YELLOW | FASHION

FASHION

Hiya lovely, today's post is about whats new in fashion and is dedicated to the colour yellow.

Weird i know but yellow is really making a come back, and  it's everywhere.

It is super retro and adds a fun pop of colour to any outfit, perfect for transitioning from  spring to summer time. 

Yello has connotations of sun and summer and really can just brighten up your life. 

Thank you for reading my post today, and cheers to my good friend Shannon for being my model for this little photoshoot. I hope you have a fab day and I will see you soon. 

MOM JEANS | FASHION

FASHION

Hey gorgeous, there is a new fashion CRAZE and if you have not heard of it then where have you been?

Mom jeans are so in right now but can be heard to work with, here are a couple of ideas to give you a helping hand!

Here is one cute yet grungey option, A kind of effortless just rolled out of bed look.

One thing i love about mom jeans is that they are so versatile and can go with so many different looks, from casual to smart to vintage and everywhere in between.

They also work for  so many different body shapes and sizes and aren't too tight/fitted either so you can get away with them even after you have had one too many Reece's buttercups.

Plus, you can also find them really cheaply in pretty  much a thrift store but they still look as if they are strait  outta Urban Outfitters.

To accessorise them and make them your own try adding a chunky belt or some sort of boots.

THANK YOU so much for reading, have a fab week and i will see you soon.

Hey there gorgeous!

Hope you are having a fab day, recently i got my done and i bloody love it.

I got it balayaged which is kind of when it fades into a  lighter colour. So for me it went from light ish ginger to lighter ginger/ blonde. As you can tell it is hard to explain so  i will let the pictures speak for me...

Before  hand it was way too long, spindly and super uneven.  That might be because one day i  got bored and decided to cut it myself, it wasn't one of my best ideas (don't try this at home kids).

Its super natural and a little change like this can make the biggest difference. If you are thinking about getting your hair done in a curtain way i would say  just go for it because at the end of the day it is only hair and it will grow back.

I hope you enjoyed today's little post and i  will see you very soon but in the mean time why not check out my Youtube channel?  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOwoMa5FUxhWI6DzdTVJFag

Byeeee x

Don't give a damn!

Hey there lovely, hope you are  doing well!

As you can probably see by the quite obvious title, today's post is all abut not giving a crap and it is as simple as  that.

I have  learnt over my 15 years (that's not very long but lets just roll with it) that curtain people are irrelevant in your life and that their opinions of you mean absolutely nothing.  In fact in a couple of years time you will probably leave them for good, never see them again and forget all about them. So don't let their  cloud rain on you now.

Ifit is something  that makes you happy then go for it YOLO (i  know yolo died back  in 2013 but hay ho).  If you want to wear blue lipstick then girl rock that  blue lip like your life depends on it. And if you want to go out in your pj's then  i don't blame you, hell i will join  you!

If  they want to go talking smack about your sheep onsie then you're not even going to bother listening you just strut past not giving a damn. Because no one can stop you from doing what makes you happy (apart from  maybe teachers because they are complete buzz kills but outside of school, girl you are  free and you better spread those  wings).

In summary what i am trying to say is you will be so much happier and have such a better life if now and again you just simply didn't care so much about  what other people thought of you or what others might think. I  hope my post helped you out in someway, and i will  see you soon. 

 Gooood bye! 

Raise boys and girls the same!

Heyy guys, how are you all doing on this fine day!

I just thought I would talk about an important issue that I think people don't talk about enough because they are too busy talking about how much bigger Kim Kardashion's bum can get.

We need to teach our girls:

There is more to life than finding your prince because princes live in castles and castles freak me out.

They can do whatever sport they want, if it makes them happy who cares what others say.

Boys aren't dumb.

No one can lay a hand on them without their permission.

To not let anyone tell them to cover up or stop down.

We need to teach our boys: 

It's okay to cry and good to express your emotions.

Girls are not sissies. 

They can like flowers, fashion and fluffy things.

Women and girls are people not objects.

Health is important acting 'hard' isn't. 

We need to teach both: 

You can say no.

Respect no.

Violence is never okay.

There is no seeker sex.

Everyone has a voice so let  it be heard!

It is okay to like whoever you want, it doesn't change you as a person and it shouldn't define you.


Thank you  so much for reading my post i know it is a bit of a boring  one but   it is a subject that needs to be spoken about more. I hope you are doing amazingly and i will see you soon!

Honesty.

Hiya lovely!

Recently i have been thinking about this a lot and what the difference is between being honest and being well a complete dick.  

For example if someone asks you  if they look nice in something and you thought they didn't then you  would say 'i think the other one hugs your curves better'  or  something a long those lines. However  some people say other things like 'no that makes you look fat' or horrible things like that  and say that they are just being 'honest'.  EXCUSE ME! There is a fine line between giving your honest opinion and being a down right bitch. Know the difference! 

Comments like that can hurt peoples feelings and lower their  self esteem.  So don't  be an idiot, we are all about peace and love in this world there  is no need for it. If you feel  the need to put others  down in order to feel better  then you have a problem. A problem that  won't be solved by carrying on doing what you are doing.

So be a good person aim  to give a compliment a day. Because we have all been in that situation where a complete stranger has walked past and you have gone DAMN her outfit is on point! But what if you told her that? Just imagine if someone came up to you and said that to you it would make, your, day! So why not do the same for someone else,  share a little sunshine why not?

I have completely  gone on a rant and forgotten what i was on about  but basically, being honest is great but don't take advantage of that and be an ass and be a nicer person now and again. What have you got to lose? I hope you  have a fab week and make at least one person smile (and i know it sounds cheesy af but you can't knock it till you try it). Byeeee.

How to grow your makeup collection

 Heya gorgeous!

Sorry it's been a loooong time, but i'm back and i want to get back into the swing of things! Let me know if you like the new style of things and any  posts that you would like to see from me. I have  also started up my Youtuber channel once again and am giving that ago ( https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOwoMa5FUxhWI6DzdTVJFag ). Again let me know  any videos that you would like to see from   me and that you would enjoy. On with the post...

I might  not have the biggest makeup  collection out there but it  is still  more than anyone would ever need in their whole life time. And i thought i would show you a couple of tips and tricks to get as much expensive but lovely makeup without breaking the bank (completely).

1. BOG OFF:

Go for all the deals like buy one get  one free they really make all the difference. Also   things like buying blush pallets instead of single  blushes may seem expensive at the time but really you get so much more  for  your money. I mean who doesn't love  a good bargain?

2.  LISTEN TO ADVICE:

If loads  of people say that it's good it usually means that it's good.

3. QUANTITY OR QUALITY:

What would you  rather have a a load of things that are rubbish, you will never use and a waist of money or things that you love. I  know what i would  rather choose!

Thank you  so much for reading this little post i hope it helped you out in some way. I hope you have an amazing day you deserve it!

Never forget me

I hope you you are well, so recently my best friend moved to the other side of the world. 

As soon as I found out she was moving I burst into tears. I balled like a baby and time went so quickly until the day I had to say good bye. Then it really hit me, that I may never see her ever again. We went out for a good bye meal and had such a great send off.

But then I remembered all the amazing times we have had together, all the laughter and private jokes. I am always worried that she will forget me but one thing is for sure, I will never forget her. 

She has been gone for 2 months now and everything is going good. The time difference doesn't help too much, 12 hours. But we are making it work so if a friend of yours moves away, have faith and stay string because things will be okay. 

Have an amazing day, see you soon. 

why i walk

Hey, how are you doing?

I'm really sorry i  haven't blogged  in  aaaages but i have been super busy, however  i am trying to get back into this and posting more regularly. So recently i  have   been doing lots   of waling in the evenings  and this  is why.

I have   been  doing this as a distress and to  get  away from everything like  family  and internet. It is such a nice time too have   some time alone and  just  think  about things. I have been doing this with my  music blasting out of  my  head phones, especially 'We don't have  to take  our  clothes off'  by Ella  Eyre.

The  other reason is an  obvious  one  because it is a great way to get a bit of gentle exercise after a long day of school  or work or whatever yo have. And by having a  bit of  exercise it makes you sleep better.

Not forgetting it is a great way to get some sunset snaps. I really hope you enjoyed this post and have an amazing day, byeeeee.

New puppy!

Hello gorgeous, how are you today?
So i am soooo excited a couple of weeks  ago i went t visit this tiny bundle of joy called Molly. She is a golden lab and has grown so much since i first saw her but she is still absolutely adorable. We have been dog sitting her for  a while and i thought i would share some photos of the first day i met her with you guys.

The last one is of my sister if you were wandering. Thank you so much for reading i hope this pictures made you smile and i hope you have a great day.  Have a good one!

Summer pros and cons

Hey, how are you today?

So good things and bad things about summer. What do you want first the good news or the bad news? If you said good then tough luck cause imma give you the bad first. Plus I really wanted to have a little rant. 

Firstly, I like heat but in summer it can sometimes just be too hot. If you wonna do anything like go for a walk or run and actually get fit you can't because you will be drowning in your own sweat 5 minutes into it. And by the end of it everyone else will be drowning in your sweat too, then it becomes a health hazard. Just don't go running you say? Then how am I meant to get a summer body? It's a hard life. 

Also I hate the fact that summer in the UK is not even like a summer. 6 out of the 7 weeks of my summer holidays are raining. So you cannot plan anything because the weather is so bloody unpredictable. And most days it's changes it's mind several times just like a girl changing clothes. And as a result of the constant changing weather I have to change clothes even more. 

I hate that in the evening it is really light which makes me stay up later and get less sleep meaning I am more of a zombie. But this also means in the evenings there a crap loads of migis. They are so annoying and ruin so many summer evenings. 

Finally, one of the most annoying things for me is that every time I walk out of the door I burn into a little red tomato. And most of the time this little tomato starts peeling too. It's a complete pain in both scenes of the word. 

On the other hand, I love summer because there is little or no school at all. No more needed to be said on that just freedom. 

I really like summer fashion even though I am as pale as paper I still try to get a tan and rock those outfits. One of my favourite colours to wear is white and it's a perfect summer colour and also make ghosts like me look a little more tanned. 

It's an amazing time to create memories with friends and family, some of my best times are in summer. Maybe even have a summer romance if you are lucky. I love the way that you can just wake up and doing anything, there are no rule (basically) you can make whatever you want out of your day. I also have a lot more motivation in the summer to get out of bed and actually do things. 

Thankyou so much for reading, sorry for the huge  rant i just neede to get it out of my system, I hope to see you soon! 

George Ezra Concert (best night of my life)

Hello gorgeous, thanks for stopping by!

I can't put into words how AMAZING this was, but scene as this is a blog post i am going to have to. I am talking about George Ezra in concert! If you do not kknow who he is then have you been living under a rock? because he is so big at the moment especially in the UK. And i can really see why.

It isn't just the fact that i saw him performing live that excited me it was center stage, front row! Can it get any better? Yes, yes it can because i was with some of my best friends singing having a fun time (as you do at concerts). Next thing  i knew he was looking at me so i smiled and guess what, he smiled at my smile! I completely fan girled, even my friend standing next to me saw it so it must have been true (not just my imagination).

When on stage he told us a little story, he said he came down to cornwall (where i live) on holiday and was in a little local pub in which a band called Me and the evil were playing. Not a big band in the slightest, just a group of old men (not meaning to offend them but that is what they were). They played really nice original and covers of blues songs, George really liked them so he asked them to be his support act. I thought that was really sweet and humble of him. Surprisingly i really liked them.

George Ezra is an amazing performer and i really recommend you go see him if you ever get a chance! If you have never heard of him or any of his songs then again where have you been? and i will link some below.  It might not sound like your type of music to begin with but listen to the whole sing and more than one because they are all very different in my opinion.

Listen to the man - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZS0WvzRVByg

You beauty unboxing

Hey there lovely, I hope your having a good day today! 

I always get really excited when opening something like this because it's like a mini Christmas or your birthday  and i just really want to know what is inside. Therefore i recent decided to give a beauty box a go and u wanted to try Ipsy, however they only ship to America and I am far from there. Consequently, I am on the hunt for the best British one for people like myself who cannot get their hands on beauty boxes like Ipsy. 

You beauty discovery is £6.49 a month and you get to choose 2 things from a short list of minis. Then they send you a couple of other products they think you may like. 

In this short list was a body butter, tanning things, a brush and Calvin Klein lipstick (which i really liked the look of but it was out off stock, just my luck) and various a different skin care bits and bobs.  

I chose:

Inka - organic pure primer, 

Amie - facial wash & matte moisteriser. 

They also added: 

Urban fruit - smashing straw berry snack,

Clipper - organic teas (red fruit & aronia berry and organic green tea),

Good to go anywhere -  wipes.

I haven't tried the products yet, but when I do I will let you know how I get on with them. Price wise this is a little cheaper than some of the other boxes but only by a couple of quid. On the other hand i thought there would be more beauty related gifts, however if you are into that sort of thing then try   this.  I'm not 100% sue if this was worth the money but that may have just been this month.

Thank you so, so much for reading and i hope to see you very soon!

Summer spirit

Hey, hope your doing well!

I was sitting in the garden earlier and started to feel so much more summary (finally) and thought I would show you what I do to get in the summer spirit. Because if you live in the UK like me then you will know how hard it is to get in a summer mood when the weather doesn't want too. 

Things you need for a good old sunbath, either in the gorgeous garden or on the beautiful beach. 

Firstly you need a drink too stop you from getting dehydrated, I had peach iced tea which is such a summary drink that I love so much and everytime I have it, it just rinds me of summer in Spain.

My next essential is a book, if your not a book person then maybe try a magazine because it just really helps to relax you. Anyway, the one I am reading at the moment is the glam guide by fleur de force, I am addicted to this book it is amazing and I haven't read anything like it. I would really reccommend this!

Sun cream is essential because even though you want a beautiful bronze glow, you don't want to get wrinkles or look like a tomato! 

Similarly, sunglasses are a must, mine are just from a vintage shop for £10. 

Finally, headphones! If you want a nap whilst tanning or just want to relax, I feel that I cannot do that without a bit of music. Some songs I love for summer are:

Katie  Perry- California Girls

B.O.B- airplanes 

LMFAO- sexy and i know it

Carly Rae Jepson- Call me maybe

Flo rider- Whistle

Robin Thicke- Blurred lines

Daft Punk- get lucky

OMI- Cheerleader

MAGIC- rude

Okay, thankyou so much for reading myy post and i hope to see you very soon, gooood bye!
