Valentines & Weekend in Paris Photos


Hey Guys! 

How was your weekend? :)


Sorry that it's been a bit quiet on my blog the past few days, I thought I'd put a little collage together of some snaps I took over the weekend and Valentines. Hope you all had a lovely Valentines and that you spoiled yourselves and had a little me time pamper. Any excuse to have flowers, chocolate strawberries and an extra long bath with candles is always a good day. There should be more of these Valentines days if you ask me! 

I really wanted to post a Valentines make up look, but I'm going to be honest and say I didn't even wear make-up on Valentines day. We decided on making a meal at home and just relax so staying in my pyjamas with no make-up on was perfect for my lazy side. Things were more exciting when we went to visit Cléments parents for the weekend. We decided to go for a stroll around Paris and take in a little more of this enchanting city rather than me dragging Clément into every Sephora and Zara in sight, only window shopping this time! (which was pretty hard to resist I have to say). 

I love the buzz of a big city like Paris, the hustle and bustle and the interesting characters you see, the buskers in the Metro and all the colourful languages you can hear around you. For once I don't feel like such a foreigner in France, which I sometimes feel in a smaller place like Saint-Quentin (the cashier at the supermarket looked at me like she never saw an english person in her life last week when she said "YOU ENGLISH?!" in total surprise when I went to pick up a few groceries, this gave me a little chuckle when I came home and told Clément). 

Hope you enjoy this little snap shot into my weekend, my favourite photo is of course Holly sitting like a human on the sofa, she gets into those positions herself too! I can tell she's going to be a funny character when she's fully grown. 


I'd love to hear how was your weekend and Valentines :) I know I'm only half way but I'm excited to say i'll have a little give away if I get to 100 followers, so keep your eyes peeled for that! 



See you soon!

  2. Lovely pics, especially the first one. I loved Paris so much, it was such a nice experience just wandering around the streets discovering something on every corner. Your Valentine's day sounds like my idea of heaven tbh!

  8. Your quote about the lady in the supermarket made me chuckle - last time I went to France I was (rather oddly, given that I barely speak French) continually mistaken for being French...kind of the opposite scenario to you! We've been debating going to Paris and that top left-hand photo has made me want to go even more now!
