WHAT I HAVE BEEN LOVING

Happy Friday!

Me again – It’s kinda fun not knowing when I’m going to ever post again isn’t it? (I’m rolling my eyes here in case you couldn’t tell)

In my last catch up I told myself that I’d make May a happy one, stay positive and do all the things that make 8-5 at work and home life bearable. It’s been bloody toughhhh but actually despite a few bad days, I’ve stayed pretty happy, focused on me and decided not to worry. Life has a habit of doing what it wants anyway.

In the interest of staying positive, I thought that instead of ranting about what I’ve been up to, I’d share what I have been loving. It’s a mixed bunch so bear with me.

Nakd Peanut Delight

I am a big fan of Nakd bars annyyyday of the week but these are a game changer. Think a Snickers bar without the guilt. Perfect with a cuppa when the 4pm slump makes you wanna crawl under your desk.

Suits

In the spirit of the Royal Wedding (or in my case anyway) Charlie and I have picked up where we left Suits two years ago and I’m so excited that it’s back in my life. We’ve started from Season 5 but it feels like we never left ❤

Sims on mobile

Don’t judge but there’s only so much online window shopping I can do without getting depressed so Sims has made a comeback and I am maybe too obsessed with making my Sim ‘Woo-hoo’. I’m 25 I promise.

Marc Jacobs, Decadence

My dad jetted off on holiday at the beginning of the year and brought me back Marc Jacobs, Decadence and I can’t cope with how good and how summary. Think, watermelon in a bottle*

*It might not actually have notes of watermelon but that’s what I’m getting alright.

Butter Mint Twining’s tea

Since trying the peppermint ultra slimming diet tea in Uni, I have forever been haunted by mint flavoured tea. Maybe I have just matured and forgotten the distant memories of the extreme antioxidant but I’m cured (thank god) and I am loving Twinning’s new Butter mint tea. It’s peppermint with vanilla and toffee and it’s pretty beaut for an after lunch tea.

Pink Gin

On a different spectrum to a cuppa, I have also been obsessed with Pink Gin, specifically Rhubarb and Ginger by Edinburgh. Doesn’t need an explanation – just v. good.

Sliders from Primark

Who doesn’t love a good slider and who doesn’t love a £5 good slider, that’s what I wanna know?! I have lived in mine and although the rough start with the painful blisters, we’ve now learned to love each other.

‘Life’s A Peach’ Blush from L’Oréal

A couple of months ago, I revamped a few of my high street make up staples and this made the cut. Not only does it smell like peaches and makes me happy with every use, it’s also a lush colour and perfect for Spring days (But in large it’s mainly about the good smell…)

Collection Glam Crystals Liquid Eye shadow

I’ll be honest, I was skeptical about a metallic liquid eye shadow – something I have never been brave enough to try but I actually love this. Super pigmented, nice and cheap and lasts all day. Winner.
