Camden

Yesterday me and my sister decided to go to Camden Lock to explore the markets and I realised just how much it has changed in the space of a year. A big part of the market was destroyed so that a school could be built and due to a fire the stables has changed and I am forever finding myself getting lost. Despite this there is still so much to see with the variety of shops and market stalls selling everything fromclothes, comics and vintage toys and a enough international cuisine to fill you up for life.
As for the part of the market that was demolished the wall that blocks it off has been painted with artwork that represents the best of Camden.

            I always have my hair down so I decided to experiment by doing two high buns and they are my
            new favourite thing. This hairstyle really goes well with 80s and 90s look that I went with.

How To Look The Best At Everything (Benefit) Review.

Whilst I was on holiday In LA I really wanted to treat myself to some more more pricier make-up and I always wanted to try the brand Benefit so I decided to start of with the how to look the best at everything set which comes with a tube of porefessional cream, foundation, concealer and finishing powder. Overall I am very happy with this set each Item compliments the other and really gives full coverage all day long. I have been struggling for a while to find a product that gives me coverage as I have got some ache scaring but since using this It Is barely noticeable.

Another thing that won me over was the beautiful packaging, all of Benefits products have really pretty packaging It has a vintage feel to It and also gives you the feeling that you are buying quality Items as that Is very Important when buying make-up after all you are putting It on your skin. Another great thing Is that this set comes with a tips and tricks booklet to help you If you are unsure of what to do. Overall I give this set a 5 out of 5 rating and strongly recommend It If you struggle to full get full coverage with other foundation
 products. Benefit have a variety of products such as foundations, lip sticks, eye liners, mascaras and perfumes and more so If you looking for these then benefit If your go to place for quality beautifully packaged products.

The Gabriella Lindley (velvetgh0st) Collection From Primark.

  

   Yesterday was the launch of the new bedroom collection at Primark by Youtuber Gabriella Lindley (velvetgh0st), I was very excited for this collection as It Is very cat themed so of course I had to go and get It the second It was available.The collection has a variety of things Including bedding,cushions,mugs, a smoothie cup, a sleeping mask, fairy lights, a door hook with "sparkle like a diamond" and a frame with "being yourself Is the prettiest thing you can be". I decided to get the bedding and the cushions but I found the whole collection to be so adorable, high quality and unique to anything Primark has had In past home ware collections.

The attention to detail on the packaging has been very well done I love the mix of the black and pink fonts with the pattern that's used on a lot of the products and of course the adorable font used for Gabriella's name and I love how It has some texture to It.
The fabric on the bedding Is really soft and really comfortable to sleep In and really brings some colour Into your room, I love how the quilt cover has the triangular pattern with pastel colours and the pillows have a cats face on with "lets sleep In" written on It because It keeps with the cat theme within the collection without It being to much. The cushions are very comfortable and match nicely with the bedding and really do complete the bed If you are someone who likes having cushions on show.


 Overall I rate this collection 10 out of 10 for good quality,design and also the prices of each Item are very reasonable and affordable so If you are a cat lover or just looking for new bedding or bedroom Items then I strongly recommend this collection.

"By The Sea, Wouldn't That Be Smashing"

Brighton Beach

Brighton Pier

 Last week I went on a day trip to the seaside town Brighton for my sisters birthday and for the first time and really enjoyed It. There was so much to do and with limited time we had a lot to jam pack In to one day and we managed to do It. Firstly we took a walk along the pier to see the popular attractions and arcades, The pier had two fairly big arcades on It filled with your favourite arcades games like the classic 2p machines and who can forget struggle we all go through to win a toy from the claw machine. If you are a person who loves rides then you will enjoy the attractions the pier has to offer as It has rides to cater to everyone from merry go rounds to roller coasters for all those thrill seekers out there, If you are planning to go on multiple rides then I strongly recommend getting the £20 wrist band which will get you on all the rides as many times  as you want.

Here I am wearing a Little Mermaid bow from Hot Topic

 After exploring the pier we went and sat on the beach and with It being a stone beach It wasn't the most comfortable place but It was still nice with the waves splashing against the shore and the smell of seaweed and fish In the air It Is just what you want to see and hear when you go to the seaside.




                                               

The Laines

ChoccyWockyDooDah

 After spending sometime on the beach we decided to get some lunch at Ed's Diner which Is great If you love that 50's American diner feel and this followed with some exploring of what shops Brighton had to offer and we happy find lots good shops like TopShop, H&M at Churchill's Square and many more. We also discovered the Laines which are filled with lots Independent cake shops, Antique shops and the Famous ChoccyWoccyDooDah shop which was filled with many people waiting to go In their cafe and to purchase unique chocolate treats, I recommend you visit you will want to eat It all. Unfortunately we didn't get to see the North Laine which Is filled with Vintage shops and Independent Business's selling art, photos and more I will definitely be blogging about It on my next visit. 


 We left to come back to London at 5pm to come home and after a 2 and a half hour coach journey to Victoria we had to endure  another two journey that would usually take half an hour due to the Tube strike but despite that It was a lovely day and I can't to return.

When A British Girl Discovers Hot Topic.

During my trip to California I discovered Hot Topic which Is an alternative clothes shop and unfortunately we do not get It here In the UK unless we pay silly amounts for shipping. As soon as I stepped In I got really carried away because of just how much Disney stuff they had along with a few other things and the prices were really good also. When I got home I decided I would style all the pieces that I purchased.

"Everyone's Mad Here" - Cheshire Cat

1. Crazy Cat Lady

 Here I am wearing a "You've Cat To Be Kitten Me Right Meow" t-shirt from Hot Topic and I have styled It with a floral daisy skirt from Urban Outfitters and a pair of adorable cat Vans from the Vans store In downtown Santa Monica, but fear not British readers you can get these shoes here In the UK In the shoe shop Schuh for about 40-50 pounds.

                     

"Soft Kitty, Warm Kitty Little Ball Of Fur" 

   
                              
  Here I am wearing a vintage style cat t-shirt that says "i will end u." from Hot Topic and I styled it with a pair of black high waisted shorts from Primark which compliments the t-shirt as It Is quite long. I then added a vintage long denim shirt from the East End Thrift Store and a pair of adorable cat suspender tights which I found on Amazon and completed the outfit with a pair of Dr Martens.

This was one of my favourite finds In Hot Topic because you see It In the shop and think Its a cute cat top and you pick It up and see the slogan at the bottom It had me laughing so I had to get It.


                   

2. "It's A Pity And A Sin She Doesn't Quite Fit In"

 Here I am wearing a Belle from Walt Disney's Beauty And The Beast crop top and a pair of plimsoll style shoes with a stain glass movie design from the same film, both of these are from Hot Topic. I styled them with a pair of vintage mom jeans from RokIt and a pink over sized shirt from the East End Store. I completed this look by keeping with the Beauty And The Beast theme by adding a necklace that I created with Mrs Potts's on it.

There Maybe Something There That Wasn't There Before."

         

                                                           


3. "At Last I See The Light"

Here I am wearing a Tangled Jumper with Flynn Rider and Rapunzel on the front which Is from Hot Topic and styled It with vintage mom jeans from RokIt.

"When Will My Life Begin"

If you are a lover of alternative fashion and Disney then you will love Hot Topic and I for one fell In love with this store whilst I was In Hollywood, all we can do Is hope that Hot Topic comes to the UK.
