Wales' One Week Of Summer

Wales has just overcome a massive heatwave to which the temperatures hit 37 degrees Celsius, if that's not even hot for you please be quiet, it very rarely hits 22 in Wales. To make the most of the weather I did a variety of things! 

These photos were taken yesterday, don't be fooled by the clouds. It was still hot, but if you can't spend your Monday feeding ducks with a three year old, how can you?

Me and my best friend Georg decided to go out for some Summer drinks and ended up in town somehow! Still a lovely night nonetheless. 

This is a special day. Me and my grandma, after we had gone for afternoon tea to celebrate her 90th birthday <3

Me and some work friends decided to head out on the hottest day of the year and spend it by the riverbank, we ended up being too hot so headed up to work and spent it under the trees! That night we ended up going out to a quiz that we do every Tuesday :)

Me and my family headed out to a park to have a picnic, the little boy is my godson/cousin's little boy! This was the day before the heatwave and we had no idea what temperature it would be. Jeans was a bad idea. 

This was one of my favourite nights. Me and the work girls headed to the races where we live, we won a bit of money and then watched Peter Andre, so so funny!

Autumn Essentials

My Autumn Essentials

Autumn is my favourite season. Not just because I am an Autumn baby, but because of the leaves, weather, fashion and environment. It's not too cold like Winter, but it's cold enough for the hats and scarves to come out. 

Fashion

My absolute favourite fashion trend is the tartan scarves. They are absolutely gorgeous and mine is from Boohoo. I feel they can make any outfit go from average to stylish. I also love beanies! I have one from Primark and although I can't pull them off. I still love them! 

Makeup

A dark lip is obviously going to mentioned here. I just love them! I am quite insecure wearing them as I am very much a nude girl at heart (oops that didn't sound right!). But as it was my birthday a couple of days ago, I received Rebel from MAC as a gift and I can't wait to wear it! It's a signature must have from MAC, I feel! However, I am partial to a cheap lip aswell, and MUA's lipstick in Shade 1 for a £1 couldn't go a miss either. 

Food

Of course it's the time for us to forget about wanting that bikini body and shaving our legs, am I right ladies or am I right? So a lot of food is essential. All I can say for this is CHOCOLATE. In particular, Roses from Cadburys, mmmmmm.

Drink

It is not the Pumpkin Spice Latte from Starbucks. I haven't tried it, and I can't say I want to! I adore Whittards. They're a hot drinks company and oh my gaaaaahd, it's so good! My favourite hot chocolate is the Caramel hot chocolate. I recommend you try it ASAP. 

TV

As it isn't the time for being out in the cold right now, I see myself spending more and more time at home in bed! I have been addicted to Gossip Girl, i don't know what it is about Blair Waldorf but I want to be her so bad! 

So I hope you liked this little post, I was going to do a favourites but if I'm honest, I'd rather not as I don't give the best descriptions and terminology!

Thanks for reading :)

Here we go again!

Hello! This is one of my many attempts to get this blog up and running, I've had it for a while but the posts I would make wouldn't be up to my standards or I would be too busy to keep the blog updated. So, after finishing school and undergoing a gap year this year, I thought the perfect time to do this blog would be now! Think of this as a diary, the diary of an 18 year old gap year kid.
