March Favourites

Most of my beauty March favourites are the same a my February favourites so I thought I might make this post entertainment centered because I have been enjoying some different programmes and apps that I'd like to share with you.

Okay, so first up is my new obsession, Don't Tell The Bride. This programme has been on for a while but recently I have been watching it all the time! I don't know why I love it so much, maybe I just love the idea of a wedding! 

Although this game is super annoying and makes me want to throw my phone at the wall, Flappy Bird is also super addictive! Trying to get past your high score is the aim of the game and, trust me, it looks simple but it's the most difficult, frustrating game ever!

My favourite programme at the moment is definitely One Born Every Minute. It's so lovely to see those little lives being born into the world. It might be enough to put you off of childbirth though!

Last but not least, my favourite book of the month is definitely Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare! I wont tell you too much about it incase you want to read it yourself but after reading the Mortal Instruments I definitely had to read the prequel, the Infernal Devices! I'm halfway through reading it at the moment but is just gets better the more I read! If you're into fantasy books I'd recommend you try this book!

So these are my March Favourites. Let me know what you think! 

See you guys soon!

Weight Loss Wednesday #3

Here's my Weight Loss Wednesday post (although a bit late!). I apologize for being naughty and missing the last WLW, I can explain. I was a very busy girl as I have just started a new job so the diet was put on hold while I settled down and got into a routine. I put on a couple of pounds but in the week that my diet has restarted I have lost some of the weight I gained so I'm getting there!

In my weigh in this morning I have put on 1 1/2 lbs bringing my total weight loss to 1 1/2 lbs.

My focus next week is to cut down my portion size. My new motto it 'little and often'. I think its better to eat snacks or small portions of healthy foods regularly rather than eating three big meals a day. I think that eating like this can make it easier for your body to metabolize the food.

My aim for next week is to try and motivate myself more because although I want to shift this weight badly, there is no motivation for me to stick to my diet when that choccy biscuit is staring at me, calling my name!
So i have decided to dig out some old photos of when I felt at my best. In doing this I am hoping that I will think to myself, "see you can do it!"

Another motivation for my weight loss is definitely my holiday in June. I'm going away with the boyfriend for our first holiday and I want to feel good in a bikini! I really want to buy all of the outfits that I like without thinking, "that will show my flab". So this will defo be a key motivator!

What have you been doing to motivate yourself? Let me know!

See you soon guys!

Jewellery Favourites

I've recently organised all of my jewellery and found some real gems in my collection. Some that I have gained recently through christmas presents and some that I've had a while. I absolutely love wearing jewellery so I'm excited to share them with you! So lets get started...

First up is my sparkly diamond ring from Warren James. I got this from my mum for christmas and I just love it! I wear it everywhere (unless its a gold day!).

Next is my sparkly diamond bracelet from Warren James also (there was a sale on I'm guessing!). My boyfriend, John, got me this beautiful bracelet for my christmas present and I wear it whenever I dress up all fancy (I'm worried I'd break it if I wore it everyday because I am super clumsy!). I love how it sparkles in the light so I'm always showing it off. It also matches the ring my mum got me (I think they planned it!) which is great because I love matching sets. I just need a necklace to match and then I'm sorted!

 So this Swarovski Star bracelet is super special to me because its from my mum on my 18th birthday. The reason this is so special is because when my mum handed it to me she said, "because you're my star" and I got all emotional! This bracelet also sparkles in the light and, if you haven't guessed already, I love sparkly things!

 

This is another one from my mum for christmas. She bought me this Crystal Star necklace to match the Swarovski bracelet so thats another beautiful set in my collection! I love this because when the light shines on the crystal it changes in colour which is so pretty. I can also wear this necklace with a lot of my other jewellery pieces so it gets a lot of use!

These pretty diamond stud earrings are another christmas present from my wonderful boyfriend. I love to wear these as everyday earrings as well as adding a little sparkle when dressing up.

Okay, so this one is super special and although it don't wear it a lot (because I'm so afraid of breaking it), this pearl necklace is definitely my favourite because it was my nan's. My nan gave it to my other nan before she passed away when I was too young to remember. My other nan recently gave me this necklace and I am so grateful that I can something of my nans and I will look after it forever.


Liked any of my jewellery? Have favourites in your collection?

See you soon guys!

February Favourites

I thought I'd do my first Favourites post! So here are some of my February 2014 Favourites.

Okay, first up is my absolute favourite perfume ever! My boyfriend bought me Flash by Jimmy Choo for christmas and for the last month or so I have been so obsessed that I have had to make myself slow down on my usage. It smells classy and I think thats what I like about it.
I have had many comments from friends and family saying that I smell nice when wearing this perfume so it's defo my new favourite.

On top of my foundation I like to use a powder that stays on for long and stops my face being so shiny. I love Maybelline 24 hour stay and I use it all the time. It's defo the best powder I've tried so far.

Nivea Express Hydration Primer is a great base for your foundation. It absorbs quickly which is good for me because I have very oily skin. Its a great new find!

My favourite mascara this February and always is Maybelline Rocket Volume Express. I love using this mascara because it gives me smooth lashes with no lumps. I'm defo going to be using this for a while unless you guys have any suggestions.

I bought Collection 2000 Colour Pout Lasting Lip Stain on a whim and found that I absolutely love it. It's great if you hate topping up on your lippy and hate finding red smudges everywhere. Once its on its on for the whole day and its exactly what I need. It's great for that pop of colour in your outfit.

So my other favourite lip product is Rimmel London Stay Glossy. This lip gloss is great on its own as it has a lovely pink colour and shine that stays for a long time, or on top of a lip stain to make the lip stain look shinier and more like lipstick but without the worry of it rubbing off. It's defo my favourite lip gloss.

 Now onto nail products. My favourite brand is definitely Barry M because of its smooth finish. The Base coat, Top coat and Nail hardener is great for clumsy people like me who always chip their nails as soon as they are painted! The gold glitter nail varnish has to be my favourite because it makes me feel glam and sparkly. I love it!

And last but not least, my favourite entertainment of the month is definitely Les Miserables! I'm obsessed with the film and on valentines day my wonderful boyfriend took me to see it in theatre and it blew my mind! We were both in tears (though my boyfriend would never admit that!) and the standing ovation at the end was absolutely deserved. 

Have you tried anything new this month? Do you recommend any beauty products or films that I should check out? 

These are just my opinion and I have not been asked to endorse any of these products by any companies.

See you soon guys!
