Summer's Coming to an End..

-

"It turned colder; that's where it ends so I told her we'd still be friends, Then we made our true love vow, wonder what she's doin' now. Summer dreams ripped at the seams but, oh, those summer nights.."

#GREASE

❤ ♡

It's that time of year when everyone's gone back to school and university students are preparing to head back.. AUTUMN's round the corner and the leaves are changing into those crispy deep reds and browns.. 

It's also time to reflect on the summer we've had, the memories we've made, the pictures we took, the awkward tan lines and new friends we've made.. It's that time to reflect on all the fun before we all go back to studying and being serious.. 

It's been a hell of a long summer, stressful, tiring but so much fun! I've made some good friends, spent whole days under the sun, shopped till I dropped (literally), successfully painted my whole room & reorganized my closet to the extent where I threw a lot away! Regardless of my extreme lazy days (just like today) I've managed to have a real good few months!

My second year university preparations start now.. I've got a hell of a lot cleaning, packing, reorganizing and buying to be doing before I officially head of to Cambridge for another year full of amazingness! There's two good things of the end of summer.. I move back & see my ever so mad but amazing friends and PURPLE LIPSTICK (MM YEAAAH)! 

This all seems so damn serious but it's what we're all realistically thinking about and I hope y'all have had an amazing summer! Have fun in school/college/university or this year of work.. make it eventful.. memorable and picture filled happiness!

LOVE YOU GUYS <3

Procrastinating Beauty Blogger Tag ;?

GUUUYS.. 

This tag is basically designed for me.. 

1. Name a beauty regimen that you rarely do?
Wearing blusher? I just think it emphasizes the fact that I already have naturally flushed cheeks and it makes me look super red.. 

2. Is washing your brushes something you do regularily?
ERRRRRRM nope.. I have a variety of brushes so I don't use them all the time.. I do it every three weeks or so.. 

3. How long will you last with chipped nail polish?
I dont paint my nails cause I suck so never?

4. How long will you put off buying/replacing a beauty product, even if you need it?
I replace it as soon as its finished if its something I use on a daily basis.. having said that I usually try things out when I finish something.. 

5. What is your worst beauty habit?
Not cleansing my face before bed.. I'm the worst person at skincare!

6. Name something non-beauty related that you put off doing for a long time?
Sorting my clothes out after I've washed them.. They'll just sit there until i wear them all and they end up back in my laundry basket.. #fail

7. When going out somewhere do you leave getting ready to the last minute?
HELL NO! I'm ready makeup wise but outfits are a craze! Usually i'll just be ready and get side tracked by music or Youtube :o #oops

8. Can you commit to spending bans?
never.. I need to learn to though or i'll be broke! 

9. How organised are your makeup and nailpolish collections?
I wouldn't call them collections.. but they are pretty organised.. 


Hope you enjoyed baskiug in my lazyness.. ;D #peace!

I have a slight collection of eyeshadows in every form and lipsticks too.. but everything else I buy when I need it!

X Factor Experience!

Heey Guys!

All you british and american people know what X FACTOR is right? Well for those who don't its a show to find the next big music artist/s in the industry! This year all the contestants will be judged by.. 

SIMON COWELL
CHERYL COLE
MEL B
LOUIS WALSH 

The panel this year is amazing & i'm SO glad Simon's back :D 
I managed to get tickets for the auditions and bootcamp through APPLAUSE STORE! All you gotta do is signup and they send you emails regarding shows in your area :D 

I went to the auditions on Friday the 1st with my little sister, Ziya and another of my bestfriends :D It was at the SSE Arena in Wembley..  and there was a bit of a wait but the experience was insane :D We had so much fun and we were so shattered afterwards.. Instead of going on about it.. I'ma let you guys watch the vlog Ziya made.. 


I then went to bootcamp with my little sister on Saturday the 9th.. It was beyond intense :o I vlogged a little bit but most of it will either be really noisy or random footage i got of both days.,. 


Hope you liked seeing these ever so random things.. Let me know if you guys would prefer me putting up supporting videos as well as posts and pictures :D 

Till next time m'loves <3x

Moments..

Hey Guuuys!

So I'm just writing on a whim here and I think it'll help me to write it all out and maybe you guys will get to read this too.. 

I'm one of those cliche girls who love romantic things; rain kisses, long walks and picnics in the park with old fashioned 21 questions to get to know each other a little better. I will never understand how a relationship can be purely internet based and I'm not one for posting about it on every social media website possible. This is beyond cliche of those Tumblr girly kinda posts but I'd love to receive a letter like in the notebook than a facebook relationship request.. 

I just wanna say I want you all to appreciate the simpler stuff in life.. relationships are all about portraying it for the world but its never intimate that way.. you lose the inside jokes and the random giggles if all you do is post everything you guys do toegther on media sites for the world to see.. we need to take a step back and make the moments count.. 

Write that special person a note.. tell them how amazing they are.. Mind you, Im not talking about just romantic relationsships.. friendships can get ruined too when everyone knows everything and nothing is a secret.. bestfriends exist so that you can tell your secrets to them.. I'm feeling awfully Tumblr like whilst I write this cause the sun's setting into a pretty purple and orange sky and ah it;s all picture worthy but my camera's dead and Iphone's just wont do it justice.. 

I also wanna let you know.. I appreciate everyone who follows & reads my blog.. if you get this far in this ramble.. comment below and let me know where you're from.. and answer my question below :D

This is basically a really random post.. I want to know how you guys are doing and how you all are spending your holidays? Anyone of to any place interesting?

Birthday Celebrations!

HEY GUUUUYS! 

Okay so I know this is mega late because hey.. I turned 20 last month but I've only just got round to sorting everything out and I thought I'd show you what I got up too :D

21st June
I went shopping with the older sister to go find something to wear for my birthday dinner.. we shopped for hours and I ended up wearing what I was going to initially.. Obviously I had three birthday outfits.. Four if you count my lunch date.. 

22nd June
The little sister and I went to go watch 22 Jump Street at Westfield and I spent a hella lot of money :o #oops! We chilled but OMG it was a funny movie.. and of course I partly wanted to watch it because of the beautiful man we all know as Channing Tatum <3 We were there pretty late and we were supposed to go earlier but she took forever! We got home at 8ish and it took us all 2 hours to decide where to go to dinner and STILL managed to end up at Nando's! It's like the one restaurant we go to for everything and tbh it's not really my fave but eeeh! I had fun spending time with the family.. especially since I go to uni in Cambridge and there's not a lot of time when we're all home or in one place! We went gallivanting for McDonald's Ice-cream after and I can honestly say.. My parents are in love with Mc'Flurry's! 

Birthday Outfit #1: Primark Tee & Trousers ¦ New Look Sandals ¦ ,Micheal Kors Bag ¦ River Island Sunnies ¦
Birthday Outfit #2: Zara Jacket ¦ Topshop Black Tee ¦ Matalan Black Jeans ¦ EBAY Blue Iphone Cover
23rd June
I had been planning to go out to dinner with my friends the day after.. and I actually invited 15+ people.. but nothing ever goes to plan when it comes to me! I went into town a few hours before to find some nail glue so I could put on some falsies.. but that never happened because when I got to Superdrug's they never had any! It drives me crazy that the nearest Boots is like 25 minutes on the bus! I walked home but by then It had gotten mega hot and I had people ringing me up saying they couldn't make it.. I think only two of them who couldn't had like actual reasons whilst the other simply couldn't be bothered! I was proper stressing out because I didn;t know who was coming and who wasn't.. Regardless I got ready and my best friend picked me up and then one of my girls as well! There was 7 of us in the end and we had dinner at Tinseltown.. which if y'all don't know is an American style diner.. It's beaut <3 I'm probably the slowest eater out of everyone.. I was still munching just before the cake came.. which was funny cause she went to the other table and then came back to ours.. I was sitting there embarrassed :o  After the cake was cut.. It was an adorable Minnie mouse one.. SHOUT OUT TO THE BEST FRIENDS EVER! We headed over to a Bar/Shisha Garden.. We were supposed to do shisha but everyone got drinks and we chilled.. The lighting sucked in there and even if everything never went as smooth as I wanted it to.. I'm glad I had my best-friends with me through it because hey.. what's a birthday without a little drama and drunkenness?

This was freaking yum!!

Birthday Outfit #3: H&M Maxi Dress ¦ Zara Necklace ¦

One of my bestfriends and fellow blogger Ziya <3

25th June
I went out on a little lunch date with one of my friends from high school.. It's insane how far we've come from there and It was a bunch of randomness.. It's all a little bit of madness.. We ended up at Nando's with a hella lot of food [AGAIN]! & some McDonald's Ice-cream for afters.. It was a much needed catch-up & I can honestly say that it was a good few days :D I also had on my Primark nude nails.. They looked super lush and they lasted me about a week! 


Hope you guys liked seeing a view of the crazyness I got uptoo :D 
Till next time m'lovess x

Random Questions Tag

Hey Guys! 

So I know I've been MIA for a long time but I thought i'd come back with a little tag I found a couple weeks back.. Still can't believe I turn 20 in a couple of days.. 15 to be exact :o 

What’s a nickname only your family calls you? I don’t have a nickname, but my dad always calls me by my first and middle name cause there’s a song with that as a title.

What’s a weird habit of yours? My window is always open, regardless of whether it’s snowing outside!

Do you have any weird phobias? London Underground Elevators!

What’s a song you secretly love to blast and belt out when you’re alone? Cooler than me - Mike Posner! It’s just too upbeat not to sing!

What’s one of your biggest pet peeves? When people say guess what? And then don’t tell you what it is!

What’s one of your nervous habits? I hum or tap my foot...

What side of the bed do you sleep on? Right side, at least that’s always the side I wake up on.

First stuffed animal? I actually can’t answer this because I’ve had so many but the one that sticks in to my head is the giant pooh bear we bought is Disneyland when I was four & I still have it!

What’s the drink you always order at Starbucks? Chocolate Frappachino!

What’s the beauty rule you preach but never practice? I don’t preach anything; I’m too lazy for that! But I’m most definitely guilty of ruining my own skin by ending up sleeping in my makeup because I can’t be bothered to take it off!

Which way do you face in the shower? Towards the opposite wall.

Do you have any weird body skills? Not that I know of!

Favourite comfort food? Practically everything but most definitely cake! Give me cake and I shall love you 5ever!

What’s a phrase or exclamation you always say? There are tons! “That’s Disgusting!” “OMG!” “Coolbeans Broski!”


Time to sleep! What are you actually wearing? Depends to be honest! If it’s hot and/or I’ve just had a shower; a long t-shirt! But if I’m cold and/or I’ve been lying around; a pair of comfy trousers and a random tee!

Hope you liked that.. Till next time m'beauties <3x
