The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern Review
The circus arrives without warning. No announcements precede it. It is simply there, when yesterday it was not. Within the black-and-white striped canvas tents is an utterly unique experience full of breathtaking amazements. It is called Le Cirque des Rêves, and it is only open at night. But behind the scenes, a fierce competition is underway—a duel between two young magicians, Celia and Marco, who have been trained since childhood expressly for this purpose by their mercurial instructors. Unbeknownst to them, this is a game in which only one can be left standing, and the circus is but the stage for a remarkable battle of imagination and will. Despite themselves,…

#86 Lush Cupcake Fresh Face Mask Review
As I’ve mentioned already, I got a lot of Lush stuff for my birthday from both Little Miss & a few of my friends. This is probably because i’ve made it clear on so many occasions that Lush is one of my favourite brands. I mainly got items for the bath such as bombs, bubble bars & a few melts which is great as taking a bath is one of the only ways I can chill out these days. However, in one of my parcels was this Cupcake Fresh Face Mask (RRP £5.95). Although I’d never tried it, I’m no stranger to it as I always have a sniff when…

Weekly Wardrobe – Polka Dots & Bow Ties
My Weekly Wardrobe is back! I’m going to alternate every Friday between this and The Friday Five. I have finally found somewhere to take photos in good light, my garden. Ha. Thankfully next door we have a 97 year old house bound lady so there is no issue in her walking out and catching me! I still haven’t got the settings right on my camera or where to stand or what face to pull or how to pose. I’m not a model, nor do I ever wish or want to be a model. So I apologise for the silly face & funny poses. But here is what I’ve been wearing…

#58 Shop Dixi Review (& my very first OOTD, eep!)
Firstly, my camera is pretty much dead. I spent a good 15 minutes trying to get it to come on, then trying to get it to focus is like coaxing my daughter out of the bath.. near impossible! It seems to focus on one side but not the other so my photos end up half blurred sometimes, frustrating. I’m desperately selling my life to try and raise £100 before I go away next week to buy a half decent one as I’m finally meeting my friends baby boy and I want to take lots of photos! I’ve raised £30 so far. Secondly, my hair. It’s dreadful. It’s in desperate need…

#50 Recipe No.5 Oeufs en Cocotte (Eggs in Pots)
Wow.. this is my 50th blog post! I’m pretty impressed at that, and proud. I am thoroughly enjoying keeping this up, so much so I plan on updating every day for the whole of February! I figured since it’s the shortest month of the year, I’d give it a go. Shouldn’t be too difficult as I have loads of blog posts planned and I finally know how to schedule them! My weekend has been hectic and stressful (seems to be the way with my life at the moment) but tomorrow night my mum, sister & I have a girly night planned and we are finally going to watch Brave! Can’t…
