I've wanted a Lush massage for years but somehow it never quite happened. When I eventually booked one in Liverpool during the summer, it was cancelled when staff discovered on the day that they'd double-booked the therapist. It wasn't until the end of February that I finally managed to experience it. Thankfully it was worth the wait!

World Book Day Wishlist
If you're anything like me, you don't need an excuse to buy cute, bookish gifts. If you are one of those people who needs a bit more convincing, good news! It's World Book Day and that means you have the perfect reason to treat yourself to some literary goodies. Have a look at my picks for some inspiration.
Hogwarts Express t shirt // Matilda book worm sweatshirt // Mad Hatter pin
Roald Dahl notebooks // Pandora book charm // Book journal
Personal library kit // Rebecca mug // You Are Here bookmark
The Great Gatsby Penguin book bag // Literary Listography book // Deluxe Gruffalo gift set
Yes, that's a fancy Gruffalo box set. Yes, I'm an adult. No, I don't have kids. I just love the Gruffalo, OK???

Review // Wahaca Southampton
I adore Mexican food but I'd never been to Wahaca. How bad is that? Thankfully, the brand new Southampton restaurant rectified that when they invited me to try some of their Mexican dishes. I had no idea what to expect but I had such a wonderful experience. I can't praise them enough!

Differences in Undergraduate and Master's Study
Without blowing my own trumpet, I breezed through my undergrad study. Naively, I thought that working on a master's would be similar. More difficult concepts, perhaps, but more or less the same structure. Yeah, I was wrong.

Wishlist // Ankle Boot Edit
I'm a relative newcomer to the world of ankle boots, having only started wearing them a year ago. I have no idea what took me so long but I haven't looked back since. They're now an absolute staple of my wardrobe and, if you ask me, you can never have too many pairs!
Embroidered ankle boots // Lace up velvet ankle boots // Velvet heel ankle boots
Lightning bolt ankle boots // Tapestry ankle boots // Bow ankle boots
Embroidered heel ankle boots // Silver mirror ankle boots // Purple ankle boots
Buckle ankle boots // Sequin ankle boots // Silver glitter ankle boots
Which boots shall I buy? All of them? Yeah, I agree!

Review // Half a Sixpence
My favourite film ever is Oliver!, and I love the proper old-fashioned British musical aspect of it. Those huge musical numbers with everybody dancing in unison, and the complete immersion in this different world. When I saw the cast of Half a Sixpence perform on Children in Need, I got the impression that this was in a similar vein. I enjoyed the performance so much that I made it a priority to buy tickets to see it myself. Spoiler alert: That was a brilliant decision!
Tuesday
Book Wishlist // Blogging & Career
Every book I've ever read based around blogging has been a massive disappointment. That doesn't mean I've given up hope though. I've heard some really great things about a number of books which are all waiting patiently in my Amazon wishlist. If you want to up your blogging or career game (or both!), then hopefully these are perfect!
