february in pictures.

February hasn't been an expectationally busy month for me, I started my new job which I love, found a super foundation and made some finishing touches to my house. I have been spending a lot more time with friends and family now I am in a different shift pattern and I seem to have had a month of binge eating too! I spent Valentines day with Jake and we enjoyed a night in with wine and chocolates and I am super excited we have come to the end of February as March is my birthday month. Here are some pictures from my month...

to me love me.

Christmas spirit to me is more about giving gifts than receiving them, I love watching my friends and families faces as they open gifts that I've put a lot of thought into. Having said that, it is near impossible to go into all those shops to buy presents without treating myself to a thing or two!

my goodies.

While I have been saving money and trying to not spend so much I have started to make a list at the beginning of each month of things that I need to buy, this way I knew exactly what I wanted to get so I wasn't browsing around shops and spending a fortune. It seems though, that each time I have been out shopping the products I wanted to buy haven't been there, so instead i have been substituting them with products that I think are kind of similar, because of this I have found some amazing new products and brands and thought that it would be good to review some of these on here :)

home inspirations and wishful thinking.

Me and my partner have just been approved for a mortgage (yay!) and are currently in the fun process of looking for houses and thinking about interior design (the fun bit before all the paperwork!) and when I say ‘we’ it’s basically me coming home every day and talking about what I want and Jake going along with it.

I’ve been looking at a lot of websites and catalogues trying to get some inspiration ready for when we find a place and think I’ve kind of decided on what type of style I want to go for, I haven’t set anything in stone as I know that if I get too hung up on a specific design I won’t be happy unless I get it!
