February Favourites

Am I writing this whilst I devour a piece of homemade Lemon Meringue Pie? Yes, yes I am. And do I feel guilty about doing so? No, no I do not. I mean what else would I get up to on Monday evening after a tiring day at work other than feel sorry for myself by eating my own bodyweight in Lemon Meringue Pie - sounds like a perfect evening to me! Well, that and catching up on Pretty Little Liars - which has got rather intense and confusing again by the way; I'm sure all #PPL fans will agree with me somewhat. 

Anyhoo, what an absolute whirlwind these last few weeks have been but whilst I have been gathering my thoughts ready for the month of March, I've decided there is only one thing that wish would in March; if the clocks insist on 'springing forward', please spring forward to the warm, sunny weather that we are all lusting over. Whilst I've been longing for Spring to arrive, there's still been time to pick up a few new favourites along the way: 

1. FLORIDA. FLORIDA. FLORIDA.

Did I mention that I just booked a holiday with my bestie (for the best part of eighteen years) to Florida? YES! I am going to Disneyland in Florida. I've never been across the pond before, so imagine my excitement when it turned from just talking about going to America to actually happening - hell to the yeah! It might be 61 days away but the planning has already began and I don't just mean what we are going to do whilst in Florida; I mean the clothes and essentials I am going to take. Some might call me organised; others will call me crazy but hey, who cares?! Because I'm going to FLORIDA!  

2. Chasing Daisy | Paige Toon 

Who has two thumbs and loves curling up on the sofa with a good book? Yes, that's right this gal does. Towards the end of February I really got into Chasing Daisy by Paige Toon - maybe you checked out my book review on it? - a cute, romantic novel and any women who has ever had a crush or implusive relationship experience can relate too. I've never read any of Paige Toon's book; however it is such an easy read and full of sexual and romantic tension that I'll definitely be going back for another book from her collection. Watch this space for more book reviews to come. 

3. Bourjois Colour Boost Lip Crayon | Red Sunshine 

I'll be honest with you, I've never been a big fan of lipstick (well putting it on anyway).  Don't get me wrong, I love a good lipstick but I can just never seem to be able to put it on right. Seriously? I will literally get it everywhere. It's ridiculous - honestly you wouldn't think I'm a twenty one year old girl at times.  But this stuff. Amazing. Either way, my lips get the full effect of lipstick, without all the mess that putting lipstick on can cause and it comes in this divine colour. It's a dream! *insert heart eye emoji here*.

4. Yankee Candle Lemongrass & Ginger Wax Tart 

Okay imagine the Lime flavoured Starburst sweet in candle form. Amazing, right? Since Spring is just around the corner, I seriously can't get enough of this scent; honestly it is so refreshing and sweet. And yes, after burning it for a matter of hours I was down the shop buying myself some Starburst. Bliss. 

Until the next monthly favourites in thirty-one days time, Au Revoir!

Love,
