Christmas Gifting with CaseApp



Last year you might remember I teamed up with CaseApp and got to design my dream iPhone case! So I was super excited when they reached out about teaming up again. 

This year I decided that I wanted to spread the love and let one of my besties pick out a case she loved, it is the season for giving after all. She picked put this gorgeous green leaf design and kept it simple without personalising it. 

One thing I love is that you can design your case from scratch from using your own artwork or a photograph you love, but if you aren't feel super creative you can pick out one of CaseApp's own designs or one from an artist and leave it just as it is or add your own initials or wording. 

You might notice my marble doesn't look like the marble one online here, that's because you can even edit where the marble (or other design) lays on your phone by flipping it or dragging it. I didn't want such a white space so edited mine to give a more all over marble pattern. 

Everything from CaseApp is customisable from beginning to start and they make such lovely personalised gifts to give this time of year. I always love to try and find unique gifts for my loved ones. And a truly individual one of a kind phone case is something I am sure anyone would love to receive and they even come with a cute little storage pouch now. 


CaseApp is kindly offering my readers 20% off their order with the code 'SPARK1988'. Be sure to tag me in your designs on Instagram if you design your own case! And if you head over to my Instagram today you'll have the chance to win your very own CaseApp product!

American Eagle/Aerie Try on Haul



I have loved doing these little try on hauls again this year! I use to do them years ago when I started blogging and I'm not really sure why I stopped doing them. Last month when American Eagle was having a sale I picked up  few things that I had had my eye on for a while and thought I would share them all with you as they are currently having another huge sale with everything 40% off right now!  It's the perfect time to stock up! I have already placed another order, and I've linked some of those items at the end of the post for you. I am most excited to receive this Jegging Pullover which I wish I had ordered before after seeing it on Lynzy, you can see her try on here.

I wanted to pick up this henley earlier in the year but it was sold out. I was so happy to see it back in stock so added it to my order. It also comes in a pretty pink colour. This one is more a beige oatmeal colour in real life than the picture on the website. It runs true to size but if you wanted it to be long enough to wear with leggings I would size up!

I fell in love with this sweatshirt as soon as I put it on and I have actually ordered it in more colours now. It reminds me a lot of the sweaters from H&M I have been wearing this Autumn, in that it is long enough to wear with leggings and is longer in the back. This one is thicker, but not too thick and the fabric is way more snuggly and soft. I stuck with my normal size as I am taller, so I could wear it with leggings but you could size down as it runs bigger. I actually ordered another colour in a medium so it's extra slouchy for lounging around in. 
P.S I have just spied Bella in the background, I haven't grown a tail!

Can you tell I am loving all the plush pieces? You really can't go wrong with anything from the Soft & Sexy line, it's so so soft and warm. I got this basic for layering and I wish I had actually sized up in this so it was a bit longer on me. It's still great for pairing with jeans and if you are shorter than me perfect for wearing with leggings.

This was the piece I was most excited to arrive. I had seen it on a few bloggers {I loved it on Lauren} in a bunch of colours. It was hard to pick just one which is why I ended up with two, whoops! It didn't disappoint and is really warm and cozy. I actually threw this on straight out of the parcel and forgot to cut the tag out before I left the house lol! It's that good. I would say it runs big and you could size down but I stuck with my normal size so I could wear it with jeans and leggings {like in my post here}!

This colour is actually my favourite of the two I purchased. It's called mustard but it's this beautiful bright burnt orange colour and just screams Fall. I hadn't seen anything else this kind of colour and loved how different it was.

I also wanted to mention the Aerie Softest Lace Bralette I picked up too. I have been hunting and hunting for a cute bralette and just haven't found one that I liked or that fit well. Aerie has a huge range of sizes so I decided to give one of theirs a go and it is the best bralette I have ever tried. I ordered black and have already gone back for a white one too, and oh maybe a deep plum as well! 

I hope you enjoyed this little haul and I will share my next order when it comes in with you all if you like too.

Whoops I totally forgot to hit publish on this post last week so here it is for you all! 

I meant to share our Autumn home decor with you all earlier in the season but I am only now getting round to snapping some pictures. Whilst everyone else is probably excited for Christmas now I'll be spending a couple more weeks at least enjoying all the colours of Fall before they disappear for another year. 
I like to change our decor up by switching out things like pillows and blanket, prints and candles. As you can probably tell from this post I love to find pieces in T.K. Maxx and Homesense {this isn't a sponsored post I just love shopping there}. They always have such a affordable pieces and a huge choice. We kept things pretty neutral this Autumn with juts a few pops of oranges and reds and a hint of gold! I love using blankets to add in some texture and they're perfect for the cold evenings and we have a huge stash of pumpkin candles that will probably keep us going through next Fall too!
