The Ark | A Vintage Market Place
As you may know if you've read my room tour post, I've recently moved house. After living in the same place my whole life (except briefly moving around various student houses in Portsmouth for uni) I was excited to explore different towns. And as a serial shopper, I wasn't disapointed! We actually didn't realise when moving here just how close we are to many amazing locations, Ascot is five minutes away and has some really nice bars and restaurants, Reading and Guildford are a short drive and have huge shopping centres with all the brands you can think of. And Camberley is really close by and has the most amazing cupcake shop called la de da cupcakes, along with this little treasure, The Ark!
My sister took me here, knowing I'd love it and she was spot on! They have everything from retro 70s furniture to vintage Parisian dressers, amazing original artwork, it's own little garden section with fresh flowers and these amazing 'Amish Barn Stars'! If you're looking for something no one else has this is the place to go! It's obviously on the pricey side but I will start saving now if it means I can hang those crazy stars around my garden!
I'll link the website HERE if you want to see more :)

Pamper Sesh
I love a good pamper sesh and when I get chance to have one, I pull out all the stops. Wine, candles, bath bombs, hair masks, face masks, nail polish and a good book!
I got this Golden Wonder bath bomb in a big box of Lush stuff from my sister at Christmas and I couldn't wait to use it. I'd seen the magic in a shop one Saturday, when I was lingering behind someone who had asked for a demonstration of this wonderful creation, the lush lady got her silver bowl of water out and chucked it in and there was gold and blue and pink and tiny little stars! (I added some of my Soap and Glory foam call for some extra bubbles too!)
It smelt amazing, and left my skin feeling really soft. Obviously the Golden Wonder is part of the Christmas range so if you're lucky you may get one in the sale but otherwise below are 3 of the best lush bath products!... (in my opinion!)
It smells like blackberries, it makes pink bubbles and can be used in at least 4 different baths, so deffo worth the price!)
A bit pricey but it smells beautiful!
This is a bath melt so there are no bubbles but it might just be the best smell ever!
What's your fave lush product?
Do you love a bit of a pamper sesh too?

2013
I've been watching a few of these nifty little 2013 videos from people I follow, and as I'm feeling just as reflective about my year in this strange limbo like time between Christmas and New Year, I thought I'd make my own!
This really made me realise how much I love Instagram, it makes you appreciate and remember all the things you thought were important enough to stop and take a picture of! AND I don't even care if I'm that person taking a picture of their dinner, I actually love looking back through them!
I've had such an amazing 2013, starting off interning at ASOS, then I spent my last few months at uni before going to the Amalfi Coast, interning at Oasis and Monsoon, Graduating, attending some great events, and then moving to a lovely new house!
Fingers crossed 2014 will be just as exciting! My aim is to finally land myself a job in Fashion PR, what's yours?
Link my Instagram (xgeorgia) if you've made a best of 2013 flipagram, I'd love to see!
Happy New Year, see you in 2014!

Bourjois Twist up the Volume Mascara | Review
I love testing out a new mascaras! So when I picked up this little beauty from Bourjois at London Fashion Week I couldn't wait to try it!
As I've tried to show in the best way I could in the photos below, it has a little twist top with two settings which change the length and width of the wand.
The first setting is longer and the plastic bristles are set wider apart so they comb through all of the lashes and separate them. The second setting twists the wand so that the plastic bristles are closer together, so that it thickens and adds volume to the lashes.
I usually spend a lot of time combing through my lashes on the first setting to make sure they are all separated and coated from root to tip, before switching to the second setting and wiggling the wand through the root of my lashes (rather than at the ends which would make them look clumpy!)
No Mascara Coat 1 Coat 2
It's fab, and sooo black which I love! The formula is quite dry but without being flakey which is also good,and despite my love for natural bristle wands I actually have found myself preferring this plastic bristle wand recently! I like how much it really separates them and I can get to all of the little hard to reach lashes at each end of my eyes.
You may have noticed that I have no mascara on my bottom lashes in these pictures, this is because there is only one mascara I dare to use on my bottom lashes, and that is Clinique's bottom lash mascara! Every single other one I've tried on my bottom lashes ends up half way down my face after a few hours, which, let me tell you... is not a good look!
But for top lashes this is my fave of the moment, it's lengthening, volumising and long lasting AND it does a snazzy wand twisting trick! What more could you want?!
Have you tried this fabulous new invention?
What's your favourite mascara?
Little exclusive for you as well... Bourjois are developing a new mascara formula to rival Benefit They're Real which, I don't know about you, but I am VERY much looking forward to!

Black and Gold | Nail art
Barry M nail paint in and foil effects
I'm getting quite nifty with my little nail art dotting tool! I was only going to do one nail dotty but I went a bit crazy and did the whole lot, but I quite like it, what do you think?
Hope you like!
