A very late 2015 goals list??

Hiiii everyone!

So today I'm bringing you my goals that I would like to achieve in 2015, some being easy and others being not so realistic. So here I go!

1. Leave sixthform with grades I'm happy about.
2. Try and get out a bit more. (I'm kind of a couch potato)
3. Go blonder with my hair. (I had a few highlights a few months ago and I've began to realise that having blonde hair really suits my skin tone)
4. Get Harry Styles to notice me. (Aka a thumbs up again, or a follow on twitter)
5. Start wearing more adventurous things.
6. Stop caring what other people think of me. 
7. Stop asking for reassurance and know that I probably look fine. 
8. Visit more internet friends. (I have quite a few plans this year so fingers crossed!)
9. Meet Harry Styles (A girls gotta dream big alright)
10. Lose a bit of weight.
11. Have more confidence when it comes to going out with no makeup on.
12. Get a tattoo. 
13. Go to more concerts.
14. Put a lot of work into blogging and see how far I get by the end of the year.
14. Get a decent camera and take more pictures.
15. Grow my nails.
16. Selling a painting or drawing.
17. Live more minimally!

So that was a bunch of things that I'd like the achieve this year, and hopefully by the end of the year I can look back on this post and look at the things I might have achieved.

Hope you enjoyed this post and if you have any goals, feel free to leave a comment!

Clothespiration??

Hiiii, Leah here!!

I haven't posted in months due school and other things in my life, but today I'm back just to share where I get my inspiration for clothing and the way I'd certainly like to dress.


First things first are these trousers, and they may not meet some peoples taste of clothing but to me, the pin stripe is the coolest pattern ever. If anyone could please find me a pair of bottoms that are almost identical to these, I will love you foreverrrrr!


I just love the casual/laid back look that makes you look like you've actually put effort into your outfit that day when in reality you've thrown on a basic tee, along with black skinnies and an oversized flannel.


Statement clutches. Ahhhh, I can just imagine this paired with a LBD. Clutch bags bring an outfit together and they also look super cute if you pair them the right way.






I'm no fashion expert but I'm pretty sure pointed chelsea boots give the illusion of elongated legs, and who wouldn't want long legs?? I'm definitely going to be buying myself a pair of these soon!


Anyways, that's all for today, I hope you enjoyed this sweet and simple blog post, but expect to see me posting a bit more!

Love always,

Skincare Haul!

Hi guys! So today I just popped into town with the fam as it is summer and I should probably get out a bit more, and while I was there I went to the 99p store to kill some time while my father and brothers were in a different shop. While looking at the skincare section I noticed they had some pretty good brand names and products that I'd never tried before. I've been pretty bad lately with taking my makeup off, some nights I'll use wet wipes to take my makeup off or I'll simply just be lazy and do it the morning after. (ughy I know). Me being me, I wanted to pick everything up but I limited it down to 3 things. For about 2-3 years now I've suffered with bad skin and I've tried way too many products to clear it up. So now I'm on a roll to improve my skin, so I'm going to try out using these!



I was instantly drawn to this when I noticed it said 'pink grapefruit' (and also maybe because of the colour)It also smells amazing!

 
I was looking for something to clean my pores and I found this and I thought why not?!





I was on the hunt for a moisturizer that will help my skin to look healthy and there was so many to choose from. I really don't know what my skin type is as some days it'll be really dry and the next it will be oily, maybe combination? I don't know. It doesn't say it's a moisturizer on the front but I read the back and it says it "leaves the skin feeling moisturized" and "helps to restore the skins natural glow" or something like that. It's also mattifying and leaves the skin feeling soft. So I'm going to give this a try!

I'm going to give each of these products a try and see how I get on with them, so you might see some mini reviews on the way soon!!

Thanks for reading!

Hair Inspiration!

So I'm pretty fussy about my hair and what I like it to look like, so here's a few pictures of hairstyles that inspire me!

 Kylie Jenner is number one on my list, like she doesn't have to do anything with her hair and it still looks perfect!! (sigh)

Here's another one, She makes me want to go chocolate brown so bad, and those sunglasses rock.


Not the best quality, but Lou Teasdale (One Directions hair & makeup artist) has been a massive inspiration of mine for a long time. She makes me want to go pastel so bad, but I'm just not prepared for the damage that comes along with it. Maybe one day soon though!


Yet again another pastel colour, its just perfect aghhh.

 
  Lily Collins' hair is just so natural and "care free" looking, and I'm really loving those types of styles at the minute as you can tell!!


And last but not least is Lily Melrose. This is actually the style I've been wearing the past few days as it's so quick and easy. All I do to achieve this look is to quickly run the straighteners through my hair to create loose curls, use some salt spray, and finish with hair spray.

Summer walk!

So on Wednesday I took my dog for a walk up the mountain along with my parents and younger sister! Sometimes I forget that all of this is right outside my house.



I tried getting real close to the lamb and it's mother but they ran away (sigh)
    

A view of the valley I live in!



Poppy being extra posy!!



Probably the brightest flower up the mountain 


Suppose you can call this the 'Brick Wall of Nantymoel'

So that's it for today's blog post, it's not what I'd usually post but I hope you liked it!

Thanks for reading!

Chill day!

We all have those days where we just have no motivation to go out (me everyday) but on those days do you ever just see a picture or watch a video that makes you want to do your hair and makeup for no apparent reason at all?! Well that's exactly what I done today. 

Apparently I was feeling extra posy today, so here's a couple of crappy webcam pictures I took! Will maybe go out soon to catch the last of the sunlight, who knows?!
