Hello lovelies, I feel like I haven't done a let's talk post in awhile so I thought what better time then now!  I hope you are all well and happy, as I am both of those and looking forward to my birthday on Monday. I will be turning 16 for those interested.  As I was planning what I am wanting to do for my birthday I was realising that I had neglected my blog. As I slowly have been getting back into blogging I found myself getting back in touch with an old friend of mine who I grew up with. We went to nursery, infants school and juniors school so it has been lovely re-getting to know each other again. This person is fellow blogger ( and youtuber!) Chloe May, she was honestly the kindest person I knew growing up and I am happy to report she is still the same happy and kind person. I highly suggest you going to read her blog  here  as she is uploading everyday for this month. If any of you are wondering what I am doing for my birthday,  I will be going out ...

Hello Lovelies, I mentioned that I would be making this post in my previous post so today I will be telling you all about my Summer Bucket List and all about beating the boredom that comes in Summer.  I personally think that you don't have to make a physical summer bucket list it is more of a state of mind where if you want to do something you just do it. 1. Go To A Funfair This one is pretty self-explanatory but I have actually already achieved this one! So on our last day before me and my friends had study leave (by the way we only had one week of study leave) we decided to go to our local funfair. I think I went on a total of 3 different rides but there was very few there so that's my excuse but I did go on those rides multiple times. I even went on the dun...dun...dun... Waltzer but I have really bad IBS and I already had an upset stomach so I was most definitely sick on and after this ride. On the left is a photo of my beautiful friends Megann, Abbie and Bethany. 2...

Hello Lovelies, I always have trouble coming up with things to do when I am bored and in summer I am more bored than usual so I thought I would make a list of 5 Things you could do this summer, 1. EXPLORE I love exploring new places whether it be a vast woodland or a big bustling city. I enjoy people watching and learning new things about different plants, people, etc. I have already been to two new places that were surprisingly close to where I live yet I had never been to them before last week. These were High Force and a little stream in the middle of the Pennines - so basically the middle of nowhere!! haha. Here is a photo on the right of High Force, one of the biggest waterfalls in the UK - I found even the walk down enjoyable - even if it was the hottest day of the year when I went down to the waterfall.  2. PICNIC When we went to the pennines we had decided to have a picnic, it was nice doing this as we were somewhere where my dad had gone growing up and it was ...

Hello Lovelies, Last summer me and my good friend Bethany (@JustOldCuriousMe) spent a week in Silloth in Cumbria with my family. And we are hoping to go again in the upcoming Easter Holidays. I have been to Silloth a few times and I love it there because of the beautiful views and how quiet and serine it can be. So today I though I would base two outfits of the view in Silloth, one for Winter and one for Summer. Summer Pieces Top £7.00 Miss Selfridge Shorts £17.99 New Look Bag £13.50 Miss Selfridge Shoes £18.99 New Look Winter Pieces Jeans £35.00 AS0S Jumper £22.00 Topshop Jacket £24.99 New Look Shoes £20.00 Miss Selfridge I hope you really enjoyed this post and leave a comment below telling me your favourite sleepy seaside town! Thanks for reading loves, Ellie Xx PS: I am terribly sorry for my infrequent uploads just there are only 5 or 4 teaching weeks till I start my GCSEs so thing are getting a bit on top of me bu...

Hello Lovelies,  Today I thought I would do a post like what i used to do, an outfit post! so here it is...                                                                            Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoyed it!  - Ellie Xx  

Hello Lovelies, Today I just thought I have never done a post on co-ords! Which shocks me a lot as I love them, so I thought I would do a series on this that will span over this week and next I believe? I am not sure but the first two will be me discussing a co-ord that I love and is super affordable. Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoyed this post, - Ellie Xx Your opinion matters leave me a comment telling me what you think!

Hello Lovelies, I had a few comments from new bloggers or people who want to start a blog and one person asked for some tips. So i thought why not create a post about how I ended up starting my blog and some tips and tricks!  I started this blog in October 2014 I originally planned to make posts on books and how to start creative writing but i didn't really keep up with it. Then in January this year I decided to give it another go and began to make fashion and lifestyle posts. I think blogging is a big commitment and if you don't have time to create posts or don't think you will be able to upload regularly may be rethink starting a blog?  I love blogging but sometimes you get bloggers block just like writers block and it can be really diffiicult to get idea's especially if you are to upload as frequently as i do when you have lots of new ideas write them down on a calendar or in a notebook i prefer the calendar option as i use blogger which is set up via a google accoun...

Hello Lovelies, As of tomorrow it is the first week of the six week holidays in the UK aka the summer holidays (vacation). So I thought I would set my self a challenge to read at least 6 books one for each week!  Here is the first book that I am currently reading!  The Mortal Instruments City Of Ashes This is the second book in the The Mortal Instruments Series when I started the first book I thought it would just be another annoying over the top fantasy novel especially after seeing the (awful) film of it but I judged a book by its cover and fell in love with the series the characters are so well developed and I am in love with the way Cassandra Clare writes! Most authors that write in 3rd person I hate because i feel like it is so disconnected to the characters but she doesn't do that you can acknowledge the characters emotions, thoughts, beliefs and why the characters act a certain way! I am just in love with this book series!  I thought to continue with the next book ...

Hello Lovelies, Today I thought I would make a list of three items I want to purchase this summer.  1. Balloon Skirt. I think the balloon skirts on the New Look website are gorgeous but they do not stock them where I live so I am hoping to buy one next week either in London or Durham as I am going shopping in both! 2. Round Purple Sunglasses. Another New Look product but I do love these as I need some new sunglasses for summer. Something else I am hoping to purchase on one of my trips next week. 3. A sleeveless jacket. These sleeveless jackets from select look so effortlessly elegant and I think they are perfect for summer. I hope you like this post and Thanks for reading!  - Ellie Xxx What is on your summer wishlist Let me know in the comments below!

I have been seeing them everywhere and I obtained a pair today.  I am aware that they are £3.99 in Shoe zone.But  I personally bought mine in Select as they were £8 per pair but they were buy one get one free. So i got a pair and so did my mam.  Here is an image of the jelly shoes I bought:  And this is the outfit I paired the shoes with:  Kimono: Primark Top: Select Jeans: Primark Shoes: Select At first when I saw these I thought they would be great to just slip on when walking to the swimming pool but I think I will be wearing these shoes more than I thought as they are so comfy!

Hello Lovelies! It's Ellie here and I thought I would just update you on what is going on in my life currently! I go to London in around two weeks so I may vlog that but I'm not sure as it is a school trip but there will be lots of photos but I think I may vlog all of the week because I go to London on the Tuesday with school and on the Wednesday all of my year group are going to see Terminator Genesis in Durham! I have also just made a new snapchat for you guys to go add me on it is simply thatweirdoellie. Some random person photos from my snapchat: I also wanted to apologise in advance as updates may be slow this week as all this week I have mock exams! But on Friday we have the day off school so I will definitely update on Friday.  Thanks for reading and I hope you liked this random little post, - Ellie Xx

Hello lovelies, I really admire people like Kylie Jenners sense of style where they have a bit more of a risky, edgy look so here is an outfit that will suit even the most tame of people!  1. Shirt £14.99 Select  2. Jeans £17.99 Select  Here are some shoes that I feel like would really finish off this outfit.  Shoes £14.50 - New Look  I hope you like this post and my next post should hopefully be up tomorrow but nothing is definite! Thanks for reading,  - Ellie Xx  Question Of The Post: If you could define your style in one word what it be and why!?  My answer: Bipolar. (I hope no one takes offence to this term, I don't mean it in a offensive or hurtful way I mean it by one of the ways it is defined as having or relating to two poles or extremeties) This may seem like such a peculiar answer but one day I can be a really girly person and the next I am wearing a really edgy outfit then five minutes later I am wearing vintage chic. I don't know tell ...
