#PlanWithGeorgina: Where to get planner supplies in London UK?


As my planner obsession grows, I now spend my free time to go looking for washi tapes rather than lipsticks. In the UK, card making community is much larger than planner decorations. Cute washi tapes and cute stickers are lacking. The most obvious places to go would be Hobby Craft, WH Smiths, Paperchase and stationery section of department stores, or order online from Etsy.

However, I just prefer to hold the stuff in hand rather than looking online. I have found a few more options apart from the obvious mentioned above.


1 - Tiger
A Danish homeware store. They stock homeware, kitchenware, gardening stuff, snacks and stationery. In the stationery and craft section, they often have cute sticky notes and notepads. Recently they have a few packs of washi tapes!! Their stock change seasonally, so if you see anything you like, get them right away!
2 - Hema
Hema is a Dutch brand. They have three stores in the UK (Victoria, Bromley and Kingston). Similar to Tiger, they also stock a variety to homeware, snacks, stationery and beauty supplies too! I don't visit Hema often enough, but I suspect their stock also changes regularly. If you are not in London, you can now order online from http://www.hemashop.com/gb.
3 - Caroline Gardiner
Caroline Gardiner shop is on the cute Marylebone High Street.  Their homeware and stationery are with Caroline Gardiner's own print - cute animals and floral patterns. They are so cute that you cannot find them anywhere else.
4 - JP Books
JP Books sell Japanese magazines and books, but their small stationery shelves often have cute washi tapes and beautiful origami papers from Japan. I love going there from time to time to just stare at their cute stuff. They also stock a selection of Midori Traveller notebooks.

Tuesday means... Steak night at Wetherspoon!

"Are you serious?" I know what you are thinking. Wetherspoon pubs have revamped their menu and food quality, but the price has stayed low.

Budget Buy: MUA nail polish in Natural Days

When I was in Superdrug to buy the Tiffany colours (NYC nail polishes  - check out my blog post here ), as the offer was 3 for 2 across all nail polishes, I picked up a MUA polish as my freebie. I saw this pastel baby pink colour in Natural Days. The colour looks really cute in the bottle.

Estee Lauder Enlighten Dark Spot Correcting Night Serum

Lately I have been obsessed with the Estee Lauder Enlighten Dark Spot Correcting Night Serum . In the past I tried the Kiehl’s Clearly Corrective Dark Spot Solution, it was alright but I didn’t find the result that amazing. So when I got a sample of for this Estee Lauder Enlighten Serum, I didn’t have high hopes … But how wrong I was! The sample bottle lasted me for two generous weeks and after that I rushed out to get the full size. Although it is called a serum, it is a light milky lotion texture, it is easily absorbed into skin and it feels moisturising. With the sample bottle, I used it every night after my cleansing routine. I can see visible results to my face after two weeks. My blemish marks are significantly lighter (my main concern) and the skin tone for the rest of my face is visibly more even.  Now I have the full size bottle (30ml, also available in 50ml size), I am going to follow the instructions to use it both day and night. Use it at night to reduce
