GIFT IDEA: New Baby (For Talia & Ben's Baby Boy)

Before I start I want to just say that I didn't pay for this gift by myself so at work when somebody leaves or goes on maternity leave we put money together to get a gift, I decided I will message everyone about the gift now this gift idea was something I wanted to do but it was actually one of the bosses Chris who mentioned doing a hamper so here it is.

I found this grey toned basket and thought it was cute, what I have heard of Talia and Ben's place it is very grey themed.

UNBOXING: Birchbox UK February 2020

Second box for the year and it's From Birchbox With Love X. This month we are treated to an extra product so normally we should have five products but this month we have six.

The Box

I love the box, it is a gorgeous pattern, I opened it and just saw pink and red, there is shredded tissue paper inside which I put into a zip lock bag and reuse with other gifts.

Empties #1

I have been saving the empty bottles and packaging over the past couple of months of the products I have used up and wanted to write a blog post where I did a brief description on what I thought of each product and whether or not I would repurchase them.

FOTD & OOTD: Maine's Leavers Night Out

I work with an amazing woman called Maine who has really made me feel welcomed and part of the team since I started, we have had some good chats, been to Hull Fair together and danced at the Christmas party so to hear that Maine was leaving was sad, I know it is what she wants, she can progress in her new job and it's a job where she is going to work with friends of ours so we decided to go to her hometown of Hull on a night out.
