My home away from home…

So after all the receiving of results recently, many people will be starting university in September! But although moving away is exciting, i feel you always need a ‘home away from home’; a cosy, safe place that you can run to when the world is just too much to handle.

Everyone has different taste, but

My most recent favourites! Micellar Cleansing Water & Organisation.

Recently, myself and George went on a little family shopping trip in Bristol, and although i went into town with my list of necessities, i wasn’t looking for anything in particular. But i obviously managed to pick up a few things…

Kiko Milano – Ultimate Pen Long Wear Eyeliner Review

Beauty

I have been using this wonderful little pen since i purchased it, and i would seriously recommend it to anyone! I very rarely wore eyeliner unless i was going on a night out as it just took too long to add into my morning routine, but since purchasing this eyeliner pen, that has all changed!

IMG_0384Im obsessed with painting my nails! And after seeing this shade on sale (even if i had ones similar) i just had to buy it! It was also from the quick dry range, which was a bonus!

KIKO MILANO Haul!

Recently i’ve been on a wonderful week long 20th birthday holiday to the beautiful city of Paris! It was just as incredible as i’d hoped, as we stayed within the Disney parks! Although Disneyland was as magical as always, we also spent a day in central Paris, and did a little bit of shopping (oops!). Luckily, the summer sales were on, and many bargains were found, including a handful of items from the wonderful brand KIKO MILANO! I couldnt believe the sales they had in there, and after spending forever in the store, i came out with 4 items.

The Summer of Flares!

Recently, i’ve left my university in Wales to come back home to Scotland for the summer, and unfortunately not been able to bring all of my clothes with me (as well as forgetting many many things), so i took a quick trip to TKMaxx in an attempt to find some of the essentials i really really needed! After successfully finding some gym wear, which i probably don’t need much more of but forgot to bring with me, i had a look at trousers and jeans as i constantly find myself in the same few pairs!

Lost

So the other day, I woke Kim up, got her into this dress, and asked her to run around our forest of a garden! Unfortunately as i haven’t used my camera in a while, the battery died, as well as the external flash… sooo not a lot could be done. However, I didn’t want to waste any photos taken and tried to save some of the super dark ones, which have created a spooky feel. Really want to do this again at some point with a full powered camera, and possibly in the sunshine – We’ll see.

Let me know what you think. I also made a super cute video from it, which you can view on my Instagram account (@lanaamayy) !!

Unpredictable Weather Days…

Student Life

IMG_0405So today, i was meant to have gone into town to run a few errands, but the Aberystwyth unpredictable weather has yet again got in the way… One minute its torrential rain, with crazy winds, and the next its sunny with clear blue skies, but still raining. I just don’t understand. As i don’t own a car, i can’t even drive where i need to go, and i live whats classed as out of town, so the walk isn’t the shortest!
