October Faves!!

-




I am so excited to be back with another monthly favourites post and this month I have had a lot of favourites! These are my favourite posts to read and write and always look forward to them!!

I'm going to start by sharing some apps I have been loving, and I rarely share my favourite apps because I don't think "Wow! They are amazing!" like I do with other things, but this month I have had two. The first is Pinterest, which has been a favourite of mine for a while now and this month I have used it more than ever! The second is Sandbox and this is like a colour by numbers app, and I just love it as it keeps me occupied on my bus journeys to and from school! There are 1000s of designs so you can colour anything from Nutella to a stick insect!! 

I have had a few beauty favourites this month, the first being the Makeup Revolution Vivid Baked Highlighter in "Golden Lights". I have been wearing this pretty much every day this month, even for school as it can vary in pigment depending on how much you put on, so it can create a "subtle glow" or "go big or go home" highlight! My next favourite has been the Topshop Lipstick in the shade "Boardroom" which is a grey-nude colour, and I just think it goes well with most makeup looks! It is quite long lasting which I love, and I really want to pick up more lipsticks in the future! My final beauty favourite is the NIVEA Soft Refreshingly Soft Moisturising Cream. Now autumn is here, my skin is starting to get really dry and this helps it to stay moisturized! I have been using this in both morning and evening and have found it to work really well.

October meant the return of a couple of my favourite TV shows, both of which I love!! The first show that returned was Riverdale, and I have been counting down since the end of series 1, and it finally returned! As I'm writing this because I am pre-writing posts before I go away, 2 episodes have aired and I won't spoil it but I thought episode 1 was amazing, but I didn't really like episode 2 as I think the writers are following a storyline of another TV show I love. Another series that returned is The Apprentice. I feel like a middle aged woman when I watch it but I love it! It is one of the funniest series out there as most people just argue and I think it's hilarious!! My favourites this year are James, Anisa and Sarah-Jayne. The final show I have been loving is Geordie Shore, and I have been watching the newest series and I think its so funny! I love Chloe, Marnie and Gary the most!

I always love my music and this month is no different. My favourite songs for this month are: Feel it Still by Portugal the Man, Never Be Like You by Flume ft Kai, Havana by Camilla Cabello, I'm in Love With a Monster by Fifth Harmony, Finders Keepers by Mabel, On My Mind by Don Diablo, Elaina's Theme by Tom's Player and Glorious by Macklemore ft Skylar Grey. I recommend listening to all of the songs, they're amazing!!

Another thing that I rarely put on favourites posts is clothes, usually because I cannot choose certain pieces I have loved, but this month I have picked out 3. The first is my Hoop Earrings, which I bought from Primark, and I have worn these every time I have gone out except for school and dance. They make me feel so sassy when wearing them! the second item is my Grey Jeans from Matalan. They are acid wash which I really like since I have a hole in my black jeans, I have been wearing these and I love them because grey is my favourite colour. My final item in this favourites is my not so White Converse. I have the low tops and I think they are such an essential pair of shoes to own! They go with almost every outfit so that is why I have been loving them!

I hope you liked this very long favourites! I'm sorry, I ramble! My next post is my last in my "A Bit About Me" series so don't miss it: Tuesday at 5pm! love

    Loved all your favourites and I love the sound of the Sandbox app, it sounds right up my street!! I've never tried a lipstick from Topshop so I'll have to look next time I'm in store and I live in my hoops and converse!!

summer skincare routine

-

Skincare is usually not something I care too much about, and as I do have pretty clear skin. However, I have wanted to have a routine in place, as I am trying to reduce the amount of break outs I have! I mean, what a great time to be writing this, considering I have just broken out with a few spots around my nose! I don't own a lot of skincare products, and its just because my skin rarely needs a full, deep cleanse, but these products I use on a daily basis. In the morning, I will only apply the last 3 products, just because I don't usually have a lot of time to focus on skincare! In the evenings, I start by taking off my makeup with the Garnier Micellar Water and a cotton pad, which thoroughly takes off my makeup, meaning I can skip the stage of cleansing. If I am feeling lazy however, I just remove my makeup with a makeup wipe. I then hydrate my face with the Mario Badescu Facial Spray, which helps my skin from not going dry in the summer months. This also gi...

3 ways to make your spotify 'aesthetic'

-

Music is something that makes me so happy, and you find me listening to it a lot of the time (as I’m writing this I have my summer playlist on), whether that be with my airpods in and being respectful to everyone, blasting out my records, or just having a party in my room (this happens more often than not!). I use and update my spotify account regularly, and like to keep it as ‘aesthetic’ as possible, and there are ways to do this. I will link my spotify below if you’d like any inspiration 😊 1.       Update your playlists regularly. New songs are released weekly, and you can often find songs that you forget about but never add them to playlists. By updating playlists, it means you’re not having the same selection of songs on repeat, which can eventually get boring. As well as adding new songs, removing songs you don’t like as much anymore or don’t fit a certain vibe in a playlist, it can help you to enjoy some playlists a lot more, rather than having to ski...

  Hello and welcome back to the blog, or welcome if you are new! I’m here with another extra collab post, I have been working with Vivian and Sairah from iridescent.photo.blog to bring you this cross over collab! The girls have just finished secondary school and are about to start sixth form/college, and I have just finished sixth form, I got my A-Levels (literally yesterday as I’m writing this). So, I am writing a letter to my 16 year old self, of what I wish I’d known, and the girls will write a letter to their 18 year old selves, which they can refer back to when they are in my position! I will link all of their socials, as well as their blog and post down below! Dear Amelia, I know you’re petrified to start sixth form in a brand-new place, with so many new people, and with a dress code that you’re not so keen on! But I tell you now, you’re going to enjoy the 2 years (most of the time) and you actually really like the dress code once you put your own spin on it! The bi...
