February: Lately I've Been Loving

Here's my February loves:


Discovering and trying gorgeous Lind & Lime Gin which is distilled in Leith, Edinburgh. I love the bottle and the gin's stunning with lime, pink peppercorn and juniper botanicals to name a few. It's the very first spirit created by the Port of Leith Distillery Co and you can read more about the gin HERE.


February's Sandwick Bay Candles Subscription Corner box was my favourite yet. The theme for February was Wild Roses and Chocolate. See my thoughts HERE.




Picking up this gorgeous handcrafted soap (which looks almost good enough to eat!) from Edinburgh based Eira Soaps at Cahoots in Portobello. I'm looking forward to using it and a review will follow.


Again, on our recent trip to Leith - at Leith Market and FLUX I chose these lovely treats. 


I've been receiving some great book post* and I can't wait to read Lesley Kelly's new A Health of Strangers Thriller and catching up with old friends in Death at the Plague Museum (I also liked the "tablets" to ward off the virus - chuckles). I'm taking part in the blog tour in April so keep your eyes peeled for my review then.

June: Lately I've been Loving


JOIK's Hot Chocolate Candle* is simply mouthwatering. See my review HERE. I definitely want to try more candles from the range (and hopefully at some point Love Lula will stock their new diffusers).


I love pretty stationery and #boxoflame by That Lame Company ticks all the boxes for me. See my review HERE.



The perfumes I've been enjoying lately (so sad I'm nearly finished that Miller Harris!!)

Two Eternities EdP by Walden* - see my review HERE.
Vetiver Insolent EdP by Miller Harris - I love this spicy vetiver scent.
Jo Malone Grapefruit cologne - the first Jo Malone perfume I bought. I love its uplifting citrussy grapefruit notes.
Kai Perfume oil - huge fan of this beauty! The body care products are gorgeous too. See my review HERE.
Balm Balm Mandarin and Bergamot Single Note Perfumes - these are simply gorgeous, fruity, delicious and perfect for summer. Love Lula are selling the minis set for £9.95 just now which is an absolute steal! See HERE.



These new Schmidt's sensitive skin deodorants in Coconut Pineapple (screams of summer) and Jasmine Tea are available to buy at a beautiful world.






I really enjoyed going to the book launch of Lesley Kelly's new book The Health of Strangers which you can pick up in any good bookshop or at Amazon. I love a signed book and it's now on the groaning TBR pile!



I love this little snap I took of a ladybird down at the allotment. Simple pleasures eh!



This pudding is total summer in a glass - vanilla pannacotta with strawberry soup, strawberries and strawberry sorbet! Delicious. Get yours at The Guild of Foresters in Portobello (I'll definitely be going back to try it again soon!)
