Dreaming Of A White February

It snowed! Finally! But then it stopped and now it's just icy and horrible. But at least we've had a bit of snow. Once again, the lighting was lovely and my lovely, kind, really thoughtful boyfriend (I'm being paid to say this*) was nice enough to take a few pictures. And once again my outfit wasn't too special, but more on the comfortable side. It was my day off, so we ran a couple of errands, and it was so nice to finally have a long lie-in! I'll do my FOTD in a separate post, because I took quite a few pictures. (*That's a joke, just in case anyone wondered)

The Calm Before The Snow

Bag: Pronti

Necklace: The French Connection, ASOS

It was such a lovely day on Saturday, I practically forced my boyfriend to take a few snaps of my outfit, not that it was anything too special, but just because the lighting was great. I've been sticking to jumpers and leggings this winter, as it's comfortable but not without effort, like staying in joggers or jimjams. Which, believe me, I would love to be in all day, but can't. I put on a bit of MAC's Painpot in Indianwood, which is a big favourite of mine, the eyeliner is Urban Decay's 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in Zero and the mascara is Maybellines The Colossal Volum' Express. Simples! I haven't been wearing much make-up during the week and felt like doing something special to my eyes.  I find that when I wake up early, my eyes hurt and feel quite heavy if I put on make-up.

Update, Fish & Future Giveaway

Hey guys! I haven't blogged in a while...again. Who would have thought working in a pharmacy would be so exhausting? Oh wait, I did know that. I came home last night and immediately fell asleep. At 18:30! I usually only sleep in the day (because 18:30 is still 'day' to me) when I'm ill. Anyway, exhaustion aside, working in a pharmacy has many benefits, not only do I get paid well (yay!, I also get a few freebies! Which you wouldn't expect from a pharmacy: "Here, have some free paracetamol!". We get free beauty products, like face creams, or make-up remover, when we order a bunch of stuff. Which is great, because I get to try out a bunch of new products, and let's face it, who doesn't love freebies? 

So I've been very busy, and whenever I have free time I spend it asleep or in the shower. Time is being really weird lately, though. It's only Wednesday but feels like Friday. 

Last Sunday, my boyfriend and I celebrated our 2 year anniversary by going to an aquarium, which is a bit random but we like going to Zoos and stuff so why leave out fish?, and then going to a Chinese restaurant. I can't believe it's been two years! It's really strange, it feels like the two years have gone so quickly, but then I think about our memories together and it seems so long ago. Anyway, we went to France, Amnéville to be precise, which is a 40 minute drive from where I live, and when we got there it started to snow! Which was the icing on the cake, and made our day even better. 

We'd also been there the previous weekend with my brother, as Amnéville is a sort of Jack of all trades kind of place. It has a zoo, an aquarium, a bowling alley, a huge cinema, an indoor skiing place,... Basically, a lot of different activities. My back had been hurting quite a bit, so my boyfriend suggested we go to this sort of swimming pool/spa and my brother decided to tag along. I felt so good afterwards! It has a a few different saunas, jacuzzis and loads of massaging things. I really suck at explaining things, but I'll add the website here so you can see what I'm on about. So worth it!

That just about sums up what I've been up to these last few weeks, and I am planning a giveaway, perhaps when I reach 55 readers or when it's my blog's three month anniversary (15th February!), I'll make my mind up soon, don't worry! I've already got some bits that I want to give away, it's so exciting, like Christmas all over again!
