Holiday essentials

So on Friday I am going on holiday to Tunisia, which I am extremely excited about. Which is why am going to write a blog post on the holiday essentials I am going to take.

These two wash bags are both from Primark. I can't remember exactly how much they were but as you can imagine they were quite cheap. The top one is pink, obviously and it's really handy as it has a hook on the end so you can hang it in your bathroom. The second one is a bit bigger, it's black with a floral pattern all over. 

The first few items I have is the following; John Freda 6 effects hair serum. This is going to be so handy for me. As you know I have very curly hair and in humid weather it literally goes like Monica in friends when they go to Barbados. And as you can imagine it's not pretty. The next item is the Garnier ultimate sleek and restore shampoo and conditioner. I've never used this before but I really want to try it out and the smell is amazing. Third item is the Garnia Ambre solare dry mist high 50 sun cream. In Tunisia it's extremely hot so this is a must have on holiday. I also then have the Batise dry shampoo, Dove original deodorant and Impulse true love body spray.  

These last items I am going to take is the Pure exfoliating cleansing wipes, Body shop Aloe cleanser, toner, day and night cream and last but not least the Body Shop coco milk body lotion. 

No make up rule at school!

For this blog post, I wanted to talk about a subject that I think affects quite a lot of people. And that is the no make up rule that is applied for many schools across the UK and any other country's that also has this rule.

I left school three years ago so these rule's do not apply to me anymore but do to so many other people. When I was at school, I wasn't too bothered about wearing make up. If I'm honest I was quite confident with the way I looked and was happy to walk into school with my face completely bare.
Unfortunately this wasn't the case for some of my friends and the people in my class. There were people who never got into trouble, were well behaved and worked hard. But for them they felt insecure and felt better with make up on. Which in my opinion is absolutely fine. If wearing make up makes people feel better about themselves then surly this would give them the confidents to arrive to school and get on with their work.

I can understand if school's do this if there having girls or boys sit in class, apply their make up giving them distractions from their work then that's fair in enough.

The school that I went to (which I won't name) had staff stand at the entrance of the school doors and watch everyone come in and if they saw that someone was wearing too much make up then they would make them take it off with a wet wipe. For me I think It is just ridiculous. It almost feels like your trending on egg shells, waiting for someone to just come up to you and demand for you to take your make up off. Worst off all because you had to take your make up off, your teacher at your first lesson would then moan at you for being late. If the teacher hadn't stopped you in the first place you wouldn't be late and you would be able to get on with your work and not distract your education.      

Online taking over!

When I heard that fashion magazine Company was going to be no more and that their October issue is going to be their last, I was completely devastated.
I started buying their magazine at the begging of the year and even though It hasn't been that long, I'v enjoyed reading through the interviews and searching the season trends ahead. I'v continuously brought Company every month up in till now.
I think it's completely different to any other magazine available now. Their packaging as a whole isn't glossy like the others but the soft, paper feel makes it more unique, inside and out.
They don't splash their pages with celebrities such as Kim Kardashian and Victorian Beckham but with everyday people that have amazing blogs making you feel just like one of them.
Their front covers display not your typical celeb but instead show aspiring actresses such as Chloe Mortez. Ashley Benson and superstar blogger Zoella.
But the thing that got was that their website stated that their website would still be up. This just showed that the internet is becoming more popular that the magazines itself and as a consequence having to shut down.
So I hope one day Comapany can get back, rebuild and get back on the shelves.

50 facts about me!!!

So I wanted to do a blog post where you can get to know me a bit better. I started my blog not that long ago and I feel like whoever is reading my blog doesn't really know that much and I also feel like you have the right to know more about me. Which is why I decided to do a 50 facts about me, to give you a little insight into my life. (Not that it's very interesting).

My perfume collection 2014!!

1-Britney Spears-Midnight fantasy. I'm really bad at describing sent's so I will do this as best as I can. I've had this perfume many times. Purely because It's one of my favourites. It not only smells really nice, but it's not expensive. It's a very sophisticated sent, not fruity but nice to wear on a night out. 
2-Britney Spears-Curious. Can you tell I love Britney Spears perfumes. This is similar to the first one but slightly different in a way I can't explain. 
3-Armarni Code.I cannot describe these perfumes for the life of me as you have probably noticed by now, so instead of trying to describe them I'm just going to list the ones that I own and say that they smell nice and I like them. 
4-Christina Aguilera.
5-Kate Moss
6-Dior, Miss Dior
7-Next Define
8-Next Gold
9-Victoria Beckham.      

The British tag!!

I know I'm not a youtubber or make video's but I really like the idea of a British Tag. I'm extremely proud to be British and everything that the country has achieved.

So let's get started!

1- How many cups of tea do you drink a day?
For me I cannot go one day without a cup of tea. Even on holiday in a hot country I still like a tea in the morning. On a normal day I usually have about three cups a day with two sugars.

2-Favourite part of a Sunday roast?
This question is so easy. I LOVE Yorkshire pudding! I could eat it on it's own for the rest of my life I love it that much.  My mum makes it home made and it's just the best.

3-Favourite dunking biscuit?
It has to be a digestive. They may not fit into your mug but if you just brake bits off it's amazing.

4-Favourite British past time?
I think a lot of people would say this. But my favourite British thing to do is simply eat fish and chips on the sea side. There's nothing I love more than walking along a sea front with some tasty fish and chips.

5-Favourite word?
I love the way we call our hair Barnet. I think it's so funny that word.

6-Cockney slang?
Ruby Mury- Curry
Apple and pairs- staris

7-Favourite sweet?
I have loved these ever since I was a little girl and that's chocolate white mice.

8-Pub name?
This was a hard one to think off. My surname is Muddiman and my dad's friends call him Mudds. So I think I would call it The Royal Mudds.

9-British Person?
This would have to be Prince Harry. I think he is so funny and defiantly my favourite Royal.

10-Favourite shop?
Either Topshop or newlook. Their the two shops I probably shop at the most.

11- British song?
I've got quite a few favourite British songs. One of them is One Direction's What Makes You Beautiful, Oasis Wounder wall, The Spice Girls Wannabe or Madness Baggy Trousers.

Marmite?
YES!  

H&M wish list!!

So recently I've been very nosey and excited for the A/W14 collection to come out in the High Street even though were still in August, I just love knowing what's going to be out there in a months time. The thought of putting on my huge woolly jumper and snuggling up on the sofa with a hot cup of tea just fills me with joy. Don't get me wrong I love the warm summer time but there's something about the winter season that I just love and I can't wait to see what clothing items  will be out there.  

The shop that I'm most excited about is H&M. This is because H&M has been a favourite of mine for ages!! They have everything you need from basic t-shirts to a going out frock in the evening and their prices are really reasonable. After browsing through their website it occurred to me that their was a lot of items on their that I really, really want and just had to show you in a H&M wish list.

 

 

 

 

Lowesoft 2014

So, It's been a while since my last blog post and that's because I'v been in Lowesoft for a week. For those who doesn't know were Lowesoft is, It's a small sea side town on the East Cost of England. The reason why I was there for is because my lovely nan's sister lives there and I stayed there with her along with my nan, auntie and my cousin Ashleigh. It was such a lovely the week, the weather was so nice that I burnt and I never burn that's how hot it was. I didn't take that many photo's but here are a few to show you.

First of all here is my favourite picture of me and Ashleigh in my nan's sister's garden on a gorgeous sunny day.

Along with going to the beach, there were tones of more stuff we did during this week but  I didn't want to be unsociable and start taking pictures everywhere. On the Saturday we went to a theme park called Pleasure Wood Hills. This is my favourite theme park of all time and that's because I'm not a lover of roller coasters as I hate being up side down and swung everywhere. But this theme park has rides that are not massive and big but there enough that you can enjoy the ride without feeling life someone has just chucked you in the air at 100ft.

We also went to an amazing tea shop in Great Yarmouth which was decorated in a Victorian theme. They had all Victorian household objects on the walls and the staff were even dressed as Victorians. I wish I had took pictures but I was too busy eating cake and drinking tea haha.
