My Make Up Wishlist

My boyfriend and I decided to book tickets for a holiday – very last minute, but also very overdue! I will be going at the end of this week and will be visiting Paris for a week and Barcelona for a week and a half – I have been to Paris a few times, but […]

A Candle Making DIY

I have become a bit of a DIY’er of late – I love finding a more cost effective, yet as amazing alternative to something I already love and in this case candles are that thing. I absolutely adore candles and have spent a considerable amount of my life earnings on splurging on some of my […]
