Holiday

First of all, I'm REALLY sorry I haven't posted in so long. I've been on holiday and didn't have any internet connection and I've been super busy ever since I got back. SORRY! xxx


Yep so I stayed in Croyde in Devon. It's a nice place there. It looks like this:
Yup so it's kinda far away oops, sorry
So I enjoyed staying there. We normally stay in Combe Martin but me and my sister body board A LOT and Croyde is a great beach for that. Only problem was that there were lots of jellyfish but you hardly noticed them. We also visited Woolacombe which is one of my favorite places in Devon so if you ever go, you should visit there.
Me and my family sat on the beach to watch the sunset together. It was the first sunset I've ever really seen properly because where I live all the houses block it :(
More new things; I had my first cream tea. (So British!) It was so yummy! I still can't believe I've going to Devon practically every year and have never had a cream tea. Furthermore I can't believe I've lived in England my whole life and never had one- especially for a tea addict like me!!
After Devon we went to Wales for a couple of days because mum wanted to go walking there. So we went to the Wetland Center which basically a big nature reserve to feed the ducks and go canoeing.

So that's my holiday, have any of you guys been away anywhere?

July Favourites - Part 2

Lip balm: Soft lips. This was recommended to me by VeriHolden. I love it! It's spf 20 so it's great for summer, smells gorgeous and it's under £2!!
Hair product: Mark Hill Holiday Hair Dry Shampoo. This was one of the products I got at the Boots fair and I've been trying out while I've been away. It's great for making your hair a bit less icky from the sand and sea.
Facial product: Simple Oil Balancing Moisturiser. I have oily but sensitive skin so this is great for me. I also recently discovered that if you apply it on top of sun screen and leave it for a little while it makes your face look less freaking shiny!
Body Product: Coconut body oil. This is another product I got from the Boots fair. It's great and smells delicious.
Nail Varnish: The accessorize one (reeeeally I forgot the name) Did a post on this a couple of weeks back but I still love it.
Make up: Clear mascara. I know a lot of people don't understand  the point in this but I love it. I am lucky enough to have quite curly eyelashes so this highlights them and looks natural. I unfortunately lost my favourite one a while back but it smelt like cucumber.
Item of clothing: Black and white skirt. I don't usually wear skirts, just shorts, jeans and dresses so I was on a missions to find a pretty one.

Well that's just about all for July,

July favourites- part 1

*I want to apologise now for the lack of photos and posting, I'm away from home at the moment and there is a bad internet connection where I'm staying and most of the stuff mentioned is at home. *

So I have a lot of favourites so I'll split it into two posts, I'll do my general favourites today and my beauty related favourites tomorrow. Okay? :)

Book: Divergent by Veronica Roth. Wow I love this book, read it and its sequel twice this month! Planning on doing a proper review of it at some point unless you couldn't care less. I'm hoping the next book will be out soon because I can't wait!
Film: Yes man/Ice Age 4. Sad I know but I generally love anything with Jim Carrey in so for me this film was great, it was hilarious! Also Ice Age 4 is brand new and I loved it, it was so funny and I just love all the Ice Age films.
Song: Good Time by Owl City. As you can probably tell, I LOVE Owl City! I think he's amazing and one of my main sources of inspiration. He always encourages me to keep going. Probably do a post on him at some point maybe too... So I love his new song ft Carly Rae Jepsen. His new album is out Late August which has been moved from September which means now I can get it for my birthday yay!
(Sorry for the lame photo but I had to put something and that was the best I could do. SORRY!)

Programme: How to be a gentleman. This is brand new, you can watch it at 9:30 on Monday's  on Comedy Central. So far it's really good.
Computer game:  Super Mario 64 DS. Nerdy I know but I've rediscovered this game recently and have been playing it constantly.
Android App: Colornote. Basically it's sticky notes for your phone but organised in one place. You can chose different colours, text or check-lists that you can cross off and even set text reminders. It's the most useful app I have.
Snack/Food:(Really sorry-can't remember the name) animal shaped chips! My friend was having a party and I saw these in Tesco and convinced her to buy them instead of curly-fries because they were so cute!
Drink: Monster. I don't normally like energy drinks but this one was yummy :P Not very effective though.
Youtube channel: Joey Graceffa I watch A LOT of Youtube so I figured I would include this. Joey is amazing and another inspiration of mine. He's hilarious and posts daily vlogs.

Right so that's all for now, check out part 2 probably tomorrow, thanks!

I'm a stereotypical Britt?!

Everyday for the past 3 and 1/2 weeks it has been cold and rained. Naturally everyone complained, but now these last couple of days it's been really sunny and warm. I'm mean really warm for Britain. So warm I got hot and sweaty going for a 10 minute walk in a T-shirt at 9am. So now I've been complaining about the the heat but how it will be rainy again when I go on holiday. Very stereotypical right?
Also I do drink tea... a lot. It like my favorite tea and my Dad and I have actually made plans to have cream tea and scones on holiday...;D Having said that, I don't speak really posh; I actually live in quite a chavy estate (BTW people from America: do you guys know what a chav is?? Because I have a friend there who's never heard of them!)

So I'm a stereotypical Britt but without the posh accent haha :)

Summer nails

Okay so I know it's really basic but I like it. The colours are really summery and vibrant but I like that it's just the tips and not the whole nails.

I remembered straight after I did them that I was going to do them rainbow colours because I like rainbows (given the name! :P) but I like the random but bright colours. I don't like keeping the same nail art for more than a week so I'll be needing another summer nail idea so please let me know yours!

So yeah, just a really quick post,
Talk soon,

Photo a day challenge

Hi all :)


So, (I always start with 'so') since I've not been able to upload my photos, I thought that now that I can I might as well do the 'photo a day challenge' basically you just have to take a photo everyday for a week (which is super easy for me ;) (also, I go on holiday soon so I'll probably do another one when I get back)).


Monday: Stopping in Starbucks after a LOT of walking around York

Tuesday: My results from Quasar-I won the first game!

Wednesday: Ice Age 4-whoo!

Thursday: New nail design for picnic

Friday: Party food (there was so much and this was before all of the hot food!)

Saturday: Not been able to get this out of my head since I discovered it, it's exactly how I imagined it (from Mockingjay)

Sunday: It was recommended that I try this so I did and I love it! Will definitely be taking it on holiday with me!

So that's my week in a nutshell, let me know if you want the nail tutorial or anything, it's pretty easy though...
