Topshop Student event

On Tuesday, Topshop and Topman were holding a student after-hours night event in Sydney, with free drinks, food and goodies! Myself and two of my friends decided to go. 

Food Adventures: Sweet Spot

A few days ago, before I had to return to uni, a few of my friends and I visit a charming patisserie called Sweet Spot Patisserie in Randwick. They had so many beautifully presented desserts, ranging from cake slices, ice creams, whole cakes, tarts and short breads - it was so hard for me to pick which one I wanted to try! 

I ended up choosing the Choc Panna Cotta Delice, and it was great! The Panna Cotta was lovely and smooth, and the base of the cake was crunchy and crumbly which added texture to the super smooth Panna Cotta. It was garnished with a blueberry, a strawberry and a white chocolate curl - the fruits definitely helped cut through the sweetness. 

My other friends decided to get the Pistachio Panna Cotta, the Red Velvet cake slice, the Japonaise, and the Caramel Mousse (last two not pictured).

The box that my cake came in - It's so adorable! 

It was great to just sit down and relax with cake and tea with a few of my friends before the stress of uni takes over my life. So if you guys are ever see a Sweet Spot Patisserie, I recommend you visit! Even if it's just to admire the gorgeous cakes hahaha. 

I hope everyone is having a lovely week, I'll see you lovelies in my next post! take care! 

Chocolate Cupcakes

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! I usually don't celebrate Valentine's Day but this year, I decided that today would be a great day to bake some cupcakes. I love cooking in general but I really love making desserts. I mostly bake whenever I had free time or when I feel like it, but I have baked for special occasions before. 

So in the spirit of Valentine's Day, I decided to bake chocolate cupcakes! The recipe I used was from a cupcake book that I have - I've never ever used this book before so I had no idea how this recipe would turn out as it was a little different to how I would usually make chocolate cupcakes. But in the end they turned out super yummy! In the book they're called "Valentine Heart Cupcakes" but essentially they're chocolate cupcakes.

Here's the recipe: 

OOTD: Family Dinner

The other day my family decided to go out for dinner, so I thought I'd do a little OOTD post for you guys! 

Nail Art: Fuzzy Coat

The Sally Hansen Fuzzy Coat nail polish is one of my absolute favourites from Sally Hansen. I get a lot of compliments on my nails whenever I wear this design so I thought I'd share it with you guys! 

All you need is:

- Base coat 

- Coloured nail polish of your choice 

- Top coat (optional) 

OneTeaspoon sale and Paper2 adventures

Hi everyone! I'm back! I'm so sorry I haven't been posting lately, I've been super super busy. But recently my friends and I had a day out in the city and I thought I'd share that with you! 

The main reason we decided to hang out that day was because of the OneTeaspoon sale that was happening in Surry Hills. OneTeaspoon is a brand with amazing clothes (although sometimes the prices are more on the expensive side) that were having an 'End of lease sale' at their Surry Hills store on Crown street - and honestly, the sale was pretty good (up to 80% off for some things)
