Hi! I decided to take a few pictures to go alongside my recent lookbook, you can see the video here if you haven't watched it already, if you have, thank you for watching! I have used a lot of old items in my lookbooks mixed in with some new pieces, basically shopping my wardrobe. I am still trying to make an effort to think about what I am buying before clicking on that 'buy' button, its going well so far, both for me and my bank balance! Much Love Natalie x

    Hi!       Back in the day before owning a home, having a super busy job and I was still a singleton, I used to read a lot - whilst eating my breakfast, on the bus to work, at lunchtime and then before bed. I classed reading as a hobby because it's what I done in my spare time (amongst other stuff, not a total book worm!).   This year I have set myself a target to read all the books in the picture below. A few of the books here have been sat on my bookshelf for months, one I think over a year! The first book I'm reading is Recipe for Scandal. It covers the lives of three woman all from the same family and then from what I have read at the back there are a few twists along the way, all is not what it seems! I'm only on the 2nd chapter so once I've finished I will be back with a review and let you know which book I will be reading next!   Can you recommend any good books to read?   Much Love   Natalie   x

Hi! It's been whilst hasn't it! I don't now why I stopped doing these posts but thought it would be nice to bring them back! Hollie from Pretty Big Butterflies originally set up this challenge last year so that people could start using they already have rather than keep buying a lot of new things! I had a little pamper morning, I know most people have pamper evenings/nights but prefer to do mine in the morning for some reason! I decided to open up my beauty cupboard, yep a cupboard to store the overflow of items that don't fit in my drawers! I found some items that I hadn't used so decided to try them during pamper morning. Lush Hair Mask: My first purchase from Lush! I know I am probably last to the Lush party! The lovely Becky persuaded me to purchase this, I was sold as she raved about it and said how good it was. I have to agree with her, it is really good! You literally just apply it to your hair, leave for 20 mins and then shampoo and condi

    Hi!                                      Welcome to the Shop Your Stash Challenge. This is all about finding a gem in what you already own and creating a blog post on it. This is to let go a little of the stress that comes with being a blogger - even if it is just once a month. Rummage through your beauty products and climb through those clothes draws. You might surprise yourself!   So it's my final Shop your stash post of 2014!   I just wanted to do post about forgotten favourites of 2014. Most were items that I had purchased and then left to gather dust.   First up are the Real Techniques brushes. For years I had been using one M.A.C brush, a few body shop and some unknown brand. I never realised what a difference a good brush could make until I tried these ones, I noticed a huge difference when putting on foundation or blending eye shadow. When I took these pictures it wash brush washing day so most of them were still drying including my favouri

Hi! Welcome to the Shop Your Stash Challenge. This is all about finding a gem in what you already own and creating a blog post on it. This is to let go a little of the stress that comes with being a blogger - even if it is just once a month. Rummage through your beauty products and climb through those clothes draws. You might surprise yourself! I'm still obsessed with these slim leg joggers from New Look. They make such a nice change from jeans, I haven't worn a pair for a long time mainly because my favourite ones from Yours have completely worn out and I can't find them again!                Much Love   Natalie x     Here are the other lovely ladies taking part!   Hollie Debz Nicole R Gemma Leah Helen Vicky Kittie Michelle Anne-Lise Lucia Nicola Nicole F Sharon Sam Kim Sarah Betty Abi Kaye Toni Nikki .
