Can you believe that it’s time for another favourites?! The fourth one of the year!!! LET’S GO…
Capes: So my first favourite of the month has to be my new cape. A suede number from Dorothy Perkins, camel brown, and complete with fringing- an absolute dream. At first I did think is a cape really needed for spring? But at £10 in the DP sale I saw it as an investment really. I can wear it with a light T in spring, with some cute denim shorts in summer, or with a jumper in autumn/winter- see an investment!!!

Soap&Glory: If you haven’t read my last post than you won’t know
that I’m doing a Soap&Glory beauty haul series. I have basically bought loads of Soap&Glory products to use over the next few weeks so that I can review them for my blog. Watch out for more posts coming soon…

Mindfulness colouring: With exams coming up and the stress levels rising I have been searching for new ways to keep calm and carry on… revising, hence the mindfulness colouring. I find it really helpful after a long day of stressful revision to sit back, relax, and colour in a few shapes before bed, because we are all really still children at heart. I know you can get the actual mindfulness books at TK Maxx for around £10, but if it’s your first time colouring in for relaxation perhaps try a Poundland one first. Have some fun after pulling your hair out all day.
The Beatles: After The Beatles back catalogue became available on Spotify last month I have rekindled my love for them. I mean they will always be a classic band but I actually forgot how amazing they were. With their quirky yet irrevocably intelligent lyrics and up-beat 60’s vibe it’s no wonder their music has spanned decades. If you haven’t listened to them before, or just haven’t listened to them in a while DO IT! Rekindle some new love for a timeless band… all you need is love.
Cappuccino: Lord knows that I love a Cosa- I go once at least once a

week for Christ sakes!!!! But I do find that each month I have a change in what coffee I like, and this months has been cappuccino. Not only is it one of the few Costa drinks where it’s not too many calories for a large, so you don’t feel AS bad as when you get a bucket of hot chocolate with whipped cream and marshmallows, but it also gives the best caffeine kick with playful froth on the top. I would definitely recommend the classic cappuccino for anyone planning a Costa date anytime soon. Or, just go for a Costa anyway, because who really needs an excuse/reason to go for a coffee no matter what you get???
So there are my April favourites!!!! I hope you liked them and maybe try out a few of my absolute loves for this month. Until next time…
