Blogmas Day 9: Christmas Gift Guide For Her

Hey Guys!

⭐Welcome to Day Nine of Blogmas ⭐

Christmas shopping. Some people love it, some hate it. The worst is when you've got several people to buy for and have absolutely no idea what to get them. So, I'm here to help you out in your time of crisis!

For Day Nine I wanted to give you guys a 'gift guide for her' whether it be inspiration and ideas for your mums, sisters, girlfriends, daughters or friends. I'm not perfect at buying gifts and I always struggle to come up with ideas, so I wanted to give you guys some tips as I know I'm not the only one who struggles to buy for people! 

Let's Begin!

Firstly, when deciding what to buy someone decide on your budget. Is it just a £5 secret Santa or is the amount of money you spend on the gift not important? Decide the financial aspect first and then decide next what you want to get them. That way you won't go over your budget or buy something out of your price range. 

Every product I've mentioned is linked to the website (I don't earn any commission through these links, I just wanted to make it easier for you to find by providing you with all the links) ❣

Jewellery



Jewellery and Watches - Both jewellery and watches are always great gifts. Jewellery is always sentimental, especially when it has been brought by someone special. I know when I've received jewellery as a gift it always holds sentimental value and meaning because someone saw this item and thought of me ❤

Pandora and Thomas Sabo have something for everyone and they have such an extensive range of rings, bracelets, necklaces and earrings. Pandora is very popular this time of year especially as they are a very popular brand amongst us women. So, if you know someone who loves Pandora, Thomas Sabo or  Swarovski I highly recommend a Pandora ring (they are always really popular - I have four), a Thomas Sabo charms bracelet as they are always a great present to give someone you care about or a Swarovski necklace (their pendants are beautiful). 


Another great gift for Christmas are watches. I personally received a watch for my 18th birthday and haven't taken it off since. So, if you know anyone who's watch needs upgrading or they need a watch in general (they may be bad at time keeping haha!) then check out brands such as Bering, TISSOT, Olivia Burton, Radley and Seksy. There are so many other great watch brands but these are just a few I personally recommend. They have both practicality and style. 

Perfume and Fragrance Gift Sets 



Fragrances are always a popular Christmas gift. I have received perfume a lot at Christmas and I personally think it is a great gift! Perfume is a gift that most women love to receive and is something we always use and are always running out of. Even if we've got three perfumes already we always love new fragrances to try out ❤


Pink Sand is a Canary Islands/Spanish brand available at Fund Grube, however, I am unsure if it is actually available here in the UK as I bought it while I was in Lanzarote. However, there are plenty of great perfumes you can buy for your loved ones this Christmas. Several brands are doing Christmas special perfumes such as Chanel releasing a limited-edition bottle of Chanel N°5 Eau du Parfum the Red Edition available at John Lewis & Partners for £130, where instead of the usual bottle they have switched it for a ruby red for Christmas. Jean Paul Gaultier has also done something very similar and has changed their Classique packaging for something more festive, so the Classique Collector EDT Spray now has a snow globe theme where the iconic clear glass bust is now dressed in a Christmas dress embezzled with snowflakes. It is available for £56.52 at John Lewis & Partners. So, if you are looking for a fragrance that shouts Christmas then check out these two! 


Shawn Mendes Signature may look like a male's fragrance but it is actually a unisex perfume. I've used it and so has my housemate who is a male. It doesn't have a very predominant female and male scent. It's a very neutral fragrance that anyone can enjoy. So, if you know anyone who is a fan of Shawn Mendes then his Signature fragrance gift set would be perfect! You can get it in Boots for £13.33. Other fragrance gift sets I recommend are Marc Jacobs Daisy Love Gift set for £55 in Boots and Gucci's Bamboo Gift Set for £49. 


Gift sets are always a nice gift to get friends, co-workers, cousins and most girlie relatives as you can never go wrong! Boots and Superdrug both have great gift sets up for grabs this year with Soap & Glory, Ted Baker, Sanctuary, Joules and even Harry Potter gift sets now ❤ Here is the Jack Wills Gift Set with three different body sprays including English Velvet, Hope Cover and Signature which retails at around £10 at Jack Wills and Boots. 

I received these as a gift also, so if you need to buy a gift for a sister-in-law, boyfriend's sister, secret Santa or as part of a bigger present then these are great! 

Body/ Skin Care



You can never go wrong with Soap & Glory as either an individual gift or gift sets! I know a lot of people receive Soap & Glory as secret Santa gifts, even myself and I've never been disappointed with any Soap & Glory gift I've received. As an adult, I love receiving body care/skincare gift sets as it means I don't have to go and buy them myself. It is always nice to receive them from somebody else. Soap & Glory isn't a cheap present either so if you are struggling for gift ideas then head to Boots and check out their 3 for 2 deals on Soap & Glory, Ted Baker, Sanctuary, Jack Wills, Joules and many more brands!

Pyjamas



Pyjamas are always a great Christmas gift! Especially if you family open one gift on Christmas Eve as these will be perfect for a friend, relative or significant other to wear on the night before Christmas! I've received a few pairs of pyjamas at Christmas and they have been some of the best gifts I've received ❤

Primark has some adorable pyjamas at the moment, including Disney, Friends and Harry Potter themed sets! If you know someone who loves Disney or is obsessed with Friends and pyjamas then this would be a great gift. They are so soft and look so cute on. I got this pair of Disney Miss Bunny pyjamas for £14 from Primark and I might end up buying myself some more over the Christmas holidays as they are just so cute and comfy! 

Primark is also doing some great Christmas themed pyjamas with all the festive colours and characters (including The Grinch), so if you want a family set of pyjamas or something more festive then check them out here. 

Bags 



Handbags, travel bags and cute little purses are a nice gift for someone special ❤

These bucket bags from Primark are great! I got mine a while ago but it has never let me down! It is a smallish bag but it actually fits so much inside. What I love is the chain handle instead of a normal handle. It adds something different to the bag and makes it more of a statement piece. This is a great gift for someone who needs to upgrade their day to day bag or if you know someone who needs a casual going out bag and likes a bag with a lot of room and zip.

If you are looking for a bag a bit bigger then check out River Island's website. They have some really cute bags for around £30. Check them out here. I've always found River Island's bag great quality and worth the price. So, if you are willing to spend a little more go and have a browse through their collection, they have so many to choose from!

Blogmas Day 5: My Christmas Wish List

Hey Guys!

⭐Welcome to Day Five of Blogmas ⭐

I can't believe how quickly Blogmas 2018 is flying by! I have so much fun content coming out soon so look out for Winter Tags, gift guides, Christmas markets and lots more! 

When it comes to Christmas everyone secretly has a wish list of things they would like to receive, and sometimes people struggle to come up with ideas when people ask them what they want, so I thought I'd share my Christmas wish list with you and you might be able to get some inspiration for when your loved ones ask you what you'd like. Or even if you want to treat yourself this Christmas and buy it for yourself (got to have a bit of self-love!) ❤

Normally I don't have a big wish list for Christmas as I'm not so bothered about Christmas presents now that I'm older. I prefer buying gifts for people and giving it to them than I do receiving from other people. Which is why I'm so excited for all the secret Santas I'm doing this year with my friends, housemates and blogger secret Santa ❤ But, I do have a wish list this year because there are so many great films, box sets, books and cute things out at the moment that it is hard not to ask for them!

Crazy Rich Asians DVD 


Photo Credit: Amazon

In October I went and saw Crazy Rich Asians in the cinema and I absolutely loved it! I'd already watched all the trailers and listened to all the interviews, so when I finally got to see the film I was so excited! 

It is such a great feel-good movie, with humour and heartfelt moments! Firstly Nick Young is gorgeous!  Awkwafina is hilarious as Peik Lin Goh and Constance Wu from Fresh Off The Boat is so good as Rachel Chu. In fact, they did a great job with casting. It is one of those films that I'll be watching over and over again (kind of like when I first got Mamma Mia and I constantly watched it on repeat) ❤

Crazy Rich Asians Trilogy Boxset by Kevin Kwan


Photo Credit: Amazon

After seeing the film Crazy Rich Asians I'm desperate to get my hands on the book. Seeing as I loved the film I want to give the book a read as sometimes the book always ends up better than the film!

Other than the first book Crazy Rich Asians, there are also two other books belonging to the series. You've got both China Rich Girlfriend and Rich People Problems. So, the trilogy boxset by Kevin Kwan is on my wishlist as well. I would love to get the box set and read the other books that belong to the series! Especially if the books are anything like the film. Also, I would like to get ahead of the game and read the other two books in case they do sequels to Crazy Rich Asians!

If you guys are interested in purchasing the trilogy as well they are on Amazon for £26.99 or if you just want the first book Crazy Rich Asians it's £5.75 on Amazon. If you know someone who has seen the film and loved it as much as me then this would be a great gift idea ❤

Button Down Pyjamas from Primark


Photo Credit: Primark
A few weeks ago when I went to Primark with my parents I picked up a pair of Disney button down pyjamas with Miss Bunny on and they are the cutest pair of pyjamas I have (except my Stitch set!), they are so soft and I'm loving button down pyjamas now. Primark is doing some really cute sets at the moment such as ones that are Harry Potter themed, cactus-themed and some have really cute floral designs. I can't help but stop and look every time I'm in Primark. I thought I'd add them to the Christmas wish list as receiving pyjamas for a Christmas present is always nice. The pyjamas I have received in the past for Christmas have been my favourite ❤

If you know someone who loves buying pyjamas have a look in Primark as they have a great selection at the moment, especially Christmas themed sets ❄

Snug Rug Blanket in Grey

My housemate Sophie has a Snug Rug blanket in navy and it is one of the best creations invented!! I'm always borrowing it when I'm sat watching TV as it gets quite cold in our living room and it is the COSIEST blanket ever! What I love is that it has sleeves so I can be doing uni work on my laptop or reading and not be drowning in my blanket. It makes it so much easier to function while also being warm and cosy. There are so many colours to choose from as well! 

If you know anyone that gets really cold and needs the softest blanket but also functionality then get them this. The quality is great ❤

Victoria: A Royal Love Affair by Daisy Goodwin and Sarah Sheridan

Photo Credit: Amazon

I saw the Victoria: A Royal Love Affair in WHSmith ages ago and wanted to buy it then and there but didn't get the chance. The book explores the sets, facts and fiction, costumes, letters written by Queen Victoria, diary entries from Albert and Victoria,  profiles of all the major characters, interviews with the actors and fascinating, in-depth information on the production. I'm fascinated with books like these, especially when I'm really into the series because I like to know more about the show and more about the history. I've already got a book similar to this one but on Downton Abbey, where it details the sets, characters, costumes of the times and the history of Highclere Castle. So, to have another book on my favourite historical drama series would make me very happy! 

Victoria (ITV) Series 1 & 2 Box Set


Photo Credit: Amazon

I love a historical drama! When Downton Abbey came out a few years ago I was absolutely obsessed to the point I got the box set, a book on behind the scenes info, pictures and costumes and visited Highclere Castle. So, when ITV created Victoria I fell in love with the series, especially as I love anything about Victoria and Albert. Any historical dramas around royals I love watching. Since I'm so invested in the Victoria series I'd love to receive the box set, so least then I can re-watch it as many times as I want! I love going back to the old series and re-watching them again and again. I'd love to add the DVD to the rest of my historical drama boxsets! 

Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again


Photo Credit: Amazon

If you haven't seen Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again you are missing out! It is hands down the movie of the year for me. I went to the cinema with my auntie back in summer to watch the new movie and I've been obsessed since! I played the soundtrack every day for at least two weeks straight after watching it, so now it's on DVD I need it so I can watch it over and over again. When I got bought the first Mamma Mia movie I would watch it while getting ready for school nearly every day, so with the second movie now out in shops I must have it haha!

If you are a die-hard fan of ABBA and love the Mamma Mia movies then why not treat yourself to the new DVD! It is in most entertainment shops and supermarkets for around £10!

A Beautiful Mind, a Beautiful Life: The Bubz Guide to Being Unstoppable by Lindy Tsang


Photo Credit: Amazon

If you don't know who Lindy Tsang is she is a Beauty Guru YouTuber/Vlogger of family life and has been on YouTube for quite a while. Lindy is a huge source of positivity and happiness so when she released a book I had to get a copy. Unfortunately, it was released by Barnes and Noble in America first and I never got a chance to buy it. I've heard amazing reviews from others who have already read it and I have wanted this book for so long, so now it is on Amazon I'd love to get a copy! ❤

The Greatest Showman


Photo Credit: Amazon

The Greatest Showman came out quite a while ago and even now there is the new Greatest Showman: Reimagined album but it is still a musical I haven't stopped loving! I'm always listening to the playlist while I'm doing my uni work and writing posts for my blog, so I wanted to add the film to my wish list. I'm a huge lover of musicals ever since I watched Funny Girl featuring Barbara Streisand when I was younger. One thing I can't fault with this movie/musical are the songs!  

If you have a friend or relative that loves it too why not treat them to the DVD this Christmas ❤

⭐⭐⭐

What is on your wish list for Christmas this year? Let me know in the comments below!

See you tomorrow for Day Six of Blogmas ❤

My Night Time Summer Skincare Routine | 2017

Hey Guys!

Over the past couple of months I have switched up my night time skin care routine
 a bit as I began to notice my skin gradually getting dry around my eyebrows and cheeks. I had also collected a few more products to give a try so I worked them into my skin care routine to see if they would work with the condition of my skin. 

Lets get started!

#1 Micellar Water

I've used Garnier's micellar water products before so I knew they would work out for me when removing my make up, especially stubborn products like mascara and eyeliner. I love that it is so pure and basic but is perfect at removing all the impurities, oil and make up I've worn all day. It is definetley a go to product! I even buy the cute little travel version when I go on holiday as its just so convenient! 


Sometimes if I just need to focus a little more on the removal of my eye make up because my eye shadow or eyeliner is a little stubborn I use the Nivea Daily Essentials Extra Gentle Make Up Remover. But the only thing I don't particularly like with this make up remover is that sometimes it stings and makes my eyes really sore, which doesn't seem right if it is suppose to be a product focusing on your eye area and states that it is 'extra gentle'. It isn't every time but it has happened to catch me out and basically blind me for a few seconds! But it works when I need it to so I'll continue to use it haha!


#2 Cleaner/ Scrub

In the evening I use my Simple Foam Cleanser as its great at removing the rest of my make up that was missed in the previous step. It is really gentle and soft, which is perfect as I tend not to use a really harsh scrub before applying a detox face mask and its been doing great wonders for my skin. Since using this product my skin has started to get much softer and brighter. When I wake up in the morning my skin isn't as patchy and I don't have any red inflammation which I used to experience when using other face scrubs and cleansers. At the moment I'm trying to be more delicate with my skin and treat it better so a gentle cleanser is always a good product to turn to ♡ 


#3 Face Mask

I've mentioned this face mask a few times now on my blog and it is still an amazing product! I don't use it every time I cleanse my face, only three times a week as using it every time would stress my skin out a bit too much and I don't want to use it excessively. As you might be able to tell I've finished all of it and will need to look for another face mask to use next, but I highly recommend the Pure Clay Purity Mask for it has helped clear my acne prone areas like my cheeks and jaw line. It does run out quite quickly though considering you are suppose to use it three times a week! 


#4 Serum/ Treatment Oil

I've been using this Serum for the longest time and I've always loved the results so I've never bothered trying anything new or a different brand. I probably will in the future when I'm in the experimenting mood but at the moment I'm happy with what it does for me! I like using a serum as it retains more moisture which is great for my dry skin. And it has anti-wrinkle remedies in it, and I know I'm only 19 but prevention is key and I have terrible terrible frown lines on my forehead so anything that will help reduce those I try haha!


#5 Night Cream

I've used this night cream for a while now and it is quite a thick night cream which some people aren't a fan of as it takes a lot longer to soak in and be absorbed by the skin, but for the evening I tend to put on a thicker cream so that my skin can absorb a greater amount of moisture while I sleep. They do say that between 10pm and 2am your skin is at its best healing point and so that is the time you should be applying products to be absorbed and getting a good night sleep. I'm not sure how true it is but I don't mind going to sleep a bit earlier now that I actually have things to do this summer :) 


#6 Eye Cream

This is one of the new products I had picked up and wanted to try! I have been using a few Lacura products for a while now, especially their serum. So, considering  this is a product from the same range I thought I'd see if it worked for me. So, after incorporating it into my skincare routine for around two weeks now I've began to really like it. It is a gel so it has a very sticky texture but after application give it about two minutes and it is fully absorbed and doesn't leave a sticky residue around the eye. You only need a really small amount as well so this small tub should last me a while! 


When it is officially Autumn I'll probably end up switching my skincare routine up again as my skin will probably get a lot of dry patches so I'll have to tailor what products I use to deal with that problem! Is anybody else looking forward to Autumn already?

What is your go to product when you get really dry patches on your skin? Let me know in the comments below!

See you tomorrow lovelies! ♡

Boots Beauty and Vitamin Haul

Hey Guys!

On Sunday I went to Boots to replace some products that were now empty but I brought more than I should have haha! I only went for foundation and a new face wash but I came out with some vitamins and micellar water as well ♡ There were some great deals in Boots, so if your wanting to save some money there are some offers worth going in for! 


Simple Kind To Skin: Vital Vitamin Foaming Cleanser

I haven't used any Simple products for ages as I had a weird allergic reaction to their sensitive moisturiser, hence I was put off and moved on to Nivea and Garnier, but after a few years and a great deal in Boots I thought it was time to try their products out again. So I picked up their foaming cleanser to try something new :) Most face wash products I use are a gel type consistency or scrub so I look forward to trying it ♡ 


Multivitamins With Iron

This was an unplanned purchase but I'm glad I was able to find the right type of vitamins after thinking about it for a while. Me and my mum have been discussing different types of multivitamins to take as I'm determined to become healthier and taking some supplements will help support my diet and help with my iron, B12 and Vitamin C intake :) So after looking at the various amounts of different supplements and combinations I was able to find one that will hopefully work for me :)

Garnier Skin Active: Micellar Cleansing Water 

I've used Garnier's Micellar Water for so long and have always had great results with my skin, so when it was on offer for £1 in Boots it was a must buy! I love their Micellar Water as its the best I've tried for removing both my base and eye make up ♡ and it doesn't leave a greasy or sticky feeling afterwards! For £1 who is gonna say no haha :p


Bourjois Paris: Healthy Mix Anti- Fatigue Foundation

I've used a few of Bourjois foundations and have loved all of them! The Anti-Fatigue formula I haven't tried before, so when I couldn't find the one I've been using the past year I thought I'd give this one a go :) I look forward to trying it as I've never been disappointed with any Bourjois's foundations! One thing I love about their formula is that they have great coverage and it lasts for so long ♡ 

I might do a few first impression posts for you guys in the next coming weeks! So look out for them :)

See you on Wednesday my lovelies! ♡

April Favourites | 2017

Hey Guys!

I haven't done a favourites post since February so I thought another one was due to be posted! I'm always buying the same things and not really experimenting with new products but this month I brought a few new products that I haven't used before, so I thought I would share what I've been loving! I also watched a lot of films this month while I was back home for Easter break which I was loving, you'll find out which ones are my favourite below ❤ 

Lacura Caviar Illumination: Day Cream SPF 15
While on holiday in Cornwall in the Easter break I decided not to wear make up so that I could give my face a break and seeing as it was great weather it would help detox my skin and give it some Vitamin D, but stupidly on the Thursday I forgot to put on sun cream and while we were sat in a beer garden soaking up the sun I burnt my entire forehead! But only my forehead and the bridge of my nose, nowhere else haha! So I looked ridiculous for a couple of days. Then I realised that when I wear my foundation it has SPF in the formula so I'm covered but when I'm having no make up days and have a bare face I'm not protecting my skin enough from the sun rays. So, I mentioned this to my dad and when we got back home he was able to find this range of products that has Caviar extract in the formula which is great for regenerating the skin, and also great for reducing signs of anti-ageing which would help heal my damaged skin! But the best part of this range is that the day moisturiser had SPF in the ingredients so when I'm having a bare face day and just applying moisturiser I'm still covered against the suns rays! Which has been a lifesaver :) I do have normal sun cream but I find it makes my face even more greasy than it is and if I use it for a base under my make up the foundation and concealer don't sit properly and it just ends up becoming a layer of oil haha! So thankfully now I have a daily moisturiser that I can wear with or without my make up and I'll be protected from the unpredictable weather we have here in the UK! ♡ 

I love that this day cream isn't really thick that its too hard to apply around my face but isn't really watery so that it just makes my oily complexion worse! It appears to be the best consistency and only a small amount is needed for the best coverage!

Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge
I've used this sponge for as long as I can remember and it has always given me a flawless finish and my foundation application is so much easier using a sponge instead of a brush! So after my last beauty blender unfortunately needed throwing away it was time to repurchase another one :) Even though there are other brands out there I will always go back to Real Techniques, I have never once been disappointed in any of their products and seeing as they do the best job at blending out my base make up I don't need to try out any other products! This sponge has been my lifesaver and has never let me down so I thought I should include it in my favourites at least once ♡ 

Boots Essentials Lip Salve| Original SPF 15
While I was on holiday in Cornwall with my parents and Billy I was suffering with cracked lips a lot and I was picking at all the dry skin forming which obviously made my lips bleed. At the moment I'm always biting my lips or picking at the dry skin (it must be something related to stress or something like that!). So, while we were in Bude strolling around the shops I thought it would be best if I brought a lip-balm I could keep in my pocket or in my bag so whenever I was picking at the dry skin I could moisturise them :) Luckily with this lip-balm it has SPF formula as well which was an added bonus considering I managed to burn my face while we were in Cornwall! Least my lips were protected I guess haha :p Ever since getting back from my holiday and coming back to uni I've been using it every day and its currently a bedside table essential and part of my make up routine ♡ 

The formula is so creamy and moisturising without leaving your lips and mouth looking greasy. Some lip-balms I've used are good but they only moisturise my lips for a short period of time and so my lips end up getting dry again and then I give up at that point but thankfully this lip-balm is very long lasting and even though I have still been picking at my lips and breaking the skin it is helping make some improvements slowly! But I love how the formula isn't greasy and I'm not having to top up or re-apply every 10 minutes. Another bonus to this product as well is that the applicator is a stick roll on lip balm ♡ It wasn't expensive and does the job! Just shows not all branded products are the best, sometimes the own brand products work better!

Allied 
I saw the trailer for Allied ages ago and I wanted to go see it in cinema but was so busy with uni work that I never got chance so finally when we had our Easter break I had the opportunity to watch a bunch of films I'd been dying to see! Allied was on the top of my list and seeing as I love war period films I watched a few other films similar like Birdsong, and The Atonement. 

Seeing as Brad Pitt featured in the film I expected it to be great but it excelled by expectations! It was a lot more dramatic and action packed than I thought it would be and I loved how it wasn't just all based on fighting in the war but also the lives of those living in England during the Blitz. The ending was so unexpected as well (I don't want to give any spoilers away) but there are many plot twists that you would't think of! Brad Pitt is a great actor for war period films, especially in Fury, Inglorious Bastards and now Allied ❤ 

Pearl Harbour
Pearl Harbor has been on my list for so long and finally I had the chance to watch it when I went back home! It is a very long film so you have to have a lot of spare time but it is the best film I have seen based on World War 2 other than Fury and Saving Private Ryan! Its a very emotional film and tears were shed but it is just so overwhelming and Ben Affleck does not disappoint in his protagonist role! Considering this film was based on true facts and history it makes you appreciate the film a whole lot more and realise the disastrous outcomes of the bombing of Pearl Habor! If you like history and films based on events in the war this film is for you!

Strong Woman Do Bong Soon
I'm always including Korean dramas in my favourite posts but recently there have been some great shows being produced! Some kdramas can be really slow and take a while to get interesting and get to the point of the story line but the last couple of dramas I've been watching have been great! Strong Woman Do Bong Soon has been very popular, highly rated and it has not disappointed! The plot of the story is very action packed and there is always something new and exciting happening which is why none of the episodes are lacking or boring! 

Some of the characters have great personalities and I love that its has a mix of humour, mystery and seriousness through the series. Some dramas are too serious and don't add a bright side which is why I love that in this drama they have a comical side, especially with the character 'Gristle'! ❤ 

Guardians of The Galaxy: Vol. 2
My flat mates and I went to the midnight release of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.2 and it was the best decision ever! It was amazing and obviously I don't want to give any spoilers away to any of those who haven't seen it yet but you won't be disappointed and the soundtrack is such a great selection of songs ❤ If you loved the first movie you will not be disappointed! Baby Groot was my favourite :)

Rumor |  K.A.R.D
By now you will know that I like a lot of K.A.R.D's music and its always on one of my playlists and in my favourites list, so it isn't a surprise that another one of their songs is mentioned in my favourites post haha! So far they have realised three singles; Oh Na Na, Don't Recall and now Rumor so they haven't released any mini albums or anything yet but they are definitely doing well with the three singles they have released! They are different style of K-pop that I love ❤ they aren't like a lot of other groups that I listen to and I like that the group is mixed so you get a mix of vocals! They are also great at incorporating rap into their tracks and it fits in without sounding abnormal :) What I love most about their songs is that they are all really upbeat and stimulating so you always feel the need to move along to the track ❤ This track is a little different to their first two singles as they have incorporated a lot more rap into this ensemble where as the other two had mainly vocals but its still great!

Blue Moon | Hyolyn x Changmo
Hopefully it will be summer soon here in England and everyone loves a good summer tune to add to the playlist and this is definetley one of those songs! When you listen to it you get into such a happy, bright mood and reminds you of the days when it was actually sunny here in the UK haha! Hyolyn has always released good songs whether solo or with Sistar! If you like upbeat summery tunes for your playlist give this song a listen! ❤ 

Really Really | WINNER
I've never really been into Winner and always preferred other boy groups but now that they are four members and have re-debuted as a four member group there music is awesome! 'Really Really' is a very summery and upbeat track that has a great dancing beat ❣ it has been very popular and the jolly tune and choreography is very contagious! There other track 'Fool' is great too but it isn't as upbeat as this track! 

Girl on The Train | Paula Hawkins
I haven't finished the book yet, I'm about half way through but it has been great so far! I haven't seen the film yet as I want to read the book before seeing it! The first half has been very uneventful as its setting the foundations of the story but I love the way the story is narrated from different characters perspectives and you see the whole rounded story not just one side! The plot line as well is great, always leaving you in the dark so you have to read on to understand :) its the type where there are little hints and clues but you will never get the full story until the end and I love books like that, always making you ask questions and try and come to a conclusion yourself ❤

What have been your favourites this month? Let me know ❣ 


See you on Wednesday my lovelies!
