I'm Back!

Heya,

After a hectic 6 months I finally have enough time to run this blog again, and write about the things I love! So as an update, here are my favourite things of 2015 so far!

1. Film- Pitch Perfect 2

Bit of an obvious choice but it had me in stitches. We went and saw this the night before our last day of school and we were so excited. As a massive fan of the first film I was scared the second one would disappoint (as many sequels do!) however, that wasn't the case. With the same type of obvious humour and hilarious characters, this film was amazing! This film focused a lot more on the minor characters than the first one, and overall this made the story line more gripping and exciting. This film is a must watch  if you're  having a girls-night.

Rating: 9/10

2. Album- The Perks Of Being A Wallflower Soundtrack

When this film came out I was instantly blown away by the soundtrack. The use of classic songs perfectly captured the emotions portrayed in the film. From the freedom of 'Heroes' to the sadness of 'Asleep'. I was obsessed with this soundtrack when the film originally came out in 2012, but then I kind of forgot about it, However this year has been a year of making final memories and so, recently I have reconnected with this amazing album. I highly recommend listening to it, no matter what mood you're in!

Rating: 11/10

3. Make-up:  Body Shop Shimmer Waves Blush

In my opinion, The Body Shop is often underrated for their makeup. This blusher provides a range of shades of pink and even a silvery highlighter. So, whether you need a bright pink blush that stands out or a subtle coral you can use these waves to get a natural effect whilst choosing the shades you want!

Rating 7/10

They are my main three favourites for the year so far! However, I have also been loving the shop Monki (which I discovered whilst exploring London),  Cecelia Ahern's books (Currently rereading where rainbows end for the millionth time), the Women's World Cup and my signature lemon cake!

Sorry it's been so long!

I'll be back soon!

Hello October!

Heya,

October already! This year is flying by but luckily autumn is still in full flow.

Now, I am 100% a 'summer girl' however there's something in me that loves autumn. Maybe it's the hot chocolates,  the cosy knit wear, the movie marathons with the girls, the walks out in the countryside, or the  nice pots of tea. Something about it just makes me feel warm and fuzzy! And I know this winter will be just as good.

I have so much to look forward to this October as well! Firstly, It's two of my best friend's 18th birthdays! This means, parties, group hugs and singing at the top of our lungs as well as cute pressies! (I'll probably do a post on these!)

It's also the release of Taylor Swift's new album 1989! I know this is a bit controversial as soooo many people don't like her, but I love her. However, I am not sure how I feel about this new album, she has said that it will be a lot more 'pop' than her previous albums. This kinda saddens me because her country songs are my favourite! But I'm still looking forward to hearing it because I know that even if I don't like it at first, it'll grow on me!

Also autumn = shopping! I can't wait to build up my autumn/winter wardrobe this season with cute dresses and knitwear! I love the rich colours and textures that are used in autumn, especially deep orange and                                                       maroon! eeeeek!

Finally, the thing I'm most excited for, is the 'Love, Rosie' Film!!!! Now, this is based on my all time favourite book ' Where Rainbows End' , and has 2 of my favourite actors in Sam Claflin and Lily Collins. I'm so excited because I've been waiting for so long and I know it'll be just perfect! I can already tell they've changed the story line a bit, from the adverts, but we have to stay optimistic until it's released! (22nd October)

So there we are! A bit of a pointless post but I'm so excited for October!


Speak soon,

Lois Mae
