Hello Darling, 

I am back with another Etsy wishlist! These are one of my favourite type of posts to do and they usually get a really nice response, so I hope you enjoy this one as much as the others. I've now been through the seasons and a couple of the holidays so I've been on the hunt for other themes for this post. Since it's September and everyone is heading back to school and University, I've decided to do a University Finds. Partly, this is for me as I am also going back to Uni so really need to get some of these products and hopefully it will also help you. 

If you're new here and haven't read any of my past Etsy posts, I have a kind of series of Etsy wishlists where I include a variety of products that I have found on Etsy that fit a kind of theme. In this post everything has some connection with to going to University, so all 5 products hopefully will relate in some way. I try to find products with all different uses and price points, so hopefully there is something for everyone. Slight disclaimer, I usually try to find UK based sellers, just because it's easier for myself to actually buy them and have them shipped, but many of the sellers usually do have worldwide shipping, so if you're overseas you may also be able to get your hands on these products.

- Printable Daily Planner by CrossbowPrintables - 

If there's one thing you need to be at Uni it's organised. Saying that, it's probably the one thing you wont be. Not only do you have to juggle deadlines and lecture time tables, you also have daily life like paying bills and meal planning to think about. I used a bullet journal last year to try and keep organised but I found it became more hassle than stress as I had to draw up each week or month the page layout. So, this is a perfect alternative. I've found this beautiful printable from Crossbow Printables for £4.20, that means you can just print as many sheets as you want and put them inside your folders or put them in their own little ring binder or even stick them around your room and desk. I love this particular design as it has a to-do list so you can keep track of your tasks, a times box to keep track of events, meal planning and water tracking as well as some other cool features. This design would also enable you to time plan as you wish, for example you could use one every day or one for a week or just as and when you need them. Super affordable and super helpful, this would be a great buy for Uni! 

- Rose Marble Macbook Cover by MadeinUKArt - 

If you're the type of person that prefers working on a laptop/macbook for university rather than keeping notebooks and folders, a pretty cover would probably be a super good buy. Not only is it super cute and looks nice, but also it protects your laptop when you're carrying it around and if you're in a seminar or class with a lot of other Macs, you know exactly which is yours. I've chosen this beautiful design by Made In UK Art , I love rose gold and I love marble, so this encompasses both of these trends. I think the whole look is slick and stylish and would look amazing on your Macbook. This cover starts from £29.99, depending on what size you require. So it is slightly more pricer than the other items featured but if you have such an expensive bit of kit it's probably a good idea to invest in protecting it. 

- A5 Geometric Notebooks from SarahBurnsPrints - 

Now, if unlike the previous folk, you prefer using pen and paper then these super cute notebooks would be a great buy for classes and lectures. I prefer to write in lectures and seminars because I'm quite a quick writer and I tend to take stuff in much better if I write rather than type, but it's all down to personal preference. When I saw these adorable notepads I fell in love and knew I needed them for my note taking. I like using a book because it keeps my notes all in one place rather than single paper where they end up crumpled up in 10 different bags. I also find nice stationary makes you take notes nicer, I don't know if that's just me, but if I have a pretty book I want my notes to be organised and pretty too. These are cute because I love the monochrome theme and I also find the geometric prints really aesthetically pleasing. I found these at Sarah Burns Prints  for £3, so not only are they cute, but affordable too! 

- Grown Woman Mug by Catsicorn - 

You are now officially an adult. You've moved out and you're fending for yourself, so I feel like the mug completely fits the bill. When I'm sorting out my finances or deciding what to cook for dinner I feel like a grown ass woman! I also found tea and coffee spurred me on at uni. When I'm revising quick tea break, quick coffee break, hot drink before bed... Hot drinks at every occasion. I loved this funny yet cute mug and I really need to add it to my mug collection for the new uni year. I can totally see myself sipping on my cup of tea while doing my seminar work. I found this beauty from Catsicorn for £9, I would say this is a good price for a mug, you can probably find a little bit cheaper but I love the design enough and you probably wont find similar from any local shops or supermarkets. 

- Bottle Opener Keyring by Elmaray - 

My final product is a bottle opener on a Keyring. Last year I already had a bottle opener on my keys and I promise you, you will use it. Even if you think you wont, you will. And if you wont, someone else will be in need and you can help. You always take your keys with you, so you'll always have a bottle opener! Also, if you're moving into a new flat or new house, you'll need a keyring on your keys so you don't lose them and so you remember they're yours. I loved this one from Elmaray for £10. I liked it a lot as you can personalise it to whatever you want, you can buy it as a gift for someone, you can put your name on it, or a saying you love and no one can ever mistake it for theirs! Mine was actually bright orange and it looked a bit unattractive on my keys, served a purpose but not aesthetically pleasing, whereas this is much cuter and would look much more attractive on your keys.

And that's all the products for this post. As usually, I could keep going with beautiful gems for pages and pages but I like to keep it short and sweet and just bring a few goodies. Hopefully there's something here you like or that you'd find useful at Uni. Please have a look at all the sellers and see what other products they sell. Let me know if you find anything else that would be good for Uni!

Hello Darling,
Today I bring you a get ready with me, style post. Basically, I just did my makeup how I usually like to do it if I'm going out to see friends or out with my boyfriend or whatever. It's not super glam but it's also not super natural which is kinda how I have my makeup most of the time. I could do more crazy coloured looks if that's what people would prefer to see but for today's post I decided just to show you a normal nudey-brown simple bronze type of look and I hope you enjoy reading.


To begin I prime my skin. On the average day I actually don't use primer but if I'm going out on an evening or doing anything where I want my makeup to be especially flawless and smooth I do like to use a primer. I used the MAC Prep and Prime Natural Radiance Base Luminator in Yellow on the majority of my face and then the Maybelline Babyskin on my nose and around my cheeks where my glasses usually sit. 

I then go in and do a little colour correcting, especially recently as my skin has been super acne prone. I have started using the Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer in Green and I completely love it. It probably wouldn't work for darker skin tones but since I am quite fair it works really well. I just put this over any redness I'm suffering with, so spots and then around my nose.

For foundation today I went with my absolute favourite which is the Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation in Cool Bone, which I do have a review post if you're interested in the foundation. I cannot wear this foundation on the daily because it is too full coverage and 'harsh' on my skin but every so often for long days or nights out it's what I go for. It's also an amazing colour match for me! I then go in under my eyes and anywhere that still needs extra coverage with the Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer using a mix of the shades Fair and Lemon. I like to use both because the Lemon is very light and I find the Fair to be a little pink, so mixing them works really well on my complexion.














I don't cream contour everyday, just when I'm feeling fancy, today was a fancy day. I use a mix of the two browns in the PS Love Cream Contour Palette, which I have also reviewed if you'd like to read more. I usually contour under my cheekbones, around my jaw, under my lip and around my forehead. I occasionally try for a little nose contour but I'm always too scared to muck it up so if I do go for this I like to be as natural as I can.

To set my under eyes I dab a small amount of the Nars Light Reflecting powder to my concealer, not too much as this can have horrendous flash back and then go in with Rimmel Stay Matte Powder in Translucent all over the face with my big fluffy Wilko brush which I featured in my brush post a few months ago.


For brows I have started using the Collection Brow Pomade in Brunette and I completely love it! I may do a whole post on this pomade I love it that much, so if you're interested let me know. I try to keep the inner portion of my brows as natural as possible and then clean up the outer arch. I am quite a natural brow girl so I don't do too much to my brows.

For eyeshadow I used the Sleek Eyeshadow Palette in Ultra Matte v2. I don't actually know if this is still available as I bought it on sale at boots for £1, but if you do see it I'd really recommend picking it up as it's a really versatile all matte palette.
I started by using the second shade in, which is like a skin toned brown, all over the lid. I then used the slightly darker, but still quite light brown, in the crease. Just buffing it in quite messily. I then took the darker brown next to it and placed that in the outer crease, trying to be a bit neater with my placement and blending, keeping it exclusive to the outer crease. I then tried to build up this colour with a tiny amount of black in the outer V of the eye, just to add the smallest amount of dimension to the look. I then added the matte white to the inner portion of my eye and inner corner. I don't on a day to day basis go for anything dark around the eye, so that's why I've tried to keep this quite natural. However, I did decide I wasn't fully feeling the matte look so added a small amount of the MAC skin finish in Soft and Gentle just to add a tiny bit of glow to the eye.


For eyeliner I used the Eyeko Skinny Eyeliner and created a winged look. I don't usually bring the line right into the inner corner, again because I don't like anything too dark around my eye. So I usually try to bring the wind down in the middle of the eye gradually.
For mascara I used Maybelline Lash Sensational, which I know a lot of people love, but is a new fave for me.

For bronzer I used the Laura Geller Bronze N Brighten, which I don't use very often but I actually really enjoyed for this look.  For blush I used Chanel Rose Glacier which is like a really subtle pink with gold reflex and then for highlight I used the Sleek Solstice palette, which I just got and completely love!



I decided that for this look I would go with a nude lip, rather than a colour, although with this eye literally anything works. So I used MDMFlow matte lipstick in Bossy, topped with MAC Blankety in the centre. Bossy is a very light true nude and Blankety although pale and nude has a slight pink tone. And that's it!

My top was super annoying and kept falling :(

I actually ended up wearing this look to the cinema with some of my friend to see rough night, so realistically I spent an hour doing my makeup to sit in a dark room. Haha! I hope you've enjoyed this post. It's a super simple makeup look and usually what I go to when I'm not feeling creative. Let me know what you thought in the comments!

Hello Darling, 

This type of post is a little different from my usual content and today I wont be talking about the joys of vintage clothes or what lipstick shade suits your skin tone, today's post has a much more serious undertone. 

Now, before I begin this post, I am not a vegetarian/vegan nor is my beauty collection purely cruelty free and those are certainly areas in life I could do better at. But I raise this point, at the risk of potentially looking hypocritical, because I think it's important to note that day-to-day animal welfare and the environment aren't in my conscious. Again, this is certainly an area I need to improve upon, but the fact that this event on TV managed to spur such a response from myself really shows the brutality of what happened. Also, before I begin, everyone is entitled to their own opinion - whether you agree or disagree please be respectful of other people's opinions and if you're going to leave a comment please be as mature as you are able and I apologise in advance if you don't agree with me on this issue. 

So, I'll start at the beginning and the reason I am even writing this post. Tuesday nights, starting last week, have turned into sitting down with my boyfriend and a cup of tea, to watch Bake Off followed by Celebrity Island. I'd only ever seen one episode of the Island in the past, but after watching the first episode of this season last week and really enjoying it, I decided that I would try and keep up with it this year. 

This week the Islanders were desperately trying to create fire and shelter after finding water last week and no way to purify it. After they'd unsuccessfully managed to create fire and the show's celebrity team having to come out and do it for them, they decided to head back to the water source to collect some water to finally purify. When some of the group went back to the water they conveniently found a crocodile in the water, which was soon to be cooked up and served for the celebs lunch. 

After a small group found the crocodile they ran back to camp to get the 'matcho men' who would be coming to kill the croc. From what I saw, hours of time were spent poking the poor animal with a stick to try and get it out the water. Hitting it on the head trying to get it to move, teasing the croc, trying to touch it's tale. When we were watching it Ryan turned to me and said "It's no wonder the poor fella is snapping, it's fighting for its life." And he couldn't of said it any better. This was a life and it was being poked with a stick and teased on TV. 

After however long, the celebs managed to hook some sort of thread or wire around its mouth and they pulled it out the water this way. When it was on land, after much messing around, one of the celebs stood on its back and the other on its head and then they stabbed it in the neck with a knife. And that was it. The poor crocodile had been killed. 

You may be reading this thinking, that doesn't sound that horrendous to watch. Well, after watching the whole battle of a circle of celebs and cameras kill this poor animal, I simply burst into tears. I was absolutely mortified at what I had seen. I was completely devastated at the torture that I had watched and the way this animal lost its life. 

What makes matters worse, was the response of most of the celebs. Don't get me wrong, if I'd only eaten coconuts and snails I'd probably be quite thankful for food. However, comments from mainly Iwan Thomas were completely uncalled for and made me feel quite sick. He explained how he didn't feel bad about stabbing this poor creature in the neck and serving it up on a bit of bark for reality TV and how he felt proud of himself. 

Safe to say, this crocodile has been on my mind since I saw it and I have been telling literally everyone I know about how upset I was to see this. A few people have said, "Well isn't the point of the show about them surviving?" Well I would say yes, but the fact RJ left because the celebs were pathetic at surviving and when they couldn't even make fire or work together the shows safety team had to come out and save them all really makes me question how much this is about survival. 

Obviously, we cannot have people dying on our TV screens because they've all got hypothermia, but if this show was purely about surviving, they wouldn't have. These celebs are at the smallest possible risk, they have safety units ready and waiting at their beck and call and in my opinion the biggest threat they're facing is slipping on a rock. Another question I had about this issue was, did the Caiman naturally wander into the celebrities water source, or was it just me who thought it was slightly suspicious how as soon as the celebs entered into possible starvation the Caiman appeared, just where you'd expect the celebrities to be. Of course, these celebrities were actually at no risk of starving because if they were the safety unit would have been called to save them, but it feels to me like this poor animal was placed there ready for the celebs to hunt. It had been chosen to die for the purposes of entertainment. The channel tried to defend itself by saying the whole point of the show is to see if the celebs are capable of surviving alone and if they can find food, which includes hunting. However, we have already debunked this statement as it's clear that the celebs can't survive alone. Some would have been killed by hypothermia before starvation, without the safety team there to rescue them. As I've said, I also question if they actually found the croc themselves or it was placed there for them to find and if it was actually placed there then it proved nothing at all about the celebs ability to find food for themselves. 

And this is where my whole issue with the event comes from. This wasn't a group of dying people who had absolutely no choice but to kill this animal or risk dying themselves. Nor is the show for any other reason than to make profit. This creature was placed on this show with the purpose of the celebs killing it, for entertainment. And I am not ok with that. I'm not ok with the killing of innocent animals for the purposes of entertainment. And you may disagree or you may say I'm a hypocrite because I'm ok with the rearing and killing of animals for the food industry. On that point, you're probably right. It' probably is hypocritical for me to be upset by this when I still eat meat and fish and that's my own personal battle to face and overcome. Even more to that point, this was one crocodile in however many and millions of other animals are killed everyday, why am I not writing about them? Being honest, its because those animals aren't plastered on my TV and killed for fun. That sounds awful as if out of sight, out of mind... and perhaps I can't defend myself on that front either. But none of these arguments against me, make it in anyway ok what channel four did. You can call me a hypocrite or argue that this animal was killed humanly, but none of it justifies murdering a baby Caiman just for a pathetic reality TV show. Although, channel four have responded saying it was an adult - not that this in anyway justifies killing it, furthermore, how can they be certain the creature was an adult and not a baby croc if it occurred there naturally, without tampering from producers. 

After doing a quick google search, I've also discovered that Caimans are actually very small crocs and although your livestock may be at risk, they very rarely attack humans. These celebs were at no real risk from being attacked by this reptile, the only thing they were a risk of was receiving bad press from tabloid newspapers when they had to come and be saved again by the safety team. 

Overall, it's safe to say this show has lost one viewer due to this and I am ashamed to have ever watched it. 

Let me know in the comments if you saw the episode and if so what did you think? Were you upset or angry about the events or was it just harmless TV?

Hello Darling, 

In my last post showing some photos of my time in Paris, I did say I was going to do a post like this where I go through all my advice for if you're travelling to Paris. If you haven't read that post, please do. That post was more of a chat through my time in Paris and the places I visited. This is more of an informative post about Paris, so hopefully you take something from it if you're planning a visit. 

Paris is a beautiful place, but it's also a very large place and I can imagine it's also a scary place for some people. Hopefully some of my tips can help you when it comes to travelling in Paris, eating in Paris or general life around Paris. 

I'm not the biggest traveller myself, so travelling doesn't come incredibly easy for me. So I've probably experienced the troubles so you don't have to! I'm also sort of a worrier, so I like to panic at every step of travel, luckily when I was in Paris everything went super smooth an all my worrying was for no reason. I also am super fussy, but again after I sussed out the city a little bit, sorting out meals became very easy. Now, let's get into my list of tips for any of you planning to visit the stunning city. 

1) Pick pockets are among you. 

Paris is one of the most visited cities in the world, this means it's prime place for pick pockets because there are millions of people everywhere and very famous attractions. Luckily I didn't have an experience with a pick pocket and neither did my friend, whom I was travelling with. But, we were aware the entire time that we could have been victim. My suggestions to you would be to wear a cross body bag that you wear actually across your body, not over only one shoulder. It's also best to put it in a place where your arm falls so you can keep your arm over the zip or opening. It's also important to note that since it's possible to be a victim, only carry on you what you an loose. For example, it's best not to carry your passport and your boarding passes and it's best to not keep all your money on you at all times. If you're safe and aware like I was, you should be fine. 

I did see a lot of people who had rucksacks on and although it means it's unlikely the whole bag is to be stolen, it would have been so easy for a stealth pick pocket to quickly unzip the rucksack and take anything they fancied, especially in queues or very busy areas where there was a large amount of people in a small space. 

2) Do not trust google maps or Siri. 

Although we used google maps throughout our trip, there was multiple times when it got us very very lost and it completely didn't know our location. When we were around 50m away from our hotel it told us we were 3 and a half hours walk in the wrong direction. It's safe to say, use these devices to a point but do not put all your trust in them. Instead look at street names and road signs to aid you and if all else fails a traditional map will be your best friend. 

3) Drinks are more expensive that you think. 

Do not buy any drinks near attractions. I remember being on Champs Elysees and a coke was €6. Only, when you walked a little further to a local supermarket, a coke was around €1. If you can hold yourself without a drink, do so and wait until you find somewhere with suitable prices. Water will also be your best friend so try drinking that over sugary pop, it's cheaper and it's better for you. 

4) Wear flat shoes and comfortable clothing. 

 You will be walking - a lot. I saw so many beautiful women tottering around in heels and all I thought was wow, you've got to be in pain. I walked everywhere in Paris, I didn't taxi or metro once. There would literally be no way I could have done it in heels. I barley did it in trainers. Although you may want to look chic, I promise you being comfortable is way more important. 

5) Try to speak as much French as you can manage. 

For me, speaking French was super tricky because I am literally awful at languages. But, I promise you the locals will appreciate you so much more if you at least try. I learnt very quickly that the local French people weren't particularly fond of tourists so at least trying to speak their language was much more polite. Even if you just learn: Hello, please, thank you, goodbye and know how to ask if the locals speak your language. Oh and 'Pardon' for when you mess up! 

6) Plan your time before you get there. 

I didn't stay in Paris for very long and to be honest, with the amount of walking I did, I'm not sure I could have managed any longer anyway. But before I got there, I planned with my time what I wanted to do and see. I decided one day was for the Eiffel tower and Arc De Triomphe and the second day was for the Louvre and Notre Dame. I booked the tickets online in order to skip the queues. If I had any time left it I could use it to see other things too, but it meant that I, without a doubt, got to see what I wanted to. Luckily I did have lots more time and I did manage to see lotsof other attractions too. 

7) Avoid peak times at the attractions. 

When we visited the main tourist spots we tried to avoid when we thought would be a peak time. For example, we set off for the Eiffel tower at 8:30 to get there for opening time at 9:30. This meant that it was way less busy and the queues were much shorter than if we'd gone right in the middle of the day. Seeing the sights when there's not millions of people there is much better than when you can't even move for people. 

8) Go to the loo when you can! 

This is a simple one, but if there is a free, clean loo...go! For example if you're in a museum and there is a toilette, go, even if you think you don't need it. This will save you later on. If you go when it's available, it will save you later on when there isn't one around or there is only the dirty ones on the street corner. Don't let your lovely day be ruined by the fact you're busting for the toilette. 

I think that's all for my major tips in Paris. These are probably applicable to other travels too, but I found these were my main discoveries in Paris. 

What would your top travel tip be? Let me know in the comments. Also, please give me a follow at the bottom of the page, or on bloglovin', I'd super appreciate it.

Hello Darling, 

How can I possibly describe Paris? Paris may be one of the most overwhelming and artistic places I have ever been. I have just returned from my short trip to Paris and thought it was only appropriate to share my experience with you all.
If you've never been to Paris, think of how you would stereo-typically think of it - the buildings, the people, the style. That's really how it is. Or how it was for me.
My experience was probably extremely 'touristy' so if you'd rather live and act like a local then my visit probably wasn't the visit for you. I visited all the main attractions and loved every single one. Especially from doing French at school I was aware of lots of the monuments but it was unreal to actually see them in real life and not on a google search. 

On the first day, I arrived at around 5pm. After searching for the hotel, which was located near Gare Du Nord, I unpacked and headed back out into Paris at around 7pm. Since it was already evening and we were super tired, we just went on a walk to explore and ended up on Pont Alexandre iii, looking up at the Eiffel tower. Watching the light show was so stunning, I would have preferred to have seen it up close but we were so tired from flying and wandering around Paris, I'm not sure we could have managed even another 5 meter walk. We had planned to come back and watch it up close, but unfortunately we never got chance, so that's something to see again next time! 

On the second day, we again headed for the Eiffel tower, this time to actually get to it and go up it. We set off at around 8am to hit the tower before it got extremely busy. By 9:45 we were in the queue ready to climb the 1,000 steps. The Eiffel tower was probably my most favourite thing to see, although that's so typical of me to say, it was truly unlike anything I've ever done before. The views were stunning, it was warm day, everything just felt perfect - other than nearly dying climbing the stairs that it, would 100% recommend the lift. After being on the second floor for a while, we decided to head up to the peak, I am incredibly afraid of heights I might add. This time there was no other option than the lift, so we bought our ticket and headed on up. If you are debating going to the summit or not, seriously do it. Like I say, I'm afraid of heights but I am so thankful that I got myself up there because I was in complete awe - loved it! 

After the Eiffel tower we headed towards the Arc De Triomphe and Champs-Elysees. Both I loved and by this time both were very very busy. We never quite managed to make it across the crazy roundabout at the Arc, but seeing it up close was still a very good experience. 

We then had a little break and rested at the hotel room, before heading to Sacre-Coeur, which was incredibly close to where we were staying. This was another amazing experience and another amazing view. We didn't go inside itself, just had a walk around the building, which was beautiful. From Sacre-Coeur we headed to the Moulin Rouge, to have a look at the bright lights and sudden change in atmosphere, before getting some food and heading to bed. 

The weather on the next day was a little more wet and cold, but thankfully the rain didn't last too long. We had booked tickets for the Louvre online so we headed there. Unfortunately we got very lost and ended up back at Moulin Rouge, which if you know Paris you'll know is not really the right direction. After a difficult walk we finally arrived at the triangle and queued up, a little late, for the museum. Inside it was insanely huge, so much to look at, take in and see. We wandered around the Louvre for hours, taking in all the beauty and culture, before heading out to find some food. 

After lunch it was time to fine Notre Dame, which to my surprise was much bigger than I expected. But before we got there we stumbled upon the lock bridge, or Pont de l'Archeveche. The Notre Dame was another beautiful building, honestly the architecture in Paris is unbelievable. We did have a wander around Notre Dame, which was also lovely. 

On the final evening we visited Galaries Lafayette and went for some food before retiring back to the room to take in everything we had seen. Over the 2 days of sightseeing we walked around 30,000 steps per day, according to my phone (not the most reliable if I'm honest) but trust me when I say, I felt it. My legs were in pain and I was exhausted but it was completely worth it to see everything that I did.

Overall, I loved Paris and I wouldn't hesitate to visit again. I hope you've all enjoyed having a look at some of the photos and reading about a few of the experiences while I was there. I am thinking about doing another post of top tips while in Paris for anyone who's visiting the city, so let me know if you'd like to read that too.
