MY WOODSWORTH EDITIONS BOOK COLLECTION


Some of you may already know that I have joined Beth's Book Club at some point in 2020 when I needed to have some sense of community. Thanks to the beautiful pictures that often get re-shared on the Instagram page for the book club, I have come across the most gorgeous collector's editions of classic books that include some of my favourite titles.

REVIEW || BLOOD ORANGE BY HARRIET TYCE - BETH'S BOOK CLUB READ FOR APRIL


It has honestly been too long since I picked up a book and really enjoyed it. I used to be an avid reader for many years until going to university where I feel like my passion slowly started to diminish. It wasn't until September 2019 that I started to read again, maybe not like I used to but I found myself picking up a new book every 4-6 weeks or so. Since UK lockdown I found myself reading a lot more, but definitely not as much as I'd like to (I've got Netflix and Amazon Prime to thank for that!).

Recent Purchases

Hello Everyone,
There is no better feeling than finding amazing bargains on clothes, make-up, skin care and even books. I went round Charity shops in the local area and found great deals. I got 5 books for 30 pence each, coming up to £1.50 for the whole lot. I couldn't be happier. I am a massive book worm, and finding such great bargains on books which were originally on my to-buy list is a great feeling.
I am a huge Sex and the City fan, and Candace Bushnell is an amazing author. I own 6 of her books now, including the Lipstick Jungle.
I've read the 50 Shades of Grey Trilogy and thought the books were quite good, even though I expected more of them. I've heard of Sylvia Day's Bared to You books and thought that I should give them a go, at least the first one anyway. The fact that I found this book for 30 pence is shocking. And amazing!!!
Nicholas Sparks is my all-time favourite author. I love all of his novels and film adaptations. I had to add The Lucky One to my collection.
I loved the film, so I reckon I will love the book even more.
This film is beyond beautiful.It made me cry so many times throughout the 2 hours haha. I reckon the book will make me just as emotional.
What's better than a storage box for £1? I got this from Poundworld and decided to store all my single eye shadows and eye shadow palettes.
4 storage baskets for £1 also from Poundworld. I'm going to use these to store my lipstick, each basket for different shades: reds, pinks, nudes and assorted colours.
Look how cute the baskets are. They are so tiny!
I adore Eylure eyelashes and when I saw these in Poundland I had to grab them! I only bought one pair to try them out and see if I like the style. I will definitely buy more pairs if I like these.
The flash on my camera is on the product so you can't see it very well, but I got the Nip+Fab concealer on sale at Tesco for only £2.49 reduced from £9.99. I'm very excited to try this product, especially as I ran out of my Rimmel concealer and had to buy a new one. I will review this product very soon.
I got this Nike gym top from a Charity shop for £2.99. I love the colour and cannot wait to wear it when I next go gym :)
I got this Next Camisole from another Charity shop for only £1.49!! I can't wait to pair it up with a pair of black or white jeans. This post just shows how good I am at finding great bargains! I must say that I'm always happier when I go shopping and spend a little money for a lot of clothes, rather than splash out for one item. I've learnt how to spend my money, at last!!!
If you have any questions then don't be afraid to drop a comment or email me :)
Lots of love,

March Wishlist

Hello everyone :)
In today's post I'm going to share with you a few items which are on my wishlist any why I really want to get them.
1) I really need a new purse as I broke the zip on my Louis Vuitton one, but then again I have had it for a while. At the moment I have a small brown purse from Primark and it is very cute and really good quality for the price. But I really want a new, big purse to go with my mew handbag. This white purse is from Burberry and is soooo glamorous but also soooo expensive :( I think I would have to save up for 3 months to get it!! It's very spacious, it has 4 separators for coins, notes, receipts and cards. Sounds perfect to me!
2) This Burberry scarf is gorgeous. It comes in different shades and patterns but this camel shade is my favourite and would match my Burberry bag. I have been looking around for a new scarf as well, as I'm pretty bored of my teal and gold one now.
3) My mum text me last night telling me to check out an online clothing store called 'sheinside'. I have immediately registered and added a few things to my shopping basket, including this cute bunny fashion t-shirt. It just describes me well. The well-dressed bunnies are so cute. I love bunnies. SEE!! This t-shirt is SO me! I need it in my life.
4) This Fiorelli bag is so pretty! It's from the SS 2014 collection, and it's a must have this season! I love pink as well. Pink is the way forward. I'm considering buying this bag as a treat to myself after my exams are over for all the hard work I have been doing :)
Lots of love,
Maya
