TTN Reviews: E1 Candles

Who doesn't love a scented candle, okay so maybe the appreciation levels are lowered if the wrong scent it chosen but since living in my own space for 4 years I am a scented candle convert.

Monthly Favourites: July 2014

Another manic, sun filled month has whizzed by and my top 10 things that have kept me smiling this month are...

Summer 2014 Wedding Guest Outfit

Weddings. I love them. Admittedly so far planning my own wedding hasn't really got off the ground, who would have thought that a Hog Roast with glorified tent and band would set you back well over £10k? Not me! Why can't Monopoly Money be legal tender? Le Sigh...

TTN Visits: Cheeky Parlour, Shoreditch E2

With a beach holiday the next day, and in need of a little 'me' time I treated myself to a Pedicure at Cheeky Parlour last week and was very impressed with the experience..

Monthly Favourites: June 2014

In my Pre-holiday madness I didn't get a chance to post about my June favourites. Can you believe that June has come and gone? I can't get over how fast Summer is flying by.. Lets hope the Sunshine sticks around....

Pre Holiday 2014: Packing Plans's

With a beach holiday drawing closer, I have surprised myself by pretty much having everything I need to take away with me....

Monthly favourites: May 2014

I don't know about you, but I do love hearing what people have been digging during a month (watching You tubers usually but also checking out my favourite blogs). So, here are my favourite things from May 2014...

What the Postman brought 08.02.2014...

Before i head out to brave the chaos that is the Primark returns area, i thought i would show you all what Mr Postman brought me this morning....

Bargains & Beauty Try-Out's

I'm not going to lie, my 'must start saving' goal isn't really happening. Today I popped out to merely browse and pick up some essentials from Boot's- and 2 hours later I returned with a little more than just essentials!

Benefit 'Whole lotta lovin' kit

As a little treat to myself, every 4 weeks I do love getting my brows 'did' at my local Benefit boutique. For under £20 I get my brows tinted (a must when I have recently had my hair coloured), Plucked and Waxed! The Benefit girls in my local are also so friendly which just adds to the whole experience.

Today's trip to Stratford Westfields ...

I am sitting here sipping on a delicious Peppermint tea (with honey), feeling that kind of  frazzled feeling that you can only achieve if you have seriously shopped. I decided that today was the day that  i would spend a little of my Christmas & Birthday money, and attempt to bag myself a few bargains. 

Must-have Make up kits!

Anyone that knows me will know that I have become a slight Tanya Burr addict. I think she is great. After watching a You Tube tutorial of hers I feel I could go out, buy the products she recommends and use them properly (as opposed to buying a make up item then being sat at home staring at it like 'what the hell to do i do now?')

I never usually ask for make up items but this year i have already put two items on my list....

The Bronze of Champions make up kit, Benefit £26.50

I would totally use this Benefit make up kit- instructions on what to do and products that I will enjoy using... plus its in miniature and you know how much a love miniature! The mascara alone is worth getting the kit for- so good!

New Time and New Clothes.... October 2013

Finally, the clocks have gone back signalling that winter is en route and being the romantic that I am, I’m envisaging long crisp walks, goblets (GREAT word) of red wine and warm snuggle worthy jumpers. (I’m sure the reality will be my hair being blown wildly all over the place, moaning about wet feet and freezing cold hands but a nice thought any how!)

Yesterday, I paid Stratford Westfield’s a visit and had such a lovely time! It’s been a while since I’ve spent time in a shopping centre but with all my favourite high street stores next to each other plus a delicious gluten free pizza for late lunch from Pizza Express- I do wonder why I haven’t being doing this more regularly!

My  most favourite purchase from yesterday has got to be these beautiful boots from Topshop....

Must-have shoe alert!

At the moment I am off sick (picked up a standard going-into-autumn virus that's floating around) but one thing that has caught my eye, and made me feel a much better, on today's quick Internet browse....

TTN visits: London Fashion Weekend 2013

Yesterday I had, what can only be described as, a great day.

A/W 2013- The hunt for the perfect coat!

Right now, it's London Fashion Week and you can feel the buzz in the air! I am not the only person right now who is wishing that I had recieved the Wedgewood Teacup invite from Mulberry- I mean, come on, HOW cool is that!?! But, alas, my address was obviously lost in the post and so I shall be watching the show online avec a cup of tea in my very fashionable tracksuit bottoms. Ahem.

Anyway, as I still have a week to wait until I go to Somerset House for the London Fashion Weekend event (blog to follow on that, I am tres excited FYI), my thoughts have turned to what coat I will be purchasing this Autumn. My trusty black M&S coat has finally become too bobbly to wear in public after 4 years (now thats what i call great cost-per-wear!). Here are 4 coats that have caught my eye on the high street whilst browsing online:

Next £75 (Image from website)

'Cause it's like you're my mirror, my mirror staring back at me'...

As it is a Sunday, and I am feeling like the Queen of Sheba on my new mattress (best buy ever) - I thought I would blog to y'all....

It’s been a long time since i have seriously had a spend up, partly because i can’t bring myself to spend a lot of money on clothes (i know, this is most odd) and partly because the shops just haven’t been making me want to spend my money.... that was until the launch of ‘& Other Stories' on Regent street last week.

From the minds behind COS and H&M comes this, quite simply, amazing new store. In my opinion everything in this store is my kind of fashion - minimalist, contemporary, clean lines, and fabrics that you could wear casual or smart and with a dash of funky coloured items. You choose your own fashion story here and you are provided with plenty to create the foundations. WHY HAS THIS CONCEPT TAKEN SO LONG?!
