Things I Love Thursday

i've had a ton of requests for a post about undereye concealers. i have literally 4 or 5 of the most popular in my possession and am busy compiling a post comparing each. watch this space!

1. nail art.

i remember this was 'huge' back when i was in my early teens. one of my school friends was a master at it even at the baby faced aged of 13 and would come into class with the most amazing creations on her nails. it seems like nail art is having a resurgence in 2010. will you be trying it?
2. manchester. sure, there are times when i wish i lived in london but deep down there's nowhere i'd rather be in the UK. manchester is my city. i love pretty much everything about it. it definitely feels like home. i can't wait to escape the surburbs (and my parent's house!) and be in the thick of things.
3. etsy. how addictive is this?! i got one of my favourite original art prints here a couple of years ago but haven't searched around the site for quite some time. this week i rekindled my love affair with etsy. oh, how i've missed it.
4. saving up. saving money is great isn't it? i much prefer to see my money in the bank rather than hanging in my closet :) it's hard but worth it. my plans are finally falling into place.
5. yoga. one of my goals for 2010 was to practice yoga. this week i finally tried it out in a class environment for the first time. i'd already given a few at home DVDs a shot so kinda new what to expect. i also found this article 'a beginner's guide to yoga' very useful to read before i went. have you tried yoga? what do you think?


what are you lovin' this week?

  3. I love yoga and download free sessions from yogadownload.com - its so good to stretch your body and relax. I still haven't tried it in a class environment yet though. Looking forward to your eye concealer post x

  5. I want to get into yoga but I just haven't found a groove with it yet and I can't find a DVD I like! I am addicted to Etsy too, it's so easy to spend hours and hours looking through tons of pages!

  7. thanks for all the wonderful (as always) comments girls...

    @laura - i've also made use of yogadownload.com. very cool site. concealer post will be along asap.

    @Stacey - it's a great city. if it wasn't for the weather (gloomy, grey, forever rainy) i'd say it was perfect.

    @Madison - will check that out, thanks :)

  10. @Sofia, i think that's just England generally! I live down South and i swear it's just a myth it's better weather down here!
