Wishlist #1

I absolutely love doing online shopping, its easy and you can do it in the comfort of your own home plus there's more choice. Browsing online I couldn't help putting items in my basket and then realizing I cant buy any of this, well at least for the time being. So I put it all into this wishlist because I love these types of post, and I can be a bit nosy.

These are just some of the things that are on my list but I probably wont end up getting most the things because one I probably cant afford it all and even if I could I probably wouldn't be able to eat for a couple of months. All the pictures are linked if you want to check them out for yourself. And let me know what your favourite online shops are?

Current playlist

I have been downloading songs and sorting out my music playlist and I have also started using Spotify cause I honestly hate iTunes so very much, I just find it very complicated. Anyway I thought it would make a good post, I personally love to know what kind of music people listen to and I love it more when people have the same taste as me. Here is my Spotify playlist:



I hope you liked my playlist. I don't listen to one specific genre as you could probably tell. These are the songs I like and have had on repeat recently. I will be doing more of these in the future. What are some of the songs you have been listening to?

Random thoughts

I have gotten a terrible case of writers block and I have only been blogging for just over month if that. And I literally had no idea what to blog for today and I am trying to blog everyday during my half term because I have all this spare time and want to be a bit more productive. So today I am sharing my random thoughts and let me warn you I can be a little very weird. Moving on here are some of my strange thoughts:
  • Is it just me or is everyone a little confused about the fact that the UK go back an hour in winter. I'm not gonna lie I never ever thought about it until yesterday when I heard my dad talking about it. Why is it only the UK? What is the point? 
  • Why is it that girls are the ones to wear makeup and not boys, why do they get to not be judged for having acne or not having even skin tone or long eyelashes? Boys have never been told that they don't look good without makeup.
  • Why aren't books waterproof? I read this somewhere and I cant stop thinking about it. What if you could read a book in the shower or underwater or in the rain.
  • Another one I read is why don't we learn useful things in school. We learn about algebra something we will most probably never use but we don't learn about things we will need in the future, applying to universities, courses, bank accounts and things like life skills yet I have to pass algebra to have a good future.
  • Halloween. As much as I love it. I don't get the point. Who's ideas was it to create a day where everyone dresses up as something scary and gets sweets for it.
  • Life. Deep, but honestly I don't get it. We live our lives studying so that we can earn money and at the end of it all we die and it all means nothing. 
Those were just a few of my thoughts, I can be a bit weird but I thought it was worth sharing. What are some of your thoughts. And did you like this kind of post? I have started to like writing post that aren't beauty/fashion related. Anyway let me know what you think.

Autumnal lips

It is probably one of my favourite seasons Autumn. Its when it gets a cooler and you can sweaters and boots and obviously Halloween. I am not the biggest lip product fan but I have been loving some lip products and they are all drug store. I tried my best with the pictures sorry if they aren't the best quality I still am figuring it out.
(L-R) Revlon colorstay overtime in infinite rasberry, Revlon colorstay ultimate in 095 Royal Raisin , Revlon colorstay ultimate in 040 Brilliant Bordeaux , Rimmel London Lasting Finish lipstick in 120 cutting edge 
The Revlon colorstay overtime in infinite rasberry is a great everyday autumn shade as it isn't to dark or bold its a lot more subtle and it stays on for the whole day plus it comes with a gloss side so that it doesn't feel to drying. I've used it quite a lot as I;m almost out.
The Revlon colorstay ultimate in royal raisin is also a great everyday shade, it is a bit more darker but i absolutely love it. It goes on like lipgloss and dries into a lipstick and it does not budge, it can be a little drying so maybe a lip balm underneath or above it can help add some moisture another thing I'm not a big fan of is that the brush gets a lot of product so when you apply it a lot gets on your lips. And I also have the Revlon colorstay ultimate in brilliant bordeaux and its a little more red but its beautiful. I wouldn't wear this everyday but on a night out or an occasion it looks really pretty, once again it does feel a little dry and you get a lot of product on with brush so i use my finger to blend it out.
And the last product is from Rimmel London is one of the lasting finish lipsticks in cutting edge. And this is the most beautiful purple shade and I really love it. You need to add a few coats to get the bold dark purple shade and its so moisturizing on the lips but you do need to touch it up as it doesn't dry. I just cant get over the colour its so pretty. And a perfect autumnal shade.

I hope you liked this post once again I am so sorry that the picture quality isn't great, my camera stopped working so I had to resort to using my iphone. What are some of your favourite autumnal lip products?

Random favourites

Its come to the end of September and so I thought it would be a great time to do a favourites post. This is a couple of days late but oh well. I wanted to change it up from the usual beauty and fashion favourites, mostly cause i haven't been loving anything that much. But I do have quiet a few random favourites.

TV show favourite- American Horror Story
I have been obsessing over American Horror Story. I'm currently towards the end of season 3 which is coven. I still have a few more episodes to go but I get a little scared so I've taken a little break. But i do recommend it. And I cant wait for Freak show only a few more days left.
The x factor
I literally wait for the weekend cause x factor nights are my favourite. This year its been intense and i have been loving it. I have so many favourites this year, Jack Walton, Andrea Faustini, Paul Akister, Ben Haenow, Jay James and Only the young. 

App/websites favourites- Bloglovin
I had never used bloglovin before until I started this blog and I absolutely love it. Its a great way to get your blog exposed and I have found so many great blogs. Even if you don't have a blog its a great site. I always find myself on the app when I'm lying in bed at night. Follow me here.

Blogs- From roses
I have really been loving this blog. The photography is amazing and so is the content. Its just a great quality blog with great posts. Really suggest checking it out.
I have also been loving this blog. It has some great content and i love the photography too. My favourite post has been the 8 ways to stay positive post. Also recommend you check this blog out.

Food favourites- Kellogg nutri-grain breakfast fruit bars (strawberry)
I love these. I have them for breakfast and they are just quick to eat if you are in a hurry. And strawberry is my favourite, I haven't tried any other flavour. And I think are quiet healthy I'm not sure though but lets just say they are.

Music- The 1975
I have been loving The 1975. I have had the whole album on repeat. My favourite songs have been the city and chocolate. 

Those were my random favourites this month. And leave some of your favourites in the comments below i would love to know.
