What's happening?!?

Hi there!! So, as the weeks have gone on and its coming up towards Christmas I have decided a few things. The first thing being if you watch my YouTube videos you have seen I haven't really posted a lot. Well, I have 1 video just to edit together and that should be up this time this week. The second thing being all the way through December I am going to try and do vlogmas. It seems like a fun thing to do and I am hoping that you guys will enjoy it.

Now, to do with blog posts because I don't want my blog to seem like its less important than my YouTube channel, (which it isn't, its more important!) below you will see a picture of a box with lots of products in it. I have been receiving glossybox boxes for about 3 months now and I thought that everytime I use one of the products I will review it. So, there will be lots of reviews on the way. More videos on the way. 


So, this was just really to tell you all what is happening over the next few months. I hope you will look forward to it and I will see you soon!! xx

501 Fancy A Dip Nail Polish Review.


Hi there! So I bought a nail polish over a week ago and I love it so much! It was just the colour that I wanted and I thought I haven't ever done a review I don't think. So, I thought what better way to start off doing reviews by starting with a nail polish. This is the Rimmel Lasting Finish 501 Fancy A Dip? It is a gorgeous pastel blue colour which is perfect for the summer time as it is getting warmer and when I am wearing all black or all white or monochrome, it adds the bit of colour I was missing. It stays on really well and dries quite quickly as well. I put my hands through hell at work with having to peel things off and pick at things my nails go through alot! This is really good at not chipping away but after 3 days it does start to chip. Although for it only being £3 I am amazed with the results that it gives.

I hope that you enjoyed this review. I am going to try and do more reviews on things that I have enjoyed or not enjoyed and I will see you soon! xx

Nail's Monday #7!

Base Coat!
Block Colour!
Base Coat on Nails!
Block Colour on Nails, 2 coats!
Hi there! So, I haven't done a post like this in ages! But I have the whole week until Saturday off so I thought I would paint my nails something simple but very pretty colour. As a base coat I have used the Sally Hansen Miracle Cure. After that has dried I used a Collection nail polish in 48 Candy Floss. I did 2 coats of this colour and got the block colour. I love this colour because it is a very girly colour. Very pale and very pretty. I love this colour so much and would definitely recommend this colour. What do you think of this colour? Comment down below I would love to hear from you guys. I hope you have a great day and I will see you soon! xx

March Favourites!

Hi there! So, March has come and gone which means that I have loved some more things throughout March. This month there are 6 things that I have loved and they are very mixed! So, lets get started!

The first that I have loved is Kendal Mint Cake. Now you might think that it is mint flavoured cake, but it really isn't. It is a bar of sugar basically. The ingredients of it is Sugar, Glucose syrup, Water and Peppermint Oil. I love it so much. You can get it for brown sugar and White Sugar. If you can go and get some anywhere I highly recommend this. So nearly every week I have been eating this through March.


Back in February when I have my weekend in the Lakes I went into TXMaxx and found a notebook. Now there are a lot of places where you can get good quality notebooks, but TXMaxx is where they get limited stocks in things and when you see it you should really buy it while you can because it is highly likely that you won't find it again. So, I saw this notebook and I have made jottings about blog posts and the content into the blog posts and other silly things in it. It also is about a place I have always wanted to go since I was 10 so a good 7 (nearly 8) years now and that is London. So, its really cute and been so useful through March.


Another thing that I have been eating loads of is Lemon Meringue Pie. Oh my gosh I absolutely love it! It is so tasty and I can not stop eating it. I don't know what it is but it is soooo nice! I just love it! You can get it anywhere and I normally get one and don't share it and I either eat most of it and forget about it in the fridge and have to bin it or I do eat it all myself. I know I shouldn't like most of the things I eat but I can't resist it and I do exercise sometimes, so its alright.
Excuse my fork!
One of the make-up products that I have been using a lot over the past month is the Little Mix Lip Gloss from Jades range. (Surprise, surprise!) It is a pinky colour and it just gives my lips a little bit more shine and makes them look alright even when I can't be bothered with any other make-up on that day. It smells so nice as well, its like a candyfloss smell. Its even sweet and I love it! It is called Jade's Liquid Gloss by Collection in the Little Mix Range. If you are looking for something that will give your lips that extra bit of shine I would go for that its only £1.99 I think.


My next thing is what I have been using to take most of the pictures that go on this blog with my Favourite's and outfit posts. It is my little red digital camera. It is so handy to carry round with me, when I am trying to take pictures outside with someone or even if I get some sudden inspiration. It goes with me everywhere I go! It will also become my vlogging camera when I get my YouTube channel up and running properly. I am excited for that to happen! But yeah I love it and it goes everywhere with me. Even to work which I know I shouldn't but oh well!


My last thing that I have been loving this past month is old songs. Now what I mean by that is songs that I have heard and really liked in the past 17 years. There are some songs that were produced before I was even born but heard and love sooo much! I made a playlist of them all, which I will link here! They are so fun to dance around to and can just put you in a good mood instantly! So, if you need a little pick me up listen to it and you might just get really happy!


So, those are my March Favourites. I hope you enjoyed reading this post! I am thinking of getting my YouTube channel up and running in the middle of June so after my birthday and after I have finished college! This week I am getting my new phone, so I will actually be posting on Instagram more! Along with making outfits on Polyvore. So, you can follow me on those here (for Instagram) and here (for Polyvore). Comment down below if there is any blog posts you would like to see or have tried any of the things I have. I would love to hear from you guys! I will actually be doing a Nails Monday tomorrow woo! So, enjoy the rest of your Sunday and see you soon! xx

Half Finished Photoshoot!

Hi there! So, for college I do a little bit of photography. So for the final major project in that part, I have decided to paint peoples faces as animals and then take the pictures of them. I do not even have a title for this photo shoot. I thought I would tell you all about it though. So, I have 6 people who are going to help me and I have only had time to do one of them. The others I will hopefully do over tomorrow (Friday) and next week. The animals that I am going to do are: Lion, Tiger, Panda, Monkey, Racoon and Black Swan.

I have to say, I am not the best face painter. So, please be nice and don't comment down below that the person doesn't look like a certain animal! I don't want to feel even worse about it, than I already do! So, I present to you. The only animal that I have done so far. The Lion.





I want to thank my friend Nat for being my lion model! She fit what I was looking for right down to the smallest detail. So I am very grateful for that. She also has a photography blog, which you can find here. If you enjoy amazing photography check it out! Feel free to comment down in the comments. If you need to email me, you can contact me at realdreaming1@gmail.com . Also feel free to follow me on Bloglovin, Twitter, Tumblr, Polyvore and Instagram. See you soon! xx

Decisions, Decisions, Decisions.

Hi there! Well I am going to come out and say it, I have been thinking a lot about stuff that I do on my blog and when the giveaway will happen and I have been asking myself a question repeatedly that I would love for you guys to help me with. There are 3 main chunks, so lets get started!

Nail's Monday's.

So if you have been reading my blog and looking back in past posts you will know that I do a thing on Monday called Nail's Monday. Well, as I work now and I am not not aloud to wear anything oter than clear nail polish there I have decided that I am going to show you how to do different nail arts or styles, ever week on a Monday like I would and say if I was wearing nail polish I would go for this and give you a step by step guide. I hate having to not wear nail polish especially when I see these pastels colours and just think I really want to wear that. The problem is that if I wear it I have to take it off a couple of days later and I don't see the point in doing that and forgetting on the day I have work.

Giveaway!

Right now I have no money. Getting this new job is a real change for me because I used to get paid on the night I would work whereas now I get paid monthly. Seeing as I have no money I can't do a giveaway. I know I have promised this but as soon as I am paid and have gotten my phone sorted out and everything I will buy the things for the giveaway and get that sorted. It will be in April so you only have to wait 22ish days, so don't worry I haven't forgotten. More info will be posted about it on the day that I have it sorted out.

YouTube.

Lately with college coming to an end and me knowing that I am not going to get an apprenticeship no matter how hard I try with getting them, I will need something to do on my days off from work apart from sleeping. So, I thought about doing a YouTube channel. This is where I want to get you guys involved. Comment down below or tweet me or send me a message on Tumblr or Polyvore, whether you think I should do it or not and whether you would watch them or not. I really want to know before I do all of this work for my first video which is my Final Major Project for college, because I will have to make a totally different sequence for it.So, please comment, tweet, message me I want to know your views on this.

So, that's all I have to inform you on. Please help me out it would mean a lot. Feel free to comment down in the comments. If you need to email me, you can contact me at realdreaming1@gmail.com . Also feel free to follow me on Bloglovin, Twitter, Tumblr, Polyvore and Instagram. See you soon! xx

Nails Monday #6!

Hi there! So it is Monday which means I have decided to do my nails. So I only used two nail polishes which means I haven't done anything fancy to my nails. It is spring now. Well in my head it is! So, I thought it was reasonable to but on more bright colours than the darker colours I have been using during Autumn/Winter. So I started off by painting my nails with the Sally Hansen Miracle Cure and used that as a base coat.



Then I got my nail file and filed my nails into the shapes that I wanted and filed them down all to relatively the same size.



Then I got my Bourjois Nail Polish that I got in a set for Christmas. It has no name or number on it. Sorry! So I applied one coat onto my nails of this colour. The colour is kind of a coral/orange colour and is a perfect colour for spring. I haven't tried a Bourjois nail polish, so I will try it out and see how it is.



So after seeing the colour after just one coat I thought I would add another coat just to make sure that I have a solid colour and see how well my nails look after about a week and see if it chips.


After I had done that I put on a top coat of the Sally Hansen Nail Polish. I didn't take a picture of that because its just a glossy version of the picture above. So that's what my nails are like this week. Expect a lot of posts this week at least one everyday hopefully! So look forward to that! Just want to remind you all that once I reach 100 followers on my blog I will be doing a giveaway!

What do you think of the colour I have on my nails? Have any of you tried a Bourjois Nail Polish? Are any of you thinking its Spring already? Feel free to comment down in the comments. If you need to email me, you can contact me at realdreaming1@gmail.com . Also feel free to follow me on Bloglovin, Twitter, Tumblr, Polyvore and Instagram. See you soon! xx

February Favourites.

Hi there! So, it is the last day of February, so at college it is getting more intense and drawing ever closer to the end of the year and the end of college for ever! Although I might be freaking out about my life after college, or college in general I have managed to find a few things that I have loved throughout February and thought I would share them with you.

The first thing I have been loving is a lip balm. Surprise, surprise. I have heard about Carmex and have been told it is really good but I have never tried it before. So I bought one and I love it so much! It has kept my lips really hydrated and it makes my lips tingle and I love that feeling so much.


The second thing I have been loving is any Barry M product. If you have read my Nails Monday I use a lot of Barry M nail paints. I love them so much! If you have ever thought about buying a Barry M nail paint get one. I would recommend them so much!


The third thing I have been loving is a American group called Pentatonix. They are an acapella group, which makes all the drums and backing beat from there voices. They are amazing! I was going to go and see them in Manchester but I have no-one to go with and I have college the next day so I would be dead, the next day. I have gotten into them a lot over the past couple of months, so I love them a lot.


The fourth and last thing I have loved this month and will always love it, is Gossip Girl. I am season 3 and have only been watching it for about a month now. I love it so much! So, definitely watch that! You will not regret it.

Have you watched or used any of the things I have loved this month? What have you loved this month? I want to remind you all that as soon as I get to 100 followers on my blog I will be doing a giveaway. Feel free to comment down in the comments. If you need to email me, you can contact me at realdreaming1@gmail.com . Also feel free to follow me on Bloglovin, Twitter, Tumblr, Polyvore and Instagram. See you soon! xx

A very late Nails Monday #5!

Hi there! So, I didn't do the Nails Monday on a Monday. I am aware of this! But with college drawing to an end I have honestly not had the time to do the blog post! I have loads of work and deadlines to meet, so I did my nail last night and I am planning on doing the rest tonight. So, if you didn't know I am british and the Brits were this past week. I was super happy for One Direction for winning 2 awards and all the other artists. They definitely deserved them and I hope they enjoyed the celebrations. Why/how does this link in with my nails? I hear you ask. Well, my nails this week is a union jack design. I warn you now, I have not took pictures of all the steps and they start off as a bit blurry and then end as quite clear pictures. So here we go!
I'm sorry its so blurry!
So I started off with filing my nails into the shape I wanted and smoothing out any ridges that my nail had. I then applied the Sally Hansen Miracle Cure to my nails. (I will be doing a review on this nail polish very soon.) After that had dried very quickly, I used the Gelly Shine Nail Polish from Barry M in the colour Blood Orange in 347, to paint a cross over the whole nail. As you can see. The only tool I used for this is the brush end of my nail tool.

After I had done this, I got the Barry M nail paint in Matt White in 66. I outlined the red lines I had already painted onto my nails. Then I got the Gelly Shine Nail Polish that I used before and painted on 4 diagonal lines from each corner of the cross in the middle of the nail.



After I had painted that on, I outlined the new red lines with the white nail polish again. After all of that had been done, I got the Gelly Shine Nail Polish from Barry M in the colour Blue Grape in 402. In the spaces that had no colour on, I filled in with the nail polish as the blue on a Union Jack Flag. Even if I do say so myself, I think it looks very cute. I have never done this type of nail art before, so this was a first for me as well.

What do you think of this Nail Art? Do you use a lot of Barry M nail polishes? What do you think of the Barry M range? I just want to remind you all that as soon as I reached 100 followers on this blog I will be doing a giveaway! So thank you for sticking by, while I have had the very busy college work week. Feel free to comment down in the comments. If you need to email me, you can contact me at realdreaming1@gmail.com .

Hair fail!

Hi there! So if you read my post on Friday you will know that I tried the colour b4 stuff on my hair and it didn't do much. So, I went out today and got another box. I put it on my hair and lets put it this way. I am not blonde or black or dark brown. It didn't exactly work out how I thought it would. Why I decided to do this a day before college and so late in the day as well. I have no idea but I have learnt my lesson. I am going to have to live with it until it all grows out or I can get it sorted by the hairdressers.

It didn't go the colour I expected.
I don't know how I feel about this.
So that's all for today. My hair will get sorted but only when I can stand wearing my hair down. Its just not a me colour. I don't have a problem with people with this hair colour because they suit it. However, I don't think I do. There will be a post on Monday about my nails, like there should have been today. Sorry college work comes first. Also I should have some orders being delivered for me soon! I hope you have had a successful and happy Monday. Feel free to comment down in the comments. If you need to email me, you can contact me at realdreaming1@gmail.com . Also feel free to follow me on Bloglovin, Twitter, Tumblr, Polyvore and Instagram. See you soon! xx

Saturday!

It is such a nice day outside!
I can go out yay!
No I can't I'm babysitting at 6
Very late breakfast at 12.
The coffee maker!
My fancy coffee!
My cereals in a bowl!
Film!
Hi there! I know the day has only just started for me but I have done a couple of things already. So, before babysitting I thought I would post about something. Anything! Although I started to watch this film on Netflix, and its called Cyberbully. I will eventually get to that but I will tell you what I have done first.

So, I woke up and saw how beautiful it is outside and got really happy. But then I remembered that I was working at 6, so there was no point in going out. Although I got myself a bowl of frosted wheat's and then made myself a coffee with the Tassimo machine my brother got my mum and dad for Christmas! Its is so good.

I went on Netflix's for something to watch and found a film called Cyberbully. So, I decided to watch it. It is such a good film. It makes you realise about cyber bullying and the effects it has on people. It is really hard hitting and really makes you realise how serious it can get. I was in tears near the end of it and it made me think why anyone would ever do that to someone, when it could push them so far to kill themselves. Why should it ever happen to anyone is beyond me as well. It is so hard hitting. If you want to see the film and see how much it can effect someone, I would recommend watching it. You might cry and it might hit you hard but you can see what damage it can do to someone. I know this is a sensitive subject. That is why I would tell people to watch it, so they become more self aware of the subject. You might roll your eyes when being told about it in school but it is a serious matter. So watch it if you want.

Have you ever seen the film I'm talking about? Have you ever been bullied online? Have you ever seen someone being bullied online? Feel free to comment down in the comments. If you need to email me, you can contact me at realdreaming1@gmail.com . Also feel free to follow me on Bloglovin, Twitter, Tumblr, Polyvore and Instagram. See you soon! xx

Decisions and hair colour removal?

The Box of Doom!
Footloose.
It is on my hair, I was scared it was going to go wrong.
Close up of it on my hair.
I have to say I look like I have a cape.
The dried version. Does it look different?
Studying...
The little presents my parents gave me.
Hi there! So today was an interesting day to say the least! I woke up at 11 o'clock woo!! And had to clear up the front room! My parents were coming back today and I needed to get some breakfast anyway. So after doing that I cluttered up my parents bed with everything I wanted to do. So, I decided to read the instructions of the hair colour removal thing while watching the newer version of Footloose. When I was half way through Footloose I decided to start on my hair. I did everything by the instructions and then washed it out. As I had dried it, the time had become 3 o'clock. Where does the time go? My hair doesn't look any different in photos but it is a little lighter than it was. I think I need to try it again with another box for it. I decided to make a start on the college work, I hadn't even started on and did a little bit of work on it. My parents came back and gave me three little presents. They got me a box of One Direction tissues, A big bag of solid chocolate eggs with penguins on the wrappers and a bar of Kendal Mint Cake! They are too nice!

My decision that I am trying to make is whether to start make YouTube videos now or after I finish college. I would really love to hear your opinions on this. What do you think? Also do you think my hair looks different? I would love to hear from you guys! I will not be posting tomorrow because I am babysitting at someone else's house and I won't have internet. Remember once I get to 100 followers there will be a little giveaway, so remember that! Feel free to comment down in the comments. If you need to email me, you can contact me at realdreaming1@gmail.com . Also feel free to follow me on Bloglovin, Twitter, Tumblr, Polyvore and Instagram. See you soon! xx

Thursday, Thursday, Thursday.

Hi there! With keeping up with the posts everyday this week, I thought I would tell you about my day. So, first off I woke up with my cat next to me. Every since I woke up with him next to me we have been inseparable. So for the most of the days he has been cuddling up to me while I have been at home and not out! I have to say at some times I could kill him because of standing on my keyboard of my laptop and turning the screen upside down. Or even making my black jeans have hairs all over them and make them impossible to get off. But when you need cuddles after a rubbish day, he is perfect to cuddle with.


So after saying goodbye to him, I decided to go out to town and all I can say is that I spent about £20 odd pounds on stuff in town. £7 in Primark. £7 odd in Boots and then £5.50 on subway. What can I say? I was hungry! A girl does need to eat! After picking up some of the beauty things I needed from Primark, I realised I should have really gotten a basket. But at least I didn't drop anything while I was standing in line. RESULT!Although I have put money in the bank and haven't touched it, so I guess you could say I do spend a lot but I do also save! Just not very often.


So after getting a taxi home and eating my subway on the sofa. I watched Wild Child and started to watch Burlesque. I hadn't seen Burlesque ever so I thought I should watch it. Although I started to watch it and then remembered that Greg James was on the radio, on radio 1! So, I turned on the TV and started to listen to him and fell asleep for two hours surprise, surprise. If my cat hadn't jumped on the paper bag with all of my purchases today in, I could have slept for another hour.



So then both I watched the rest of Burlesque I thought the only way to spend it is to get loads of food to snack on while watching the movie. So, I grabbed a packet of crisps, fruit pastilles, chocolate biscuit, chewits, time out biscuits and  crackers and butter! Yes very unhealthy but I am going to go on a run tomorrow so it won't be that bad!


After I had finished watching burlesque and an episode of Gossip Girl, I decided to take pictures of everything. Even a few selfies. I warn you now, they aren't all smiles. I can't just take a serious photo. I get that from my dad...





What did you do with your day? Anything more exciting than mine like that is possible? (Note the sarcasm.) Have you spent alot of money or have you saved? Feel free to comment down in the comments.
