FLYING HIGH BATH BOMB - BOMB COSMETICS.



Flying High is the first bath bomb that I've ever tried from the Bomb Cosmetics range. I've seen them on people's Instagrams and that, but I've never really seen any in person. This one was bought for me by my sister when she went away. She knows just how much I love to be in the bath with a good bomb.

Now this bath bomb is very pretty to look at, it has a main colour of turquoise with some cute little red mushrooms on the top (I think that's what they are), but to be honest it didn't really impress me that much. Don't get me wrong it did smell really nice, kinda like palma violets mixed with either vanilla or coconut, but it wasn't strong and it didn't give me that wow factor like a Lush Cosmetics bath bomb does. I'm feeling a Lush haul coming on again very soon. Although the bath bomb did leave my skin feeling super soft and you could definitely feel all the oils that had been released when the bath bomb had dissolved. Flying high did leave my bath water a gorgeous turquoise colour, which wasn't a nightmare to rinse away after, that's always a plus! Have you tried anything from Bomb Cosmetics before? If so what did you think?

SUNFLOWER - OOTD.


SUNFLOWER OOTD

Baby spice move over because there's a new girl in town and I love me some platforms! How frickin' awesome are these shoes though? I'm in LOVE! I found these little beauties on Boohoo this week and they was only £25.00! Bargain. I seem to have an obsession with cleated soles at the minute too. Anyone else? 

Motel, Motel, Motel... When it comes to Motel Rocks I could literally put every single item on their website in my basket and click check out, but unfortunately I'm not a millionaire and I can't do that. I'll just have to make do with my little splurges every now and again. I've been after something with a sunflower print for ages as I'm going out this weekend for one of my friends birthdays. That's when I stumbled across this little crop top, it's part of a co ord set, which means I also bought the little tube skirt too (obviously). I'm sure they'll be some pictures popping up on my Instagram or Twitter over the weekend. I'm pairing the co ord with these new shoes so I will be able to dance all night long without my feet burning away. It feels like I haven't done one of these in what feels like forever! All I could think whilst looking through these pictures was, how is it possible to keep white skinnies cleaner throughout the day than it is to keep black jeans? It seems bizarre, but it's so true! Right? 

I hope you all have a fabulous weekend!

I didn't even use my trusty tripod for these pictures. I've been showing my little brother a few tips and tricks and he managed to take all three of these pictures for me. I think he's done a damn good job! He's only 10 years old :o well done and thank you Harry! x

DATING - LIFESTYLE.

Ok so this is a different kind of post today, but I'd like to see what works and what doesn't work, so what the eck. So, I seem to have many friends that come to me for dating and relationship advise and tips, why? I'm the one here that's still single. 'But you know how to be' and 'I need to know how to play it cool' etc. That could be the reason why I'm still living the lifestyle of an 18 year old! 
Yes, I'm 23years old and I'm still 'loving life' being single. How very cringey of me.

Ok so let's get to the nitty gritty, dates? 
Duh, duh, duuuuuuuh! What to do? Where to go? How do I act? What do I wear? Am I good enough for him/her? And always the day before or on the day... am I poorly? Haha! (sorry to any of the guys that may read this who've asked me on a date and I've totally pied you off with an 'I'm not feeling very well' text message). It happens! What will be will be. OK JUST STOP.
Forget about all of that! Get yourself dolled up like you're off out to meet one of the girls at the bar. You never know who's coming around that corner anyway (Johnny Knoxville you're welcome anytime). Nerves? Have a vodka! (Obviously if you're over 18) haha! Am I good enough for him/her? Is HE/SHE good enough for you? Stop worrying and wondering whether they like you or not. Just sit back and take it all in. You know when someone likes you or is interested by how the act around you. What's that quote... "Don't talk, just act. Don't say, just show. Don't promise, just prove.' It's corny I know, but very true. And if the dates a total flop, the dates a total flop! You'll probably never see them again anyway and you've more than likely had a free slap up meal or went to see that film you wanted to see anyway, bonus! You need to learn to leave your emotions back at home. 

What NOT to do when dating
Have high expectations - you're going on your first date jeez just don't expect anything.
Overload with text messages - NO if he/she wants to text you they will. This is where it's ok to be stubborn.
Get jealous far too soon - so what if he likes another girls picture on Instagram. I bet I like pictures of men with beards and tattoos more ha! *perv alert* 
Get drunk on the first date - you know it's not going to end well and more than likely those beer goggles will be on and you will think you're dating Gerard Butler.
Slop your chops - don't even dare! They won't be a second date
Show weakness - just don't! Think Queen B!
Love you - YES some even say the L word far too soon. Yes! I've had this after a week... a week! I've been in 8 month relationships and still questioned if I'll ever love them haha. Obviously they didn't work out and I now know not to date men that take longer to get ready than me. 

So just be yourself and enjoy every moment. You'll either come back in coo coo land which is filled with floating love hearts and unicorns or have some kind of funny story to tell all of your friends. I'll never forget the disaster meal date I had when I came home and had to tell everyone about me going for something 'not messy' off the menu, it was a fruit pasta dish and I choked on a grape. A grape! Or you go for your favourite gammon dish and you're trying to elegantly cut the meat and all your garden peas end up on your dates lap. So yeah, I try to avoid meal dates as much as I can now haha!

What happened to the days when phones didn't exist and if you was meeting someone, you went and met them? You clicked instantly, fell in love, got married and if you had any relationship drama you fought through it rather than chucking the towel in. That's another problem these days... We'll save that for another post though eyy?


& just remember ladies
'If anyone can have it, you don't want it'
No one wants someone that's messaging/meeting everyone on the block. Sleaze balls make me gag!
