Visiting | Blackgang Chine

Visiting | Blackgang Chine

Hiya! 

A couple of weeks ago my mum, dad, little sister, nephew and I went to a place called Blackgang Chine. For those of you who have no idea what it is, apparently its the UK's oldest amusement park. Basically its just full of loads of random attractions and a few small rides. I always used to go there as a child but as it's right on the edge of a continuously falling cliff a lot of it has gone or changed from when I went. Anyway, whilst I was there, I took loads of photos so I thought I would share them with you or my future self. Sorry they're only taken on my iPhone!

Listen To | Justin Bieber - What Do You Mean

Surprise, Justin Bieber has a new song and the online world has been raving about the it since the lyric video found its way online. Obviously Bieber has made a name for himself after Baby. He definitely divided opinions - like Marmite - love or hate him. I've never been a massive fan of Justin but recently he's definitely grown up and his music has taken a much more mature approach. 

The new song What Do You Mean? Is completely different from previous tracks. I mean the lyrics are still very similar and related to girls but it's not as irritating as previous tracks. Over the past couple of years he's taken his music in a different direction. For me it started with his 2013 track Confident which I found to be more hip hop and my sort of thing in comparison to his earlier stuff. I then got drawn to his voice after singing vocals on the chart topping Skrillex and Diplo song Where Are Ü Now - I also think this is where a lot of people realised he's not the 16 year old young girl heartthrob he used to be.

Guest Post | About Princesses and Rebels

Hello to all the beautiful people out there! I am Sally, nice to meet you. 

Before I start telling you all the details that no one wants to know - long story short: I have to do an internship in England: 6 weeks, 4 days a week, 10 hours a day. Sounds fun, right? Originally, I wanted to do it in a publishing house but that didn't work out because they wanted me to work there for either 2 weeks or 6 months and as you can see: that is nowhere near 6 weeks. I checked my professor's list of possible work experience places again and saw that social work is acceptable as well. Thanks to Google I found a Holiday Club for children, emailed them and they were happy to have me. I wish I would have been as excited as they were but I an not a patient person, so working with children has never been my dream. I was just glad that I finally found a place where I could work and therefore finish my university course. 

Rant | Being a successful blogger

Rant | Being a successful blogger

Hiya! I would like to just say before you read this, I do not mean to offend anybody. It's my blog so this is where I shall vent. If you don't agree with what I say then I would love to hear your opinions on this. Actually, even if you do agree, what are you opinions? 

For me I feel like all of the 'big' or 'successful' blogs (if that's what you call them) all have the same thing in common. They're all super trendy and have flash cameras, fashion bloggers have a PA on hand to take pictures of them at any point (slight over exaggeration I know) and they all seem to never have an issue with money. Hence why they always have the latest clothes, make up and accessories. Now maybe it's just me but when I get my hard earned money at the end of each month the last thing on my mind is buying the lasted things to brag about online. I will say, of course I buy myself things but I hardly ever blog about it.

Do these people have amazingly paid jobs? Obviously I know some get paid to blog but what about before that, did they all have loads of money to spare from the beginning. Maybe I'm the only one who has to pay bills and buy food, I highly doubt it.

My Week in Pictures | 23rd August 2015

Hiya! Its that time of the week again. How has your week been? 

Mine has been pretty good. I would like to apologise in advance for the cake photos. I've done loads of baking this week and I think I'm actually starting to get better at it! 

This is the view from my window, I never realised actually how pretty it is. Also I can't believe there are so amy trees! 

Guest Post | My Favourite Summer Trends

Guest Post | My Favourite Summer Trends

Trends, tendencies… During every season there are some pieces that stand from all the others. Those pieces that we find almost everywhere, on the streets, the stores, the internet…

Today I’m here to talk about my favorite trends of this summer. I have to say that during summer I love to wear bohemian outfits, the ones that reminds us of festivals and days on the beach.

This is probably my favourite trend of this summer. You can see it everywhere! Tops, jackets, skirts, shoes.. And also in different colours. Nude, camel, black, white, grey.. Seriously, I love this trend and mostly in bohemian outfits. It looks amaziiiiinggg!

Book Review | Charlotte Crosby - Me Me Me

For those of you who don't know who Charlotte Crosby is, I'm guessing you've sheltered your life away from Geordie Shore - I can't really say I blame you. She's the girl who still wee's herself at 25 and lost so much weight from a '3 minute belly blitz' workout DVD.

My Week in Pictures | 16th August 2015

Hiya lovelies! 

How has your week been? It feels like this week has gone so long! Just me? 

Anyway, this week I think I have done quite a lot of stuff but probably nothing that is very interesting for the blogging world. So here goes, my phone gallery from the past week... 

Starting YouTube?!?

Starting YouTube?!?

Hiya Lovelies! 

So after ALOT of thought and saying no, I've come to the road where I now want to ask you what you guys think about me starting a YouTube channel.  I mean I'm pretty scared about the whole thing and it might be really boring for you guys.  I'm not an interesting person so why would anyone want to watch videos of me!? 

Anyway, I'm still not 100% sure on what kind of content I would do but I've reached a point on my blog where I want more and for me I think maybe a couple videos might spice things up a bit.  What do you think?

Listen To | Nola Wren - Venom

Hiya! 
For those of you who don't know I love listening to new music. It makes sense that because I have a blog, that I occasionally share some new tracks I've found with the world. 

Do you like Haim, the girl pop rock trio from the US? I definitely think you need to give this track a listen, it reminds me a lot of some of their work but for me I find it more kick ass than Haim. I think I'm starting to love the electro-pop sound because for me this song just does it, even from the first listen.

My Week in Pictures | 9th August 2015

Hiya! How are you doing this week? 

It's currently Sunday night and it's safe to say, this week has killed me. I am so tired and for some reason I keep waking up super early! 

I'd just like to say quick, I apologise for the lack of interesting photos this week. I know I said I have been busy but the things I've been doing weren't really picturable (is that a work. I think I just created it.)

Current Playlist | August 2015

Current Playlist | August 2015

Hiya!

So the other day I was looking back at old blog posts and I came across my current playlist posts. Who knows why I stopped them but here I am starting them up again.

I'm just going to write a list of the songs I am loving at the moment and then add a Spotify playlist below if you want to check out any of the tracks.

Guest Post | Particularly Preposterous Packaging Day

Hi, I'm Mike, and Abbie has kindly agreed to let me guest post on her blog today.

What I'm going to blog about is today.  If you're not aware, it's Friday, names after Frigg, the wife of Odin in Norse mythology.  Apparently 1,554 years ago the Roman Emperor Majorian was beheaded (I now feel bad, because until I searched for "August 7" on Wikipedia I didn't even know that there was a Roman Emperor called Majorian, and I'm sure if you said to the chap about 1,556 years ago "You know that you're currently ruling the Roman Empire?  In the future lots of people won't even know that you ever existed" it would have definitely dented his ego)

Hiya! Well I'm back! How are you? 

Here's a collection of photos I have since I last posted a week in pictures so I think it's two weeks instead of one. 

The Love/Hate Tag

The Love/Hate Tag

Hiya! 

I'm so excited to be doing this post!! I'd like to thank one of my favourite bloggers Along Came Molli for tagging me.

The love/hate tag is very simple - list 10 things you love and 10 things you hate. Then tag others, simple. Lets get started.
