The return of Anila's Armadio!

Some of you may have been wondering where I've been or why I haven't been posting and most importantly whether I've stopped blogging altogether, but if you're reading this you would have probably guessed that is definitely not the case! So rest assure as all the above will be explained. So where do I start? Well, the main reason for my disappearance these past 3 weeks or so was due to my holiday to America! (Nyc to be exact!) I jetted off to the the land of opportunity on the 27th of January, where I spent 14 days living one of my dreams! It was my first ever independent holiday, where I paid for it completely myself, including my expenses for whilst I was out there. It was also the first time I travelled alone (and let's just say that was an experience, in itself!) To be very honest this holiday in general has taught me a lot about myself, and has made me realise that I am a much stronger person than I thought I was. I definitely feel those two weeks made me grow as an individual and into an adult! I am very proud of myself!

Now that cheesy ramble is out of the way let's get onto the juicy stuff! I had a jam packed 14 days. But everyday was a new adventure for me, and everyday another one of my wishes would come true, one after the other! Whether it be visiting a place that I had only ever seen on TV, or in pictures (the hotel that home alone 2 was filmed in, and Central Park) or shopping in shops I had only ever dreamed of shopping in! All of it was truly amazing and they are definitely 14 days that I will never ever forget!  

Seeing as I managed to do a hell of a lot of shopping and sightseeing, I've decided to create a three part series of my trip to New York, and the first one is going to be a beauty haul! Prepare yourselves! It's a big one! Can I just say I feel as if sephora had some sort of power over me! It knew I was weak! As I began to find myself in sephoras daily, and visited at least 6 different store locations! Let's not count how many times I visited each store! (Shamefully hides behind hands)

I've decided the second installment of my three part series will be a fashion related haul including the souvenirs I picked up along the way! 

And the third and last installment will be a  summary of my time in New York City in pictures, of the places I visited, including some of my personal favourites! 

I hope these posts are something to look forward to, as I myself cannot to share my experience with you all and show you all exactly what I got up to! I also hope this makes up for the lack of posts whilst I was away and being MIA! But I am back! And have been for exactly a week now! But getting used to the time difference was definitely a whole challenge altogether, but I am ready to dive back into blogging, fully recharged and full of post ideas, just waiting to be typed up, so I hope you're all ready! 

Stay safe! Stay lovely!
