From where I'd rather be...


Hello Everybody!

It's no big secret, but I have a serious case of Wanderlust. Currently it's been taking over my life, and I'm going to share where I'd rather be right now.

1. Zurich, Switzerland. This city is a is extremely beautiful, from Old Town to the gorgeous shopfronts in Bahnofstrasse. There's so much culture, art and food points of interest, I could write an entire post about it! There's also some awe-inspiring ski villages close by, so to me, Zurich is definitely a place I'd love to see.

2. NewYork, USA. What can I say about the city that never sleeps?  It's full of style, music, arts, NYC has something for everyone. And the people, wow. It's insane how many unique people fit in one place. If you don't believe me, The HONY Blog will change that for you.

3. Mykonos, Greek Islands. Mykonos is the most picturesque place you will ever see. It has crystal clear water and some breathtakingly beautiful views where ever you go. To me, this place it the ultimate venue for relaxation and Me-time.

4. Montreal, Canada. I love Paris. I love Canada. So, you can say that I have definitely fallen in love with Montreal! I have been before, but as I was a little one at the time, I don't think I fully appreciated the wonderful blend of old and new that makes up this city. There's so much I want to do there, especially the Montréal en Lumière, a beautiful festival of lights.


So there it is, four cities at the top of my Wanderlust Wishlist! Thank you so much for reading, and don't forget to follow me on Bloglovin'. I'll see you next week, Goodbye!

Album Review: Blisters by Adam Barnes




Hello Everybody!
The other day I was flicking through iTunes, and I found a beauty of an album.  I fell in love with it, bought it, and here it is for me to review to you.

Blisters is the second album by Singer/Songwriter Adam Barnes. I personally think that his musical skill is incredible, especially in the vocal department, showing off the raw sound with a Capella and in harmony with the music. As well as this, the guitar part is amazing and the drum beat really pulls all of the songs together. It has 8 tracks I can’t get enough of, all of which give off a really individual and unique vibe. The mood changes from uplifting in Old Shoes, to a really grown up darker vibe in Lighthouse. The change in mood from song to song, which I really like. One of my favourite things about an album is if it can make you feel something, and Blisters has gone above and beyond.

Now onto my favourite song from this album. This was particularly hard, as I have been listening to all of them so often and I loved them all. But, my favourite is definitely She Will Stay Beneath the Moon. This song is amazing to run to, relax to, wake up to… it’s one of those songs that click with you and you can never get tired of it. Songs hardly ever get to find that place with me, so this song takes the cake.

I definitely recommend Blisters, to the moon and back, it’s an album anyone can love and you could listen to it a million times, without losing your love of it.


Thank you all so much for reading this post, and I will see you next week. Goodbye! xx

Little Pamper Session

Hello again!

Earlier this week, I had come home and I was extremely tired, my skin was really dry, and all I wanted to do was have some time to relax. So, what I decided was to have a little bath session, and I'd like to share it with you!


After filling my bath, I dropped in a Lush Golden Wonder Bath Ballistic (Heads Up; This is a very Lushed-up post, so bear with me!) This Ballistic is one of my absolute favourite products from Lush, so when the Christmas stock arrives, I always rush in to get these beauties. It has a champagne scent, which I love, and as it fizzes, it sends tiny little stars into the water, which is so pretty! 



See?  It makes the water an amazing blue colour!

After the Ballistic has fizzed out, I used the Lush Magic Wand Bubble Bar to add a some bubbles to my bath. These bubbles are scented with Snow Fairy, which adds such a lovely smell to the whole room! I always think having bubbles makes your bath a little fancier, and they make everything just a little bit prettier. Now that everything's fizzed up and bubbly, I'll light some candles, pop on a YouTube video or start reading a blog post, hop in and let myself unwind and relax. (I'm watching Zoella's: What's in my bag video & I love reading MadieGrace)

Bubble Bar pre-bubbles. 

I really love catching up on YouTube and Blogs in the bath. Just
make sure you do it where it won't fall in!

After I feel that my skin is soft and smooth, everything is off my mind, and I'm as happy as a clam, I'll get out, dry off, and this is the point where I decide to have a face mask. I'm using the Lush Cupcake Fresh Face Mask, which is amazing for teenage and oily skin. I leave it on for five minutes, wash it off and my face feels amazing, and smells like chocolate! With my session almost complete, I pop on my eos lip balm in Sweet Mint, because your lips need a little TLC too.

Mmmm! Only thing better than eating chocolate is
putting it on your face!

Although I love all my eos products, this one 
I think is the most hydrating.

And that is my mini pamper session complete! I hoped you like it, and I will see you next week. I you'd like to see anything in particular post-wise, please let me know in the comments! Goodbye!
