Pre-Christmas Clear Out!

Hey everyone!

With the holidays coming, I decided it was most definitely time to clear out my beauty stash! I admit to being a beauty hoarder! However, I know at Christmas time more always comes along, so with that in mind I decided to minimise(ish).

First thing was to get out all my beauty products (except make-up) from there little(ish) home. Abundance of products much?

I decided to throw away certain things (such as all those useless self-tanners and build up tan moisturisers). Put others in a use up before Christmas section. Then with the remainder I put them back in there stash (hopefully more organised).

I decided that if I keep the products I need to use up out and on display it will remind me to use them, instead of half using everything!

I personally found half used body moisturisers my worst product!

Picture of the Day!

Autumn Arrived


Muddy dog walks are always a good sign that autumn is here!

I personally love it when the weather gets colder, the leaves change colour and start to fall. One of the things that comes with this a lot is rain however, and in England we have had a lot of it recently! Resulting in the valley were I like to walk my Lab turning into a world of squelchy mud and dirty puddles. Dog heaven!

An Ice Bar? In London?


Welcome to icebar by icehotel! Located in belowzero!

First off all I could think was wow. This bar is kept at an apparent -5°C although when went it was a -9, rather chilly! The whole bar, seats, tables and even your glass is made of ice. It is definitely a unique experience! 

On arrival you are told to go and wait in belowzero,a perfect time to add any extra jumpers and get a drink. Once called over, you have a little talk about what will happen, and then before you know it a thermal poncho is thrown on and you're in a giant freezer. 
I had a lovely time, we had a great group of people who were friendly and quite happy to take pictures, although I suppose that could be hit and miss. There is a slight lack of sitting space however.

The drinks are probably made a whole lot better by the surrounding and I would recommend getting a champagne cocktail for your second drink! There was a large choice of cocktails. These cocktails came in a ice glass, yes, a glass made completely of ice. Rather interesting because the heat from your lips slightly melts the ice! Plus due to everything else being made of ice, the glasses seemed to like to slid away (CATCH THAT GLASS).
Over all a super cool (pun intended) experience that was so much fun! I would recommend wearing warm clothes, while the poncho works, it doesn't cover your legs or feet (I did feel very sorry for the girl in flip flops). I personally plan on going back!

OOTD - Dog Walking

I'm all for this kind of outfit, one in which I have been able to wear to meet my friends for lunch and a spot of shopping, yet comfy and practical enough to be able to walk the pooch too!

What I'm wearing:

- T-shirt - While it is hidden away it is a taupe colour and loose fitting, from Forever 21

- Hoodie/Jacket - This knitted hoodie is hugely thick and super warm, I love the pattern going around it! From Superdry

- Jeans - Wine in colour and super soft, Topshop

- Socks - Long black knitted socks

- Shoes - Classic short chestnut UGG's, mine are definitely on the beaten up side as they are so old!

All worn with a super cute pooch on the side!

xoxo
