Hen Party | OOTD

What do you wear to a hen party where you don't know what your doing? Good question & I had no idea too. It's a good job my sister steered me in the direction of wearing something "nice" for the evening & this was what I came up with.

Flower Power | Guest Post

It's hard to believe we first met Charlie & Stephen in March 2014 at a local wedding fair. During these last 18 months with a few chats, a couple of meet ups & plenty of emails, especially whilst Stephen was living & working in the USA, we came together with a floral plan for Sunday 27^th September 2015.

So this week here at Flowers on Main Street we've ordered & inspected the flowers from our dedicated suppliers. To ensure blooms are at their optimum beauty for Sunday we will soon be busy with conditioning each stem & bud. Designs will carefully be put together, each placement of bud & bloom adjusted until it's in just the right position & a few hours before the ceremony on Sunday the final finishing touches will be added.

So a sneak floral background for Charlie's blog...

Soap & Glory Mother Pucker Lipgloss | Review

I've never tried the 'Mother Pucker' lip gloss before but as soon as I saw this gorgeous shade, I just had to buy it! They have also brought out another 6 shades which I can't wait to give a try.

Hen Party | Bridal

I can't believe that my hen party has been & gone. Time is flying by & I keep reminding myself to remember these last moments before the wedding.

Sophisticated Shirts | OOTD

You'll have noticed this beauty featured on my August Favourites this month & it just so happened that I also wore it for my birthday & conveniently took some snaps!

August Favourites

Somehow, I managed to miss out a July favourites... not sure how I did that but it happened. Oh well, onto the next.
1. iPhone 6

Sad I know. But since I got my new phone, I have been loving it. I'm not usually too fussed with phones but everything about it is better & it's sleek & simple.

Rose Gold Dreams

I've been wanting, wishing & wish listing over this beauty for a while & I've finally got my hands on one...
The Daniel Wellington Classic St Mawes
I've been searching for that perfect mix of classic, simple & a little different & found it whilst doing the usual mass internet shopping. We all do it right?!

Review | Kiehl's Midnight Recovery Concentrate

This is a product that I have had for over a year now but for some reason, haven't yet blogged about! I've posted a review on the eye cream which matches this beauty of a product which you'll find here but I felt was about time I reviewed the original.

Birthday Blues

It's only been a few days since my birthday but I've already got the birthday blues! I genuinely love birthdays, whether it's mine or someone else's, I get just as excited. It's not even about the presents (I mean I do love presents as much as the next person) I just love celebrating & looking forward to something!

The Treat Kitchen | Review

This week, I was lucky enough to receive a delicious looking parcel in the form of sweets. Now, if there's one thing I like to review, it's definitely food. All kinds. So this was right up my street!

A Birthday Giveaway

Happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me...

Birthday Wish List

It's ma birthday, it's ma birthday, I'm gonna party like it's ma birthday... well, it will be on Saturday!
My gosh I'm excited, I'm such a child when it comes to birthday's & Christmas but who isn't?! The other day, I found myself on Polyvore & happened to create a little wish list... Oops!

Ps. keep your eyes peeled for a birthday giveaway this Friday!
Love, xx

The Countdown

So it's officially the countdown to the wedding... We've got five weeks to go & I know it's going to fly by. Who'd have thought that when we got engaged almost 19 months ago that we'd finally get to this point. It felt like a lifetime away & that it would never come around.

These last few weeks have flown by. Work is busy, we're renovating a house & the wedding is always there in the background & I wanted to write a post now before all the craziness starts as I know I won't have chance to soon.

OOTD | Exploring Bath

Continuing my love of denim, I opted for these comfy beauties for strolling round the streets of Bath. They're the perfect accompaniment whether it be sunny or cloudy. Paired with some Ray Bans & my super soft Paul Smith top, I was all set to go.

Something Special

A few weeks back, I received an email from a company called Invaluable asking if I'd be willing to share my story on my most prized jewellery. Usually, I'd file this kind of thing away & forget about it but for some reason it really got me thinking.
I'm not your typical girl who can't leave the house without any jewellery on. It's the last thing I think about & quite often tend to forget. Since I've been engaged, I've gotten even worse & sometimes I can go for months upon end without even opening my jewellery box.
Having said that, there is definitely one piece in there which stands out to me & really means a lot. 

Beautiful Bath | Travel

Last weekend, it was my fiancé's birthday. He'd asked a while ago to go away for the weekend somewhere as a surprise. So... I took to google to look for something special for him & stumbled upon Bath. I'd never been before but had heard so many good things about it.

On the morning of his birthday, we took to the road & began the surprise journey down to Bath. Unfortunately, all didn't go to plan as we got stuck in lots of traffic & he had to help direct but never mind! I tried my best.

OOTD | Blues, Bay Trees & Bath

You may have noticed a slight theme with my outfit posts... They're often blue, comfy & involve a pair of jeans.

The last two seem to be my "go to" when I'm deciding what to wear. I love jeans. You can really dress them up or down & they're perfect for so many occasions. Plus, they go with pretty much everything & last forever & there's nothing more important than being comfy. However, remember not to compromise style over comfort.

Travel | Torrevieja

Spain is one of those places that I always tend to visit when I'm looking for a relaxing but inexpensive holiday. It has everything to offer; sunshine, sea & great food.

A few weeks back, I took a week's break with my girl friends to Torrevieja in the South of Spain & my goodness did I do nothing but relax!

Review | Seventeen Eye Eye Shadow

Seventeen isn't a brand that I would usually pick up in the shops. I don't think I even used any of their products when I was younger. For some reason, I find that Seventeen is meant to be for younger girls who are first experiencing makeup but after finding this beauty, they're definitely trying to change this perception.

OOTD | Dungaree Styling

Who knew that dungarees would come back around? I think this is maybe the 2nd or 3rd time this has happened since the 90's & I'm loving it.
