April Favourites

We are coming to the end of April... and you should all know what that means... a favourites post!!!

SONG

This month I have become a 1D fan. 

I have always liked One Direction but not been overly keen until recently for some unknown reason...this is probably Soph's fault that I'm now a bit obsessed but hey ho a bit of 1D never hurt anyone.

PRODUCT

I have decided to go for the Stila Girl Travel Palette - living the life in laguna as my favourite product because it was a very well spent £10!!

You can see more swatches and photos here

This is so useful for on-the-go makeup. It's all really natural colours which come out well (though you do need to do a little reapplying throughout the day but it's easy to put in your bag as it's so small) and its great that there is a little tutorial picture thing in there too.

This is fab for using at school or on a little day trip out where you want to keep it simple.

MOVIE

After seeing Chicago on broadway I have become a little bit over excited about the movie (even though it was made ages ago). I love the songs, I love Renee Zellweger, the dancing is unbelievable, great story line ahhhhhhhhhh I could go on and on....

ITEM OF CLOTHING

This is just a plain white standard tee (so I didn't bother photographing the whole thing) with a cute kissing fish design. I love it - it's so comfy and you can wear it with anything; jeans, leggings, shorts etc.

RANDOM

After stalking One Direction on youtube I found this video and have watched it about 15 times every day since. It brings a smile to my face (the first clip is by far the best!):

LOVE LOVE LOVE

March faves!!

We are nearing the end of March... so it's time for a favorites post!

SONG

This month I have fallen in love with thins song. I know it came out quite a while ago, but it is extremely fun to dramatically lip-sync to....

PRODUCT

Last week I was looking for something in my bathroom cupboard when I came across this:

I KNOW. I nearly cried. I had completely forgotten that I owned this (I received it as a present a couple of years ago I think....and clearly lost it), it has 77 colours - so so beautiful I have been having tonnes of fun with it.

ITEM OF CLOTHING

If you live in England am sure you're aware that the weather has been very temperamental and disgusting for the most part... EVEN THOUGH IT IS SPRING. It makes me very annoyed.

Anyway, I have got a lot of use out of this Urban Outfitter's scarf consequently.

I love the grey / purple tones, and it is unusually short which is... erm unique? That is it's only downside.

MOVIE

In the lead up to my New York trip I have been trying to watch films set there. My favourite of the one's I've watched over this month, has been "The Devil Wears Prada". It's just a classic and Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway are a match made in heaven.

RANDOM

You are probably aware that it was Mother's Day this month, and when I was in Marks and Spencer's buying my Mum some flowers I bought myself this oh-so-cute pink potted plant (yes I realise it's very odd that a bought a plant for MYSELF from the Mother's Day section...). I have no idea what sort of flower it is, but it's very pretty and is giving me hope that spring is on the way despite the snow which is currently outside my window!!! I do not have a green thumb, but so far so good my plant is still alive... lets hope it stays that way for a while longer!!
