Christmas List 2015 | Beauty and Fashion

Hi everyone,

Oh. Em. Gee. Christmas is next month and I could not be more excited! Throughout this month I am going to list all of the things I want for Christmas. I’m going to do it in categories of beauty, body and random to break it up a bit so I'm not giving you a massive post all in one go. Btw sorry it has taken so long for this post to happen, but I have school and yesterday (my rescheduled day of posting) the power went out at my house, so I couldn't do my finishing touches on the post. Anyway, on with the post!

This week, I  am showing all the things I want that are beauty related, starting off with the Bourjois Colour Boost Lip Crayon in Peach on the Beach. I have wanted this for AGES. I never go out to the shops (because of school, DEFINITELY NOT laziness, haha) so I have never had a chance to buy it. I really want it because I have seen so many good reviews on it and the colour is really pretty.

Next! Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascara. I have seen this on TV ads and it looks really good. I KNOW not to completely trust ads, but the reviews on this are amazing. Again, I never go to the shops so I haven’t been able to buy it.

This is a bit of a weird want for Christmas, but anyway. Formula 10.0.6 Skin Clarifying Mud Mask. I read about this in a magazine I read recently and they said it was a really good mask to clear out your pores. I am a teenager, so a pore clearing mask would be really good for me to try.

I also saw the Katy Perry Mad Potion perfume in a magazine recently, so I looked up the “notes” in it on Fragrantica and it sounds like it smells really good. It has notes of__________.

I am also going to include fashion in the beauty section because where else could it go? I have seen loads of people absolutely rocking high waisted denim shorts. I want ones that aren’t distressed because I don’t like that look, but I still want high waisted ones. They’ll make my legs look longer which will make me look taller, and no short girl can say they WANT short legs, do they?

I want a crop top to go with the shorts. Specifically I want a pastel one because I. LOVE. PASTELS. I have a crop top already, and it’s really nice, but I want a plain crop top so I can dress it up with big necklaces.

Finally, I want rose gold sleepers. I am OB. SESSED. with rose gold at the moment and I haven’t worn earrings to school in a very long time (I'm talking years). I think rose gold is allowed at my school and I don’t even care if it’s not, imma wear them anyway!

So, that is the end of the first installment of my Christmas list. I hope you enjoyed it and I will see you next week with the next installment!

I’m going to try a new thing where I ask a question at the end of my posts, so here goes…

What beauty and fashion things do you want for Christmas? Do you want the same things that I want?

Semi Formal OOTN

Hi everyone,

As I sit here on my couch at home, sick with laryngitis (my treatment is to shut up), I thought that there was no better opportunity to write you a blog post on this fine morning. It's not a long one, because I have to get  on with school work.

My semi formal was last Sunday. I went with no one (#foreveralone, am I right?). It was on the Kookaburra Queen and I had loads of fun with my friends (go check my instagram).

I forgot to take a picture of them on the day and I got my foot injured on the night, so this'll have to do!

I wore:

Lauren Printed 2-in-1 Prom Dress from Forever New

Tessa Covered Block Heels from Forever New

Bracelet from Lovisa

I got my hair and makeup done at Stefan, btw

Clutch and Earrings from my family

That is my entire post this week. I'm sorry it was so short, but monthly favourites next week! Yay!

See you then, bye!

September Favourites

A rose from my garden means that spring is upon us!

Hi everyone!

It's that time of the month again. No not THAT time of the month, but the time of the month that I tell you all my favourite products that I have used in the past month. Could I have said month many more times then? I don't think so. Throughout September I have used many of the things I got for my birthday, so you can see the best of the bunch!

Body

I finished up my Snow Fairy body wash sample that I got from Lush LAST YEAR. Yes, I know, I am a terrible sample user. Anyway, it smells absolutely incredible. I can't pinpoint what the scent is exactly, but I can tell you that it is very sweet. I highly recommend it to all the sweet-tooths out there, but be warned that it is a strong scent. I am sorry that I don't have a picture of it, but my mum already put the bottle in the rubbish as it was empty. You can see it in my Spring morning routine if you want to.

Since I finished my Lush body wash, I moved on to The Body Shop's Japanese Cherry Blossom Shower Gel that I got for my birthday from one of my bestest friends. It smells SO GOOD. It lathers up amazingly with only a little bit of it on the loofah thing. The scent of it doesn't really linger, but I still love it!

Another product that I have been loving this month is The Body Shop Shea Body Butter sample that I got from the same friend for my birthday (it came in a pack thing). This definitely does not smell the best, but the way it moisturises my skin makes up for it. As I said in my Spring morning routine, I only really use it at night time to not offend anyone else's noses as it is a scent that lingers.

Books

I have really liked reading Finding Audrey by Sophie Kinsella this month. I got for my birthday from my auntie. It is about a girl called Audrey who wears sunglasses because of her anxiety disorder. The book is about her getting over the disorder with the help of her crush, Linus. I have not finished it yet, but that is the basic gist of it.

I have flicked through the pages of Love Tanya by Tanya Burr and have utterly loved every word I have read. The book contains many things that Tanya Burr has learned and experienced, including recipes and stories of her childhood. I particularly like the recipes section and I can't wait to try and bake her cookies!

I didn't really have any makeup favourites this month because I am still using the same things as last year, but I don't wear makeup much so don't judge me to harshly!

That is all the things that I have loved throughout this month of September. I do hope you enjoyed this post and if you did, then +1 it. If you want to read more posts from me then leave me a follow. Down in the comments section below, tell me your favourite things that you have used this September and I might buy them and try them. Anyway, that is all from me for now.

Bye!

PS; There might not be a post from me next week as I will be on school camp for the majority of the week.
