Hi guys, sorry i missed a couple of weeks of posts, I've been working really hard to keep all my school work up to date and now I've settles down i'll be back to posting twice a week! Today is sunday, and i know a lot of you will probably be having a lazy sunday, but what could you do on your lazy sunday? Heres some ideas:
1- Have yummy breakfast in bed, like waffles or bacon sandwiches.. yum.
2- Watch a movie, get some popcorn and blankets and snuggle down!
3- Make a yummy drink, like a frothy hot chocolate!
4- Watch youtube videos! Zoella's vlogs are hilarious, and I'm obsessed with ViviannaDoesMakeup!
5- Read fashion magazines such as Elle and Vogue.
6- Cut out your favourite pictures from those magazines and make a mood board.
7- Style loads of cute outfits and take loads of pictures.
8- Have a hot bubble bath and moisturise with lovely body lotion after!
9- Get up and go for a walk, its relaxing.
10- Get your friends round and do makeovers on each other!
Hope you had a good sunday!

Soap & Glory Solar Powder Bronzer Review!
Hi everyone,
So the other day my um went out and got me the Soap & Glory Solar Powder bronzer, and lets just say, IM OBSESSED!!
I wear this every day now and its just such a perfect, good quality product, I'm hooked. The pallet has two halves, one side is a dark bronze and one a lighter more natural one. I wear them swirled together on a big angled contour brush, and it gives me a lovely natural warmth and contour. I dust it under my cheekbones, across the edges of my forehead and along my jaw line, and i find this gives me just enough definition for day to day use. I would highly recommend this product as for a high street bronzer i was very very impressed, and the compact has a mirror, bonus!
Tune in on Sunday for a Catwalk report from LFW, all my favourite shows for ss15!

New Blog Post Times + Life Update!
Hi guys, sorry for missing my last post! But the thing is life is unbelievably busy for me right now. Every day except 2 I'm doing sport and I'm knackered to be honest with you. I start my dance east training properly this week and I'm nervous but so excited! I also start cambridgeshire netball next week and i don't know how I'm going to cope with the physical strain! I've realised that to keep doing what i love and get my school work done i just can't keep posting three times a week. So from as of now i will be posting twice a week. Once on wednesday and once on sunday. This will give you a more even week split and hopefully you'll get more detailed posts as well! I love my blog and it makes me so happy to see the views going up so I'm gonna keep trying really hard for you guys, I'm always doing my research! If your a regular to my blog and read every week i would just like to say THANK YOU SO MUCH, i don't now whether anyone actually does but if you do i love u so much okay thanks.
Remember, never give up because if you wanna get to the top theres gonna be hard work to get there.

Back To School Essentials/What's In My School Bag!
Hi guys, so this week i went back to school, and i just thought id share with you some of my back to school essentials!
First of all at the start of each year i like to buy myself a bag. This year i bought myself a blue/green leather rucksack from accessorise and i love it. It's completely different to anything i would usually have and i love the colour and practicality. Rucksacks are just the easiest things to throw on because they fit a load in and are so easy to carry when they get really heavy. Then I will get myself a knew pencil case, this year however my mum gave me a pale blue and white spotty one that she wasn't using, and i really like it! Then of course i have to fill my pencil case. I like to get a new lot of stuff at the start of each year so that it lasts me all year and i won't run out of everything. I buy lots of black or blue pens, pencils, coloured pens, a rubber, ruler, pencil sharpener and a glue stick. Then i have to have a calculator and geometry set. Our school provide us with a planner on the first day back to organise all our homework and clubs etc, this is essential for me. Obviously i the have all my books for the day but i don't get them until i go back as we get knew books. I always like to carry some hair ties for PE, a perfume and/or body spray, a lip balm and some tissues. These always come in handy. I also have to have an inhaler as i have athsma. I also always have arcading book with me for english. At the moment i am reading Divergent by Veronica Roth. Its A M A Z I N G. I'm really trying to get back into reading. As I'm doing art for one of my GCSE's i also have a pack of colouring pencils. Lastly i like to carry a hand sanitizer, as school can be a dirty place!
Hope you all have a good year of school, it's not as bad as you think! Stay positive and succeed!!

Summer Favourites 2014!
Hi everyone, so summer has now officially ended, as i am now back at school. Here comes autumn! But before we push on into a/w i think its time to reminisce over this fab time of year, by sharing with you all the things i have been loving this summer! I'll go through it all in different sections to make it easier for you to see!
Skincare.
First up has to be the product that just wakes up my skin every morning, and this is the Clean & Clear Morning Energy skin brightening daily facial scrub. This has really helped my skin and has a lovely fresh lemony scent.
The other thing i was loving when i went to Kos was the Garnier Ambre Solaire clear protect + spf 30 suncream. This comes out as a transparent spray and is so so easy to apply. It's also really water resistant so you can go in the water and still be protected by a high spf.
When it comes to moisturising my body i have also fallen in love with the White Musk Body Lotion from the Body Shop, it sinks in really well and has a lovely fragrance to it. I put it on at night and wake up with really soft skin.
Haircare.
Just one favourite this month and its the Matt & Messy shine free salt spray by L'oreal Paris. This is lovely to add texture to your hair after showering to give a tousled effect.
Nails.
About 6 weeks ago i had some gel nails done at a near by salon, and they were gorgeous!! They lasted for about 4 weeks until i had to remove them as my nails had grown so much it looked ridiculous! They didn't chip at all and the girl that did them helped me choose some gorgeous colours textures and patterns
However when i did take them off my nails were not at strong as they had been as the acetone i used to remove them damaged my nails considerably. Therefore i have been using the Models Own 4 way nail stick all the time to try and keep my nails looking respectable. The four sides are file,buff, smooth and shine and they really do work!
Makeup.
I haven't bought that much new makeup this summer but one thing i did buy was the natural collection Lash care Mascara in clear. I use this to help keep my eyelashes healthy when I'm not wearing mascara some days, and as a brow gel to keep my brows in place. Lovely formula, applicator and product! And also very cheap!!
The other thing i have been loving this summer is the blusher in Antique by Sleek. I love Sleek makeup and although i bought this quite a long time ago i have absolutely fallen back in love with it. I wear it dusted lightly along my cheekbone as the beautiful shimmer and colour of it really highlight and define. I will definitely be purchasing some different shades as i love it and wear it practically every day!
Another thing, that isn't really makeup, or skin care, is the cocoa butter vaseline. I use this every day. I apply it to my eyelids and lashes over night to nourish and restore my lashes and i also use it on my lips as the most amazing, nourishing, softening lip balm ever. It feels amazing on the lips and i wake up with silky smooth lips. I just bought a new one as i just ran put of my tub.
Fashion.
When the weathers warm and i want to put some shorts on my go-to pair are my hollister distressed denim short shorts. Now these are very short, but the fit is amazing and it is just the perfect colour with the perfect amount of distressing. I'm obsessed.
I've also been wearing my vintage flannel i got in margate all the time too, staple piece.
I also got the most gorgeous deep blue/green leather rucksack for school from Accesorize, its gorgeousss!
People.
This summer when i'm having a lazy day or I'm a bit bored in the evening, i will always go to youtube. And this summer there have been 4 you tubers that I've been obsessed with! These are Zoe Sugg (Zoella) Lily Pebbles (lilypebbles) Anna (viviannadoesmakeup) and Aspyn Ovard (aspynovard). These you tubers have bought me valuable life lessons, introduced me to amazing new products, showed me amazing places and made me giggle. I'm obsessed with watching their blogs and i love every single one of their videos. Seriously, go check the out!
Music.
Now i don't particularly like all the chart music all the time, i just find it gets a bit boring to be listening to the same pop songs as everyone else. Don't get me wrong i still download them and listen to them sometimes, but i prefer indie/rock/alternative music. Here are the bands/people I've been loving; Imagine Dragons, Arctic Monkeys, The Script, Coldplay, Foster The people, Onerepublic, La Roux, The Fray, Passion Pit, Linkin Park and Kasabian to name a few… The list could go on for hours!!
Activity.
I'm completely obsessed with fashion, and Ive read every single fashion magazine you can think of! I also love to read fashion books and spend my evening studying them and drawn. yep. Thats me.
I hope you enjoyed this favourites post!
