Bluewater Haul - LUSH,Yankee & Cath Kidston



Saturday I attended a blogger meet at Bluewater hosted by the gorgeous Julie over at justjulie 
(more to come about the meet in a separate post)
Whats a visit to a huge shopping mall without a little shopping?
So here's what I got...


Cath Kidston plate/tray - £6 each
I've been dying to get my hands on some of these for the girls for ages!
Yankee wax tarts in November rain, black coconut, mackintosh spice, mandarin cranberry and loves me loves me not! ALL 64p each
LUSH - Ickle baby bot, think pink, pop in the bath, karma, dragons egg, strawberry feels forever and avobath.
I went in for 2 specific things and left without them as you do.

I really impressed myself by coming home with money to spare, I'm getting really good as I get older :) 
The old me would walk home if it meant I could spend a little more

LUSH - Ickle baby bot REVIEW by Issy (6)




This review comes with a little twist, this one is brought to you by Issy (6)
Her thoughts are entirely her own and will be written how they were said to me
As she can't exactly review like an adult would,  I've put together some questions to ask :)

What do you love most about Ickle baby bot?
 He makes the bath blue

Would you get mummy to buy it again? If no why?
No, because it only changes the bath light blue with now surprises inside

How does the Ickle baby bot make you feel?
Makes my skin really smooth
Would you buy it from your own pocket money?
Yep for my little sister

Do these bath bombs make your baths more fun?
YES!

If you could change/add anything to Ickle baby bot what would it be?
Make it bigger and a surprise centre maybe some star confetti

The Autumn Tag!

(photo from google)

I've seen this tag all over bloglovin and just had to take part :)

One
Okay we're talking coffees - what's your favourite seasonal drink from Starbucks/Costa/Cafe Nero etc?
I'm pretty boring I don't like coffee so it would be a standard hot chocolate with cream.

Two
Accessories - what do you opt for scarf,boots,gloves?
Ahhh do I really have to pick between boots and scarves? They are both must haves for me whats a warm neck with freezing piggies? I love a good snood but you'll also catch me in boots as soon as the weather gets chilly.

Three
Music - Whats your favourite music to listen to during autumn?
I can't say my music tastes really changes when the weather does BUT as soon as I hear the shops playing Christmas songs I'll be the annoying neighbour singing away with them playing.

Four
Perfume - Whats your favourite scent for this time of year?
My perfume collection is pretty bare right now and in desperate need of a refill, so I guess it would be charlie red as it's the only real one I wear atm, Can always rely on Christmas for a good smellies re stock

Five
Candles - What scents will you be burning this season?
I currently have a fall glory yankee wax tart burning and it smells gorgeous
I have plans to stock up on some Yankee festive scents asap! I loved glades spiced apple air freshener last year I'm hoping I can get it again or a wax tart in the same scent.

Six
What do you love most about Autumn?
Oooh whats not to love? snuggling in the warm while its cold outside, Movie nights feel so much more cosey, knitted jumpers, wooly socks, foggy mornings, nights getting darker earlier, Halloween, Chilly mornings.

Seven
What are you looking forward to most in Autumn?
The leaves changing colour on the trees and leaf crunching on any walks out, I'm like a big kid if I see a leaf that hasn't been crunched I'll go out of my way to go and step on it. Snuggling up with my little family while its cold outside, the bigger dinners.

Just WOW!


Checking my emails as I always do when I get the time to, I noticed an email titled 'You've been nominated as a 2O14 top euro blogger!'
Totally confused I opened it up and was amazed to find this wasn't a spam that hadn't gone to the wrong section at all and there was my face among the other European Mom nominees on the website :)

Thank you so much to whoever it was that felt I deserved a spot among these other amazing mummas!
If you'd like to vote for me and my little blog you can do so 'here'

A huge thank you in advance to anyone who pops by and votes.
