Fashion | Stripes

So recently I have really been into stripes on anything, if an item of clothing has stripes I will instantly adore it! I think that stripes instantly add retro to your wardrobe. I think pin stripes are particularly cute because they are just really vintage-y and look really pretty. I also think that stripes can really suit anyone if you can find the right way to wear them. 


Okay I think that is it really!

Lets all go on holiday!!:)

Hey guyzz:D We haven't posted since like Easter so sorry!! But here we go, here's a post.
So last night I got back from Spain (first time abroad, eep!!). I went on an exchange with school for a week. I'm just gonna say, it was the best experience of my life. I'm not joking or exaggerating, it was fab. If any of you have the opportunity to do an exchange, do it. You make loads of new friends, foreign and from your country, and you make a ton of memories. It is such a great thing to do, and if you stay in touch with your exchange you have a friend for life, and maybe you can go back and stay with them again in the summer or something (I really want to go and stay with Irea again, I miss her and her family loads).
So I just thought I'd make a post with some advice about going on holiday. I'll do another one specifically about exchanges later.

1) If you are travelling by plane, weigh your suitcase before you leave the house/hotel/wherever. This didn't happen to me, but its a horrible feeling wondering if your suitcase is too heavy or not. Its even worse if it is too heavy, then you have to take some stuff out and put it in your hand luggage or a friends suitcase, or if you can't then you have to pay. Its not good, and its easier just to weigh it beforehand and then you can take out all 7 Harry Potter books you were planning on bringing if your suitcase is too heavy.
2) Be sparing with the clothes you bring. Do you really need 7 pairs of jeans, 6 skirts, and 4 pairs of shorts when you're only going for a week? Of course, bring more clothes than you need in case of weather changes, going out in the evenings, or just being plain clumsy and dropping food down yourself every time you eat like me. But you don't need your whole wardrobe.
3) Be realistic with the clothes you bring. I went to Spain, and I expected screaming hot weather and not a cloud in the sky. That was not the case. For the last 3 days, it rained and rained. I didn't have much else, so I was stood there in shorts in the pouring rain. It wasn't that bad because it wasn't cold, just wet. Bring some emergency clothes in case the weather suddenly decides it hates you.
4) Have your passport or boarding card or ticket or whatever you need ready. If you are at the front of a queue to have your passport checked, which you have been in for 15 minutes, and your passport is at the bottom of your bag, then people want to punch you. It is annoying, and when you're tired and you just want to go home its one of the worst things for someone to do. You don't have to have it in your hand, just an easily accessible pocket/compartment of your bag. 

That's all I can think of right now, if I think of anything else I will put it in a new post. I hope you found these little tips useful:)

So bye beautifuls, if any of you are doing an exchange or going on holiday soon have a wonderful amazing time and I love youu!!:)

Completed Look | Happy Easter!

Hi! I know we haven't posted in a looong time but since we were near easter I thought I might post a few outfit ideas and an eye make up look for easter!

I will start with the eye make up. By the way my left eye may look a little irritated but that is only because I scratched myself in the eye by accident before taking photos, so sorry about that!!










So basically all I did here was line my eyes with a brown pencil as I do normally and then applied a bright colour to me lower lash line. You can use any colour but I have bluey-green eyes and violet is supposed to really bring out my eyes. Then I finished with mascara! Really simple but a great effect when your finished!



Okay so I chose 3 different outfits....here they are:


This outfit is for those of you who want to be dressy, yet still comfy. I am just wearing my white dress from ark and over the top I have a flowy goddess top. 

This isn't really an outfit as such, more just a dress but it is my favourite dress right now , it is an orange tie-dye dress from ark with roll up sleeves and it comes just above the knee and its just so pretty I had to show you guys!  


The photo here is not as good but it was taken on my phone but this outfit is for the more chilly days for example if you are outside in an easter hunt (in Britain where it is like -2 degrees!) Here I am wearing my Ralph Lauren jumper tucked into my floral skater skirt from ark and underneath I just added some tights.


Hair tutorials for what I am wearing here might not be up before easter but they are coming soon!!

Stuff!!<3

Hey guyzzzz!! I already told you it was my birthday on Friday:'D I just wanted to show you some more of new favourite things I got!!<3
1) Popcorn Lip Scrub from Lush. Lush is the best shop in the world. Their lip scrubs are perfection in a little pot. You scrub them onto your lips to make them smooth, then lick off the excess. Or eat it straight out the tub;D It tastes great and is safe to eat because Lush hate to use any kind of chemicals in their products. They do Popcorn, Bubblegum and Mint flavour.


2) Caramel Cream lip butter from Nivea. These lip butters are amazing. They make your lips smell great and they have a lot of moisturising properties to make your lips less dry and cracked (which my lips are almost 24/7) I apply this straight after my lip scrub. They go together really well (come on guys, basic maths here -  caramel + popcorn = :D) and they both help to make your lips absolutely perfect. The other flavours that I know of are Vanilla and Raspberry, although there are almost definitely more.

3) M&M scented candles from the 99p store. Do I have to explain these? I have Red Hot Apple Cinnamon and Crisp Vanilla, but there are loads of other flavours that I can't remember.


4) Lollipops from Sugacane. For those of you that don't know, Sugacane is an amazing sweet shop. They also sell American sweets, which us Brits adore. The one in the picture is Raspberry Ripple, but I also received about 10 others. There are about 50 flavours: Birthday Cake, Rum&Raisin, Tutti Frutti, Red Bull, Dr Pepper, Cookies&Cream. Like I said, there are loads of flavours and I just can't remember any more. 


Wow, that turned out to be a longer post than I thought. I highly recommend all these products. Tell me if you have tried any, or if there is another topic you want us to cover. I will probably be doing a nail tutorial soon too:)
Byeeeee!!!<3

New shoes!!<3

Hiyaaa!!<3 So yesterday was my birthday, I am now 14 years old!! Yay!! I got a TV for my room, & some money but I am sure you all know what a TV & money looks like, so I am just gonna show you the new shoes I bought:D!!

They are pretend Doc Martens from Primark. They cost £18 pounds each (which is why I got both;D). The pair on the right are patent leather, and the pair on the left are fabric floral. I love them both so much!!:) I have seen lots of people wearing patterned DMs, but I wasn't sure where to get them. I didn't want to spend a lot of money on real DMs when my feet are still growing so, for me, these are a great cheap alternative!!<3

Like I said, I got mine from Primark, but I also know you can get them from H&M (mainly because Eva got hers from there;D). Although they are boots, they look great with dresses or skirts as well as jeans or leggings.

Bye, I love you all!!<3

Hair care | Body Shop




Recently I have been loving these hair care products from the Body Shop, they are seriously amazing!




















First off this little duo is the most amazing shampoo and conditioner I have ever used! Even though it can be used on any hair type I would definitely recommend this for blonde girls because it contains real banana puree it brightens your hair and really make it shine. Favourite hair product ever!!

Next is the Cottonseed Curl Booster. Now I have naturally straight/wavy hair but I love to curl my hair and this curl boost is a kind of heat protector and curl enhancer. Its main purpose is to de-frizz hair and make it bouncy and voluminous but because my hair isn't really very frizzy I just use it to enhance my curls, I might even post some pictures showing the difference between when I curl my hair with this product and without just so I can show the seriously amazing difference! 



I know its a short post but I just wanted to show the amazingness of The Body Shop hair products that I use! 


P.S I know I used amazing a lot didn't I? ;)
