October/November Favourites.

 Clothes:  

Cath Kidston blue spotty tote bag 

This bag is a little treasure. It is a daily use in my life, whether I am off to college or going shopping. I can fit everything perfectly into this bag and have room for extra! (more often those sneaky purchases) I personally bought mine second hand because they can be pretty pricy ranging from £40+. 

Beauty: 
imPress press on manicure 
These are amazing. I have normally very weak nails meaning that nail polish never really stays on for long, neither do stick on falsies. These however have been on for a few days now and are working like a miracle and still look brand new. You can buy these in any good drugstore for around £7-£8.

Music:

Taylor Swift - 1989 DELUXE 

This is unreal. People always ask which of the songs on this album is my favourite because well everybody has heard it. For me though this is a hard choice... I LOVE THEM ALL. For those of you who have not already got this album, which worries me if you haven't! You can buy it anywhere amazon, itunes, google play or anywhere else for around £16.99

TV Show: 

Keeping Up with the Kardashians

Now we just got the E! network in our house meaning that I can get a daily dose of those Kardashians who everybody secretly loves. Do I need to go into much detail here? They are just all adorable. 

Random: 

Christmas Candles
Well it is the most wonderful time of the year after all... Whether they smell of cookies or the crisp winter air. It simply is just magical.

Until Next Time.

July Favourites!

It's that time of the month again, it's my monthly favourites :)

Beauty: Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water
This is a beautiful water that wipes all my make up off with such ease, and leaves my skin feeling beautiful afterwards. I never used to use these sorts of products to wash off my make up (I know naughty!) but now I have started I believe that I will never look back.

Clothing: Gandys Flip Flops
Normally I cannot stand to wear flip-flops as they feel like you are just walking on the ground however these are amazing. They have a thick cushion which supports my feet wonderfully. Also they give money to charity from them which is always a bonus.

Music: MKTO - Classic
I know this song is old but who cares! this has been on repeat for now what feels like forever. It is such a feel good summer song that just makes you wanna dance. Click on the link and you can thank me later...

Random: Bath and Body Works, Watermelon Lemonade Candle
I got this beautiful candle from a lovely friend of mine for my birthday and it is one of the best candles I have ever used. I have always wanted to try one of the bath and body works candle because everybody in what feels like the world has raved about it and I am afraid I am next. So go get yourself one.

Hope y'all are having the best day.

Until next time

June Favourites.

Hello!

It's that time in the month again when I tell you all about my favourite things this month, so let's get straight into it.... 

Make up: Wake Me Up Concealer

This actually was just a random pick up whilst I was at the airport but ohhh my was it a worthy buy. It basically is magical cover up that covers my dark circles (and those sneaky spots!) I have actually just purchase the foundation in this which I am excited to try. 

Music: Demi Lovato 

Old. New. It's all just the perfect summer sound especially for me whilst I have been finishing off all of my coursework. 

Clothing: Cardigans!
As the summer months are here, the hoodies and thick jackets have been put away. My favourite one at the moment is a white baggy one which I got from the Bethany Mota collection at Aeropostale whilst I was in New York. It is very easy just to throw at most outfits whilst walking out of the door.

Random: Cool lime referesher sachets.
This is another favourite thing that I picked up whilst I was in New York. This is my favourite drink to have during the summer time and now I get to make it in the comfort of my own home :O America really does have the best things.

I don't have any more favourites for this month but the SUMMER HOLIDAYS ARE HERE!! I am super excited for more time to chill and to try and pass my driving test! hahaha

Until next time

May Favourites...

Hello Guys!!

So it's that time again... here is my May favourites :)

Beauty: Smashbox Full Exposure Mascara
Now I never really wear mascara as I have longer eyelashes, but when I do this is my go to product. It gives the look of false lashes without the hassle of actually having to wear false lashes. The problem is that even though it is a high end brand it does dry up quickly so I would definitely recommend buying the smaller size.

Skincare: Nivea Soft Refreshing Soft Moisturising Cream 
This is a miracle worker. I struggle with really dry skin and this does the trick, it's for the face, body and hands so it works all over. I like to keep a tub size at home and then the tube size within my handbag for being on the go.

Random: Busted. 
So ever since I went to McBusted, I kind of have fallen back in love with Busted again. I feel such like a 10 year old. hahahaaaa. I also have watched Thunderbirds because of this about 20 times. so let's quickly move on..

Clothing: Caterpillar Suede Boots  
These boots have really gotten me through the winter and spring months, they are super comfortable and will pretty much every outfit that I own (which is a huge help!) they are more on the pricey side but I believe that they really are a worthy investment.

App: QuizUp
As I recently have been travelling, I have had so much free time so this app has been used a lot. It basically has quizes on everything that you could think of. My top ones to play are obviously Gilmore Girls and Greys Anatomy but I do like to play the business ones as well to keep on top of my knowledge ;)

Well until next time,

April Favourites!

hello guys!

sooooo it's that time again.... it's my monthly favourites!!

Clothing: Forever21 Black Leggings. (click here)
Firstly these leggings are £3! thats crazy good, they are also super wearable and have lasted me longer than leggings that I have paid much more money for.

Make up: W7 translucent powder. (click here)
This is a really affordable powder of the high street which has a really nice flawless look. It's mostly only available in Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland I believe but you can also find it on amazon, if you check out the link above.

Skincare: Cowshed knackered cow relaxing body lotion (click here)
Now this more on the pricey side but so worth it! The lotion has lavender and stuff like that which basically relaxes you right down. So this is something that I would normally use right before I go to bed, so that I can chill out.

Random: Green Swirly Tumbler. (click here)
So... I know i am a bit behind the trend with these but I absolutely love mine! I use it mainly for water, whether I am at home doing coursework or on the go. It really encourages me when it comes to drinking more water... but I am also use it for my pepsi max #ihaveaproblem

Food: TWIZZLERS! (click here)

Now lets talk about these. I don't think I can..
These are the best sweets in the WORLD. I have been enjoying them lots in my preparation for my trip to New York at the end of the month (were I will stock up)

TV Show: The Hills
When this was on the TV I loved it and still to this day I am in love with it. #teamLC
This month I have watching it like non-stop reminding of those good old days in the hollywood hills. If you have never seen this show, which what have you been doing with you life if you haven't?  you need to go check it!

Well this is it for today's post, until next time
