An Update.

Last weekend was a very lovely one, but a very busy one! Which meant that I didn't have a chance to write either of my weekend posts or take any photos for this week. Sad Aimee. :( So instead, I thought I'd write a little update as life has been changing quite a lot for me recently. On the first of this month I begun a new job which has quite...

10 Reasons: Why I Blog.

- Because there is a certain satisfaction in knowing that this little space on the internet is all mine. - Because it means I can bake and shop to my hearts content and pass it off as 'blog content'. - Because reading lovely comments makes my day. - Because its made me get my camera out so much more. - Because its given me an excuse to buy flowers...

FOTD to FOTN.

Today I thought I'd share with you a FOTD to FOTN look that I've been loving lately. It once again features my favourite lip product of the moment and an old favourite in terms of eyeshadow! Like nearly all FOTD or FOTN posts I've written I'm once again using my trusty Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation in 52. I really do love this foundation,...

One Week, 6 till 9.

After reading Cider With Rosie's Hour by Hour post a few weeks back, I felt inspired to create my own post showing 'normal' daily life through pictures. I decided instead to do it across a week and originally I planned to take a photo at 7.30pm every day. As you can see that didn't work from the off! Oops! Instead it turned into a picture between...

A Ring Obsession.

A bit of a different post from me today and not one I thought I'd ever write! I've never really been a 'ring' person, but recently I noticed myself always gravitating towards the rings in jewelry sections. I eventually bought two different sets from H&M and I literally can't stop wearing them! I'm a total ring convert. Rose Gold is definitely...

FOTD | Springy Days.

Ever taken a load of FOTD pictures only to realise when you upload the photos that actually you have a ridiculous fringe throughout it? Yeah? That. So annoying :( It was badly in need of a cut that day too, so it looks rather interesting. Silly fringe aside though, I am loving this look for the sunny weather we're having at the moment! Gotta love...

Sunday Bake | White Chocolate and Macadamia Nut Pie

Pie is back on the menu this Sunday Bake and I couldn't be happier. Yesterday, Katie and myself decided to have a day watching films and eating yummy food so obviously baking was going to be a part of that somehow! You may be confused when I say this pie is a White Chocolate and Macadamia Nut considering it looks veryy much like dark...

Review | Emma Hardie AM/PM Treatment Moisturiser

All hail to the most decadent moisturiser to have ever graced my skincare stash. It's definitely one of the most high-end products I've ever splurged on but as I've found out, totally lives up to expectation. I spoke about this briefly last week in my Mini Space NK Haul but I thought it definitely deserved its own starring review. The...

Spotlight On: Rimmel

Back in February I started a little series where I put the spotlight on a particular brand. Its now April, and this is my second installment - oops! Lot's of other posts got in the way, but it's back now with the spotlight placed firmly on Rimmel. When I was deciding which three Rimmel products were my favourite I was surprised to realise that...

Tickets and Playbills.

From reading my blog I'm sure you're all quite aware that I have a profound love for Baking, but what you may not know is that my other love is reserved for the Theatre. So much so that my University Dissertation revolved around the works of Hammerstien and Sondheim - Sondheim being my favourite musical composer of all time. I couldn't tell you...

Tag | I ♥ Spring.

To mark the DELIGHTFUL start to a sunny Spring I thought I'd kick things off with this little tag! Knowing me I'll have jinxed us all now and it'll rain all week. If I've begun this I'm sorry, I accept all charges! But for now, on-wards with the tag! :) 1. Favourite Spring nail polish? Anything Mint Green or Sky Blue has my heart in Spring....

Mini Space NK Haul.

This may come as a surprise to many of you, but until a few weeks ago I'd never bought anything in Space NK. I know its craziness! But a few weeks ago I finally took the plunge and splurged a little. I have to say Space NK have the best customer service ever. The lady who helped me was so lovely, we had such a nice chat and she picked out some...
