RAMBLINGS

As I'm currently typing this I have a cup of tea waiting for me on the table and the Practical Magic soundtrack blasting through my speakers. Singing along to Stevie Nicks just reminds me of how much I adore this film & how much I'd love to live in a world filled with real magic. Now that I have some free time on my hands, I might as well dive back into blogging while job hunting. I was going to put some washing on. I'm procrastinating. Shhh.

PHOTO DIARY #3: FLAMINGOLAND

Traveling to flamingo-land was a lovely sight for the eyes. As I looked out of the bus window, I saw beautiful cottage homes, you know, homes that don't have numbers but names. Where everyone knows each other & foliage grows around house windows, shops look more expensive than they are and no litter in sight. My future self wants to live in this village, current self loves living near city's too much. Anyway.. here are a few photos I took while I was there..

TOKYO TREAT | AUGUST 2016

HOW PHOTOGENIC IS ALL THIS PACKAGING?! Also I was swarmed by bees while taking these photos! The price of blogging. I guess they just wanted all the yummy goodies inside the box!

Tokyo Treat is a japanese candy subscription box straight from Japan delivered to your door. You can choose from three plans, Small for $14.99 a month, Regular for $24.99 and Premium for $34.99, (which is the one I have) Premium is everything you get in small and regular with a drink and extras included. There were sixteen items in the premium box. Each month has a theme and August was the month of Tropical Fruits! Each part of this post will show you what goodies you would have gotten if you choose other plans. :D Also this post is very photo heavy. :D Look at all the cute packaging! <3 I was planning on doing a video unboxing but we started to eat some of the stuffs and then I decided it would be easier to blog than attempt to pronounce some of the brands in a video :P

ALL IS NOT FORGOTTEN | BOOK REVIEW

This book had me very intrigued from the start. (Also enjoy my use of gifs)

ALOE THERE, YOU'RE A RIGHT PRICK | HOW: Jewellery Club*

EVERYTHING IS TOO CUTE. GO GET YOURSELF A HOW JEWELLERY CLUB SUB. The end.

Alright, I'll do a proper review. But those little jewellery boxes should have won you over as soon as you saw them. And I hope you giggled at my title because it fits perfectly with this months theme... ;)

KATY PERRY X COVERGIRL

You all know Katy Perry. She needs no introduction but did you know she collaborated with Cover Girl and made her own Matte Lipsticks called Katy Kat Matte. ( HOW CUTE IS THAT NAME?!) Covergirl claim their lippys are a purrfect collection of velvety soft lipsticks with a demi matte finish. There are eleven shades but I only got four. They retail at $7.99 but prices vary.
Since these are not in the UK yet I asked my friend Kristen if she would nip to the shop for them and I would pay her for the lipsticks and shipping. Sometimes having friends overseas helps alot! :D
