The Liebster Award!!

Okay, so I was nominated to do the Liebster Award Tag by Nicole!

I definitely had no clue what it was until I read her blog post so clearly I'm so in the loop right now you guys..

Thanks for the nomination! if you're reading this then please check out her blog as she is one of my favourite girls and she always posts a good read!

The Liebster Award is a great way for bloggers to connect with each other and for the slightly smaller blogs to get that little bit of recognition.

Okay, so here are the rules:

1. Thank and link the person who nominated you.

2. Answer the nominators 11 questions. 3. Nominate small blogs with less 200 followers. Someone who you believe deserves this award and include their link in your post.

4. Create 11 new questions for your nominees to answer.

5. Notify your nominees via their blog/social media.

My questions from Nicole are:

1. Who is your favourite youtuber?

I actually watch so much YouTube, it's unreal. I definitely watch it more than regular TV.. Usually I can be found watching videos from Zoella, Alfie, Joe, Colleen, Rachel, Miranda, Josh.. The list goes on to be honest. I don't think I have a number one favourite that I HAVE to watch as soon as a new video is uploaded but I definitely have to be caught up with all of my regulars!

2. Kendall or Kylie?

Ooh tricky! I love them both because they're both so fab. I mean maybe Kendall because if I could have her figure and natural beauty then I would be set! But kylie though.. That style she's got going on.. And that brow game, giiirll teach me.

3. What is your all time favourite book? What's a book?

Haha! No, I've never really been a big reader to be honest! I can probably read a book for about 4 days in free time and then I'll forget all about it or not bother.

4. Favourite Disney character?

Minnie. She has all the sass. Definitely got a bit nervous meeting her this year at Disneyland haha shh stop laughing!

5. Would you rather stay in the same outfit for the rest of your life (you can wash it btw) or never wear makeup again?

I'm going to break the rules a little and imagine that I could accessorise the outfit however I wanted to change it up a bit every day? And if I went for the no makeup that I'd be given all the best products to make me look flawless without it? Um.. I'd say I'd stay in the same outfit. Dress it up or down, change the makeup and hair to suit each occasion and I'll be fine!

6. Which Hogwarts house would you be in?

Probably one of the least talked about ones or less popular because that's just me all over! I've been thinking about it too long now and none of the names are making sense!

7. What is your "must have" summer item?

A pair of sunnies of course! I don't know what it is about sunglasses that makes you feel kind of powerful and untouchable. It's not just me that thinks that, is it?

8. Do you think you'd make a good pirate?

Hell no! I'd like to think I'd fit in and be accepted but in reality, I'll probably get sea sick and fall off the boat.

9. Reach out to your left what is the first thing you grab?

So I'm lying in bed writing this in pitch black darkness. I did what you told me to do and hit the fan on my bedside table. Thanks Nicole!

10. If you could be anyone for the day who would you be?

Another tricky one! Someone with a high profile so I could experience what they have to go through on a daily basis. Someone that radiates that aura and presence of a modern day God. Beyoncé. I would be Beyoncé.

11. If you could be one place in the world right now where would you be and why?

Okay. I would chose to be in LA. I've never been and I have ALWAYS wanted to go so so badly! Somebody please take me?? :(

I'm going to be completely honest and say I don't have anyone to nominate properly because I'm more of a youtuber then a blog writer so it's difficult for me to do so.

SO anyone that reads this, yes YOU..

Please feel free to accept this nomination and answer these questions, from me to you:

1. How long does it take you to get ready in the morning?

2. Shower or bath?

3. If you could only drink tea or coffee for the rest of your life, what one would you choose?

4. Favourite ice-cream flavour?

5. Guilty pleasure TV? Be honest!

6. What colour is your room?

7. McDonald's or Burger King?

8. Have you ever participated in any sports? Been on a team?

9. What are you afraid of?

10. What is your favourite holiday?

11. Have you ever googled your name?

There we go guys! If you're still here reading, let me know what you thought of my answers and don't forget to head over to my YouTube and subscribe for videos by yours truly x

Lush bath time!

I'm currently laying in my Golden Egg - Lush bath and I'm absolutely loving it.

The smell of honey and toffee is so warming and I can feel the cocoa butter soothing my skin as I type!

I must say, I do feel as though this is more of an Autumn/bonfire night smell than a Spring/Easter smell but I can't complain!

The fact that this one is a mixture of bath bomb and bath melt is amazing as you get a small amount of bubbles but not too much and they gradually melt anyway! Then you're left with the golden coloured water (a kind of yellowy/green) and a subtle shimmer of gold glitter through it!

As you can see from the photo, there is a lot of cocoa butter packed into this little egg!

I would love to be one of those girls that had a full beauty routine and stuck to it but I'm not. Sometimes I forget to moisturise and sometimes I just can't be bothered. So these lush products with cocoa butter in them are a nice little treat!

Honestly you guys, I have a layer of smoothness right now!

I only knew about this product this year so I don't know where I was last year when it was released?! Under a rock??

So how have your Easter breaks been? How much chocolate have you eaten??

I'm still working my way through all mine so I haven't started my detox yet..

Till next time you bunch of beauties x

The British Tag!

Hi there ol' buddy ol' pal, ol' chums!

So today I've decided to do The British Tag!

I've been reading tag posts on blogs and watching them on YouTube recently and could not settle on which one I wanted to do. After much deliberation, I've come to the conclusion that I'm definitely British and this one needs to be done.

So let's not waste any time..

1. How many cups of tea do you have a day? And how many sugars?

I LOVE TEA. I'm so happy that I am proudly a Brit that loves a good cuppa!

I'd say I probably have 3-4 cups of tea a day on average? More likely in winter or when it's cold in general! I used to have two sugars all the time from when I first ever tried tea. Then I cut to one, then none for AGES! Recently I have been having one sugar for that extra bit of energy and comfort.

2. Favourite part of your roast?

To be honest I'm neither here nor there with a roast. We don't have it every Sunday. Probably once or twice a month? Although I could easily go without a roast ever again, I'd have to say it's a toss up between Yorkshire puddings and crispy potatoes!

3. Favourite dunking biscuit?

Let's be real here. If you don't like dunking biscuits in tea, you're not really a full on Brit. I'm a HUGE lover of chocolate digestives dunked in tea. But if there are custard creams available.. THEY'RE MINE!!

4. Favourite quintessential British pastime?

Oooohhh! Picnics in the park is quite high up there. Or just drinking tea and complaining about the weather..

5. Favourite word?

Beautiful. I tend to say the word beautiful quite a lot. Whether I'm being genuine or sarcastic, everything is beautiful.

6. Cockney rhyme slang?

Orite me ol' China plate? Been a long time since I saw your boat race. Fancy a cuppa Rosy Lee?

7. Favourite Sweet?

I'm more of a chocolate than a sweets girl but if I had to pick one I think it would have to be strawberry laces! Yummmm!

8. What would your pub be called?

GET-OUTTA-MY

If you're British, you'll understand..

9. Number one British person?

I left this question till last because I need a long time to think to be honest.

I'm just going to have to say Simon Cowell. What a guy. Responsible for making so many dreams become a reality!

10. Favourite shop/ restaurant?

PRIMARK. I'm literally in love with their home range so that's an obvious one. I also need to visit the TK MAXX stores that are called HomeSense!

Restaurant? I don't really eat out much really but when I do, I do like a Nandos.

11. What British songs pops into your head?

I don't know why because I haven't heard it for so so long but I randomly got Jessie J- Do It Like A Dude..

12. Marmite?

I don't love it or hate it? I just enjoy it. You have to get the ratio right though!

Okay so that's it!

I actually really enjoyed answering those questions so be prepared for more tag posts haha!

I may do some tags as videos on my YouTube soon so make sure you're subscribed and ready for them!

While you're there, don't forget to like and comment on my recent videos and share them with your friends if you like them.

I'm tagging everyone that reads this post!

Byeeeee x

I live for a lazy Sunday!

When I know I have a Sunday off work, I'm instantly dreaming of that beautiful lay in, waking up when I want with no alarm set.. A cup of tea in bed as I check Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube and emails. Then lounge around all day in joggers with no intention of doing anything productive.

This Sunday however, did start off that way but after going out for crépes with my mum which was so so lovely! We both had a giant milk chocolate and banana one and a mocha.. Check out this beautiful creation!

I started manically spring cleaning my bedroom and ended up throwing away bags and bags of things I didn't need, use or were broken and pointless. I also rotated my wardrobe to pull all my spring/summer clothes in and put most winter clothes away into the loft!

I'm not even finished yet! Now I've started this mission, I'm determined to get my room looking spotless and neat freak acceptable. On my next day off..

Lavand - #CarnabySS15 event!

You may or may not have heard of a company called Lavand.

They have clothing stores in Spain! Carnaby Street in London also have a small store and yesterday was the launch of their spring/summer collection!

They held an event in store to celebrate with snacks and Buck's Fizz while you got to check out the new season stock.

The focus on dusky, muted colours really stood out to me and I was enjoying the spring feel with the pastels creeping back in!

I didn't get to stay very long as I had to rush off but I have to say that as a new discovery to me, I was impressed with quite a few little items!

And although it's not really high street prices, it's worth a look to see what grabs your eye!

Here are some of the ways to find them online if you want to check out the new collection:

I tried to vlog today as promised but it turned out to be a lot more of a rushing around kind of day than we expected!

Think that's all for this morning's blog. Time to drag myself out of bed and make a cup of tea!! X

Alfie's delivery from www.petshop.co.uk!!

The lovely people at www.petshop.co.uk sent Alfie some tasty treats to try!

Inside was some dry dog food from Huntland. A natural, grain free mix which is so so healthy for the little companion in your life!

Alfie usually only eats dry food with a bit of cheese or ham mixed in and not really any wet dog food, unless he's been unwell or to the vet. So this should go down well!

The next thing in the box was some wet food. This one is from Nature Diet and is the vegetables and rice flavour! What is impressive about this food is that it is 100% gluten free!

Again, this one is for older dogs as Alfie is now 10 years old so this one will be best for him. He has to go to the vet early next month so this will come in very handy!

Lastly, the box contained a bag of Wagg treats!  Alfie can be quite fussy with his treats if he's not used to them so these will need a few tries before he decides if he likes them or not!

With all this goodness inside, I'm definitely going to keep trying them with him.

I'm hugely impressed with this parcel and I'd like to say a BIG thankyou to Amy at www.petshop.co.uk for helping us out and carefully selecting these fantastic goodies just for Alfie!

Check out my YouTube channel for the unboxing video and see the reactions from Alfie himself.. The cheeky pooch.

It's nearly Mother's Day!

Mother's Day is just around the corner and I'm usually so so late on deciding what to buy my mum!

Last month I happened to walk passed The Card Factory and noticed some really cute little add-on gifts that I literally HAD to pick up!

This little hanging wall plaque is really cute and I think my mum will love it!

Also this beautiful linked photo frame which is from the same range!

She's always on about getting some photos on the walls so here's a little helping hand.

As usual, I haven't yet bought the main present.. Shock, I know!

But here's a little list of the things I've been thinking of! (And lusting over for myself! I can borrow, right??):

1, HAS to be the Magnitone Eclipse!

Oh. My. God. Forget going OUT to a spa for a facial when you can relax in your own home and pamper yourself! This little gem promises good things to your skin and don't we all want a glowing, youthful complexion?? Retailing at £170, this is one to save for but as you are the best child your mum could ever wish for, you've already saved haven't you..

2, Along the same lines of beauty, I'm thinking of splashing out on a whole new makeup bag full of goodies! I have the Urban Decay Naked Skin foundation and it's the best one I've ever tried! The coverage is so good and they will match the colour to your skin tone free of charge if you go to a counter. At £27, it's very tempting! 

3, A girl can never have too many shoes. This is a fact! Maybe a pricey pair of heels would do nicely? I mean we are the same size after all... Time to get looking!

Guys, help me out! What can I buy for Mother's Day?? It's so soon.
