Hello!
I was wondering if you could all give me a hand? I'm really stuck on what blog posts you would like writing - hence the little amount of posts. If you could please leave suggestions for posts in the comments that would be the best, it can be anything.
Thank you all if you help

October Favourites
Today I will be sharing my October Favourites with you! There are so many things I have been loving this month but I have whittled it down to my top few for you.
My makeup favourite has been the Rimmel Wake Me Up Concealer. I have had way too many late nights this month and this has been my morning savior. I don't really know how to describe this product except that it does its job well! This has always been a staple in my makeup bag and I think it always will be due to it's reliability.
Moisturiser of the month goes to Simple Oil Balancing Moisturiser. I have discovered this moisturiser on the quest to reduce my oily skin. After only a couple of days, the oil had noticeably reduced. I have found it doesn't stop all the oiliness of my skin but it didn't cost much and has also reduced the amount of spots I get! Simple is a brand that is also good for people with sensitive skin and make sure their products won't make your skin break out so I recommend this to all of you, even those with sensitive skin.

I have had my Tangle Teezer for a while now but I have loved it more than usual this month as my hair has been especially out of control! I own the Compact Styler in Pink. It is so much easier than a normal hair brush and it doesn't pull at your hair whilst trying to get out those mischievous knots. I bought this from Duty Free when going on holiday last year and I can honestly say it was a life saver after being in the pool all day and having the task of brushing your hair after long pool or beach days. I would recommend this 110%. There are various styles of the Tangle Teezer such as Aqua or even the Original, just choose depending on which suites you!

Next up is Soap and Glory - Rich and Foamous Shower Gel. I absolutely love this product! The mix of Almond, Oats and Brown Sugar lasts on your skin for hours and makes your skin feel soft and smooth. It comes in a massive bottle which I have found lasts ages! I don't know how to describe how much I love this product but I'm so glad I bought it.
My favourite store this month has been Lush. Lush has always been one of my favourite stores, however I hadn't been there in a while until the beginning of the month. Since then I have been in around 10 times this month! Addicted doesn't cover it! The various smells from the entrance of the shop just draw me in and the explosion of colour is just as inviting. The lack of animal testing is another positive for an animal lover like me and the variation of scents and products add to it! You can always be guaranteed a surprise when using one of the products and I find that they all smell delicious and complete a relaxing bath! Am I the only one who feels like that?
My music favourite this month has been Taylor Swift. I have loved going on Spotify and listening to all her old songs: Love Story, You Belong With Me, Mine, White Horse etc. They are a great way to relax and even good songs to listen to while doing homework. In fact I'm listening to them while writing this! I have always loved her older music and she never fails to disappoint.

My Owl Candle from Primark has been a favourite this month. It is a small grey hand painted owl with a sweet vanilla scent. I have had this candle for months now but have never brought myself to start burning it until now! It isn't a seasonal scent which is why I am taking my time to burn it. The scent isn't too strong but isn't that weak that you can't smell it that much; it's the perfect balance. I don't know what I'm going to do when it finishes! I love it too much to throw away! My slight obsession with owls is too strong.

Halloween - Last Minute Costumes
Hi Everyone!
As we all know, one of my favourite times of year is on Friday! I love the Halloween festivities but sometimes planning the perfect costume can be so difficult that you end up with nothing to wear days before (me right now). So for all us last minute people I decided to make a post about last minute costumes. I have linked the items that I have found to their website if there was a specific one.
Devil
A devil costume is easy enough! All you need is a truck load of red!
- Bright Red Lips and Red Eye shadow and Thick Black Liner
- Red Nails
Cat
Cat costumes are more about the accessories and makeup than the actual outfit.
I would recommend:
- Cat Ear Hair Band or Mask
- Long fake nails
- Black cat eye makeup and red lips (Credit to Niomi Smart for Pictures)
- Whiskers! (Credit to Niomi Smart)
Witch
A witch is one of the easiest costumes as you can put on basically any dark colour you own and focus on the makeup again
I would use:
- Spider Hair Pins or a Witch Hat
- Black Lips
- Dots of Eyeliner to make Warts etc.
- Broom Stick
- Back Combed Hair
Pumpkin
This one could be slightly trickier but will be worth it!
- Orange Nails
- Makeup (optional)
Ghost
One of the most blank but effect costumes.
- Ghost Tights (optional)
- Black eye makeup and white base and lips
- White hair bow
- White ribbon tied to arms and wrapped into plaits
I hope you enjoyed these last minute ideas and that they've helped some of you with your costumes. This post was very different to my usual posts. Let me know if you like outfit ideas and would like seasonal ones!
What are you going as this Halloween?
Thank you for reading!
I love you

Liebster Award Nomination!

Hi Everyone!
I was nominated by the lovely Victoria Jane to do the Liebster Award Nomination! I've never really heard of this before but by reading into this a little it seems like a great way for small blogs like mine to widen their audience.
The rules are:
- Answer the questions sent to you
- Nominate 11 bloggers who have under 200 followers on twitter
- Ask them 12 questions of your own
- Notify them that they've been nominated
Here are the questions Victoria asked me!
Who is your favourite blogger and why?
Okay, I'm sorry everyone but I'm going very typical here, I love reading Zoella's and Niomi Smart's blogs because they're always full of inspiration.
What is your favourite make up brand?
I only really buy high street make up due to such a small budget but my favourite high street brand is Maybelline but if I love the look of Urban Decay and Benifit make up.
Are there any bad fashion trends you followed when you were younger?
It wasn't so much of a trend but I went through a stage of wearing headbands daily and I regret it so much now!
Why did you start blogging?
I wanted something to do when I was bored on a weekend and to discover new opportunities! My friend, Sophie started hers a couple of months before mine and she seemed to have so much fun so I thought I'd join!
What is your top make up tip?
To open your eyes more, curl your eyelashes daily!
What is your favourite season? Why?
I have so many reasons as to why I love each season! I think my top 2 are Summer and Autumn because Summer is so warm and you can do so many activities but Autumn is cosy and a beautiful time of year.
What is your favourite quote? Why?
'Rise above the storm and you will find the sunshine' - Mario Fernandez. I love this quote because it proves that there is always a way out and that you should never give up.
Favourite high street store?
Either H&M or New Look.
Who is your biggest style influence?
My older cousin, Jess is a massive style influence to me but if it was someone famous then probably Perrie Edwards, especially when she was younger or Bethany Mota.
What beauty product can you not live without?
My concealer, brow pencil and mascara.

Summer Outfit - OOTD
Recently, I decided I would go into my garden and create an 'OOTD' post of one of my favourite summer outfits. It was a nice day where I live in the UK so I took this as the perfect opportunity to make this post.
It's super comfy and keeps you feeling cool in the summer heat which is why I love it so much! I hope you enjoy.
I love my kimono so much but it took me forever to find the right one for me. This particular one has a flowers and butterfly print with blue fringing at the bottom. It looks gorgeous and goes well with lots of my clothing.
Primark - £13
Underneath the kimono I am wearing a plain white vest top and a pair of dark denim high waisted shorts. I believe the vest top is from.
Peacocks - around £3
The shorts were from New Look's summer collection last year - around £15.
You can get similar shorts this year and there are a few pairs in Primark which are very similar.
Shoes are from Primark - £8.
They are a cushioned shoe with a lace pattern covering it and have a small bow on the front. I find this shoes comfortable after you've worn them a few times, however the first couple of times wearing them was quite uncomfortable but they're okay now.
My sunglasses are also from Primark's collection this year - £2.
They are a 5 sided shape and are fairly big (which I love). On the arms they have a dark brown leopard print and I love them so so so much!
Finally for my jewelry I have a pair of flower earrings from 'Claires' that I got quite a few years ago so I'm not sure about the price. They originally were black and white checked but the pattern has rubbed off over time.
My Celtic patterned ring is from a shop where I live called 'Pretty Twisted' but they have a website which sells most things they have in store. I'll put the link to the ring here and the link to the main website here as they have a lot of cute, amazing products to check out!
Ring - £3
On my left wrist I have a small silver bracelet with a small clear pink star which I got for Christmas one year but you cant't see on these pictures and a '5 Seconds of Summer' wrist band that I got at a concert - £3.
I will put the link here for the wrist band.
Unfortunately I couldn't find any links for the products but I hope the pictures helped!
Thank you for reading!
