Anyway here are some of my favourites from the past #100happydays...

You can check out my full #100happydays here on my instagram, and check out the #100happydays website here were you can sign up to do it yourself!

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

p.s bluebells are my favourite things to see come out at this time of the year, so I thought it would be appropriate ;) 

What apps do I have on my tablet?

Hello guys!
Todays post is a highly anticipated what apps are on my tablet. I have only done the apps that I use the most. Now I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2, which is linked up to my s3. #samsungposse

facebook/twitter/instagram 
so like every other young person out there I gotta keep up with my social networking sites, so check mine out in the links above ;) its really important for me to keep in contact with people out there.

Pintrest 
recently I have re-found an obsession with pintrest... honestly its getting really bad, but i use it for ideas for things in my room (if you want me to do a post on this let me know) and meals to cook. If you dont have it I would highly recommend it.

Flixster
Now there has been a new thing called 'ultraviolet' on new dvds which means that you get a digital copy to put onto this account, on mine I have Pitch Perfect, One Direction - This is Us and Identity Thief. This is really good for me especially being on the go alot of the time.

Spotify 
everybody knows what spotify is and everybody loves this... should I say much more?

Nook 
I used to have a nook but then I realised that they brought out a mobile version a few months ago, so I decided to move it all on over onto my tablet which just makes things a lot easier have less devices to be responsible for. My current read is, Lauren Graham: Someday Someday Maybe, which is amazing I would highly recommend it!

SpringPad
Finally, my newest app. This is an online notebook in which you can store anything from recipes to travel plans. I have been using this recently to help with the planning of our family holiday to New York.


Thats all for today, until next time

How I stay organised!

So for today's post it will be about how I stay organised!
Now organisation is a key part to my lifestyle so I break it down into these small steps.

Diary 
Keeping a diary is a very important part of my life, it goes everywhere with me. I put all my classes at college in there and all my out of college activities which helps me when it comes to planning my personal life out. I make sure that all my activities are colour coordinated, college is pink, church is blue and social is yellow. This makes it super easy for me to know what I have going on through the week (and I can budget out my social activities hehehe).

Whiteboard 
Now I use this most for college work, so throughout my BTEC we have different units with many assignments, so each term I divise a chart so when I finish an assignment I can just tick it off. This can also make it easier to see what I still have left to finish before my deadline.

Post-it Notes 
I use post-it notes all the time, whether it be from making notes in my textbooks, or reminders around my room for me to do things. I have them in all different shapes, colours and designs.

thats all for today, so until next time

March Favourites... in the middle of april

Urm lets just start with this.. (sorry I am slightly obsessed)

I have posted in a while as I have been off on my jollies to the seaside! :) Which i have many pictures of here on my instagram.. Thankful the sunshine came out yayy, which rarely happens in England.

So I thought that it was about time that I did my favourite products and other random things for the month.

Beauty Products
Soap and Glory 'Scrub your nose in it' facial scrub.
This has been one of my favourites for a long time, I believe this is my third bottle of this scrub so I know it works by now. I wont go into too much detail as I actually did a blogpost on it a few weeks ago. So check it out ;)

EOS lemon drop lip balm. 
Now I know I am a bit behind the trend with this but I am in love with my new eos lip balm. It really protects my lips and leaves an even coverage on my lips.

Smashbox photo op eye shadow trio, in naked, crisp and doe. 
I love smashbox make up, it kinda the underdog of make up brands but a personal favourite of mine to pick up when I am in the states. For my everyday look, I use naked as a base on my eyelid and then crisp in my crease. This leaves a solid natural look, that is perfect for everyday use.

TV Show. 
Greys Anatomy. 
Now medical drama's have never really been my thing until now.. it grabs you in so many ways and you wanna watch episode after episode. And who doesn't wanna watch McDreamy and McSteamy over and over again?! I wont spoil it for you so check it out! ;)

Youtubers/Bloggers
Sprinkle of Glitter  -This follows Louise and her glitterly fabulous life of beauty and fashion with her husband and her gorgeous daughter Darcy. She's just super fun and makes you smile everytime you watch her video. her fabulous blog here

Zoella  - Zoe is just like Louise with a life full of beauty and fashion and recently living happily away from home showing the younger generation how growing up can be a good thing, and going through the rough times can make you stronger. check out the blog here


Thats it for today, until next time

Packing do's and dont's

So recently I have been travelling for some short trips to see people and have become very able to pack light. Then I thought about the dos and donts for packing.

DO - Make a list.
Its important to make a list before you pack so you only take the necessary stuff with you (then you can use it on the way home to make sure you haven't forgotten anything) I find this really useful because I am quite good at overpacking. 

DONT -  take you whole make up bag.
Now I understand it can be quite easy just to throw your whole make up bag into your suitcase and be done with it. But do you actually use it all?! Probably not... What I like to do is just take the essentials  and pop them in a small bag inside my wash bag. Saves so much space!

 

DO - Take a carrier bag for dirty washing.
There is nothing more difficult than having lots of dirty washing and nowhere to put it. (And you certainly don't want to mix it with your clean clothes) so I like to pop in a carrier or bin bag, depending on how long I am away for and then when you get home you can just take it out straight away and get it washed :)

DONT - just throw the clothes into the suitcase.
Not all hotels have an iron or ironing service available so its important to make sure that your clothes don't get creased or wrinkled. Once less thing to worry about

DO - print everything off.
Its helpful when you get to your destination to make sure that you have every detail avaiable. So this includes hotel details, booked activities etc. Most people like to just have the emails on their phone or tablet but it can be a good idea to have a back up on paper just incase.

DONT - leave all your electronics lose. Lastly dont leave all your cables lose because they just get attached to all your clothes. You can buy specialist bags to put them in but I like to put them in a clean make up bag which does the same but for less money!

I hope you guys found this useful,

Until next time
