Miss Selfridge SS14 John Lewis Event.

This week I was invited to an event at John Lewis showing off some of the new Miss Selfridge collections for SS'14. The event was actually really good and had guest speakers and demos from Japonesque and Liz Earle (who gave us a sneak peak of their 3 new body ranges). 

Me and my fellow Cardiff bloggy pal Charli were both driving so opt'd for a champagne glass of orange juice and went wild on the different flavour macarons on offer.

Neons.

I NEED this fluffy jumpe, I have a tartan style skirt that it would go perfectly with!

This super cute daisy print shirt would look amazing on a night out.

I fell head over heels for this yellow fluffy jumper from the pastels collection.

Japonesque did a smokey eye tutorial.

We were treated to arm massages from the wonderful Liz Earle ladies using their new indulgent bath and body range that comes in 3 different scents: Tiare & Jasmine, Bergemot & Ginger and my personal fave the Vanilla & Saffron.

To see the treats we were so kindly given in an unexpected goody-bag check out my Instagram ;)

As I've been so poorly it was nice to get out of the house!

BANK Fashion SS'14

As predicted in my last post - I got ill. I've been laying in bed for the past 3 days and today I'm still feeling it but the show must go on and I've decided to do a post showing off some new things from BANK Fashion.

There are some really pretty pastel dresses from Pink Soda who are part of BANKS exclusive brand portfolio:

I think these beautiful Adidas would look so awesome with any of these dresses in the Summer:

Adidas Originals ZX 700 - £65

What do you think of BANKS new SS14 looks?

I'm off back to bed,

Chunky Boots.

When I go out I CANNOT wear heels, I can't walk in them and they hurt like hell. I always opt for wearing boots out and the only fancy ones I have that I can spent the whole night in are my JuJu's and they are no good in the wind and rain!

I was recently asked if I wanted to try out some women's shoes from Heelberry, so I chose myself a pair of boots that I can wear on a night out and will actually last the whole night in:

ANGUS Lace Up Boots - Heelberry *

I can actually feel myself getting a cold coming, I hope it just passes as a sniffle but so many people have had flu's and fevers recently I'm super scared I'm going to get ill, so I'm just trying to keep warm and keep my mind on other things.

Bonus cat picture.

What do you think of Heelberry? Hope you had a great weekend!

Totally Tropical!

Today, for the first time in what feel like a year, the sun came out! The day did start with rain, then it rained some more half-way through but even just the feel of the sun on my skin as I walked home, and the blueness of the sky, made everything feel SO much better. 

So as I was so excited at the smallest thought of Spring and sunshine, I've put together a little tropical themed wishlist:

Mint Floral Collared Dress - Glamorous
This dress is so so cute I love the style aswell as the bright colours.

Tropical Mom Shorts - New Look
I love that these printed shorts are hi-waisted for ladies like me with a big booty so it makes you feel good while looking awesome! 

Bird Wooden Wall Print - Urban Outfitters.
I would love to have this in my living room so much! 

Palm Cropped Sheer Blouse - Sister Jane

Tropical Chopping Board - Urban Outfitters
I NEED! This is gorgeous I love the Miami Vice colours.

Paquita Cut-out Jelly Shoes - Missguided
I'm so ready to put my jelly shoes back on, I didn't pick up the glittery style ones last year but this year - it's time!

Oversized Ombre Sunglasses - ASOS
These are my two-fave colours together on beautiful circular sunglasses.
Living on my wishlist until the sun pops out!

Are you feeling the tropical vibe? I just can't wait for Spring!

St.Davids Hotel Spa.

Last Sunday I had a belated Birthday gift from my mum in the form of a spa day at the fabulous St.Davids Hotel in Cardiff Bay. 

I've been to the hotel before during the Next Homeware event which was amazing so I was super excited to get to the spa!

As soon as we arrived I went in for my treatment - a 55-minute full body massage. It was heaven! Having a massage is great but my fave place is my legs as I'm stood up at work all day - those bad boys ache! I could easily get a massage every week but the cost of that would be insane so I was so excited for this. 

The relaxing treatment room.

After being so relaxed it was time to hit the spa. The spa has often been awarded a top 5 position in the UK's top spas so I was really looking forward to get in. First stop was the huge jacuzzi which had underwater-beds. There was also a hydro-therapy area, a sauna room (with hot coals) and a swimming pool. My only complaint was that the swimming pool was way to cold for me so I couldn't really swim and enjoy it without dreaming of running straight to the sauna.

It was such a sunny day considering all the bad weather we have had.
This is the view of the bay.

Part of the deal we took up was you also get afternoon tea. I've never had an afternoon tea before and the little sandwiches, cakes and scones were so tasty and we also had a selection of tea's to choose from.

Afternoon tea. The cheesecake wtas amazing!

I had such a nice, relaxing day. I totally recommend the St.Davids Hotel Spa for a great day of relaxation.
