Sweet things: Paul & Joe and Rilakkuma


My purchases this month had a theme of sweetness so I thought I should share it on here. I bought some new make-up from Harrods as they had a good range of Paul & Joe cosmetics. Here I have:
Liquid eye-liner
Light cream foundation
Face Powder
Brush Holder


I love their style of packaging!


The brush holder has two compartments and a vintage style that is carried across the other items.


The face powder comes with a pom pom to put on the make-up with but I don't think I'll ever use mine as it is too cute!


My delivery from Harrods came with a little note to say thank you for shopping with them. Nice little touch :)


My first Rilakkuma purchase! I saw this pencil case on ebay and had to get it as it displays my love of coffee. One bonus I didn't notice on the ebay photos was the Rilakkuma writing in the background is actually in glitter!






The best candle I have smelt so far is this Woodwick Trilogy candle in Fresh Baked which is Bakery cupcake, orange gingersnap and coffee cake. I look forward to seeing how the fragrance changes throughout the three layers.


The wooden wick is unique to these candles as it gives off the sound of a crackling fire as it burns.

New Year Favourites


Firstly, I found these cushions in Vinegar Hill which are by Nikki Mcwilliams. There's more on their site that I didn't see in store like Party Rings and Nice Biscuits. I have a problem now though because I want them all!




To celebrate the new Yankee Candle store in Bristol's Cabot Circus I had to buy the Honey Blossom fragrance. I blame Kristi for getting me into buying candles now though because I was never really bothered about them before. She even convinced me to buy the bigger size by saying it was better value for money than getting the little ones. She should work in their sales department I think...



I needed to buy a new laptop as my current one is very outdated and on its last legs so I got a 13" Macbook Pro and this is its new home. I went for a smart sleeve from Jack Wills that has their traditional pink and blue combination. It has a slim pocket on the front and a strong looped zipper which I think does the job quite nicely.





Oh my goodness I am so in love with Rilakkuma right now! That and 'Little Twin Stars.' So many cute things! If you like pastel colours then LTS is the one for you but you can't go wrong with teddy bears dressed as bunnies - holding - teddy bears dressed as bunnies.

Also I've gotten a bit addicted to Tumblr because of this as well. If you like lots of cute/illustration/anime/design things then get on it here - My Tumblr
