What's In My Hand Luggage?

26/6/2016

2 Comments

 
Hello everyone!
Happy Sunday!
Did you see last week's post about the June Glossybox? (​Here)
On Friday I flew out to Spain with my family so I thought you'd like to see what I crammed into my hand luggage!
As we were travelling as a family, my dad had all of our important documents and passports so I didn't have to worry about that!

Just as an FYI, as I'm on holiday, I'm writing this blog post and next week's post on my phone, so if the layout is a bit different or the photos are huge, that's because I can't change too much! I'll fix them when I'm home.

I bought a new bag for holiday from boohoo. I had my eye on a gorgeous gold one from ASOS but it was constantly out of stock, so I settled for this one instead. The next day the gold one was back in stock! I do like this one though as it looks very nautical, and it comes with a little matching zippy purse too.

This is what I had in my hand luggage (not all pic​tured as some where thrown in last minute):

- Electricals:
iPhone, iPad, camera, earbuds

​- Necessaties:
tissues, hand sanitiser, a pen

- Beauty:
compact mirror, pressed powder, travel powder brush, lippie, nail glue, hair brush, sunglasses

​- Edibles:
chewing gum, jelly beans, fruit crumbles

Once we'd got through security and everything I bought more travel snacks and a bottle of water too.

What do you take on the plane with you? Leave me a comment!

Thanks for reading and I'll be back next Sunday with a 'Summer Skincare Essentials' post.

Winchester Christmas Market

Hello everyone!
Happy Sunday!

On Wednesday afternoon, my mum, my sister and I took the train to Winchester so that we could mooch around the Winchester Christmas Market. Winchester is always lovely anyway and we had a really wonderful day out. Here are a few of the photos I took.
Winchester Christmas Market
Let's start with an OOTD.

My jumper is from New Look and is classed as a 'jumper dress', I wouldn't wear it as a dress because it would be too short on me! It had 25% off when I bought it too. 
My jeans are from Sainsbury's.
My boots are old and from Primark, despite the  block heel they are so comfy and because I knew we'd be doing a lot of walking, these were perfect.
My lipstick is Make Up Revolution in the colour "Rebel With A Cause" and is a lovely berry tone.

This was the first stall and it was beautiful, filled with scented dried fruit and peel wreathes and decorations.  My mum bought a 'fruit circle' and as lovely as it was, it smelled SO strongly of orange and spices, it got too much!  When we got home we had to put it in the cupboard under the stairs because it was giving us a headache, haha.
Picture

There were over 100 stalls and there was such a variety.

These were called "Smoothie Candles"

There were lots of yummy snack stalls  and I love how traditional they make them look, really makes it feel festive.

One stall was filled with festive decorations and that made me feel very Christmassy.

This was one of my favourite stalls, it wasn't selling anything but people could leave  notes  about what/who/where makes them happy or what they're thankful for. It's such a lovely idea and the gold really stood out in the sun.
Picture
After we'd seen all there was to see we wandered about the shops and stopped for something to eat becuase we were all freezing by this point and very peckish.
Picture
(excuse the iPhone quality and poor lighting)
We stopped at the West Cornish Pasty Co as we've eaten  there before and the wedges are delish! I also had a sausage roll. It was very tasty and warmed me right up.
Picture
It was getting dark by this point so we got  to see the tree  all lit up as well as the other lights which was magical.
I had such a nice day with my family and it was nice to go somewhere and do something different.

I'm going to my work Christmas meal tonight so my next post will be my OOTN.

Thanks for reading and speak to you soon!

Enjoy!

Couldn't resist!
Marwell has some really beautiful grounds to walk around as well, so I couldn't help but take a couple of snaps.

So that is the rest of my photos from my trip to Marwell Zoo!
In all honesty, I could have probably put them all into one blog post but I thought that might be a bit too overwhelming and possibly boring. 


We were so lucky to have such lovely weather on the day, and I'm so pleased with my new camera! 

Have you ever been to Marwell Zoo? Let me know.

Thanks for reading, 
I'll speak to you on Sunday!

A Trip To Marwell Zoo | Part 1

7/6/2015

Hello everyone!
Happy Sunday!

That was a short hiatus, wasn't it?
I think the plan will be to only post when I have something I'm happy to blog about, because otherwise I feel like I have to blog and then I'm just blogging about rubbish for the sake of it. I'm starting to feel a bit better so I'm going to try to stick to posting every Sunday, as usual, but I might hold off on posting on Fridays for a little while. I hope that's ok with you? 

Anyway, onto the blog post!
(If you're reading this via the Bloglovin app and the quality of the photos is rubbish, click 'view original post' under the title)
It worked out that I had Wednesday and Thursday off from work last week and as my sister had finished her AS exams, she was home too so my dad took some time off of work (my mum doesn't work) and we planned a couple of days out. I have recently bought a new camera so this was the perfect opportunity to have a play with it and take some photos. On the Wednesday we went to lunch in Newbury (blog post to follow at some point) and on Thursday, as the weather was supposed to be nicer, we went to Marwell Zoo. 
Two perfect family days were exactly what I needed. 
Today I thought I'd share with you my photos!
I took quite a few so I'm going to split this post in two; part 1 today, part 2 tomorrow.

No 'day out' post is complete without an OOTD!
Top, cut-off jeans and shoes are all from Primark a couple of years ago (sorry) and my anklet is from
ASOS recently. I'm so obsessed with it, it's so cute and only £6!

Thanks for reading and sticking by me,


I'll see you back here tomorrow!
