May's Favourites

As a bit of a shopaholic for adorable and amazing things i thought i ought to share my May's favourite purchases with you. Most of the items come from some of my favourite brands and some are from newly found small companies that i have fallen in love with. I normally like to shop around for the best prices but for some things i have to choose the real thing and go for quality. 

To start off my list is this amazing piece from "Festive". I love this because its so quirky and different and i've not seen much like it before. The bold colours (although not to everyone's taste) really caught my eye and I just couldn't resist!


Next on my list is a piece from a small company i stumbled across just the other day, scrolling through the website i could've bought literally everything on there. But in the end i settled for these cuties. 


I saw them and fell in love instantaniously! They're just so me and so they went straight into the shopping cart. If you love any thing cute or food with little faces on LittleMissDelicious is the place to go for your jewelery and home furnishings. 

I also have just a litttttle obsession with smelly candles. I could spend a whole pay packet on them. But this month, in the end i settled for two candles. One from BombCosmetics and one from WaxLyrical. Both of these candles were reasonably priced and the aroma's are just amazing. Or as my brother says "They smell like God's second vagina!" (He really has a way with words that amazes me).  Festival Dream by BombCosmetics all-in-all looks and smells fantastic, and beat of all the scent lasts long after you blow it out. Which in my mind is like getting double your money's worth. And as for Celebration by WaxLyrical,, well its perfect for a relaxing bath and glass on wine. 


Now, anyone who knows me will know when it comes to clothes I'm a sucker for a sale. My eyes light up as soon as i see the word. And this month was no different! As soon as the email came theough i was on the website like there was no tomorrow. As a big fan on Jack Wills i couldn't resist these next two piece's. First off is the 'Clevendon Pintuck SS Shirt'. It features a contrasting collar to the shirt and cute puffy sleeves that i adore. 

And Secondly is the 'Harwich SS Pintuck Dress' which is really simlar to the shirt and is just my style and so i couldn't resist buying it as well. 


That about wraps up my favourite purchases of this month. Is there anything you've bought this month that you fell in love with instantly? Let me know ☺️ 

Lots of Love, MadRamblings xx

Saving the Planet one step at a time

As Spring arrives so do many other things in Britain, ice cream vans, tree blossom and of course lots of bugs. But one problem we face is the declining bee population. Bees are essential for the pollenation of flowers and the production of honey. Without them the world would not function properly. As a teenager i think that it is very important to preserve the world today for a better tomorrow. And so i have taken it upon myself to help out our bees by giving them a home to nest in and by plating seeds that are perfect for them to pollenate. These small simple things, can help out greatly. Here are the things that i bought to help save Britains Bees.

A Bee Box - Pennells Garden Centre, £12.99

Various Seed Packets - Pennells Garden Centre

Seed Trays - Pennells Garden Centre


John Innes Seed Compost - Pennells Garden Centre, £3.49
