The Magical Things That Made My March

The season of Spring is well under way. (As well as the April showers meh)

But aside from the iffy weather, let's take a moment to look back at March because it was pretty special. And so far, this year is turning out to be one of my favourites!

If you want to fully catch up on my life, read my last full life update post here.

Soooo, let's look at the moments of the month...

001: the lighter evenings!
The evenings were already getting longer by the time the clocks went forward. But there's something pretty special about sitting in my room on a day off when the evening sunlight soaks my room in golden glow and warmth. And that's what I live for!

002: buying a new plant baby!
Pictured above is my new friend Marina! (aka 2.0 as the original Marina the plant died...) I snapped her up in Morrisons for £5 would you believe it?? She now sits proudly on my bedside table. I've only watered her once since purchase and she's almost twice as big now!

003: zoella x colourpop!
The collab collection has certainly shaken up my makeup routine and I'm living (not only for the packaging) but also the palette, blush, lipsticks aaaaand supernova shades. They're just SO GORGEOUS. I've just really been enjoying taking the time to enjoy applying them to my face. It's the small things guys.

004: all the flowers!
What's Spring - or March for that matter - without blooms in your room? I've had a huge abundance of tulips in mine and it's been wonderful! I just enjoy looking at them and they make me happy haha. I would have had daffodils by now but for some reason, the ones I've seen have already flowered. *sad face*

005: getting my baking bug!
I made a huge batch of my fave ever cookies and took my sweet time (a week) in indulging in them. They're the best chunky, sweet and really filling cookies ever. And I can't wait to bake more. Spring seems to be the season where I do bake the most! See the recipe here if you like the sound of them too!
