February Favourites 2018

Wednesday, 7 March 2018


The end of another month has come and gone and I'm left feeling like this year is already slipping away too quickly! So, just to ground myself in time, I am writing about all the bits and bobs I LOVED during the 28 days of February.

Wednesday, 28 February 2018


Another month, another book box!
Today I'm going to share with you the contents of my Book Box Club February box, and let me tell you, it's a good'n :)

My All Time Favourite Netflix Films

Wednesday, 21 February 2018




 As per the request of a certain friend of mine (you know who you are ☺︎), I thought I would share my absolute favourite films that are currently on Netflix. Quick heads up: there's quite a lot! I've arranged them into categories for easy perusing and have added each Rotten Tomatoes  rating with a short description on my top 2 picks of each section, just to entice you into watching them.
So grab some popcorn, a refreshing drink, curl up in a cosy blanket and enjoy!

Book Haul - January + February

Wednesday, 14 February 2018


  New year, new books! 

After finishing the best book series in the history of books ever for the 5th? time (Harry Potter of course) I thought it was about time I acquired some brand-spanking-new reads to add to my non-existent shelf (I have to store my books in a draw under my bed). The majority of these books have been sitting in my TBR (to be read) list for quite some time so when they arrived at my door I couldn't help but dive right in, meaning I may have already completed 6 of them... But hey, doesn't that just show what great picks they were!

DIY Room Decor

Wednesday, 7 February 2018


Hello hello, welcome back! Today I am sharing 2 quick, cheap and easy DIYs that I put up in my bedroom (but they could be used anywhere really) a couple of weeks ago. I was inspired by the the upcoming spring season and wanted to get my start to 2018 much more colourful and happy :) So, naturally I hopped on over to Pinterest and Tumblr to look at some  d r e a m  interiors of mine and the same day drove to HobbyCraft to grab some supplies.

Book Box Club Unboxing - December + January

Wednesday, 31 January 2018


If you've been tagging along with my blog for a while now, you may have discovered that I. love. reading. Many a time I have mentioned how recently (within the past year) reading has once again become a huge part of my everyday life, whereas before 2017 begun it unfortunately took a bit of a back seat in my priorities. Well, as I very much want this habit to continue developing I thought I'd aid myself by making sure I always have a new novel to hand, and what better way to do that than have one automatically delivered to me every month?!

My Travel Wishlist

Wednesday, 24 January 2018


As a Brit, I am automatically programmed to be obsessed with going on holiday. Escaping the cold confines of the small island that is the UK is, I would say, a main goal of many residents of this country.

Room Decor Haul

Wednesday, 17 January 2018


The beginning of 2018 has brought with it the cravings for a fresh start in every aspect of my life. My health, savings and environment have been revamped in a new and improved way to help me feel and be the best I can be throughout the year. 

Books I Read In 2017

Wednesday, 10 January 2018


2017 was my year for reading. Don't get me wrong, I plan for every year from now on to be the same, it's just that last year I really fell back in love with it. I think I've mentioned before, but I had an extremely long dry spell where I did not pick up a book unless I was on a beach. This lasted for a good 5 years (at least).

A White Christmas

Saturday, 30 December 2017


Snow makes everything pretty. An iridescent blanket covers all dark and tattered details, leaving a soft glow to our surroundings. The atmosphere transforms; everything becomes muffled and somewhat slower than before, as if we were in a snow globe winter wonderland.

72 Hours In Kyoto, Japan

Sunday, 26 November 2017

The Red Gates

We made it! Our last stop of he Japan tour: Kyoto! Being the old capital of the country before the emperor moved to Tokyo, Kyoto is just as bustling and busy but with both rural looking areas and built up city blocks. With just over 3 days to explore it all, every minute was packed full of activities, barely giving us time to sleep! 

48 Hours In Nikko, Japan

Thursday, 23 November 2017


Day 1

Tokyo ended too soon, however the longing to stay was put aside knowing we were on to the next new and exciting place. Nikko, a small rural village about 2 hours outside of the capital, was waiting to impress with its stunning views and fresh country air.

72 Hours In Tokyo, Japan

Thursday, 16 November 2017


Just over 2 weeks ago (how has time gone that fast?!) my dad, sisters and I went on a family trip across the world to Japan for a 10 day express tour. It was by far one of the best holidays I've ever been on and have now fallen in love with the city of Tokyo.

Mini Beauty Haul

Thursday, 2 November 2017


Oops I did it again! *sings Britney Spears for the rest of the day* 

So yeahhh, I spent a little more money, money that I don't have (should be saving) but I am justifying this by writing a blog post about it :) logic.
I went on Cult Beauty just for a browse and ended up caving and putting some items in my basket. Here they are!

October Favourites

Tuesday, 31 October 2017


Happy Halloween! I hope you're out having a good time with some friends, preferably in a scary or funny costume with lots of sweets and chocolate :)

My Favourite Bands

Sunday, 29 October 2017

The Amazons - Oslo Hackney - 13.10.16

As all of my friends can easily tell you, I. love. bands. Gigs, vinyls, t-shirts, festivals, singing at the top of my lungs and more, I'm a little obsessed...

Lush Halloween Haul!

Friday, 27 October 2017


Excitement doesn't even begin to cover all of the emotions I felt when this beautiful box arrived on my doorstep! As soon as I opened the front door the aroma filled my nose immediately and I was transported to a Lush shop, one of my favourite places on Earth. Ok maybe a bit dramatic but seriously, I love Lush.
