Naked 2 Basics Palette

I seem to be going on a mad one recently with make up items. I received a few items for Christmas and am now slowly wanting to write about each one after using them for the last month. The excitement I felt when I received this as a present during the festive season was probably a little too much. My family didn't understand why I got so excited over eye shadow but you guys get it right... Its an Urban Decay Naked Palette need I say more. What I love about the basics palette is that its the perfect size to just put in your handbag and take with you wherever you need to venture too.

I Take My Hat Off To Ya

For a long time I used to be so scared of even attempting to wear any form of a hat. But now try and stop me. The ultimate reason for me wearing a hat is on a bad hair day which I seem to be experiencing a lot lately. My hair is just pissing me off currently, I haven't had a good hair day in forever. I swear it's only the last couple of years where hats have exploded onto the scene. I mean

The Blogger Programme Tote Bag

I'm still very much a newbie to blogging. Having only have really been involved with my blog the last year I feel like I am still very much at the start of what I hope is a long journey. I have learnt and still am learning about lots of aspects of it. I joined the Blogger Programme a few months ago and have lately been learning my way around the site. I don't know why but it takes me so long to grasp things, I'm not exactly the quickest learner. Recently I saw that they were sending out

TNA Wrestling London

 

I know this isn't probably going to be of interest to most people visiting this ol' blog. Fun fact about me I'm a huge professional wrestling fan. Now when I say this to people I usually get two reactions, the first being a look of what the hell and the second people ask why??. I can't explain why I love it but I just do. From watching it on TV and seeing small promotion shows around the UK when I was

Crosswires by MAC

 

Another MAC Lipstick added to my collection. I received this as a gift for Christmas (thanks to my sister) but wanted to give myself time to try it out before I write about it. Now I am still very much a newbie to testing out lipstick colours so I still mainly wear nude colours. However I ventured out a little bit with this shade. Crosswires is from the Cremesheen range and is a vibrant pink coral colour.

Wearing Your Boyfriend's Shirt

 

Shirt- New Look

Jeans- Topshop

Coat- New Look

Shoes- Primark

Bag- New Look

I've found lately I'm back into wearing shirts. This particularly blue and white striped shirt I fell in love with whilst in New Look when I was back at home during the Christmas break. I immediately thought it was like wearing your 'boyfriend's' shirt (hypothetically speaking). Just for the record I am

Sometimes You Need A Break

Being in third year of uni is hard! I can't sugar coat as there is so much to do in so little time. I feel like there is an ever growing list of assignments to complete and I finish in June. The toll of stress is definitely taking its toll on me. My sleeping pattern is completely ruined which is unlike me, my eating got ridiculous last term (although I'm working on that currently) and I'm breaking out constantly on my face. However I knew it was going be a challenge so I can't be too surprised. I guess I wish I had or perhaps need a bit of a wake up call.
I'm starting to realise though that I definitely need to make sure I take breaks. I stress myself about so many things that its taking it toll on me. Today was the perfect example. So I'm in my room trying to write words for my dissertation and literally nothing is happening. Not one drop of inspiration. I could feel myself getting so worked up I was on the verge of crying. My friend messaged me and said would I like to go out for a walk around Greenwich. And you know what, it was the best thing.  Walking around Greenwich was what I needed as it cleared my head and just allowed me to spend some time outside soaking up my surroundings. Greenwich park and the area in general to me just has such positive vibes. I always feel happy going there and I could see me potentially living there in the future *dream on*.

I have to somehow find the balance between being on top of my work and having breaks so I don't go crazy. Third year you are proving to be a bit of a bitch at times.
