For me music is something that I absolutely love. I do have such a varied music taste however, I do sway towards more Arctic Monkeys, Kasabian and so on, but I decided to make a Spotify playlist of all my favourite songs of 2015 that have been in the charts so I hope you enjoy.

Weekend in Manchester.

So, as some of you may know, me and my boyfriend went off to Manchester on Friday for the night to see a band I absolutely love. The Courteeners.

The original plan was to get there fairly early, drop our bags off and do a bit of shopping but instead we ended up getting there mid afternoon which worked out a lot better for us. 

We headed off to Manchester mid-afternoon and As soon as we arrived, dropped our bags off and headed straight off to the Christmas Market. And can I just say, how festive and cute is it?! Like, seriously. 

I can honestly say, I LOVE Manchester Christmas Market and I honestly wish I could have spent a lot longer there. There was so much that I wanted to buy. 

Manchester market will definitely be a annual trip for me I think.

What's in my bag.

Something that I am forever doing is swapping and changing my bag, and I always feel like I need a new bag, even if I don't. (that's a lie, a girl can never have too many bags). 
Something I don't always change though is the contents of my bag. So here they are. 


1. victoria's Secret body spray - Such a flirt. 
This has to go everywhere with me! Like, I hate feeling like I smell in public, even when I know I don't. Without it I feel so lost. 

2. Kleenex Tissues. 
Winter has definitely arrived and with the winter season comes a lot of runny noses and tearey eyes from the wind. They're just an ideal item to carry around. 

3. Soap and Glory Hand Food. 
This is also something I have to carry around with me, I cannot bare the thought of being on a bus and someone sneezing and then touching the bell to get off and then me touching it after them. No thank you, thats not for me. 

4. MAC Lipstick - Pickled Plum. 
A few months a go me and my lovely boyfriend went to Liverpool for a little get away and I could not resist visiting the MAC shop there and bought myself the shade I have been addicted to for the last 2 months since. Pickled Plum. 

5. Earphones. 
Music is something that's a massive influence to me and I cannot leave the house without my earphones. Listening to the likes of Arctic Monkeys or Courteeners through them definitely makes journeys via public transport a lot more bearable. 

6. Purse. 
There's not really an explanation for this, other than it carries my money, receipts, cards and bus pass in it. 

7.  Tub of Skittles. 
Usually, I have a tub of mint chewing gum but, I fancied a change. That, and the fact that I love skittles! Especially the red and orange ones. 

8. Notebook. 
This little notebook is like a bit of a godsend for me! It has literally everything in it! From blog plans and ideas, to now very recent Christmas shopping lists, my weekend away packing list and basically everything. 

What are your hand bag essentials? Leave a comment and let me know :)

Brow Perfection.

A very wise woman once said to me, "eyebrows are sisters, not twins". I have recently just realised how true her words were. 
I've honestly never done anything with my brows because I've always been too cautious with doing so, until now. 
Admittedly I don't shape, pluck or wax them but I don't feel the need to. 
However, I do fill them in. 
And to do that, I use this absolute treat. 

It's the Barry M shape and define brow kit, to apply it I use the Real Techniques eyeliner brush. 

Now, I've had this for a while but, tried it once and it turned into a complete disaster but, with time filling in my brows I've gotten a lot better at it and decided to try doing something new. 
Can I just say, this is unreal! Well, for something that's on the high street and affordable it is anyway. 
The real techniques eyeliner brush is also the best applicator for it, It gets all the areas it needs to and doesn't miss anything. 

With these two products I really do achieve brow perfection.

Pretty Little Thing.

Have you ever been in the situation that, you're going somewhere fancy or a party or something, and you need something to wear, but the realisation hits that you've left it right till the last minute and your only option is to look online and get next day delivery? I definitely have, and a few weeks back, it happened. 
But, it was not to worry because Pretty Little Thing had my back and saved the day! 

Whilst watching an episode of TOWIE the adverts came on and there was an advert for PrettLittleThing.com, and thought, well why not go on and have a look what they have. And so that is what I did. 

OH MY GOD. It is AMAZING. Like seriously. 

After literally 10 minutes of looking, I found this beauty and knew it was a must have. 

(admittedly it's not the best picture but if you want to see what it really looks like, go check it out here : https://www.prettylittlething.com/lindie-peach-sequin-pattern-jumpsuit.html)

I just fell in love with it instantly. What makes me love it even more is the Flares. They're so in this season and well, everyone loves a good pair of flares. 
It only came in at £35 too which is an absolute steal! 

It's a site I have fallen in love with and I just cannot get enough 
I definitely will be making more and more purchases from there!!

Nails of The Week.

Let me just start this off by saying, I cannot get enough of Barry M Nail Varnishes. 
Seriously. The new colour for the week (or longer if the last one I had is anything to go by) is that of Ruby Red. 
I feel like this is so, so, appropriate! 

Firstly, I would like to apologise for the untidiness of them. It was a very last minute rushed thing. 
Secondly, the picture doesn't really do the colour any justice which is annoying.
Thirdly, I am obsessed. 

Now, as we are all aware, Christmas is just around the corner! I'm not one to get into the christmas spirit this early on but, this year is completely different. I am definitely in the spirit of it right now! I feel like this nail varnish is perfect for subtly showing it. Its so festive but could also be worn at any time of the year. 

I am loving it so, so much so for this absolute treat, Thank you Barry M. 

Christmas Wishlist.

As we all know, Christmas is just around the corner which is pretty frightening because where this year has gone I have absolutely no idea. 
But anyway back to the point, I thought, why not do a Christmas wishlist. There's not much but they're the items that I really really want. If I put them all I'd be here all day!  So.. Here it is.. Enjoy :). 

Michael Kors Selma Black Tote Bag - £330. 

Michael Kors Bedford Large Black Zip Around Purse £130. 


Marc by Marc Jacobs Rose Gold Watch £175. 


Urban Decay Naked Vault - £181.
