The uk can be such a beautiful city if you give it a chance, I know I have been to some beautiful cities and loved it there - and more people should go to them too! Not many places are looked to see their beauty but it’s there and I love seeing it - the way they decorate the city and what’s in it.

 Nothings better then getting the train on a nice sunny day to a new city centre, going shopping and doing things that city offers - I love doing it and I can’t wait to carry on in the summer. It helps me explore so much.

I’m going to start with the most local one, York. The city of the Vikings (and extremely pretty shops). This is such a lovely big city that I’ve been to a few times and had lovely days out. the city centre is gorgeous and full of shops and lovely places - especially the stone streets! It’s also got a lot of historical sights and place to visit too. I love the city itself I think it’s beautiful and I lovely place to be.

 Next is quite the opposite - a seaside city! Not many people know about is withernsea. My nans had a caravan there and all though my childhood and even teenager years I’ve visited here atleast 2-3 times a year and I love it - feel like I know it like the back of my hand. It’s such a lovely, small closed place I enjoy going to and I think more people should give it a weekend trip to.

 Harrogate is such a lovely city. It’s where my auntie lives so I’ve been going a lot and I’m loving it, I feel like there’s so much character - there’s little independent stores that surround the city making it so enjoyable to discover and less high retail stores, it’s full of outdoors places to visit and gardens so it’s the perfect summer city to do and see, experience for all its beauty. I enjoy spending days there and finding new things to do and see - they’re so many of them!!

 Going to finish this with the classic, the capital city - London. I couldn’t not include how amazing this city is. I am in love with it and if I could I’d live there. There’s so much to do, to see and just embrace in the city itself the possibilities are endless and I don’t think I even need to say anything about it.

 There are so many more places I wanna visit in the uk, these are just some of my favourites! I would love to explore my own country more on city breaks and going to see the beauty they hold! I hopefully will in 2019 and be able to share more with you

 There’s no avoiding how hard it is to get out of a blogging slump. We’ve all had them and they’re one of the worst things when blogging is such an enjoyable hobbie yet when you’re in a place where you don’t want to do it is so sad.

 This happens to everyone though - sometimes they last a day, a week or even a month and getting out of them seems impossible when you don’t even know how you got in them. I know I struggle so much as not wanting to blog hurts so I want to do as much as I can to help people get out them as well.


 It’s so important to not force yourself to write as when you don’t enjoy writing yet you force yourself to do it the posts are not enjoyable. I know you can tell in a post if there is no passion, but just knowing I didn’t wanna write that makes me feel as if I’ve faked it and I hate it. Blogging is all about enjoying it and doing it because you want to so forcing yourself to write causes the real reason of blogging to go.

Knowing this puts me off even thinking about writing so I do wait until I want to. I find if you don’t wanna write, try planning posts. For me knowing what I’m going to write motivates me and makes me want to write as I can see the posts direction and what it’ll be about, I get so excited. This makes me want to write the posts then and nearly every time it works. I think knowing what you’re writing gives you that motivation in itself as you know what you’re doing Blogging isn’t all about the writing. I can get motivation by taking some pretty flatlays, thinking of new goals or just reading other people’s posts.

 Anything blogging related can help lift the slump and it’s so refreshing just wanting to do it again after. I find planning photos to be so fun as the pretty flatlays makes me want to write posts to share with people so I end up wanting to blog and gaining my motivation in a backwards way. I always plan too so it helps this process.

 I hate these slumps as much as everyone does! Trying to get out them is so hard but I’m so glad once they’re gone because being excited to blog is amazing and so rewarding I love doing it more then anything. It’s best that get back in the swing, but I hope my tips help that was it’s not fun at all but so relieving when you’re out of it.

 Its 2019 and I’m pretty sure everyone knows what Netflix is and completely love it. It’s full of amazing shows and films but as well as adding ones on, Netflix make there own. My past posts on Netflix are some of my most views posts, so I’m pretty sure this will be helpful.

 Sometimes Netflix originals never get the credit they deserve, and they’re some good films that deserve soooo much more hype! I have had so many nights in watching Netflix originals and they’ve blown me away yet I’ve heard no one talk about them.


 I’m going to start with a show we all know and love (and want season 3 to come back ASAP) stranger things! It’s such an amazing show - the acting and storyline blew me away. I watched this as soon as it was realised and I was hooked - made me so happy seeing how much love and attention it got because it’s the most amazing storyline and characters.

 13 reasons why is extremely controversial - the story has a lot of meaning and it has some hard hitting subjects. Personally I liked how they showed it and I enjoyed the story as it got a strong message across but it’s very graphic and you need to be warned. I think it’s something there to raise awareness and i enjoyed watching it.

 I’m pretty sure everyone’s heard of orange is the new black now and this has the most explosive storylines I’ve ever seen. They’re so new and creative I love how the actresses all portray it in an amazing way. The show makes me laugh, cry and feel emotions so extremely when watching as the acting is just out of this world. I think it’s got amazing storyline and characters I think everyone should watch it.

 Unbreakable is a show I haven’t heard much of but I loved watching it. The story is based off something true but has some really different individual characters in but it makes the show so original as I’ve never seen storylines like it. I think it’s so funny I couldn’t stop laughing whilst I was watching it. It’s such a good way to uplift spirits.

 You me her is a strange one. I don’t think it’ll be to many people’s tastes but I liked it as it’s different and the plot Is quite odd but I think it’s worth giving a chance. I like how the characters all have originality and we get answers to what we’re thinking. Its a good watch as it goes though more then we think. I really enjoyed it.

 In the 80’s/90’s there was full house, now Netflix has brought it back as fuller house. Honestly I love the reboot as it’s all the original cast and it’s them grown up with their family, solving problems that are modern day and having fun I just love how they’ve brought it back like this and how everything fits together in the same set, characters are more they’ve just expanded upon.

 The let down is so raw. This is such an amazing show that shows the struggles of being a new mum and how everything isn’t okay and perfect, we see Audrey struggle to come to grips and how her life completely changes as she does too with going into a local parenting group. I think seeing her struggle is an amazing example to mums how it really is and I think it deserves so much more hype. Another odd one yet I love this so much.

 Santa clarita diet is amazing. The storyline is so different yet it’s so funny and I love the cast. I think everyone needs to watch this, it’s so hooking and exciting to watch. I love the originality the show brings to Netflix and how it gets the love it deserves , I can’t wait for season 3 to be released!

 Last but not least, I couldn’t not include jack Whitehall travels with my father is one of the funniest things I’ve ever watched. Seeing him travel the world with his dad is so funny yet educational at the same time - seeing them together yet showing their differences is so funny put together as they’re so good together. I think it’ll crack anyone up who watches it

 I’m in love with everything I’ve recommended and I’m sure in the next year Netflix will realise some more amazing shows and movies! If there are any you guys love, share them with me so I can watch them!

 Skirts are some of my favourite things to wear - especially denim ones as they’re probably the easiest fashion piece that’s not jeans as makes it look like you’re dressier as it’s a really feminine pretty touch to an outfit.

Personally I know when I first started wearing skirts I struggled to find what to wear with them - I didn’t know the best way to style them but it’s so much easier then I expected. There’s so much you can do with them.


The first decision is tights or no tights. This tends to depend on the weather as fights make the skirts better for the autumn / winter but in the summer you can wear none and show your bare legs which I prefer. I love how this little detail can adapt the skirt to any season so you can wear denim skirts all year around.

 As well, denim skirts come in so many colours. I have a blue and a black but you can get all sorts - red, pink, mustard, you name the colour and I think they’ll be a denim skirt in it. I love how this means you can express your style and originality as you can get every colour or stick to the basics like me, but soon I may invest in some colours as I’ve seen how much I wear my blue and black

 For a casual look with denim skirt, you can’t go wrong with a t-shirt! I have lots of them and you can easily throw them on with a t-shirt like a plain one makes it a simple outfit but a logo t-shirt or slogan can dress it up just that little bit more. The top you wear has endless choices as denim skirts go with everything

 To be more dressy you can add a shirt, Cami or a blouse, maybe some print or pops of colours to add more to it. This can be tucked in or left out depending how you like even half and half if you’re extra or tied.

This all adds to how you can dress it up and it looks amazing. I think you can do so much with a denim skirt as they’re such staple pieces in your wardrobe that I know I wouldn’t live without mine. These are just afew ideas but there’s so much more you can do. The opportunities are endless and it really can just make an outfit

 When it comes to makeup it’s all about quality. We need the best quality in the product you can get and this can be hard at an affordable price. In a dream world makeup would all be affordable but it’s sadly not like that.

 Finding gems in the drugstore is hard - getting them amazing products at such affordable prices is a mission but when you find them or are recommended them it’s so worth it. It’s taken me so long to find my staple products with a lot of trial and error but I’m very happy with what I’ve found.


 I’m going to go in order of what I’d put on my face and start with foundation. The drugstore foundation i love is the L’Oréal infallible foundation. This is such an amazing high coverage foundation which lasts all day and looks perfect on my skin. It works so well for me and I have got all my friends onto it them love it.

 For concealer I honestly can’t choose one. I have to include both The Collection lasting perfection concealer & makeup revolution conceal and define. There’re the best drugstore concealers you can find - they have such high coverage and last all day an such an affordable price of £4.19 & £4. These are all I use and I don’t think I could use anything different.

 For face, I’m not a blush person and I just stick with my sleek blush in rose gold. This is such a 2015 classic and everyone raved about this - I just still feel the same. The blush is an amazing soft rose shade with a slight gold glitter that doesn’t show. I love how it looks as it compliments my pale skin so well so it suits me and for £5 you can’t go wrong.

 For eyebrows, I’ve never heard anyone talk about this, but it’s my favourite product. The nyx brow pomade is amazing! It lasts, it’s such a good thick pigmented formula which is only £5. It’s a steal and I’ve had mine way over a year so I’ve lots of product left in it. I think it’s such an affordable hidden gem in the drugstore more people need to try.

 This ones quite hard to get in the UK, but the colourpop eyeshadows are so amazing. The super shock shadows have the best pigment I’ve never seen with a half wet texture that are so sparkly and creamy. I wish I could get ahold of them more, because they’re out of this world and I love using them so much.

 Onto lips, I am turning back to a lipstick girl and my favourite drugstore lipstick I’ve came across is the soph x revolution lipstick in the shade ‘fudge’. This has a more satin lipstick and is a perfect nude, it’s so comfortable on the lips and lasts so well - to make this all better its only £4! You can’t go wrong with this, it’s amazing.

 I know they’re so many more gems I haven’t tried but I’m always looking! These are my favourites and hopefully a part 2 of this post can come, I’d love to find more! Nothing is better then an amazing product at an affordable price.

 Skincare is so tricky to get. I know how begrudged I am to spending money on something that I’m not even sure will work on my skin. I’m always so unsure wether to invest in case it’s doesn’t work with my skin or I don’t like it.

 This does happen and it will but sometimes it’s worked really well for me and I’m glad. I’ve realised some products are worth the splurge and I wanted to share them, because they deserve the hype they have and they have worked miracles for me.

 I’m going to start with my longest standing skincare product, the Liz Earle cleanse and polish. This is a cult product for so many People now and it’s so gentle soft and natural for your skin and will leave it looking and feeling fresh. It’s amazing at removing makeup and just cleansing too, I use it so much! It’s worth the splurge as it lasts so long.

 Another product I think is worth the splurge is the glamglow supermud clearing treatment. This is my saving grace for breakouts - I got it for Christmas and use it when my skin is at it’s worse as it helps calm it down and eventually clear it as it’s such a good quality product. Having problematic skin this has helped me so much and I think anyone on this situation should consider investing for this.

 Cleansing oils are a game changer. I got the Clinique take the day off balm and taking my makeup off have never been so easy. The oil melts away my makeup and leaves my skin feeling soft, hydrated and cleansed at the same time. The texture helps my skin in so many ways and the best part is you need the smallest amount as it melts and spreads quick - so it lasts forever!

 I’d love some recommendations from you guys what to splurge on! I love trying new products and these are what I think everyone should try and they’re worth the splurge! These are some of my personal favourites, think I could go on forever!
