I was going to do another ‘current playlist’ post, but I realised that the majority of the tracks would be from films. Hence, this post will be specifically dedicated to songs I have discovered via movies! God Help The Girl– A beautiful movie, with an even more beautiful soundtrack! My favourite ones are: Perfection As A […]
Top 5 books I have never finished
The House Of The Scorpion by Nancy Farmer: I’m not sure why I didn’t reach the end of this book; I actually really enjoyed what I did read of it. Maybe I will reread it soon… The Immortals by Paul Stewart and Chris Riddell: I am ashamed to say that although I read all nine […]
Recent Reads
I haven’t written a book review in a while, so I thought I would share the books I have recently finished in a collection of mini reviews I Am The Cheese by Robert Cormier: This book is pretty good- it took me a while to get into it, but it’s worth it for the twist […]
Skincare routine
Just to let you know, I usually use products recommended for combination/oily skin, so please don’t use these products if you have dry skin! My skin is often acne prone and I get very dry lips. I have to be careful which products I use because lots of them make me break out. I have […]
Movie Review: Begin Again
I remember seeing the trailer for Begin Again whilst I was watching The 100! Honestly, I thought it looked extremely cheesy and cliched, and I thought I would never watch it… However the other day I was ill so I thought I’d check it out, and I was really surprised by how much I enjoyed it! The […]
Naked palette vs dupe
So I’ve had the first Naked palette for about two years now, and I definitely use a few colours a whole lot more than the rest of the palette. Virgin- for highlighting my cupids bow and under my eyebrows. I use it over the top of a MAC prep and prime highlighter pen, but I don’t usually […]
Current Playlist
Adventures of Isabel- Natalie Merchant Bold Jamie- Cara Dillon (I saw her perform this live a while ago- it was amazing!) Numbers Don’t Lie- The Mynabirds (I found the Mynabirds because of this song- it was on the soundtrack of Warm Bodies) Let the Record Go- The Mynabirds Body of Work- The Mynabirds Greenback Boogie- Ima Robot (The […]
The Night Circus
Sorry for the lack of posting recently… I’ve had a lot of stuff going on so I’ve been a little lazy reading wise and haven’t finished many books. However, one book I did read and absolutely loved was The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern. It took a while to get going but it was definitely […]
Cycling by the canal!
Because today was such a beautiful day I cycled down the Kennet and Avon canal with my family, and thought I would share some of the things that I noticed! A middle aged couple wearing exactly the same outfit (beige coats and wellies) does every couple do this as they get older?! I fear for my […]
S’mores Brownie for Mother’s Day!
This mother’s day I decided to bake my mum a gift, and thought this looked tasty. The recipe is from a youtube video by CupcakeJemma, but if you follow it directly from the video it’s a bit complicated as her video on brownie batter is separate from her s’mores one. Also she uses some equipment […]
