Erin Condren Planner 2016

I have spent a lot of time thinking about which planner to get for 2016, and when my current planner broke the decision on whether to get an 18 month diary was made for me.

I looked around on the market and decided this year to give the Erin Condren planner a go. I have never anything from Erin Condren before, but I had seen a lot of reviews and this seemed like the right one for me. I ordered a few extra goodies to go with it, and then waited for with excitement for it to arrive, and I have to say overall I was not disappointed the planner is beautiful the pages are a good weight, and there are some beautiful features.

If you want to see a full review and to have a look inside then click the video below and I'll go through it with you in full detail.

If you are interested in getting an Erin Condren planner then have a look at the website, they don't just stock diaries, they have all sorts, wedding planners, teacher planners, back to school stationary the lot - erincondren.com

As always any questions just let me know in a comment below.

More videos will be coming from me over the next coming weeks so keep your eyes peeled!

And remember, keep smiling.

Chill Out Session

This weekend I have decided to give myself more of a weekend off. I have been working very hard recently, particularly over the last week and I wanted to have some 'down' time to regroup and refresh myself ready for the busy time I know I have coming up.

I have recently been studying, working full time, and trying to get back into the swing of making YouTube videos. But this weekend, after a manic week, I just wanted to take the time to sit and do things which I haven't done in a long time or have neglected  through lack of spare time. I have found myself going through old photographs and organising them into ones which I want to display in my home, and ones which I want to keep in an album. This then got me onto thinking about scrapbooking. Something which I have always wanted to do but never have. I have just ordered a scrapbook, so I am hoping that over the next couple of weekends I will be able to sit down and create my own scrapbook/album of all my best memories.

I have also found (what I hope is) a really nice journal, which I want to use separately to keep all my old tickets and receipts in from good times, as soon it arrives I will post a picture and give a review.

I think this is a project which could become somewhat of a love affair, I really love my planner and having a planner on the go and lists. I feel scrapbooking could become the elite of all of these.

I'll let you know how I am getting on!

I hope you are having a lovely weekend.

Primark Haul

I decided it was time I joined the revelation (although I am a little late to the party!) of Haul Videos on YouTube.

Apparently (and stats are backing this up) these types of videos amongst the most popular in the beauty community. So I decided that since we are all so nosey (myself included) I would film a Primark Haul just so everyone on the internet could see exactly what I decided to buy myself in Primark this month, and so far you seem to be loving this idea!

So for those of you who haven't seen it yet here it is:

Granted this thumbnail isn't the best... I am working on updating these though! This one keeps cutting down to just the section of me pulling weird faces.. but I am sure we can all live with that!

Anyway got to go... studying to do!

Hope you all have a lovely weekend, and remember as always...

Keep Smiling
