Brightening Up Our Home with Beards & Daisies

As autumn gets into full swing, it can be difficult to wake up to dark skies and grey days, so having a gorgeously bright bouquet to brighten up our home is always welcome here. My love for fresh florals is no secret and I always have flowers around our home, and quite a few houseplants too. 

For the past couple of weeks I have had a beautiful, bright, sunshine filled bouquet brighten up our dining table and everytime I come downstairs and see the gorgeous colours it fills our room with, it never fails to bring a smile to my face.

9 Months Later

Today marks Willow's 9 month 'birthday'. Another month has passed, another month of changes, developments and accomplishments. Racing to her 1st birthday with just 3 months to go, it feels like the past 9 months have sped by. 

Shop with Shoptagr + save money

I’ve always loved shopping, even more so now that we can shop from the comfort of our own homes. On a computer, tablet or phone, whatever I am doing, I am always browsing one website or another, lusting over the latest must-haves. Whether it’s a treat for myself, some new clothes for Willow, trying to find that perfect birthday present or as the festive season draws closer, picking gorgeous gifts for friends and family, I simply adore shopping. What I love even more than shopping though, is getting everything I want at a bargain price. Who wouldn’t want to shop ‘til they drop and save money at the same time? That’s where Shoptagr comes in!

Urban Decay Naked Ultimate Basics Review + Giveaway

Matte eyeshadows, a staple in any beauty collection, perfect for experimenting with colour whilst still creating subtle and everyday wearable looks. I find matte shadows quite hard to come by on the highstreet, but one brand who has really stolen the beauty crown when it comes to matte eyeshadows is Urban Decay.

With the Naked range from Urban Decay being one of the most highly coveted in the world, the range is continuing to expand and over recent years, has created palettes focused on beautiful matte eyeshadows that any beauty addict would find hard to resist. The latest Urban Decay Naked Ultimate Basics Eyeshadow Palette is a gorgeous display of matte shadows, and my favourite Naked Basics palette yet.

October Birchbox UK Review

October is in full swing and Birchbox subscribers are receiving their beauty boxes nationwide. I’ve had a love/hate relationship with subscription boxes in 2016, but the October box has impressed me so much in both design and products included, that I just had to share my box with you all.

For October Birchbox have teamed up with world renowned Astrologist, Susan Miller, incorporating subscriber star signs with beautifully designed boxes. There are four different box designs on offer this month, each corresponding to your own personal star sign with the most beautiful display of starry skies each with a different colour theme.

Lush Halloween Collection Favourites

When the summer has given us our last hot day and autumn is starting to creep in, there's one brand who is on everyone's mind when it comes to autumn/winter beauty releases. The Lush Halloween and Christmas collection is always filled with intoxicating scents and eye-catching designs, great for those cold autumn nights when all you want at the end of a long day is a hot bubble bath. 

The Halloween Collection is more modest than the Christmas Collection, featuring 16 limited edition products and fun for all ages, the collection features your traditional Halloween themes; pumpkins, ghosts, autumn leaves, monsters and magic. Here are my favourite products from the 2016 collection, including some exciting new products as well as a few favourites which have come back for another year.

Caudalie Face Masks Review

I've always been a sucker for a good face mask and having used every last drop of four Caudalie offerings, it's safe to say I've been left pretty smitten with these targeted face masks. There's four on offer, each specifically formulated to deal with specific skin concerns, and each an absolute joy to use. If you're on the hunt for a mask which pampers and treats all in one, Caudalie may just be the brand you're looking for.

Baby Halloween Costumes

October 31st will mark Willow's very first Halloween. I adore Halloween, ever since I was a little girl I have loved the excitement in the run up to the last day of October and I've always enjoyed that buzz you get when the day finally arrives. I've been looking forward to this Halloween even more than previous years, because it's something I am hoping Willow will love as much as me.
