The British Tag!

I was nominated by my college friend Jess to get involved in the British tag so here it is..



How many cups of tea do you have a day and how many sugars?
I drink green tea, which at first I didn't like but after having it all the time, I got used to the taste and now I love it! I drink it off and on but when I do drink it, ermmmm I'd say about 4 or 5 cups a day, depends what I am doing or what mood I am in. I have no sugars in green tea or normal tea when I drink that.

Favourite part of your roast?
I am not the biggest fan of roast dinners, I hate vegetables, not a fan of mash, but I deffo love the pigs in blankets AKA sausages wrapped in bacon :P I know ya have them at Christmas time or whatever but it still counts!! 

Favourite dunking biscuit?
This is my favourite question! Oh my.. where do I start, ermm I love bourbon biscuits, digestive biscuits, Jam dodgers, wagon wheels, cookies, ALL OF THEM!! Except plain biscuits with no flavour or chocolate.

Favourite quintessentially British pass time?
Not too sure what quintessentially means but ermmmm I think watching This Morning, is what I do to pass time, especially when Rochelle Humes is presenting *fangirls*

Favourite word?
CLOGGY! And CONVENIENT!

Cockney rhyming slang? 
'The Early Bird Catches The Worm', I say it all the time ( hint the reason I am so uncool)

Favourite sweet?
I love sour sweets, I'd never decline a sour Haribo sweet *mouth watering*

What would your pub be called?
Ermmm.. 'Don't drink too much' because I am not a big drinker myself & I hate drink drivers, so that's just a friendly reminder for them.

No.1 British person?
Hmm.. I would say Tanya Burr, Ed Sheeran & Kate Middleton, because their all cool & I love them! *smiley/sunglass emoji*

Favourite shop/restaurant?
I love cafes AKA anywhere that sells carrot cake. My favourite at the moment issssss H&M.

What British song pops into your head?
What Makes You Beautiful by One Direction, *jumps off bridge*

Marmite?
Never tried it.

Thanks for reading, you should all do the British tag!

7 Deadly Sins of Beauty Tag!


1.  GREED: What is your most inexpensive beauty item? What is your must expensive?
           
My most inexpensive beauty item is probably the Natural Collection concealer that cost £2.99 at the moment I think. I used to buy it when I was younger & when I first started getting into make up, I still have some left but I now use Wake me up concealer that is a bit more higher in price.

My most expensive beauty product is probably The Body Shop Christmas Tea-Tree bundle that I got as a gift last year, I think the price was £23, it came with a cleanser, toner, blemish/night cream & a lotion. I would defiantly advice people to purchase something like this, it is more cheaper the buying each product separately.

2. WRATH: What beauty products do you have a love/hate relationship with?

I would say I have a love/hate relationship with my concealer because I don't have partially nice skin, I find it hard to always cover my blemishes up really well with my concealer & it isn't the concealer that isn't doesn't work, its my awful skin *sigh* But then on other days it will cover my skin up very well!

3. GLUTTONY: What are your most delicious beauty products?

Well I don't really taste my products to be honest!? But ermmmm.. I guess some strawberry scented lip glosses taste nice that I have had in the past. But smelling wise defiantly my Body Shop strawberry body wash, it smells so good!

4. SLOUTH: What products do you neglect due to laziness?

I think I neglect my blusher & mascara. I have never been one to wear lots & lots of make up, I just like it when it covers up my blemishes.

5. PRIDE: What beauty products give you the most self confidence?

The products that give me the most confidence is defiantly foundation & concealer just based on the fact that it covers up ma face.

6. LUST: What attribute do you find most attractive in the opposite sex?

Humour is probably the 2nd most important thing that I look for in a guy, I don't think I could be in the same room as a guy if we didn't have a laugh/banter never mind being in a relationship. A guy has to keep up with his hygiene, nobody wants a smelly Nelly, he has to be good looking but NOT like OMMMMMG HE'S SOO HOT like an Hollister model (no thaaanks) and finally he has to be a really nice gentleman that has respect for woman!

ENVY: What items would you most like to receive as a gift?

There is so many gifts I'd like to have!! But I would never decline Body Shop products. I really want to try out Frank Scrub, which is a coffee scrub that aims at body skin hiccups & makes ya skin so soft so I'd like to try it out one day!

This beauty tag has been so fun, I was asked to do this blog post tag by my good friend Jess from College, who is also a blogger, her blog is http://floralatomic.blogspot.co.uk/2014_07_01_archive.html 

Lots of love..

2nd Paris trip of 2014

Good afternoon bloggers!
I have just got back from a beautiful/rainy/breezy/sunny long weekend in Paris, we went by coach then caught the ferry to Berlin then we travelled down to Paris! The weather was so unpredictable, the first real day we was in Paris was really nice & sunny but after that it was so rainy & miserable.

We went to visit the Eiffel Tower, but unfortunately there was a 4 hour wait and we did not have time, so we just had photos outside next to it! I don't know why the Eiffel Tower is so popular but I guess there is just something about it.
 
We had a few hours at the Les Galeries Lafayette shopping centre which is a very very very very big shopping centre, full of big named designers which I unfortunately couldn't buy anything because I left my thousands of Euros at home.. ;) But it was very nice to take in the atmosphere and to stare at people buying Chanel.

On the plus side they had FREE WIFI *PRAISE DA LORD*, so I was happy working on my blog post there!

TA DAAA!

Window Display

 I also took some pictures of the window displays in the shopping centre, they didn't name the make. so I cant mention the designers, but I really loved winter coat that they were displaying but my bank account doesn't!

We took a trip to Brogue before we went to travel home. Brogue reminds me of York, a small village place, very small town (We got lost). On the ferry home I was very sick so I now know I can't travel on ferries.



Mamma likes the Tower!

WEAR ALL JUMPSUIT REVIEW

Afternoon Everybody! 
I am currently in the lovely City of Paris! I am writing this post in the Les Galeries Lafayette shopping centre as I type!
Which is a very posh, mahoosive shopping centre!




This new blog post is about this beautiful jumpsuit that I bought a few months ago from an online store called http://www.wearall.com the ladies that I have been speaking too were super duper sweet, they were very helpful! 

So I think customer service alone this is a great website to shop from! I thought while I am in this beautiful city why not take my photos here?!


Anyway on to the photos..









The jumpsuit is so soft, I told the ladies that it's one of the softest comfiest items I have in my wardrobe!!! I really love the flowery detail, nothing too in your face or boring, I think it has the right consistency of colour going off. 

I styled the jumpsuit with my high boots, my Topshop quilted bag & my sunglasses!


My hair was in a bun because I wanted to show the detail of the jumpsuit & for my hair not to get in the way and drag the whole outfit down! The jumpsuit cost me £18.95 and for the quality & customer service I think is fantastic! 

The colour of the jumpsuit is a nice light blue. In Autumn/winter I could style it with a black leather jacket, I can dress it up or down! 

Thank you for reading! Here is a picture that I will leave you with! 

Lots of love
From, Polly X 

TA DAAA!
