Last week, the lovely Amelia from It's mee nominated me for the sunshine blogger award! So, thank you so much Amelia... and here's how it's gonna go..

The rules:
- Thank the blogger who nominated you and link their blog (find Amelia here)
- Answer the 11 questions the blogger asked you
- Nominate 11 bloggers and ask them 11 different questions

- List the rules and display the sunshine blogger award logo in your post and/or on your blog site.
 
1. If you could change your name, what would you change it to and why?
I can't imagine ever changing my name! I just find the whole concept so baffling because I'd probably forget I'd changed it to be honest!! But, if I had to change it I'd change it to something that had a different meaning in another language, because I just love the whole idea of the underlying meanings of names!
 

2. What is your staple outfit?
I don't really have one staple outfit, but I do have some wardrobe staples that I swap around to create different looks just to change it up a bit. My favourite staple is my pink suede biker jacket from new look because it just completely transforms the whole outfit!
 
3. What is your typical Starbucks order?
I'm pretty basic when it comes to my Starbucks order because I love fraps and my favourite is 100% the caramel one, but I'm super excited to try the different flavours that they have in New York which we don't have here!
 
4. Do you watch Love Island? If so, who are your favourites?
I've only just started watching it! But Jack and Dani are obviously my favourite! I just feel like they're so genuine unlike some of the others. I also love Caz and Josh though do I don't really mind which couple win!
 
5. What is/was your favourite subject at school and why?

My blog actually inspired me to chose media as one of my GCSE options and I don't regret it at all! I just love learning how things are constructed for the audience and how we react to them - it's genuinely so fascinating!
 
6. If you could become a child again and take up a hobby what would it be?
I'd love to be able to play the piano , it just sounds so beautiful and it's such an incredible thing to be able to do!
 
7. Something that you regret?
Probably not sticking with my hobbies from when  I was younger, because as much as I lov blogging, I kinda wish there was something I'd carried through from when I was younger, if that makes sense?
 
8. What is your favourite blog post you have ever written and why?
I find the majority of my old posts really cringey and awful, but one that I don't hate quite as much was one on the Dove beauty campaign a few years ago. Even though I don't particularly like the style I did it in, I still really like the message that I put behind it! Click here to read it.
 
9. What's the dumbest way you've been injured?
This is so hard! I feel like I've never been injured in a dumb way but i'm just really clumsy so I fall over things a lot and walk into things so I guess that kinda counts but I've never really done something and been like - that was so dumb!
 
10. What movie/book character do you most relate to?
I don't think there's ever been one character that I completely relate to as most films or books are based on such foreign or unrealistic concepts but I definitely have favourite characters - like Bridget from Bridget Jones.
 
11. Where do you want your blog to be this time next year?

In short - I really don't know and to be completely honest, as long as I'm till producing content that I love I don't really care about how many views or followers I get. For a while I went through a phase of being completely obsessed with the figures and I fell out of love with blogging, but now I'm back to where I started with just producing what I want and enjoying doing it!
 
My 11 Questions -
1- What's your favourite thing about blogging?
2- If you could work with any brand, who would it be and why?
3- What's one weird fact about you that nobody knows?
4- What do you think about people buying followers and likes within the blogging community?
5- If you were in the Olympics, what sport would it be for?
6- If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live?
7- Have you ever regretted starting blogging?
8- What's one thing that annoys you about the blogging community?
9- Bold eyes or bold lips?
10- What's one film you could rewatch again and again?
11- What's your absolute dream job?

I love sharing my wishlists with you guys and I feel like I haven't done one for a loooong time. So, today, I'm sharing with you the items I'm dying to pick up over thesummer.


First, is the Tarte x Aspyn Ovard palette. This peye and cheek palette looks gorgeous on any skin tone and the packaging is to so pretty! I've been putting off getting this until I go to New York this summer so I don't have to pay customs and I'm so exciting about picking this one up while I'm there!

 
Another product I've been dying to try is the Barry M gloss in sugar. I've been on the hunt for a nude gloss for a while and this one is perfect - it's an orange-brown toned nude with pink undertones! It's really subtle but looks really nice on!


Next up, is this gorgeous linen dress from Topshop. I spotted this on Hannah's HG Ten the other week and fell in love! It so versatile because it can be dressed up or down, so is absolutely perfect for this time of year!


Finally, we have a skincare product that I have been dying to try all year! It's the Glossier milky jelly cleanser. This stuff is consatantly hyped about on the internet, with every who tried it loving it, so I can't wait to pick this up from the Glossier showroom in New York!

So, that's all for today! Let me know your summer wishlist in the comments! See you all next week.
