I can't believe that it's only one more day till December, and I start opening my advent calendar! Time has really gone so fast. I thought I'd share with you some Christmas Party inspiration from Meri Meri. I've fallen in love with their designs, and think they would make the perfect decorations for any party! It's just a shame they're on the pricier side. I'd love to get their cupcake kit though for some festive baking. 

Hey lovelies! I don't know about you but I'm a massive fan of anything Christmassy, and one of the things I have loved doing is trying out some of Lush's ridiculously tempting Christmas collection. You can probably tell as I've already reviewed their Christmas Hedgehog Bubble Bar, Butterbear Bath Bomb and Luxury Lush Pud Bath Bomb and we're not even in December yet! Dashing Santa (£2.95) has a beautiful citrus scent, and I really just love the design of this one (even if his face looks a tad evil to me...)

Hey Lovelies, as you might remember I was very lucky to be sent a couple of products to review from Amie, and today I thought I'd tell you what I thought of the Spring Clean Deep Cleansing Mask (£5.95)*. 

You've probably heard 'All About That Bass' by now, the really catchy feel-good tune by Meghan Trainor. In so many ways it's become a body positivity anthem, sending out the message that 'every inch of you is perfect' and that you shouldn't worry about your size. Meghan also tells boys that if they're not into her body type, that they should 'go ahead and move along', which I totally agree with. She also calls out Photoshop, and says that we should make it stop because it 'ain't real.' 

Hey there lovelies! I recently went to Superdrug and took advantage of their 3 for 2 deal (across all cosmetics), which will probably be the death of me because now it's just that bit more tempting to go on a makeup splurge... 

Anyways, I picked up this MUA Luxe Velvet Lip Lacquer (£3.00) in the shade Reckless. The first thing I noticed about this, is I actually really love the packaging. MUA tends to have quite dull, simple packaging but I loved that this has a frosted glass look with gold font details. 

Hey there lovelies! It's really hit me that Christmas isn't far away now (It's crazy that after this week we will be in December!). But at the same time, things have got so much busier - I hate end of year deadlines... This week I've picked yet another bunny item and featured yet another ohhdeer cushion, but still I hope you enjoy! Bonus points if you can spot my cheesy frozen joke... 

Here are some of the pieces I have been lusting after, and hope to eventually buy...

1. Embellished Collar Shirt £36.00 [x] : I love the simplicity of this shirt, with the subtle embellishment detail on the collar. Perfect for a muted festive look. 

2. Organza Embroidered Polka Dot Dress £68.00 [x] : If you saw my post on The Whitepepper recently, you are probably aware of how much I want this. I love the playfulness of the organza polka dot layer over the simple shift dress. I just wish it was a bit cheaper! 

3. Unicorn Clutch Bag Silver Hologram £40.00 [x]: I really, really want one of these clutches. They're so unique and adorable. Still can't decide whether I want this beauty in lilac or silver yet... 

4. Outline Detail Cuff £12.50 [x] : Topshop have some really cool jewellery in stock at the moment in this simple graphic style. I love how modern and futuristic it looks. 

5. Metallic Leather Wallet £25.00 [x] : A wallet is something I actually need, as I currently have nowhere to properly put my cards. I love the metallic finish on this, and the slightly cracked/faded look it has.

Hey there lovelies! I was very lucky to be sent this Morning Light Hydrating Daily Moisturiser* (£4.95) to try from Amie. For those of you who have never heard of Amie, they are brand that have created a range of natural non-aggressive products that are perfect for anyone who has sensitive skin. 

Hey there lovelies! Today's post is the first in my Christmas Gift Guide series, and I thought I'd start with arguably the hardest people to buy for, men. Here are my gift ideas: 

You know when you have one of those moments where you just love something, then you get a little bit too obsessed, and then you fangirl. Well this just happened to me over The Whiteppepper's Limited Edition party collection. 

If you have followed me for a while, then you'll have seen this brand on my blog at some point as I'm a massive fan of theirs. If you love fun, cute and quirky fashion then The Whitepepper is perfect for you. 

Hey there lovelies! I will be one of the first people to admit that I have a very lazy skin care routine, in fact I hardly have a routine at all. So I decided for once that enough is enough, I am going to challenge myself to follow a skin care routine for at least a month and see if it makes a change! 

To help me with this, I got in touch with the lovely Amber (ambermagus.ca) who with her amazing knowledge put together a skin care routine for me. Make sure you check out her blog as she has some amazing posts about skincare! 

Hey there lovelies! Hope you're having a great day. In this week's homeware/gifts picks I've snuck in two Christmas items - you can probably tell I'm counting down the days till Christmas...

Feminism is a word that I will admit was at first unattractive to me. At my old school we had a feminist club and group on Facebook. When I joined, I found that I was very scared to voice my own opinion there. It seemed that if you had an opinion that went against others, you would be shot down instantly. When boys seriously tried to joined the debate, their opinion would be discounted because they were boys, and they weren't allowed to have an opinion. Whilst I believed fully in equality, I was reluctant to call myself a feminist because I didn't feel welcomed to the debate. I felt detached from the world of feminism, even though fundamentally my beliefs were the same. 

I think my first fault is that I mistook passion for aggression. 

As Christmas approaches, Lush's Christmas products become ever more tempting and that probably explains my recent Lush splurge... This Butterbear Bath Bomb (£1.95) has a lovely vanilla smell, and is probably one of my favourite Lush scents. 

Hello lovelies! It seems like time is flying by like crazy now that we're near Christmas and I can't wait to do all my Christmas shopping. Here are my Homeware and Gifts picks for the week, I hope they give you some Christmas gift inspiration of your own! 

You might think that once you've written a post, your job is done. There's nothing more you can do except press publish, and wait for people to read it. The reality is there are so many little things you can do to get more people following you, reading your blog posts and generally feeling at home. So here are my tips to make the most of the end of your posts!

It seems weird talking about Christmas when it's only the beginning of November, but hey it's time to buy your Advent calendars!

9. Liberty Advent Calendar £149.00 [x] : I can only dream of owning this calendar, but with £420.00 it is definitely value for money (if you can afford it!).

Hey there lovelies! Today I'm going to be telling you what I think of Makeup Revolution's Run Boy Run eye shadow palette. Makeup Revolution was launched in London in March 2014 and is a super affordable line starting from £1! This is the first product I've tried from them so I was really excited (if not a bit skeptical about the quality) to try this out. 

I know everyone is saying this but how is it already November?! It seems like only yesterday everyone was planning for Halloween and now people are planning for Christmas. Leaving that aside, this week's Homeware/Gifts Picks has turned out to be quite an eclectic mix of things. Ranging from a Tetris light to this really pretty flower print. As always enjoy, and tell me your favourite thing in the comment section below! 

I was recently in Norwich over the weekend, and happened to come across a Lush - usually I have to go out of my way to get to one. Inside, I noticed this cute little 'The Christmas Hedgehog' (£3.25) which I've never seen before (I think it's a new Lush product?) and just had to get one.
