New year and new monthly edition of ihearthomes subscription. It's a theme mix of thank you, friendship and following your dream's from my understanding of the content's. This is the £15.00 box, which i subscribe to with my own money.

- "Live & Dream" wall plaque 
This plaque is colourful and bright to usher in the new year and wave goodbye to winter for another year. It's perfect as a gift to anyone starting a journey with a new home or change up any area's in need of that little pizzaz of colour. Metal feeling and very well made.  

- Floral photo frame by Sass & Belle
Sass & Belle are really ihearthomes subscription box hero's. Every month we recieve a beautiful item from there collection which compliment's the theme perfectly. This floral frame has "follow your dream's" written within the space until you can find a photo to place inside. Thank you again Sass & Belle. 


- Hummingbird keyring & pencil
This keyring reminds me of the Sass & Belle style and i adore it. So well made on a rose golden tinted metal, with a vibrant colourful floral print within to compliment. It's a beautiful and unique item that il be showing with pride. 

Pencil : Now everyone need's a pencil and notepad within there bag, place you write ideas's or information. Handy and very cute stationary addition for this month. 

- Make your own bunting kit
When i saw this kit i thought it again was a beautifully colourful addition to make for an event or just add some unique room decor.  


- Zebra paper clip's
Perfect for my planner and notebook's to keep important documents attached but also reusable. There are 3 clips included and these are made by Sass & Belle. They will add a new and fun dimension to my planner.

- Candy striped baggy full of sweet's
The candy stiped bag in each month of ihearthomes contain's a surprise. This month it contained some fruity milk bottle sweet's. They were lovely and a perfect little snack to have whilst looking at the content's if the box. 



- Friendship saying
This saying plaque is beautiful and it would be the perfect gift to your closest friend whom you may not see regularly. The presentation is stunning and really does make this a unique gift. 

- Inspirational card
These card's i find are the perfect inserts for parcel's, I tend to write a note on the back for the reciever to read. I have kept some that i do like to interchange within a frame on my dresser. It help's give inspiration and happiness depending on your need for that week. 

- Aromatherapy soap cube 
This little soap cube is jelly in texture but smell's of a floral & fruity mix. It is a really beautiful scent and my skin from just unwrapping the paper feels so soft. The oils are definatly present and im going to be using this soap today. Below is a little information about the company. 

"Om Shanti Aromatherapy products offer handmade artisan bath bombs, bath salts, soaps and candles. This company has been born out of a love for aromatherapy and holistic wellbeing. Our aromatherapy products use 100% pure essential oils. Essential oils are obtained by extracted the pure oil from the plant. These oils can help to alter mood, and evidence suggests that they help with psychological and physical wellbeing."


In conclusion : This box was beautifully presented this month and amazingly well constructed. Most of these item's i have planned to gift to some of my closest friend's in thanks for there continued love and support through probably one of my most difficult year's. 



Too end is my mantra for the year and ultimate goal for improving positivity.

My Little Box aims to delight and surprise you every month. It is a hand-picked and beautifully designed box. Containing fashion, beauty and lifestyle surprises. Other goodies created exclusively for you and based around a different theme every month. Each box promises to delight for the lucky recipient.


Inside the box :

(including one from our own in-house beauty range, My Little Beauty) 

- Fashion and lifestyle accessories 
- Our magazine (My Little World) 
- Illustrated goodies by Kanako 
- And other surprises


You can opt out of our monthly subscription anytime you want - no mess, no fuss. 
So the theme of this months box is "My little parisenne box"


So within this box you will find a different feel. Its not all beauty, this has treats in the form of chic stationary etc. Its something new and for those looking for a change. I love to explore new fresh idea subscribtion boxes. 



So in this months box :

- Beauty bag containing 
 Laura Mercier primer
NUXE oil 
Illuminating concealer pen
- Stationary goodies
Journal with "My little box's story" in the first 5 pages
Very chic stickers 
- Geek chic goody
 Laptop / Ipad cover


First of all the bag is really cute and can be used for travel. Within the beauty bag was a huge surprise, by the quality of the products. 
Now the NUXE oil is a product I've used and i can say without a doubt this is an excellent product. Im so thrilled with this addition.
Then the second pick in the bag, the Laura mercier foundation primer. Im amazed at the quality within this beauty bag, its high end with generous full sized samples.
Now the third product is the boxes own brand to try. This is lovely as french cosmetics and skincare, are always of high quality. I have the illuminator pen, I will happily report back to how this product works. So the beauty bag gets a massive thumbs up.


Now this is my cup of tea, i love journals to write lists and note down ideas. This journal is a high quality and thick, so that you will be able to write a lot of content. Then you have some amazingly cute sticker art to use if you so wish. These are just so chic and not childish at all, which may surprise people to know. Or might just be me in that i love all things kooky and outside of the box. They are high quality products with a beautiful artist touch.Im proud to have this at appointments, just sitting and writing my thoughts. 


My last product was a laptop cover which is beautifully made and so soft. Its currently protecting my ipad and has space for my notepad when im in hospital. Ive enjoyed taking this to hospital and i will insert a picture on my instagram. Its a box full of surprises  and beautiful addition's.


I am so glad i saw this box on my friends blog then subscribed. Its worth every penny, for those of use bogged down with samples. If you are craving something new and inspired, then i recommend fully "My little box UK". Im excited for next month as its unique. 

Do you subscribe to "My little box?"
