A day of wandering

Last Saturday my mum and I had a day of shopping/wandering through Groningen. Something I’ve looked massively forward too, considered I much needed a day without stress or anxiety. Because, as you might know my goal of 2015 is to challenge myself (anxiety wise) and I’ve started this month and it has become almost a daily challenge.

As an extra present a blanket of snow was put over the world that morning. Which made my dog and I very excited and of course we went straight outside to have a play with it, it was Luna’s first snow and I believe it's now her favourite type of weather. So after having played with the snow for a little bit it was time to get ready because we had a train to catch.

Finally we arrived in Groningen, but instead heading straight towards the main shopping streets, we decided to go and wander a bit through bits of Groningen where we normally wouldn’t go. With less familiar shops. Unfortunately, it didn’t go down the way we planned and hope, we first had to get the hang of it. But at the end, we did have a lovely time wandering and eating lunch at Het Concerthuis, which is beautifully decorated and the food and drinks are presented in such a nice and unique way and of course the food was delicious.

Of course, leaving Groningen without buying a few bits and bobs was a bit impossible.

Vanilla Eaude Toilette
I thought I would treat myself with my lovely smelling perfume/Eau de Toilette and this vanilla one from the Bodyshop is perfect as it isn’t your standard perfume smell, which I’m not a fan of. I Think they smell a bit too perfumy, if that makes sense, it probably wouldn’t.

VanillaBrûlée Bath Melt
This one was on sale, only €2,70 and is vanilla fragrance, which is one of my favourite smells. Another reason to buy, this is that I only have three baths worth of lush stuff left.

Notebook
I always had an obsession with owls, but lately foxes have been added to my small list of obsessions. To feed this new obsession of mine, I couldn’t help myself from buying this notebook covered in foxes, especially because I had my eye on this one for quite a while.

Books
These two books came out a store which held a sale and sold all books for only €2, - each, so I had to have a look if they had anything for me there and I found these two books.

Mesh T-shirt dress from Stardust
This is a long shirt (it comes down to my ankles) and has a slit on each side starting from where my ribs end. I think this will be great wearing over almost anything to make an outfit stand out a bit more or just to cover myself up. It’s probably a piece I will get a lot of wear out during spring and summer.

The prettiest books I own
It was love at first sight, because as soon as I saw them I was sold. Of course I asked my mum several times whether it was a good idea to buy them (as I always do because of my forever doubt). But I was asking this whilst holding the books extremely tightly in my arms so that nobody could take them away from me.
