Couple of recent spring photos :)
I got this headband from Primark last year, i think it's perfect for sunny days! Love it :)
I got this top last year, i actually can't remember where it was from (it doesn't say on the label) think it was River Island but not 100% sure! I do love it though but i've not properly wore it out and about yet because i want some high waisted jeans go with it and haven't got around to buying any yetttt!
So once again i was looking at Lasula on instagram (obsessed with some of the stuff from there and i haven't even had the chance buy any yet!!) and they've got a few gorgeous floral dresses which i want! I never normally wear this pattern a lot but for some reason it's really grown on me lately and i want some for summer!
This one is my absolute fave! *-* gorgeous!! It's only £20 too, bargainnn!
Will hopefully be buying it soon and posting a pic!

Over the easter holidays i went 'glamping' for the first time in York at a place called The Little Hide, we stayed in this lil wooden pod and it was awesome, i loved it! The area was lovely and the site that we stayed on is soo nice, i wanna go again! It's the best idea for a romantic getaway, i wanna go back when it's summer for a long weekend! :)
It's very basic inside, there's not tv or anything so it's perfect if you wanna spend some quality time with someone.
I paid £45 for the night, and it was totally worth it!
So if you're like me, and aren't a huge fan on spending the night in a tent, this is a good alternative :p :D

These are from Lasula, i saw them on instagram and i think they're gorge! I'm seriously gonna have no money left when i next get paid with all these different clothes that i want :/ haha
I've been looking through boohoo.com and i've seen these two tops i want, they're so cute for summer / spring, need to buy these!!
I'm not sure whether to get the cream or black colour in this, i'm thinking cream! What do you guys prefer??
Love love love this, it's so pretty & love the floral pattern :)
I was looking on instagram and came across these jeans and i think they're gorge! I've been wanting some high waisted jeans for agesss, just a bit scared about wearing white because i'm soo clumsy and always drop food down me :/ haha. They're from a website called Lasula and they're only £22, so i'm deffo gonna buy a pair when i've got some spare money! Gonna pair it up with a nice crop top :) Love summer outfits!
Hey guys, i was looking for a new oil product for my hair to help hydrate it because the ends always look dry! I don't know if i notice it more because my hair's lighter on the ends but it's really bugging me! So i've been looking around and saw this coconut water in Body care. It had a few different options of the Natural World products and i've never come across it before, there was an argan oil one, a keratin one and the coconut water one. They all actually looked quite good and i do want to try them all eventually, but for now i went for the coconut water simply because i love the smell!
It comes in a 100ml bottle, it's quite small but a little does go a long way. There's a few different uses for it like putting it on before you shampoo (which is what i do, i try to leave it on for as long as possible before i go in the bath) which always makes my hair feel nice and soft, you can mix it with your conditioner (i'm a bit iffy about this in case it makes my hair go greasy!) or you can use it after you've done your hair to smooth it out, but let me just warn you, it does make your hair go greasy if you use too much! So i just apply a couple of drops if i'm using it after i've straightened my hair.
It was either £2.99 or £3.99 (sorry i can't remember!) but either way it was a good price, and i do actually really like it! I would recommend trying it if you're looking for some hydration in your hair, plus it makes it smell nice :)
I've also seen online that they do a coconut shampoo so i'll have to try that next aswell!
If you've tried any of the other ones let me know how they are!

Morning cat selfie from Me and Cocoa ;D
I had some time to kill before work so i decided to go look in Select and there were actually a quite a few things that i wanted try on, there's a lot of bright colourful clothes in there at the minute and i love them type of colours, so this is what i ended up buying yesterday..
Love this vest top, i don't normally wear this kind of style top but the colour sold it for me, perfect for summer! The colour looks more of a deep pink on this photo, it's a lot more brighter. It's £7.99
I think this is sooo pretty! I love the flowery / lace design, lace tops are definitely one of my favourite trends.
This was £6 in the sale, bargainnn! :D
This is what they look like on:
The best thing about Select is that everything's a good price, most of the tops i buy from there are under £10, so it's always good to have a nosey in if you're looking for an affordable outfit.

I love love loveee these tights! I wanna know where i can get some, they're so cute! They even look like my cat :p Crazy cat lady clothing :D
I got paid today wooooop! So i wanna buy this top from New Look, the top pretty much says it all! :D
Love it! It's in the petite section for £15.99
I got this as a present, and i'd never really looked at this mascara before, but i started using it and i love it! I like my lashes looking quite bold and full and this works for me! I'm not sure on the eye brightening side of it, but to be honest i'm not too fussed about that anyway, i just want long looking lashes!
I definitely do recommend using this mascara, anything from natural looking to full lashes (after a couple of layers of course)
It's £7.99 from boots which is a good price considering i usually pay £10 - £12 for my mascara, so i'll be buying some more when this runs out!
Before..
And after!
So if you're looking to try a new mascara, i'd try this Max Factor mascara and see what you think!

So i was looking on the Boots website at what offers were on and came across the Charles Worthington range, the current offer is buy one get one half price, so i decided to give it a try. It's £5.99 for a 250ml bottle and with the offer i think it's worth it. So i bought the strength and repair conditioner along with the moisture seal mask which is also the same price
The conditioner does smell nice, it's not like a fruity smell, it's kinda perfumey, like what salon products smell like, which does make sense since it's supposed to be a salon brand. I do prefer fruity smelling ones, but this still smells nice. It's also got heat protection in it and is enriched with argan oil.
It is quite creamy and when you put it on it pretty much melts into your hair straight away and doesn't feel like it's all caked on so it doesn't feel like there's loads of product on your hair which is good.
Here's a swatch:
To be honest, i'm not sure it's the best conditioner ever, i do like it, but for the price, i was expecting something better. Like i'd been using the L'oreal elvive nutri gloss conditioner before i got this one, and i actually think my hair was silkier and shinier from using that, which was a lot cheaper.
I wouldn't say i'd never buy it again as it is good and does make my hair soft and shiny, i'm just not sure on the price.
I'm still looking for something that's going to make the ends of my hair appear less dry, i'm just not sure what! I need help!

Seriously need this in my life! Where can i get it?!!
This hair colour's pretty much the same as mine, wish it was this long though! it's gorgeous! Serious hair goals *-*
I loveee wearing headbands, i used to wear one everyday and i'd feel naked if i wasn't wearing one in my hair! But over the past year i've worn them less and less but i wanna start buying more again just to so my hair doesn't look boring all the time!
I recently got this from ebay but haven't worn it out yet, i think it'd be nice for a night out or if i go for a nice meal somewhere. I love how the chain goes in to two at the front and the chain and pearls on the side reminds me of a flapper girl from the 1920's :')
I got this last summer from New Look but i've only worn it a few times, i wanna start wearing it again though because i like the colours and pattern, it's just cute and pretty :) looks a bit retro 80s!
I seriously want this cat! I'd just giggle at it all day, it's so cute!
This is why i have to wear make up e'rryday! -.-
Winter's my absolute least favourite season! Apart from snow (when it's thick enough that i can make a snowman) i hate it, i don't like being cold alllll the time! So i usually wear long jumpers with leggings. My favourite place to look online is Boohoo.com, especially for summer fashion because they always have different designs, if they had a proper shop that would be perf! But for now, online will have to do!
But if i'm looking around shops, i'd say New Look is my favourite place, because they have a couple of different designers and makes. So this year i went in there and saw the jumper / tshirt combo which i've never thought of before, it probably makes me look like i should be in college or uni lol, but i don't mind ;)
I wish i'd seen it sooner so i could've bought a few different jumpers like this, maybe more colourful ones, but since it's spring i'll probably leave it til later on in the year again now!

Hey everyone. For christmas i got a set of Lee Stafford hair products, i got 2 masks, (one 'for hair the doesn't grow past a certain length' and the ubuntu oils hair butter) and the poker straight heat protection spray.
For the Ubuntu Oils hair butter, it says on the lid 'feels weird, amazing results!' and to be honest, i do actually really like this stuff. It smells gorgeous and always leaves my hair feeling soft, and the smell does stay in your hair afterwards which i like.
I use it about 3 times a week, it does say use every wash until your hair is better and then use once a week, but i still liked using it when i washed it anyway.
I think it has helped my hair, although it's still not in the condition i want it to be in so i'm not sure if i need to buy more and keep using it and see what happens, or try something else. But i will say that i would purchase it again as i do love the smell and how soft my hair goes :)
The downfall is that it didn't like me long, but that's probably because i was getting a lot of use out of it in the week. I'd say it lasted 2 / 3 weeks.
It's £12.99 from boots, so it is pricey, but most of the time they have some sort of offer on Lee Stafford products so it's not too bad if you do get it 3 for 2 or something like that.
Between this and the other hair mask i got, i prefer this one, but the other one does last longer, it's got a more creamy consistency, whereas this butter is quite thick, but does melt on to your hair once it's on.
i do recommend it if you're looking for something to give you soft shiny hair, it is worth a try!

Oh my glob! I don't care how lame i am, i actually can't wait for the Adventure Time movie!
I don't think there's been much production on it yet so it'll probably be a while til it gets released, but i'm deffo gonna watch it :D Algebraic!
I'm also a bit obsessed with Card Wars, i've got the app on my phone, and yeah, i'm pretty awesome at it. Just throwing that out there. ;)
Yup, i have an Adventure time tshirt. They sell them in Primark, couldn't resist!
Summer's my favourite time of year because i love summer clothes! I always enjoy finding new trends and outfit ideas to try out. This is something i wore recently to a baby shower, and i'll defintely be wearing it again when it's warm!
The crop top is from new look, i normally wear it with a high waisted skirt but decided on jeans to be more casual.
I 'm going Newquay in July and Magaluf in October so i need to start buying bikini's and summer outfits again soon! :D

Cheesecakes are definitely one of my favourite desserts! I don't care how fattening they are, it's soo worth it! I've made quite a few over the past couple of years and it's good because they're normally pretty easy to make.
This was a kinder bueno cheesecake, think this was one of the first i ever made, we blended some of the bueno bar with the cheese and it tasted amaaaazing!
This was my valentine's cheesecake, i did a cookie base with a milky bar layer and then a galaxy chocolate layer, nom!
This was a galaxy cookie crumble cheesecake with white chocolate buttons, it was gorgeousss!

My boyfriend's cat actually plays fetch, if you throw her a bangle, she'll run after it and bring it back to you to throw again. And if you even just mention the word 'fetch' her tail goes all fluffy and she starts looking for her bangle :') hahaha, too cute.
I think she'd be perfect for the O2 be more dog adverts!
So Kim K has dyed her hair platinum blonde, i loved her hair when it was long and blonde, it really suited her skin tone, but i'm not so sure on the platinum, it looks kind of cheap and makes her look a bit like an alien (sorry kim!) she can normally pull off anything, but i don't like this look on her much. What do you guys think?? Blonde or brunette?
Since i've been wanting to grow my hair, i decided to not straighten it as much and try keep it natural. It's naturally curly / frizzy, so i wanted something to help with that.
I was looking at people's reviews online and saw this sea salt spray which is supposed to give you mermaid beach waves. I tried it out last summer and now i literally don't think i could live without it! It's my must have! After i've washed my hair i'll spray that all over and then scrunch my hair, i'll leave it to dry naturally and i have nice curls that aren't frizzy, without damaging my hair using curlers.
If you're looking for curly hair without any heat, i'd definitely buy some sea salt spray since it's quick and easy. It's £4.05 from superdrug, i recommend looking in bodycare as it's normally cheaper in there :) but it's good for when superdrug have a two for £5 offer on so look out for that.
This was last year, more bed head messy loose curls
i think this would look gorgeous on girls with long hair that want that i woke up like this kind of look. Which is why i want mine to grow nice and long! I'm yet to wear all my hair down with these curls yet, i normally wrap it around a headband (which also helps to get bouncy curls after) and leave the front parts of my hair out.

So a random fact about me is that i actually love snapbacks, i don't really share it with many people because i only own one and don't wear it too much because i'm still trying to find my style that goes with it. If i had my own house and loads of money, i'd have like a whole section on my wardrobe just full of different snapbacks! I remember there was a girl on Take Me Out last year who wore one every episode and i think she looked awesome and i wish i was bold enough like her to wear one all the time! I actually decorated my own one a while ago and love it ( i did get the
idea from my phone case so i can't take credit for the design!) but i do
want to eventually make more in the future ;D
This was probably like a year ago! I do miss my hair extensions to be honest!
And i stole this one from my boyfriend heheheh!
I've always had problems with dark circles under my eyes and was looking online for help with this and saw a few people saying almond oil helps it a lot, so i decided try it. I looked online and saw that Holland and Barratt sold it, so i went and bought it from there. It's £3.49 for 100ml and £5.99 for 200 ml.
I've been using it for about a month or two now, before i go to bed i massage a couple of drops under my eyes and just leave it to sink in overnight. (I have been slacking with it lately though, my bad!)
I do like the oil itself, but i'm not sure if it's actually worked for me for my dark circles. I am going to continue to buy it as it's good for a number of things, like it's supposed to be good for stretch marks, so i massage it on them when i come out of the bath. I use it as an exfoliator too, i mix the oil with sugar and honey and use it once or twice a week, and i love it because it makes my skin really soft. I heard this recipe was good for black heads but so far nothing's worked for mine (tried the nose strips before) so if anyone has anything they can recommend for that, i'd be grateful! I've also heard it's good for your hair, but i haven't tried it out yet, but i will do soon as i want to compare it to coconut oil, which i normally use overnight every now and again, so i'll do a review on both of them to compare.
There's also a sale on at Holland and Barratt at the moment where you buy something and get another for half price so i might go and get some more to use on my hair and see how that goes!
A lot of people online have said it works for them and their dark circles, so maybe it'll work for you, nothing just seems to work for mine! But i'll keep looking and hopefully something will work one day!
Thanks for reading!
