Hey guys! Thanks again for visiting my blog :). Firstly apologies for the lack of posts lately I have been crazy busy, But I'm back and posting every other Sunday! Recently I've been buying a lot of home goodies so I thought I would share with you lovely lot. Hope you enjoy!




This haul is mainly made up of kitchen items as they are my favourite to buy and if you can't tell already the colour scheme for my kitchen is pastel's. I found this set of tins on eBay and fell in love straight away. They are by a brand called Tala and they are famous for making vintage inspired kitchen accessories. I love the colour of course and I really like the vintage designs.

EBay £15.99


Next up are these pretty pink dinner plates from H&M Home, If you've never looked in H&M Home I really recommend it. I had been looking for pink dinner plates for a while and I didn't just want plain boring plates, So when I stumbled across this set with a cute little budgie I just had to have them! 

H&M Home £4.99 each


Like alot of people I am obsessed with copper kitchen-ware and I wanted a range of copper pans. Copper pans are on the pricey side but if you look after them they really are an investment and will last years! These were actually a Christmas present so I'm not sure of the price.

Salisbury's £15-£35


Of course sticking with the pastel theme are these cute vintage inspired tins. I thought they went really well with the other items I have purchased and they were really affordable.

B&M £3.99



This griddle pan was an absolute steal at £15.99. Its a pink cast iron griddle pan by Le Creuset and the pre-sale price was £64.99! This pan will last years and looks beautiful to.

T K- Max £15.99




Unfortunately the lamp I ordered hasn't arrived yet, typical! So here is the website photo. Going with the copper theme I needed a new lamp for my office and I love these adjustable desk lamps.

EBay £39.99



And that is all for this haul! Thank you once again for reading my blog I appreciate every single one of you. Sorry this post was on the short side.

Whats in my Make up Bag?


Hey guys! Hope you all had an amazing week I know I did,

Being a nosey person I always like to have a look through other peoples make up bags so I thought you might too! Its always a great way to discover new amazing products and see what other people recommend. Hope you enjoy!



So here is my make up bag. Its from Ted Baker, In large because lets face it I need to store a lot. I don't think they sell this particular bag anymore but they still have some similar. This is always the make-up bag I use when traveling because I can always fit in everything I need. 



Foundation

This one is always a staple in my make-up bag. Over the years I have tried many different foundations from drug store to high-end, And I can safely say without doubt that Dior Air flash is the best foundation I have ever tried! Now admittedly it is on the pricy side but if you're looking for a special occasion foundation or you feel like treating yourself I would defiantly recommend Air flash. The finish is somewhere between dewy and matte with medium build-able coverage.





Concealer


Like foundation I feel I have tried every concealer known to mankind, At the moment I am loving the Nars concealer I use the shade Chantilly to highlight my under eye area.The issue I always have with concealer is under eye creasing but I can safely say that Nars have magically combated the issue with this concealer.




Mascara


My current favourite mascara is Benefit's They're real! As you can tell I've had mine for a while, This mascara gives awesome length and volume and is very long lasting. The only thing I do not like about this mascara is how difficult it is to remove so I would defiantly recommend buying the "They're real remover" as it seems to be the only product capable of removing this mascara.




Bronzer


My staple bronzer is always Benefit's Hoola, I like It Because it has a natural matte finish and it's really easy to blend. I find a lot of bronzers have an orange tone to them which doesn't look good on me.




Eyelashes

I always keep a set of eyelash's on hand just in case. My favourite pair are by Eyelure and they are number 143, They are really good quality and I get about 3-4 wears out of them. P.s I'm wearing them in the first picture.





I hope you enjoyed looking through my make up bag, Comment below your favourite products I'd love to know :)

Double Chocolate Chip Cookies



Hey guys! Hope you all had an amazing Christmas and a very happy new year! As it is still the season of indulgence I had to whip up a batch of my scrumptious double chocolate cookies. 

They are super easy to make and super delicious to eat, So heres what your 
gonna need...



Ingredients

150 grams soft unsalted butter 
125 grams soft light brown sugar 
100 grams caster sugar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract 
1 egg (fridge-cold)
1 egg yolk (fridge-cold) 
300 grams flour 
½ teaspoon bicarbonate of soda 
1x large Bar of Galaxy cookie crumble chocolate / Your favourite chocolate bar



First you'll need to pre-heat your oven to 170°C/325°F and line you're baking tray with non stick baking paper.

Melt the butter and let it cool slightly, Put the brown and white sugar in a bowl add the butter and mix together.

Add in the vanilla extract and 1 egg and beat until the mixture is light and creamy.

Slowly mix in the flour and Bicarb soda until well combined, Then fold in your chocolate chunks.


Scoop the cookie dough onto you're baking sheet leaving around a 8cm/3inches gap between each cookie. I tend to use an ice cream scoop to measure my cookies but you can use whatever works best for you!

Bake for around 15-17 minutes , Or until the cookies are lightly golden. If you're like me you will want to eat your cookies right away but I would suggest leaving them to cool for about 5 minutes.
And thats it!



Well, I hope you guys enjoyed,I'd love to see how your cookies turned out please tag me on Instagram! @itsmejamiewalsh

Hello!  Welcome to my shiny new blog! Make yourself at home, Get comfy and hopefully enjoy.



As you might have guessed my name is Jamie I am 21 and I live in Cambridge UK. Im starting this blog because it has been something I have wanted todo for a while now, Im just out to have fun and enjoy life! I don't take things to seriously.  Expect every kind of topic from my blog but I am by no means an expert everything is my own adaptation.



I always find it awkward writing about myself...

So I thought the best way for me to introduce myself would be to do the 10 questions tag!

1: What is your favourite colour?

Red, But a close second would have to be pink.

2:  What was your first thought when you woke up this morning?

Whats for breakfast? I also ask myself this question just before I fall asleep. Did I mention I like food!?

3: What is your favourite type of food?

Mexican or just anything with jalapeƱos

4:What is your greatest fear?

Although I love to travel and visit new places I am petrified of flying.

5: What advise would you give your younger self?

Don't give up and be yourself.

6: What is the most embarrassing thing that has happened to you?

Well, this one took a lot of whittling down but I would have to say when I slid face first through the snow In front of practically the whole school.

7: If you could have any superpower what would it be and why?

I would choose invisibilty because you could basically do what you want

8: Are you more of a night owl or a morning person?

I am most certainly a night owl not a morning person what so ever.

9: If you could only use one piece of make up for the rest of your life what would it be?

I would say concealer.

10: If you could eat only one dish for the rest of your life what would it be?

Without a doubt pizza!


So there you go, Thats me in ten questions hope you enjoyed and I'd love to hear your answers too so leave them in the comments! :)

I will be posting every Sunday and this week I will be making some delectable double chocolate chip cookies so keep and eye out for that!
