For the love of jeans (and chocolate)

Happy Easter everyone! If your weekend has been anything like mine I'm sure it's been fuelled with delicious food, Cadbury's chocolate eggs and one too many glasses of wine. I love long weekends and even more so when everyone is in a celebratory / happy mood. I've tried to make the most of every day so far, kicking off my long weekend with a visit to The Lifestyle Lab for the Debenhams Beauty and Bellini's night. I honestly had such a lovely evening catching up with some of my favourite blogging ladies. I don't think we actually left until near enough 11pm! I will share a few snaps of the event along with what we got in the fabulous goody bag in my next post. Sneak peek - I've actually discovered a new favourite beauty product that I've been wearing religiously since. But again, more on that next time.

On Friday my friend Danielle and I hired bikes at Strathclyde Park for a little light but fun exercise before returning to mine for some wine and food. Not letting the chilly wind hault our plans, we lit a fire pit, grabbed a few blankets and enjoyed a glass of wine (or three) out the back. This is the first time this year that I've sat out in my back garden and I couldn't have been happier. I really want to adopt the Danish way of living and embrace the outdoors more, no matter what the weather. If you're wondering at all what I'm rambling on about check out this article in Stylist.

On Saturday The Boy and I went along to my friends Tessa's lovely house warming and then on Sunday it was a chocolate breakfast, Sunday roast and movie kind-of-day.

I've fell madly in love with this pair of jeans from Monki. The shape and relaxed style of them have left me struggling to take them off lately. They're amazing to dress up and dress down. I actually wore these to the house-warming on Saturday with a pair of lacy heels and cut out shoulder top. I don't normally share evening or 'fancy' outfits on my blog but if this is something you would like to see let me know!
