Hello my little Vintage Darlings ♡ 

Sunday’s are my favorite day of the week. It’s day of resting and relaxation before a new magical week starts. I like to spend my Sundays wearing romantic dresses, listening to soft music, and sipping tea. Often times I like to reflect on the things I enjoy most and with today being one of those enchanting Sundays, I wanted to share the little things in life that make me the happiest. ♡

Soft sunlight peaks through the delicate, rosy curtains as the world begins to awake. Long lashes fluttering, I slowly open my eyes, awakening from the land of dreams.

Pushing back the light shabby chic blankets, I gracefully stretch my hands over my head before stepping out of bed for the day. Tip toeing over to the door, I place my feathery slipper on my feet and grab my vintage satin robe.

I’ve been longing for an enchanting day where I could frolic around my own little princess dream land and feel at peace; to let all my stressed melt away like a Lush Bath bomb. To truly start treating myself like the delicate princess I want to be and have a fancy pamper day. I’m extremely delighted to be making today that magical day!

The first thing I’m doing on this beautiful winter morning is taking care of my skin. The chilly winter wind can be harsh on skin, so to help it I like to gently exfoliate my face whenever I need it. I then follow up with my new favorite face cleanser, Lancôme’s Crème-Mousse Confort Comforting Cleansing Creamy-Foam with Rose Extract. It’s gentle on delicate skin and smells like romantic roses in the spring. It’s the perfect thing to add to any princess’s morning routine!

After finishing up in the bathroom, I skip off to my fancy closet/makeup room where I plan to spend the day frolicking around and doing glamorous things. Personally this area of the house is my favorite place to spend time being cozy and escaping the rest of the world. It’s my own special fairytale hideaway filled with all my favorite things. I’ve made the area so girly and sweet that it’s impossible to not feel like a princess when entering.

As I enter my own personal dream land, I choose a candle to light. Wanting a soft & dainty scent, I go with my Tea & Lemon candle. It makes the entire room smell like I’m at a vintage tea party. Before lighting it, I sprinkle just a bit of fairy dust over it for an added magical touch. 

Turning on some soft music, I take a seat in front of my vanity. Audrey Hepburn’s dreamy voice is singing Moon River in the background as I begin to do my makeup for the day. I’ve currently been loving the Anastasia Beverly Hills shadow in Pink Champagne. It’s such a gorgeous and light shade; perfect for a princess! It also happens to share the same name as my favorite bubbly drink and song.

With my makeup completed, I shake out my long red velvet hair from its ponytail. Reaching for my favorite leave in conditioner, I begin to gently brush out any tangles before adding like curls to my hair. Pulling a few pieces of hair back, I secure them with delicate pearl bobby pins. To finish off my hair, I add my tiara.

“Life’s more enchanting wearing a tiara.” ♡

Reaching for my tulle Victoria’s Secret champagne and rose gold robe, I put it on and feel even more princess like. The robe is so light and airy, it just makes me feel so fancy. The sleeves are ruffled out and there’s rose gold stars sprinkled all over it. It’s such a whimsical design.

Wanting to dress up today, I pirouette over to where the closet side of the room is. I run my fingers over the delicate fabrics; feeling the dainty lace and the soft faux furs until my hands brush over what I’m looking for, the unmistakable feeling of gorgeous tulle.

I simply love dressing up in tulle, especially on days like today. It’s just so lavish and elegant that it can make anyone feel like a princess the second they slip into it.

Picking out a sweater to go with my pink tulle skirt, I immediately feel more myself after putting on the outfit. The beautiful tulle skirt makes me feel ethereal and free as I twirl around. It makes me feel dreamy and angelic, like I’m finally myself. It makes me want to continue to twirl around and dance, which is exactly what I do. Putting on my most favorite song Pink Champagne by Ariana Grande, I feel happy and free as I dance and twirl away.

With the smell of my tea and lemon candle still entangling itself in the room, I’m inspired to sip tea out of a dainty teacup. Reaching for my Lady Grey tea bags, I cut up some fresh lemons and start to brew some tea. The smell of tea and lemon is now wafting throughout the whole house; the smell soft and warm.

When the tea is ready, I pour it into my Royal Albert Rose Confetti teapot. I absolutely adore Royal Albert’s vintage china as it’s so girly and enchanting. It’s the perfect china for a fancy tea party!

While the tea cools, I take out my matching Rose Confetti teacup and saucer; the dainty floral print of this collection makes me feel like a princess at tea time. Pouring myself a steaming cup of tea, I take a seat on the couch in my makeup room, resting against the rosy pillows. With a fluffy blush pink blanket gingerly wrapped around my shoulders, I prepare to have a princessy movie marathon with movies like Cinderella, Beauty and the Beast, Roman Holiday, Marie Antoinette, and of course one of my all time favorites, The Aristocats. As the end of the day draws near and the stars are starting to sprinkle across the night sky, I welcome the night with a fancy bath.

As the warm bath water fills the tub and the lavender bubbles increase, I gently wipe the makeup from my face. With my dreamy rose scented cleanser, my face is left bare and smooth with only my long, dark lashes left. With my face clean, I apply my sparkling champagne and strawberries face mask. 

Putting on my fluffy blush pink robe and tying up my silky waist length hair, I leave my tiara on as I go choose a bath bomb. Deciding on the snow fairy bath bomb from Lush, I drop it in the bubbly water. It starts melting away, allowing the angelic, sweet smell of snow fairy to flutter around the bathroom like a beautiful butterfly.

To make this lavish princess bath even dreamier, I crush up a bit of Lush’s sunny side bubble bar; adding the magical touch of fairy dust.

As my blush robe shimmies to the floor, I step into the beautiful pink, sparkling water. The warmth engulfs my body as I sink lower beneath the bubbles and glitter. Sighing with contentment, I feel at ease.

Before the end of my delightful bath, I softly cover my body in Lush’s Snow Fairy Body Conditioner, letting it soak into my skin before rinsing it off.

Drying off with the fluffiest towel, I apply Victoria’s Secret Heavenly (my absolute favorite scent from there) lotion on my body before slipping into darling After Hours Satin Pajamas.

Cozy, relaxed, and at peace, I glide back into my shabby chic princess bed. Scream Queens plays quietly in the background as I drift off back to dream land after a sublime day. ♡

I hope this enchanting blog inspires all of you out there to take time for yourselves and to treat yourselves like the beautiful princesses you are ♡
