Now everyone is travelling on their Summer holidays, it is getting me all excited for my very own in October. I have decided to put together a lust list of travel accessorises for some inspiration for myself and for you if you are struggling to find some things to take along on your travels.
2. I already have one travel cup, but I just fancied the look of this one from Debenhams.
3. Does anybody else remember one of Zoella's Youtube videos where she talks about what she was travelling with to Florida, well she had this Ted Baker suitcase and I was looking around the internet for ages for it, I finally found it today. I am in need of a new suitcase and this one would be perfect for future trips away.
4. Hand creams are always essential, I love having soft hands. I carry around a tube of hand cream in my bag everywhere I go. I love The Body Shop's hand creams as they always smell amazing and keep my hands soft and moisturised. The coconut one is my favourite for the Summer holidays.
5. A notebook is always useful if you are organising something for your trip away or just to keep note of everything you have with you. Being a forgetful person sometimes like myself I find it so much easier to write everything down and look back to it if I need to remember things. I have my eye on this one from Kate Spade which is called 'a favourite things notebook'.
6. To add some bright colours to my handbag I went for this travel card holder from Oliver Bonas in yellow. Card holders have become so useful for me for a while now. I like to keep my loyalty cards and bank card separately from everything else so If I was to carry around important things on my travels this would be perfect for it.
7. Passport holders are really important for your holidays and having a nice pretty one is essential aswell to me. I love this one from John Lewis with the rose gold letters saying "i'm outta here".
8. To match the passport holder I found the travel luggage tag. Adding something like this would make it so easier to spot your case on the luggage carousel. This one is from Selfridges.
9. Can't beat going away on holiday with a new pair of sunglasses, I couldn't bare to spend so much money on Prada sunglasses (I wish I had the money to) but I did find these on Ebay for just £2.55, what a bargain!
10. Lastly the same reason as the sunglasses, it is always great to walk through the airport with new accessorises and a new bag always makes any girl feel good. I love this tote shoulder bag from Ebay in beige.

Everyone must know about Pokemon Go by now surely, right? Well I am obsessed! I think it is great as it is getting all ages out and about, socialising (as long as people stay safe) and getting some exercise. I have now enjoyed walking to work everyday and not getting the bus as I just catch Pokemon's along the way. I have caught so many favourites at the moment but I am currently waiting on my Pikachu and when I do it will be the best day ever. You can download the app on an Android phone.
Shower time has been a big thing for me especially as the hot summer days and nights have approached us. I think I have talked about Imperial Leathers shower gels before but I have been loving two of their newish products recently. For £1 a bottle you can't go wrong! The first one being Ylang Ylang Juniper this is just summer in a bottle, it smells incredible. The second one is Fruit Salad which is very sweet and is actually my top favourite right now.
Also in my shower I have a facial wash that all the time and that is Simple's Kind To Skin Moisturising Facial Wash. Ever since I started using this again my skin has cleared up from blemishes and spots. When you apply it with water it buffs into your skin and makes it super soft. It's great if you have sensitive skin like myself.
Fragrances is a must for the summer time, just a little spray goes a long way throughout your day. I have been loving Zoella's Sweet Inspirations Body Mist. I have done a full review on this product which you can see here. The compliments I have been getting from friends and family when I wear this fragrance is incredible. It is the perfect scent for this summer. Lastly I have been adoring Bronnley's Zealous Flower again. It smells of pear and mandarin which is also perfect for the summer.

01. Invest in some more off the shoulder shoulder tops. I really like this one from ASOS.
02. Go on a spending ban for 2 months. Saving a bit of money will help go towards my trip to Barcelona in October and maybe a few shopping trips.
03. Wear less make-up now the weather is starting to brighten up in the UK.
04. Try out some cute summer hairstyles. I am loving doing braids at the moment and high pony tails. Pinterest is great for getting some inspiration.
05. Start eating properly and drink more water. It is all about watermelon, peaches and strawberries!
06. Get out the NYX butter glosses. I am loving Vanilla Cream Pie.
07. Start wearing my pretty sandals.
08. Put my Body Shop Mango Body Sorbet in the fridge ready for those hot days to cool down my skin.
09. When It has been warm outside and I am heading for the gym, I have to remember to bring my swimsuit so I can go into the swimming pool.
10. Keep reading my books. Have those long baths that I deserve. Or in this heat, cold showers are on the cards.

Two outfit posts in a row, whattt! But I thought I would share with you an outfit I have been loving so much. Also a few people asked me what I was wearing and where my bomber jacket was from. I got it from Ebay for £5! Sadly I cannot find it online anymore, but it's worth looking for if you're a lover of Ebay like myself. It has sheer sleeves which looks pretty if you're just wearing a vest top underneath to show your arms. I took inspiration from one of Kate's outfits on Instagram. If you are interested in what I am wearing you can find the links below.

Hello from Devon. Today I thought I would bring you an outfit post, one that I have been loving. I was recently in New Look browsing their summer sale which had up to 60% off and I came across so many lovely items, but only came out with a couple. Some that I am planning on taking to Barcelona with me in October. So just a little heads up that this outfit does contain a lot of New Look.

Nothing I love more nowadays is settling down into bed in the evening with a good book. There's something about reading a book after you have had a busy day at work that makes you feel calm for a few hours! Most recently I have been putting my phone down at night and focus on a book instead as before when I used to scroll through my phone it took over my sleeping pattern. But settling with a book to read makes you lose yourself for a while.
Last month I got rid of so many books that I had read but thought I would give them to charity shops for someone else to have a feel-good read instead. So I did a bit of research for a couple of new books and here are the ones I have on my pile...
Fantastic Beasts & Where To Find Them - I am very excited to have this book beside my bed at the moment. J.K Rowling is truly one of the real great writers. This is a nice little addition to the other Harry Potter books. This book explains all the beasts in the Harry Potter kingdom along with illustrations and Rowlings bouncy style of writing we all know and love. I have pre-ordered the original screenplay book of fantastic beasts so I am excited for that one to arrive.
The Revenant - As I had seen the film not so long ago, I wanted to get the book soon after. I'm worried I might not get as hooked as I do with some books as some friends have told me it's really hard to follow. But if you have read this book, please give me a little review below. I would be interested in what you thought.
Always With Love - It has finally arrived and I couldn't be happier. I love Giovanna Fletchers books as they tug at the heart strings; between characters like Billy and Me with new ones included to make us ooh and aah, laugh out loud or cry just a little tear or two. I have already heard great things about this one and I cannot wait to start it.
What Would Audrey Do? - This book has been sitting on my bookcase for a while now and I think it's about time I started reading it. Audrey Hepburn has always been a big part of my childhood. Going to my nans house and watching Roman Holiday on repeat was a highlight for me. Her style, looks and personality had me mesmerised. When I saw this book on Amazon it was in my basket right away. I'm really interested to know more about Audrey so reading this will help me to my homework on her life.
Have you read any of these?

I've recently started back at my local gym and so far it has been hard. Some people who know me will look at me and say "why are you joining the gym? you're skinny!", well I think that I'm not near as slim and toned as I would like to be and that's why I have joined. I have always wanted to get fitter, but I just couldn't motivate myself. When I worked myself up to go to the gym most recently (on my own) I didn't know what I was doing. I think we can all agree that the gym is a scary place - all these strong girls with their abs, and the buff guys lifting weights. Gaining confidence in the gym has been one of the best things I have done so far this month. Here are some tips if you are thinking about joining the gym again or if its your first time:
02. Set a schedule and stick to it: Calendar apps on your phone are your friends. Schedule your workouts like they are important meetings at work that you w0uld never miss. Write it down, pick a time and don't cancel on yourself. You are someone who follows through. Don't let yourself down.
03. Start your day with a win: A new morning is the perfect time for a fresh start and what better way to start it than like a winner. Have a badass morning routine and you will set the tone for a productive, positive day.
04. Give it 72 hours: If you are still dealing with cravings of sugar in your system and that will go away in 72 hours for most people, as will bloating. So next time you have one of those weekends and you are ready to get back on track, you are in it for 72 hours before judging yourself.
05. Eating healthy and working out is simple: Don't over-complicate it to the point it consumes you. The people who figure out how to enjoy it and make it an abundant and replenishing part of their lives are the real winners.

Zoella Le Fizz (Fragranced Bath Fizzer) - As much as I love to buy the dramatic bath bombs from Lush, sometimes you just can't beat some bath salts or even fizzlers. I tried out Zoella's Tutti Fruity Bath Fizzers from her last range and they were my favourite. They are still the same as the other bath fizzer's but the scent has changed.
Zoella Double Creme Body Cream - Now when I heard that this was Macaroon scented, I was over the moon! It's enriched with sweet almond oil, honey and cacao. It is a more thicker creme to the last range, it feels a lot more hydrating and cooling on the skin.
Zoella Sugar Dip (Scented Bath Salt Granules) - The packaging on this is so so pretty. It really caught my eye. Like I said before I do like bath salts, and these were really nice to use. Especially with the bath latte. Brings out a sweet smell into your bathroom.
Zoella Bath Latte - This looks lovely in my bathroom along with all my other products. I would definitely keep using this with the sugar dip bath salts as it enchants the smell.
Zoella Fragrance Body Mist - Now onto my favourite out of them all. This mist certainly lasts a long time. The smell reminds me of Summer instantly! Spraying a tiny bit of this onto your body after using the double creme makes it last longer throughout the day.
What do you think of Zoella's new beauty products?

01. Find that Summer smoothie recipe. Something that's fresh with strawberries, lime or raspberries. Currently making a board on Pinterest to help me! You can see it here.
02. Attend a Yoga Class. It needs to happen.
03. Do some cute D.I.Y's that I have found on Pinterest.
04. Get my calming colouring book out and actually spend time colouring in it.
05. Try fake tanning. Really want to try out the *Vita Liberata Self Tan* that I was kindly sent.
06. Binge watch a TV series. If you have one that you like, let me know. p.s not Game Of Thrones.
07. Treat myself to these pretzel printed pyjamas from ASOS!
08. Plan a cute picnic. Try and up my game on Zoella's recent one. *crying emoji* It is goals.

Is it not scaring anybody else how fast this year is going? I've never known a year to go so quick. So here I am today to tell you what I have been loving all of May...
Primark Heart Pizza Tee (Similar Here) - Primark are killing it this Summer especially with these t-shirts. I picked up this gem for £5 (I think it was) which has a heart with the word "pizza" inside it. I bloomin' love pizza so this tee was perfect for me. I also picked up a taco one which is currently my most worn t-shirt. If you're ever in Primark, I suggest you pick up a few of these before they disappear.
Revlon Dramatic Definition Mascara - A mascara I have added in my make-up routine is this mascara from Revlon that I got in one of my recent Glossy Boxes. This mascara is great for length, you also get zero clumps which is a bonus for me as I have had mascara's in the past that have done that to me. I will probably repurchase this!
Essie Nail Polish In "Sunshine State Of Mind" - Onto a nail polish that I did include in recent post about my recent buys is this one from Essie. I haven't stopped coating this on my nails, it is my Summer nail colour. I would recommend you pick this one up if you're ever in Boots.
Lush Eau Roma Toner Water - I was looking in my 'beauty drawer' one day and I came across my bottle of the Eau Roma Toner Water from Lush, so I started using it again and now I am in love with it again. This has made my skin happier again and luckily It was still a full bottle so I still have a lot more use out of it.
MAC Matte Lipstick In "Please Me" - I made a little MAC purchase and one of them included this matte lipstick in 'please me' which is a rosy tinted pink colour. For those looking for a great everyday pink that's not too bright and attention-seeking but still vibrant and face-brightening, please me is a winner.
