This weeks finds & fun!

Hi ladies & gents (I know there are a few) Thanks so much with sticking with the blog. Ive had a really busy week or so, hence the lack of updates. 

So what have i been up too?

Shopping!
 I found a gorgeous little stand in TK max which i thought would look pretty on a table if i ever do a craft fair of some sort. It fits my body butters perfectly.


I've also made a few new fragrances in the Soy Wax Melts. This is a dupe for the famous Snow Fairy & I've made a Rock Star Dupe too which seem to be going down well with people. These are 6 for £3
 
 I've also been finishing an order for wedding favours which i think are so so pretty.They are little bath bombs with a creamy cocoa butter and shea topping.


Talking of weddings one of my best friends wedding was at the weekend. She looked Stunning and it was a brilliant day. Of course i cried buckets full.


I've also been working on a bubble bar recipe which hopefully will be coming soon. This one is fragranced in Cherry Maraschino with a hand made sugar heart embed. It smells gorgeous.
 

 I'm finding a huge love for Pinterest and Instagram which i can see becoming very addictive. All i need is a few more hrs in the day and everything will be perfect!
Thanks for reading xxx

Latest Buys!

I thought I'd show you what i have been spending my pennies on lately and it's rather a random mix of clothes, accessories and a few house hold bits to add to the mix.


Feather Earrings Dorothy Perkins

Gold Necklace Dorothy Perkins

 Boots (I know its not boots weather but they were a bargain)

Grey Cardi Primark

All Saints Copy Chocolate dress

Urban Decay Polish Superdrug 99p sale :)

Black Patent Shoes & bag Next

White Dress

Beige Dress/top

Next Birdcage Light

Shoe Storage Ikea

Most of these items were picked up in the sale or from random cheapy shops. I'm most excited about my shoe storage and light shade which is for my new dressing room :)
It's brilliant to be able to pick out what i want at a glance rather than rummaging through boxes of shoes.

I plan on wearing the white dress and patent bag and shoes on Saturday as I'm going out for a meal and drinks which I'm really looking forward to. You might notice a lack of beauty product buys because I'm trying not to keep buying products when i have so many to use up.
Have a great day xx

Cosmetic Candy Shop till you drop!

Imagine how excited i was when the fabulous Cosmetic Candy asked me if i would like to review a few items from her shop which she runs from her blog. Eeeek i was just a little bit excited to say the least. I'm a massive fan and i couldn't believe she had asked little me of all people :)

Now as you can imagine she sells a whole host of gorgeous girly products including everything from hair accessories to false lashes, jewelry and lots lots more.


Look at the gorgeous selection of treats i was sent!

This little set of his and hers underwear bags is just too cute!

I used these little bags to pack my undies in for my hols. It was so easy to find them rather than rummaging in my suitcase and they look so chic and pretty. Perfect for a weekend away too so you can keep that little bit more organised.


I was so pleased with this pretty gold necklace. The pearl and diamante detail gives it a girly finish and perfect when you want to draw a bit of attention to your neck area. I have worn this quite a few times now and it looks great with simple pearl stud earrings.



 I love flowers and the little diamante trim adds to the prettiness of them. These pretty peach earrings are just adorable


I love the fact that you can model these into any shape and i like to have a nice variety of different styles and patterns to jazz up my hair. This pretty floral one would look great with a pretty plain white summer dress or a little denim playsuit.
There are loads of other pretty patterns available but be prepared to make a hard choice as there are too many nice ones to choose from.

Wearing the floral head scarf & Earrings!

Rocco didn't want to miss out on all the fun. ( One to blackmail him with when he's older )


Have you checked out the shop yet? If not then here is the link. Hope you have all had a great weekend xx
