There were loads of amazing demonstrations going on, music by a Michael Buble tribute and of course some serious discount across the counters! There was beauty quiz to take part in to win more goodies and on purchases over £50, you will be entered into a prize draw to win another amazing prize. 

First, I checked out the Chanel demonstration where they were using some of their new and bestselling products to create a lovely everyday look! There's always Chanel consultants and specialists up on the counter who can help you with their amazing products! 

I then went for a browse around the beauty department to check out some of the amazing beauty products John Lewis have to offer. They stock so many incredible brands and have such a huge selection of products and wonderful partners to help you make the right purchase. They have a great selection of gift sets and Christmas gifts that you could stock up on, why not start shopping for those Christmas Gifts?

Back on the beauty department the lovely rituals lady was demonstrating the new Ritual of Ayurveda range! It smells incredible and there's loads of different products in the collection! I absolutely love the rituals foaming shower gels!! 

The Final demonstration was by Liz Earle and they had some impressive gifts to share! They started by sharing their essentials kit which includes some of Liz Earle's best sellers including their Award winning Cleanse and Polish and their lovely Superskin Moisturiser. The Relaxing Rituals skincare set is lovely and definitely on my wish list this Christmas. There's some amazing deals on the Liz Earle bundles so be sure to head over to the counter and check them out! 

Overall I had a wonderful evening and really hope some of you can check out the My John Lewis beauty weekend in store or online for some great savings! 

Mothers Day 2017 - Sunday 26th March 

With Mothers Day just around the corner I thought today i'd share some Mothers Day gift ideas!

I don't know about you but my mom is pretty amazing, and I always go a little over the top when Mothers Day arrives. Here's some really cool gift ideas that you can get your mom this year. 

How gorgeous are these Ted Baker Rose Gold Earrings *from Amara. I think they are stunning and would make the perfect gift for Mothers Day, They come with a little pouch and a Ted Baker Gift box which makes it look really special and they are only £25 which I think is a great price. This Scarf from Joules * also available at Amara is just gorgeous, it's so so soft and the colours are lovely. It's a really lovely scarf, my mom loves a good scarf and these are perfect for this transitional period between winter and spring where its a bit chilly outside so you want a thin scarf just to keep the cold out. You really can't go wrong with flowers, whether you pick some up from the local supermarket or have them delivered from a florist they can make a wonderful gift. My mom loves Lillies they are her favourite and purple is her favourite colour so these are perfect. 

My mom has recently started using make up brushes and has been quizzing myself and my sister on how we apply our make up so some new make up brushes would be the perfect gift this mothers day. These Body Shop* ones are so lovely. The bristles are so lovely and soft and they are so easy to use. They look great and are really affordable too. I've also included a couple of other brushes below. I really like the Look Good Feel Better Brushes and this blusher brush* looks amazing. The bristles are so soft and fluffy!! I also thought i'd mention this Soeco stippling brush* as I really like the Soeco brushes they look fab, i've recently spotted them in my local Bodycare and they are really good value for money. 

Why not get your mom some new skincare bits. I love Liz Earle and use their skincare everyday and I know my mom would love to add some Liz Earle bits to her routine. This is the Liz Earle Glow Getters collection.* For £29 you get the Hot Cloth Cleanser ( MY FAVE) and a gentle face exfoliator and a deep cleansing mask along with 2 Pure Cotton cloths. It's such a good price and comes in this gorgeous gift box which is designed by Jessica Tibbits.

How cute is this Mothers Day soap from The English Soap Company*, it's a really lovely gift. It smells so so good!! How cute is this gift set from The Pretty Little Treat Company. This is their Pretty Little Treasures Gift set *which contains really cute little products such as an Eye Gel, a Lip Balm, a Hand Cream and bath milk. The gift box is so pretty and the packging on the products has angels on and Clints mom loves Angels so she's going to be so excited to recieve this on Mothers Day. 

If your looking for something a little more on the pricey side you could treat your mom to a bottle of perfume, this Tiziana Terenzi Fragrance * is avaliable at Harvey Nichols and is a woody, spicy oriental scent. It's really strong and has top notes of Bergamot and Red Currant. The bottle and the packaging is gorgeous and so luxurious and would make a lovely addition to any moms dressing table. 

You really can't go wrong with a scented candle and my favourites are the Neom Travel Size candles. I love Tranquility and Happiness, they are my favourite scents. They retail for about £16 and smell amazing! 

How cool is this Scrabble Light from Red Candy*! You use the stickers to spell out different words, they would be so much fun especially to personalise for different occasions. They light up from the mains and the stickers are reusable so you can change them all the time to say different things. I think these would be amazing in a nursery or kids room aswell as in a main room. 

I hope you enjoyed my Gift Guide and I gave you some inspiration for Mothers Day. Even if you can't afford to buy your mom something get her a card and show her that you are thankful for everything she does for you. 

Hello 2017

I haven't blogged for a little while as I took a break from blogging over the holidays as I was working and spending time with the family. I'm back now and have lots of ideas for 2017.

I thought i'd show you guys what I got for Christmas, I don't want this to appear braggy I just like these types of posts and videos and thought you may want to see what I got.

First up can we talk about these make up brushes, They are by Zoeva and they came in this cute pouch and they are this gorgeous blush pink colour with rose gold hardwear. I love them so so much, these were a gift from my sister. 

 I actually bought the Olivia Burton watch in the sales from John Lewis, It was only £40 which is a bargain and I used my Christmas money to get this. 

Next I got alot of perfume for Christmas, I had asked for perfume as I have run out of all my faves. My mom and dad got me Victor and Rolf Bon Bon, I love it so much! Clint bought me my favourite Ysl Black Opium and Clint's parents got me two bottles of Ari by Arianna Grande and also a John Paul Gaultier gift set ( which I forgot to photograph)

How cute is this little to do list pad, I always make lists and this is just so perfect!

I did really well for Candles and Reed Diffusers. 

I got two Neom candles from Clint, Tranquility is my fave and i'm excited to try the happiness scent.

I also got Gingerbread Village diffuser from Clint which is from the Zoella Lifestyle range and my mom picked me up this Black Rose and Vanilla scent from Primark. I also got a Salted Caramel candle from Clints Brother which smells so good!

This little dish with gold hearts and a gold A is gorgeous and also from Clints brother. I've popped this on my dressing table for my rings. 

I got lots of Liz Earle goodies too, Clint got me two of the Christmas cleanse and polish gift sets, he got me the orange scented one which i'm so excited to try! 

My mom also got me some goodies she got me the Pink pepper and mint cleanse and polish, a toner, the eye lotion and a hand wash. 

I picked up this Oskia Cleansing gel in the Space NK sale, I also got a Laura Mercier Mascara and liner set which were both half price. 

I love my new Zoella lifestyle pad which contains lots of note paper and sticky notes, Clint got me this!

Finally Clint picked me up some Lush goodies, he knew I would get some in the Sale so he didn't go crazy but he knows I love my bathbombs!!

I am so happy and grateful for all the lovely presents we got for Christmas.
What did you get for Christmas?
