty.com/products/shop-all-products">Kat Von D</a> is truly gothic an</span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">d beautifully designed. It has</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">solid black matte encasement with large pans and a huge mirror. <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The palette contains three large shades of contour paired with three smaller highlighters, they are all 100% matte with no sparkle or shimmer, making them the perfect sculpting powders.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Each pan is super pigmented as you can see from my swatch below, being so pigmented I would be careful when using and in fact would advise to start with a little and build up the product, which is incredibly easy to do. T</span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">he texture of the powders is incredibly smooth and blend able but it does also have a little powderiness - this however has never been an issue when using, I simply tap off my brush before application! I find it very easy to work with and if I do go a little heavy on the contour I can blend it out very easily with my beauty blender.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms", sans-serif;">An added bonus to this is Kat's unique and beautiful drawings which show you exactly how </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">to define cheekbones, slim down the face and shape the nose in a step by step guide on how to use. And if your still confused </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">make your way onto YouTube and search through the hundreds of amazing reviews and tutorials on how to use. My favourite combination is actually sombre and lucid, so the two palest colours out of the pan. This palette is so versatile that fair to dark skin tones can use and as I mentioned above, if it's to dark pop it on your lid and create a dramatic eye with it!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">Overall I loved this palette and I'm looking forward to welcoming more Kat Von D products to my make-up collection. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">Have you ever tried any of Kat Von D's products? Which is your favourite?!</span><br />
