This is the time of year when we have a couple of weeks off and don't know what to do with ourselves. I have to constantly remind myself to do little things like reading otherwise I'd spend my whole time off watching Netflix! I have always been a bookworm, and hoard books like they're going extinct! Even though my Kindle is my travel companion, I miss having a physical book in my hand. When I feel like relaxing, I'm making myself reach for my books more, otherwise I just end up reading them when I go to bed (normally at a ridiculous time) and never really dedicate any proper time to them. I've decided to collate a selection of books to get into this winter- I'm currently reading Gone Girl, but I'm determined to get through as many of these as possible.
Merry Christmas everyone!
Hope you all had a lovely day and took some time to relax! I spent it with my family and Chris's family, and the day was filled with laughter, tonnes of food and games galore! It's been one of those Christmas's where it's been very chilled out, which is nice when you've got a lot going on in your life. But with New Year around the corner, and lot's of exciting things going on next year, I've got plenty to look forward to!
Winter is officially here! Not necessarily in its traditional form- we’ve not seen a glimpse of snow in the Shire! More in the wintery, cold, rainy, windy sense. Not nice. Weather like this really makes dressing a pain, and it normally ends up with me snuggled in jeans, and thick jumpers. That’s all very well when you’re just running errands, but what happens when you actually want to go out somewhere nice? This is my constant struggle. But I normally get over this by standing in front of my wardrobe and having a long hard think. I want to be warm and stylish, and there are two essentials from Apricot that I've been reaching for this winter.
Here's a little day vlog of when I went to the #BUNACSummerInTheStates event, and I also tell you about my travel plans for next year.
Who can believe that Christmas is less than a week away?! Even though I am feeling Christmassy, I’m certainly not ready for it. Let’s just say that I still need to buy the majority of my presents…oops! I’ve just finished work for the holidays, so this prime time to get present hunting! Luckily, I’ve had some help from some of my favourite brands who have sent me some fab present ideas! If you’re looking for some last minute stocking fillers for your friends and family, take a look at my picks below…
It's the time of year when we take pleasure in hot soup warming our bodies. It's a welcome treat to come home to after a cold day and is like a snuggly comfort blanket. Even though I love a good Heinz tomato soup, homemade soup is another treat altogether! You know exactly what's going into it, and it is so easy to make. There are honestly no rules, and you can even make it from leftovers!
This is a bit of a mish mash video of what makeup products I've been reaching for when I've been doing my everyday makeup routine! Hope you enjoy! So excited to be back doing sit down videos :)
