WHATS IN MY HAND LUGGAGE?

You know that panic of deciding what to take with you on holiday? Yep, I have that now. Off to Mexico fairly soon and so ready for some sleeping, eating, swimming and sun time. I've been out bought a few (far too many) new outfits and I've just about decided what I'm taking on the plane with me! I wanted to quickly share what I see as useful in flight items! 

END OF AN ERA

So with my last exam approaching I'm just procrastinating to the full and trying to avoid revision at all costs (this is a very bad idea and strongly suggest you don't)! Revision notes currently fill my table to the brim and seeing others have already finished their exams and started summer really isn't helping! I have enjoyed the past few days with my boyfriend doing cricket related things as #cricketseason is upon us. I apologise for the lack of posts this month, I have no excuses I'm just a little lazy sometimes.
Yesterday I went so see some of my art and photography work in an exhibition that the school had put on and wanted to share some of the images here on my blog, enjoy!

PINK OMBRÈ LIPS

Today was the day I finished my second a-level YAY!!  So naturally I was in an extremely good mood. This led me to wanting to mix up my make up a bit. Recently I've been really loving MAC's Candy Yum Yum in the Matte finish. It's such a fun pretty shade of hot pink with a slight undertone of blue. The only down side to the MAC Matte finishes is they dry my lips so much. However I'm willing to suffer for this amazing shade! I've literally been wearing it daily.

DIY GEL NAILS

I'm a big lover of gel nails! The high shine and smooth texture is a love of mine. I've never had my nails done using gel polish at a salon before as I am on a budget!

I purchased the Sensationail starter kit which gave me everything I needed to get started! I've quickly googled how much this was, and I've found an offer on at boots for the Starter Kit and Scarlet Red shade for £45. I own about 8 colours now and I love every single one. The colour I'm using today is the Pink Chiffon colour from the Sensationail range. It's so easy to do!

I started off my using the Gel Cleanser to clean down my nails before I start.

DOUBLE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Today's blog post is my own recipe that I've used plenty of times to create my own double chocolate chip cookies, using both milk and white chocolate! To make these I've mixed several recipes that I've seen to create (what I think) to be the BEST cookies ever! All the ingredients are easily sourced and they're super easy to make!

OOTD #1

Today I was really feeling wearing my Topshop coat, who loves a bit of black? I know I do! 

SHOPPING AND CATCH UPS

So yesterday I met up with my friend Molly who I haven't seen in a while, it was really lovely to catch up. We decided that we would head into town and catch up over some much needed retail therapy with limited funds! Moll drove us up as I still haven't been on the motorway yet! I will soon hopefully, I just need to build up the courage to get my ass in gear and do it!
