Burst of Colour

I have recently purchased a Rimmel London "Lasting Finish Colour Rush"  in 600 "On Fire". It is a deep pink pop of colour; very bright and perfect for summer! 
I wouldn't usually go for such a bright colour but it really makes a difference to my face. It could brighten up any lips and is very moisturising. It also stayed put for 8 hours without fading- amazing! 
I've been looking for a new colour for a long time and this was the perfect buy! Xxx

The Next Journey

After four days in LA, we travelled to San Francisco! It's a really beautiful state with lots and lots of culture- so much it was a little overwhelming for me. 

We stayed in a hotel right next to Pier 39. I loved this Pier as it had lots of cute little shops to buy presents for the loved ones waiting at home! 
We took a tour of San Francisco- this the most crooked street in the world Lombard Street. 
This is one of the best pictures I have ever taken- a beautiful view over all of the state.
On the tour, we stopped off at the famous Golden Gate Bridge!
We had a tour of the prison- Alcatraz. It was creepy but also amazing to see and hear such raw and shocking things. This is a view inside one of the cells! I would definitely reccomend taking the opportunity to do this if you ever go to San Francisco, as it is an experience I'll never forget. 
The prison had a gorgeous view of the state- which must have been devastating for the prisoners! 
I thoroughly enjoyed this trip, and I'm so lucky to have experienced all of this at such a young age. I hope you have enjoyed reading this as much as I have loved documenting it in this blog! Xxx

California Dreamin'


Last year, I took a trip to California with some friends, and I can honestly say it was one of the best weeks of my life. My only problem was my separation anxiety meant that I was very very homesick, but I pushed past that and had a brilliant time! 
We hopped off the plane at LAX, as Miley Cyrus would say ;)
I was mesmirised as I walked down the streets of LA. It just felt unreal to experience such culture at a young age. The weather was gorgeous and we all had a fabulous night bowling... Until we started to fall asleep in a diner, as we'd been up for 36 hours! 
After a well needed night's sleep, we headed to Universal Studios in Hollywood. My friends and I decided to buy fast passes, so we went on every ride! It was great. I'm not a big rollercoaster lover, but a lot of the attractions in this theme park are stimulated, so it was perfect for me! 
The Studio Tour was a breath taking experience. Fire, water, plane crashes, sharks... Exciting!! 
I did try one roller coaster- The Mummy Ride. It was fun and had lots of cool lighting effects. I'm glad I went on it because I can say I have been to every single attraction in Universal Studios Hollywood. 
We also went to the Universal City Walk at night time. Where I sat with my  best friend eating Taco Bell, watching One Direction on a huge screen- great moment. 

The next day, we went to the Hollywood Walk of Fame! I took pictures of almost all of the stars, but here are some of my faves...
Then we took a walk down the beautiful Santa Monica Pier, followed by a walk to Venice Beach. This was probably my favourite part of the whole holiday- I LOVE beaches! 

It was all very very beautiful. 

Finally, we went to Rodeo Drive. It was very posh! My friends were in designer heaven, as they are all big designer lovers. We went to places like Chanel and spent hours enviously looking at all of the things we knew we couldn't afford- it doesn't sound it, but it was fun. 
This trip was amazing, and it was so lovely to be able to spend it with some of my best friends- even if I did miss my family! We also went to San Francisco, but I'll leave that for another post. Please feel free to tell me any of your fun stories of the past :) xxx

Classy Hair Style

I recently attended a Christening, and decided to try a more sophisticated look with my hair. I went for a side bun, as I think it is quite different and unique. I made it even more unique by rolling one the left side of my hair into the bun, and plaiting the right side of my hair into the bun. I recieved many compliments throughout the day and liked the hairstyle because it was out of my face and felt comfortable. 
Here's the back, you can see the right side plaited. 

 Then the left side, which I rolled away from my face before clipping it with some bobby pins. 

If any of you have any sophisticated or unique hairstyles, please let me know- I'd love to try them! Xxx
