Apple Store
Sometimes you just don’t want to take your laptop out with you to
meetings or trainings because it’s too bulky, but you want a bigger screen than
your phone to work with. Why am I trying to justify myself to you? I wanted an
iPad so I bought an iPad. An iPad Pro 9.7in 32GB in Rose Gold to be precise.
And a Smart Keyboard. Oops! But the keyboard does act as a cover too so it’s
dual purpose. It was brilliant for watching Emmerdale
and Once Upon a Time in bed when my
mum was on holiday. I will of course mainly be using it for Younique and Girlguiding
trainings though. Not entertainment. Nooooooo, not at all...
Blurt Foundation Print
I am still building up a lovely collection of things to go on my
Happy Wall and the latest is a beautiful A4 print from their Winston’s
Adventures collection called Playing in the Rain. The Blurt Foundation has an
office dog called Winston who is the inspiration behind the prints and I was
drawn to this one because of my love of the rain. Now I really need to get myself to IKEA to pick up some frames.
The Christmasaurus
Yes, I know it’s a children’s novel, but it’s written by one of my
favourite people and it’s about Christmas so I had to buy it. I also had
to go to the book signing and get it signed. I haven’t read it yet. I’m saving
it for December when the Christmas vibe really hits, but it’s sitting on my
Fletcher shelf (yes, I have a Fletcher shelf!) ready.
Clothes
The discovery that I can once again fit into a size 12 has led to
me going a little crazy with the clothing purchases of late. This month I have
bought another set of pyjamas from George at Asda as well as a nightshirt,
leggings, skirt (possibly my favourite purchase this month!), poncho and hairbands. I
also got some more hairbands from Cath Kidston and a few basic tops, a head scarf
and a beanie from New Look. I love wearing beanies in winter and at the moment
they are doubling up to hide my fringe which I’m currently growing out.
Disney Store
Last weekend my friend and I went to London and we had a bit of time to kill so we had a quick wander down Oxford Street. I saw the Disney Store and my eyes lit up like a child at Christmas. Even more so when I went in because it was full of, well, Christmas stuff. I ended up purchasing a Christmas Mickey and Minnie, a Christmas jumper and a tree decoration. When I was at the till the cashier wrapped up my decoration to protect it and secured it with a BB8 sticker. I joked that I'd have to take it off really carefully as I love BB8 and so she put some extra in my bag.
Glasses Holder
I nearly bought one of these when I was in Barcelona in May, but I was so tight on luggage space that I didn't bother. When I saw it in Pylones in London at the weekend I knew I had to get it. It's an owl, it's pink and it's useful! What's not to love? He's going to live on my bedside table and look after my glasses at nighttime.

I have wanted one of these for so
long and then I saw someone post a pic of theirs on Facebook so I asked where
she got it and she directed me to Very’s website. It was only £14.99 which is
the cheapest I’ve seen one of these. In the short time I’ve had it, it has been
used for inspirational quotes, Younique promotions and Christmas countdowns. I
love it! I already need extra letters though so if you know where I can get some, please let me know in the comments.
Yankee Candle
I love a candle, particularly if it is of the Yankee variety. I’ve
wanted a shade and tray for the medium and large candles for ages, but I wanted
to wait until my room was finished so I could get one that worked with the decor.
Ever the difficult person I also wanted one that was suitably Christmassy, but
not so Christmassy that I couldn’t have it out all year round. I ended up
choosing the Starry Night Large Shade & Tray Set and then proceeded to impulse
buy a set of two Medium Jar Candles at the till.
Younique
I could not resist the Kudos for October as Younique decided to
celebrate the release of their new Splash Liquid Lipsticks buy offering any
three shades for £57 and chucking in a Lip Exfoliator for free. I chose the
Sizzling, Soulful and Stoic to add to the Sentimental that came in my Presenter
Kit. I also got the Opulence Lipstick in Conceited and the Royalty Detoxifying
Mask as I’m trying to put time aside to pamper myself more often. Then at the UK 2nd Anniversary event last weekend, we got a goodie bag with Splash in Smashing and Splurge in Happy.
