Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do - Music - Some Songs I Love That You Should Check Out.

Hi!!!

I haven't posted much this month and so I thought that it would be a nice idea to share some more songs that I love with you. This isn't really a 'songs that have been stuck in my head' kind of post but rather a little list of some that I think you might like to check out.

'She's Electric' by Oasis (HERE)

 

I love Oasis with my heart and my soul - I feel like music really struck gold when they showed up. She's Electric is, I often find, one of their 'underrated' or 'lesser-known' tracks but I just love it. As always, sublime, interesting, dynamic, memorable and anthem-ic music and lyrics. #OASISFORLIFE

 

'On My One' by Jake Bugg (HERE)

 

We all know that I think everything Jake Bugg does is utterly amazing and this, his first piece of brand new music in a few years (it doesn't feel like that long, mind you) is no exception. I love the emotion in this, I love the way it showcases his vocals, I love the lyrics, I love the guitar. Listen to it. Now.

'Bittersweet Symphony' by The Verve (HERE)

What a classic. This song is just absolutely amazing. I love violins and classical instruments so I love the use of those throughout and the lyrics are so interesting, thought provoking and meaningful. This is one that'll stay with you. Love.

Same Jeans by The View (HERE)

This one is super catchy, so don't blame me when in three weeks time you're still singing it in your head at the bus stop. It's also pretty good for bopping about to, so there's that. I really like the music and the lyrics - its quite fun but not entirely meaningless which is great.

'Full Circle' by Half Moon Run (HERE)

 

I love this song for so many reasons. It's chilled out and yet it's dynamic and interesting. This song is one that will make you think a little bit. This was the first song by Half Moon Run that I listened to and I must say, I'm as impressed now by this as I was back then.

 

'The Sound' by The 1975 (HERE)

The 1975 are back with some new music and I like it lots. I think Matty Healy's voice is really cool and it adds an extra dimension to their music. It's catchy, it's one you can dance to and the lyrics are cool. (Also, I love the video for this).
 

That's your lot for today. I hope you enjoyed this and that you check out my recommendations. 

What are your favourite songs? Do you like my recommendations? What songs, bands and singers shall I check out? Do you have any comments or suggestions for future posts? Be sure to tell me in the comments. 

Thanks for reading, I hope March has been a lovely month for you.

I hope your day is epic!

Have A Hoppy Time! - Happy Easter 2016.

Hi!!!

 

Happy Easter you lovely people! Can you believe that it is Easter already?! It feels like only a week or two ago that I was celebrating last Easter in my own way (we were on holiday and we were driving in our rental car eating mini eggs and chocolate bunnies to meet the rest of our family at our holiday home). Anyway, here's my post for it this year. 

Easter is a time for celebration.

Whether you're going on an Easter Egg hunt, going to see family and friends, going to church, eating chocolate - whatever you do, I can almost guarantee it will be loads of fun!

Happy Easter! I hope you have the best time with those who you love most and that your day is happy, peaceful and that you get to celebrate in all of the ways that you want to. 

Remember that Easter is the perfect time to stop and appreciate what you have in your life, and a great time to try and spread little happiness to others.

Love to you all xxx

That's all for today, I hope you enjoyed that and that you have been enjoying your bank holiday weekend so far.

What are you doing today? Do you celebrate Easter? If you do, how? What are you most looking forward to? What is your favourite kind of Easter treat? Do you have any suggestions for upcoming posts? Let me know in the comments below!

See you all soon!

Have a totally wonderful time!

Makeup Your Mind - Makeup and Beauty Inspiration and Tips - My (Current) MAC Lipstick Collection

Hi!!!

I'm a huge makeup lover. This isn't news, but it is certainly true. I am a massive fan of lipsticks, especially colourful ones, and I have a lovely little collection of MAC lipsticks in my makeup bag. I really enjoy posts like these and thought that you guys might like to see my carefully selected MAC lipstick collection today.

My MAC Lipstick Collection (February 2016)

 

Ladybug (HERE).

 

 

Ladybug was the first MAC lipstick that I've ever owned and I am still as in love with it now as I was when I first took it out of its box. It is a gorgeous true red shade that I love wearing - it's deffo my favourite red lipstick. It's a 'Lustre' texture that I find really comfortable to wear and that I think looks really lovely. It makes me feel glamorous and special and I love it.

 

Show Orchid (HERE).

 

I got Show Orchid first as a Christmas present a year or so ago. It is a beautiful, very bright, fuchsia pink shade. It is an 'Amplified Creme' texture that is once again comfortable to wear. I love it for parties - its such a fun, sassy shade. Love.

 

Violetta (HERE)

 

Violetta is the newest edition to my collection - it was a 2015 Christmas present - but I'd had my eye on it for ages. It's a really unique violet purple shade in an 'Amplified' texture (which as with all in the collection sits comfortably on the lips). I think it's a really cool colour. I love this.

 

Thanks for reading, everyone. I love my MAC lipstick collection and had a lot of fun putting this together, so I hope you enjoyed this post.

What is your favourite lipstick? Do you own any MAC lipsticks? What do you think of my little collection? Do you have any other comments or maybe some suggestions for future posts? Be sure to let me know in the comments.

I'll see you all soon, guys.

 

Have the most wonderfully brilliant day!
