Dreaming of

So its another cold night, I am wrapped on the sofa in some fleecy pjs, wrapped up my favourite faux fur blanket and sipping on hot chocolate and it seems like the perfect oppertunity to get back to some blogging.

My thoughts are still a little bit all over the place, my mind wanders and  I day dream more often then usual and that is saying something, which brings me onto this post.....a little wish list for you all, here are some of the pretty things I like to purchase and with pay day around the corner I have a feeling someone of these little things may mysteriously get delievered to my door, but time will tell.

So lets have a cheeky look then....


Dreaming of




1. Stereotypical blogger- there has to be a candle on my wish list and I have been lusting after one of these pretty, sweet smelling Jo Malone candles for so long, not sure how much longer I can resist.

2. The whole world of beauty bloggers are raving about the Real Techniques bold metals, as a proud owner of almost the whole range of Real Technique brushes, I have a real urge to try these in particular the contour brush.

3. You can never have too much neutral eye shadows and this little palette looks like the perfect combination of everyday shadows.

4. I love a good bubble bath, and when it comes to a good relaxing bubble bath you don't get better than a Lush bubble bar and this little heart from the Valentines collection is so cute.

5. I definitely don't need another bag, but can you ever have too many? Yes Emma you can....still have a bad feeling I will sporting this tan satchel bag pretty soon. Stay tuned.

6. Thanks to every YouTuber including this little 'Dip Brow' pot from Anastasia Beverly Hills I have now convinced myself I need this product to help me on my never ending quest to perfect my brows, I promise as soon as I successfully make them look perfectly symmetrical  I shall let you know.

7. Thanks to Kylie Jenner we all want dark lips and Velvet teddy lipstick by Mac is currently top of my list to help me achieve this natural dark lip.

8. Finally we come to Nar's radiant creamy concealer, this is down to one of my favourite youtubers, Nicole Guerriero, she uses this concealer along with Mac light boost to highlight under the eyes. As a girl who loves to highlight and contour ala Kimmy K I would love to try this little product and see if it lives up to the hype.

So thats it from me tonight, I hope you have enjoyed this little wish list. I shall be back soon with more ramblings.

Mothers Day Gift guide

Mothers Day Gift guide







Hello beauties, I hope your all having a good week. I foolishly tripped over my own ankle on Monday. I ended up going to hospital and after 4 hours I left with an egg shaped looking lump on my ankle, some beautiful crutches and strict instructions to rest. Well I am not one for resting, on day one I was so bored I was pretending my crutch was a sword (yes I am a very grown up 26 year old) and knocked everything off my coffee table. I decided to spend the rest of the week reading my old Harry Potter books to keep myself out of trouble. 

Anyway enough about me and my clumsyness, today I wanted to share with you my mothers day gift guide. Mothering Sunday is March 30th so you still have a few weeks to whip up something special for your Mum, but in case your really stuck for ideas I thought I would give you some inspiration.


I have based this on my gifts I know my own mummy would love.

1. Elizabeth Arden 8 hour cream. I have always found with gifts this is a safe option nearly women has heard of 8 hour cream or has tried this cult products. So I have always found this has gone down well. 


2. Yankee candle. I definitely inherited my candle burning obsession from my mum, there is always a candle burning at her house and I know she is a fan of Yankee candles so she would love another to add to her collection I am sure. 


3. Clinque. My mum is obsessed with Clinque, her whole extensive make up collection is primarily clinque, I first fell in love with Clinque even better foundation after, 'ahem' borrowing hers. So I would imagine any kind of set will go down well. 


4. Lush, Lush always bring out a lovely spring collection with some Mother's day inspired gift. My mum loves a good bath and relax, although she cant stand the smell of Lush shops, its all just too much for her. She has always enjoyed the bits and pieces I have picked up for her.


5. This Tiffany's inspired mug is so cute. I hope one day I can afford to buy my mum something from Tiffany's seeing as she bought me my first ever gift in the little mint green box for my 21st. For now though I know this mug would make her giggle.


6. My mum loves baking (I am starting to think I am a lot more like my mum then I thought). So any kind of baking or recipe book will be much appreciated, seeing as she is always whipping something up in the kitchen. I have just been nibbling on some very yummy poppy seed muffins actually she made me as get well soon present. 


7. I don't know about yours, but my mummy is obsessed with loose tea, and well just any kind of tea in general and Harrods is one of her favorite places in London so I know she would love this.


8. Flowers, you cant go wrong with fresh flowers.


9. Along the same theme, I don't think you can really go wrong with a good box of chocolates either. My mum only likes dark chocolate, she says milk is too sweet...hmm maybe we aren't that similar. 


10. Finally Perfume, my mum is a fan of Jo Malone...she has good taste.


So there you have it my Mothers day gift guide. I am not 100% what I am getting my mummy yet. I am taking my Mum and Granny for Sunday dinner at my wedding venue which they are both very excited about, so I am really looking forward to that. 


Thanks for reading lovlies and what ever gifts you buy or what ever you do on Mother's day have a lovely day.
