Weekend in Cornwall!

Morning Sunshine, Cute Little Cottage on the Harbour, Yummiest Dessert Ever Invented, View back onto the Harbour :) 

So my family have this annual family get together, and this year i did my good dead and attended the weekend, whilst killing two birds with one stone in visiting my accommodation for September.  myself and my mam & dad travelled  Friday night failing to dodge the horrific April showers we've been getting recently but arriving at my Aunties by tea time:) best time of day! i just love chilling out and relaxing with family catch-ups and reminsing!  Saturday morning i woke to this beautiful weather, making the view even more amazing, (also sunday was like this!) so a trip down to falmouth was the main reason for me going, but im so glad i did go, i think i really needed a little break from all the stresses in my everyday routine, and a weekend in Cornwall definitely perked me up.  im not a huge countryside lover, but when the sea is put in the picture, it turns into my best friend, an nothing can beat sitting by the sea just listening to the seaguls.. just praying one doesn't poop on your head!  so sunday was our designated family day, and by family day i mean going back to Boscastle for the best ice cream and sweet shop in Cornwall! their chocolate covered honeycombe.. amazeballs!  but i have also discovered that they now possibly do the best dessert ever! Malteaser and white chocolate cheesecake!  if you ever go to Boscastle, you must go to The Riverside for this delish dessert!  that was pretty much my weekend, minus the obvious shopping splurge in Falmouth, but that will be in my next post :)  wheres your ideal place? seaside? hustle and bustle of the city?

What I Bought...

 

a trip to Cribbs Causeway is always a successful trip!  always find some bargains once i got something like 5 bras for £8 and the other day i got £1 giraffe necklace down from £9!! These are a few of my buys, a very random selection i know, but all necessities! of course my monthly purchase of the bible that is Elle! i have got round to reading it yet, but i think a nice hot chocolate and some biscuit tonight should help me get started :)

the giraffe necklace.. OMG, how cute?? for the £1 price tag there was no-way it was staying there!!  im a huge fan of the accessorize sale, i nearly always find a bargain, but like in any sale you get your dodgy items chucked in for good measure.. not always the best.  so when i saw it was down from £9 i was looking for faults, miss-colouring, a broken chain.. nothing! it was in perfect condition, result!

this winter weather has really dried out my skin this year. i never usually suffer with my skin in cold weather but this year my skin has been a real play up, cracking from all angles :( so investing in a good moisturiser was a total must this week!  i'm trying out these Vitamin E products by Superdrug, I bought an All over Body Cream and a Hand & Nail Cream, so far im impressed! they are definitely living up to the '12 hour moisture' tag, and they smell amazing!! even better :)

i've been eyeing up this skirt for aaaaages! i saw it the same time as this skirt, but the difference is i finally bought this skirt!! i say this with my head in my hands, but that was actually my first RI clothing purchase.. i've had plenty of jewellery and shoes from there but never clothing!  but im pretty chuffed with my first RI buy:) i love the Aztec print and the 'short at the front long at the back' will really work for summer nights out! yaaay!!


Sudacrem. Sudacrem. Sudacrem... i absolutely swear by this! its amazing for spots.  i've been using for about a year now, and i've just run out of a 10g free sample pot! yes a year!!  so little goes so far with sudacrem. i'd recommend it to anybody who suffers with the occasional breakout to consistent acne. thats why i invested in the epic sized 250g tub for only £4! im gunna have years im sure...

enough of my babbling! i'll do an outfit post of my new skirt soon, maybe this afternoon, just see how my school work goes :)

Much Love
