10% Off & Free Shipping at HM.com

I had an email and a voucher in the post yesterday from HM.com offering 10% off and free shipping until March 4th with the code '9756'. I don't always take advantage of the 10% off because unless I'm ordering a few things It's cheaper for me to get them in store, after paying the added shipping price! This time I took advantage of the 10% off, every little helps! Here are my top picks from HM.com right now!



I love this cardigan in the pink and the cream! I tried it on here.

Let's Get Crafty: Big Bamboo Wool Scarf

I decided to put my new knitting skills to the test with a scarf after I saw this Big Bamboo wool. I made it with only a little bit of help, I haven't mastered casting on yet! I had a hard time choosing a colour so I think I might go back and get some more wool and make another one!


Just a note, you only need to cast on 13 stitches





I think I do a good job for my first attempt, I was so proud of my scarf I wore it out for lunch on Sunday!

Stacey's Smiles :)

This week has gone super quick which is a good thing because I can not wait for a lay in on Sunday morning, a 6 day work week was not what I needed after a long exhausting weekend! But the wedding was so awesome it's kept me going all week!


I also came home to a little package from Japan on my lunch break on Monday morning! Thank You Susie!


I got to see my sister last weekend too! She let Anna and I crash at her house on Friday night so we didn't have to drive all the way to Bristol in one go! I'll be seeing her again in a few weeks for a little break!


My favourite Easter treat now comes in a cute mini size!


And I'm sure you've read all the reviews on the Revlon Lip Butters! They're finally hitting UK shelves next month and you can now sign up here to get on the waiting list!

Amy & Dan's Wedding

The first of my close friends got married last weekend and it meant all of us were together again! It was beautiful wedding and the bride looking stunning! The wedding had so many cute personal touches I loved the sweet bags we got to take home (or eat while we were there). I still can't believe one of my friends is now a MRS!!!

I borrowed some of these pictures from Facebook since I only had my iPhone with me.

















The next morning was breakfast and then goodbyes! Can't wait to see everyone again soon!






Congratulations Amy & Dan!!!

Happy Pancake Day

It's Pancake Day (or Shrove Tuesday) and I had some yummy pancakes waiting for me when I came home for lunch today! I love a classic lemon and sugar pancake!


But after all the pancakes it's time to give up something for lent tomorrow, and since I snack on way too many biscuits at work, I will be giving them up this year and taking some healthy fruit with me to snack on instead! And I'm only going to eat chocolate on the weekends! What are you all giving yup for lent this year??

Just popping in quickly to say bye guys, I'm off to Bristol for Amy's wedding! This time the bride won't be swinging from the trees like the last time I got to hang out with all my favourite girls! I'm excited to be reunited with old school friends and some new friends we made last time, plus some of my best guy friends will be there dressed up in their suits!! I cannot wait!!!



I'll be back with a full report next week, and I'm sure this weekend will keep me smiling through a tough week at work that I'm gonna face!!
