3. Vintage Jar - Dunelm Mill
4. Pastel Geometric print - Etsy
5. Cath Kidston Little Bird case - ASOS

Happy weekend everyone! I have come across a few good finds this week and thought I would feature them. I originally saw this style of post from MilkBubbleTea, I love her blog you should check it out!

The Fair Isle print is something I love, super festive and this mint jumper is so stylish, it looks snuggly too. The Lomography camera is so cute isn’t it? I saw a great post on Pinterest of a glass jar filled with pink bon bons, It made such a great display! I need some new prints for my frames and this Geometric print is modern yet chic. I have just placed an order on ASOS with the 20% off code currently advertised and this cute Cath Kidston purse may have been one of the items I purchased :) and last but not least how lovely is this coat, I love it and they have it in a few other colours too. I feel this cream one would look great with pastel accessories! 

I really want to post more than once a week and will try my best. To keep up to date please follow me on bloglovin! I hope you enjoyed this post, let me know what you think!

Festive Yankee Candles!





Hello! Hope you are all well. As you can tell unfortunately I can’t take part in Blogmas this year, really gutted but I didn’t realise how busy I am.

How is the weather where you are, there is a storm here! Nothing like being cosy with a movie, popcorn and some festive candles! I wouldn’t say I’m new to Yankee Candles but I have never really been able to justify spending all that money on a candle and have settled for the little sampler candles and wax tarts instead.

This candle was my first ever actual candle jar purchase and I went for the large jar! I purchased it this time last year and never burnt it till this year. The large jar has lasted a pretty long time the actual burning time is 110-150 hours. It is a great scent for this time of year very relaxing. Aptly named this candle I’d say smells exactly like vanilla icing! 

I purchased this candle a few days ago and have been burning it since. I didn’t realise how little it was until I received it. I now totally think the bigger jars are worth the money. It’s not as strong as the Christmas Cookie candle but does leave a subtle scent if that makes sense?! It smells similar to an apple pie and is quite a warming scent.

I would shop around for Yankee Candles as some places are cheaper than others. eBay always has a range at a discounted price, so you can often be able to grab a bargain!

I hope you enjoyed this post of my current favourite candles! Do you have any suggestions, if so please let me now in the comments!
