Christmas Markets


For my first blog post I thought I would do a little Christmas tourist one by showing you what me and Nathan (my fiancé) got up to at the York Christmas markets. We went on the train which took about an hour (I think) and £20 each return. Of course, the first thing we did when we got off the train was find the nearest costa for a cup of tea as it was so cold. I tried the lindt hot chocolate as it's my favourite chocolate but didn't like it, yet Nathan who hates lindt loved it? 

We then tried looking on google for somewhere to go for breakfast but ended up going in the Slug and Lettuce which I’d heard good things about. I don’t know if they were having an off day but we weren’t impressed. The cups were dirty and the full English breakfast wasn’t that yummy. At least we got some cute pictures.  

Whenever me and Nathan go anywhere we like to google places for inspiration on what to see, where to eat, coffee shops etc.
We did some shopping in the normal shops and then went into the markets where we bought three cute tree decorations which were 3 for £5, really cheap and the quality is amazing!

Then we found the Harry Potter shop ‘the shop that must not be named.’ AHHHH! When we seen this had opened earlier this year in York we were so excited to go. I love the Harry Potter films and Nathan is a mega fan so we were like two little kids. A lot of the stock was things I hadn’t see before which I was surprised at but it was really unique and such a cool idea!

Although we both don't really drink often, we couldn't not go and have a cocktail. I'd seen a lot of people on Instagram go to two popular ones, so we thought we would try both; The Botanist and The Evil Eye Lounge. 
Cocktail Menu
The cocktails in the botanist were amazing! There were in the pots and planters section of the menu and £7.50 each. I've added a link on the picture to the menu if you want to have a look. Overall we had an amazing day full of fun, festivity and FOOD! Would recommend York Christmas markets 100%.  

Love,

6 WAYS TO PASS THE TIME IN AN AIRPORT

6 WAYS TO PASS THE TIME IN AN AIRPORT  What an amazing quote I found on tumblr.  Hey guys and girls, today's post is all about how to pass the time when waiting in an airport. Airports are usually busy places and usually incur some waiting time even without delays. For someone who adores aviation like myself, airports are fascinating. However, even I can't be entertained by watching the aircraft for too long!   Firstly for instagrammers and bloggers or anyone who enjoyes social media, taking that airport picture is essential.  For some down time after the running around, checking in and security, it's sometimes nice to just sit and watch the workers doing there thing outside. If you get a good window seat you can sit and watch the aircraft take off. Not for everyone but relaxing to some. Next up is the magazine reads. I'm not one for gossip mags and things that like as half the time it's all made up! However, give me a wedding magazi...

Holiday Superdrug Order Review - Makeup Revolution, Pro and The Gypsy Shrine

Hey everyone! hope you're all okay, I know for any students (like myself) it's exam and deadlines week which means 50 cups of tea a day and unimaginable amounts of stress BUT we will do it. So to make myself feel better I ordered a Superdrug order because online shopping is the always the answer. We go on holiday at the start of June so wanted a couple of holiday makeup bits and also got 2 freebies which was a bonus, so lets get started! First of all we have this revolution hyaluronic fix hydrating and plumping makeup fixing spray which was £6. Now the only setting spray I've used is the urban decay all-nighter one but I didn't wanna take that one away with me and just wanted a cheaper one that I could overuse on the sweating holiday nights. I've not heard anything about this one and just seen it so I thought why not I might as well try it and I've used it a couple of times not and I'm loving it, especially on my brushes. Next up are ...
