Adventures In 35mm - pt 2.

Hello!

Well sadly it's Monday again, not one to wish my life away at all but I really really hate Mondays! 

Today I have the 2nd part of my adventures in 35mm - here is the first part. This is my 2nd roll of film I shot and I'm so much more pleased with how this film turned out!

My cat back in Devon - Pippa. You might remember her from my old posts when I lived back home :)

What do you think? Any tips or hints for me to get a better lighting?

In Utero - outfit post.

Hello!

Hope your week is going well, it's finally Friday and I'm so excited for a lay-in tomorrow!

Today I have an outfit post to share, it's great for warm days - not so great for this crazy rain we've had all week:

Sunglasses - Topshop
Kimono - Primark
Top - ebay
Jeans - Primark
Shoes - H&M

I love this kimono so much, I picked it up in Primark last month, it's really sheer, a beautiful print and really soft material.

I couldn't resist the cheapy Nirvana tank, In Utero is definitely their best album and it reminds me of my teenage years.

This always happens in Summer - I seem to want to always wear jeans! I never wear jeans except for in these warmer months which makes no sense at all! I've been trying to watch my weight again which is hard for me as I love food so much but eating healthy does make me feel much better. I'm hoping to start some exercise next month but the only thing with joining a gym is that by the time I get home from work I'm so tired and being on my feet all day means my legs ache too - like right now! I was going to go out but then I took my shoes off and now I can't move from the sofa :p

Hope you have a great weekend, I'm getting tattooed tomorrow for the first time in a year - can't wait!

Yves Rocher Youth Intensifier Serum.

With the weather being warmer (despite being raining 24/7!!!) I feel like my make-up just sliiides straight off my face so I tend not to wear it during the day when at work or if I'm staying in. This has been great for my skin, although this week I appear to of had a breakout but I did have a facial last week during a spa day.

Even though I'm 24 I think it's important to take care of my skin by using anti-aging products and with that all-natural products! 

This is why I'm super excited to share Yves Rocher's youth intensifying serum with you:  

Yves Rocher - Youth Intensifier Serum*

Yves Rocher harvest the botanical ingredients used in the product from their own fields in Brittany, France, they are all about the power of plants. They are also super ethical which is a HUGE plus point for me they never use endangered plants, any animal-based products (bar beeswax), they never test on animals and only use palm oil sustainable by the RSPO.

Now onto the product!

The serum is very light, dries in quickly and doesn't leave any sticky or greasy feeling on your skin just a soft and smooth feeling. It can be used on its own, day or night or also in conjunction with your daily skincare routine.
The products claims that after:

1 Day - Skin radiance is restored
1 Week - Wrinkles are reduced and skin texture is refined
1 Month - Skin appears radiant with youth.

I don't know how you appear radiant with youth but I'd definitely say my skin does look more radiant after 2 weeks of use at least once a day - and people have even commented on it!

I really want to try some more products by Yves Rocher as I love their ethics and approach to skincare plus this has been a winner so far!

Urban Grow.

Good Evening! 

Today I want to share some little gems I've come across via the Urban Outfitters homeware section as part of Urban Grow which is all about indoor gardening (my fave): 

Large Cactus Planter.
Everything about this is perfect! I love how huge it is and how it fits thin plants in it looks awesome.

Cat Strawberry Planter.
This is probably my favourite thing in the world ever, you fill the cup with water and the fabric tail soaks up water to feed the Strawberry plant in the kitty's backpack :')

Dolphin Watering Can.
This is so fun! There is also a duck, pig, hippo and poodle!

Lavender Egg Planter.
This cutie egg also comes in Mint and a Cactus. You simply crack the eggs top, water and wait for it to grow. I love the smell of Lavender ♥!

Make Your Own Terrarium.
This is so so perfect! A mini terrarium. I love this little deer version. 

Two-Tone Planter.
This huge gorgeous planter would look amazing in a corner of a room. 

Diamond Terrarium.
I'd love this huge terrarium - I'd do it up so well ;)

What do you think? I lovee home-plant accessories! With this weather its so hard to get out into the garden to do anything and as soon as it rains the weeds just grow up again! Hopefully next time I move I will have loads of natural light (my biggest issue at the moment!) so I can have tons and tons of indoor plants! 

Hope your weekend has gone well, I've literally spend it doing NOTHING!

Heart Explosions Shirt.

Good Afternoon!

It's finally Friday and also a bank holiday weekend - woohoo! I'll be spending my 3 days off relaxing and sleeping waiting for this gross rain to pass.

Luckily this week a tiny bit of sun shone through enough for me to get into the garden to take some pictures with my new Hawes & Curtis shirt to show off to you all: 

Hawes & Curtis - Heart Explosion Slim Fit Shirt*

I love the detailing on this shirt, it's my first real proper shirt-shirt as I'm used to cheapy, baggy styles. It is slim fitting and lined especially to accentuate your figure which gives a feminine silhouette.

The contrast of collar and cuff make it stand out and I love that there is a dainty little rounded collar which is so pretty. The single cuff is also rounded which doesn't make you feel like you are restricted like alot of shirt cuffs can do.

The shirt also came beautifully packaged with shirt pins holding the shirt to crease in the right places. They have some beautiful styles at the moment which are perfect for sophisticated and fashionable looks :)

What do you think of my shirt?

Hope you have a great weekend!
