Hey, it's been a very long time.
Apologies to my blog for abandoning it & anyone who may have read it from time to time, being an adult got in the way.
I started to miss having somewhere to talk about the things I like & just bits about my life but I feel like this blog has had its day.. If you look through the posts before this, none of the photos exist anymore.
When I was writing on this blog, I was really anxious & embarrassed about the idea of anyone I know stumbling across it.
I've since come to the realisation that, I shouldn't be ashamed or embarrassed about writing a blog about things that I enjoy.
So because of that, I wanted to leave all the anxiety & stressed feelings with this blog, and move on with another one.
I'd really appreciate if you'd carry on following there, if not, it's okay.
Thank you to the people who used to seem genuinely interested in this blog back when I was active on here. ♥

Autumn is my absolute favourite season of the year, and once we hit the end of August i'm all over it and can't wait for Summer to become a distant memory.

Having a candy floss as big as your head is pretty much necessary when the Steam fair is in town, it was super cute to just stroll around in the evening, we even went on the little ghost train, which did not disappoint.
I recently moved out with my boyfriend and a friend and with moving house, comes setting up artsy areas for photographs. In all honesty though, I have really enjoyed setting little areas up.

Pinafore - Topshop
T shirt - Urban Outfitters
Nikes - Schuh

In all honesty I'm a little bit obsessed with pinafores, one pinafore just isn't really enough, in my opinion. This pinafores been a bit of a staple for me this summer, mostly because I hate dressing for summer, so wearing this helps me kinda look cute and like i'm actually enjoying the weather. (i'm not) I got it in Topshop for £18 in the sale, which you can probably tell I was pretty impressed with.
Also just wanted to add that I'm super excited for Autumn and Christmas, I've been over Summer since June, sorry I'm just one of those people.

Top - Newlook
Culottes - Boohoo
Trainers - Nikes from Schuh

I'm gonna be honest and say when culottes started surfacing last year, I hated them, I thought they were gross and weird. It wasn't until my boyfriend (my boyfriend is literally my style advisor) kept going on about how nice he thought I'd look in them, that I considered trying them.. And I'm so glad he did, cause these are the comfiest things ever, they're amazing for summer and they still look stylish. I now honestly want so many different types and colours, I'm a culottes addict.

Do you have any culottes?

Hey, so for this months love list I have a few old favourites and some new discovery's, I've also decided that I'm going to make these love lists a mix of all things, so its not just beauty, or just lifestyle, it's just a few bits from each category.

.The 1975's album is perfection, I honestly have no other way to describe it, this album has pretty much been on repeat since my boyfriend very kindly treated me to it,(♥♥) I got the Limited edition, Clear vinyls, so it's also fun to just look at.
.The other album that I've been obsessing over is Melanie Martinez's Crybaby, this album is literally nothing like anything else I have, it's a strange experience when you first listen to it, because it comes across as 'cutesy' but when you actually pay attention to the lyrics and realise what the songs mean, they're actually a bit disturbing and just sad, but I still love listening to this stuff.
.Another favourite as of lately is my Instax Mini 8, which isn't new, I've had it for over a year, but with it being nicer weather, I've found myself using it more and something it's just much nicer to capture moments on a cute little polaroid.

.I'm going to say now that I didn't really want to feature this Garnier Sun-Kissed Look Lotion, pretty much because it's not cruelty free, but I have been using it as of recent because I bought it a couple of years back and it does seem a waste to just get rid of it. When I finish it I do intend to move on to the Palmer's Natural Bronze moisturiser, which is the same idea. Anyways this is just a gradual tanner which never leaves me streaky and smells like juicy apricots. (But I would say if you were using Cruelty Free, to try the Palmer's one)
.M.A.N.G.O body spray is just the one, I was using The Body Shop one all last summer and it was my staple, but this time I thought I would try the Boots Extracts range and let me say, it has not disappointed. It's just a really nice juicy, fruity smell and in Spring/Summer I just think it's a nice staple to incorporate to your routine, I always get comments on how nice I smell when I use this! Absolute dream.
.NYX is the ultimate to me now, how I ever survived without it before they finally came to Boots is beyond me. The transluscent powder is a must for me now, as it's actually trasluscent, it does exactly what it says on the tin! I've been going a wee bit mad over NYX's matte lip creams since they've arrived, but I decided to give the Liquid Suedes a go in the shade Soft Spoken, which is a faint pink toned brown, it's very similar to the type of shade I've been trying to find for so long! So I'm very pleased, my only issue is that I always somehow get a little bit on my teeth, so be wary and double check your teeth if you were considering this product.

What did you love these past couple of months?

I used to do posts like these a couple of years ago, but just stopped, I think mostly because I ran out of photos to post, but I've decided I want to incorporate my personal photos into my blog more, just because photography and filmography is very important to me, so it feels right to involve it into my blog.
Anyways, these are just a few of my favourite photos that I've snapped recently, I am so proud of both the blossom photos, I'm so happy with how they came out. ♥

Thanks for having a read.
