Busy Bee...

Good morning my loves!

As I said last week, I have been such a little busy bee and have not been able to work on my beloved blog! To assure you that I’m not telling porky pies, below are some pics of the past week and a half…

 

I've been trying to wind down before I go to sleep and a candle does just the trick, along with my Bath and Body Works Pillow spray in lavender and vanilla : )

 

 

I saw this on Facebook and thought it was bloomin hilarious! Its what a cat looks like from underneath a glass coffee table!

 

 

I have been experimenting with a lot of make-up looks recently (tutorials to follow) and been loving using the MUA matte palette.

 

 

I used Chanel in 'misty soft' on my eyes here 8-)

 

 

I bought these beautiful flowers out of Morrisons for a couple of quid! They remind me of the flowers in the garden in the film 'Coraline' (one of my faves)!

 

 

I have been eating and drinking so much crap, but its soooooo good! We got a Chinese last week - I got duck pancakes, mini spring rolls and salt & chilli chips. Guy made Blackberry Fizz cocktails to go along with our dinner : ) If you would like the recipe for Blackberry Fizz, let me know in the comments below...

 

 

I have been spending so much on ebay recently...my bad! I got this Abercrombie & Fitch cardy for £12!

 

 

When Guy go his wages, he made us steak for dinner, yum! We had it with a large mushroom cooked in garlic butter, chips and whiskey sauce. We bought a deep fat fryer so we could have chips the naughty way ;)

 

 

When I downloaded ios7 I had to delete all my apps including Snapchat! Once I remembered to re-download it, I had a lot of fun sending my pals crazy snaps!

 

 

I have been absolutely loving the weather. I'm one of those people who love the rain and colder weather. Don't get me wrong, I'm crazy about Summer, but if I had to be a season (sounds weird) I would deffinitley be Autumn : )

 

 

Although we've been having take-aways constantly, I always try and eat healthy in work. This is a pic of my usual daily salad.

 

 

Love a bit of vino so I do ;)

 

 

SELFIE!

 

 

Oft, now this was AMAZING! We got this Indian tapas mixture from our regular Indian restaurant because we had never tried it and it was honestly the best take-away I have ever had! Absolutely amazing!

 

 

Lilly is being as crazy as ever, she just loves climbing up my legs...especially when I've only got my jammie shorts on! :(

 

 

More work lunch pics : )

 

 

Chanel mascara freebie that I got with my recent Chanel purchases! It is so amazing I am going to have to buy it in full-size!

 

 

The flight down to London for my exam was lovely :)

 

 

But I missed this gorgeous girl though!

 

 

Me & my other half attended an engagement party on Saturday. It was loads of fun and was a nice way to relax a bit before my big exam!

 

 

What have you guys been up to?? Let me know in the comments below.

Ps. I have finally reached 50 followers!!! Now I just need to pic a winner and post their goodies!
