Happy New Year!

It's that time of year again where everything feels fresh and new, resolutions for the year ahead are made and everyone is generally quite happy! I love this time of year (despite knowing that Christmas is a whole year away again, boohoo) and I know pretty much everyone says this, but I really want to make this year count! I've had a very up and down year, my big sister got married, I moved into a gorgeous new house, but I've also lost another friend and some other bad bits too. This year, I've decided to make a list and stick to it, and I think I might just blog every time I complete one! Below is my list of new years resolutions! 

• Be more money savvy
  I am a total shopaholic which isn't always ideal when I'm a student on a tight budget. I really want to settle down and instead of splurging, I want to save up for nice things! 
• Diet!!!
  If I'm completely honest, all I've done since the beginning of December is binge eat and not watch what I'm eating at all. It has really gotten out of control so I want to go back to being healthy and leading a healthy lifestyle! I feel good about myself when I do so I can't wait to get that feeling back. 
• Be the best person I can be
  This means being nicer, being more optimistic and just generally being a better person. I handed in a lost iPhone in a taxi ride this morning, that made me feel pretty damn good so I've already started this one! 

These are my main three that I want to fulfill the most! I think these resolutions will make me feel so much better about myself and will generally make me a happier person. I also have a list of smaller resolutions that are not quite as important, but still something I really want to fulfill this year! 

• Blog more
  I generally have a busy lifestyle so I don't always have time to blog. However, I think with a bit more time management to my student schedule I will be able to blog at least once a week. 
• Start recording videos
  This would be on my main resolution list, apart from the fact that I think I will be absolutely rubbish! I really hate my voice on a recording so god knows how I'll be able to watch back a video of myself without cringing and deleting it. We will see, but it would be nice to have a variation of both blog posts and videos! 
• Grow my hair longer!!
  I went through a stage where I was always dying my hair so for about 2 years my hair really didn't grow much at all. I absolutely love having long hair and I love to style it, so as well as growing my hair, I want to get a good set of clip in hair extensions again too. 
• Start a MAC lipstick collection (PROPERLY)
  I've had one or two MAC lipsticks before, and I really love them. There are so many colours that I want and I even have a MAC lipstick wishlist, but sometimes I can't bring myself to spend £15 on one lipstick, but since I'm being money savvy now (wink) I recon that this is very doable. 

And that's all my resolutions for the year! I really hope you enjoyed this post, and I can't wait to read every body else's new year blog posts too.

I wish you all a happy new year and I hope you all have an amazing year to come! 

Ciao for now, B xx

Merry Christmas!

Hello beautiful people. Although I'm a day late I just wanted to wish you all a very merry Christmas :) and a happy new year! I had an absolutely perfect day yesterday, I spent quality time with the people I love and played lots of games such as bingo, and I was also very lucky enough to receive loads of lovely presents that I am so grateful for. Infact, I received some lovely products that I think I am going to have to review! I am a lucky girl. 

What did you all get up to? :) 

Happy Holidays!

Exciting news!

Hi everyone! Sorry I haven't been writing too much, but I've been very busy! First thing is..I've got a job! I've been desperately searching for a job that doesn't interfere with my uni timetable, and the other day Subway rang me up! I already have 5 shifts sorted and I don't even have my contract yet..happy days! It took a while to get a decent enough job, and it was worth the wait. Free salad..mmm :) 

Another piece of exciting news is that I've joined slimming world! If you are in or have been in a really happy and settled relationship, you will know that you get into the routine of just eating. All the time. Restaurants  nights in with loads of food..I've piled the weight on and I really miss my healthy lifestyle. My big sister is getting married in a few months and as you all know I've recently got engaged so I want to look my best when my sisters big day and my big day come around. It's been a week since I joined and tonight is my first weigh in, I'll keep you posted if I've lost any! 

More beauty reviews to come tonight btw guys! 

Ciao for now! .x.
