Winter

Winter is  the one season you either love it or you hate it. The days are darker, colder and the nights seem like they last forever. I'm one of those people who love and hate winter. I hate it because the weather turns freezing and you have to wrap yourself in coats, scarf's, hats and gloves.

Saying that I do love winter fashion. The ankle boots, the long sleeve skater dresses and I'm able to have my hair down without getting too hot. It's also a good excuse to stay in with a steaming hot chocolate, covered in cream and sprinkles, watching the TV and a good film.

But the without a doubt the best thing about winter is that Christmas is just round the corner. I love the rush of Christmas shopping down the streets, the lights and decorations which cover the hight's of buildings and houses and the whole build up to Christmas it's self.

Although I am nearly 20 years old, the feeling of waking up really early on Christmas morning and seeing heaps of presents all with your name on it.

So wherever you are in the world, I hope you have lovely Christmas filled with joy, happiness and love.

One Direction album review

Can you believe it's been FOUR years since five ordinary boys auditioned for one of the biggest TV talent shows in the UK and became one of the biggest boybands in the world right now?

After the release of three of their albums, (which were all very successful), they have now released the anticipated forth album, titled four.    

The sound of the album is completely different to anything else One Direction have done on their previous albums, but it works a treat. It's loud, massive and full of great anthems which are perfect to perform live with.

In each and every song the boys voices all remain on point and have grown stronger and stronger in each album. Harry's in particular has improved so much since their first album Up All Night and the toughness in his voice suits the tone of the songs very well.

The songs in particular have all matured as the boys sing about girls, love, sex and heartbreak. My favourite songs on the album are; Ready to Run, Night Changes, Steal my Girl, Where do Broken Hearts go, No Control, Fireproof and Fools Gold.

It's an all round brilliant album and i would defiantly recommend having a listen.
Here is a list of all the songs on the album.

1. Steal my girl
2. ready to run
3. where do broken hearts go
4. 18
5. girl almighty
6. fools gold
7. night changes
8. no control
9. fireproof
10. spaces
11. stockholm syndrome
12. clouds
13. change your ticket
14. illusion
15. once in a life time
16. act my age  

Beauty product reviews

Recently i've brought a few beauty products so i thought it would be a good idea to write a small review of them and tell you what i thought of them. The first one is the Barry m natural glow palette 2. This is basically a duplicate of the Urban decay naked palettes but for less that half the price. So if your looking for a really nice, everyday eye shadow palette but don't want to spend loads of money on one then this is just what you need. It comes with some really nice neutral colours, some matt and some with a little shimmer for  nights out with your friends or family. It also comes with a small pink, red blush. The eye shadows themselves apply really nicely, there easy to put on and last all day. I would really recommended this for a everyday eye shadow palette.

The next product is the Loreal true match foundation. This has been talked about quite a lot and i wanted to give this a go and see what the hype was about. I have to say i really, really like it. It's actually one of my favourite foundations and i've only used it a few times. It's just so nice to apply and it feels so smooth and soft when putting it on your face which i've never had with any other foundations i've used. It gives a nice coverage but doesn't make your face look like your caked in foundation.

These next two products i have a love hate relationship with. One of them is the Soap and Glory carbon black eye pen and the Benifit they're real push up liner. I love eye liners and the way they make a make up look, look on your face. But i'm just absolutely rubbish at applying them. I blink constantly which makes the line go wonky and i cant get the line on the lash line, i just end up with a gap between the last line and my eyelid. If your able to put eye liner yourself, i have no idea how you do it. I'm useless. If i was okay at putting eye liner on then i would probably be raving about these products but i simply need more practice. They only good thing i can say about them is they last all day. They do not budge one bit. So if your looking for a long lasting eye liner then these are the ones.

Nail varnish review

Recently I brought a copy of this months Glamour magazine and in that issue you got a free nail varnish. Every time a magazine has a free gift with their issue I'm more likely to buy it and am more excited that usually.   
In this issue of Glamour they were giving away a nail polish by Nailsinc London in the shade Tate. This a gorgeous colour perfect for autumn and winter. It's a deep, dark red colour and I really, really like it. If your like me and are not the best at painting nails, then this is a great nail varnish to use and it's really easy to apply and you only need one coat. It is also really quick at drying and only takes 2-3 minutes after application to completely dry. 
I think this make of nail polish can be pricer than others so if you don't want to pay the high price for the polish then Glamour is only £2 and you get the nail polish free. Even if you don't like Glamour you can just keep the polish and you only have to pay £2.
