Beauty Haul + First Impressions

I really want to start doing some more beauty posts because I really like makeup so I'm going to start off with a Beauty Haul so I have some new makeup to try out. I wanted to try some really cheap makeup to see how good it actually is so I have some goodies from Collection, Miss Sporty and MUA. I also wanted to do a first impressions so I could actually talk about the product so you know whether to buy it or not.

Collection Lengthening Mascara Waterproof Length & Definition- I've had the normal version of this but I get a lot of headaches where my eyes water so as I like the look of this mascara I thought I would get the waterproof version. It's very natural so it's perfect for school or if you're having a no-makeup, makeup day. The packaging say it's good for a night out but I disagree as it's natural looking and if I was going on a night out I would want a mascara that look like false lashes. Surprisingly it doesn't clump which is amazing for a cheap mascara. The last thing I have to say about this is that it is really fluttery and obviously that's really nice and what I want in a lengthening mascara. 
This was £3.99 from Superdrug

Collection Eyes Uncovered Nude Palette- I picked this up because I've heard a lot of vloggers rave about it and I can totally understand why they have as I love this! The pigmentation is really good, especially the dark shades like Chocolate Milk, Brown Sugar and Espresso. This palette is perfect for everyday as it's got all the shades you need as there is light and darks so light for the base and inner corners and darks for the crease. It's defiantly worth the hype as it's pretty much perfect. My only complaint is that I wish there was a mirror than seeing the shades from the outside as it means it would be perfect for on the go application.
This was £3.99 from Superdrug

Collection Up To 7 Day Wear Nail Polish in 23 Sonic Blue- Collection have so many nail polish shades but I decided to buy this cobalt blue as it's so different from anything I have in my collection and it would look really nice if you want a very bold shade. You need about 2 coats for full colour which is good for a cheap nail polish but you probably would need more if you got a lighter shade. This has a very unusual smell as it smells like sick and  I don't know what it is but something else in this haul also smells like sick?!? This colour will be perfect for summer as it's very different from your usual colours but this is still bright. 
This was £2.99 from Superdrug

Collection Work The Colour Lip Butter in Popping Pink 1- After getting home I realized I picked up a dodgy one as it's messy and the bullet as started to come off after 1 use *insert crying face emoji here* but I do have some impressions on it which are good! The colour is really nice and it's the pink I will always go for however it's not as bright as I thought it was going to be so make sure you look at the testers before you buy because I made that mistake! It's very moisturising as it's a lip butter and it's really pigmented for a lip butter as usually they're clear so these are really different and I also know want to try the red one as I'm loving red lips at the moment. I also like how easy they are to apply as it's a crayon and they're so easy to apply.
This was £2.99 from Superdrug

MUA Eyeshadow Palette- Undressed- I've wanted to get this for ages but my local Superdrug don't stock MUA which is a huge shame as apparently it's really good and I know it's super affordable. This is a dupe for the Naked Palette which I really want to try but it's so expensive and this palette is so good so I might not need to get the Naked palette anymore! However I want to start with a negative because this palette is so hard to open so I struggle for about 5 minutes before I actually open it. Onto the positives as this palette as this palette has 12 gorgeous shades which is a mixture between matte and shimmer which is perfect for every occasion. For £4 this is an amazing palette as the pigmentation is out of this world so everyone go and get this eye palette!
This was £4 from Superdrug  

Collection Waterproof Volumising Mascara- As well as getting the lengthening mascara from Collection, I thought I should get the volumising one as well as I had never tried this one before. Sadly I was actually kind of disappointed as it wasn't very volumising but regardless of that the mascara is actually nice as an everyday mascara and I will definately finish this up as it does look really nice. Just like it's sister the lengthening mascara it doesn't clump which for me is a huge thing which annoys me about mascaras. When I opened this the brush was kinda scary as it's a lot bigger than anything I had tried before but when using it I didn't really mind it.
This was £3.99 from Superdrug

Miss Sporty Insta Glow Foundation in 003 Medium- I wasn't sure whether I was going to like this foundation but I actually really like it so I'm glad I picked this up. It claims to be a 'Photoshop effect foundation' which is too much of a bold statement because I doubt even expensive foundations are going to give you a Photoshop effect. Like with the nail polish from Collection this also smelt like sick which is weird especially as I bought them both in different branches of Superdrug. I applied this with a Beauty Blender dupe and it applied really nicely and was very even.
This was £3.49 from Superdrug

Collection Extreme 24 Hour Felt Tip Liner- I have been looking for this product for a while now so I'm glad I've finally found it and it's really good. It applys really nicely which I wasn't expecting so that's really good. It says to be a 24 hour lasting product but I haven't tried that out as I don't think anyone would wear makeup for 24 hours- I know I couldn't! From now on this is going to be a staple in my makeup bag as I love winged eyeliner and I've found the perfect product for it. 
This was £2.99 from Superdrug

Collection Lasting Colour Lipstick in 6 Cupcake Pink- I've wanted this lipstick for a long time and I actually included it in my Beauty Wishlist last year and I don't know why I hadn't got it sooner but I really like it. It's such a pretty pink and it's very like a Barbie shade of pink and that is the shade of pink I like the best. It's not drying at all but I didn't really expect that to happen as I already have a Lasting Colour lipstick. As I said I already have a Collection Lasting Perfection lipstick and I really like the whole range so now I want to get a red and more pinks from it.
This was £2.99 from Superdrug

Miss Sporty Insta Glow Blusher in 004 Glowing Mauve- I don't really wear that much blush so I wanted to change that and get a really pretty colour that will make me want to wear it more. I picked up this gorgeous pink which does look like scary when you watch it on your finger but when you blend it out on your cheeks it looks really nice and it's wearable as I'm not one for bright makeup, only lipsticks! The actual packaging of the blush is really pretty with the design and it looks like something from Dior or any other high end makeup but the actual pot it comes in does look cheap which is a shame but it does show off the pretty blush.
This was £2.99 from Superdrug

Miss Sporty My BFF Lipstick in 202 My Pretty Rose- I wasn't going to pick up anything else from Miss Sporty but Superdrug was having an offer where if you spent £5 or more on Miss Sporty you got a free My BFF Lipstick and obviously I took advantage of that offer. I picked up this beautiful berry colour which isn't that good for spring but I will have when  Autumn rolls around. The product smells like sweets which is good especially when 2 of the products smell like sick. I'm probably not going to wear this much now but when Autumn comes I'm going to wear this with the Collection eyeliner as I think that will look really nice.
I got this for free in Superdrug but usually this is £2.99

I hope you enjoyed this very long post so I do hope you are here but I really wanted to give a good first impressions and if I really like or end up disliking these products you will sure hear about them again.If you would like more from me follow me on Twitter and Instagram where my username is @_louisecarter_ and I've also been posting a lot on here recently too.

Weekly Reflect- 21/3/16- 27/3/16

So today I'm back with another weekly reflect. I know I did one last week but I thought I would do them for the next couple of weeks whilst I'm on school holidays as hopefully I'll be doing things and having a bit more of an exciting time than at school. The first bit of this post is boring as I was at school but from Wednesday onwards it should be better.

Monday- 21/3/16
Everyone's favourite day of the week! Monday for me was very boring and nothing really stands out for me as all I did was to go to school and come back. Monday at 9am I always have PE at school and seriously it's the worst thing ever and it was table tennis and I'm so bad, especially as I had to play against really good people and the scores were not good.

Food wise I had a jumbo sausage roll for my lunch and it was really nice however I do prefer my sausage rolls to be warm and this was cold as I was at school and obviously I couldn't heat it up. For dinner I had a spaghetti bolognese pasta bake ready meal from Iceland and I really like spaghetti bolognese even though I hate beef. (Don't worry I do always eat breakfast but it was boring)

Tuesday- 22/3/16
Sorry but this day was also really boring (don't worry this is the last boring day). Nothing exciting happened but I did get an Easter egg from Cerys and I have eaten it all now and it was very nice, if you was wondering it was a Dairy Milk with Oreo Easter egg as Cerys knows that's my favourite chocolate bar. If you are wondering what I got Cerys I decided not to get her an egg but loads of mini Easter candies so there was mini eggs and little smarties Easter candies and all of them small things. This was also the day of the terrorist attacks which are disgusting and my heart goes out to those effected.

Food wise my lunch was a pitta bread with tuna (most days I will have a tuna sandwich but this week we had pittas so I just put my tuna in there) and dinner was chicken goujons, potatoes and cucumber which was very nice and I actually have this dinner a lot as it covers the food groups and is also really nice.

Wednesday- 23/3/16
Wednesday was a good day. In the evening I went to the theatre with my drama class to watch The 39 Steps but obviously the ride there and back was the best thing even though the performance itself was really good and funny. On the way there we had a massive sing song singing some Justin Bieber, One Direction and a couple of throwback tunes and on the way back we done truths and dares, although we did do some on the way there. 

Food wise everything was quite basic and dinner needed to be quick because I was going out so I just had a 3 minute Chicago Town pizza but in the theatre I also did have Terry;s Chocolate Orange Sensations which are the best things ever and the best ones are the dark chocolate ones and the popping candy ones. 

Thursday- 24/3/16
Thursday was the last day at school before Easter holidays and it was only a half day. I really like half days as you get to wear your own clothes and everything is more chilled out in your lessons as they're only half an hour long instead of an hour. After school I went to Costa with my dad and sister and it was very nice and I had a panini and a creamy cooler which I love.

Also on this day my bed broke. Basically my sister and I were sitting on my bed talking and suddenly a bang happened and I noticed a bit of the bed which holds it together broke and my bed had gone lop-sided. So I have been sleeping on a lop sided bed but my new bed should hopefully come in about 4 weeks and I also get a new mattress so I should be having some really nice sleeps soon, well I'll need it especially with my back sleeping on a lop sided bed.

Friday- 25/3/16
Good Friday! I thought it was going to be a Bad Friday as my sister kept saying Bad Friday but nothing bad did happen. I just spent Friday catching up on everything and running errands like going to Tesco to pick up a couple of things I needed. I also did some work on my blog and I also had a pamper evening to take photos for an upcoming blog post and it was needed after a stessful term at school.

Food wise I ate a lot of chocolate but it was good Friday so I ate 1 and a half Easter eggs- 1 half of a Cadbury's one and a whole one from ChockABlok but that was quite a small one. I also finished off my Terry's Chocolate Orange Sensations from Wednesday and I left my 2 favourites till the end.

Saturday- 26/3/16
Like last Saturday I went to my local shopping place but this time I went with a different friend so I went with Nicha (who is also my biggest fan so hello). We had a great time such as Nicha breaking everything and a woman who tripped over, we are so horrible but we were trying not to laugh but when she got off we burst off laughing. I bought a floral purse from New Look ,which I love, and the Sakura bath bomb from Lush, which I will be doing a review on.

Food wise I had my lunch in Greggs with Nicha and I had a hot sausage roll as I was thinking about my cold one (see Monday) and started craving a hot sausage roll. I also had a Millie's Cookie when I was out and even though it was small it was still really nice. Dinner was a BBQ pulled pork subroll which was really nice as I love pulled pork or anything BBQ.

Sunday- 27/3/16

On Sunday I thought I should wear some fake nails and I have loved wearing them. They are from Primark and I featured them in my P.S. Love Beauty Review but now I have actually been properly wearing the black and white design ones. They are quite damaging to your nails but I won't be wearing fake nails often so it's not that much of a big deal. Also Sunday was Easter so for me it was a boring day as nothing was opened so I just stayed at home in comfy clothes, eating and watching YouTube. I also majorly procrastinated on my homework which I really need to do.

Food wise I ate a Lindt bunny which is what my dad got me for Easter and shying away from the usual Easter candy I had a pick & mix which I got when out yesterday and I put a little reference to Easter in there by putting mini eggs however I would've put them in there otherwise whatever time of the year.

My third weekly reflect. I really enjoy making these as I don't write a diary so in a way this is my diary just not a private one and one anyone could read so I have to be careful what I write. If you want to read my last 2 they will be linked at the bottom of the post. Follow me on Twitter and Instagram (@_louisecarter_) as I'm sure I will posting on there a lot over the next few weeks and I will make it my mission to.

Wilko Haul

Wilko Haul

Recently I have been loving Wilko which if you didn't know is a shop which sells homeware, stationery, food and beauty and it's really cheap. As I've been liking it a lot I thought I would I should dedicate a whole haul which I don't usually do. Today's haul will include stationery, food and beauty- my life.

Wilko A4 Document Wallet- I picked this up not knowing what I would do with it (best shopper ever!) but thought I would use it at one point. I really like the design of it and it's in the selfie design which I really like as I bought a lot from it because I love the colours. I have been using this to store my random papers in as I seem to have a lot of them. This was really cheap and it's actually really good quality.
This was 80p

Wilko A6 Organiser- This is seriously one of the best purchases I've made as this thing is amazing. There's 4 sections- to buy, to do, to plan and things to remember and they're so handy. The section I use the most is definitely the to buy section but I use the others too. This is really handy as you can put this in your bag as it takes up no room. The thing is that I wish there was cuter prints as I'm not the biggest fan of the design.
This was £2.50

Wilko Life's A Journey Mug- I wanted to get some new mugs as I hated mine and I saw this one and loved the quote. It says 'life's not about the destination, it's about the journey' and I really like that quote. When I was telling my friend Cerys about this mug I accidentally got the saying the wrong way round so I said 'life's not about the journey, it's about the destination' which isn't very motivational.
This was £1

Wilko Let's Take A Selfie Mug- Wilko is obsessed with being down with the kids with everything being selfie related. I got another mug for my desk to keep my hand sanitizers in as they deserve a cute home (LOL!). I really like the colours of this mug and I also like the pizza on it however it probably wasn't the best idea as it does make me crave pizza at weird times (like me now at 10:23pm)
This was £1

Wilko A5 Exercise Book-  I bought a lot of exercise books but they all have a purpose. The first one I got has this satchel design which I think looks really nice against the polka dots even though I usually hate polka dots. I'm using this as my food diary so basically after every meal I write down what I ate because it encourages me to eat healthier as I have to write everything down
This was £1

Wilko 'Oh hey!' A5 Exercise Book- This is another of the exercise books I bought and this one is just a random one where I write random things in and make random doodles which have no meaning. I really like the design of this one as it matches the document wallet at the beginning of this haul even though I don't use them together. I like having a random notebook as I always need a notebook #notebookobsessed
This was 50p

Wilko Cameras A5 Exercise Book- Finally the last notebook (but not the last stationery item!). I think this is my favourite notebook because it's my favourite design out of them because of the colours and I love the cameras. I use this notebook to plan what blog photos I need to take because I am really unogranised with blog photos so I need to have a list of what to take as I won't take the right pictures. 
This was 50p

Wilko Rubber Band Ball- I don't know why I got this to be exact but you never know when you're going to need a rubber band. I was watching velvetgh0st the day before and she said she wished rubber band balls came in cuter colours and then I saw this rubber ball band which was in pink, green, blue, yellow, purple and white. I really like playing with this so this does get me distracted...
This was £1.50

Wilko Fruits Coconut & Vanilla Fragrance Explosion Shower Gel-  I'm currently using the Strawberry & Pomegranate shower gel from Wilko and I really like it so I thought I would pick up another but this time in Coconut & Vanilla as I love the scent of coconut so much. If I could I would use everything coconut as I'm also using a coconut scent shampoo and conditioner so soon I'm going to be a coconut!
This was 95p

Bodyform 30 Multistyle Normal Single Wrap Liners-  I wasn't going to include these because a.) I thought it was a bit weird and b.) I bought the wrong ones but I'm quickly adding these in as I did buy these 
These were £1.60

Skin Therapy Sensitive Skin Facial Wash- Again I bought the wrong thing! I don't have sensitive skin but when I was looking at this Skin Therapy stuff (which is their own skincare brand) there was a lot of people around so I couldn't have a proper look but it's ok as this hasn't broken me out and my skin does really and look good but next time I will buy the right thing for my skin type!
This was 95p

Skin Therapy Normal & Combination Skin Lightly Fragranced Face Wipes- I use face wipes everyday to take off my makeup so I thought I should pick up anopther pack as these were only 50p which I think is incridible as it works as 2p per wipe. I think the Simple wipes are quite expensive so I pick up cheap ones and these ones even take off waterproof mascara which is what I wear.
These were 50p

Wilko Pick and Mix Bag- Wilko is my favourite place to get Pick and Mix so I bought a bag as I always get a cup so I thought I would do something different. I always get a lot of watermelon slices sweet as they're my absolute favourite but I also got fizzy bubblegum bottles, white Jazzels, milk chocolate Jazzels, mini eggs, smarties and I got quite a bit so it comes to however much you put it.
My bag came to £3.69

Wilko Washi Tape 4x Rolls- Since the beginning of the year I have been using a lot of washi tape so when I saw they done some I had to pick them up. There is 4 designs which are a ruler style one, black and clear chevron, a stamp design and a pretty floral pattern. If Wilko did more packs I would have got more but I only saw this pack and they seem to be really good.
This was £1.50

Wilko Extra Large Pick & Mix Cup- I bought all of this stuff on 2 shopping trips so I bought  another cup the other time I went because I really like the pick and mix and this time it was all half price! I was going to get a regular cup but it was £1.95 for an extra large so I couldn't pass it up. I pretty much got the same that was in the bag as I always get my favourite things and I eat the watermelon slices last all the time!
This was £1.95 on sale from £3.95

Wilko Pink Stapler- I always steal my dads stapler so I got one to not annoy him and so I don't have to always go downstairs to get it (#lazy #ionlygodownstairstogetfood). I got a pink one because pink is my favourite colour and it goes with all of the other accessories on my desk as you know got to match. I'm also glad as it came with staples so I didn't have to buy any.
This was £1.75

Wilko Nail Polish Remover Acetone Free- I change the nail colour on my toes every week and when I do I use a lot of nail polish remover for no reason so I got this one. I picked up the acetone free one for no reason as I don't get the different (I remember learning about acetone in science this year) but this one smells so bad that I hate using it now as I can't bear the smell.
This was 95p

I really hope you enjoyed this post because I don't normally do hauls on one shop as usually they're collective but I will change that soon. If you would like more from me follow me on Twitter and Instagram where my username is @_louisecarter_ as I have been posting on there a lot recently.

I ♡ Spring Tag

I felt like doing a tag which everyone used to do a while ago so today I'm going to be making a I ♡ Spring Tag as I love spring and I like making tags so here is one. Also in summer, autumn and winter this year I will be doing a seasonal tag for them as we have to share the other seasons some loving. 

1. What's your favourite spring nail polish?

Obviously my answer is going to pastels because pastels are one of my favourite things about spring and I have 2 polishes which I love. The first one is by Miss Sporty and it was in my Buy, Try, Decide- Superdrug which you can read HERE and it is the Clubbing Colour Less Than 1 Minute Quick Dry in Lilac and the other one is the Barry M Gelly Hi Shine Nail Paint in Rose Hip 

2. What's your must have lip colour this Spring?
I never thought I would be saying it but it's actually a liquid lipstick because I recently bought some from Primark's beauty range and I have been loving them. The exact one is in 01 Pink (I wish they had cuter names) and it's a really pretty pink which you can wear in the day or night.

3. Show us your favourite spring clothing?
I love this pink jacket which I got from Peacocks a couple of years ago. I still need to go spring clothing shopping so when I do, I'll make a haul. I really like this one because of the bright colour and it's good if it's still a little bit chilly but it's cold.

4. Favourite spring scarf/accessory?
I thought I would show you both my favourite scarf and accessory as why not? My favourite scarf is this pink and white one from Primark which I got last year and it really adds a lot of colour to your outfit. My favourite accessory is my coral satchel which I got from Primark quite recently and I really like it as I don't have any coral things in my wardrobe and I love satchels. These two things don't go together but I like these with separate outfits. 

5. What's your favourite flower?
I'm not much of a flower person even though I love floral prints but my favourite flowers are peonies because they're pretty and I would have these as my wedding bouquet as they're so gorgeous.

6. What spring trends are you looking forward to this spring? (Makeup, fashion etc)
I don't usually follow trends as I like to have my own style but I did do some research on the spring 2016 trends. The fashion trend I really like is the stripe trend which is something I've always liked but it's going to be big this spring as it was on the runways like Alexander Wang, DKNY and Stella McCartney and the makeup trend I really like is the Candy Apple lipstick trend. Candy apple is like a Snow White apple red shade and it's really different from your usual pinks. It was seen at the fashion shows like DKNY, Celine and Topshop Unique.

7. Favourite spring footwear?
I wear trainers all year round but in Spring I always wear a different pair of trainers and I think my pair for this season is my white platform trainers with rose gold detail from Primark. I really like this pair because the white is really nice for spring as it really goes with all the spring colours and the platform is a little bit different but hard to walk in to be honest.

8. Favourite body spray/ perfume?
I recently got 2 Victoria Secret fragrance mists and I really like them but for spring I really like the Zoella Beauty Let's Spritz body mist as it's the perfect spring smell and it's also good when we're transitioning into summer

9. What is spring like where you live?
If you didn't know I live in England and sadly the spring weather is not the best and Tumblr like how I want it to look like. Basically the weather is not very predictable as one days sunny and the next it's chucking it down with rain but the flowers and trees can look nice at some places.

10. What is your favourite thing about spring?
Definitely the colours as I love pastels so much that I love the fact that spring is when they're all in the shops so I can buy everything pastels!!!

11. Are you a spring cleaner?
No but I wish I was as I'm sure it must feel really nice to do a massive spring clean. I really need to clean my room as it's a tip but I can't be bothered.

12. Any plans for spring break or an upcoming vacation?
Holiday wise I'm not going anywhere and on my Easter holiday I'm going to be home watching YouTube and staying up late and also doing writing a 2000 word essay on cryptography #fun #goals #iknowyouarejealous 

That was my I Heart Spring Tag and I really hope you enjoyed it as I liked writing it and now I'm really excited for spring and get everything pastels! If you would like to follow my life follow my Twitter and Instagram and my username is @_louisecarter_ 

Weekly Reflect 2

Monday 
So I started the week off ill which was not the best thing as I was coughing in so much in school and what makes it worse is that my cough is really annoying so I feel sorry for anyone close to me as even I think it's annoying. As I was quite ill I didn't really have much of an appetite so I left half of my wrap which was my lunch and it was really nice but I just couldn't eat it. 

Tuesday
Tuesday was a very funny day as me and my friends were having lots of lols at lunch and mine and my friend Cerys' walk home from school was so funny. We always say if someone heard our conversations they would lock us up in a mental asylum because our conversations are the weirdest thing ever but I love them. Nothing else really happened apart from boring school and bloody hockey but my team won and for once Cerys was on my team!

Wednesday
Wednesday was the most boring day as my life is boring so basically I went to school, had lessons and went home and had dinner. I did have 7 years by Lukas Graham in my head all day (it's a good job I like the song) and I kept having the urge to sing it out loud but I only did it when I was alone but it's a shame no one heard my amazing singing (truth is I can't sing)

Thursday
I swear this week has been the most boring week ever so I apologise for making this a boring weekly reflect but it's a true reflect of my life. Mine and Cerys' walk home was hilarious but I won't tell you are conversation as it was very weird and funny (and you had to be there to understand the funniness) and only us would understand it. Also Cerys and I had a singsong with some of our other squad Jamie and Michael and it was very good. I also had geography and for once we got let out on the bell which was very rare and we all ran out.

Friday
Fridays are usually good days for me and this lived up to it. School was boring as usual but we had a lot of laughs with Jamie at lunch and I swear all Cerys and Jamie do is throw food at each other which is funny but gross. I also had 2 hours of drama which was good as I like drama and I thought the lesson was going to be boring as it was based on the performance we're going to see next Wednesday but it was actually pretty good. I also had geography which I really like and for once we didn't get kept behind!

Saturday
Saturday was a great day as I went to my local shopping place with Cerys! We had a great time and probably annoyed everyone as I'm rude and clumsy; we joked that I shouldn't be allowed in public as I'm a hazard, The woman in Boots hated me even though I did nothing wrong as we were at the self service machine and it said ;do you have an advantage card' and I was like 'no stop asking me' but it was getting on my nerves. I also nearly fell down the stairs on the bus and the elderly woman near me was getting annoyed as I was whispering 'fuck!'

Sunday
Sunday is always my relax day where I do any school work (however I didn't have any!), any blog work or just relax and today I did blog work and relax. On Saturday I picked up the Blogosphere magazine which I have been reading and I love it and even though is was quite expensive at £5 it's worth every penny as it's really informative and good quality. I also picked up some American candy when I bought the magazine and they both weren't that good.
Twizzlers- I was looking forward to trying these but they ended up disappointing me as they weren't that good as they tasted cheap and a bit like rubber which wasn't the nicest. I am going to finish the packet but I won't get these again.

Cookies 'n' Cream Bites- I was really looking forward to trying these as I love anything cookies and cream and these were good but they weren't the best thing ever. They looked disgusting like mini meatballs and they did have a good taste but it was very sugary. I don't think I would repurchase.

Top 5 Current Songs

Today I'm starting a new series called Top 5 where I'm going to write a list (I like lists but they're very bad to do in geography) on a random topic but it will probably be beauty related but today I'm starting off with songs as I love music and I have some jams which I wanted to share with you as I have been listening to a lot of music lately.

7 Years by Lukas Graham 
I know a lot of people hate this song by know but I still really like it and I have been jamming out to it a lot recently as it's really catchy and good singing. However when you do get this in your head you probably won't get it out for 24 hours as I'm saying that from experience.

No by Meghan Trainor
I follow Meghan on Instagram and there was a huge build up to this song and I wasn't sure whether I was going to like it or not but I actually really do. It's very different from her last songs, which to be honest I do prefer, but I still really like this song and I also really like Meghan's new hair so if you haven't seen it look it up.

Army by Ellie Goulding
I heard this ages ago on an ITV advert and I could tell it was Ellie Goulding but didn't know the song but when I heard the full song on the radio I really liked it and I'm still liking it. I really like the message behind the song as it's cute and I would find it cute if someone wrote me a song but who would?

Eyes Shut by Years & Years
I heard this song ages ago but I'm still liking it, probably because I watched the music video the other day. I really like Years & Years as I like this song and Shine but I didn't like them to start off with as I didn't like King but now I really like it and the guy who does the singing in Years & Years can really sing.

Hands To Myself by Selena Gomez
Personally I'm not really a fan of Selena Gomez but I really like this song even if isn't the best song. My favourite line is 'I mean I could but why would I want to' and every time I hear the song I always go round afterwards singing it but I do sing the whole song as it's very catchy.

That was my playlist which I have been listening to recently. Remember to check back here and follow me so you know when I post another Top 5 as I have some more planned and I really liked writing this and they're very quick to write which is good for me!

Asos Wishlist | Spring 2016

You probably know how much I love making wishlists so today I'm making another Asos one. I love spring because I love the colours and the clothing so I was really excited to look at all of the spring clothing and dream about what I want. One day. Anyway lets get looking at my favourite spring clothing on Asos.

Clockwise from top left

River Island Tropical Print Cami Playsuit- If I was going on holiday I would wear this all the time. I would wear it at the beach, the pool, going out during the day. I love the print of this as it's not all bright which I would normally go for if I was going on holiday. I would wear this with some really nice sandles, a massive beach bag and a floppy hat. 

This is £20 from River Island at Asos

Selected Prea Graphic Print Blazer- This wouldn't be something I would normally wear but I really like it so I've included this in this wishlist. I love the bright colours of it and it would add some fun into a plain black and white outfit. I would wear this with black, ripped jeans and a plain white top.

This is £70 from Selected at Asos

Ginger Fizz Wrap Front Pencil Dress in Dark Wash- This dress would be perfect if you was going on holiday as it's not something you would normally wear in England and the colours of the dress would look really nice if you had a tan. I love the back of the skirt as it's really different and I love dresses that are dip hem and this is a bit different as it's longer.

This is £40 from Ginger Fizz at Asos

Supertrash Bensoni Throw On Jacket in Print-  I think this would be perfect for the English weather as it's light as the weather is unpredictable so it's good to have some jacket and the colours are really appropriate for the UK. I love the outfit the model is wearing in the picture so I would wear that with this jacket.

This is £70 from Supertrash at Asos

Asos Denim Shirt in Marlin Retro Blue Wash- I feel like a denim shirt is a really nice spring essential and I haven't got one so I included this in my wishlist. I really like the wash of this shirt as it would go with black and white jeans and if I had one they would be the jeans I would wear the most with this. 

This is £22 at Asos

Sitch & Pieces Loose Jumper with Tassel Hem- In the UK you don't know what spring weather is like so it's good to have a jumper as it might still be a little cold but it's a lighter material and it's a really nice spring colour. I would wear this jumper with black jeans and Converse so it's really casual and laid back.

This is £35 from Sitch & Pieces at Asos

New Look Wrap Front Tailored Jumpsuit-  I've been a fan of jumpsuits for a while now, especially the black tailored ones, so when I saw this cheap one from New Look I had to include it. This would look really nice if you're going on a date as it's formal whilst not showing your legs so you don't need so shave!

This is £22.99 from New Look at Asos

Asos 2 Pack High Waisted Leggings in Black- I'm always wearing black leggings (I'm wearing them as I write this) so it's always good to have some more. It's good to get multi packs as usually they're cheaper and if 1 pair get a hole in, you have spare. Also I would pay £14 for 2 as they'll probably last quite a while

These are £14 from Asos

Asos Pleated Culotte Shorts- Usually I hate culottes but as these are in short form I really like them as sometimes tight shorts can be a big uncomfortable especially after eating on holiday. I would only wear these on holiday as in the UK you probably wouldn't get much wear out of them, only on the hottest day of the year.

These are £12 from Asos.

New Look Stripe Mesh Midi Skirt- Over the last 2 years or so I have really been liking midi skirts as I love how flow-y they are and this one seems really flow-y especially because there's another skirt over proper skirt. I would wear this with a black short sleeve top, black heels and a really pretty statement necklace.

This is £24.99 from New Look at Asos

Reebok Batwing Slouchy Sweatshirt With Retro Logo- I'm usually not a fan of clothing with massive logos on but I actually really like this as it's really casual. To be honest it's not a thing I would wear out a lot but I really like it for relaxing at home. I would wear this with black leggings and if I had to go I would wear Converses.

This is £40 from Reebok at Asos

Asos Sweatshirt with Cute Panda Print- OMG! This jumper is so cute! I think this a perfect jumper for spring as it's cute with a white background and it also seems really light so depending on the weather you could wear this with a leather or denim jacket or without no jacket. I would wear this with black jeans and hi-tops.

This is £22 from Asos

Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Leather Stud Hi Top Trainers- I feel like I always put Converse in my Asos Wishlists but that's because I love them and this pair is amazing. I have loved studs for a really long time and I love my hi tops so a mix between studs, hi tops and Converse is perfect for me.

These are £80 from Converse at Asos

Asos Metallic Floral Zip Top Coin Purse- My purse has way too many coins in it everyone always comments on how my purse has to be so heavy (I don't feel it as I'm used to it) so I really want to get a coin purse and this one is so cute. The floral pattern is really cute and a pattern Accessorize would do. 

This is £8 from Asos

Glamorous Minimal Backpack in Blush- I love backpacks but I don't have any pink ones so for me that's a good excuse to include one. I love how simple it is, especially plain and then with the gold band which I think is cute. This would be a great spring bag as backpacks are always big in spring.

This is £30 from Glamorous at Asos

EVA NYC Tourmaline Clip-Free Digital Curler in Floral Frenzy- I love having my hair curled but the thing is I don't have a curler to do it with and this one is super cute so I had to include one. I haven't had my hair curled in a long time but I really like it and I think it will look good now my hair is longer.

This is £50 from EVA NYC at Asos

The total cost of this wishlist is £560.98 which is a lot but if I had the money I would buy it all to be completely honest as I love everything.. My friend Nicha and I always talk about being rich so Nicha when I'm rich I'll be buying a lot of clothes.
