Pretty Little Things :)

Helloo <3 

Whenever I'm having a bit of a less than perfect day, I like to add a little sparkle by looking at all the pretty little things I can find on the numerous extremely cute shops I've found online :) So today after a too long week, I decided to share with you some of my favourite pretty little things I've seen recently :) 

Firstly, the lovely DotComGiftShop : 

Bubbles ? Bubbles . OH MY GOSH ! ICE CREAM BUBBLE !!! :D I'm not sure I can contemplate this level of  absolutely amazing and how much they would brighten any day aha :) Everyday should have bubbles in it <3 Esspecially when they're as cheap as £1.95 , here  :)

Paper chains ! Perfect for brightening up bedrooms .. and for keeping kids quiet whilst babysitting ;) I actually love making paper chains , I find it really therapeutic :) Right now these are on sale for £1.95 here <3 

Who doesn't love a bit of bunting ? I'm desperate to start making my own bunting .. minus my slightly unfortunate record for breaking sewing machines aha :) However, I'm still determined and when I do learn, I might do a DIY on it so let me know if you fancy that ... it could be Chritmas bunting ! Wow now I'm getting all over-excited about Christmas :) Anyways .. until then these super cute and super colourful, polka dot set of fabric bunting will do me just fine for £4.95 whilst they're on sale here  <3  

These would just be soooo sweet to keep in my handbag for whenever I fancied a lil bit of doodling <3 I can't believe they're only £1.50 :o You can find them for all your doodling needs, here :)

Two words, Hopeful Notes !!! Ahhh they're so cute :D Why don't I have these ?  £4.95 for this level of wonderful-ness ... excuse me whilst I go get my card ;) Find them here <3 

Next up ! Etsy :) 

It's no secret that I am a MASSIVE Disney fan :) Up is possibly my favourite Disney Pixar film ... It's just sooooooooooooooooooooooooo awesome, adorable, amazing and every other good word beginning with A as that's what I seem to be going with aha ;) When I found the Ellie Badge on Etsy ... I can not even describe my excitment :D I will definitely be getting at least one for £2.99 here <3


"Second Star to the right and straight on till morning " <3 You have to love Peter Pan :) You can find this adorable cushion here  :) Also whilst I'm on the subject of Disney and Peter Pan, I found a wonderful blog called 'Never Grow Up' Disney inspired and full of lovely-ness , I don't know the girl who writes it but I know that she definitely deserve way more follower than she has so if you have time for a lil bit of magic then have a look :) 

Daisy-Mae Jewellery <3

 

A pinkie promise, the sign of love, trust and the hopefuls <3 This bracelet at £3.50 is so nice, just like all the other stuff on the Daisy-Mae Jewellery website :)  

Ebay :) 

I've wanted some sparkly cat ears ever since I saw the beautiful Carrie Hope Fletcher's cat ears poking out of the curly, blond, rays of sunshine, that are her hair <3 These are only £1.41 with free P+P, you can find them here :) Once they arrive I won't be taking them off ... EVER ! :) 

I hope you enjoyed seeing all the pretty things and that it cheered you up a lil bit if your day has been a lil bit rubbishy because all stuff gets better in the end I promise <3 You just have to keep smiling and wait it out because you will get there :) 

Stay Strong <3 Stay Smiley :)

:) August Favourites

Good Afternoon :D

Hope that your day has been marvellous :) If not I hope you find a way to make it so <3  I have grown to love writing my monthly favourites blogs because it's a few hours when I'm purely focusing on the good things that happened through the month and I know I have to find them no matter how rubbish the month has been and it honestly makes me feel a whole lot better :) So here is my August favourites :

Cinema :)

This month my favourite film that I've seen at the Cinema was The Inbetweeners Movie 2 :) I love the InBetweeners and I was ecstatic when I found out that they were making a second movie . I really enjoyed the first movie however I didn't think it was as good as the series meanwhile the second movie was fantastic ! Me and my sister were dying with laughter whilst eating our Ben and Jerry's ice cream ... They make Smores Ice cream now ! How awesome is that ? :D I accidentally dropped me spoon in the cinema but my sister was an absolute babe and gave me hers <3 Anyways back to the film; In this movie the boys set off to Australia to find Jay who has told them a urm, rather fanciful version of his currant living and working arrangements ... and girls ;) Nothing unusual there then hehe :) The mischievous young adults head off re-united on a road trip and well ... when you've finished rolling on the floor laughing I'm sure you'll agree that it's a errm... eventful adventure to say the least ;) Must see film ! If you've seen it then let me know your thoughts In the comments.

Books :)

The Little Beach Street Bakery By Jenny Colgan was a wonderfully heart-warming tale  :) It took me a long time to read because I could never find time to read but I went on holiday and finished it in a day , I just couldn't put it down <3 The protagonist ( Polly) moves away after becoming bankrupt, leaving behind her husband Chris and everything she's ever known . But who needs a husband when you has friendly fishermen, a sweet american bee-keeper and most importantly Neil :) An addorable little puffin who befriends Polly and flutters around her with his ruffled feathers, standing by her and nibbling at the crumbs of her delicious homemade bread when she has no one else on the issolated little village which becomes her home and her happiness <3 A truly uplifting story of loss, love, bakery's and Puffins :) What's not to like ? 

As I mentioned in a Smiley Sunday post, I have started to read the Harry Potter books . Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone by the incredibly talented J.K.Rowling was everything everyone ever said it was <3 If I'm honest I thought that I wasn't going to enjoy reading the Harry Potter Series but with every page I was pulled further and further into the magical wizard world of Harry Potter and I loved every moment ! I can't 
believe how much I enjoyed the book ! It was perfectly written and I read it within a day . If you are putting off reading the Harry Potter series or have convinced yourself it's not your thing then un-convince yourself and give it a go because I'm sure you will love it as much as I did :) 

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets also by J.K.Rowling lived up to the expectations set by the first book and then proceeded to surpass them by massive amounts :) I feel like there's really not any point in summing up the storyline because if you don't know the story line of Harry Potter I think you might need to go outside darling hehe ;) But I can't wait to read the 3rd book ( Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban ) I feel like there's going to be a lot of Harry potter related blog posts coming up :) 

Song :) 

The Reckless and the Brave by All Time Low is an amazing song that you can sing along to at any time and instantly feel good and like you can take on the world <3 There needs to be more songs like this because not enough people are being told to go for their dreams :) 

Clothing :) 

This month I have discovered a wonderful charity which I would really like to talk more about in another blog post called " To Write Love On Her Arms "   which does amazing work helping people  whom are struggling with depression, addiction, self-injury and suicide. They have a store and you should definitely check it out ( you can find it here ) I love the top's in the store because I think they look good and have fantastic messages on , I'm ordering one as soon as I 
have some money :) This is my favourite of their tops, and it reads : "You'll need coffee shops and sunsets and road trips. Airplanes and passports and new songs and old songs, but people more than anything else. You will need other people and you will need to be that other person to someone else, a living, breathing screaming invitation to believe better things."

Etsy :) 

I found a awesome Suicide Prevention necklace which you can find here <3 




Blog :) 

I have been Reading KimJadeLouise  for a while now and I love her blog and more people should know about it :) I especially love her DIY posts like the floral bun wraps but her DIY: Book to Diary/Notebook post with great :) She's creative, a talented artist and an awesome writer so if you get time then please check her out <3 

YouTube :) 

I discovered this YouTuber on the first of August and have been dying to tell you about her ever since :) RibbonsMakeBows is a wonderful young woman who's just graduated and has been making awesome videos through her university life :) If you have issues with body confidence or being happy then I can't think of a better place for you to go to <3 

Finally , Here are my five good things that have happened this month :) 

1. I went on holiday and swam in the sea :D Yayyy <3 
2. Everyone in Ireland was really friendly and smiled back . 
3. I went to see Wicked at the theatre OH MY GOSH It was so so so good :D
4. The New Doctors first episode was great and I saw it on the big screen <3 There was a girl wearing a Fez !!!!!
5. New School Year = New Stationary ... lots and lots and lots of new stationary :) I think I might do a stationary haul if you're interested to show you all my new stuff because I seriously need to get this excitement out of my system aha I mean they're just pens ... but they're coloured revision pens ! Arghhh :D 

That's all for today, thanks for reading ! 

Stay Strong <3 Stay Smiley :)

July Favourites :)

Heyyy :D 

Wow this month has gone fast ! I'm in such a good mood, it's such a lovely day :) I know that's irrelevant but I guess I feel like it's important to acknowledge what a beautiful day it is and that the world isn't actually all that bad :) I can't believe it's already time to write another favourites blog .. I mean I'm happy about it because I love writing at these because It leads you to think about your month and look for the good things but wow it's gone so so fast :) So without any further a do I guess we better get started :) 

Cinema :) 

I mentioned In my first "Smiley Sundays "  I went to see Mrs Browns Boys D'movie the other day at the cinema and it was hilarious :) It's a great pick me up if you're feeling down because you can't help but laugh .. and there's blind ninjas ... so you should go aha :) I really enjoyed the film, the plot line was interesting .. well anything involving Mrs Brown usually ends up rather interesting regardless ;) But watching her and her family fight to save her market stall whilst desperately searching for a solution to the very very large debt that she has inherited amongst uncontrollable laughter is definitely two hours well spent :) 



Books :) 

Usually I recommend three books that I have met throughout the month but unfortunately I only had time to read one book and I was reading another but its gone missing which is really annoying because it was getting to the good bit but this means I will only be able to recommend one book this month and I'm actually really sorry but I promise there will be three next month <3  however the book I did read was outstanding. I saw 'Breaking Butterflies' by M.Angelais on the top self in W.H.Smiths  when I was out with my friend .. The title attracted my attention because butterflies are a symbol to me and many people I know, of staying strong ( Type 'the butterfly project into google') so I'm automatically intiguied by anything to do with butterflies .. plus they're pretty aha :) But the blurb of the book gave nothing away .. and I mean nothing . So I started to read the first few pages of the book ... I understood what was going on, I was interested and really enjoying it ... but I still didn't know what it was about or where it was going . Then my birthday came and someone gave me the book as a present because they knew I wanted it, so I continued to read and I continued to enjoy the book and I continued to not know what it was about or where it was going literally until the last page . Then I understood that the book could not be explained only read, I can't tell you what it's about even the basic plot line without ruining the whole thing but I can tell you it's breath taking, it leaves you with your heart in your chest, filled with fear, confusion and every emotion you never even knew you had <3 I loved this book and I'm sure you will love it too so please read it because it's absolutely amazing and if you have or when you have please let me know what you think in the comments :) 

Song :) 

I was planning to say my favourite song for this month is Little Bird by Ed Sheeran and you should definitely check it out because it puts me in a good mood .. it's sort of the song you want to listen to when your feeling all loved up :) But then yesterday I heard one a song written by a YouTuber who's channel is called DoddleOddle called a 'A permanent hug from you ' it's just really sweet and cute and makes me feel all warm and snuggly inside <3 Plus Dodie Clark ( DoddleOddle) is such a talented singer and she sings it as a duet with Tessa Violet which is absolutely gorgeous , they're both such wonderful young women :) 

Clothing :)

Cutest design Ever !!! :D 

it's too hot for clothes. next !

Just kidding aha :) It is really warm though haha ... I'm not sure i'm at the point of wanting to become a nudest yet though ;) This month I'm absolutely loving the clothing being made by the woman behind a twitter account called @againstsuicide they do such good work and you should definitely follow them and check out her clothes and I am in love by the motivational Penguin top ;) i will definitely be buying this :) You can buy it by clicking here <3

Etsy :) 

This won't be the first time I've mentioned just how much I love and am completely obsessed with 'Looking for Alaska' By John Green but I've found the cutest notebook on Etsy :) You can find it here :) 






Website :)

As a result of my never ending love of Carrie Hope Fletcher and her YouTube channel 'ItsWayPastMyBedTime' I was lead to DFTBA to buy her merch ( I'm always wearing my hopeful top and my signed poster is my pride and joy aha ... but the fact i don't yet have the mug does make me feel a little sad ) but then I found tons of merch for all the things I love including John Green's stuff :) My top three things from there are : 

Want <3

I love these posters :) 

They do indeed ;) <3

Blog :)

CARRIE HOPE FLETCHER HAS STARTED BLOGGING AGAIN !!! YAYYYYYYYYYY :D 

urmmm so yeah I'm pretty damn happy about this aha :) Carrie has a blog called All I Know Now  Which is amazing I've been absolutely loving her posts about things that make her happy :) You should definitely check it out :) 

YouTube :) 

Thoughts and Nonsense is a really creative Channel where the girl who makes the videos doesn't actually appear in the videos but writes down what she want's to get across in her notebook in loads of different awesome styles of writing :) They're are really impressive and unique and she deserves way more subscribers than she has so it would be really great if you'd go have a look :)

1) It was my birthday :) I had such a lovely day and wear my TFIOS necklace everyday .. also I had a caterpillar cake .. yeah ! I'm that cool ;) aha .

2) I've spent two days so far this holiday covering towns in hopeful notes and my hopeful notes blog post should be up at some point next week :) 

3) My friend answer the door to a poor delivery man in her underwear thinking it was only  her nan... I almost died of laughter when she told me XD

4) I went to see "The Two Gentleman of Verona " at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre with my youth group and despite being slightly unsure of going I actually really enjoyed it and would recommend it to anyone :)
