This or That Beauty Tag

Aloha Mes Amigos! How are you all? So today I thought I would do the this or that beauty tag, I hope you enjoy and I would love to see your versions or your ideas on this tag! 
makeup:

• blush or bronzer - Blusher for sure, I am totally totally totally not obsessed with blusher :S

• lip gloss or lipstick - I always used to be obsessed with lip gloss and never wear lipstick but over the past few months since I've got a job, I've started buying more beauty products and doing my make up properly - used to be awful, id either look like a clown or look as if i'd been tangoed, but now i'm defiantly in love with lipstick so i'd have to say lipstick 

• eye liner or mascara - I have more eye-liners but if I were to have a day were I would only wear a little make up, i would defiantly wear mascara and probably wouldn't even consider eye liner. I think I've found a mascara that I love so I don't need to buy as many.

• foundation or concealer- as much as I love foundation I wouldn't leave the house without concealer, it is magic and my lifesaver when I have a break out.

• neutral or color eye shadow- neutral, neutral aaallllllll the way, i only tend to use one palette and it is completely neutral, i rarely wear coloured eye shadow.

• pressed or loose eye shadows- I'm not going to lie, i don't really know what this means, could someone let me know in the comment section please?! Thank you! :)

• brushes or sponges - brushes all the way, i do sometimes use a sponge for my liquid foundation but that's about it. 

nails:

• OPI or china glaze - never tried either tbh

• Long or short - I prefer reasonably long but as they aren't allowed to be painted in a dark colour they tend to break so they are reasonably short, however I never have them too short that you can;t see the white tip at all.

• Acrylic or natural - My nails have always been in reasonable condition so I've never found the need to wear acrylics that ruin my natural nails when they are nice anyway :)

• Brights or darks - brights and pastels in the summer, darks and sparkles in the winter

• Flower or no flower - i'm awful at nail art, but if I was any good then flower.

body:

• perfume or body splash - normally perfume, I own both but tend to wear perfume more

• lotion or body butter - lotion, its less thick and cakey.

• body wash or soap - body wash

• lush or other bath company - I love lush but as I work so much and have to get the bus to my local lush shop i don't really get a chance to go and when I do I always get a little over whelmed so leave without buying anything, i love there stuff so I think i just need to hang on in there and really have a good look round.

fashion:

• jeans or sweat pants - jeans, always always always

• long sleeve of short - short sleeve

• dresses or skirts- dresses, shirts always sit strangely on me and until I loose some weight I don't tend to wear them, I find dresses more flattering.

• stripes or plaid - tough one, probably stripes.. no plaid.. i have no idea!

• flip flops or sandals - sandals, i'm so clumsy I always trip up when I wear flip flops.

• scarves or hats - scarves, I have a full fringe so look slightly strange in a hat.

• studs or dangly earrings - studs, I only wear dangly earrings on special occasions, I find it hard to find dangly earrings that I like.

• necklaces or bracelets - it depends, i normally wear my Pandora but I like to wear a necklace a lot too.

• heels or flats - i'm a clumsy college student so day to day i wear flats, on special occasions I wear heels, but day to day, defiantly flats or wedges.

• cowboy boots or riding boots - I don't really wear either to be honest, I prefer ankle boots at so short.

• jacket or hoodie - jacket, i love a blazer, i wear my hoodies all the time at home, but out and about i don't tend to wear them much.

• Forever 21 or Charlotte Russe - never been to a Charlotte Russe shop so forever 21.

• Abercombie or Hollister - Hollister

• saks 5th or nordstrom - never been to either - i'm guessing they are american companies.

hair:

• curly or straight - naturally mine is straight however i normally curl it between 2 and 3 times a week.

• bun or ponytail - bun, I love pony tails, however I would like my hair to be slightly longer for a pony tail 

• bobby pins or butterfly clips - bobby pins

• hair spray or gel - hair spray

• long or short  - long, i wont be going short anytime soon that's for sure!

• light or dark - my hair is ginger so its very in between, it goes hark in the winter and light in the summer, but i would never contemplate dying it blonder whereas i would dark so i guess dark.

• side sweep bangs or full bangs - I love my full fringe!

• up or down - down normally

random:

• Rain or shine - shine
• Summer or winter - summer
• Fall or spring - fall - spring means hay fever which just means aaaaahhhh!
• Chocolate or vanilla - toughie, probably chocolate though
• East coast or west coast - not a clue!!!
• Thank you for reading mes amigos, I tag everyone that wishes to do this tag, have fun, and keep smiling!!

Memories of 2013

When I happened to get ever so slightly excited about
seeing One Direction

Aloha Mes Amigos!! So last year had some pretty amazing memories for me, there has been a huge jump from January of 2013 to February of 2014. The start of 2013 saw me finding it slightly difficult to find myself, I was confused about who I was and who my friends were and had no idea what I wanted to do with my life. I was obsessed with my school work and thought that if I ever so slightly failed my GCSE's then my life would be over. I didn't realize that I spent so much time worrying and not actually putting my brain into action which therefore meant that I was stressing and struggling beyond compare. Over the first few months of 2013 I started to find myself and find out who my friends were and I started to feel as if I knew who I was. I was still working ridiculously hard but I had the support of my friends and they knew what to do when I started stressing and freaking out.

In April of 2013 my uncle managed to get me tickets to see One Direction at the O2 and it felt like the best moment of my life. I understood why I wouldn't be going and had come to terms with the idea so when my uncle got offered tickets it was the surprise of my life. He only got offered them 5 days before the concert so that meant that I had 5 days in which to teach my mum every single one direction song going. I loved it, not sure if mum did though. I felt so lucky to have the opportunity to go and see the boys perform and I loved every single minute of being there, I didn't waste a second, i mean literally, i only even went to the loo once!! (maybe that was slightly too much info)... sorry gang <3

So after going to see one direction exams started to occur and oh boy there were loads, stress started to build up to a ridiculously high level and I was struggling so much, but the last few weeks of school this year were something that i genuinely loved. So so so many incredible memories were made in those last few weeks especially those of triple science and excel maths, our class had the strongest bond i had ever seen and we all had so much respect for one another. The last day of year 11 was a special one, and just thinking back on year 11 makes me smile, the amount of friends I had gained was amazing, and I'm so close with every single one of them now.

After our exams meant only one thing, summer, 3 months to be exact, and I've never had a summer like it. I had a lot of friends who were in year 12 at the time so still in college so i met up with them most days and we would just sit, chat, have water fights and sun bathe in their free periods, they were all really new friends and it was an amazing 5 weeks or so, even if i did end up like a lobster once or twice as it was rather hot- especially for England.

Then came prom, it was so posh! It was an amazing time to see everyone looking so nice and so happy together, it was amazing!

A couple of weeks later came my birthday, my sixteenth, and we had all of my family round, it was such a nice day as the weather was so nice and everyone was in such a good mood. The best part about that day was that one of my best friends who lives in Qatar in the middle east was back in the UK so came to my birthday as a surprise, it was honestly so amazing as I've known her since i was 3 days old and we have been best friends ever since i can imagine. It was such a special feeling being back with her for a few hours, i felt like the luckiest girl in the world. This is the day that I also found out that one of my other aunts and uncles had got me tickets to see One Direction at Wembley Stadium in 2014, i honestly didn't deserve all of this.

A weeks later my friends decided it was there turn to celebrate my birthday, and then this happened, that's right gang, I hugged a giraffes bum, not the most flattering picture of me I know, but that day I went ever so slightly hyper, which is what normally happened whenever I'm around my friends. I'm sorry you all had to see this, I just felt it was a rather funny memory of mine, and thought you would all like to laugh at my own expense :) .

After the summer came a bit of a shock to my body as it meant going back to reality after being away from using my brain for so long. Starting college was one of the best and worst things, its taught me so much about working hard and about what you can achieve with hard work but its also been flippin' tiring! I have such a laugh at college but I've learnt to get the balance between work and play and its so worth it. I want to leave you all with this thought, 'Life is not about the amount of breaths you take, its about the moment that take your breath away' so remember mes amigos, enjoy life, every second of it, the good bits, the bad bits, embrace it all, and do the best you can.
