Pinterest

Hello everyone,

Recently I realised that my blog has evolved into more than just a fashion blog, it now has many different aspects to it so I thought that they all deserved their own space. I took me a while to think of how to do it quickly and easily but, so everyone could see and access it and then it came to me...use pinterest!! 

So I went through all of my posts and pinned them all onto different boards on pinterest. I came up with seven different boards and one with all of my posts on.
(click here to view my boards or click here to follow me)

I hope this helps you to find my older blogposts easily,

Beauty Favourites #1

Hey everybody,

I have a few products that I have just been loving lately so I thought that I would share them with you. I've just been obsessed with soft skin lately so they are all down the skincare route.

Nivea Sensitive 3-in-1 Micellar Cleansing Water

The first product is a new edition to my skin care routine. It is very similar to the Bioderma Oil I talked about in my skincare routine but I prefer this one a lot more; it removes makeup really quickly and easily and you don't have to use a lot. I keep it on my bedside table along with some cotton wool so then just before I get into bed I put a little bit on cotton wool, wipe it all over my face and then I'm done and ready to go to sleep! keeping makeup wipes or cleansing water can really help you not to forget to take your makeup off before you go to sleep. you don't have to rinse it off with water either, you just let it  soak into your skin. My favourite thing about it though is that it's made for sensitive skin and one of the effects of sensitive skin is redness and since I've been using this over the past week I'm already seeing a massive visible difference in the appearance of my skin.

Nivea Rich and Nourishing Body Moisturiser

 The next product is also from Nivea and it's a body moisturiser. It is super hydrating and helps to dull the appearance of dry skin. I love using this on my legs especially after shaving as it replenishes all the moisture.

Superdrug Vitamin E Moisture Mask

The final product I was a bit sceptical about at first but I absolutely love it. It's  a Superdrug own moisturising face mask and believe me it works miracles! I left it on for about 15 minutes and when I took it off my skin felt so soft and it didn't go straight back to what it was before it stayed soft for about 2-3 days! They do a few other types of face masks and I'm definitely going to be trying those out next.

I highly recommend all of these products to you, you should definitely go and try them out,

A Year (and 2 days!) Old

A Year and 2 days
367 days
8808 hours
528480 minutes
31708800 seconds 
1,999 page views from people all around the world
and 43 (44 now) blog posts later and here we are; we've made it through an amazingly fun year together

This blog is now 1 year and 2 days old!! I know it's not exactly 1 year but I didn't even realise that it has been a year. I've just been enjoying writing content for you all and the time that has past hasn't really registered with me. Last year on Sunday the 6th of April I sat in my living room with my family we were watching a program on the telly (I wasn't really paying attention to the TV so I really have no clue what was on!) and I sat there on the green sofa and typed my first ever post. I was actually quite nervous I've no idea why but I just was. I remember that day like it was yesterday so when I was sat here looking at old posts I realised that I have been writing blog posts for a year (and a bit!) and that is a very long time.
Whether you have read my blog from day one or this is the first post you've read I hope you all continue to read my blog and all that I write for another year.

My Workout Week | Spring into Summer

Hiya Everyone,
So as promised here is my workout week; this is my holiday routine because obviously when im at school I don't have as much free time. now I'm quite layed back when it comes to fitness so I suppose this isn't really that much of a routine and I often switch put things and move things about but I try and do around this much every week during the holidays.

Monday
Walk- I try and go on a little walk at some point in the day even if it's just round the block a few times or going shopping! now you're probably thinking well that's not a workout but you don't have to go on a 10 mile run and not have fun you could just go into town and do some shopping for example yesterday I went into town with two of my friends, Alice and Pippa and we went and saw a movie and then had a wander around town and this might surprise you but I actually walked 5km!! #shoppingreallyismycardio
Tuesday
Rest Day- it's really important to give yourself a rest day just to relax 
Wednesday
Leg Workout- I have a little YouTube playlist I made of a load of leg workout videos. I really want slimmer thighs in particular so I try and do at least one of these videos on a Wednesday or if I have time I'll do one in the morning and one in the afternoon/evening
Thursday
Dance Workout- this is basically anything! I follow a video on YouTube or do a couple of just dance songs to get my heart beating
Friday
Rest Day- Friday is another chill out day for me it's another day of chilling out and having fun
Saturday
Gym- on Saturdays I go to the gym in the evening for around an hour to and hour and a half depending on what time I got there
Sunday
Gym- I don't go every Sunday but sometimes I do do go to the gym for a bit on a Sunday morning (let me know if you'd like me to do a gym routine post)

I hope that some of you found this helpful and remember one is better than none.

Review-Nikon 1 J2

Hi,
Okay so as promised here is my camera review I thought that I should wait a little while before forming my opinion on it and as I'm currently on my way back from Northumberland where I've taken loads of photos what better time to do it. (I did actually write this in the car on Thursday I just forgot to publish it!! Sorry x)

Item: Nikon 1 J2
Price: £150
Where the items from: Amazon (I got it as a one off offer)
Quality: the camera is super good quality and takes amazing photographs. it's compact so it doesn't take up much space and is easy to just throw (not literally!)in your handbag before heading out.
Tech Talk: now I'm no camera expert and I'm not going to pretend to be! I am just going to tell you what I know (very little) and if you'd like to know more just click here.
it has many different modes and you can take videos on it as well. Mine came with the 1Nikkor 10-30mm lense and the zoom is great. it focus' automatically and the charge lasts a long time.
Stars: 5 Stars
Pictures: 

Overall thoughts: This is a really good quality camera and definitely worth the money.
