Tiny Treats

On Friday we are moving back to England after living in Belgium for a year. I am very excited. Don’t get me wrong living here has been an amazing experience, but the cost of living here is huge compared to the UK and I miss being able to shop without thinking dammit this would be so much cheaper at home. Anyway before we leave I have been using up all my credit notes, another irritation is that you can’t get your money back if you return something, they will only give store credit argh!
So today I went to H&M with 20 euros to spend and a severe warning from my boyfriend not to buy anything too big, he is becoming a bit of an old woman about how we will fit all our belongings (my clothes and makeup) in the car.

This is what I bought:

These earrings were actually in the children’s section. I often like to wear big earrings, but my daughter, Princess M, is going through a particularly grabby phase at the moment so for the sake of my earlobes I will be sticking to studs for the foreseeable future.


When I found out I was having a little girl I was super excited about the potential shopping opportunities after all you can’t feel guilty if it is for someone else can you. It seems everybody else had the same idea and have been lavishing her with many generous gifts. She now has a wardrobe to rival Suri Cruise and I struggle to justify buying her anything. Ironically given her extensive outfit options she is happiest in plain cotton sleep suits and vests. I bought her these cute iron on patches to jazz them up a bit.


This nail varnish adds a glittery twist to this season’s “greige” shade. I have never tried H&M nail varnish before so I will be sure to report back when I have given it a go.


As per my last post you can see I am a sucker for anything to help my feet. This mini pedicure kit will be great for taking on holiday.

What have you bought this week?

  1. Hi there, I love your blog! I will need to get hold of these iron on patches as little L rips open all her pants thanks to excessive crawling. She can walk, yes, but still...
