Our Trip To Disneyland Paris.

Hello there everyone! 
Long time no blog!! So sorry it's been such a while. 
I had a laptop crisis and then it was my 21st birthday celebrations which were AMAZING, but have now sadly ended :(. 

My birthday was lovely and Joe and everyone else spoilt me rotten. He'd got me tickets to see Jake Bugg who i adore, some Tom Ford sunglasses and, a limited edition signed copy of my favourite album from my favourite band! 
(Courteeners - St Jude btw)

To top off all the celebrations me and joe went to Disneyland Paris!! 

Honestly, we both loved it so much! Like, unless you've been lucky enough to go to Disneyland you'll know what I mean when I say, you literally cannot put into words how incredible it is! I've been before when I was a lot younger and looking back, I don't think I fully appreciated it that much. 

It was also Joe's first time going to Disney and for me, to see the constant massive smile on his face was the best feeling for me! 

We've only just got back and already looking at booking to go back for longer next year and we're so excited to go back. 

I'll leave you all with some cute pictures I took of everything whist there :)

Why I'm Taking Time Away From Blogging.

Hi everyone!

So, this post Isn't one that's easy for me to do in all honesty. I somehow feel however that I've got to justify myself..

Basically, I've decided it's time to take a little time away from blogging. Lets be honest, I have been massively slacking with it due to the hectic schedule that I've had recently.

As some of you may know, I'm currently studying at college and I have so much work to try and get done it's honestly crazy and literally every waking moment I get I'm spending it doing assignments and research and trying to get on top of it all, which can I just say at the moment is IMPOSSIBLE. Seriously.

On top of all that, I have events coming up like my birthday next week and then Disney land Paris and everything else and in all honesty, I don't particularly want to spend my nights back in the hotel blogging. I just feel like it would take a bit of the shine off me being there which I know may seem bad or crazy but it's the truth.
Don't get me wrong, I will share my experience I had whilst there but it will be once I'm back and got myself a little more sorted out.

Lastly, blogging is going to be something I will be finding a little difficult because.... Last night my laptop of a year decided to break. Well, not necessarily break BUT if any of you that follow me on twitter, last night you might have seen My little tantrum I was having over Google Chrome not working on my windows 8 laptop.
As it turns out, I needed to update it to windows 10 but I couldn't because the internal memory on it wasn't enough.
My laptop is like an iPhone. If you don't have any storage for updates, theres not much more you can do. So, I will be looking to buy a new laptop at somepoint in the very near future but until then, it may be the very rare occasion that I get the chance to borrow the family laptop.


I am so sorry but it won't be for long I promise. It is only temporary.

I will be posting regular updates from Disney and everything else on Instagram, twitter and maybe even snapchat so If you want to check me out on any of those please do feel free to do so :)

Our Little Trip To Liverpool.

Well, hello there everyone! 
So, sorry for the lack of posts recently, I've been so, so busy! I've had quite a jam packed weekend\week and it's still not over yet!! 

I may have mentioned it a few times previously but at the weekend it was my lovely boyfriend's birthday so, me and his family all celebrated it by going for food at Reds True Barbecue, and can I just say, If you've not been to one yet... You definitely should!! The food is unreal. 
Anyway, as another part of his birthday celebrations we'd got tickets to go and see Noel Gallagher (who I love btw) in Liverpool. So, it made sense to make the most of it and spend a few days there. 


First things first, the Noel Gallagher gig was UNREAL. Like, seriously. I can't even put it into words how surreal it was being there. We were lucky enough to spot a gap on the barrier right at the front. It was slightly to the other side of the stage but honestly, we were still so close and saw literally everything. 
Anyone that is a fan of Oasis, I'm sure you want the same thing as me and many others and that is, Oasis to get back together, surely?!
It's something that I see people crying out for constantly on Twitter and Facebook and lets be honest, it would be unreal.  
Noel addressed this topic Monday night by with a subtle "This is for all you Oasis fans"  which he dedicated You Know We Can't Go Back - a track from his latest album Chasing Yesterday. 
Which was then followed up by a classic Oasis track Champagne Supernova. I mean come on, how could you not get emotional?! 

This is just how close we got to him! 



On our second and final full day in Liverpool, we both went on a Magical Mystery Tour. 
Basically a Rainbow coach that goes to the most iconic places in Liverpool all Beatles related. 
Now, from being a little girl and having to do a primary school project on them whilst in year 4 or 5, I've been a fan of them and their music. 
So, being in the hometown of Paul, John, George and Ringo, it only made sense to see where the Beatles story all began. 
It was a two hour tour journey and we saw the likes of Penny Lane, Strawberry fields, the houses in which they grew up in and the venues they played when they first started out as a band, as well as the old schools they all went to. 
I knew it would be really good, but I didn't expect it to be as good! 
I definitely recommend that if you're in Liverpool visiting, it's well worth going on. If you're a fan of The Beatles or not. 

Here are some pictures of everything we saw on the trip! 








All in all we had a lovely few days away and doing something different. 
Now onto Disney Land Paris for my 21st in a few weeks time. 
Excited!

What's In My Bag!

Okay, so I'll hold my hands up and admit, I am an absolute nightmare for changing my bags and the contents of them. 
So, here's what I've been carrying around with me for the past few weeks. 


handbag - So, I was in the mindset that I needed a new bag because as much as I love my Michael Kors one, it's too nice and special to be using on a daily basis and going to and from work with. So whilst shopping I found this beaut in New Look and felt like I needed it as soon as i saw it. It's the perfect size and was only £20 too so it's a bargain really. 

Purse  - I used to LOVE the huge River Island purses, but I found they were really heavy. However I love this style of purse.

Toffee Popcorn - Lately, toffee popcorn has been my addiction. Like, I can't get through a Game of Thrones night with my boyfriend without having a bag of popcorn to work my way through. I know its really bad but I can't help it.

Lipstick : MAC Velvet Teddy - This lipstick is my absolute FAVOURITE! I can't go anywhere without popping it into my bag, I think it looks perfect with whatever makeup look I go for and whatever outfit I wear. 

Hollister body mist - These are something that are quite new to me. I'm used to buying Victoria's secret, which don't get me wrong I do love them BUT I can't help but feel like they're slightly overpriced. A friend told me Hollister do ones that are just as nice, but a bit friendlier on a part time working students purse. Perfect. When I got them they were buy 2 get 2 free so instead of paying like £44 for 4 I paid half the price for 4 and they last ages! They're alot fresher and summery which is ideal for this warm weather. Definitely worth seeing what they have in :). 

And that's it for this months what's in my bag thats new! x

I Finally Have A YouTube Channel!


Hi everyone!! 
Today's post isn't the normal kind of post that I'd usually do, but who wants everything to be normal all the time? 

So, I think I should tell you. 
For a while now I've been desperately wanting to set up my own YouTube channel and do the odd Vlog for you guys as well as doing blog posts all the time. 
I've been putting it off for so long because I've not been happy with the way I look and everything, but I've decided that I'm not going to let that affect me as much, I am what I am. 

I feel like now is the right time to do that, not only because I feel confident enough to, but also because In the next month I will be making some amazing memories that I want to share with everyone! 

Coming up in the next month me and my boyfriend have his birthday to celebrate, then we're going to away to Liverpool for a few days, Then it's my 21st birthday and a few days after that we're going off to Disney Land Paris! Which is so, so exciting. 

As nervous as I am for the uploading of my first ever video, I'm also really excited at the same time and can't wait to see what happens after. 

I would love and appreciate it so much if you guys subscribed to my channel which is 

I hope to see you all over there! 
If you have your own Channel, please do comment it below and I will make sure to subscribe :)

Being an awkward person.


Being not just socially awkward, but just being an awkward person in General isn't the most pleasant. 


I've always been the same from being a young child to now. As a young child, I didn't really know what was happening and what to do about it. For instance, I'd try after school clubs and stuff but every time I tried to interact with another child of my age, they'd ignore me and run away laughing. I started to worry and think it was something that was wrong with me personally and it really, really shattered my bit of self-confidence I had. Then I suffered years of torment and bullying going through junior and senior school, which didn't help also. 

When in senior school I did try and come into myself a little more and gained a few close friends, but with all that, as well as great memories came moments that I wished I never initially made friends in the first place. 

From leaving school and sixth form, making friends and generally putting myself out there is something I began to struggle with and still do to this day. An example of this, me and my boyfriend have been together almost 8 months now, and almost if not every weekend we see his family and friends and only now, nearly 8 months later, I'm only starting to feel like I can be myself around them and not feel like I have to stand in the corner quiet and not get as involved with everything.

When contemplating setting up a blog it was something I had major anxiety about, the thought of putting myself out there on to the internet for all the  to see if they stumbled upon my tiny little corner of it was and still is frightening for me. 

Ultimately, one day I would love to get myself in the blogging community and make friends via social media and even just get myself out there a lot more and maybe even help people that go through the same thing as what I do every day. 

I would just like to say, thank you so much for coming over to my blog and reading this post. It's one I've wanted to do for a while but never really had the courage to. It honestly does mean a lot that you've taken the time to read this post :) x

Haircare Routine.

This is a post that I've been wanting to do for a while now. For years I've struggled finding the perfect products and routine for my hair. Which, if you're reading this you're probably thinking "surely she's joking?" I promise you, I'm not. 
My hair is so, so fine but luckily for me I have a lot. Apparently that's what works in my favour. 
I was also, never in the routine of getting it cut, it was one of them one time luxury things which I've not learnt it THE worst thing to do. 

To most of you reading (or all) The stuff I'll put in this post might be common knowledge, but I've learnt this common knowledge the hard way. 

The first thing I did was find a salon that did my hair exactly as I wanted and get into the routine of going there to get my hair cut every 6 weeks. After 2 appointments I noticed an instant change. After every cut it felt much healthier. I soon discovered it was the struggle of trying to style my hair like they did.

After searching endlessly and trying numerous products, I finally found the shampoo and conditioner that did exactly what it says on the bottle and does what I want it to do. 


It was the Loreal Elvive Fibrology Thickening shampoo and conditioner. Honestly It's amazing. 
The tangle teezer is also a perfect product. I find because my hair is so fine, no matter how many times in a day I brush my hair, it still get's obscenely knotted. Its a nightmare. 
The tangle teezer just glides straight through the knots. I'd be honestly pulling my hair out if it wasn't for this! 

The first step of my routine is brushing through my hair. I've found if I brush through my hair right before stepping into the shower, it washes so much easier. It also dries in a way that's a lot more maintainable after and not just like a massive frizz ball. 

The second thing I do, it condition straight away, this is purely because it gets rid of any knots that I've missed before or something. 

Thirdly I shampoo. The only downfall I have with this shampoo is it leaves a really straw like feel on my hair, that's not because I've conditioned before it does it when I haven't too. I don't fully understand why that is, but it honestly still works a trick on my hair. 

Lastly, I put more conditioner through it to give it the softer feel and healthier look. 

All in all, I've found this routine to be the best for me. It looks and feels so healthy and a lot thicker than it did before I started the whole process.
