Returning to School after Six Months At Home

Returning to School after Six Months At Home

September 3, 2020

Ad - we received a Smiggle gift card to purchase back to school stationary in exchange for this feature. Like almost every other parent with school age children I am facing the return to school with my daughter next week. She finished her classroom learning in March after a school trip with friends and now returns taller, older and a bit more anxious. Smiggle have helped make this transition a little easier by allowing us to purchase some back to school supplies. They have a lovely ... Read more

Independent Wines – Pinot Noir

Independent Wines – Pinot Noir

September 2, 2020

Ad - I received a bottle of Pinot Noir (the wine featured) from Independent Wines to taste and review. All opinions are my own. Do you have a favourite wine? I think everyone has a preference for a certain grape or country of origin. I very much enjoy Italian Reds so when Independent Wines offered a chance to taste and review I was exicited. One selected was the Pinot Noir Rolhüt 2018 Adam's favourite is Pinot Noir and I have to admit I admire the usual richness of this red, ... Read more

Awesome Autumnal Home Styling Tips For Cosy Vibes

Awesome Autumnal Home Styling Tips For Cosy Vibes

August 20, 2020

This is a collaborative post Autumn is creeping closer with the end of August finally in sight and the 1st of September looming around the corner. I know that early September can still bring the last rays of sunshine but after the Autumn equionox on 21st the days will get rapidly shorter and everything we love about Fall will be well and truly here. I love Autumn, it's the ultimate cosy season with the warm colour tones and the return of school. Usually, I'd be a lot more excited ... Read more

A Darker Shade of Magic: Illumicrate Collections

A Darker Shade of Magic: Illumicrate Collections

August 19, 2020

I am new to the works of VE Schwab this year and have only read two of her books so far but I have loved them both and can see why these books are favourited by so many people. I first read A Darker Shade of Magic earlier in the year and I am currently reading A Gathering of Shadows which is my 52nd book of the year - completing my reading challenge for 2020. Honestly, book boxes have really helped with my reading as well as being more active on bookstagram. Also my youtube is picking ... Read more

Choosing A New Bed

Choosing A New Bed

August 18, 2020

This is a collaborative post. For the last maybe year or so our bed has become more and more broken. Slats have slipped out and snapped. It's gotten so bad recently that Adam is mostly sleeping on the broken sofa in the living room and I have a pile of various things under the bed trying to support the mattress. In fact we are considering just getting rid of the frame altogether and sleeping on the mattress on the floor for the time being. We wanted to get one and then lockdown ... Read more

Come share a few things with me by the end and tell me a tale of the wicked witch 

I’ve been listening to a court of thorns and roses audio whilst playing animal crossing this weekend and I have zero regrets

I am hoping to plan out my photos this weekend (with a spreadsheet of course) as I’ve been very unorganised this month.

Today has gone so fast! I’ve written up a review Today has gone so fast! I’ve written up a review of a recent read - Legendborn - which is up on my blog now. It felt really good to write as I haven’t for ages. That got the creativity going and I made some quote graphics for my Facebook page and then got them all scheduled up to March. I really want to write more in 2021. 

Godsgrave is a book I need to read this year. The tarot cards are from @fairyloot and the Lady of Masks perfume is for #madamealchemiemonday @madamealchemie

Morning friends. Hope you’ve had/having a good weekend. Do you have a favourite bookish quote or do you have any books with quotes on the cover/spine?

This is under the cover on the @illumicrate #dosab box which is just stunning. I love the under the dust jacket art too. I first listened to this on audio and really enjoyed it but I’m saving myself for reading the whole trilogy until the other editions are here later in the year. 

Pictured with @emberstagcandles Akiva and Karou candles which both look and smell absolutely gorgeous. There are still a couple of the dosab candle boxes available but not for long! I can’t wait for mine 💙

What is your favourite scent? My ultimate combina What is your favourite scent? 
My ultimate combination is Jasmine, Orange and Tonka Bean. It is just the right amount of sweetness, fruitiness and florals and I love it. It’s actually a scent mix I made myself ages ago so I haven’t found anything with that combination since 😂 

Early morning post today because I feel like i have stuff to do and don’t want to get too tired later. Are you up to much today? 

Just casually holding one of my favourite favourite roller balls from @madamealchemie High Lady is beautifully floral and opulent - this would be date night fragrance for me or at least evening fragrance. I love it. I think it was one of my first purchases too and even though I’ve tried many others this is a go to for me time and time again.

Honestly in the days of homeschooling and just lif Honestly in the days of homeschooling and just life right now I wish my coffee was as magical as this makes it sound although it is pretty good. 

Friends I have started Legendborn tonight with a read along group and I am hooked from the first page and that hasn’t happened in ages. I’ve also almost finished Lord of Shadows on audio. 

Do you bullet journal? Can you recommend some decent pens that don’t bleed through the page too much? If you don’t, how’s your reading so far this month, have you found a new favourite?
