Wellington | Travel Diary

Wellington Waterfront

Over the weekend my sister and I made a trip to Wellington, New Zealand. We had surprisingly good weather (sunny though Wellington definitely upheld its windy reputation). I think Wellington is a really nice city, with good food, culture and great shopping opportunity.

Zoella Beauty | Haul & Review

Zoella Beauty

I ordered these products from Feel Unique who ship internationally. Some of these products aren't available on the Feel Unique website anymore, but I believe are still available from Superdrug if you live in the UK. Here's what I bought:

I absolutely love raspberries, they have to got to be one of my favourite fruits. Desserts incorporating raspberries are my go-to.
