Yankee Candle Christmas Cookie

I LOVE THIS SMELL SO MUCH! I have it as a tart and I had it as a candle last year and loved it so much and the tarts last SO much longer! It's not a particularly Christmassy smell but it smells so sweet and sugary like icing really - I love it! I also love it in the form of a tart because it literally lasts for hours on end I'd say about a month if you had it on everyday - I've never finished one because they last so long and I've wanted to change the smell!

 Hope you liked this short post, what are your favourite Christmas scents?

Book Review: Gone Girl

As a few of you may know I am a writer, not just in the sense of blogging but I write articles for my local newspaper (and online) as well as entering poetry competitions. One of the bad things about loving writing this much is that things like reading kind of fall off the bandwagon! Gone Girl is the first book in about 3 years I've read! I know, that's so bad, I'm actually embarrassed writing it!

Here's a small summary of the book: Nick's wife, Amy,  goes missing on their 5 year anniversary. The crime scene, a diary and internet history all lead to the police and public believing that Nick is responsible, but as the story unfolds and other characters are revealed is he still the one to blame?

ANYWAY...This book is AMAZING! You think you know where it's going then BAM! Plot twist...It's so gripping and I love the amount of detail you find out about each character. I kind of like how it jumps around a character's timeline - it's not confusing as it's quite structured but it makes you feel like you really KNOW the character and what they're like rather than other books where the whole story is set in the present.

I think all the characters in the book are relevant and have an involvement in some way or another in the storyline which I like because I don't like reading about characters in books which don't seem to have an relevance to the actual story!

As a non book reader of about 3 years I REALLY recommend reading this! Next stop for me will be watching the film - woo!

My Checks!

I love checks! I really love this print, I don’t know why or how it came about but for the past 2 years or so I’ve loved flannel shirts, you can wear them so many different ways and I just think they’re a really nice staple to have for both Summer and Winter! In these photos I have four check shirts (the two blues, red and green), one scarf (the white and purple/pink) and two pairs of leggings (both black and white) just as a heads up haha.

 Hope you liked this photo post!
