Woah, well it looks like I've failed at BLOGMAS. Its been way to hard to keep track of time etc, so yeah!



but, Its the best time of the Year! The month of December, and that only means one thing: CHRISTMAS! This is, I have to say my favorite time of the year, because it's a time of love and family time, and its where everyone is happy and filled with joy..
    Its also a time where we receive and send out presents to our loved ones, and its a lovely heartwarming feeling.. I love giving out gifts to people, because it makes me feel happy!                                                                                                        




 I've been waiting all year to finally done my 'Christmas nails', I had Christmas puddings on them last time, but here's this years..

    Just a little reindeer necklace and christmas jumper!

                         And here's just a few more christmassy snaps for you!

 I'd also like to take this time out to say that I know that everyone isn't as fortunate as me, or you guys reading this, and I wish for all those unfortunate people that this new year will get better for you and your life turns around into a patch of happiness!

And to say a HUGE THANKYOU! To you all! the readers who have my first few months of blogging great! I hope you all carry on reading my blogs, and enjoying them! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

Winter Essentials..

Hey everyone, hope your all well!  And do you all like the changes which I had made to my blog page?
  Now, as the weather is changing and the night's are getting darker, It's that time when I love to use lots of 'old favorites' and or essentials as some may say!

So starting off, is a lovely lush product:
Christmas Eve Bubble Bar. I absolutely love this!, It's just such a shame that it only comes out once a year, But the best thing about it, is that it lasts for at least 6 baths! And this was £2.95, so great value really! Oh and it smells like baby powder! Beautiful!

(The lighting has brightened the color on the picture)

Now, everybody needs a scarf! A favorite of mine is from primark, its very warm, and great for the winter days!

  Also, it's very easy to style in both a casual look, and a more formal occasion, so very versatile!

This is a Red and Black tartan patterned scarf, £5.00

Now, everybody needs a woolie jumper!, I have 2 favorites;

This is a Blue, quarter length sleeve jumper from Internationale, £14.99
I am also wearing a white, floral print shirt from Topshop,£15

This a grey knitted jumper, from Primark £15.99

So, that's all guys! I've been waiting to upload this for ages, and I've finally got chance to do it! 

   Hope you all found it somewhat interesting and yeah?

Thanks for reading!

And as its nearly christmas, I was thinking of doing 'Blogmas'? 

  SO PLEASE COMMENT BELOW!

Christmas lights!

Hey everyone, I haven't posted in while! But I'm here, and I'm finally doing a post I been wanting to do for ages!
 Yes, you probably know by the title, It's about a Christmas lights event at Meadowhall, Sheffield.

I went to this last year, where Lawson and The Wanted performed, along with many others. It was a great night and when the whole thing ended, It made you feel really festive and ready for Christmas!

 Anyway, this years. The vamps, Union J and loads more were there! My friend Alice came along because were both HUGE FANS of The Vamps, and obviously we wouldn't miss it for the world!

   Anyway, we got there really early, and ended up being only 3 rows from the front, so we had a great view!

At first there were some little 'unknown' acts on, such as B minor, re connected and a brilliant Micheal Buble tribute. Oh, and a more recently known act. Little Nikki

But then, The vamps came on, and well me and Alice almost died. They were all rocking the 'onesie' look, and to be fair, they all look really cute! Oh and, Connor slipped on the rain drenched floor, hehehe!
  Singing, Wildheart, Can we dance and Cecilia, they absolutely smashed it and after waiting nearly 3 years, I can finally say I've seen them!

Also, Union J were on next, and they were great too! In total they sang 4 songs, Carry you, Where are you now, Beautiful life and Beethoven. I can't explain how serial it felt to be watching them live, it was so strange!

Then there was a 'beautiful' display of fireworks which topped the night off! Feeling, soaked and cold, and Festive, we still had a great time!

The vamps on stage, Meadowhall Lights switch on, Sheffield, 2013!

                                                     
                                                                                                  Lots of loves, hugs and bows!
                                                                                                                                           x

Sorry Guys!

Hey peeps! I hope your all okay!

I haven't posted a SUNDAY: LIFE BLOGGINGS! And i'm going to explain now why!

Basically, I haven't been very well this weekend, and I haven't really been able to do much since early Saturday morning. So I am sorry, but I'ts been to hard to do!

But, I've decided to change the blog routine!
            The BLOGGINGS series has now ended :( *cries*

This is because I have been thinking that there's too many posts going up, and I'm easily running out of Ideas. So from now on, there will be a post every two weeks on a FRIDAY!, this way, I can tell you about the week etc.

So, yeah Sorry guys, but this way it will be better!

                                                                                   Lots of Loves, Hugs and Bows!

Halloween Ideas: Make up

Hey guys! I know it's been a awhile since I last uploaded a Friday post.. But! Finally, I'm putting on up!

Now, as it's near to the end of October, and Halloween is just a week away, well I thought I'd share some ideas on how to have your makeup during this time of the year (for parties & trick or treat)
So, here we go!

This first look, is just a small wing flick on the eye, and gold eyeshadow!

  

Now here's a more darker look, with a wider and longer wing!

And finally, this is the darker eye and a dark plum lipstick to add a spooky effect! 

To add more definition, try adding more mascara and a darker almost black lip tint! 

I hope these 3 looks gave you all some ideas, post comments or tweet me on whether or not you've enjoyed this blog!

Happy Halloween🔪💉

Lots of loves, hugs and bows!

Sunday LIFE BLOGGINGS: Deciding what to do in life.

Hey! How you all doing today? I thought I'd do a more serious post today, as all my others haven't been about anything that serious!
     Anyway, The other day at my school we had a 'Career's Convention' and it was where we looked at alot of colleges, universities and options that are open too us for when we finally leave school..
  Now, because I'm Year 10, it's a really important year, because, there's lots of controlled assessments, and some GCSE'S to complete, so Right now, everyone of us has got to think about what we want to do in the future..
  I've always known what I want to do, but I know for some people it's hard to decide..
 


So, my advise to you is....

Look at all your options carefully.
Know what type of task/objective that to find most interesting, whether it be sport or beauty etc.
Know whether you want to do A levels or study on a course.
Make sure you have a clear idea/pathway that is DEFINITELY right for you!
 And finally, don't let stress beat you!

So it's easy really! You just need to remember that its you life, and its your pathway. Don't let others influence and make you shy away from your choice. You can do whatever you set your mind on!


USE YOUR MIND AND BEAT THE WORLD. That's what I always say!

                                                                                                            Lots of Loves, Hugs and Bows!
                                                                                                                                                  x

Hi everyone! Well it's Sunday again, and that means another LIFE BLOGGINGS post is to be uploaded!

Something strange has happened!

I posted my 'Sunday:LIFE BLOGGINGS' earlier, and it says it was posted on Thursday?.. I don't have any idea why, but it should say Sunday! Sorry to confuse the world, but it's just a strange happening!


                                                     Lots of loves, hugs and Bows!

September favourites!

It's finally Friday again! And another Friday blog comes along!

So you may have noticed that I have edited a previous blog called 'August and September favorites' I've changed it just to August favourites because we're in October now and I thought I'd do September favourites separately! 

Anyway, enough of me going on! 

My first favourite is..

This is a Sally Hansen growth and repair nail top coat. I actually bought it from B&M for about £2.45, which is quite cheap, also, this helps your nails grow so well! I can't even explain! 

Now, another favourite is my parka(coat), we've had a bit of rain these last few days and every time I've gone out, I have put it on! It's so warm and comfy, and a lovely layout of buttons etc!

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          











Oh, and here's another nail varnish, by O.P.I, its the Nicole collection.. I bought this from America earlier this year for about $8, but you can buy it from superdrug for £9? I think anyway! 
Its in the colour 'Haley Good Looking'

Finally, my other favourites:

- Music: Tom Mann ft Jords Broken. Mike Dignam: Keep up Lady
- Food: Cinder Toffee Cadbury Cake Bars
- Others?: Sanctuary Perfume

Sunday LIFE BLOGGINGS!: MUSIC AND INFLUENCES..

Hey everyone! It's that time again where I upload the next  part to 'LIFE BLOGGINGS'! yaya!!
  This week's post is about music and influences etc...

I have a very strange music range, It goes from One direction and Lawson, to Tom Mann and Hobbie Stuart!

Now, I spend lots and lots of time on You Tube watching music artists grow from being not known, to well known! And recently, more and more of the artists I've been watching for ages, have been signed or in a competition etc.

Take The Vamps for instance, I've watched all their video's and been a fan for ages, and now to see them become well known and get a record deal is pretty amazing! Because you feel like you actually know them!

Also, I've watch Hobbie Stuart's videos from when he first started you tube, and now he's making an album, and doing gigs around the country!

As mentioned earlier, I absolutely LOVE Tom Mann's voice ( he was recently on The X Factor), his tone is just heavenly, and yeah! he's great! And I can't beleive he got sent out at the bootcamp stage! *Cries*

Oh, and I also listen to Ebony Day, who is great too! Her covers are better than the original songs!

Although it may seem that beauty is my only main love in life, that's not all..

Music is a huge passion of mine too, I play the piano, and I'm teaching myself how to play the guitar. Oh and I sing from time to time too!

But yeah!


 go and make sure to check all these guys out on you tube! And see y'all next week!


                                                                                                                                                                                                                        Lots of loves, hugs and bows!

*DISCLAIMER- I HAVE JUST PUT MY OPINION IN THIS POST, I'M NOT TRYING TO PROMOTE ETC, I HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THESE ARTISTS, I JUST WROTE ABOUT MUSIC AND WHAT I LISTEN TOO!*

Sunday LIFE BLOGGINGS! :Beauty products and Routines!

Hola, Bonjour, Hey! how you peeps doing? I haven't blogged for a while now, but anyway, I'm back and  that means only one thing:

         Sunday LIFE BLOGGINGS! :BEAUTY PRODUCTS AND ROUTINES!
Even though the title says LIFE BLOGGINGS, well, to be honest, I just wanted to do this, because I couldn't wait another week to upoad a Beauty Blog, and really Beauty/ make up etc is a part of my life, so yeah!

  Plus,I love doing these, because it helps you get to know my taste in make up etc, so its great really!

And I apologise in advance for the VERY BAD placing of the photo's it a nightmare to get them all next to each other, so I just give up!

Right, first, here's my 'face' routine and products;   

I apply concealer, and then blend into the skin, then I add my Foundation, and blend again!, then I add a Stay matte Powder, to set my foundation and give off a more natural look..
I also use bronzer to highlight my face and the 'T-zone'..

Now here's my 'eye' routine and products:

I ALWAYS! add a eyeshadow primer, to keep my powder on my eyelids for a longer time, To get a gradual look, I use the lighter shade in the inner corner of my eye then blend it out with a darker colour.
After, I add my eyeliner using an angled brush, let that dry (so it doesn't smudge) then put on my mascara!
You may have also noticed that I leave my eye brows, and don't add any extra colour too them, this is because I already have quite dark eyebrows, and I don't think I need to add colour!

The Finished look!

Let's go down to the 'lips' routine and products:

I've just put this picture on because I only use a lip balm, unless I'm doing a darker colour, because it makes my lips a lot more moist and healthier!

Sometimes I go for darker shades of Lip colour and Eye shadow, so here's just a few snaps of how that turns out...

*THIS IS NOT ALWAYS MY ROUTINE, JUST DEPENDS WHAT I FANCY DOING*


                                                                                                         Lots of Loves, Hugs and Bows!
                                                                                                                                                      x

Sunday: LIFE BLOGGINGS!

Hey everyone!, I hope you enjoyed reading my Beauty Blog on Friday! It was great writing it!
  But, anyway today's my first Sunday: LIFE BLOGGINGS!, It's a new series of blogs that will be posted fortnightly every Sunday, and today's post is just about me, and the few weeks that have gone by:)

So, firstly this week has been strange to be honest, as I posted before in my 'Misson of Independence', I've started to lose people who were close to me, and lots of things have started to change. When I say I've 'started to lose people who are close to me', I mean that, It's been hard, because I'm not very good at making many friends, as I find its hard to trust people, and I have anxiety problems, And in my life I have a group of friends, who I really confide in, and recently the link within this group has started to break and I've not spoken much with them. This is really upsetting, and if I'm honest, I just wish it was like it was before, I've tried to find a way to make it better but I don't know if it's worked really?! Because I don't have anyone now, so I'm just gunna have to not speak to people, and just done things by myself, keeping everything bottled up inside.

 Anyway, other news is that It's getting near to the time where the leaves fall from the trees,and frost forms on the ground!, And i really love this time of year, (apart from Christmas!), because, it means I can get me gloves and coats out and really get wrapped up, and I adore doing it! - weird I know, but that's just me!-

So, that's the first blog in Sunday: LIFE BLOGGINGS! done, and there's plenty more to come!, hope you all enjoyed reading it, and you can comment for blogs you want to see me do!

                                                                                                                             x
                                                                                                     

August favourites!

I've been loving lots this month, but here's just a few😘

Firstly, My Foundation!

No.7 Beautifully Matte foundation:

In Deeply Ivory, From Boots: £12.95

This has great coverage and a lovely matte feel. Makes my skin feel smooth, and evens out my complexion, and my blemishes seem less swolen and red. It last almost all day, and its easy to distriputed around the face!

So my rating for this product is: 8/10

Next up, to My nail varnish of the week!

Barry M Shine Nail Ennamel:

In Raspberry, From Boots: £2.99

This is a very sexy shade of red. It's kinda like a burgandy, but it really adds definition and the brush covers the nail very quickly. The only problem is that it chips very easily, and you do have to apply at least 2 coats to get a deep red shade!

So my rating for this product is: 6/10

Lets go too, My eyeliner

Avon Gel Eyeliner:

In Deep Black, From Avon: £2.99

This is great!, I'm normally terrible at doing my eyeliner, but ever since I have bought this it's just been so much easier!, I apply this with just a cheap angled brush (which does the job fine) and the definition it gives my eyes is immense! But again, the only problem is, when you come to taking it off, it makes around your eyes look dark:(

But, my rating for this product is: 9/10

Also, a few more favourites of August and September!

Music: Lawson - Juliet, Union J - Beautiful life.

Food: Golden Grahams (cereal), Terry's Chocolate Orange.

Any Other: Nivea Soft Moisturiser

*ALL THESE REVIEWS ARE MY OWN OPPINION, AND IF YOU HAVE DIFFERENT THEN THATS FINE, DON'T LIVE BY SOMEONE ELSES THOUGHT'S*

*I ALSO USED CAM WOW RETRO FOR EFFECTS NOTHING ELSE!*

Lots of loves, hugs and bows!

Quick news flash:)

Woah!, I haven't posted in ages!, sorry about that, been so busy with school work and stuff, it's been hard to find a little spare time..
    Also, i'm planning alot of my furture blogs, so thats going to take some time:)
Anyway, Just a quick news flash for you all!

I'm going to make a routine for my Blog; so EVERY two WEEKS ON A  FRIDAY there will be a BEAUTY POST or LIFE POST!  and   EVERY SUNDAY  there will be a POST ON LIFE OR A FAVOURITES ETC!

Doing it this way, i'll be able to make time out to post, and you'll get continuous Blogging!
   
                                                                                               Lots of love, hugs and bows!
                                                                                                                                   xx

Back to School! AND BEAUTY BLOGS ON THE WAY!

Getting up at 7 in the morning, Having bundles of homework everyday, and being soo tired all day?
    you guessed it, I'm back at school! yaya!

 Its been a long week, and I'm already dreading the end of the school year, because it turns out that i'm doing some of my ACTUAL GCSE'S! Im so scared!
   But, no really, all our classes are loads different and I hardly talk to anyone, so its going to take time to get into.
   So, everyone pretty much settled in to Y10 without any trouble which is a plus point!, Everyone has got to crack on with things such as coursework, controlled assessments and exams, no ones got the chance to mess around or have a laugh, to be honest..
 

Now that our class groups have changed, we don't get to see many old friends, or people who were in our old groups, so that's a bit sad, feels like a chapter in our lives has ended, and another has started.. I wish I could stay 5 forever, life was so much easier back then:)
 
 Anyway, everything is going good, and I just can't wait to see what happens, or how well everyone does when we leave school! That will be strange!
                                                                           Lots of loves,hugs and bows! x





BEAUTY BLOGS ARE ON THE WAY!

I started this blog for beauty and life, like a diary really, But I haven't posted much about beauty, which will soon change....
    In the next few weeks I will find out my camera, and camera lead, and then start my actual beauty blogs!
Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooop!

My mission of Independence!

Its come to the stage where i'm starting look at things alot differently. And, for me this is quite scary!

    But, now that im moving up to my second to last year at school, and i'm learning new things, i'm begining to realise that im going to be leaving things behind.

For a start, it may be harder to keep in touch with my friends, and so, I may either fall out with, or just not see as often.. 

 Also, i've taken a step into the unknown, because i've decided that im going to do an extra course for GCSE, Stats to be exact! For me this was hard, because I don't really understand that much maths, so yeah!

But anyway, i'm really looking forward to the the next few months, and next year! I just hope it all turns out okay, and yeah, my life's looking up! wooooooooopy woooop!
                         
                                                                                    Lots of loves, hugs and bows! x

Ombre, Ombre, Ombre!

So, I recently used the L'oreal preference wild ombre and I have to say its a great product!
  
  I've been wanting to Ombre my hair for at least a year now, but my previous colour has only just faded from my hair, so thats why its taken soooo long!

   I was abit anxious when I started applying the dye, because i've only ever use a dark hair dye, so yeah!

After waiting ages, when I finally washed out the dye, and finshed the styling process the colour was so vibrant, and its created a whole new look for me!
   Because I have dark brown hair, i had to make sure that the Ombre gradually faded lightly, in which it did! And it blends well with the colour of my natural hair!
  
So, if you want a little change to your looks, i would certainly reccomend L'oreal preference wild ombre lightning kit!

                                                                           Lots of loves, hugs and bows! x
