It’s the end of April and spring is meant to be here. Instead it is alternating between howling winds and snowfalls outside. What is all that about England?! I was hoping to be wearing my boyfriend jeans with a summer top by now but I’m too scared to get my ankles out. I am one of those people who is always cold and this weather is no good for me. On a brighter note, April has been pretty fun and as you read this I have just got back from a trip to NYC to pick up my wedding dress. OH THE GLAMOUR. But what else have I been up to in between?
Supermood Skincare
I was lucky enough to get sent a batch of skincare from the lovely Finnish brand Supermood at the start of the month. I am currently testing their day time and night time serum as well as a face mask. So far, so good and I will be doing a full post on what I thought of those lovelies shortly, but in the meantime here’s a sneak peak piccie of the Beauty Sleep serum.
A Trip to Sofia
Then it was off to Sofia, Bulgaria for a few days with work. I was lucky enough to hit the city at a really sunny time and wrote a post about the top seven things I really enjoyed about it in the short space of time I was there.
Bridesmaid Dress Shopping
When I got back from Bulgaria it was onto picking dresses for my beautiful bridesmaids, which we managed to do very successfully! I was then inspired to write a post about my top picks for floral, summery bridesmaid dresses because they’re not as easy to find as you might think. I don’t want to show you the dresses themselves so it’ll be a surprise on the day but the girls look absolutely lovely.
Kylie Jenner Lipglosses
I did it, I succumbed to the hype. I’m kind of ashamed of myself but I was extremely bored when I made the order at midnight on a Friday night so there you go. There has been a whole load of backlash about how rubbish the gloss brush is – so apparently I’m getting sent another set of lipglosses… If this is true, maybe I’ll do a giveaway?! Full post to come soon.
Date Night
The month rounded off with a visit to the wedding venue (again, top secret!) and a celebratory date night out at Cabana, Newcastle. It was a definite cheat night, with lots of guac and even more cocktails. Too many cocktails maybe…
Hope you all had a lovely April – what have you been up to?

Hope you had a fun (and productive) trip to the city! I’m so intrigued by the Kylie lip kits. So far I have refrained from attempting to purchase them lol. I actually had no idea there were glosses too! Bummer that brushes are wonky 🙁 But at least they’re sending you new ones!

I’ve just received the new ones but not picked them up from the Post Office yet. I’ve had to pay another £12 for customs! Not impressed so far. We shall see whether the brushes are any different.
