Mother & Daughter Treat Day

Last Wednesday myself and my Mother went to Windsor town for the afternoon and it ended up being a lovely day. I woken up and thought to myself "I want a manicure and Shellac" as I was feeling crap, down and not myself so off we went to town .I went to a place called Images which for Windsor it quite reasonable price, the place was big, clean and very friendly. So I picked my colour (RED) and she started doing the manicure and My mother sat behind me waiting and I said get a pedicure done I will treat you and for about 20 minutes she was like no but finally in the end I convinced her that she needed to be pampered. So off she went to sit in the pedicure area and my nails were done soon as Mother started her feet as Shellac don't take long. Mine cost £25 which I thought for a proper manicure and shellac was good price and Mother got the Image Express Pedicure which was £25 and she was there for a good hour so I sat on the leather chairs in the waiting area and I was actually relaxing just sitting there and watching the world go by. The salon played relaxing music, the room was bright white light and the chairs was so comfortable that I could of easily fallen asleep haha.

 This was the manicure area and the chair was so comfy, everything was clean and plenty of magazines to read.

 

I sneakly took a picture of my Mother while she was getting her manicure done haha. It did look so relaxing to be honest but I don't think I would be able to sit there for an hour because of my Back and Colitis. My mother has got awful feet haha but after this treatment her feet were so soft and smooth. Defiantly worth the money.

Sorry for the bad quality of picture but you get the idea. They used OPI Gel Colours and I picked the colour called "BIG RED APPLE" which is exactly what I wanted. I am bit of a Red nail lover and Bright Red by Barry M is the one colour I always wear so I wanted to have a bright red. I've always had natural/nude colours whenever I've had Shellac before so I thought I would go for something different and I love it. For me having this which will last 3weeks or more is ideal. I am forever painting my nails and I swear all my medication has made my nails very dry and bad to the point where none nail polishes was lasting long so a shellac is very ideal for me. I will defiantly go back the place and maybe have another random colour.

 



After the salon we really fancied a coffee so we went to Esquires Coffee Shop which is right in the heart of Windsor town so it was really busy but we got a nice seat and we just sat and chilled for abit before we started shopping. I had a flat white and Mother had a iced coffee and to be honest it was nice!!! Much prefer Costa.

We then done TK MAXX, LUSH, H&M, NEXT and DORATHY PERKINS aka sorry bank balance. 90% of the stuff I brought were for Ava & Bella hahah. I love nothing more than buying for my Nieces to be honest. We got a pizza from Marks & Spencers, got a taxi back and then had a chilled evening. It was just a mother and daughter day and night and it was so nice. For the first time ever we didn't have an argument hahah.

Having two chronic illnesses, depression, anxiety and panic attacks means I don't go out much and also constantly feeling crap so this totally cheered me up. It doesn't cost much to cheer yourself up and treating my mother to a pedicure actually cheered me up as she was happy. I will defiantly try and make this a thing once a month.

Love Katie x
