I thought I'd do a round up of my week.
-We're in week three right now at uni and so things have just started to heat up in terms of actually needing to do things. I swear I could not do it were it not for colourful stationery. That might be a bit materialistic but it works. I have on colour for each of my courses and I really love it that by the end of my degree I'll have a rainbow for my bookcase.
-Last year I visited Fortnum and Mason for the first time and oh my goodness I am addicted to their fruit tea. The majority of the time out house are addicted to Lidl Mint tea (actually the best thing ever!) but when things need a little bit of shake up you can't beat a bit of F&T.
-Talking of cheap products which are totally amazing, have you tried the Primark scents lately? They're really nice and fresh.
-I've switched to a more natural hair colour lately so I'm rocking a little bit more of a natural red. Now that it's not so bright red I've been rocking a lot more red. Lipstick, dresses and glasses. I can't get enough of the colour now I don't clash so much.
-Dark chocolate is a life saver right now. I'm trying to eat healthier and cut down on unhealthy snacks but I think I would just collapse if I didn't have treats every now and then.
-It is cooooooold in Edinburgh right now! We have snow and frost and wind so walking to uni had been horrific. These gloves from Tiger have been such a life saver. They are touch gloves so I can use my iphone with them, most touch gloves are really boring colours but Tiger does some really sweet patterns.
-I finished the dark tower series a week or so ago and I'm still reeling! I spent about 6 months reading all 7 books and I just can't get over the fact there's no more to read. I feel totally lost! What do you do when you finish a series? (Also if you haven't read it, you totally should. It's a change-your-life series.)
Such adorable notebooks! I start uni again in a week and I think having my own little rainbow will be the perfect motivation :D
ReplyDeleteI'm a HUGE Stephen King fan and I've read everything except the Dark Tower series! I keep putting it off because it's huge and intimidating, but you're making me want to give it a go!
ReplyDeleteI love your rainbow notebooks so much, that's such a neat idea for the different courses! Cute stationary is definitely a motivator.
Dark chocolate is the best! And I just love the rainbow of notebooks idea :) I'm so ready for August days filled with cheery light until 8 pm. The only tip I have for photos is to wake up early to catch the sun or to save all the picture taking for a weekly 2 pm Saturday photo shoot. Summer can't come soon enough!
ReplyDeletewell, I have wooden walls and take photos sucks XD I take my photos on the bathroom or I put some white or pastel blanket on the wall and then I use flash, is a little hard to live in a dark house, I know..

I had to get spare lamps, but I know some bloggers try to take their photos earlier in the day when it's brighter or right reflective walls (with foil!) for small shoots.

Love the rainbow notebooks. There are actually mini lighting kits you can get on Amazon, etc. that give you a stark white background and great lighting for small scale photoshoots.
