March was another great month full of Easter eggs and hot cross buns. It was tough for me to figure out what to add to my favourites as I had loved many things last month. But here are ones that I have been loving and still love right now.
The Body Shop Tea Tree Cool & Creamy Wash (Similar) - A bargain I got last month was from The Body Shop's sale, I got this creamy face wash for £1! I used it through March as I had blemishes all over my face and I needed them to go away. And this stuff works like a treat. Sadly it isn't online but they do have one similar called squeaky-clean which apparently does the same thing so I will have to buy a bottle of that when I run out of their cool and creamy one.
Macarons De Paris - These babies were a recent find and they are Macarons from Morrisons. I was exploring the food aisles one day and I just came across them. Not sure if other supermarkets do them but Morrisons sell them for £3 and you get different flavours like Coffee, Vanilla, Pisatche, Citron, Chocolat and Fraise.
New Look Rose Gold Sunglasses - Now that we get some sunny days I can finally wear sunglasses and I love these from New Look. I am terrible for losing sunglasses, I think I have gone through over 10 pairs now. I wouldn't want to lose these as they are my favourite pair.
Bronnley London Fragrance In Zealous Flower - In March I won a great prize on Twitter from a company called Bronnley London. I will do a special post all about what I did win but I will say that I love their fragrance Zealous Flower. This smells so beautiful and the perfect Summer scent. I will go in more depth about this on a separate post so make sure you are following me if you are interested in reading that.
Coconut Lane Print "Messy Bun. Get Stuff Done". - Lastly is something from a special online company alled Coconut Lane. If you didn't know I am part of their team of Coconut Lane ambassadors which means my lovely readers/followers can receive a 20% off discount code from any purchase you make on their website. You can see the code on the side of my blog! I will do a special post also on this brand so that you can know more about them.

Today me and my boyfriend Sean finally booked a table at our favourite tea room The Whitmore Tea Room located in Newcastle-Under-Lyme. We had been to this place before and absolutely loved it, you can see my past post here. If you live in the area I really recommend that you visit here if it's just for a pot of English Breakfast tea as it is the perfect place to go.
If I had to recommend one beverage or eat treat to have I would have to say a slice of cake as the lovely ladies who do work there actually make these cakes themselves. I particularly admire the coffee cake. I just want the recipe so I can bake it myself. Sean loves their white chocolate and vanilla cake. But you can see all the options as soon as you walk into the room as they display the cakes for your eyes to see.
Of course the tea is also great, we always go for English Breakfast Tea as I'm not keen on Earl Grey. They do fruit teas if that is something you like and coffee. The lunch menu is delightful too. Finger sandwiches and scones are delish. Today we had the herb chicken breast in mayo which isn't what I had before but was really nice. You can see all the photos below and I'm sure you will want to visit The Whitmore Tea Room.
My outfit: Pink Satchel Bag - Topshop (Similar), Lilac Coat - Primark (Similar), Deer Print Smock Dress - ASOS (Similar), High Waisted Grey Skinny Jeans - New Look, Lilac Pointed Shoes - Accessorize (Similar)

I am getting far too excited about Spring. I have loved baking my whole life, from that day when I was 6 years old and I got a Barbie baking kit, I was instantly hooked. I especially loved doing cooking classes at school as I would make so much food and then take it home to munch on with the family. I stepped away from it for a while until The Great British Bake Off hit our TV screens here in the UK and it reminded me how much I missed baking.
Since I have been pinning on Pinterest I have came across so many great recipes and these are just the few that I would love to bake this Spring.
Do you like the look of any of these recipes?

I'm a huge loyalty card hoarder. I think I pretty much have one for everything and I don't know why I didn't do this ages ago because most of them are seriously worth it. I especially love the Boots and Superdrug cards as when I realise I have no money to buy any make-up, I'll go into Boots/Superdrug and notice that I have some money on the cards to use! I also love Bodyshops card as you get points for every time you shop in store or online and you get vouchers like £10 off to spend. You do get emails for event invites and special offers that are in store. And when it's your birthday you get a free gift worth £5 from them for being a member! Recently I joined Monsoon's reward card which was recommended to me by my auntie who is obsessed with Monsoon/Accessorize. When a new season starts, they turn your points into reward vouchers which are automatically added to your card. I especially love this because If I don't have enough money for an item then I will have some on my card. They also start you off with a 10% off voucher when you join to spend in store or online.
Onto food cards, now I have become pretty obsessed with these cards. Firstly supermarket cards which are such a big help if you are doing a food shop for yourself or just picking up a few random bits. Morrisons Match & More card is really handy if you want vouchers and be the first to know about offers in store. I will obviously like this loyalty card as I do work for Morrisons, but I do think it's one to have! Nectar card has become a recent one and I pretty much got this one because a friend told me that she changes the points she earns into free cinema tickets. Also you don't just have to use a Nectar card in Sainsburys but you can use it in Debenhams, House Of Fraser and Next. So if you buy any clothes from your favourite high street store you still get points. Tesco's Clubcard is a card I have had for a long time but have recently only started using it. They are good for vouchers again to spend on your shopping, recently they are changing your £5 vouchers into £10 vouchers which is pretty good.
Now if you are a coffee addict like myself then you would need a Costa card. With every £1 you spend they reward you with 5 points which each point is worth a penny. I always end up getting a free creamy latte or a mouth-watering muffin to enjoy. I have also recently joined Subways aswell but I haven't used it just yet.
Are you joined to any loyalty cards?
thank you for reading!♥
