My childhood memories.

19:00

          Today's topic is Childhood memories which is pretty ironic as I have just been sat playing around with my mums old camcorder watching old video footage of us all in the snow. Sadly I can't share these videos with you today, but that said, I am hoping to get them developed so I can share them to you on my YouTube channel sometime this year.
          When looking back at myself as a child all I can think of is Spain and being brought up here, I can remember my first day of school when Don Jose (my teacher) sat me on a chair in front of the whole class and introduced me to them. I also remember how much I hated school and how I would always refused to eat at the school canteen and my brother would have to sit next to me and persuade me.
          Me and my brother always had a really strong bond throughout our childhood, I used to spend every day with him and his friends getting into bother and mischief and I think that the only thing that distanced us was when he got his first girlfriend and he didn't no longer want his little sister following him around (obviously lol). That said, we still live under the same roof and we still love each other to bits, I think.


          This photo here, I believe, is the first ever photo of me and my brother as you can quite possibly tell as I look like *thinks for about 10 minutes* ... like a cute little newborn baby. Where as my brother, he looks like he is scared for his life, and most of all for his toys but never the less, he looks freaking adorable.



          I don't even know what to say... how cute are we though? I am totally loving my little 'bish whet?' pose and lets not forget about the little Wallace and Gromit body wash.




          Here are some photos of us on holiday in Spain, before we actually came to live in Spain.



          This is the photo my mum used to make one of my Birthday cards, for my sixteenth maybe, I'm not sure, but I'm full on paaaaaaaarty!


          Clearly this photo describes that toddler / munchkin / devil child phase of my life but how cute is my outfit?

BEWARE OF THE CUTENESS OVERLOAD!! 





          These four photos just describe our childhood and relationship to a T, except I would probably get tired of him and start crying, but at least we are cute.





           And here I am through my 'tomboy' stage where all I used to do was play with my brother, his friends and my dogs.



          My grandparents were also a massive part of my childhood and when I think of the word, or of memories, I remember my grandad, he is always a happy memory and a funny one and I will always miss him and love him.


Quickly before I go, I want to also introduce you to Spike, who along with Paddy (the black dog in the photos who we brought from England) was a massive part of my childhood and sadly passed away in 2014. Spike was the most loving, and caring dog ever, I couldn't of asked for a better pet and we all miss him ever so much.


          But okay, lets not get soppy. To end it off, just look at how adorably cheeky we look here, so freaking cute! I dare you to upload one of your childhood photos and tag me!

Getting prepped for Summer.

19:00



          Am I the only one that is buzzing for Summer? I cannot wait for shorts, tans, bikinis... Although I hate sweating and being over-hot I've started missing it, so in very early preparation, I kitted out on some essentials to try and help me keep my skin looking good.



          Starting with Body Lotion you will be familiar to mentioning Creightons as I have been loving their shower and bath products this year. They smell so super refreshing and they leave your skin feeling moisturized and soft.


          As I have been missing a tan under my makeup I have been pushing myself to try and self-tan and I have had great reviews from this Madame-La-La tan with built in hydrator and natural fade. 


          As I have never been a wax person, I have never "splurged" on razors, I simply go to my local supermarket and pick up the same euro ones every time, so about a week ago that changed as I saw this Swedish company online called "KORP" and I thought I would give them a go and I have honestly fallen in love with my razor (sounds creepy, I know).


          As I my hair is starting to go darker and I am missing my natural blonde, I decided to stock up again on natural blonding products (I don't know if that's actually a word), and again I opted for a Creightons one (It smells amazing). Yet I haven't seen a difference in colour but it defiantly leaves your hair nourished, silky and soft. 
          Are you already getting prepped for the summer? If so, what products are you stocking up on or using?

Tips for self-love.

12:00

If you're a regular reader of my blog you will know I am a massive fan of makeup, animals, everything copper, and among them and many more, I am a massive fan of self-love and self-confidence, so when Lizzy gave me the opportunity to collab with her I took it as an offer I could not reject, so with that said (written) I am going to crack on and tell you my five top tricks. 

1.- Self love and confidence means staying true to yourself always, don't obsess over what people think of you. Live life for yourself

2.- Never do something you're uncomfortable with, remember the rules you have made for YOURSELF and hold on to them.

3.- Accept others and that will make you accept yourself more than you could ever imagine, don't judge others.

4.- Inspire.

5.- Have fun and don't let anything or anyone hold the freedom you have for yourself back.

Please don't forget to check out Lizzy's blog and her opinion and perspective about this topic, you can check out her blog here!

Thank you so much for your time and take care!x

10 Cherry Cocktails.

16:00



As a pale skinned blonde person, I feel a bit drowned in dark colours such as blacks, dark purples and dark red toned berry colours even, but this autumn I've got a feeling I'm going to dare myself to wear this Bourjois lipstick. 


It is a dark berry coloured lipstick, in the tone "Ten Cherry Cocktails" which I actually love the name of, and as I said 10 seconds ago, I'm not a huge fan of a dark lip but this one just has something quite appealing to it.

What colour lipsticks are you bringing out and daring yourself to wear this autumn? Xxx

Easy & cheap drugstore makeup look.

21:49



Last Tuesday I was playing around with my makeup (as usual) when I came up with this look that I really liked and it was really easy to achieve so I thought I would share it with you!


To start of, and I'm not quite sure why I did it this way round, I used my ASTRA concealer to prime my eyes and then went straight in with the eye shadow. Using my Makeup Revolution London 'What are you waiting for?' palette and I applied the colour 'Take a chance' to my lid, and then applied a tiny bit of 'sex chromosome' to the crease and blended these together with my UD  brushes. For my lashes I used my Rimmel Scandaleyes mascara and applied the 'Normal' lashes from Primarni (aka, Primark).

Then I applied my holy grail foundation from Rimmel and I buffed this in with my Urban Decay foundation brush.


To my messy (horrible) brows, all I did was brush through them with my Loreal brow artist plumper.

Then to finish off I used my Minnie bronzer in the colour Terracotta and the W7 blush in the colour Galactic.

The now.

12:00

          Hi guys! How is everything?
          Today, I wanted to sit here and talk to you about something that has been on my mind a lot lately, and that is the idea of living in the now.
          So I guess a lot of you like me, often worry about the future and how everything will plan out and after reading this book called The Power of Now and after really thinking about it, I guess its just a rethink of how I live everyday life. So the moment I am living in now and the moment your living in now, the past and the future and really things. The past is a previous present and the future is an out-coming present. All we really have is the moment we are living in right now and I guess its just important to capsulize on that. And I guess I am talking about YOLO and the fact that you do only live once, but it has just come more apparent to me, that the clock is ticking, life is counting down and it is important to grab every moment as it comes. Over the past couple of weeks I've heard about a lot of people just dying unexpectedly and just a huge amount of thing happening in the world and that just made me think.
          There's always a divider of whether you should follow your heart, or follow your brain, and I suppose I shouldn't be encouraging this, but if something makes sense to you, but doesn't make sense to anyone else, I think you should just go and do it. I mean, if you want to go on a murder spree, don't do that because that's crazy but follow your heart, live in the moment and capsulize on whats going on now because eventually all of this is going to be in the past. Think of things that will be important in the future but don't become obsessed with them, just be young and reckless, make irrational and stupid decisions and just do what feels right now because before you know it the future will be here and the past will be in the past and you'll just regret it if you don't make the most of the time you've got now.
          Your here on the planet to go and enjoy happiness so please just go and find it, whoever you are and wherever you are, please just go and find yourself. Live the moment and seize the day.
          I hope you enjoyed this post. Leave a comment down below telling me how you live your life, do you live your life? How do you think things?
         Anyway, I hope you guys are having the times of your lives, I hope you are lucking forward to the weather and the summer and I hope you are all going to let loose and enjoy yourselves, and on that note, I will be catching you guys soon. Byeeeeee! Xx

Travel.

19:35

          Yes, I know. "Where have you been?" Is that what you are wondering? I know I have been distant from many social medias (some more than others) for the last couple of months, and it has all been due to schoolwork and travelling.
          If I could give any of you one pinch of advise for this summer, it is to travel. You don't have to go far and spend a lot of money, but just get out and go somewhere out of your comfort-zone, go somewhere new, somewhere you've never been before and explore. Just turn off your phone and have the time of your life or even just the day of your life.
          A couple of weeks ago I left my house to go out and travel and one of the places I went to was Granada. It isn't far from where I live, just about two hours to be exact, but still I had one of the greatest times and I can't wait to go again and I totally recommend to you or anyone you know to disconnect and get on a couple of hours bus journey (that only cost me 18 euros both ways) and just have a good time.

Here's a picture of me looking down at a river (with water in it) I state that due to the fact that where I live there aren't any rivers with water in and they are all as dry as a desert. 


These are a couple of pictures from a bakery's we bought a fruit salad from to share and is was delicious.

This picture is the most tumblr-ish I am most proud of as I uploaded it to tumblr in a cropped symmetrical square and oh my god...

(The Castle of Granada aka Alhambra).


We had the loveliest couscous and croquetas for dinner at a old typical Spanish bar to the sound of people singing and dancing (I've got it all on a vlog).


These two last pictures are from the medieval part of Granada, I'm still not sure what part I loved more seen as all of it was very lovely and touristic.
If you would like to follow me round Granada on my vlog, check out my Vlog Channel and hopefully the video will be up there soon.
I hope you liked this weeks blog and hopefully I get back into a little "Blog Routine" again. Love youuuuuuu xxx

Q&A

16:44

- What are you naming your guinea pigs? 
To be honest, I still don't even know, so if you have any cute ideas, please please please help me out!

- Are you doing Vlogmas?
Well this is a bit in advance isn't it? But yes, I probably will do vlogmas this time, yes.

- Favorite song at the moment?
Right right now, I am listening to Sugar by Maroon 5 I am obsessed, but I also love the Mcbusted songs (all of them to be precise), and Maroon 5's other song Maps, is also great.

- What was your favorite TV show as a child?
I used to completely love 100% Tracy Beaker (I have watched ever single episode, even the Tracy Beaker Returns), Arthur, Pingu, the Tweenies, the berenstain bears, my parents are aliens, Mary-Kate and Ashley, Memrie the vampire, and I'm not quite sure of any others right now. 

- If you could choose, who would be with you in the CBB house?
I would pick: Zoe Sugg (and any other Youtuber), Peter Andre, Dougie Poynter (or any other McBusted singer), Ellie Goulding, Aston Merrygold, Joe Swash, Alan Carr and Keith Lemon (for the LOL's) and I can't think of anyone else. 

- If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go?
I would travel to LA, Florida, Paris, Australia, Germany, Italy, all over England and Ireland, and I can't think of any more countries. 

- Would you rather not have a Starbucks for 6 months or have to baby sit an anoying girl for 6 months?
Deffinetly not have a Starbucks for 6 months because here where I live in Spain you can't get them anyway, so it would not be a difficult task for me anyway.

- In the future where do you see yourself moving to?
I won't say move, but I would love to travel, and maybe spend some time in London or Brighton or just somewhere in England.

- What are your goals for 2015? 
Firstly, I would love to travel more, even if it is only around Spain or around my city area, but it would be a great start, and secondly, to be happy with myself, and also to get fit (or fitter).

-Who are your favorite YouTubers at the moment?
My favorite youtubers at the moment are Zoe Sugg, Alfie Deyes, The Saccone Joly's, the Michalaks, Joe Sugg, Caspar Lee, Oli White, Louise, Louis Cole (aka FunForLouis) and I don't know, basically all the British Youtubers.

- If you were to have any Youtuber as a sister, brother, mum and dad, who would they be?
Well Anna and Jonathan would just have to be my parents, so Eduardo and Emilia would technically be my brother and sister, but apart from them, FunForLouis would be a great brother, and Zoe would have to be my sister. 

- You get stuck in a lift for two days, which two people and two things would you take with you?
I would take Zoe and Alfie, just because I could, and they would make me laugh! And I would take my camera or phone to take selfies, and some water would probably be good.

- If you had to choose from the Kardashian's, who's bum, who's boobs, who's boyfriend, who's hair and who's face would you want?
Okay, this is a good question, I would want Kim's bum and boobs, Kourtney's boyfriend, Khloe's hair and either Kendall or Kim's face.

- What nationality are you?
I'm English, but I have been brought up in Spain since I was six. 

- If you could have any animal as a pet, what would it be? 
This is a hard one because I love nearly every animal, I think I'd have an anteater or a baby gorila, but I'd be scared of it when it was big so that wouldn't be a good idea.

- Marry, kiss and be friends with: Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson and Zayn Malik.
I would marry Zayn (obviously), kiss Harry and be friends with Louis.

- If you could be given any present in the world what would it be?
I would just really like a puppy, or several of them, but  I've already got to many dogs so that isn't going to happen.

- If you could marry anyone in the world who would it be?
This is probably the least expected person, but Peter Andre, because I've always had a masive obsession with him, and he is just such a nice person, and so caring and such a good dad, I LOVE HIMMMMM.

-If you could marry any other Youtuber who would it be? 
It would have to be Jack Harries from JacksGap, just because I can't break up Zalfie or Narcus can I?
