Like I said in a previous review, it's difficult to gauge a florist's level of artistry without…read moreordering one for a particular occasion, but if wandering through Aspirations was any indication of the owner's skill (and quality of flowers!), then I'd be willing to order a bouquet from here anytime. Some of the flowers were so faultless, I had to touch them to see if they were real. And all of them were. Long-stemmed roses peeked from a small container, exquisite and sweet smelling. I definitely would have bought a bouquet if I were heading home! Like any reputable florist, Aspirations carries a range of stuffed toys, balloons, tiaras, fascinators, and vases to accompany the bespoke creations. The ladies here are quite friendly, but seemed a bit curious as to why I was browsing a flower shop without any reason to do so. Aspirations also offers a jewellery cleaning service, just ask a member of staff for more information.

Butterflies is a quaint gifts and stationery store located on Barry's high street that offers a…read morerange of items including gift wrap, greeting cards, and specialty soaps (and bath bombs!). I also found an alarming amount of Christmas goods, which is a reminder I just don't need at the moment. People who shop for holiday items this far in advance make me feel inadequate and I just don't appreciate it. Sigh. Anyway, the main draw for me was the extensive range of Yankee Candle products that are housed in their own room off the back of the store. The shelves were quite bare, which is because the autumn range is due in soon, if the sign on the wall is to be believed. I wasn't aware that Yankee Candles varied according to the season! The shop assistant was happy to let me wander the shop at my leisure, making it an enjoyable shopping experience.

Set against the cacophony of one of the world music CDs (taken straight off the shelf), my time in Waterlily was the highlight of my morning, which had been marked by rain, wind and freezing temperatures. The owner had popped out for a few minutes, so her mate was watching the shop, and this chatty lady was talking to me as if she had known me for years. I dug through the gift wrap, and when I failed to find the one I wanted (which was tacked to the wall as a part of a display), she took that one down and rolled it up for me. I'm a sucker for vintage-style goodies, especially when they're on sale. Waterlily is a bit like Polka Dot in Mermaid Quay, but more reasonably priced. I managed to buy two sets of gift wrap (boasting swear words and all!) and five specialty greeting cards for less than £4. I am so coming back here.
