New Flat Tour

Hi guys! I'm finally finding some free time to get back into blogging, which i've missed so much. Last time i said i would be giving you all some insight to my new flat, and i've finally got things pretty much the way i want them. There are a few things we still want to add but i'm happy with the way things are looking so far! Just a small warning, this post will be picture heavy so i'm sorry if that's not your thing. 



Our living room and kitchen are joined together, it came with no furniture so we bought and built everything ourselves. The TV cabinet and coffee table are matching and both from Ikea, the mirror is from The Range. I'm insanely in love with our whole flat but this room has to be my favourite. On the right hand side of the bottom picture we have a semi-balcony with beautiful opening Juliette doors. There is so much space in every cupboard which i love, to be honest we're finding it hard to fill them! 





Onto the bedroom. All of the furniture in this room so far is from Ikea, the lamps are from The Range. I love the detail on them, it made the room more brighter but cosy at the same time. All i keep on my bedside table is a book and coaster, along with my makeup wipes because i am so forgetful and by the time i'm in bed i don't want to get out. Our bedside tables are the cutest, they have small handles on them and two shelves, i store books and paperwork in mine. 


Our wardrobe is big, not big enough for both of our things but still big. One side has a mirror and two rails in, the other has shelves where i keep all the folded clothes and shoes. 



On our window ledge i keep all of my jewellery, makeup and makeup brushes. Along with one of my favourite pictures in a beautiful, quirky frames. Our bedroom window overlooks the back of a lot of gardens, it looks beautiful when the sun is out. 


This is in our hallway, it brings something special to a pretty boring space. 

We also have another small bedroom which has things such as washing and winter coats stored in at the minute, Jack's computer is also stored in there. We also have a bath, which i am so happy about. Any of you who know me will know i haven't had a bath because of Uni accommodation for the past two years.

I hope you enjoyed a look around me cosy little home! If you have any idea's of any posts you would like to see, let me know in the comments. I hope you're all having a wonderful Summer so far!

Not Shabby Very Chic November Treatbox

I'm a sucker for all things cute and homeware, so when it comes to Not Shabby Very Chic i am obsessed. I enter all their competitions and always keep updated on their new bits and pieces. So when i heard about their treatbox i was so excited. This isn't going to be a full review, because i'm hoping to be one of the review bloggers for their November box!! (Fingers crossed.)


This is the first thing i saw when i opened my box. I instantly knew i was going to love whatever was inside, i thought it would be cute on my wall with some of my favourite pictures. But i also thought it would look lovely in a frame on a desk or something. The cute light pink bow is wrapped around the package and it's wrapped in black tissue paper so i felt a kind of theme going on with the colours.


When i opened the tissue paper i was greeted by two copies of this lovely letter from Not Shabby Very Chic, such a nice touch. 


Inside was a A5 notebook from a company called Chevron, which i've never heard off. Like homeware i love stationary so this notebook was perfect for me. I love the design and i will probably check it the company out. It's perfect for carrying around in my handbag because i make random lists wherever i am.


This star is one of two (one i ate) lovely sweeties. The cute little note reminded me off Alice In Wonderland and the glitter clips are just fab. A maltesers hot chocolate sachet came in the box too, which happens to be my favourite hot chocolate.


My two favourite things in the box was this little compact mirror with the best quote on, and this candle wax. I don't actually have something i can melt it on, but i guess this is the excuse i needed to buy one!


This little hand warmer is perfect for winter, it's not too small and will perfectly in my coat!


The cutest item in the treatbox was these little notelet envelopes. What's better than getting a lovely message when you're feeling down? Nothing.

I hope you all enjoyed learning about Not Shabby Very Chic, i highly recommend them. What subscription boxes do you guys have??

Love,
Danielle

Homeware and Topshop wishlist

I haven't done a fashion post yet so i'm super excited to write and share this one with you guys. There's not much excitement going on in my wardrobe at the minute, but there are so many things i want to add to it. So i decided to make a wishlist of all the things i have seen and love. As most of you will know from one of my previous posts, Home Haul, i adore homeware. So why not make a wishlist about that too?

I created these images using the app Polyvore, which is amazing if you love to browse and create sets like below. I am totally in love with these homeware pieces. I am obsessed with decorative pillows and flowers for my desk, i can't find any desk flowers which are a decent price right now, so if you know of a place please let me know in the comments! My favourite Disney film is The little Mermaid, so i clearly love mermaids and that statue type one caught my eye instantly. I'm totally into anything copper right now, so i included the lamp, chair and table because, so much lovelyness.


On to the fashion. Everything in the set below is from Topshop, i'm a student so i only shop there when i have enough money to buy a few things because i can't go in and buy one thing, it's too hard. My favourite season Autumn (or Fall to you Americans) is coming soon, so i wanted to pick things which i would wear for it. I'm super excited for berry lips and dark eyes to come back, i'm not going to lie, i don't own any makeup from Topshop but i'm sure that will change very soon because i hear amazing things about it all. I adore cropped jumpers, they are perfect for Autumn and they go with skirts and jeans which i think is fab. 


Let me know in the comments what you love about the sets or what you don't love!! Thanks for reading guys and i hope you enjoyed this kind of different post.

Love, 
Danielle
