Liebster Award Nomination

Hi,
For Today's blogpost I'm doing Liebster Award Nomination. I don't exactly know what it is but I was nominated by Isabelle Elli (isabelleelli.blogspot.co.uk) you can go check out her version for more information. 😊
I'm actually really excited to do this, I think its a type of Q & A but I'm not sure. Basically somebody asks you 10 questions then you have to answer them, and then you nominate other people and ask them 10 questions. If thats wrong then I'm sorry. Anyway lets go!
1. What would happen in your dream day?
In my dream day I would go too a meet up with my favourite YouTubers become close friends with them. After that I would fly to New York and go shopping on Fifth Avenue with my besties.
2. Whats a hobby of yours which we may not know about?
I like to bake A LOT! In fact I LOVE to bake. Aside from playing my violin, reading watching YouTube, sketching and exercising, then it would be baking because I just love the sweet things. Also because I like doing it myself because I'm very particular about my hygiene.
3. What is your favourite book?
My favourite book is Confessions of a Shopaholic by Sophie Kinsella. I'm sure most of you would have heard of it but I'm saying it anyway. I really love this book and I totally recommend it to anyone. It's about a shopaholic, called Rebecca. I'm a shopaholic myself but, my mum has to stop me or I would be £10000 in debt. I don't want to say anything incase I spoil it, but you should just go read it. If you've already read it then tell me in the comments below. :)
4. Who is your favourite YouTuber?
I can't pick one because I love lots but my favourite three are probably Zoella, aka Zoe Sugg. She's an all around lifestyle blogger which I really like and just generally a nice person. Then its Tanya Burr. Her blog is mainly based on makeup and fashion. If I had to match myself up to one YouTuber I think it would be her because we both love fashion, makeup and baking. :) And Finally my favourite boy is ThatcherJoe, aka Joe Sugg. He just so naturally funny and I always enjoy every single one of his videos.
5. What drink would you get from a cafe?
Well I'm quite boring but it depends in what mood I'm in. If I'm feeling healthy then I would get a smoothie (preferably Mango, Orange and Pineapple.) But if I don't care then I would get a Hot Chocolate with marshmallows and whipped cream.
6. What are your tips for a new blogger?
Well I'm not really suited to ask this question but it would be to be patient. I remember when me and the rest of L.I.E.S were anxiously waiting for our first comment. But the best thing is when it happened. I felt SOOO happy. That lovely feeling which I can't describe, it was just overwhelming.
7. What's on the top of your bucket list?
Because I want to be a fashion designer something on the top of my bucket list would be to have Tanya Burr and Zoe Sugg to be style ambassadors of my brand. That would legit be a dream come true. Secondly I would want to have my own charity against child abuse. I just think its horrible and want to raise awareness so we can stop it.
8. Why did you start a blog?
We were just discussing something at lunch and thought of it then BOOM, it happened. Although as soon as I started reading blogs I wanted to make one anyway because the thought of it seemed really cool. And it is as well!
9. What makeup item do you use the most?
The makeup item I use the most is lipgloss, because thats the only thing my mum will let me use. But, if I had a choice then it would probably be Concealer or Mascara.
10. What would you tell your younger self?
I'm not even 15 yet so I'm still very young but I think what I would tell my younger self would be to not envy other people, because there are many people who would love to be in my position and that I should be grateful for what I have. I'm still working at it but, I'll get their someday.

For the Liebster Nomination Award I nominate:
the-wonderful-life-of-a-fangirl.blogspot.co.uk

I nominate you to do these questions:
What is your favourite book?
What is the place you want to travel the most?
What is your dream job?
Where is your dream place to live?
What do you like the best about blogging?
What career did you want when you were younger?
Who is your favourite girl YouTuber?

No7 Soft & Soothed Gentle Cleanser Review

Hi,
For today's post I'm going to do a review. I've not done these before, but hopefully you'll enjoy it. Happy Reading. 😊
As said in the title this is a No7 Cleanser. It costs £8, but it also has a '3 for 2' deal.
http://m.boots.com/h5/cat_hub?path=%2Fen%2FNo7-Soft-Soothed-Gentle-Cleanser_1259431%2F&unCountry=uk
I really like this cleanser because first off all it has pink packaging 😍 and secondly because its makes my skin slightly clearer 👍. I can't say that this is the best cleanser that I've ever tried because this is the only one but I'd say its pretty good. 👌 I use this everyday morning and night to cleanse my skin. It doesn't make a massive difference to my skin but after time I've notice that my skin has got clearer. It did reduce the redness of my spot that I recently had but it did take a while too go but, in all fairness I do often forget or can't be bothered to wash my face, (tut tut tut, slaps my hand) which doesn't help. I wouldn't say my skin is perfect but then I would say its terrible either. I have combination skin because my face is dry apart from my T-Zone. I think its suitable for all skin types as well. When applying this cleanser you're suppose to use cotton wool pads or cotton wool balls but I don't use them. That may effect the outcome but I don't think it does. I'd just like to throw in that its hypo-allergenic, (dunno what that means though, 😂.) Anyway overall I think I'd give this product a 4/5. 👍
I hope you have enjoyed this review. 😊 Please leave in the comments if you have any skincare or cleanser recommendations,
Talk to you next week,

Casual OOTD

Hi,
Sorry again for not uploading last Sunday but I was grieving over my test scores 😭, and was vv busy with finishing off any last minute homework. But, I'm back now anyway. 👍 So anyway, for todays post I thought I would do a Casual OOTD, because I've done two before,
(http://introductiontolies.blogspot.co.uk/2016/03/church-dedication-ootd-xx.html?m=1
http://introductiontolies.blogspot.co.uk/2016/03/film-party-ootd-x.html?m=1)
and you guys seem to  like them so here you go!
1. Blue Venice Beach Tie-Dye Top
http://m.newlook.com/shop/teens/tops/girls-blue-venice-beach-tie-dye-t-shirt_379862949
This top is from New Look. This isn't the exact top I have, but I thought this would be a nice substitute. The top I have is in the 915 generation and it is blue top with '76' printed on the front . (btw, my top was £4 but on sale. )But I think this top is just as good. I think this is really nice to wear in spring because its a very nice a pale colour which matches the mood of spring. I also like it because (I don't about this top but my top) isn't a crop top but then it isn't a long top its just the perfect length, (basically, it meets were your jeans stop which I really like the look of.)
2. White Jeggings
http://m.newlook.com/shop/teens/shop-department/girls-white-jeggings_367291910?productFind=search
I think this is a necessity for spring because you tend to wear more bright colours in spring and I just think that white goes with everything especially with a pale colour top or even a dark top I personally still think it looks nice. I bought these for £7 on sale but they are like £11 in real life.
3. White Grey Striped Hoodie
I don't know where this is from but it us just a hoodie. It has a very thin material so its more like a kimono but a hoodie (if you know what I mean 😂.) When I wear it with this outfit I tie it round my waist. Firstly because I like the look of it, secondly incase it gets cold and thirdly because they are jeggings I don't want to be too revealing.
4. Lace-up White Pumps
http://www.primark.com/en/product/white-lace-up-pumps,r35397116035008

These are just simple white pumps which you just where with white jeggings. They are £3 and I love them alot because they are just a basic necessity to your wardrobe. 😊
So, I hope you have enjoyed my OOTD for today, I'm sorry for not uploading much but I'm gonna try and do one tomorrow.
Hope you have enjoyed this post,

How to Style: Leather Jeans

Hi,
I'm really sorry because I haven't blogged in a while but because I've been revising alot for tests which meant that I've been very busy. But, finally its all done. And I'm also sorry because I said I was going to do a 'Book Shelf Tour' but its been really hard to write and I think my explanations aren't very good. But if you want it then leave in the comments but I'm not sure it'll be good or interesting.
Sorry about all that but I'll try to get back into my usual blogging routine. But anyway, for todays post I'm doing a 'how to style' post. I thought of doing this because I've seen a few other fashion bloggers doing it and thought I give it a try. So....lets go! 😊
1. Chiffon Long Sleeved Top
I think it looks very nice to style a chiffon top with jeans because I think it looks very nice and sophisticated, especially if the top is white because it has a nice contrast and it creates a very nice minimalistic piece. I think generally the top should be quite a pale colour cause.. I don't know. To me I think it just looks really nice and effective. It would be nice to pair this with some red ballet flats to add a pop of colour and a nice big black tote.
2. Big Pink Oversized Coat
I think its very nice to wear a nice oversized coat with leather jeans because it looks really nice and simple but perfect. Because you've got dark jeans I think its nice to add that big pop of colour so that your got some colour in your outfit.
3. Oversized Cable Knit Jumper
I think its really nice to wear and oversized jumper. Especially if it was a roll neck. (they look so cool 👌) Also because cable knit is really nice pattern. Yet again a pale colour because they just contrast really well.
I hope you've enjoyed this post because I don't know if it was good or if I just rambled on quite a bit over the same point.
(Sorry I've just realised that these are more winter outfits 😂
Please leave in the comment is you have any preferences on future posts.
Talk to you next week for a new post,
S xx 💖💗💘
PS. I would just like to give out a quick shoutout to Isabelle Elli for commenting on one if our posts. http://isabelleelli.blogspot.co.uk/?m=1

May favourites

Bonjour!
Hello everybody. I would just like to start off by saying sorry that I haven't really posted much at all through May, but as some of you already know, every single one of us on this blog have been going through exams which means we have had to revise a lot. Luckily the exams are over so I will be going back to my usual one a week routine.
Anyway enough about that. So since may has almost finished, I have decided to do a may favourites, because I loved doing the April one. So let's get started:

1. Big Bang bubble bar - Lush.
I absolutely love this bubble bar. the night my exams ended I had a bath, and this bubble bar was so good and relaxing. It created quite a lot of bubbles and it smelt amazing. It also turned the water blue and sparkly which is cool too.

2. Nivea essential care lip balm - boots.
This isn't that exiting, but trust me it's an amazing product. This lip balm makes your lips feel so good and it starts working almost instantly. It also has no colour to it so it means you can use it at school.

3. Fruitigo body spray from soap and glory - boots
This body spray is amazing. I sadly ran out of my sugar crush one so I started using this one and I loved it. The smell is very long lasting and the smell is very fruity (obviously) and sweet, so if you don't like sweet or fruity scents I wouldn't recommend it, but if your like me then I think you should buy it.

4. butter me up body butter, zoella -super drug.
I ran out of my body shop body butter but I had this in my drawer from Christmas so I decided to try it, and I am so glad i did. The butter leaves your skin feeling soft and moisturised, and it also smells amazing. As well as this the packaging is so cute and you don't need much to make your skin feel good, so that means it lasts a long time.

5. Wild argan oil shower gel - body shop.
I Love love love this shower gel. To be honest I love all body shop shower gels but I especially love this one. The shower gel leaves your body smelling amazing for a long time, and I also find the smell isn't really overpowering, which is good.

6. Soft hands kind heart - body shop.
This is a hand cream and it is amazing. After you use it your hands feel so soft and healthy. It is also a good smell which many people like so that's a bonus.

Anyway I hope you have enjoyed my blog post. Leave a comment down below on the things you have been loving, and you could possibly have a shout out!
Toddles,

Shoutout to: Chloe Madeline who left such a lovely comment on my April favourites. Thank you Chloe!

Mini haul

Hi guys!
I've decided to take a quick break from revision and do a mini haul on what I bought the other day when I went shopping with my friend. I know this isn't really my topic but I thought it would be nice to do something different.

1. The first thing I got was some cotton pads from boots! Not very exciting I know but really useful for removing nail varnish and makeup! They are only £1.80 and there are lots in the packet.
2. Then we went to primark where I got these shorts for the summer for £7. Primark is really cheap and I didn't need good quality ones so if your looking for a cheap place to buy some clothes then I recommend primark as they do have some nice things. However their short range isn't great but the shorts I found I really like(even though they're too big for me!).
3. We then went to body shop. I love body shop and I have really dry hands so I was looking for some hand cream and in body shop they have 3 for 2 on small items so I thing bought mango scented hand gel which smells amazing and is really useful to have on you and if you need a quick freshen up of the hands. I then also bought lip butter recommended by my friend and it's really good making your lips really soft! Of course I then bought the hand cream too and it makes your hands feel really soft and smell really good! I bought mine in wild argon oil which is one of my fav scents. Altogether this was £8. 
4. I then went to paperchase and bought this really nice pencil case for £6. It is black with a rose pattern on it and is just really pretty. I love paper chase in general and if your looking for some nice stationary then paperchase is really good! 
5. Finally we went to lush one of my favourite shops and I bought the Big Bang bubble bar which smells AMAZING and is defiantly one of my favourite scents in the shop. I also bought the twilight bath bomb that I have yet to try but it is meant to be really relaxing which is what I will need after exams!

So that's what I bought I hope you enjoyed reading it and I have given you some shops to visit because I love all those shops! If your looking for something similar to what I have spoken about then definitely check out those shops! If you have any shops that you think me and other people would like to visit or items that are in any shop that you would reccomend then please leave it in the comment below and I will add giving you a shout out of course!
Thank you for reading!
