Sam Smith Tour - March 2015

Two weeks ago today my Mum and I with two other family friends went to see Sam Smith and he was incredible. For an extra little blog post I thought I would share some of the photos I took while I was there, enjoy!

I thoroughly enjoyed myself and would highly recommend going to see Sam if he is coming to your city soon! He is a beautiful singer who in my opinion sounds even better live:) Thank you Sam for a wonderful night

My Favourite Fashion Items From High Street Stores - Spring 2015

Recently I have found myself starting to get more and more into fashion and clothing. In the past you would always see me in a t-shirt and jeans but now I am more into this whole fashion thing. For this weeks post since I have been seeing a lot of gorgeous clothing in store windows lately, I thought I would show the fashion pieces that I wish were in my wardrobe from the high street. Here are the items that have caught my eye recently:

The first two things that I love would look beautiful worn together or worn with different outfits. Although I have never owned a midi skirt this black and grey printed one would be perfect for a special occasion or event. It can be found here. The black crop top is also a staple piece that can be worn with jeans, shorts, skirts and pretty much any piece! Most high street stores sell plain black crop tops but the one shown is from Topshop and can be found here.

 I have been loving monochrome outfits lately so I guess that's why this black and white top with a grid print caught my eye. Paired with either black, white or blue denim jeans your outfit will look smart and chic but in reality, it is so simple. It can be found here.

Since spring and summer are right around the corner this cute floral playsuit would be the perfect outfit to keep cool as well as looking fabulous! The floral print is also perfect for any festivals coming up and I love how the lace gives it a slightly bohemian feel. Buy it here.

The last item that has caught my eye is this necklace set from Urban Outfitters. I am loving the layered necklace trend and these necklaces are simple but truly beautiful. The dainty shapes and chains would give a touch of elegance to many outfits. They can be found here

Birthday Haul

Since in February it was my birthday, as promised in my last post here's what I gratefully received:

Here are some of the makeup products I received. My brother bought me the Shu Uemura eyelash curler and it is hands down the best eye curler I have ever tried. My eyelashes stay long and curled all day! Thank you Bro.

With a MAC gift card given to me by my friends I picked up the clear Brow Set and so far I am seriously impressed. It keeps my brows in place without them feeling crunchy.

One of my other friends was kind enough to buy me the Nars Laguna bronzer. I wasn't too sure if this would suit my skin tone as I have a very pale complexion and thought this would be too dark, but boy oh boy was I wrong! This bronzer brings warmth to my skin and is great for contouring as it has a matte finish. 

With a Debenhams gift card I also picked up the original Naked Basics palette. I picked it up as it has all the shadows I would need if I was travelling. It also is just full of beautiful natural shadows that I can use on a day-to-day basis.

My parents bought me a couples items from Zoella Beauty which I have been loving. The Soak Opera shower gel is a beautiful smelling body wash and comes in a large container so should hopefully last me a long time! The makeup bag is the cutest thing and I shall be taking it with me if I am ever travelling.

Two other friends also gave me a makeup bag and this handy little nail set! The makeup bag could also be used as a purse or clutch which I think is great and the nail set is full of goodies to keep your nails in tip top condition.

Thank you for reading and thank you to everyone who bought me a present or said happy birthday, I am very lucky to be surrounded by such amazing people.
