Earl Grey & Lavender tea Autumn skies
Lovely notebook print New dress from Cow
Love Pete McKee's artwork Yay free chocolate
The past few weeks have a bit here and there. I went back to Lincoln for the day the other Saturday to pick up something I had forgotten and met up with Luke. I arrived a little early so sat in one of my favourite shops/cafe Rock Paper Scissors with a pot of Earl Grey & lavender tea. It was literally the best tea I've ever had and the shop is so cosy. Definitely one of my favourite places in Lincoln.
You can definitely tell that Autumn is here with how the sky is beginning to look. I took this the other day walking home because the cloud formation was beautiful when the sun was setting. Can't wait for Autumn and Winter.
I'm in love with this gorgeous notebook I purchased at the 44 shop in Lincoln. It's the quaintest little shop full of beautiful stationery and household items. Me and my friends visit it at least once a week and I always want to buy everything. On this particular visit I purchased this notebook but have no idea what to use it for... It seems too nice to use for my university modules... Any suggestions?!
I've been visiting Cow so many times in the last month and trying lots of different clothes on. I found this gorgeous rose dress and it fits perfectly so I had to buy it.
I walked past this artwork by Pete Mckee the other day. Pete is a Sheffield artist who does some amazing work. I'm tempted to purchase his Periodic Table of Sheffield Dialect print for my uni room.
A few weeks ago I discovered The Raw Chocolate Company online and after being intrigued by their products, decided to get in contact with them. To my surprise they said they'd be happy to send me some of their chocolate to review. This bar and their chocolate mulberries have been my favourites so far. I still have a few more of their bars to try so a review will be up shortly.
The other day I went to try Mac's Morange lipstick as I really wanted it. After trying it on it looked hideous on me and didn't suit me at all. I'm quite iffy with lipsticks and prefer matte ones, so with Morange being glossy it put me off it even more. I was quite disappointed but after going to Illamasqua & seeing Eurydice (featured in a previous Weekly Wantings post) I asked to try it on. The woman was so kind and applied it herself with a lip brush which surprised me. All of their lipsticks are matte but feel so creamy when applied so I bought it immediately. The first picture doesn't show off it's bright fuchsia colour but in the second one you can see it's true colour and finish. It doesn't dry your lips out and lasts for a very long time.
All in all to be honest the past few weeks have been slightly dull. On Wednesday I'm back to Lincoln to finally begin my last year and am looking forward to it. I want to be busy and tired and rushed off my feet (not many people say that haha). I feel like I need something to commit to and focus on.
How has your week been?
