Fight Club 2: The Comic.

Monday 29 June 2015
For those that know me personally, I am obsessed with the author Chuck Palahniuk (I've met him!). I've read his books for years and Fight Cub is pretty much my all time favourite film. So when I heard that Fight Club 2 had been announced and that it was coming in comic form, it hit all my nerdy spots.

8 Photos of happiness.

Thursday 25 June 2015
Hello world! I got tagged in another tag post by Lauren over on Sweetened Sour. Please head over and check out her 8 photos! This is such a cute idea and a great way to see a little into other bloggers lives!

It's also an opportunity to show off my Polaroid snaps , as I actually shoot mostly analogue photography outside of this blog. So hopefully you'll see something cool and different.

So lets get on with it!
=)


Rules and explanation of this tag


Thank your nominator/s and link them in your post.

Without further a do, here are the 8 photos that make me happy!



This is my little brother and I on holiday with my family. I think this was in Wales, we always used to go stay in a caravan with my grandparents. I can't be much older than 4ish here. Totally cute right?


My First Spa Experience.

Tuesday 23 June 2015
I've been wanting to go for a spa day for absolutely ages, I can't believe I've got to the ripe old age of 25 before doing so. I found a great deal on Groupon for Nick's mum and I to have a day for cheap as chips and we got 3 treatments included.  

I really wanted to get loads of pictures to bulk out this post with but sadly I couldn't do that because spas are full of water and other people...which don't go well with iPhones and personal space! So this is going to quite a text heavy post, I hope you don't mind.

5 Product Face.

Friday 19 June 2015
I have been seeing a few people recently doing 5 product faces and I thought I'd give it a bash. This was surprisingly easy for me to do as I don't usually wear tonnes of different products on my face. I have my favourites and I tend to stick to them although I am learning to branch out a bit more now days.

I'm not including tools here because lets be honest it wouldn't be much fun! But if people would like to see what brushes etc I use please let me know and I'll put together a post for that.

So lets dive in!

Cool gift ideas for fathers day.

Tuesday 16 June 2015
As it's fathers day this Sunday, I thought I'd put together a little post about gift ideas to buy for those special dads out there! 

Hope you enjoy!

Alcohol.

Now this probably isn't the most exciting of ideas however there are so many varieties of alcohol readily available now, that you can find some cool new bits and bobs. If your dad does like a little tipple there are loads of interesting beers, ciders and spirits to choose from in the alcohol section of your local supermarket, pick a few at random and put together a little hamper, he might stumble across something new that he really likes! I've done this little trick for multiple people and it always goes down well. You could also throw some snacks into the mix, making it the perfect hamper for him to enjoy chilling on the sofa one afternoon.

So. Much. Beer.

Current favourite lipstick

Sunday 14 June 2015
Recently when doing my make up I've been noticing that something has been missing from the overall look. I do occasionally wear lipstick but I generally like really low maintenance make up so touching up lippy all day long really doesn't appeal to me.

However, the more I watch Essie Button on YouTube, the more it's inspiring me to try out some new brighter lipsticks. She wears very bright, colourful lipsticks and she looks gorgeous, it really is flattering with her skin tone and hair colour and as my life goal is to be her, I thought I'd give some new lipsticks a go. I think since dyeing my hair brown I can pull off a more colourful lip without washing me out completely, as I have a very pale skin.

Apologies about the bullet, it's a mess and I have no idea why.

Festival Fashion

Thursday 11 June 2015
I'm not actually heading to any festivals this year but I thought I'd put together some outfits I would wear if I were.

Head over to my Polyvore here to see where you can buy all these items by clicking the style you like.

Let me know if you like them!
:)
Just a casual crop top with a lacy detail on the shorts. Plus a tassel bag, love a good tassel bag!

Tuesday Nail Update.

Tuesday 9 June 2015

So this is a very quick post.
Just thought I'd show you guys the most recent colour I've been wearing on my nails.

This is another Rita Ora colour from Rimmel, I liked the Bestival Blue colour so much I went in to Boots to see if they did a teal blue colour in the same range, which they did! It's called Port-a-loo-blue, which isn't the most appealing of names lets be honest, but the colour does remind me exactly of that, ha! 




Fashion: How I style distressed jeans and Birkenstocks.

Sunday 7 June 2015
So in my Payday Wants I mentioned buying a pair of distressed jeans and Birkenstocks. I thought after actually purchasing them I would show you guys what they looks like on!

The jeans I got from Forever21 are SO comfy, I forgot how comfy a slightly baggier jean are, screw super skinny jeans. I think I might purchase some different pairs of these but impressed with the sizing and quality of Forever 21. 

I headed to Office to buy some Birkenstocks and came across the Office version of them, I had no idea such a thing existed. I tried on a size 4, fell in love and saved £30 as they were only £25. Bargain! I have to admit they have rubbed the top of my big toe but I did walk around A LOT in them the first day I wore them however they are still very comfy and I can see myself wearing them loads over the summer.

Hope you enjoy my goofy photos
:)

THE QUESTIONS I WAS GIVEN:

What is your favourite film? 

Fight Club has been my favourite film for years. It's one of those films you enjoy over and over again. If you haven't seen it I highly recommend! 

What is your favourite place in the world that you have visited? 

Ohhh this is a hard one. I think it's between Cyprus and Berlin. Cyprus for the obvious reason I got engaged there and the stunning views (see post here). But I also love Berlin for it's likeness to America, the huge boulevards, the subway and the grandness of the buildings were beautiful and I really want to take my fiance Nick there.  

If you could only eat one cuisine for the rest of your life, what would you pick?

I think I'd pick Asian food, I love Chinese and Thai style food, plenty of veg, meat and flavour! Mmmmm fooood.


What is your dream job? 

I don't actually know the answer to this. I'd like to have a creative job or something involving people but sadly no mega interesting answer here, sorry!


What make up product could you not live without? 

Probably mascara, I have such blonde eyelashes without mascara I have no eye definition. I was going to say foundation but I feel if my skin was nicer I wouldn't care so much about foundation!


What was your favourite book as a child? 

Probably the Harry Potter series, they were the first book series I picked up by myself and finished. I remember my brother and I heading down to the local supermarket on each book release and rushing home to read it. 


What is your favourite animal? 

I couldn't possibly pick one, I love all animals!

If you could go back in time to live in a certain era, which one would you pick? 

I loved the fashion of the 50's/60's, all the clothes are super cute and flattering. I think the clothes would really suit me and I could have gorgeous bouncy curly hair....*daydream*

What's your favourite scent? 

Vanilla. Vanilla always smells amazing! 

What is your dream car? 

Nissan Figaro. It's a nice vintage look and the pastel colours are the best!



Do you have any pets? If so, what are there names?

No I don't but Nick and I are really considering getting little doggies :)

~


MY QUESTIONS ARE:

What is your favourite TV show?

If you could be best friends with a famous, who would it be?

Bold lip or bold eyes?

Who is your favourite Youtuber?
