October Favourites | 2015


Hello everyone, as you know monthly favourite posts are my favourite to write, so i think i will just get on with it! Enjoy x

Makeup:

Collection Contour Kit

In one of Zoella's favourite videos she received one of these in the post, and she obviously loved it so i had to pick one up! This contour shade is gorgeous, it is super pigmented and blends really well. As for the highlight, it gives an amazing glow for the top of your cheekbones.
£4.19 from Boots



Beauty Blender

I have been using my beauty blender over my brushes recently, just because i think it blends my face makeup better! So i thought i'd put it in my favourites.
80p from Amazon

sorry its a bit mucky!

Tv & Films:

The Carrie Diaries

I had been meaning to watch this series for quite some time now, i wont give anything away but i am hooked on this show. Its quite different from all the other high school drama type programmes, as it is set in the 1980's. 


Scream Queens

I heard on twitter that there was going to be a show with Emma Roberts, Ariana Grande and loads of other amazing actors, i knew i had to watch it when the show premiered. Its spooky but also really funny too, it has just the type of humour i love! Go watch it if you havent already.



Saving Mr Banks

I only watched this movie yesterday, but i fell in love with it. It makes you laugh and cry, its one of those movies you can always go back to when your bored or just want a pick me up!


Music:

Hello by Adele

I think everyone and their cat has heard this song, but i thought id put it in here anyway. I've had this on repeat since it came out, Adele is one of the best singers out there! If for some reason you havent heard it then go give it a listen, you wont be disappointed!



Sorry by Justin Beiber

This is also a really popular song at the moment, this is so catchy too! 


Youtubers:

Eve Bennett

I have been loving smaller youtubers recently and Eve is one of my favourites, she is so genuine and funny. Plus her content is amazing, i could watch her all day!

Sarocha B

I also have been loving Sarocha's videos, her makeup videos are my favourite by far! 

Random:

Cacti

I recently went to Ikea and picked up a few bits and pieces for my room, i got this super tumblr looking cacti, it just adds a bit of green and i love that!



Candy Mountain from Lush

I wanted to check out the new christmas range from Lush so bad, so i went and  got Candy Mountain. This one was my first ever bubble bar, it smells amazing, plus its pink and glittery! This is perfect for a pamper evening.
£2.95



Butter Bear from Lush 

I also got butter bear which is the exact same as butter ball, but shaped as a cute little bear! This is so moisturising, its one of my favourite ever bath bombs!
£1.95


So thats it for the month of october, hope you liked it! Make sure you like this post and follow my blog!

See you soon,

Halloween Costume Inspiration



Hello everyone, I put together a halloween costume inspired by the amazing San Francisco resort at Fairmont Hotels , I also added my own creepy twist. Enjoy!

As this outfit is inspired by the beautiful San Francisco Resort, I wanted it to be very classy but still a little bit spooky, so i went with this gorgeous grey dress with black and white lace details (this is from Primark). I added these creepy cobwebs (from Tescos) to give it a bit more of a halloween feel. I paired this look with black knee high socks and some black combat boots, and there we go, a spooky ghoulish bride!



A big thank you to Fairmont Hotels for getting in touch, this was so much fun to put together! Dont forget to give this a like, and follow my blog too!

September Favourites | 2015


Hello everybody, time for another monthly favourites, you may or may not have noticed that i changed my blog name. I just wanted it to be a little more sophisticated and neat. So im really happy with how the header turned out. Enough rambling, lets get on with the favourites!

Makeup & Beauty:

Baby Lips in "Cherry Me"

This product has been in a lot of my blog posts, i always go back to this colour when it gets a little bit colder, and its so hydrating and thats why i always use it!


Barry M Nail Polish in "Almond"

Im pretty sure this has been in one of my blog posts is well, i just think its the perfect nude shade to wear in Autumn and Winter.



Tea Tree Oil

I have recently re-found my love for using tea tree oil, i cannot recommend this enough if you have spot prone skin (like mine). It helps reduce the appearance and it works like a dream!



Random:

Tangle Teaser

I got this a couple of years ago and i stopped using it for quite a while, i have very frizzy hair, which is really annoying, but this helps so much with that, and its the perfect handbag size.


Yankee Candle in "Christmas Eve"

I got the votive size just so i could test it out, and this is probably the best scented candle ever! It smells exactly like christmas and it fills your room with scent even when its not lit. I will definitely be going back to buy the full size!


Timotei Pure Conditioner 

This was just sitting in my cupboard, i ran out of my old conditioner and decided to try this one out. Im so glad did, it makes your hair so smooth and shiny, its unbelievable! You should 100% try this out for yourself, thank me later;)


Fashion:

H&M Mustard Jumper

I first saw a jumper like this in one of MyLifeAsEva's videos, it was basically love at first sight, and i found this one on the H&M website. Its such good quality and so comfy too.


New Look Floral Shorts

I have been looking for some of these shorts for a while now, and i picked these up at new look, all i can say is they are super comfy and great quality for the price!


New Look Speckled Jumper

I wanted to stock up on my knit wear as its getting colder outside, i love this design, its really casual and so soft too!


Tv and Films:

Teen Wolf

My tv favourite for this month has to be Teen Wolf, you have probably seen it already, but if you havent, you should, right now! Its so engaging and addicting, i can't wait for season 5B to come out. Plus you have to agree Dylan O'Brien is a bit too good looking!

sorry its super blurry:\
 Tomorrowland

My movie fave for this month is Tomorrowland, if you love futuristic movies, this is for you. I really want there to be a 2nd one!


Music:

Wildest Dreams by Taylor Swift

This song has been on repeat for the last week, yes thats how catchy it is. But seriously, this song is amazingly written. Go listen to it!

 Colors by Halsey

I love all of the Badlands album, but this has to be my favourite!

Thats all for this month, make sure to give this a like, and follow my blog too! 

see you soon,
