New Years Resolutions.....

Yerrpp I said it new years resolutions, and it's one of those things everyone says their gonna do but don't follow through... which one of the reasons I have never done them before! But there a few realistic goals I want to do, achieve and constantly do. So I'm gonna do this post for my self so I have it written down somewhere and proof that I said I would do it and can't go back on my word ;)

First of all is my blog, now I've never actually set myself a schedule on when I'm going to post. My motto was ill post when I wanna! And this wasn't the most practical so I'm gonna make a schedule!  What this is gonna be is 3 posts a week, Makeup Monday which is makeup post obviously! Whatever Wednesdays which is a post on whatever I want could be a DIY, skin care, routines, home stuff or could be an extra fashion or makeup post! Then Fashion Friday which is posts on oodts, fashion forecasts, how to styles and wishlists! So this is what I have wanted to do for a long time and I'm finally doing it and I think it would make me feel a lot better about my posts and blog in total!

Next I want to do well in all my uni interviews and get excepted then in September actually go to uni! Pretty simple but hard to do! And so exciting too!

Now this one is like a cliché new years resolution but it's to get fit and healthy but I can't even walk up the stairs without getting out of breathe! So I'm going to the gym, start running (again) and gonna stop eating... dare I say it... but stop eating shitty food! Trust me guys I will do it ;)

This one if my mum reads it will be shocked about but I want to try and keep my room as tidy as possible and not let it look like a wreck, and I really like my room tidy but sometimes I just get too lazy which needs to stop! Even tho..... It most probably.... won't!

I not a person who only focus' on how many followers I have and only strive to get the max amount, I'm not! But I do like to set my self milestones as it gives me somthing to post for and It also tells me people like my posts and my blog and they want to see more! So this goal of 300 is only for GFC which is on the right side bar if you want to go follow me know if you haven't already! ^_^

So I didn't pick too many as I most probably wont do them I will forget, but there is gonna end up being one really big main goal that I've forgotten but I really can't remember right now! But let me know what your resolutions are this year, and if any of them are the same as mine!

What I Got For Christmas 2014!

Lets start with saying I hope you guys all had a very merry Christmas and will have a happy new year when it comes around ^_^ So I've never really done one of these posts before as I've never really felt like it but I know that they are popular posts and videos! 

So I know some of you guys may see this as bragging and showing off, and this is not what I'm trying to do I just know people like to read this and I do myself. As I find them a great way to get ideas for presents for your birthday if it's coming up or a family or friends birthday too! So there's ma disclaimer for ya ;) Even though if my family read this they'll be like what are you doing??? but to the family who reads this, its excepted in the beauty blogger community to share things like this!

So I am really great full for all the presents I received this year and blessed to have a lovely family. However this year I found that I was more excited to see my family rather than getting excited about the presents,  which I think Christmas should be about, cause it's the best time of the year to get all your family together, and everyone is happy! And I think I  was more excited to see my little cousin open her presents, who's 4, because she got loads of sylvanian  families which is what I used to play with as a kid!

I dunno if Mum, Dad and luke are gonna kill me for this picture but we always take a picture before we eat our dinner and I really love these guys and this picture!

So let's get on to the prezzies! First present I got was on the 19th of December because my friend had a Christmas party and we did secret santa and my friend Kira (who also has a blog here) kirabassett and she got me a selection box of chocolates which I've already eaten! And also a set of 3 Calvin Klein lipsticks which are is such pretty shades which are great for this time of year!

Even tho me and my Bro are 17 and 19 we still get a stocking ;) never to old aye! So these present are from santa and I got 2 tubes of sweets cause you can't get enough of them at Christmas!

A packet of socks which have all these cute designs on and I believe santa got the from Next! Just look at that amazing foot photograph, I should be a sock model!

More socks! These ones omg are amazing they have polar bears on and if you don't know polar bears are my favourite animal!

And lastly I got this nivea make up bag which is faux leather and it's soo soft! And inside it comes with makeup wipes, make eye remover which I've actually wanted to try! And a really nice face moisturiser,

So my Bro got me a few things first is two tops from Next and the first one is just plain black with a high low back which has fashion on because it's what I do act college and he thought it suited me ahah! The next one may be true but think it is but it says "I'm kind of a big deal on my blog" I most probably took a better picture where you can actually see what's on there but I thought this picture was too funny, I think I was mid dance or something! Do I really pull a face like that when I dance...

Him and my mum and dad also got me a frozen pencil case cause.... yeah.. I'm cool like that ;) and my cuz got one too!

Then this masqurade mask which is.... amazing! And my mum and dad know I want to have a masqurade themed party for my 18th,

So polar bears are my favourite animal but I do really like penguins too and I got some penguin pj's which I actually opened on Christmas eve because my mum wanted me to wear them for Christmas morning, and we have matching ones too, bless her! :3

And again with the penguin theme they got me a penguin puzzle and I haven't done a puzzle in yearrss! 

So my main present  from my Mum and Dad I got a tablet and I got the Samsung galaxy tab 4 and I got the 8 inch one ^_^ to go with it I just got a screen protector cause my parents don't trust me! and a blue case which is from fyy if you were wondering,

From my Nan, Grandad, Auntie and Uncle I got the most beautiful thing of existence (apart from Zac Effron) which is the Urban Decay Vice 3 palette, and I am completely and utterly in love with it! I will definitely be doing a review of it of you guys and maybe some tutorials or FOTD with it!

My Auntie and Uncle also got me this gorgeous kimono because they know how much I love them! And this is by a brand which is sold in debenhams and it has pockets and slits on the sides and it's finished of really nicely to :3

Of course they can't go a Christmas with out getting me and my brother a selection box each !

So my Nan and Grandad also got me this set of 17 nail polished and the shades are all so lovely and I can't wait to go paint my nails!  17 Is  boots own brand like no7,  but if your not from the UK you can ship internationally on their website, ooh and I've have brought their nail polished before and they are amazeballs!

And another section box too!

So from my other Nan and Grandad I got mainly money but I'm not gonna say how much! As well as some pairs of kickers which I'm not kinda showing you guys either ;)

My nan knows I love Avon products and their makeup especially so she got me three nail polishes which are actually a new range in Avon Nan was telling me! 

As well as two eye-liners from their new Glimmerstick Diamonds range, so expect a review on the nail polishes and eye-liners to come soon! 

I also got some new slippers from them as my ones my Bro got me last year are dead! And they are sooooo soft ermuggrrd!  And they are from Accessorize but if you need new slipper you need to try these baby's out!

Lastly from them I got this lip smacker thing which has 3 lipseals in which are in the flavours coca cola, sprite and Fanta and they all taste like the drink.... omg it's amazing!

Then very last my other Auntie and her Boyfriend got me some money also and this pretty little box with this adorable set of earrings and my favourite place is Paris and the Eiffel tower is just perfect and I will definitely be wearing them lots!

Last but not least they know how much I take selfies so I got a selfie stick to put my phone on to get that perfect selfie! And it's also handy because you can fit go pros in there and I want to get one for when I go on holiday with my friends next year so I can totally use the stick to take pictures and film when out on walks and activities!

So I hope you guys like this post, let me know down  below what you got for Christmas,  what your fave present is, what you best memory from this Christmas!  And if you have done  post or video on this too let me know because if would love to be nosey and see what you guys got!

Fashion Forecast - Autumn 2014 - Festival Folk!

 So to start off with the different trends this Autumn time, (which is always my favourite time for fashion!) it is pretty the Summer festival trend but just transitioned for the colder days! We'll be seeing a lot of the same floral bohemian prints, flowy garments and neutral colours. A lot of different designers have incorporated sheepskin, suede and leather to their collections which adds to the folk look! The prints are very much country inspired, florals and Aztec type prints which are usually embroidered onto the garment.

This look was seen across lots of different runways with such designers as Tommy Hilfiger, Pucci and Burberry Prorsum, which were my favourites!

Tommy Hilfigers collection is more casual and chilled compare to the other two designers. I really like how everything is very fresh and clean cut, there's nothing too floaty and the garments are very structured. Leather, sheepskin and suede was see throughout the collection, especially within his coats and jackets like above. I also like how he has used very Autumnal colours but adds in the odd teal blue, and vibrant orange which catches your eyes instantly! There was only a few distinctive patterns in the collection, the first obvious one is checkers and tartan like above. I love how each one has different sized lines/squares and how there are multiple colours. The second pattern is the Aztec print, but only subtly, which helps to give that ski wear look.

Next is Pucci which is a lot more glam, with the dresses being heavily embroidered and with much wilder prints. There is a lot of fur being seen, from a small amount on the collar to a whole coat or vest being made. I love the intricate and detailed patterns, which takes a very geometric form, I also like the colour combinations they used in the prints. However, I do feel that some of the prints can be too much especially on the jumpsuit in picture no.6 I feel like only the top or bottom should have a print and the other be a block colour to even it out! The colours are very neutral, a lot of dark browns are used and mostly with the leather. They have also added the vibrant orange just like Tommy Hilfigers, this colour could be very big this Autumn!

Lastly its Burberry which never fail to impress me! I've seen a lot of ponchos in this collection which I really like as they have re-invented it with new prints and fabrics, my favourite one is suede on one side and fur on the other. Burberry's garments are a lot more flowy than the other two, which is nice to see, the have the bohemian shape and colours but with an abstract print. I like the tone of yellow which they have incorporated as I didn't see it too much and I kinda like it especially with the floral print they paired with it. 

So do you guys like this trend for Autumn, what's your thoughts on it? Let me know below! Also who's your favourite collection you've seen for A/W 2014? I hope you liked this post and don't forget to follow me on GFC or Bloglovin so you don't miss my next fashion forecast so you know the other trends for this Autumn! Until next time have an awesome amazing day...

Spring/Summer 2014 Beauty Trends - Raw Beauty

So today I am doing another post on beauty trends for this year! There are just so many! So today is Raw Beauty, every season we see many new variations of this natural beauty. The goal is to create natural-looking makeup look which conceals your flaws and defines your features, than to transform your face to make  yourself look different. This dose mean literally no mascara, which is like my life! So I may not take part in this trend ;) 

So having perfect skin is really the main part to this look so the perfect concealer is needed! these are some of the best that I have used and heard are amazing too. So if you need to find a new concealer here's a few I recommend!

Concealers by rougeinlove97 featuring NYX

The only make-up used at Alexander Wang and Balmain was a little concealer where it was needed, whilst at Christopher Kane, Guido Palau merely washed and dried hair before adding a little oil to tame any frizz. At Emilio Pucci and Giambattista Valli, eyes were given a wash of pale colour to hollow and enhance shape, whilst Lucia Pieroni complemented messy plaits with illuminated skin for a "Nineties supermodel glow" at Giles. - from Vouge!

So do you guys like this look or is it too plain?? Would you consider trying the raw beauty look or not, like me ;) Let me know below! I hope you have an awesome amazing day...
