FAVOURITES · April

Here are my favourite things from over the course of April. Any images that are not my own click through to their original sources and I have tried to be as comprehensive with the links as I can so you can find more info, outlets where to buy products and where to watch/listen/consume anything else.

Girls (Television)
I think series five might have been one of my favourite series of Girls. I think it may have been because of the distance, literally and figuratively, between the Hannah, Marnie, Jessa and Shosh has made it perhaps more interesting than previous series for me.
This Is What The Truth Feels Like (Music)
Finally after waiting for 10 years for another solo Gwen Stefani album it is finally here. I can't help but listen to it every time in its entirety however stand out tracks for me are Where Would I Be?, Make Me Like You and Obsessed. (PS Gwen just released tour dates with support from Eve - amazing - but no UK dates c'mon Gwen!)





Dysh (App)
Even though this will probably sound like I am sponsored (yeah right) or am just trying to gain followers, I legit love this app (although if you want to follow me my handle is @heatherw). Whilst I haven't taken many pics of food I have eaten out recently I am posting some older pics just so I can join in. I mean who doesn't want to look at pics of food? My only gripe is that you are only able to post Dyshes local to the area you are currently in if you use Android, which is a bit annoying for someone living between Somerset and London.
eat: The little book of fast food (Book)
This is a really nice cookbook from Nigel Slater, both aesthetically with it's clothbound cover and simple layout but also with it's wonderful recipes. The book features a melange of small and slightly longer recipes, all of them just having the right measure of simplicity without compromise. I can't wait to make so many of the recipes in the book!






Not Too Deep with Grace Helbig (Podcast)
I've watched Grace's YouTube videos for a while now and after seeing a few clips from the podcast I decided it was finally time to start listening to her podcast. I started from the very beginning and am now up to episode 22, at the time of writing. Grace as always is totally hilarious and even makes me want to listen to episodes which feature guests I don't follow or know.

FAVOURITES · February

Here are my favourite things from over the course of February. Any images that are not my own click through to their original sources and I have tried to be as comprehensive with the links as I can so you can find more info, outlets where to buy products and where to watch/listen/consume anything else.

30 Rock (Television)
Even though it ended 3 years ago I have only just started watching 30 Rock properly, taking over my choice of Netflix binge from my The Office/Parks and Rec/Arrested Development never-ending cycle.

Happy Valley (Television)
After what felt like an eternity, Happy Valley finally came back for a second series. Sarah Lancashire plays Catherine Cawood, one of the best female characters on screen at the moment - perfect for those who are missing their fix of The Fall!




Tea Tree Skin Clearing Clay Mask by The Body Shop (Beauty)
Whereas I don't consider myself as someone who has a beauty regime, I have started to wear face masks regularly. This is the one I have been most frequently using and always leaves my skin feeling super soft.




Make Me Like You - Gwen Stefani (Music)
Gwen, Gwen, Gwen - I can't believe you are finally back with not only another new solo single but an album coming soon to back it up with!  I'll forgive you for taking so long as it comes out on my birthday (18/03) however I am still holding on for some UK live dates!






Swimming (Activity)
At the start of the last academic year I said that myself that I would go swimming at least once a week, naturally that never happened. Now, over a year later, I am trying to do that again. Swimming is the one of the few forms of exercise where I can exert myself but still feel great afterwards.  I can't wait to use my Misfit Speedo Shine in the pool (which I keep forgetting), it is always surprising how far you have actually swam when you count how many laps you've done. Last time I swam 50 laps which is 1.25km!
