Fashion/Home/Beauty #3

1//2//3//4//5//6

Happy Monday lovelies!

What a strange few days it has been! I've just had very odd feelings toward the end of the week and I'm pretty glad to be starting fresh. I dunno. Women. ;)

I am in desperate need of those H&M Trousers. Perhaps two pairs. They look insanely comfortable but totally able to dress up or down. Staple piece. Hells yeah!

LOOK! Deliciously cheesy home wares to feast upon! 

As for the beard oil, obviously not for me, but the Mr is growing a beard and y'know, beard oil... can't hurt to spoil the man rotten, it is his birthday soon!

Anyway, have an awesome week! I've been a bit cheeky over the weekend with a few too many tipples so I'll be getting back on track this week. 

Peace!

Gift Guide 2012 - Vol 2 - The Mother

I am back again with another gift guide for Christmas. This time it's for our mothers. The ladies that give us life, teach important life lessons and have a penchant for gin and tonics... ;)

1. Anna Sheffield Gold Plated Sacred Geometric Button Earrings - £75. If you're perhaps looking to splurge a little on your mother this year, then why not these geometric earring studs? Classic geometry go together like cheese and biscuits, I say. 

2. Diptyque Jasmine Scented Candle - 190g - £38. Personally speaking, my mother lived in Spain for twenty years of her life and that being said - adores the scent of jasmine and honeysuckle which reminds her of her friends gardens and what not. Diptyque candles are notorious for their beautiful scents and cute labels to boot. 

3. Initial Coin Purse - £14. My mother, bless her, like yours probably, keeps all of her change. Doesn't put it in a money bank at home but keeps it in her purse like the rest of her gold coins and crisp notes. I'll be buying her this with her initial on so she can keep it seperate and look cute at the same time. 

4 No7 Pamper and Polish kit - £20. Any woman appreciates a decent mani/pedi so why not buy this sweet set from Boots and then treat your mother and do it for her. 

5. Illustrated British Garden Bird Key Ring - £8.50. Not to add any more to my mothers bulging keys, but this little guy is too cute to pass up! 

Peace!

october wishes - part four - interiors...




Eventually my arrangements in the house are going to change. The Mr and I are swapping the big room for a 'little bedroom' - which will literally be bed, bedside cabinet and an ottoman - and there will still be plenty of room in there to move around.

Meanwhile my current bedroom, which is much larger will almost become like a dressing room/lounge/study. 

It won't be the most glamorous of rooms - having drawn out the plans a billion times and still my inner interior designer weeps at them, but it will be functional and roomy until we can afford our own place.

That being said I've recently indulged in some new bedding, king size duvets to be precise, because a certain someone hogs the covers...

So now I'm just eyeing all the pretty bedlinen (I have a preference for white bedding,) everyone has on offer at the moment!

...and cute little alarm clocks!

Peace!
