November favourites

Can't believe its snowy December already! Where did the year go? Anyway here are some skin care products I loved in November:

1. Body Shop Moringa body butter


This keeps your skin baby soft & smelling fresh and lovely!


2. No.7 Protect and Perfect Eye Cream

I have serious issues with panda eyes & eye bags so have always used eye creams but to be honest I never know if they are effective as I still have them!!! I'm sure eye creams are one of those products you must use, but never really does anything? Anyhoo, this eye cream is light & creamy so a little goes a long way! I do notice that it lightens the dark circle a little!


3. No 7 Protect & Perfect Beauty Serum



A little pricey but silky, soft and smooth! Helps reduce pores and smooth wrinkles in just 4 weeks, this is a must have for all beauty-junkies!


4. Clinique Total Turnaround Visible Skin Renewer



i.love.this. It lets your skin breathe, leaving it refreshed & rejunevated! Creamy but not greasy, silky and smooth! Also notice it brightens my skin and reduce redness especially in the mornings! l.o.v.e!


Hope you find this post helpful :) Rememeber moisturise moisturise moisturise especially in the harsh winter conditions!

Message from Patch

It is very cold out there (in Europe) so make sure all you lovely people wrap up warm ♥ woof ♥


Aw, I miss my little Patchie. I'm sure it is very pretty across Europe at the moment, but hope the snow goes away soon as I'm sure it has caused plenty of disruptions! xxx

One of the things I've always wanted to do...

Swimming with dolphins wild dolphins ♥ Very lucky to have swam with the World's rarest breed: Hector's dolphins! it.was.phenomenal.






Have you ever swam with dolphins? If so, where and did you have fun?

p/s apologies for abandoning the blog but promise to update more often!

Kia Ora...

from Christchurch, New Zealand!!


Flying into Christchurch


I'll be in this part of the World for just under 4 months - I will try to blog as much and hope you lovely readers come on an adventure with me ♥

I realise I lost my purse when I got on the train to the airport which is rubbish! Luckily it was in the car, but I guess it's a sign - big guy up there didn't want me to have my credit cards with me! I already promised I won't shop too much! Grr and now I dont have anything with me not even driving license makes it really tricky! so I would appreciate all your recommendations to do (free) stuff around NZ!

Country Barn

Thought I'd share some pictures of the lovely barn/cottage we stayed at last week!


Entrance/outdoor space


Kitchen


Top landing


So cute


New found hobby (actually won 6/6 games - must be beginners luck haha!)


Amazing main bedroom


Amazing main en-suite with the biggest bath & shower ever! We had fun times in there!


Amazing views all around



Had such an amazing time away from civilisation - long walks, tea, board games, reading, cooking ... it feels odd coming back to reality & seeing other human beings!! I want to stay there forever!! It's also a working dairy farm so I got to milk cows! Was so much fun, also saw baby cows, so cuteeee!




If you'd like to have a country retreat to get away from stress and have some peace & quiet, this really is the best place to be! In the middle of nowhere but yet within reach of fun things to do ie Exmoor, Dartmoor, Coastal Paths ... let me know if you're interested I can forward you details! We only paid £300 for a WHOLE week (sleeps up to 4 people & pets welcomed).

I really miss the fresh air, long walks and just total relaxation, no rush for anything! Ahh take me back there NOW!

Jewellery

Hello lovelies ♥ I'm back from the much needed retreat & have had fun spending a long time catching up all your blogs (have missed reading them!) anyway I was browsing and looking at various jewellery & thought these are so cute:


Sweetheart ring


Wing earrings

Also from Zara Taylor/Truebirds:






I love this!

Ah lots of birds & wings lol but they are just so beautiful! Hope you have had a lovely weekend xxx
