Sunday Funday

Hi everyone,

How've you spent your Sunday? Mine was a nice lay in followed by a bit of a workout at the gym and then a lovely home made curry, now me and my family are sitting down to watch a film :)

I thought I would do a 10 facts about me post so you can all get to know me more! 

1. My name is Bethany Louise and I am 18 and a half years old (I had to put the half in there) aha!

2. I love anything science orientated... Even though I love beauty science fascinates me and so do documentaries.

3. I have an obsession with shopping, whether it is makeup or clothes I have to have a look round the shops at least once a week ... And I normally find clothes I love when I can't afford it :(

4. I used to be a bigger girl and I have lost a lot of weight (I will go into a lot more detail in a later post)

5. I love zombies! Anything to do with them I want to watch or re create! I watch the walking dead religiously and I love it! I would actually love to be a walker in it one day (I'm a saddo I know) 

6. My hair is naturally curly and ginger and I looked like Annie as a baby.

7. I left my fashion course at college after just a year and went out to work on an apprenticeship. I then left that after 9 months to work in creative support at a greetings cards company and I love it. I cut and stick for a living.

8. I'm super loud and super shy all in one! The first time I meet people I tend to be really quiet or I talk so much I don't even know what I'm saying I just over compensate nerves with confidence hehe! 

9. I'm really close to my mum and she is literally my best friend I don't know how I would survive if I didn't have her. We go to the gym together, shop together and even go on holiday together!

10. Last but not least I'm crazy about art and design! I love buying new paints and markers to just go crazy with! I enjoy drawing on shoes and making them quirky and personal... I don't know why it's just something I did one day and done ever since :)

I hope this post has been a bit of a different read for you guys and I hope it's helped you understand me more! 

Till next time

Partial Solar Eclipse

Hi Everyone,

A bit of a geeky science post but did you guys witness the partial solar eclipse this morning? I loved seeing it and I even managed to capture it in photographs yay!

Below are a couple of photos showing the progression of it happening! I have to admit it was weird because it had just got light and then it was like watching the sunset again and then watch it come up again.

Till next time my lovelies

I'm here

Hi everyone,

I am so so sorry about the non existent posts over the last 2 months :( I know I have a lot of explaining to do! I still love my beauty and blogging I've just had a lot going on :(

Firstly I have been ill a lot recently and it has been an unpleasant time, I'm not going to go into too much detail because, well it's private and I hope you appreciate that :)

Secondly I've not been able to log in... I sound like a complete idiot ha! My phone broke and when I kept trying to log on on my laptop I couldn't get on! Anyway I have the iPhone 6 plus now so phone blogging should come with ease! Hallelujah! 

I am going to be posting as often as I can and about a variety of things, I did originally say I wanted my blog to be about beauty, yes I will still review and post about products but the last couple months have made me realise I want to talk about life and well my lifestyle, things that bother me or my opinion on things. Just general day to day life :) I know I will probably end up babbling about small things but that's what I love... Telling everyone how I feel, what I'm thinking etc 

I hope you lot will love my blog as much as I will! 

Much love

Christmas and New Year

Hi everyone,

HAPPY NEW YEAR! I haven't posted since mid December because I was away in Tenerife with my family for Christmas and there was no Internet :(  I'm back now though! Yay!

This is a bit of a different post really. I wanted to share with you a before and after photo of my weightloss - it's been a year and what a year it's been! I started with healthy eating and going to the gym and lost about a stone and a half however I seemed to stick and I couldn't shift anymore pounds! I joined slimming world about 5 months ago and it was the best decision I have ever made!!! In 5 months I've lost a stone and a half with a holiday, birthdays and Christmas party's inbetween! I'm excited to start my new year with these guys and I will post on here about food and things as well as beauty! 

My advice to anyone wanting to lose weight is to look for their closest slimming world group and sign up! The support is incredible and you can eat whatever you like! Enjoy my lovelies!

New Handbag

Hi everyone,

I'm so so sorry that I haven't posted in over a week, work has just been so stressful! Thankfully a bit of retail therapy has helped chill me out and well, feel better :)

I bought a new bag! I know that doesn't sound like the most exciting thing to read about but it's a massive deal for me! For 4 months I have hunted high and low to find a bag (at a reasonable price) that matches every single outfit I could wear (I just can't get my head round changing bags on a daily basis!), turns out Dune came up with the goods! It cost me £52 in the sale!

My favourite thing about this bag is how it has white, brown and black on it with the little bit of gold to just add a bit of style and class to the bag! It goes with everything and surprisingly holds a lot of stuff! I can fit a bottle of water and my lunch in it ( I'm too lazy to pack another bag ha) along with my makeup, purse, keys etc

I really can not comment on the longevity of the bag as of yet as I've only had it a week, but if my mums is anything to go by it'll be sticking around for a while!

I did buy some new clothes as well when I went shopping, as I have lost nearly a stone and a half in weight so keep an eye out for my OOTD's, I'm in love with my new t-shirts!

Again I apologise for a delay in posts! I promise to upload another one in the next few days for you, to make up for the lost time!

Love

BethanyLouise xx
