Duke of Edinburgh Expedition

These photos as promised from my Duke of Edinburgh expedition! I am so lucky to have done my expedition with such a stunning landscape surrounding me and despite all the hills we had to climb I actually really enjoyed being at … Continue reading

Belated apology…

Oh dear… It appears I have neglected my blog for a lot longer than I intended!  I underestimated the stress of exams quite a lot so that took out a fair proportion of time and when I was planning to start blogging on holiday the wifi in the hotel failed me…

However, my time management problems aside, I am now ready to start blogging again on a more regular basis as I only have 10 more days left of school *excited squeal*.
Over the next few days I will be posting some photos I took over the last few weeks including some from my Duke of Edinburgh expedition last weekend along with some reviews and general lifestyle posts!
Thanks for reading and hope you enjoy my next few posts…

I got my hair cut today which is what is making me happy! I think I’m probably the only girl my age who is actually excited about getting my hair cut shorter…I suppose I can’t be the only one who loves the feeling of healthy hair after it’s been cut!
I’ve been using the same hairdressers for a couple of years now and they’ve never disappointed me! The staff are all so lovely and welcoming and I’ve never had a cut to cry about, which is a good sign I’m sure.
I haven’t had anything too major done apart from a couple of inches off but I’ve posted a picture below!
Until tomorrow,

100 happy days 26

Another day of unexciting revision before my exams next week was what joys my day installed!

In my break however I did treat myself to a pre-order of a copy of Coldplay’s new album Ghost stories off amazon. I can’t remember when I put the itunes version of Ghost stories on pre-order but I have a feeling it was pretty much the day it was available… I’m slightly obsessed as you can probably tell! The next step in my obsession is to now get tickets for their London concert at the Royal Albert Hall but I’m not feeling too hopeful as the New York show sold out in 3 seconds… Fingers crossed, someone has to get them!

I must say I am really enjoying the tracks that have been released already from Ghost Stories especially I’m loving the most recently released Sky full of stars. If you haven’t listened to any of the tracks yet I so recommend you give them a listen, the whole album is different to what they’ve done previously but still has the same energy.

I can’t wait till the full album is released on the 19th! Less than 10 days to go now!!

That’s all from me today but if there are any other Coldplay fans out there please pop up, I’d love to hear from you and what you think of Ghost stories so far.

Until tomorrow,

Oops… Bit late tonight seeing as it’s actually Sunday now!
The reason for my late posting is a good one I promise, in fairness it was my Dad’s 50th party!
I didn’t dress up or anything but I wore my new dress (only 2.50 from eBay) and my new Neckless – picture below.
We didn’t do anything too big or have too many people over but instead we had two families over for a chilled night in front of the tele watching Eurovision…
The bearded woman was my favourite, who was yours?
Hope everyone else had a fun filled Saturday night!
Until tomorrow,

Not much to say today really as it was a really chilled day even though I did have school!
However some film for my polaroid camera which I had orders arrived early which made me happy.
I’ve got an original polaroid which was my mums and you can still but film for. Instead of just getting the white edged film I managed to find a pack that had 8 different colours!
I have to be really careful about what I spend my photos on because it was really expensive for a pack of 8 but worth it for those special occasions!
Just a quick post tonight!
Until tomorrow,

Today’s a big day in my house hold as it’s my dad’s 50th birthday! We didn’t want him to enjoy it too much so we made sure he went to parents evening before we went out for a meal…
We didn’t want to go out anywhere fancy as that just isn’t our thing at all, instead we chose one of our favourite little restaurants called Love food which has just been re-vamped!
The restaurant is run by an Italian family who are so lovely and hospitable and it serves wholesome traditional Mediterranean and Italian cuisine. Only recently has Love Food changed from a cafe-y/lunch type place to a more restaurant type place as well but nevertheless the quality of food was amazing! What is also means is that the atmosphere isn’t as uptight and posh as it would be in other mainstream places.
However…The best thing by far has to be the cakes as they are all homemade and all interesting recipes you would find anywhere on the high street! They even made a birthday cake for my Dad which has to be one of, if not the best cake I’ve tried!
After tonight Love Food is surely on our list of favourite places to go out for a meal
Hope everyone else had as good evening as I did and there is picture of the beautifully crafted cake below!
Until tomorrow,

My weekend of sailing has proved hard on my lips as well as my face it seems so today I set out to find a solution for my chapped lip nightmare!

I trolled through some blog post and few things on twitter to come to the conclusion my best bet was to buy myself the Burt’s Bees conditioning lip-balm. I was relieved when I tried it that it wasn’t just another gimmick that works for two seconds but as soon as you stop applying it it makes your lips feel even worse *cough* Baby Lips *cough*.

Anyways… my lips are feeling replenished and back to normal so I guess good old Burt’s Bees has done it’s job! Would seriously recommend this to anyone suffering from the dreaded sore lips!

Thanks for reading, if anyone else has any good brands of lipcare don’t hesitate to comment or drop me a tweet!

Until tomorrow,
