Christmas and New Year๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ…


Me and Abbie are back! Well I am! Sorry I haven't posted in a long time I have been really busy with school and family and just life in general! This post is just about my christmas and something I got and the new year and what I will be trying to achieve:)


Christmas Dayyyyyyy

Christmas was amazing this year I was a very lucky girl and had a great time with my family. We watched movies all day I me and my brother got up at 8:30 yes yes we are older now but still get excited! My presents this year were mostly makeup related fashion related and little things that have little jokes behind them! The one thing I got which I loved and haven't stopped using is my Naked 3 Palette its amazing and I really recommend it, its going to be my next blog post and I will be showing what my favourite colours are and what I wear and how its different to the others. Christmas was filled with food and family and also my Uncles christmas quiz which went on for hours and I didn't even win!

Boxing Dayyyyyy

On boxing day we always go to my dads mom and dad in the afternoon for another christmas dinner which went really quickly this year and was also really strange due to my brother being at work and then on the afternoon we always go to my moms dad and moms for tea which consists of little nibbles as I like to call it and I love it! I think its lovely to spend time with my family as I'm really close to my grandparents and the food that they do is brilliant might I add.

For new years my family never does much we just tend to stop in and play board games and watch the TV ready for the count down.On New Years Day we also go round to my dads mom and dad for another Christmas dinner with the whole family this time and also my brother girlfriend! Now I'm going into  heart felt words of what I'm going to try and make 2014 better then 2013, this year is going to be amazing we are leaving school and get to have our prom which me and Abbie are excited for I went to try dresses on to get an idea of how I want to have it made and its perfect! This year is going to be amazing except the exams but hey lets just get though them and then get excited for prom! Just you wait for the posts about our prom its going to be amazing we will show you our dresses our hair and how we got ready for it and a few pictures that we will take when at the venue! CAN YOU TELL IM EXCITED;)


Sorry for the lack of posts we have been revising and crying over exam results and also been spending time with family and really I have had a blog block if thats what im going to call it... However I didn't now what to blog about but this is just a short post about what Christmas was like and the next few blog posts will be my Eyebrow routine and a Naked Palette Review!

Primark Haul❤





YAY HAUL TIME.......... Well since I have not been shopping in ages me my mom and my grandmar and par just went for a little shop so we just went to primark and trust me I can't just pop in a see whats there I end up coming back with a big bag full of clothes!



Shoes:
So I think that primark do the best shoes ever I mean I love topshop and office shoes but sometimes when fashion keeps going in and out its better to buy cheaper then it is to go and buy expensive so on with the picture.......

£12.00

£12.00

Here are the topshop look a likes these babys where £12 and they are just black leather with a little cuban heel! I think these are the best look a likes for a pair of topshop shoes and im seriously going to be wearing these all autumn!




£12.00

Next I just brought these light brown brogue style shoe as I thought I could wear them with my thick black tights and a big cardigan ready for autumn but I could also wear them with my jeans and a nice simple top with a big knitted cardigan over the top.


Winter Wear.....
So as its winter I thought why not buy a new coat and a scarf and some gloves!? I already have my winter coat from last year which is just a topshop one but I have been admiring the green parka's and I didn't want to pay full price incase they went out of style quick so I just brought one from primark and its lovely! I can't wait to wear it when it snows! Its this dark green/ brown colour with fur around the hood (Don't worry its not real) and inside is a soft fur wool and there is leather trim all around cuffs and the pockets.



£25

£25

The next thing I purchased for school to put over my blazer when it gets cold is just a snood and the matching gloves as we can't wear coats for school so we just have to bundle up! The snood is a chunky cream knit and so are the gloves.
£4.00 Snood

£2.00


I also wanted just a normal scarf that I can wear with my jeans and my cardigans and just my coat so I was seeing on Instagram that everyone was buying these lovely thick tartan scarfs and I instantly fell in love and tartan is very in at the moment so I thought why not... So I brought that and thought I could wear it with my brogues a nice blouse and my jeans. It has a dark blue in the background and is covered with a red and a blue and green the picture really doesn't do it justice!
£4.00




Tops, Cardigans, Trousers and Belts:
So there wasn't much tops or cardigans that I like there so I just brought a few things! First I saw this lovely fluffy baby pink cardigan which looks exactly like one that my mom has from river island but I didn't want to keep wearing my moms so when I saw this I had to get it! It will look lovely with a dress as well and also with my jeans again!



£12.00

And then I just brought this pink and grey blouse as that's what people seem to be wearing at the moment and tucking it in to there jeans and wearing a brown belt and some oxford style shoes so I wanted to get one! The only size they had was an 8 so its a little big for me but I really wanted it! The blouse colour is baby pink and then goes to grey on the shoulders and the arms!




£10.00

I then saw that they had some black legging/ riding trousers and I have been looking for some of these for a long time but again I didn't wan't to pay full price for some! These are just like a black legging type trouser with a quilted pattern buy the pocket!


£6.00

£6.00

And on to the last thing I brought........ So I was looking on H&M for a nice brown and black thin belt and they were out of stock so when I was looking in primark I was trying to find one the exact same but I cam across these belts that were in a set of 2! The black belt has studs along the belt and the brown one is just plain! I thought these would go well with my jeans my brogue style shoes and my blouse tucked in!

£2.00

£2.00


 And thats it that is the end the haul! I hope you liked it and me and Abbie are very sorry that we are slow at putting blogs up we don't seem to have a minute with homework, school and trying to complete coursework! We are going to try and post more OOTD's and an Autumn lookbook?!

My Trip to Cyprus☀

Hello Im back from Cyprus unfortunately I wish I was back in the sun and tanning but no im in my room in England writing my post up while it raining! I want to apologies for my lack of blog posts recently but there should be more coming from me very soon!


So me and my family and my brothers girlfriend booked a holiday ages ago to go Cyprus this year as last year as we didn't have a holiday due to me being in hospital and our friends child being in hospital as well! So we travelled down to Manchester on the 20th and stopped over night as our flight to Cyprus was early hours of the morning I do have a holiday haul which will be uploaded soon on what I brought over there and what I brought in duty free in the airport and we stopped for 10 days in Cyprus which was the 21st-31st and honestly I wish we stopped longer.We stopped at the most beautiful hotel which was called 'Sunrise Beach Hotel' In Protoas.All the staff in the hotel were lovely you had the people that worked in the pool bar the people that worked on reception the managers of different restaurants which were in the hotel also the bar manager that we had a drink with every night he even offered me a job but then I told him I was only 15 and he said come back next year and you will have a job so looks like I will be living in Cyprus for the 6 weeks! Also the entertainers were lovely and we got friendly with them which we are know friends on Facebook!

Strip of the hotel-View from my room

The rooms were lovely in the hotel and really clean and the beds were even comfy?! I mean thats what you want when you are on holiday! nothing like my own bed though! I had to share a room with my brother Ben and his girlfriend Anke I got along with Anke in the room but not Ben put it this way the room was way to messy for my liking! Our hotel room got cleaned everyday and the maids were lovely also.

Our holiday was mainly spent by the pool then on the night going out for something to eat and drinks after! We were allecated our sun beds when we got there and got to pick where we wanted them and honestly we picked the best place for the sun and the view we also had a lovely couple next to us.We were mainly in the pool playing with a volley ball that we brought and we spent many days hitting that around the pool while my brother got angry at me as I wasn't hitting it up I was hitting it down... so..... We also played a real volley ball game with people around the pool with the entertainers where a good looking russian thought he could flirt with me..... he was good looking though^_^.We also went in the sea alot as well but that got busier as the week went on but it was fun when we were in there when we had the rubber ring. We became friends with everyone and we even became friends with people who live in the same village as us that only live down the road and it seems like we have known them for ages.

MR LIZARD came to see us every day 
On the night we went to the restaurant which was right in the hotel with a view of the sea and the sun setting it was lovely you had an excuse to get dressed up also as you had to dress smart to be able to get in.On the last night we went all out we even had a bottle of Moet which I had a little drink of but stuck with my freshly squeezed orange juice which they did fresh every morning in the pool bar and also made some at the bar for the night we also went for Frozen Yogurt at a place called Froo Yoo it was lovely this was on the strip which was just outside the hotel which had different bars and places to eat and little shops!

Honestly it was the best holiday I have ever been on and the staff at the hotel could not do enough for you and we will be going back next year and we are booking next week so that we can go at the same time and maybe next time I  might not be coming back on the plane to England I might be stopping in Cyprus if they offer me that job which I will adore.The hotel was beautiful and the staff again were lovely and I recommend the Sunrise Beach Hotel if you ever take a trip to Cyprus


I would love to know what your favourite place to go on holiday is? Also there will be more holiday related posts off me coming very soon as I have all the time in the world know so more posts regularly!

Thank you for reading
