Payday Wishlist: Animal Print Obsession



1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5

Another payday, Another month of window shopping and It will not come as a surprise to anyone who know's me, especially the one's who have lived with me, That I'm obsessed with leopard print this month which honestly isn't really much of a change from the norm. I mean I wouldn't ever wallpaper my house with it or wear it head to toe, that's way too much for me but when it comes to accessories for me or my room, I would happily buy them all. So it suits me just fine that everyone else has cottoned on and there's so much of it around this season.

Taking a Leap of Faith back to the girl I used to be.



My ideas for this little blog may change on a day to day, hour to hour basis but the one thing that has remained constant is that I wanted to include more personal post's. Slightly like journal entries but not so personal I feel that I have nothing for myself and honestly, more than a little rambling so if your willing to read through them then bless you and I hope they help you as they have helped me.

I've written a few up so far and honestly the whole process has been more cathartic than I ever thought it could be so whether this post is read by many or none, I'm glad it's out there. So, I may or may not have been banging on about the fact I'm moving to Paris in a week's time but as my departure date becomes closer and closer I'm starting to look at so many aspects of my life and realise just how much has changed this year. Not just in my outer life but with who I am as a person and it could not be more welcome.

On my Travels : A Little Trip to Paris


Seeing as for the next few months of my life, I'll be living just outside Paris and spending Christmas living the Disneyland dream, I thought I'd share a few pictures from my trip to the city with Mama C last year. I'm excited to move but understandably a bit apprehensive but looking at these photo's and the one's from my multiple trips to Disney as a kid has been helping me to stay on the right side of excited (until I'm trying to fit all my stuff into a suitcase and then I'll be stressing again because I don't travel light at the best of times.)

Products Worth their Price - Soliel Tan De Chanel Bronzer Review



Chanel Soleil Tan De Chanel | RRP £32.00

I normally love a good bargain and I don't necessarily agree with bloggers who tell everyone they need to buy extortionately priced products every other post but there are a few products that I will happily spend the extra money on and as I've been beauty and skin care obsessed for quite a while now there are quite a few of them. So I thought I'd start a little  series about the products that I can't live without and will continue to repurchase even if my bank account isn't as happy about it as I am. I'm kicking it off with a product I'm sure you'll all have heard of but maybe under it's original name: Chanel Bronze Universal, renamed a few years ago as the Soleil Tan De Chanel and as with the majority of Chanel products, In my humble opinion, It's worth every single penny and  I'll just tell you why:

Change is Coming.


The title is a bit ominous and I have to say I'd prefer it if you read it in a Game of Thrones style in your head. However in this case change is definitely a good thing and I'm very happy that Winter is Coming  this year (couldn't resist, It's a long wait for Season 7.) For a long time I felt a little bit stuck, like I was doing everything I could to move forward but whenever I stopped to look I was in the same position. However suddenly things have started to happen very quickly, scarily quickly and I'm embracing every opportunity.

The Payday Wishlist.

Back in the day when this blog was just a little tyke,  my first ever post was my November Wishlist, so it only seemed fitting that one of my first post's after my hiatus is another collage of a few things I would love to buy if money wasn't an option. I almost forgot how much fun it was to window shop the web and put together these posts...Until today when I managed to spend a good few hours in between actual work perusing all the usual suspects (and subsequently having palpitations after putting it all into my Asos basket and seeing the total before emptying it again, tip of the day, never do that if your watching the pennies.)

Happiness Is a Sunday




It's been a long time since I've been able to sit and write up one of these post's and I'd forgotten how lovely it is to reflect on the nicer things in life. There's been times over the past few years where it's felt like slogging away wasn't really getting me anywhere but I've come to realise that sometimes you just have to take a step sideways and reflect on all the positive things that have been happening and know progress is about staying focused and positive. So here's a few things that have been keeping me upbeat over the last few months.
