MESSY HALF BUN

Image
Hi guys!! Lately I have been having a mess around with my hair. I really dislike my hair. It's very thin and has zero volume to it. It's as flat as a nail head. So I have been trying to think of different ways to wear it. I also dislike having my fringe over my face due to how long its gotten. Luckily I'm getting it cut tomorrow!! So I was thinking of different ways I can make my hair appear thicker. I firstky tried back combing it but hated it as it made my hair super notty. I then decided to curl it with my curling wand which I loved. I curled my hair from root to tip. Once it was all curled which roughly took me five minutes, I lightly brushed it through with a paddle brush then, I tipped my head upside down and made it appear scruffy by running my fingers through it. I then grabbed half of my hair and placed it in a bun on top of my head, pulled it out a little bit and made that appear scruffier and tadaaaaaa. My hair looks slightly thicker. Due to curling it,...

GETTING A KITTEN TIPS & ADVICE

Image
Hi guys!  In January of this year we was lucky enough to bring home two beautiful siamese kittens called Luna and Akira. Luna is a chocolate point Siamese and Akira a lilac point.  They were born on the 17th November 2015. When going to view the kittens initially, it was only my brother who wanted one however, Tony and I immediately fell in love with Luna.  She was incredibly calm and just wanted love. Whilst Akira was mischievous and wandering around! When I was a toddler, we owned a cat called Hazel but sadly, she was attacked by a fox so had to be put down.  Luna and Akira are the only cats we have had besides Hazel so, I thought I would give you a few tips and advice which I have learnt along the way. Choosing your kitten You can either get your cat from a breeder or a rescue centre. We opted for a breeder as we knew we wanted Siamese. You want to ensure the breeder you are buying of is gen...

CHESTER ZOO | GIRAFFE EXPERIENCE

Image
Where It All Began! Hi Guys! It was my Nanna's birthday in August so for a gift Tom, Tony and I all put to for a giraffe experience at the Zoo. She absolutely adored it. She was able to feed the giraffes and learn new things about them. One being that Giraffes have a blue tongue. This being because, in Africa they have always got there tongue stuck out eating. When it was pink it would often get sunburnt however, evolution  took over and made it blue so, that it repels the sun and they no longer have sun burnt tongues.  I find that very interesting.  We visited the zoo last week. It was only My Nanna, Grandad and I  as everyone else was working. The zoo isn't to far away from where we live and is called Chester Zoo. It's such an amazing zoo. They are always finding ways to improve the animals habitats and also ways to make the whole day better for those who visit. The animals have very large enclosures and you c...

SOMBRERO TREE | MEXICAN DINNER DATE

Image
Hi guys!  A new Sunday means a new blog.  Yesterday Tony and I went on a trip to the town centre. When we arrived we were super hungry so decided to have a dinner date at one of our favourite Mexican restaurants, Chiquito's. There was beautiful artwork placed on each wall as well as sombreros on each table which obviously, we had to try on! When looking around we also saw sombrero trees!! SOMBRERO TRESS!!! I'm not sure why I got excited over them, but I did. When the waitress showed us to our seat, we were present with a small bowl containing popcorn. It hd a powder on the popcorn but I'm not to sure what it was. I wasn't in the mood for a classic Mexican dish so opted for my usual burger with skin on French fries. I added cheese and onion rings onto my burger as it wasn't to expensive. It was so mouthwatering. Tony tucked in to BBQ chicken with his favourite, sweet potato chips. After our dinner date, we then ventured to the arndale (mall). I was ...

ONE WITH NATURE

Image
Hi guys!  This weekend has been a bank holiday weekend. This means I get to spend more quality time with my family and Tony.  We have had a lovely bank holiday weekend, the sun was shining, the breeze was cool and the smells of barbecues filled the air. Being able to have family time allows us to share lots of laughs and fun memories together.  Something we enjoy to do as a family is go on lovely long walks. Especially through the country side. Being surrounded by nature and the sound of running water is so calming and gives us all the opportunity to wind down and relax. It's also a bit of Internet de tox time, seen as none of us use our phones whilst spending time together. We went on a country side walk to the woods. Being surrounding by happy familys throwing bread to the ducks, seeing the sun shine through the gaps in the trees and, watching dogs play together always brightens up my day.  It fills me with happiness and makes me thankful for all the love and kindn...

SEVENTEEN MEGA MATTE LIPSTICK

Hi Guys! I have recently signed up to the seventeen blogger network. I love being a part of the network as it gives me so many tips and advice. They recently invited me to a blogger event however I sadly couldn't make it. They then went on to very kindly send me two Mega Matte Lipsticks. The colours they sent me are so pretty. If you didn't know, these lipstick have more or less just come out! They sent me 'Back To The Fuchsia' and also 'Violet Summer'. The names are super cool. I don't have a super bright purple or pink matte lipstick so I am certainily in love with these. I'm lipstick mad!!! I have tried them out and they look super cool on. The purple is the easiest to apply although you do need to add a couple of coats to get a good colour pay off. The pink, takes a bit of work to apply however, it is a beautiful colour. I absolutely adore them. The pink is matte through out whilst the purple one is matte however, has a purply, ...
