As some of you may know, Kev and I recently celebrated our 2 year anniversary.
Routinely, like every year, Kev and I bought each other
something special. Although this year we thought we would spend a little less than
what we would normally.
Our relationship isn’t built on money and material items and
I wanted that to be clear.
Nonetheless, I wanted to share with you what Kev purchased for
me for our 2 years – I’m not going to lie, I did secretly help him pick this
out. Guilty as charged.
And that was the Yankee Candle: Clean Cotton.
I’ve been quite obsessed with candles and anything pretty
for some time now, but just recently I stumbled upon Yankee Candles.
I’m at the point of no return.
They come in such unique scents, such as mine “Clean Cotton”
which matter-of-factly does smell like clean linen.
I could let the candle burn all day and not get sick of it.
Not to mention, it goes with the theme of my room: White,
clean and crisp.
What’s your favourite brand of candle?
Yankee Candles do have really unique scents. Their pomegranate lemonade one is pretty stellar. Loving the elegance of these photographs..
ReplyDeleteI'm waiting until I get my own home (must finish education first!) because at the moment my room is so cluttered from childhood things that I feel like you wouldn't even be able to notice a candle! I love smelling Yankee Candles though and one day I will get one! I'm such a wintery, homely scent person so the ones I like at usually cinnamon etc, but I guess I haven't tried many others!

Ah! Clean cotton, baby powder, & strawberry are my faves by Yankee! When you light them all together they make THE best smell xx

ahhh! I really want a Yankee candle, they are so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI am also so envious of the awesome white and minimal, classy theme you've got going on the blog Jes! xx
Happy anniversary! Nice photos!
ReplyDeleteIadore your blog. So stylish :)
ReplyDeleteI have never seen a Yankee candle anywhere (once again, the trials of living in NZ), but there is this local company that makes really lovely candles, I have a blue one in my room called sea mint. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm not really into candles but it is fun to celebrate anniversaries by giving something to one another! :) It doesn't necessarily mean that the relationship was based on material things, etc :) My man and I do the same and it makes both of us happy to be giving something other than actually receiving ;)
