Day in the Park

Hi! So I know I said in a previous post that I was going to do a few reviews and I promise that I DO have the photos on my phone but I felt like doing a little post about my day at the park instead. I'm really sorry if anyone was looking forward to a review but I plan to post that later this week so I hope you enjoy this post.














I hope everyone else's weekend was as lovely as mine,
Internet hugs and smiles,

New Spring Shoes

Hia!
 I'm really sorry that I haven't posted for a while, I don't really have any good reason as I was mostly just watching multiple Dan and Phil videos on repeat as a former of procrastination. I am planning on doing a short review on the L'OrĂ©al Hair Thickening Shampoo and Conditioner sometime soon and maybe a Q&A aswell so if you have any questions for that I'de love it if you could comment those on this post.
     Anyways a while ago I was trying on shoes in New Look and I saw really nice ones that I thought would be perfect for this spring and summer. Sadly I didn't have the money with me at the time but yesterday I got them! They have thick soles and a really sweet dark blue and creamy white pattern. They're also really nice if you want to look slightly taller but find high heels uncomfortable.


As you can see here they do have laces but I prefer to leave the  laces inside the shoe as it looks neater to me. You could wear these with loads if different clothes including skinny jeans, shorts, a skirt or maybe even a summer dress. So far these are quite comfy and only costed around €19 which is quite cheap compared to most Converse or Vans. In these photos I wore them with navy tights, a short black skirt and jumper.

New Bag and Frilly Socks

Hia!
So today I'll be doing a post with a lot of photos and not much writing. I know that sometimes I prefer posts with lots of pictures and other times I really like to read about people's opinions but I'm not really sure what everyone else likes. If you like posts like this then please tell me in the comments but if not you can check out some of my other posts :)
     Recently I've been buying a lot of little things like socks and jewellery because I find that there aren't much nice clothes. Plus it's really hard to think of buying t-shirts when you're wearing two jumpers and still feel a bit chilly!

First thing I got was this amazing bag in Accesorize.



I really love the colours in this, it's also really great quality and you don't need to go to the trouble of un-doing buckles as it is fastened magnetically. I'm so sorry if this is blurry, it was quite a dark day and I use my phone as a camera (super professional set-up).

Next up I got super cute frilly mint green socks from New Look.

These are super comfy, super cute and perfect in every way :)

Lastly I got adorable black and white frilly socks that are also from New Look!

I thought these would look so cute with coloured tights as they look quite classy. I'm sorry if these look blurry in the photo, the lighting was really bad and as I mentioned earlier I took the photos with my phone.



And super exciting news: I got an 8GB MicroSD for my phone! I can now edit photos on my phone, get addicted to Crossy Road and take lots more photos! I recently got a new app called Retrica and although the quality of photos isn't great, it's still really nice for profile pictures or just fun photos with your friends as it comes with loads of different filters that you can actually put on the photo before you take it!

Spring Inspired Hair

Hia!
 So I decided to do a quick tutorial on my take on a Spring hairstyle and take the big risk of *drum-roll please* making it public on youtube for you all to watch!
I'll write down some steps here in case you are unsure after watching the video.

  1. Brush out all your hair, starting with the bottom sections.
  2. Brush the hair from your ears up back, almost like a ponytail and tie it with a thin bobble.
  3. If you have a side-fringe tie it away from your face with a bobby pin.
  4. Bring your hair around from the back of your head and around the side of your head to plait.
  5. You can choose whichever way you want to plait but since I'm not great at hair I did a simple plait.
  6. (optional) Use a pastel coloured lace ribbon to tie a bow on to the end of your plait.
Love and Internet hugs
