Beauty & Lifestyle


Who said that playsuits were just for summer? 
They are so versatile and can be dressed with flip flops, or like I have here, with tights, a cardigan, a scarf and boots. 
I've linked a similar one: HERE - put together with this colour cardigan, matches really well with the floral design on the playsuit.

It only comes in one size fits all, but I would say it fits sizes 6-10 (UK size).
 It was my first time ordering from Shein UK, as I know there are all sorts of reviews about the site. They sell clothing and accessories but at low prices. My experience was completely fine, and their delivery was quick (7 days). A trick I would say is if I really like an item, I would check all the reviews as a lot of people upload pictures of them wearing the items of clothing which gave me a good judgement on weather I would like the items or not.  

The cardigan, scarf and boots are from Primark - They do a few different colours in this cardigan (I have one in maroon too), and they are great to chuck on with any outfit.

Me and my husband are currently staying at Hoar Cross Hall. It's a gorgeous venue in Burton-upon-Trent (for my friends wedding).
We had a look on their website and saw that they do afternoon tea, and you all know how much I love afternoon tea!
I thought I would write a blog post for you so you can see how lovely it is!



They offer 3 different afternoon tea's which you can find:HERE

I would advice you to book beforehand to avoid disappointment. 
We certainty weren't disappointed with this afternoon tea (we did the classic option - £20 each). You get a selection of finger sandwiches, plain and fruit scone with jam & clotted cream and a selection of homemade cakes/macarons.
They do offer a box if you can't eat all of the food - we were stuffed so had to! :)

We would highly recommend this afternoon tea if you are ever in the area. When you book a night stay, you get breakfast and use of the spa facilities (in our room we had a jet bath, so it felt like a spa in the bathroom)

Summery dresses are one of my go to statements in my wardrobe. They can be simple or floral, but each one is easy to style with either flats or heels if you want to go that girly look.

I booked a day off work and decided to go for afternoon tea at a place called Crewe Hall. It has amazing grounds and I thought it would be an ideal opportunity to take a few shots of this dress that I got recently.





Believe it or not, I managed to spot this Red Herring dress in a charity shop for a bargain price! 
It's in fab condition and the quality is lovely.
I love the belt which pulls in at the waist and then flows out like a skater dress. It falls just above the knees which gives this dress a classy feel. I paired it with my Clarks heels which are super comfy!

This dress is perfect for days like today, but also if you are attending a wedding as a guest or even for a day at the races.

I love playsuits. They are such a simple outfit idea, but can make you look really feminine and girly. This New Look one is gorgeous (I've had it for a couple of years now, but online, they still do some really great ones). I love the flower design and paired with these Primark sandals, gives this outfit a summery look.

I like the cut out design in the middle, as it's not showing too much skin, but just a little to give this look a much more classy feel.

Hello Sweetie Cupcakery is a cafe in York Place (arcade) in Newcastle-Under-Lyme town centre. If you are looking for a cafe that has everything to please your sweet tooth, then this is a place that you need to visit!
The staff are super friendly and welcoming and it makes the whole experience so much nicer.

They have dotted around, quotes on the walls (which are cute touches) & old fashioned pictures of Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn Monroe and Frank Sinatra which gives the place a nice 1950's/1960's feel!



They are known for their yummy cupcakes which are all home made and they taste so good! There are also other home made bakes too, including these two which are traditional polish cheesecake & rocky road.

My husband went for the Kit Kat cupcake & I went for the Cookies & Cream. 
There's so many more choices from: Crunchie, Maple & Pecan, Jaffa Cake etc.


They not only do sweet treats, but also savory choices too! I had a bagel with cream cheese & salmon and it tasted lovely! My husband had a toastie - with a choice of filling from, cheese, ham & cheese or ham, cheese & tomato.

There is a wide range of hot and cold drinks available from tea, coffees, hot chocolate, milkshakes.

A loyalty card is available for you to collect stamps. Once you have collected 6 stamps you can get a free cupcake!

It really is a lovely cafe, and I would highly recommend going there if you are ever in the area :)
