Stacey's Smiles

 First flowers of February.

A little corner in my room.

Pretty Little Things.  

A delicious breakfast smoothie. Recipe here.

This Jo Malone scent will always remind my of my little sister's graduation. 

Just shopping by really quickly on my lunch break at work today to wish you all a wonderful weekend!!

Mix & Match

H&M Sweater, LC for Kohl's Jeans, Steve Madden Boots, Zara Scarf

These pieces have been on constant rotation in my wardrobe through out this winter and I've mixed and matched them in many outfits, the sweater (here & here), boots(here & here) & scarf(here & here). I really wanted some snow to show up before winter was over but with spring just around the corner I'm preparing to pack away my sweaters for another year!

Valentine's Heart Cookie Bouquet

February is a month to fill with love (even if you're a single girl). These cookie bouquets are perfect a  way to say I love you to anyone special in your life! I made them for a dessert for a family dinner last week!

I got the idea from a recipe from Stacie Bakes. She used a shortcake based biscuit but you can bake your love's favourite type of cookie and just add in the lollipop sticks before baking (make sure to push them in far enough so they don't fall off). Stacie encourages you to have fun with baking and make adaptions to her recipes, so I gave my icing a twist by colouring pink and making it raspberry favoured for a Valentine's theme. Then comes the fun part decorate them anyway you like and then tie them up with ribbon in a bouquet that tastes just as good as it looks!

Layers

J Crew Shirt & Tee, Primark Vest, LC for Kohls Jeans, Chinese Laundry Boots 

Since I spent most of last week at home indoors, I didn't really get dressed properly! This was as dressed up as I got last week and even then it was just comfy layers! This vest was my bargain find in the sales. I was gutted to have missed out a similar J Crew one, so finding this one for just £7 was the perfect substitute.
