Body Stuff:

 

Soap and Glory Sugar Crush Body Butter

 

I got this as a set for Christmas, and let me tell you, this smells just like cake, and that's why i love it so much! I will definitely be re buying this.

 

Soap and Glory The Righteous Body Butter

 

This has been my second favourite body butter, its for very dry skin, so it leaves your body super moisturised!

 

 

Soap and Glory Flake Away Body Polish

 

As you can see, Ive been loving soap and glory this month, i use this every time i go in the shower and it does the job!

 

Random:

Zoella Makeup Bag

If you have read the whats in my bag post, you'll know i keep all my makeup in this when i go out, plus its got a cute peter pan collar on the front!

Stila Hair Refresher

On the days when i don't feel like washing my hair, or i just need to give my hair some volume, i use this, it smells amazing too.

 

Books:

Username Evie by Joe Sugg

 

There's only one book for this month, and that's Joe Suggs Username Evie, i read this in two days, yes its that good! I love graphic novels with all the illustrations in them, i just think the drawings are amazing to look at! Definitely go buy this if you haven't already.

Fashion:

Boyfriend Jeans

Boyfriend jeans have been a big staple in 2015 and also 2016, so i wanted to buy a pair. These ones are from boohoo, they are such good quality, and i think everyone needs a pair in their wardrobe!

Films & TV:

About Time

This film made me cry...twice, I'm so happy i watched it, its one of those films that really makes you think. Go watch it now!

Pretty Little Liars Season 6

When pll came back for a 6th season i was ecstatic, i only started watching it at the start of 2015, but I'm all caught up now! I'm not going to spoil it but you have to watch it.

90210

I know I'm probably a bit late watching this, but a couple of years ago i tryed to get into it but i didn't, then towards the end of 2015 i rediscovered it and now I'm obsessed!

Music:

Pillow Talk by Zayn

If you haven't listened to this, where have you been! I didn't know what to expect, but i was pleasantly surprised, its been in my head for quite a while now.

The Sound by The 1975

This band is also another rediscovery, i am in love with the lead singers voice, I'm not usually into this kind of music, well i am now!

Whats In My Bag 2016

Hello everyone, welcome back to my blog! I don't know if Ive ever done a what's in my bag, but that's what I'm sharing with you today!

So first i have my phone, i cant go anywhere without it! The case is a rilakuma one and i got it of amazon.

Next we have my purse which i got in Leeds somewhere, i cant remember, but i really need to get a new one! And also a spare deodorant, just in case.

Then i have my oyster card in this holder for when i go to London on the underground (which i hardly ever do), and a little compact mirror.

And finally i have my makeup in this Zoella makeup bag, which is adorable! I have Stay Matte powder from Rimmel, a Maybelline lip liner and a brush.

Sorry the contents of my bag isn't that exciting! Also from now on I'm going to be posting every week (yay Maya has a schedule!)

Recent Pintrest Finds

Hello everyone, welcome back to my blog! Today's post is quite a laid back one, Ive been loving pintrest recently and i wanted to share with you some of the things that i found, enjoy!

Puppy Chow Cookies

These look absolutely heavenly, these are definitely something i would love to make!

Vegan Birthday Cake

I follow Aspyn Ovard on pintrest and she has this amazing board with loads of healthy but yummy foods, and being a food junkie this delicious looking cake caught my eye. 

Strawberry and Banana Lollies

Now on to the healthy stuff, Ive always wanted to try and make my own lollies, so this is for sure going on my list of things to make over the summer!

Dotted Blouse

On to fashion, i have been obsessing over blouses lately, and i love everything about this one! Especially the dots!

Printed Blouse

Oh look here's another blouse, this one looks amazing with the shorts that the model is wearing!

Aztec Jacket

Now onto my other fashion obsession, bright and colourful jackets or coats, I'm not sure this is Aztec print, but i couldn't find another word to describe it. If anyone has seen one like this let me know because I'm in love!

Floral Rain Coat

This one is so cute, again if anyone can find one similar to this, i would be eternally grateful!

Purple Eyeshadow Look

Ive been getting more into purple eyeshadow, as apparently brown eyes suit purple a lot! This one looks so good, I'm going to have to try it out!

So that's it for now, comment below your opinions and don't forget to follow and like as always.

See you soon,
