What I got for Christmas!

I hope you all had a fabulous Christmas and got lots of nice things and ate some lovely food:) Here is just a few of my favourite things I got this year.

 -Japanese Cherry Blossom-
This is the Japanese Cherry Blossom voyage collection from the Body Shop. I absolutely love this scent; one of my favourites.

-if i stay & where she went-
If i stay has recently been released as a film in cinemas. I haven't seen it but got told it was quite good. I watched the trailer and I asked for the books for Christmas:) I still haven't read them.

-The Fault in our Stars film-
Of course I had to ask for this as I saw it at the cinema and read the book which I loved.

- Girl Online by Zoe Sugg-
I waited until Christmas to get this book and I was not disappointed. I've read it and loved it. The characters all had unique personalities and I really liked the storyline. Well done Zoe!

-Three, Never Been Better, 1989-
I asked for these three albums and I love them:) Three by Take That, Never Been Better by Olly Murs, 1989 by Taylor Swift.

-Teal Owl Cushion-
My friend gave me this as she knows I absolutely love teal and owls and cushions. It looks great in my room and I love it!

Thank you for reading! I hope you had an amazing break x

Top Five Books in 2014

Bonjour! Only 4 days until Christmas, isn't that crazy! And only 11 more days of 2014, where has this year gone? Looking back I thought that I have read a few really good books this year so I thought why not share them with you guys? Here are my top five favourite books of 2014!

Number 1:

 The Perks of being a Wallflower

This is an amazing young adult novel. It is the diary of a teenage boy as he goes through his years in high school. It includes all the ups and downs of school life, relationships and puberty.

Number 2:

 Reliquim

 This is the third in the Delirium trilogy and I have mentioned these books in a previous post but I just have to express again how well the storyline is put together. You beckon attached to the characters and you realise the conflict between types of people. This is a futuristic book, based in America and deserves as much attention as the Hunger Games.

Number 3:

The Book Thief

This is the story of a German girl living in the time of World War Two. It is narrated by death who catches people as they fall to their death. She comes to a new part of Germany and learns how to read. This book shows love, friendship and loss.

Number 4:

Looking for Alaska

Looking for Alaska is about a boy who goes to college and meets new people. He meets this girl named Alaska and of course falls in love then halfway through the book a big plot twist happens; I'm not going to spoil it though;)

Number 5:

Will Grayson, Will Grayson

 I really enjoyed this book, it was full of fun but had a hint of seriousness. One of the main characters has an amazing personality. It is about a boy who meets this other boy and then it just shows their relationship from there. SPOILER ALERT: The end is very happy and good:)

Thank you for reading my post. There are a lot more books I have read throughout 2014 but these are my very favourites. I would've included The Hunger Games trilogy or The Fault in our Stars but I read them in 2013:) 

Hope you have a good Christmas x

 

Barry M Goodie Bag

On Monday I was lucky enough to go to Clothes Show Live in Birmingham. If you don't know what this is, it's a fashion event in the Birmingham NEC building and thousands of teenagers and models around the UK go; you even see some celebrities! Including Pointlessblog, Jim Chapman and stars from Made in Chelsea. Unluckily though I went on Monday and Alfie and Jim had been there at the weekend so I didn't get a chance to meet them:( but I still had an amazing time! There is a huge main stage catwalk and a HUGE range of stalls. One of the items I purchased was the Barry M goodie bag which is what I will be showing you today:)

-Set of Six Nail Paints-

Left to right: Indigo, Pink Sapphire Glitter, Black Crackel, Atlantic Road textured, Coral, Venus Sunset magnetic

-Metallic Green Liquid Eyeliner-

-Coral Lip Gloss-

-Dazzle Dust-

Colours: 8, 90

-Black Glitter Eye Crayon-

-Glitter Coral Lip Lacquer Crayon-

That is all the products I received in my goodie bag. I thought overall it was a great haul of stuff! I will certainly be trying out a lot of these and I love how they gave you a range of nail varnishes:)
