Sofa Cushion Pillow Case / Autumn Leaf Cushion Cover / Yankee Candle / Autumn Owl Trio Oven Glove / Folklore Four Seasons Bowl Set / Knitted Fluffy Boot Slippers / Laurel Burch Shoulder Tote / Autumnal Orange Hanging Fabric Fox Christmas Tree Decorations / Apple Roses / I am obsessed with decorating our flat at the moment and even though I've already bought a couple of new cushion cases, I've fallen in love with these autumn-themed ones. Yellow, orange and gold colours really look beautiful at this time of year. I also start burning candles more often when it gets a bit darker outside, so a couple of new Yankee candles are definitely something I need to pick up soon.  Folklore Four Seasons Bowls and an Owl Oven Glove would be such a lovely addition to my kitchen! I recently discovered Folklore kitchenware and I am a huge fan. The Hanging Fabric Fox decorations are advertised more as Christmas Tree decorations but I think they would look super cute anywhere around t...

The temperature doesn't often go over 21 degrees here in Manchester but I am totally ready for Summer! I was in the mood for window shopping yesterday and found many lovely items for summer, so I've put together a wish list to show off some of my favourites. At the moment I am loving long, flowy skirts, so this H&M Long satin skirt would be perfect for visiting a market or for walks on the beach. I also found these Maude style RAEN sunglasses which go well with the skirt pattern. Their Lunar Quartz collection is simply eyecatching. RAEN sunglasses have been my secret obsession for a while now and I am constantly stalking their Instagram page. I already have one good pair of RayBan sunglasses, so I'm not sure if I want to spend £100 on another pair. There are never enough tops in my closet and I want to get something light and summery for when it is warmer. I've been really pleased with the shirts and tops I've ordered from Choies so far, I am t...

One of my recent discoveries is Zest Beauty . They are a UK store who offer professional beauty products online at affordable prices. The prices I've found so far to be much cheaper than on the high street and delivery is free. I love being lazy sometimes and shopping online! I can take my time, make sure that I am buying the right product, pay and just wait a couple of days before my order is with me. I looked around their website and created a little collage. This is my current Zest Beauty wish list. I have heard so many good things about Australian Bodycare and I'd love to try their Cleansing Face Mask . I love creamy clay masks and they work well on my combination skin.  My shower routine has been quite boring lately. I haven't added anything new to my body wash collection and as I love Burt's Bees so much, I am looking forward to trying their Naturally Nourishing Milk & Shea Butter Body Wash . After our cold and windy winter I feel like I'm g...

I have been loving the idea of having a 60's style home. We are renting at the moment so obviously we can't do much with our flat but it doesn't stop me from dreaming and thinking about our own place. I was looking at different styles of home decor and came across so much beautiful furniture. I like the combination of grey, green and orange in a living room - these colours instantly give me a countrysidey feeling.  I picked out a drawer and a few 'Danish' style couches, a couple of pillows (which I like so much) and a bonsai tree. I love plants but I would prefer something cute and small, rather than big palmy-type plants. The whole set has a vintage vibe but is still quite modern and minimalistic.  I'm a clean freak. I don't like wearing shoes inside, I can't stand dusty furniture, I love clean floors and I change my bedding every two weeks (sometimes even more often). This style of furniture (long legs, wide open space underneath) w...

I picked out a few of my favourite sandals for spring/summer.   1. Sperry Top-Sider Summerlin Thong Sandal - I like this golden metallic look. I think these sandals would go well with formal clothes and could also be paired with a cute summer dress for a more casual look. 2.  Renvy Dacey Tribal Mini Sliver Wedge Sandal - Beautiful pink and green leather sandals from Renvy. I like their slightly retro style and braided details. Very chic look! 3.  Pikolinos Alcudia Buckled Sandals in Multicolor - I adore Pikolinos, such an amazing style - I prefer a basic look when it comes to sandals.  4.  Sam Edelman Galvin Leather Gladiator Sandals - I recently bought myself a similar pair of Sam Edelman gladiator shoes, but I kind of like these too. Beads and little gem stones on sandals are quite cute. 5. Kurt Geiger London Lace Metallic Sandals - I am a bit obsessed with shoes with a metallic look and I really like this wide/thick ankle strap with buckle...
