My Amazing 2013

So 2014 is upon us and my gosh hasn't it been a good one for me. Lets just start off saying everything I have done this year has changed my life and the way I see it. 2013 has taught me not to believe everything what has been said and not to trust everyone. Also I have found out not everyone can be nice. "you can be the ripest, juiciest peach in the world, And there's always going to be someone who doesn't like peaches" - Dita Von Teese. 

2013 started with a bang (literally the fireworks were spectacular). But in all seriousness at the 

beginning of the year I met many new people that later became my best friends. Also in January 

we had a lot heavy snow. I remember sitting in my english lesson and being told we can go home

earlier that day, so me and ella walked home in the snow and I was laughing so much because 

she slipped and fell, but obviously I helped her up and we both laughed together. Later that day 

we went to my other friends house and played in the snow. Then we came in and made a video

star (music video) what I uploaded to an old youtube channel to keep it for memories. You can go

and see it if you like. Click here (don't judge me I know it is bad). 

In February me and my closest friends went to nandos then creams. This was so much fun

because we all had a laugh and we were all together at the same time. 

Later on in the year I got my Iphone. I was over the moon to receive one because all my friends 

had one and felt a bit left out. Also they are amazing phones. The next day I took lots of photos 

on it at school and I thought people got a bit annoyed because they might of not wanted a 

camera right in their faces. But I thank my mum and dad so much for it and I love it to bits

The summer was one of the highlights oh the whole year. Where do I start. Firstly it was my 

birthday and i got lovely things from everyone and I had a little sleepover with my close 

girlfriends. And then I made my blog and i am so happy I made that choice to make it because

I love writing and when people read my writing it does really make me happy. The next thing I 

did in summer was summer in the city (STIC) I might of not met Dan, Phil, Tyler, Troye, Zoe or

Louise but I saw some amazing panels like the becoming youtube panel and I saw the vamps 

live what was one of the highlights of my year. Brad you may marry me okay. Yes it was 

dissapointing waiting 4 hours to meet Dan and Phil and not even get to meet them because

of all the fangirls that pushed in but if we stayed we wouldn't of saw the amazing people we 

did see like ollie white. Also in Summer we went on holiday to Grand Canaria. I did write a whole

blog post on it what is on my blog but to sum it up in one word would be AMAZING. This was the

best thing that happened to me because we rarely go on holiday because of money but this 

year we pushed ourselves to go and we sure did make a fantastic choice. And I actually got 

a tan! 

In the winter i found out who I was more and became much more independent as not many of my

close friends are in my classes anymore. But this made me talk to a whole bunch of new lovely 

people. But when I look back to year 9 I miss it lots. And then Christmas came and it was 

so amazing, I love everything I got because they are very thoughtful gifts. Also it was a nice time 

to catch up on family and just have a good time. We filmed a video for my cousins channel 

click here to watch that because I found it very funny. 

So overall this year has been fantastic. I found out myself a bit more, I made new friends, talked

to a lot more people and had amazing adventures. I am so thankful for what has happened to me

without doing all these things I probably would be a different person. I love everyone in my life

because without them I could be horrid but they make me into a better person. I love my family

and friends ever so much and I love all of you guys as well. 

Thankyou very very much for reading and I hope you all have a happy new year!

See you in 2014 for more adventures to come!! xo

Cute stocking fillers for her ☆

Hello everyone,

Its that time of year again when Santa comes to town and you're looking for the prefect gift to give to her. Her being your mum, friend, girlfriend or sister. These gifts are perfect who likes either beauty or comfort.

Firstly we have these beautiful nail polishes called sinful colors. These nail polishes are so pigmented its unreal. These were only £1.99 each and they look stunning on the nail. I got them in the shades rise and shine and dancing nails. Both of these nail polishes are really in for the winter time but also you could go for a nice berry colour and other dark colours. Also i think these nail polishes look really high end but you can find them in your local drug stores. I brought mine from boots.


The next things I picked up was 3 yaknee candle tarts. These are cute little tarts what you can pop into a yankee candle holder and put a tea light under and it makes your whole room smell lovely. The best thing about these are you can choose the scents so it makes it more special and personal. I got one of them on offer at 94p and the other two were £1.24. I got the scents fluffy towels, fireside treats marshmallow and black cherry. Fluffy towels is a very light fresh clean scent, fireside treats marshmallow smells delicious just like marshmallows and black cherry smells like a rich fresh cherry which I absolutely love. Also if you are feeling extra nice you can get them a jar candle which are so cute and cozy for the winter time.

Every girl needs underwear right? Topshop sells the cutest underwear in the world! The do a deal where you can get 3 pairs of underwear for £10 and obviously I had to get someone a pair or 3. I have some and seriously they are so comfy and every girl for sure would think the same. Okay this might be a bit weird that I am talking about underwear but we will let that one slide. I got ones with a little pug on it but its wearing a little Christmas hat because it is Christmas. Also I got ones with little red and white penguins with lace and they are very cute and lastly I have got a floral print with black lace at the bottom and they are really nice. Topshop have a wide selection and I love them all! So yes I have just been talking about underwear but whatever!

Finally I have really cute primark socks. You can never beat primark socks they are cheap but so so adorable. Socks don't have to be boring a wide variety of chooses gives the perfect sock for anyone. I brought these really cute owl socks and they were £3.00 for a pack of 3. You can also buy Christmas socks if you like because it is winter. What I like about primark socks are they are really soft and comfy.



I hope this blog post has helped you in some way of what to buy either your friends, mum, sister or girlfriend or anyone else I have missed off. I hope you have fun Christmas shopping and I will see you next week. Goodbye xo

Aussie 3 minute miracle frizz remedy review ♡

Hello all,

It's been quite a while since I have done a blog post but I am back now and that won't happen again!

Now I have been using a new conditioner for about a month now whats called Aussie 3 minute miracle frizz remedy and I am in love with it! The first time I used it my hair honestly felt the healthiest it has ever felt in a long time.

What you have to do it wash your hair then you put the conditioner in and leave it in for 3 minutes the rinse it out. Even after you wash it straight out it feels and feels really nice.

The product smells really nice, it's sort of like a bubble gum smell but not to sweet. And the product its self is a really really light peach.

Does it keep your hair from frizzing?
The answer is yes! Honestly since I have used this product my hair has stayed smooth and straight all day. Also I don't wash my hair everyday I was it every other day but on the second day it still smells like how it smelt since I washed it what I has never happened before on my previous conditioners.

Aussie do all sorts of other products like more shampoos and conditioners and I have heard they are great so I will be buying more! I have had this product for a month and a half and I have still not finished my first bottle.

I got the product from boots for £3.80 whats so worth it's money!!

The way to long gorgeous hair

Nearly every girl wants long beautiful healthy hair and I am here to tell you how to keep your hair healthy and grow! 

1. Water is your bestfriend. Drinking water will promote healthier scalp and healthier hair. When your body doesn't get enough water, it begins to dry out. So throw away the coca cola and start drinking water as much as possible. It's also good for your body and you will get less bloated. 

2. Take vitamins! The one I use is HalibOrange for teens they are also really good for the brain nails and skin as well as hair. The only down side is that they smell really bad. Also Biotin is meant to be very good but I haven't tried it yet but i know lots of people who have! vitamins will help ensure that your body has the nutrients it needs to produce hair.

3. HEAT! I admit I use heat on my hair on a daily basis but now on weekends and some school days I embrace my natural hair and just go with it. Air dry your hair as much as possible. You can do this by showering/having a bath at night so it air dries over night.  If you have to straighten/curl your hair please remember to put a heat protective product, I use the v05 one whats really good. 

4.  Eating healthy will have a huge impact on hair growth. Your diet affects the nutrients in your body and those nutrients are used to build new hair. If you do not have the proper nutrients, your body cannot build hair as quickly or as strongly. Eat a proper diet with the correct nutrients to promote hair growth.

5. Wash your hair less often. I know that might sound gross but over-washing your hair can make it fragile and prone to breaking. Most dermatologists and stylists agree that washing every day is unnecessary. Three or four times a week should be enough for most people. Also buy a dry shampoo they really help!

6. Don't get regular trims!! Okay there is a bit debate about this one but there is no point getting trims ever month if your hair is not damaged. I would say get a trim everyone 4 - 6 months. Obviously if your hair has bad dead ends then yes go ahead and get a trim but if you are going to the hairdressers every month your hair is just going to get shorter and stay the same length. 

My hair has grown a lot since last year. I have old photos of me about a year and a half ago with my hair.

Thats a year and a half ago (thats snow in my hair btw)

I hoped this post helps you get that lovely long beautiful hair and people with long hair I am so jealous of you!!!

I love all of you and goodbye xo 

Kate Moss lipsticks review ♡

Hello everyone,

Today I am back with another review! I recently watched Zoellas videos on youtube and I saw she really liked the Rimmel London Kate Moss lip sticks so I went out and brought some in boots. They were £5.49 pounds each and I got the shades 20 and 22. One is a pretty bubblegum pink and the other is a ruby red.

I have worn them a lot and what I love the most is they last all day! I went to bed and still woke up with some on my lips. Also they are really thick so you don't need to put on much at a time what helps save it so it doesn't run out that fast. It doesn't take long to dry and it's not sticky like other products I have used in the past.

I do not regret purchasing them at any second and the packaging is really cute whats a bonus. I can only thank Zoella for this buy and we can only thank Kate Moss and Rimmel London for this great product! I will defiantly be buying much more of these lipsticks!

Remember if you like the look of them and great fans of lipsticks like me you can buy them at boots or any drugstore stores :)

Adios x

Gran Canaria 2013!

Hiya everyone,

So I have been on holiday to Gran Canaria for a week so thats why I haven't been updating my blog as much as I should. It was so nice there it was really hot and sunny. We stayed at a place called Vistamar in Porto Rico. Everyone was lovely there. Every night we ate out at many different restaurants around our apartment. Also another good thing was the beach was right opposite us so you can just walk down and go into the sea. At the hotel they  had a nice little pool what was sometimes busy and sometimes not. We were going to do the watersports but we kind of just ran out of time.

I went with my cousin, my sister, mum and uncle and we all just stayed together. I went and got my friends little prezzies like bracelets and sweets and I got myself a baggy top.

Here are some photos from my holiday..
