My desk space

I'm finally happy with my desk space. I try to keep to a theme. I love white walls (and if you have been to my house you would pick that up pretty easy).

Giveaway

I've just reached 500 GFC Followers this week, so I thought I would do a Giveaway as a little thank you. I was a little un-sure on what to give away...

Stella

I previously mentioned in this post that I purchased 'Stella by Stella McCartney' in a box set in the Boots sale. I've been meaning to get this perfume ever since I smelt it - which I think could possibly be a good few years ago now...

New in: Newlook wedge boots

I've been wanting to purchase these boots from Newlook but since going back to my local store to purchase them they have only had size 6's which my big feet will not squeeze into. Whilst having a look for them I saw these wedge style boots.

Review: Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish

I finally brought the Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish. I really don't know what has took me so long. With so many amazing reviews on the product I really wanted to try it myself. This is also my first Liz Earle product.

Interior: Small acrylic drawers


Here is a couple of things I have picked up for my bedroom. One being a mini Acrylic draw from homebase. I have been searching for something else to sit on my dressing table for ages, never thought of matching my other acrylic draws with this. I've put some lipsticks in it just to show, but it now has a mixture of things which I use everyday.

The jar was from TK Maxx. I love finding little things like this there. Was only a few quid and really matches my interior in my bedroom. 

It's been so so long since I've blogged. I've only blogged once in June! But that is because I am getting closer and closer to opening the shop. I'm thinking of doing a preview of stock I have chosen as well as a before and after of decorating the shop. When things cool down I can be back into blogging regulary.
I did Day 1 of the 30 Day Shred yesterday. And boy am I aching. I haven't properly done excerise for about 2 years so really wanted to do something. I'm not able to go to the gym as I have a back injury and problems breathing so thought might as well jump on the bank wagon of 30 Day shred. I've seen so many good reviews and photos from the workout. It's only 20 minutes long too. Which is perfect to fit into my busy life with literally two full time jobs starting. I think I'm going to do it every other day unless I start getting fit sharpish. At the moment I am struggling up and down the stairs and my abs kill! It was easier than I thought though. But it is Level 1. Also want to really concentrate on healthy eating (hmm ignore the energy drink and fanta today) but seriously I have cut down no end already. If I cut everything out I will not stick to it.
Hopefully I will post tomorrow, but if not I have a weekend ahead of web design and logo design, so will sure have a break and post. At least it is Friday tomorrow. Hope everyone has had a lovely week. Looking forward to the weekend.

+ Nearly forgot - I am in the middle of AGAIN changing my blog layout. So please excuse the mess. I dont have any links on anything at the moment but will be adding them shortly. I also have a lot of things missing from the sidebar. Trying to make everything user friendly although I do like my mimilaist style if you haven't already noticed.

New in: Ikea, Topshop, Essie etc.

Thought I'd show a few things I've brought recently. I went to Ikea yesterday with my family to look at furniture for the shop. I picked up a couple of things for my house as well, of course. I got some more artificial flowers to swap with any plants which I have let die. I'm awful at keeping them alive. I either over water them or under water them. The only ones I can keep alive are orchirds.
I also got these two striped pillow cases for bed. I really need to finish getting things for my house to make it feel homely as I still don't feel like it is.


 I've needed a new purse for a while now. I had the Soft leather one from Topshop which they have in many other styles but I always managed to have things falling out of it because it was so soft. I saw this in Topshop last week and had to have it. I love how different it is. Although, I regretted it about 4 shops later when I was setting every shop door alarms off. Supringsling I watched the girl in Topshop take the take off so was confused why I was setting it off. I ended up taking it back to the car and carrying on shopping. Although, I was still setting the alarms off. The only other bag I had with me was Primark which my boyfriend was carrying and was stood behind/in front everytime. I've now had to leave my Zara bag at home and only take my purse and phone out with me just in case I have to go in somewhere like Asda which I also set the alarm off with. Decided that it is either my handbag or something in it. I have emptied it and can't find anything. So annoyed. Anyone experienced this?
  I'm still loving the John Frieda Full repair range so picked up the Deep conditioner. The rings are from Primark for a couple of quid. Really liked the pastel colours. They were all stuck together but I took the bar off so I can decide if I want to wear them separately or all together. Finally, I caved in and brough Essies Nail polish in Fiji. I've just used the nail masks and painted my nails in it and it's so pretty. I thought it was going to be so sheer, but two coats and it's opaque.

Finally, all is coming together with the shop! Bank is all behind us and we're in talks with the lanlord now. So just have the solicitars to have to wait for basically. I've spent nights looking for stock. Can't complain. My business bank card came through yesterday so may put some orders in tomorrow. Exciting! :) It's going to be mine and my mums shop. I am going to stay in full time work in my office job untill we bring in enough money. But will obviously work evenings and weekends. We are stocking crafts, gifts, homeware, handbags and jewellery as well as everything else in between. Currently going through tons of bath bombs trying to decide which to stock.
