I've had a very chilled week this week, and I've really enjoyed it! I've finished my 5 week stint of working 6 days a week so relaxing has been much needed and very much appreciated! I've been spending time planning blog posts so look out for those!

I hope you've all enjoyed your week.

This week has been an even better week than normal because my best friends came back from uni! It's so nice to see them in person and not just over Skype. We went for coffee and watched Harry Potter, went to the pub and just spent time together which was nice.

 I hope you've all had a good week!



“There is beauty, heartbreaking beauty, everywhere.” - Edward Abbey

I love this quote. The other evening I went to some fields with my friend and it hit me how beautiful the world is if you take a minute to look, heartbreaking beauty is everywhere. Although this quote can be interpreted in many different ways, I like to imagine it referring to the natural beauty that's around us if we really look. We all lead such busy lives, always running from one place to another, never having time to stop and appreciate what's around us. 

If you do have a chance to take a break for 5 minutes just look around you and admire the natural beauty around you, whether it be the beauty of your partner, a stranger on the bus, the flowers, the sound of the birds singing or simply a smile from a strange, appreciate what's around you because it really does brighten your day. 
Grey Floral Vintage Ring  // Red Enamel Ring

This week has just been 'one of those' weeks, so when I saw Argento were having their summer sale on Pandora products I jumped at the chance to buy a ring or two and treat myself. As you'll probably know (because I keep mentioning it, sorry!) I've been working a lot since I've finished uni, we're talking 6 days a week and that's a shock to the system for me. I'm used to having a few hours of lectures a day and then going back to bed, but working this much got on top of me a little so I decided to treat myself.

These rings are the ones that caught my eye and even though they're not your typical Pandora ring (this is the one I'm talking about) I still think they're beautiful and I wanted to share them with you! 

Have you got any Pandora rings or jewellery yourself?

I'm sorry that this post has gone up really late but I got caught up in OITNB and I've finally finished season 2 and wow, I just recommend everyone to watch Orange Is The New Black if you haven't already! 

Anyway, this week has involved a lot of time at work but the weather has been beautiful for the most part. I took this photo at 7am, who knew 7am on a Monday morning could look so pretty?! I certainly didn't until this week.

I hope you've all had a good week!

This week has been fairly uneventful if I'm honest. I've worked 5 days and become obsessed with Netflix again, which I blogged about (read here). However, I have started drinking cold coffee again, which is one of my favourite things about summer. You can see how I made it by clicking here and seeing a post I made last year, it's so simple and tastes delicious.

What have you been up to this week?

Recently I've been loving Netflix more than usual and I've managed to get myself caught up in a few shows and I thought I'd share those with you. If you haven't already got a Netflix account you can sign up now and get a months free trial too! 

 1| Orange Is The New Black

 "From the creator of “Weeds” comes a heartbreaking and hilarious original series set in a women’s prison. Piper Chapman’s wild past comes back to haunt her, resulting in her arrest and detention in a federal penitentiary. To pay her debt to society, Piper trades her comfortable New York life for an orange prison jumpsuit and finds unexpected conflict and camaraderie amidst an eccentric group of inmates."

 I'm sure you've all heard of OITNB but if you haven't, where have you been?! Season 2 came out yesterday and I'm currently working my way through that and wow, I love it even more than season 1! I managed to watch all of season 1 in 26 hours so as you can see I was slightly obsessed. 

 2| Nurse Jackie

 "Edie Falco stars as a flawed but dedicated ER nurse who works in a New York City hospital and relies on pain meds to get her through exhausting days."

 This is another series that I got hooked on very quickly and I'm so happy to see that Netflix have recently added new episodes. I love medical dramas so for me, this is the perfect watch. 

 3| Ugly Betty

 "Experience the glamour -- and nasty backbiting -- of the fashion biz through the eyes of a plain Jane who's landed a job at Mode magazine."

 Once again I'm sure everyone has heard or watched Ugly Betty but when it was broadcasted on TV I was never committed to watching it, so I'm re-watching the first season and making my way onto the second.
What series would you recommend I watch?


NB: To clarify, I am not affiliated with Netflix, nor was I asked to write a post for them or including their website. I'm just a university student who has found many ways to procrastinate and avoid assignments!

This week has been busy to say the least! It was my first week back at work and I've worked 5 days, been to a family reunion (which was lovely) and went to Salcey Forest with my friend which was so peaceful and calming. I've not really had a minute to sit down so I plan to catch up on blogs this evening!

How has your week been?



I'm finally home from uni for the summer and this weekend it was a bank holiday which is always nice. I went to the pub with a couple of friends last night but today the weather was horrible - typical English weather! However, I'm now sat in bed all cosy watching Made In Chelsea which is intense as always! 

What have you done this bank holiday weekend?

This week may have been really stressful but me and my friends had a bbq in the park on Sunday followed by drinks on a roof top terrace and it was pretty much a perfect day! I also had my final exam for this year on Wednesday so I'm going home for summer!
Batiste Dry Shampoo // Aussie Miracle Moist Conditioner
W7 Powder Blush (Rose) // W7 Flirty Eyes Mascara

A couple of days ago my Mum picked me up a couple of items from B&M and I thought I'd share them with you. The only product I've tried is the Batiste dry shampoo, but I'm excited to try everything else and I'll have reviews on their way very soon!

What items have you bought this month?



Today was a lovely Spring day and I thought I'd share a couple of photos with you all. I've been absolutely loving this weather, it's just a shame I've had to spend my time revising!

edit: just as I've been typing this a storm has started and now it's tipping it down and there's thunder and lightening. Oh the joys of English weather!

Being home and surrounded by the beautiful countryside has been lovely these past couple of weeks and I have ended up slacking on my posts (sorry!). Watching the sunset over the fields was so peaceful, as well as the added bonus of listening to Ben Howard songs. 

I love browsing online before going into an actual shop because this way I know what to look out for whilst shopping and it also saves me time and stress. Recently I've been loving a lot of clothing items on the H&M website and a few home bits too so I thought I'd share them with you.

I know there's quite a few black items in here even though it's coming up to Spring, but black is my comfort zone and I feel you can never go wrong when you wear something black. 

Have you got your eye on any clothes at the moment?


*All photos are from the H&M website and do not belong to me. 

I'm now finally home from Uni for Easter and I am so happy to be back! I have a lot of posts planned and since I have my DSLR back with me here the quality of photos will be better, yay!

 As much as I love uni, it's nice to be home and have home comforts. 
Have you got anything planned for this weekend?
Collection Deluxe Lipstick - £3.99 // 17 Quicker Slicker Colour Polish - £2.99

Boots had a 3 for 2 offer on the other week and I obviously couldn't resist. All of these are new products for me and I'm glad I bought all of them. The Deluxe Lipsticks are in the shades Talullah and Prohibition. The 17 Quicker Slicker Colour Polish is in the shade Navy Glint and it's absolutely gorgeous.

Tulullah // Prohibition

So far I've been really enjoying using these lipsticks and I'll be doing a full review soon but I thought most people enjoy a haul post now and then don't they?! (or at least I do!)

Have you bought any new products recently?

This week I actually had the motivation to tidy my room (well sort of) for once and I feel so much better now I've done that. It's so close to Easter now and I can't wait to go home home, if you're at uni you'll know how much you love being at uni but nothing beats being at your real home.

I hope you've all had a wonderful week.

I'm sure you've all had those weeks when you've so exhausted that you just need to ignore your workload and everything else going on and just snuggle up in bed with hot chocolate. Well this was one of those weeks!

I hope you've all had a good week!

As usual this week has been very busy with assignments being set and in general I've only been getting through the days with the help of coffee. Lack of sleep is really getting to me so I am so grateful for coffee, even if most of my money daily goes to Starbucks whilst I'm at uni!

How has your week been?

This week hasn't been the best week since I managed to drop my iPhone down the toilet and even though it was in a bag of rice for 6 days it still has water damage so I'm stuck using my phone from 7 years ago (good old Nokias!). Anyway, a photo of my Dominos was the last photo I managed to take on my iPhone haha! 

How has your week been?

p.s. I have a beauty post coming soon I promise!
