Come with me: Tanya Burr Chocolate Box Studio Event

Yesterday was one of the most exciting days of this year.

I got up bright and early and headed off to Knightsbridge to the Tanya Burr Chocolate Box Studio in Harvey Nichols.

Once there, we were led in groups up to the 5th floor, where we entered into the beautiful and christmassy world of Tanya Burr Cosmetics. The room was done out beautifully, think insta worthy wall displays, a huge Tanya Burr advent Calendar and a TB light-box to get pictures with.

Stands with beautifully produced product displays, showing off the Christmas and Selfie Story ranges lined the outside of the room, whilst make up artist stands stood in the center, where we had our very own TB make over.

I will do a separate review of my goodie bag products and a break down of the ranges, but I will just comment on the longevity of these products, which is incredible. I had my make up done at about 10 am and it lasted all day, whilst I strolled London got the train and did obligatory shopping. It also took me on a night out last night too, with just a powder touch up!

Tanya also had her very own Truffle stand, with a gorgeous array of chocolate delights!

I was super lucky to make a friend in Carmen, whilst at the event, who I had so much in common with. I love finding like minded people and we laughed the morning away, and even had a cheeky look around Harvey Nichols afterwards, before going for coffee (think pumpkin spice flat white in pret).

I'm definitely one of those people who gets excited at the small things and trying the new pumpkin spice flat white in Pret was one of them. I was so pumped to try it and although I'm not sure it competes with the pumpkin spice latte from starbs, it was lovely.

I hope you enjoy a few photos from the day! Pop back Tuesday for my goodie bag review and a break down of the new Tanya Burr range!

Happy Sunday Lovelies xx

Disney Pandora UK Launch

 Alrighty, where do I start?

 I could barely contain my excitement when I saw my friend had tagged me in the launch of Disney Pandora in the UK, over on Facebook.

Ever since I did well in my 1st year uni exams 3 years ago, mum had said she would get me something to congratulate me, but nothing has ever been right.

I am so glad I didn't rush into getting any gift, as nothing is more perfect than the charm I picked up. Its blue, so goes with my other charms. It has a quote on it, and you know how much I love my quotes, and its Cinderella my mummas fave Disney princess.

Disney Cinderella Dream Charm

Of course I've included picks of the super cute Disney packaging because if you're anything like me then you need to be able to admire its beauty 

The Pandora Disney Range

Lets take a glimpse at whats in the range:

To make things even more exciting you get a free limited addition pouch if you spend over £99, plus there are whispers that Frozen and Lilo and Stitch are also making their way over to the uk. 

 Which is your favorite Disney charm? 

P.S. whilst writing this I definitely had tale as old as time going round and round in my head :')

Motivational Monday- If you can dream it you can do it

Every-time I publish one of these posts I cant believe its the start of another week. I can not believe that we are already in October...How did that happen?

Today I wanted to keep it short and sweet.  Often we are in such a rush to achieve our goals quickly that we loose sight of the small progress that we make, and the small but significant success's we achieve.

Progress doesn't happen overnight. We dont always see the results straight away, but that doesn't mean we should give up, or that we are not succeeding.

In fact making progress slowly means that you can learn so much as you go along.

Slow progress is the most sustainable. It allows you to make adjustments and improvements as you go, making the end results even better.

Comment below your goals, and what you hope to achieve this October!
So no matter what is going on in your life that you wish was happening faster, dont give up keep going, and enjoy the success when it comes .

Fashion Anti Haul-5 Trends Ill be giving a miss this fall.

NEON-Loving a pop of colour, and certainly not one to shy away from adding colour to my wardrobe but neon, it just doesn't work for me. Pale skin really doesn't lend itself to incredibly strong neon colours so this trend will be staying safe in my stationary draw, taking the form of some bloomin' great scented highlighters.

*

WHITE BOOTS- Chic and cool and one I wish would suit my size 6 feet. Alas god didn't bless me with the smallest of feet. A pair of white boots just doesn't do a size 6 any favors when it comes to trying to look petit. Therefor I will be keeping this as a trend I admire but maybe dont wear.

*

VINTAGE FLORAL-A trend I love but have overdone. Instead this fall I'm far more into check, and pop art block colour pieces-just as long as they arent neon!

*

DUVET COAT-This is one I feel I should love as I'm permanently cold. But I just feel like a spaceman every-time I put on a super padded coat.

*

METALLIC-This is a super futuristic trend, and looks great styled with space buns and pastel colours, but for me its not a trend that I  shop that often. 

What do you make of these trends? Will you be wearing them this autumn or giving them a miss?Comment below!
