Anthropologie Trip

For my birthday last month my lovely work colleagues bought me an Anthropologie gift card, which in itself is the cutest little present. The card came inside a little book that you can fill with lists of likes and loves.

I'm no stranger to Anthropologie, I'd spent a lot of time in the past browsing their website, and even applied for a job there - but shamefully I'd never stepped foot inside. What a great excuse to go!
After 2 trips to the Kings Road store, wondering around a little overwhelmed as it's hard not to love EVERYTHING, I left with a real mixture of bits:

Chalkboard Spice Jar - £10

I couldn't resist this little jar with a chalkboard label. I have no idea what I'm putting in it, or what I'm writing on the label, but I'm sure I'll find something soon!

Little Orange 'Latte' Bowl - £2

I bought the smallest version of this bowl, it's about 5cm big. Orange seems to be my favourite colour at the moment, and I thought this would make a cute tea-light holder.

Mini Capri Blue Mercury Glass Candle - £10

Not only does this candle come in a cute reusable jar, but it smells lovely. I chose the 'Volcano' scent as I like exotic, fruity candles. I'll see how it burns!

Hand-Carved Owl Pen - £3

Couldn't resist really!

Geo Pair Pin - £8

I've not worn this yet, but I'm looking forward to it. Anthropologie's jewellery is all lovely, but a little out of my price range. This was a nice treat for myself, and something not for the home!

I will definitely visit a lot more, especially as it's on the way to work (kind of) and definitely want to explore the brand and the products more. I've heard amazing things about the huge Regent Street store, and I've still got a bit of money left on my gift card.

Looking forward to Spring!

Today has been such a lovely day, it really gets you excited about Spring approaching. I've found myself buying a weekly bunch of daffodils and getting too excited about Snowdrops sprouting in the common.

I think I'm especially excited as I have a garden again this year, yay! Having an outside space really does make such a difference, especially living in London.

I'm determined to do a bit of gardening and keep it looking nice, so expect to see lots of pictures of the garden in the future.
