Well this is a first for me as I never ever thought I would run a blog until my friend suggested it. I decided that for my first post I would talk about Cardiff, the capital city of Wales. This is due to the fact that I spent 4 hours there today.
Cardiff, for a small town girl like me, is big and brash and I pretty much love it. I went with my friend Laura for some good old fashioned window shopping, as neither of us currently have the funds to do anything more extravagant. John Lewis and Debenhams makeup departments kept us busy for the majority of the time. I learned the use of highlighters and actually got to see the Urban Decay Naked & Vice Pallets first hand.
Cardiff is rife with experienced gurus, my friend included, and the manic shoppers of Primark brought out my primal self. Christmas decorations were already in some shops despite the fact that it's October, but nothing can take away the atmosphere that Cardiff offers, it's warm and vibrant but still has the hustle and bustle you expect of a City, but to me, It just feels like home.
Whats more, when your used to the same old shops in Towns such as Newport and Cwmbran, Cardiff can be a real breath of fresh air. Change of scenery is always a must.
Laura treated me to a Starbucks Spiced Pumkin Latte, I am now in love. I need, need, need another one before they go until next year. I don't like these limited edition items, weather it's a drink or a makeup, because I am bound to find something I love and then destined to have to wait another 11 months until I can enjoy them again.
