What's On My Pandora





I've had my Pandora for a couple of years now. My aunt gave it to me for my 16th birthday and I've only just managed to fill up the first section! I'm not a massive wearer of jewellery but I absolutely love my bracelet and I want to share with you what charms I have on it. I'll do my best to link them up for you too. x

The first two I brought on my 16th were the white and pink daisy clips which I absolutely fell in love with because it was around the time when I was obsessed with the whole daisy print trend (as you'll see from this post). The second one (in from the left) was a present for prom from mum and dad. My bracelet was the only jewellery I wore to prom so it was quite subtle but I love the colours that you can get within in it at different lights. Next to that are three from Harry (I think its quite obvious and I'll link them here, here and here) and they're some of my favourites because I know how personal they are and they're all so different. The little suitcase between those and my daisy clip is another present from mum and dad to say well done for my A2 results and I chose it because it had a mini Eiffel Tower on it (we were going to Paris a few days after) and it represented my love for travel. I think it makes a difference to the hearts and flowers theme, as much as I love my other ones. You can probably see that those filled the first section up between my two clips and now I'm starting the next bit! Harry brought me this very sweet heart shaped charm with 'I love you' engraved on it for our 2 year anniversary and this is the most personal one for me I think.

For my next ones I'll probably either get another spacer or a chain just in case the charms ever decide they want to run away! This one and this one are both really pretty and so is this spacer but we'll see!

What's on your Pandora? I love seeing how other people have made there's up and the different charms they've found!

Blogmas | Day 24 | The Last Day of Blogmas!!



It's the last day of Blogmas! I can't believe how quick this month has gone, it only feels like a few days ago when I decided to do this. I admit, it probably wasn't the best Blogmas that you've seen but I'm pretty impressed with myself for keeping up with it, even if I did miss a few days here and there.

Christmas Eve is usually a time when my family finishes off the presents and just packs in a load of Christmas films and TV, circling what we want to watch on the Radio Times guide, but this year I have to work *sob*. I am literally wishing for a Christmas miracle that we get let off early and I can finally just sit and relax and maybe then I'll feel a little bit more excited.

I just want to say thank you to whoever took the time to give this all a read, I wasn't really expecting anyone to be bothered, let alone me finishing it!

Merry Christmas! I love you all :*

Blogmas | Day 23 | Gingerbread House


One of my favourite parts of Christmas time is taking part in annual traditions that have developed in the family over the years, and one of ours is making a gingerbread house. We started doing it 2 years ago and for some reason Harry and my brother were in charge and it just went a bit tits up. Luckily we've got better over time and I'm quite proud of my little gingerbread house that we made today, not sure if it's Insta-worthy or not but it's Christmas, who cares.

I can't believe it's Christmas Eve tomorrow. I hate to admit it but I really don't feel Christmassy at all. Maybe wearing a Christmas jumper to work, doing some last minute shopping and a pile of Christmas films will do it!

Blogmas | Day 22 | Christmassy Nails

Rimmel London 60 Seconds - 320 Rapid Ruby
AVON Nailwear Pro+ - Golden Vision
OPI Mariah Carey - The Impossible
OPI Mariah Carey - Stay the Night

So, you've got the perfect party dress and the most gorgeous pair of shoes to go with it, but your nails are looking a bit boring and what sounds better than painting on a bit of sparkly nail varnish. Whether  you want to dig deep into your old nail polishes and find a classic bright red or go out and buy a new glittery one, no accessory looks better than a perfectly manicured hand!

I have a pretty big draw full of nail varnishes so I love finding old ones that I used to love and reliving that feeling, such as the OPI Mariah Carey Liquid Sand ones. If you're looking for some new ones though, I've seen some really pretty new Barry M ones (and you get a free Gelly Hi Shine Ruby Limited Edition when you spend £6 in Superdrug) and Models Own have their Chrome collection out too at the moment that look like a great twist on the sparkly nails.

What's your favourite polish to wear at this time of the year?

Blogmas | Day 21 | Reflections On The Year


Looking back at some of these pictures has made me realise how fantastic this year has been. I think I've grown up a lot and made memories that will last forever.

This year has been very education/life/future driven because at 17 you have to start making choices that will head you towards the rest of your life. For example, I've chosen to go to university next year to study Fashion Media/Communication so I spent the year looking around different uni's and now I've got to push myself and drive myself towards getting the grades I need to get into Nottingham Trent. I also started learning to drive this year and although there's a lot of times where I feel like I should give up because right now there's just no point, I have progressed and I passed my theory test with flying colours and who knows, I might just need the skills sooner than I think.

I also went on some fantastic holidays like Manchester and Paris, which I will definitely be going back to one day. It was so hard trying to select the right photographs but whichever ones I show you, it's clear to see that we had a lovely time.

There's been a lot of hatred in the world this year but compared to previous years, I haven't been happier. Although I finally feel like I know where I want to go in life, I'm just going to see where next year takes me. I just want to enjoy myself and make some more memories. I've got my 18th birthday, I'm going to Gran Canaria and a road trip around Europe and I want to pass my driving test, but most importantly I've got Harry, my friends and my family by my side.
