A PRETTY SKY AND MY SISTER - PHOTOGRAPHY BY GEORGIA

Hey you!

I know it has been a while, but i will explain the many reasons in another post this week! 
but for now, this post is some photo's I took recently of my sister. I recently decided, that I really want to take photography a bit more serious. mainly because it makes me so happy and I want to do more of what makes me happy!
I love the whole process of finding the location, taking the photo's of course and then editing them is just the cherry on the cake! I love seeing the end result and loving the images even more when i got the final images!
I hope you like these kind of posts, i hope that there will be more to come!

MY WAYS TO FIND INSPIRATION FOR BLOGGING

 

I think people call it 'Bloggers block', and boy I have had my fair share of this the last month or so! mainly because I have been working a lot and just haven't got round to drafting blog posts, but I am back today with some of the things I do to get some inspiration for posts. I hope they help you with some ideas and inspiration!

 

Browse social media - Instagram, Blogs, Pinterest, Tumblr. I think we all do this all day everyday and I think if you explore pages that you don't normally look at, you will be surprised at what you find! I could spend hours browsing on them and after a while, I would just get inspiration, whether it is for a blog post or an outfit I could put together or a makeup look or a cute makeup dressing table set up that I stumbled across on Pinterest.

 

Google! - have a look on Google, type in what you want to know and then have a browse through the websites or mainly blogs that have got long lists of blog post ideas or titles or inspiration. this isn't something I do as much now but last year I did find myself going to Google for some help and in the process I found some of my favourite bloggers!

 

Go outside - go shopping, go for a walk and get some of that h2o! I have sat at my laptop for so long, trying to figure out some ideas and started posts that I just wasn't passionate about, so I end up deleting it and I am back to the beginning again. now I tend to just give myself a little time and if I cant think of anything, I close my laptop and move onto something else. listen to some music and distract yourself and trust me you will get inspired by something or someone!

 

Get a note pad - grab yourself a pen and just doodle some post titles or subjects that you know about or are passionate about. I'm not saying write down a blog post but just keep notes or just write/draw ideas and just roll with it. I tend to do this a lot, if I am out working and think of a blog post idea, I quickly right down everything that pops into my head, it is mainly random words and small sentences, simply because I when I go home and sit with the laptop, I normally think of even more things to add to an idea or sometimes even think of another post idea. just get creative! its your blog, so you can talk about whatever you like!

 

Give your blog a makeover - its like getting a new pair of shoes or a sexy highlighter when your feeling a little bit shitty or when you just feel like treating yourself lol there isn't anything wrong with investing in something that your passionate about and enjoy doing. I updated my blog a few months ago, and it was the best thing I did and was so easy. There are so many websites that sell blog layouts, so have a look around and find one that you like! scroll down to the bottom of my page and check out the designer of mine, he even set mine up for me (as I didn't have a clue where to start! I am still coming to terms with html guys lol)

MY GO-TO GOLDEN MAKEUP LOOK

Hiya you beautiful lot! I'm back again with some pictures I wanted to share with you, of my golden eye makeup look with a little bit of glitter in the tear duck - I am OBSESSED with this look recently!

If you didn't know already but the orange tone eye shadows work perfectly with blue eyes, and make them 'pop!' lol, so I love going for the orange tone eye shadows at the moment.

If you would like a 'how-to' or a breakdown of the products used then please just drop a comment and I shall do it for you :)

MY HAIR

 

 

 

My hair, like everyone, has good days and some not so good days lol but today wasn't that bad, so I thought I would share some things I do to maintain my curly locks!

If you have been following my blog for a while now, I have posted about the Ogx Argon oil a few times and it was my go to product last summer, I have lost count to how many times I have re-purchased it!
Just for reference, my hair is super thick and very long and loose curls with some slight frizz. my hair is also very heavy now, because of the length, so the curls have dropped compared to when I had shorter hair.
Before I wash my hair I tend to have an idea of what I will be doing to my hair, for example: if I am planning on straightening my hair once dry then I don't normally use the same products to when I am leaving it curly. when I am just being lazy and want to leave it curly then I wash with shampoo and I tend to use a deep conditioner or sometimes a hair mask, I brush it whilst its still wet and then I give it a shake with my fingers and let it dry a little more. then I use the argon oil, for me personally, it helps define my curls and gives it a beautiful shine! (also smells SO good!). over the years I have coloured my hair, so there are parts of my hair, (mainly the top back of my head from my roots down) that are a bit more frizzy for my liking, so this is when I tend to use the styling mousse to help tame it a little bit and of course mousse gives a lot of volume - volume is not something I need as I have so much hair lol but it seems to work for me!

If you have any tips or products that you recommend for curly hair or anything that is good for the frizz then please do let me know! :)

I THINK I WANT TO GO TRAVELING!?

Follow my blog with Bloglovin

Hi guys!

I have been debating whether to mention this on my blog or not but I just thought why not!? I wont be going till next year but I think it would be a good way to share my plans and research as I go along to help others, and it also allows me to get advice from people that know a bit more about this than me lol

I have only really the last few weeks finally decided I am going to actually do it lol and since then my sister has said she would love to come with me and experience everything with me - which I am so happy about!

We both have said a number of places we would love to visit and we have roughly decided that we would want to leave end of next year and plan to go with enough funds for at least 3 months and potentially do some work and earn some pocket money to stay travelling for as long as possible.

I have found some amazing blogs with amazing tips and tricks, that are helping with where to start with organising the trips and a few of my friends have helped me with starting planning and where to visit etc. I think I will do another post with how I plan where to start this adventure and other things that I have to consider.

Below I have left a few tips to where to begin your travels!

although, there are lots of things to consider, I have given you some that people have told me to think of first.

1. Think of when. give yourself a month that you want to start traveling and then decide where you want to go and what you want to see or experience in these places, so you can make the most of your time there.

2. Do your research! Look into any visas that you may require and if you plan for volunteering or working whilst in certain destinations then you will need to get all the required documents. and keep copies of all these sort of documents with a friend or family incase of emergencies.

3. Ensure you research an estimate amount of money you will need/want to take with you. and also remember than you will have to arrange to cancel or have money left in a bank account for any bills or direct debits that you may have to continue paying. or even try to get them paid off before you travel. and keep money left aside for plane tickets to return home, so no matter what you will always have the money there to get home.

4. Make the most of useful websites and Apps that can literally plan your travels for you or at least help with places to stay in the local areas that you plan on staying with. always ensure that you have looked for the cheapest flights possible ( Skyscanner is a popular one!) also keeping an eye out for flight sales that go on throughout the year could also help with reducing spending.

5. Try not to over plan things and don't research too much - simply because things could change and you may change your mind or take a different route. Ensuring your laid back to the idea of travelling will ensure you make the most of the whole experience! You don't go travelling to plan every single detail and run on a time schedule like you do when your at home living your 9-5 job, so live in the moment as much as possible and do things that you wouldn't normally do!

I will keep you updated on my plans people! I am so excited to start saving and making the most of this world we live in.

THIS TIME LAST YEAR

Alternative Fujifilm intax mini
 

Hi guys!

so a reason why I chose to do this post, was that I was randomly on Facebook, and if you all know, they let you know what you was doing a year ago lol and mine was this!!!

let me tell you, it did not make me happy ha! I was in Egypt with my sister and was sunning it up in scorching hot weather! I found a load of polaroid's that I took when we was on holiday and I hadn't shared them, so this was a perfect excuse to do so! I sadly have to wait till September to get away to a nice hot country.

Any of you going on holiday soon!? or any getting holiday blues right now? lol

MY FAVOURITE MASCARA

BENEFIT THEY'RE REAL MASCARA

Now ladies.. I have not come across a better mascara than this beauty! As I am getting older, I am following my mums advice (years and years later lol) when it comes to you pay for what you get most times and this is pure proof that it is true. 

I have tried probably all of the half decent drugstore ones but with this I haven't found a fault at all! No clumps, the perfect amount of product on the brush and of course it makes my super long eyelashes even longer! lol. I have purchased this 4 times now since I first tried it and I haven't looked back since! I am constantly getting compliments on my lashes when I have this on! It's very popular and an award winning product and I would deffo recommend you try it!

THE BEST SPOT TREATMENT I HAVE FOUND!

 

 

CLINIQUE - ANTI-BLEMISH SOLUTIONS

Clinical clearing gel

 

Hi guys! I hope you are all well and making the most of this nice weather in England at the moment! I think spring is finally here!

So, I just had to share my thoughts on this little beauty. It has become my holy grail and It is deffo the best spot treatment that I have used. I got it just before Christmas and it has lasted until now and I still have 1/4 left! I noticed today that I had a little left and thought I had to get a post up. I will be re-purchasing it again the weekend because I just don't know how I will cope without it haha. it works perfectly on those big, red, stubborn spots. I find it tends to work better when put on before you got to bed and its like magic and it has either gone or reduce the size/redness a lot!

The lovely girl on the Clinique counter advised me to get this size (30ml) as she said she had hers for months and it is good for traveling etc. but they do also do a bigger size which I think I may get instead this time.

EVERYONE HAS DOWN DAYS..

Hi guys! 

This post is just a reminder to everyone and mostly myself! That everyone has down days, it's all about how you deal with them! 

Some people deal with 'down days' differently, some better than others. But myself, I tend to mainly go for the gym! 

But don't get me wrong, sometimes I feel really down that gym just can not get rid of the feelings. So sometimes, I do my makeup or just lay in bed and binge on a whole series of Geordie Shore or The Good Wife lol or I like to do some colouring or read a book or I tend to just randomly start spring cleaning the house lol which is really weird if it's at 9 o'clock at night!! Ha!

I know this is a short post, but I just thought I would share some things I have found myself doing when I have a shit day! How do you's deal with a bad day!?

Mine was £7.99, with free postage! BARGIN
