Updates - Blogging, Holiday and School

Hola! Firstly Im sorry I havent been able to post for a long time I've been packing for holiday and just havent been able to get on blogger at all. We have a cute apartment out in Spain or holiday villa whatever you want to call it really, and my grandparents also live over here so im on their computer right now with a fan blowing directly on me as its over 40 degrees and Im melting.

I'm really excited to be doing some special posts, as im out in a very nice country im hopefully going to be doing some OOTD's if i can I have taken one or two on my phone but I have my camera and hopefully will be able to. I'd love to do some so I can show everyone my style and mix up my posts a bit. Due to being on holiday i wont be able to access a computer everyday and i still want to enjoy my holiday but dont want to forget my blog ofcourse! I am thinking of taking as many OOTD's as I can and then when I get home or every now and then I will post them with all the information!

Sorry this is a short post but I dont really know what to write about and i havent done much today but if you want to see what im doing head over to my instagram and follow me! (link here) and it just took me 10 minutes to find the bracket on this keyboard so my post is porbably riddled with mistakes. I wont necessarily be able to post everyday on Instagram I would but I dont have wifi that much so when i do expect a whole bunch of pictures.

Thank you to anyone who reads my blog because it does mean a lot even if its just one person! I dont know when exactly I will be posting again but I get back home on September 3rd the day before i go back to school into Year 10. School will also be hectic as its my first GCSE year coming up but I am definetly not going to stop blogging because I love writing and taking pictures and generally everything to do with it. However if I have lots of coursework or homework I will just write another quick update telling you so you know whats going on.

Thank you for reading!

Get to Know Me : Beauty Blogger Tag!

Hello! Today I wanted to have a go at doing a tag as they seem like a lot of fun and I actually got tagged by my amazing friend Kendal (her blog here!) so that's what this post is going to be about today. Also I'm sorry if this ends up being really long as I do type a lot without realising, but ill try keep it short and sweet! So here we go:

1) Is your hair naturally curly or straight?

Straight, but It is wavy sometimes.

2) What is your natural hair colour?

My natural hair colour is brown now, but I was born with jet black hair and had loads of it and then when I was younger and growing up I had blonde.

3) Do you dye it yourself or go to a salon?

I haven't ever dyed my hair but I'd really like it dip dyed!



4) Do you wear the same style everyday or do you change it?

Well it depends really I just tend to wear the same type of clothes but I wouldn't say I'm the same style everyday sometimes I change it up and do different things with my hair and stuff!

5) Do you do your own mani/pedi or do you go to a salon?

Most the time I have always been doing my own for my whole life but soon I'm going to get a professional gel manicure soon though which I'm excited about but that'll be the first time I've ever had one. 

6) How often do you change your nail polish?

Well I haven't wore nail polish in a while because I always smudge it an get annoyed or my right hand is a fail.







7) Do you polish your toes in the winter or just the summer?

I haven't done then in so long, I mean like ages but I suppose if I want to I just will no matter when!

8) How long does it take for you to put on makeup? 

I don't wear makeup so no time but when I do I normally put on a BB cream or moisturiser, maybe powder it and then curl the lashes and pop on some baby lips so no time at all!

9) What do you do first face or eyes?

I don't wear that much makeup so is say face with my cream or moisturiser.

10) Do you collect makeup or do you just buy what you need when you need it?

Like I said I don't own that much make up purely because i don't wear it so I suppose if I see something I like then ill just go and get some of it, or if its a new thing that a lot of people have been saying good things about that I'm interested in then i will.



11) How often do you wear false eyelashes?

Never worn them!

12) Do you do a full face of makeup everyday?

Nope you can guess, but if I'm going out then ill curl the lashes and pop on some nice baby lips.

13) Do you wear makeup when your home alone or with family?

Nope not unless we're going out in which ill do what I've mentioned in the other questions.

14) Will you leave the house without makeup?

Yes I don't really care what people think of me! But then again I don't really wear it so...

15) How many high-end products do you have?

I don't really have any I prefer getting more high-end clothes as such.

16) Do you plan your OOTD every night  or decide when your getting dressed?

I don't plan it every night I just decide the day but if it's a special occasion hen I might plan it.

17) How often so you change your handbag?

Occasionally it depends, every now and then ill buy a decent bag which you can use for different occasions or ill buy like a backpack and a clutch or something, but not that regularly. And I'd have to say my dream bag would be a Louis Vuitton Speedy 25 or 30.



18) What time do you wake up and go to sleep? 

On a school day I get up between 6:45 to 7:00 and go to bed at like 10:00 but end up staying up on my phone,oops! And in the holidays I just let my body wake up when it wants and go to sleep quite late..

19) How often or when do you work out?

I don't really work out paha! But I walk my dog regularly and sometimes do exercise. But I wouldn't say I'm the sportiest person in the world.

20) Left handed or right handed?

Right.

21) How tall are you?

Oh dear I have no idea I think I'm like 145cm or something, I'm so small it think I'm getting a growth spurt a bit.

22) Do you speak any foreign languages?

Well I speak a bit a Spanish as I learn it and have family over there so I suppose Spanish. A bit of German and a bit of Japanese.

23) How many pets do you have?

Well I was never allowed pets but I had goldfish, a dwarf hamster then somehow a got a pony as I used to horse ride a lot, and I still enjoy it but I'm having a break and my pony was getting older. So currently a puppy!



24) How often are you on blogger?

Not everyday I try to go on every other day if I can whether it's drafting, reading or writing!

25) Do you read comments posted on blogs?

Well in mine yes, but I don't get that many. I do read them on others if I'm commenting or if it's a discussion.

26) Do you keep a list of other products to try as you see other posts?

Depends really, if it's something I want to try or looks good and people like it then I will.

27) How did you come up with your blog name?

I guess I was just brainstorming, I kind of want another one but right now I have this name.

28) What kind of camera do you use for your photographs?

I used to use my iPhone but now I use my Nikon Coolpix L810 in the colour Mink.



29) How often do you clean your house?

Well not very often but my bedroom is tiny so I can't afford to be really messy which is good I suppose.

30) What's your favourite colour?

I like lots as there all pretty but my favourite has to be a pastel blue or turquoise, but I also like coral colours. I can't pick! 

31) Do you swear?

Not in general the only time I do is if Im doing it because someone else has or telling someone something or generally if its in like a song or something, but most the time If I do ill only say the words that aren't that offensive.

32)What are you doing with the rest of your day?

Not sure yet, probably just playing around with this blog post and seeing what happens with the rest of my day.

Thank you for reading!

TOMS

Hey everyone. Today I finally got my Toms which I order a few days ago and I thought why not do a blog post on them. Also I got my new camera out and decided to make some use of it, so all the photos in this post will be taken by that. For anyone who is interested my camera is the Nikon Coolpix L810 in the colour Mink for a picture click here! Lastly before I start if anyone wants a post about my camera leave me a comment below. Right lets start the post.

So earlier today a package arrived and me being obsessed with them I opened it rather quickly. I didn't expect my Toms to arrive so quickly as I only ordered them Saturday and it was just standard delivery. Anyway the ones I ordered were the Natural Canvas Toms (here). They were a reasonable price and there are tons more colours and designs but there in bigger sizes, sadness. But they still have really cute patterns and different styles, also when you buy a pair they donate a pair to kids in poorer countries which I think is such a good idea to do.


I bought these because a wanted some ages ago but I have them for my holidays and they are so comfy and so easy to slip on and off but stay on your feet and aren't too tight. The shoes are just really nice and the material and sole of the shoes are really good quality. They are true to size and true to colour which Is good as its so annoying when you order something and it comes completely different.

When you buy Toms you get a little sticker with them that has ideas on how to tell more people about them and how they donate pairs of shoes. It also comes with a little canvas bag with the flag on it like on the back of the shoe which you an see in the picture above! They wont make your feet too warm which is good and they can easily go in the wash without getting ruined.

 There is my post about Toms, I hope you all like it if you've read it all and I hope the photo's are good quality as i'm quite please on how they've turned out! More posts coming soon.

Thank you for reading!

Perfect Perspex

Hello!

Today I thought I'd do a post on something I love at the minute and think I will love forever and that is anything Perspex. If some people aren't aware on what it is, you will by the end! So with that lets just jump right into it.

I first came across Perspex items when I was on YouTube a while ago watching the Burberry Prorsum Womenswear S/S13 Show, and that was the moment I fell in love with it, but couldn't find it on the high street for cheaper. However its finally arrived in lots of different stores in lots of bright colours so hopefully I will be purchasing one I've found very soon. So basically I am going to write a little paragraph about a designer Perspex item and a high street Perspex items. Hopefully I wont ramble on so it isn't too long!

Burberry Blaze Handbag

 

Ever since I saw these handbags I fell in love with them like I said a minute ago because their just so bright and a really nice sized bag that also come in metallic and ombré. Some people with many Perspex things obviously think its strange being able to see things through it but if you are you can just add a nude bag inside and there! But personally I really like the design and its just such a unique idea that you don't see everyday and they just make me so happy!

High Street Perspex

 

 

So here are some items for pretty cheap that can be found online or on the high street. My favourite type are box clutches which I'd use for a night out or just instead of taking a bigger bag, however I haven't included in the photo, I have no idea why but you can easily search them up! I also really the satchel ideas and as you can see in the bottom photos they put little pouches in so it is still Perspex but you cant see your things.

 

There you go. A pretty short post on why I love Perspex (which I've probably mentioned 20 times in this post). I just love how its such a different idea to a normal bag and is used in not only bags but in shoes, jewellery, sunglasses, furniture and many more different things. I hope you enjoyed reading this post if you did.

 

Thank you!
