Updated ☀❥ How I Edit My Instagram Pictures 大
Tuesday, 29 March 2016
The photos in this blogpost are unedited, I use a canon G7X to take these and I love the quality of the canon G7X and how simple the camera is to use.
I have changed the way I edit my pictures on Instagram compared to how I used to edit them, I love playing around with apps and trying out different effects! The main app I use is VSCO cam, my favourite filters are M3, M5 and P5. I turn the grain up and sometimes turn the saturation up or down for a brighter or more grey effect. I then use PicLab to add vintage effects or afterlight!
For the border I use PicJointer :)
That's all of the apps I use, hope this helps for anyone who's been asking!

February Favourites ••• Music, Pictures, Zala Hair, Crystals
Sunday, 28 February 2016
I've always loved photography and it's such a great feeling being able to express it through my blog and social media accounts. I'm usually taking pictures where ever I go to, catching life time memories is just one big bonus, pictures I can look back on for the rest of my life.
I cannot stop listening to bombaby bicycle club !!! I discovered them about two years ago and was really obsessed when I came across their music, I've been listening to them a lot again recently I can't get enough, they are insanely talented. Another band I have been listening to just recently are Wild Child, their so creative not just in their songs but in their filming/video making aswell. I haven't stopped listening to Rillo Talk one of my favourite videos of theirs. I have so much random songs on my soundcloud to list here but if you want to head over to my soundcloud and see what I've been listening to I'll leave the link here. When I can't sleep I will listen to so many songs for ages lol, it gets to a point where I like some right shit. I look back at it the next day and think WHY so if you find some awful awful songs on there, I am sorry haha :D :D
I got some new crystals and a healing ring, I randomly came across this shop whilst I was out.. it looked so interesting from the outside so I had to go in! I need to make a trip back there it was pretty awesome. It was a little shop full of crystals, hand crafted items and jewellery ect. I've really loved testing out new lenses for my camera I got hold of a kaleidoscope lense from a website called H0les, I've been using fish eye lenses as well, I got mine of EBay for really cheap.
More onto beauty products.. I'm so in love with St. Moriz tan, I got sent a range of their products and I wanted to wait a while until I wrote about them so I could test them about before sharing what I thought, I have been using St. moriz for years now and I've always really liked their tan, it's SO affordable and looks nice on. I couldn't wait to try out their new range, I'm really happy with it. They have a bunch of products from long lasting tanning mousses to tanning primer.
I was looking for some good hair extensions for ages online because for some reason I can't really find any that I like very much. I looked for agessss... then I came across an Australian brand called Zala hair extensions, in all the comments on the youtube videos I watching/reviews etc. I couldn't find a bad word said about them at all. After looking for a while I was pretty confident in trying them out. They took about a week and a half to get to the UK and shipping cost me around £20 which I thought was pretty damn good! I'm so ecstatic about them and I'm so glad I came across them, they are really really thick from top to bottom, they have a lovely wavy look to them if you want to wear them natural and they are just such good quality. They are the best hair extensions I have ever bought and I'm going to stick with them! There's a few pictures on this post of me wearing them and some on my Instagram. By the way I paid for these extensions with my own money I have no affiliation with Zala.
Hope you enjoyed my February favourites! If you have any questions about products just ask in the comments below or contact me on Instagram :D

New Years And Christmas | Sale Guide
Sunday, 20 December 2015
I've been looking around online getting together 2016 outfit inspiration, looking at coats and jackets I may want for the coldest months ahead of us and even SS16 collections to, ok I'm a little bit early for that (LOL) but it's good to be prepared right? Plus if your getting summer clothes in the Christmas sales it's a bargain as it saves you buying it later on in the year when it's most likely going to be more expensive!
Anyway back to the topic of talking about 2016 outfit inspiration! Like I mentioned before I've been looking around online and love these pieces from Esprit (items in pictures above) I've mixed my picks up abit with some floral patterns, faux fur jackets to leather jackets to a kimono. Even if your thinking about buying something a little bit flowy or floral which is more suited to summer, you don't have to wait! You can layer with a beautiful scarf to complete the look, if you want to wear a dress but want to avoid the cold wear some tights and boots! No ones going to know about those cosy socks your wearing underneath either...
Just remember.. Wear what you love!
Hope my tips have helped some of you and I hope you all have a fabulous Christmas!
The items above are from Esprit,
I will leave their website below -
