Storage idea!

I picked up this cute little jar with a heart on it from Dunelm Mill about two months ago for £6.99. At the time I didnt really have a reason for buying it but couldnt put it back so knew it would come in handy sometime! Well I have seen on many different storage idea pin boards (I am obsessed with Pinterest) cute little pots like this so I found a use for my jar! 


What do you think? Cute huh?! 

How do you store your makeup and beauty bits?

Lush

So my lovely friend Jenny from lilybirdy.blogspot.com recently got me a little treat from Lush, she got me the gorgeous rose bubble bar! I do not get on with bath bombs at all however this was gorgeous, I didnt feel like my skin was dried out like I normally do and it wasn't as sickly smelling as so many Lush products I have tried. 

I had a perfect evening of relaxing in the bath, reading my favourite author Tess Geritsen and being perved on by my little cat Ernie! Here are some pictures of the bath bomb, bath, bubbles, kitty.. Pervy kitty! Ha! 




What do you recommend from Lush?

Mothers Day & Mumma's Birthday!

So last Sunday was obviously Mothering Sunday and once again my Mums Birthday fell on that day too! So back in Jan/Feb time I booked afternoon tea for us at The Vanbrugh House Hotel down St Michael's Street in Oxford! It was an absolute bargain, £19 to pay but worth £46 I believe.

 It was absolutely adorable, when we arrived we were warmly welcomed my the lovely ladies who showed us to our seats. They then came out with a red rose and a huge slab of toffee cake for my Mum as we mentioned it was her Birthday! We then had a gigantic glass of processco each and browsed the Tea menu. I let Mum pick as I still dont really drink hot drinks... However tried both teas and was pleasantly surprised! After sipping our glasses of prosseco for a little while out came a adorable cake tier stand! We had a mixture of cute little sarnies, scones cream & Jam, and different cakes to feast on! The best part for me was the shot glass of chocolate mousse with Strawberries! 


After we had quite literally stuffed ourselves.. We left so much too!! We had a mooch around Oxford for a few hours and spent most of our time enjoying each others company and laughing. I wanted to share this with you as it was just such a perfect day and I want to be able to look back and remember it! 


This weekend has been absolutely lovely too, I have the best friends and family!

Have a great day, 

Emily
