5 Summer Must Haves!
Hey Gals!
Seeing as though the sun has decided to show it's face in Britain this week I thought I'd post a summery-sun-fest list this week. So here's 5 things I can't live without it the Summer!
1). The Bodyshop's BB Cream- This BB cream is perfect for those sweltering summer days when you don't want something 'cakey' on your face. This thinner based product still provides very good coverage without you feeling like your face is melting. And with it being from The Bodyshop it isn't very expensive- usually around £8-£10 if I remember correctly.
2). A Backpack/Rucksack- In the Summer there's nothing I love more than stashing my backpack with a good book, a drink, my headphones and trekking off to some random field where I can waste the day away doing nothing. I particularly love this Backpack as it is full of many colours meaning it will go with almost anything and it certainly brightens up any outfit. I bought this a few years ago in a Boxing Day Sale at Accessorize. Although, you can't get this in Accessorize now, I know that they still do a wide range of beautiful backpacks at an average, reasonable price of £30-£40. It may seem a lot but these backpacks you will be able to pull out year after year and they will still look fantastically fashionable as the first time you wore it.
3). Summer Sandals (Birkenstocks & Jelly Shoes) - Ok so I am cheating a bit with this one as it's more of a group of things than one particular item. Of course, every year in Summer people get there toes out but this year I have been particularly loving Birkenstock Sandals and Jelly Shoes. I don't own a pair of original Birkenstock's although I have found that Primark are selling a range of 'similar' sandals. I have purchased 2 pairs of these (pictured below) and they are still as sassy as the originals.
However, if you're the type of person who likes to have the 'proper', 'original' version but doesn't like the 'original' price then I have noticed that TK Maxx (I believe it's called Homesense in the US) have been stocking up on them for almost half the RRP. This applies to JuJu jelly shoes aswell. I purchased my heeled jelly shoes from New Look when they did a flash summer sandal sale event.
4). Bright Lipsticks- It's Summer, that means my bright lipstick collection has made another appearance. I have been loving Rimmel's Kate Moss lipstick in shade 110- a orangey red hue, as well as bright pink lipsticks and Bourjois's lip crayon in shade 03, orange punch.
5). Soap and Glory's Breakfast Scrub- And Finally this Body scrub is perfect all year round but it always feels particularly good to use a well-scented, well-working scrub in the Summer Months when you'll be showing off more skin tan usual. Mmm... I just love this scent. To me it smells like baking cookies or cake.
I hope you enjoyed this post let me know down below what your favourite Summer Products and accessories are, I'd love to here about them.

Pink, Prom and Perfect Dresses!
Heyy Gals,
So as you probably know it was my high school Prom a few weeks ago and I just thought I'd share with you some of the photos from the night and what dress and style I decided to go for.
Before there was any mention of Prom at school I knew that I wanted to go for a 50s style tea length dress. I have always appreciated and adored the pure class, innocence and elegance that the 50s style possesses. I did have a hard time finding this style of dress but after scowering many online stores and prom dress shops I found a large bridal store that stocked a wide range of dresses not that far from where I live. It was here that I found this gorgeous dress. It was originally a halter neck dress but I preferred it without the strap and so they were able to detach it for me. My dress was also originally in a very pale blue shade, but I also chose to have it remade in a baby pink. In this colour the dress also resembles the dress that Lorraine where's in Back To The Future when she goes to the The Enchantment Under The Sea Dance with Marty's Dad... which just so happens to be my favourite film.
Again, sticking with the 50s theme I opted for a winged eyeliner and a matte red lipstick. In order to achieve this striking colour I used a Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet- you can find my review of this linked below.
I absolutely love this moment that my Mum captured between me and my Auntie. And I thought I'd share it with you because you can see my pin up curls clearer and it might help you if any of you are trying to find a photo of a 50s pin up hairstyle.
I had a lovely time with my friends at Prom. Everyone looked fabulous and I wish everyone at my school and anyone who's just left high school all the best for the future. May you have a fun filled Summer and a brilliant start at whatever you go on to do.

You can't tell on these pictures but the dress also has an overlay of ivory dots on it which exemplifys the 50s flair. My peep toe heels are from New Look and my clutch bag is from Next.

Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet REVIEW
Hey Guys, so today I thought I'd review the Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet in shade 01 for you. I wore this at Prom on Thursday as I went for a classic 50s style dress and so I opted for this well pigmented striking pillar box red colour.
I heard about these in one of Gabby's (Velvet Ghosts) videos a long time ago, I can't remember which one, but I have wanted one ever since. Gabby said that her favourites was this shade and some of the more nude colours. However, I haven't delved into the nude shades yet, although I'll definitely be purchasing more of these.
Firstly, the packaging of this product is truly gorgeous. I think what makes it look so classy is the clear glass effect tube (I don't know whether I'm describing this properly) with the black simple typography over the top. Adding to this the bright red lip-gloss-type-product and you can tell that the product screams sophistication. For a drug store product Bourjois have made it as classic and cosmopolitan as possible.
The application of this product is made easy with the chunky doe-foot applicator.However, because I went for a bright colour some extra care always has to be taken. Because I wanted my lip to be as perfect as possible I decided to opt for a red lip liner. I used the Maxfactor colour elixir lip liner in shade 10, Red Rush. I think if I were to use my Rouge Edition Velvet in an ordinary everyday circumstance then I wouldn't have used the liner but just to be on the safe side I thought it was necessary.
The finish on this product is a beautiful matte look, Although if you prefer your lips shiny then this product does have a ''mirror like shine'' effect range. I personally prefer a matte finish so that's why I chose to get this one.
Finally, this product seems to last forever. When I was at prom I didn't feel like I had to top my lip colour up or check it every 2 seconds. In fact, I didn't top it up once while I was there (4 hours) although I probably should have done it once just so the colour was still popping. The most amazing thing about this must have product is that it does not transfer! I repeat IT DOESN'T TRANSFER! I think there is nothing worse than when you wear a red lipstick n it transfers onto the glass your using. I really hate that.
Comment down below if you hate that too and if you've ever used any of these products before let me know your views on them.

5 Top Tips For Last Minute Revision.
Hey Gals,
1). Get them post its out.
2). Use a variety of techniques.
3). Take a break.
Every 40 minutes or so remember to take a break from revision. Taking breaks regularly between revision sessions is proven to help you remember and implant things into your brain. Just try to keep a good ratio between breaks and actual revising.
4). Focus on the things you really don't know anything about- there's no point revising things you already know!
5). Try to stay calm.

As most of you are aware GCSE exams start this up coming week and if your as unorganized as me you'll have left the subjects you hate to revise for last minute. And now your panicking. I'm not going to say you brought this all on yourself- I've been there, i know that now you're probably looking at your revision guide and thinking 'what even does this word mean?' I feel ya. But honestly, lets just put maximum effort in for these next 3 weeks and I'm sure will pay off for the rest of your life. So here goes my 5 top tips for last minute revision.
1). Get them post its out.
Yep, you heard. For me the best revision technique is using 900 million post it notes. Of course, not actually 900 million but you get the idea. I use these to jot down key points and sometimes definitions of words. Sometimes I stick them up around the house so that when I'm putting my makeup or whatever I can just look at it and try and stick it to my brain. This really helps me with key terms. Plus when your sitting in the exam you can think back to where that post it is the house and remember whats on it. However, this is more effective if you do it quite a while before your exams. I also use the post it notes as flashcards sometimes. So when I eat my tea I'll take a post it note and sit with it in front of me and voila by the time you've finished you know it half by heart. You can even take them on a car journey with you and just cover the word and then try and recite the meaning. That works particularly well with English Literature quotes.
2). Use a variety of techniques.
One of the reasons you get bored when doing revision is because you sit there with your head in a text book and reread the same paragraph over and over again. Sure, using a revision guide is perfect for getting your information some times but try to mix things up from time to time. Try finding useful revision videos on 'YouTube' or visit websites such as 'BBC Bitesize'. I found particularly useful apps on my phone. I've been liking 'Eduvee' for science revision. It allows you to watch videos about which ever topic you wish to learn about, read information on it and test yourself. I've also been loving 'Gojimo' as you can select the topics that are relevant to you and even select different exam boards for each topic which is really useful. Plus, both of these apps are free on the Apple App Store.
3). Take a break.
Every 40 minutes or so remember to take a break from revision. Taking breaks regularly between revision sessions is proven to help you remember and implant things into your brain. Just try to keep a good ratio between breaks and actual revising.
4). Focus on the things you really don't know anything about- there's no point revising things you already know!
I know that when you pick up your revision guide and you have a look at all the topics you need to know the first thing you do is panic about all the things that you don't know how to answer the questions to. Then the next thing you do is think ''Let's do *insert best topic* because I know how to answer that. DON'T DO IT. You're making it worse for yourself. If you know a small amount about a lot of topics then that's better than knowing everything about 2 topics and just praying that they come up on the exam.
5). Try to stay calm.
I know it's hard but try and stay calm.If you begin to panic your definitely going to forget things. Before you go into your exam try and do something that makes you more calm. I usually listen to music whilst looking through some key notes. Just stay calm and you'll be fine.
Good Luck to anyone sitting there GCSE's this year or any other exam for that matter. I'm sure you'll do brilliantly.

rAnDoM cute hAuL.
Hey Gals, so as you can tell by the funky title I've got a cute lil' random collective haul for you today. I am in love with all of these goodies I have brought recently whether it's from clothes to miscellaneous randomness so I guess you could put this in the category of a 'Favourites' as well. Here goes....
The first item is clothing and it is this gorgeous yellow, flower print rain coat/mac. I absolutely adore this coat, I fell in love with it as soon as I saw it. I just know that it is going to be prefect for throwing in my bag when I'm off out in the Summer- let's face it the British weather is completely unpredictable. This would also be good if your off to a festival this year and I don't think it was even that expensive. You can pick this beauty up from Next.
Me and my friends like to go 'Charity Shop' shopping every once in a while, as you can usually find unique clothes in there and one off items all at really cheap prices. Whilst also donating to charity so there's definitely no regret of spending too much money. On our latest trip I picked up this book by Colin Dexter. It's the last book in the Inspector Morse Series and I know it is going to be so sad. I'm really looking forward to being able to read this in the Summer when I've got a lot more free time.
I wondered into Boots not too long ago to pick up a few basic essentials that I'd run out from: one of them things being concealer. I decided to try out 'Rimmel's Wake Me Up' Concealer and i can honestly say I have not been disappointed. It's got brilliant coverage but is also really light.
My mum had a few vouchers left over from Christmas and so she gave them to me and I decided to buy this beautiful casual denim dress from Dorothy Perkins. I can't remember exactly how much it was, I think it was about £20 but it was quite the bargain really. I can't wait to where this in the warmer months without the need for tights and Dr Martens. However, this is a brilliant transitional piece from Spring to Summer.
Whilst in Boots I also picked up another tube of the Tea Tree Witch Hazel 'shine control day moisturizer' . I absolutely love this stuff and cannot live without it but I won't go on about it too much as I have written a blog post on it before. I'll leave the link for that down below if you want to go and check it out. I also purchased my usual liquid foundation: 'Rimmel's Match Perfection' foundation in shade Ivory. This is my go-to foundation I love how it isn't 'cakey' but does have a really good coverage.
I needed a new pair of basic jeans so I hopped on over to New Look and bought some standard black jeans. I really love the fit and comfort of New Look Jeans. However, after wearing these a few times I found that they are the type of material that seem to attract pet hair like crazy. This sin't very good for me as I live in a house with two cats and a dog. I have resulted to buying another pair of black jeans from Primark and just wearing these on special occasions.
I bought this stunning purse from New Look as well. Originally, I was looking for the lilac version of this purse but they didn't have it in stock so I bought this one instead. I must say I have been receiving many lovely compliments about how pretty it is. It isn't only pretty though, it's practical too as it has lots of slots for cards as well as a large compartment for coins and cash.
I have been loving basic tee's lately and so I picked up a grey and black ringer tee from New Look. As I start College this Autumn I desperately need to fill out my wardrobe with some basic everyday essentials that I can just throw on when I am late to get up in a morning. And so i thought this would still look cute with a little necklace and a chunky cardigan.
I hope would've enjoyed this post and if you'd like me to do more hauls like this then comment below or follow me.

Bad News & Good News.
Hey Gals,
Firstly, I want to apologize that I haven't been posting much lately. There's lots of things been going on over the last 2 months. However there is some bad news, I'm afraid that Exam Season is starting for me on Monday and so for the next 1 month, I'm really going to be concentrating on revision and getting good grades in my exams.
I can promise that the day I have my first exam I will be updating regularly. And by regularly I mean like every couple of days. This Summer will be one of the longest breaks I have between college or whatever ever, so I'm going to try and do lots of things. I'll tell you all about my plans for the Summer in a month. I can't wait to document everything and share it with you guys.
Later today I'll post one more time before I have to log off for a month. :(
Please look out for that and I'm sure you'll join me in saying 'Bring on Summer'.
Leah - Pentatonic Pelly.

American Goodies!
As you may know, if you follow me on Twitter or Pinterest my brother and his girlfriend recently went to America for a fun packed city escape to New York. While they were there they bought some lovely things for moi and so I decided to share them with you in this post.
This a bag which they bought me from the Hershey store. As you will tell when you read on I have a real LOVE for Hershey's chocolate so this is why they bought me this. It is quite a large, structured bag, similar to the 'bag for life's' you can get here in the UK. I particularly love how the image of the cartoon chocolate looks quite retro.
Maybe, I should explain before I talk about this one. Previous, to when my brother and Kayleigh went into the Hershey store they had been struggling of what to bring me back from America so when they went into this chocoholics heaven they thought they would buy me a lot of Hershey stuff because they know that I absolutely love it. Plus, over here where I live it is quite expensive as everything is imported :(
So pictured above is a giant Hershey Kiss. Yep 198g of solid milk Hershey chocolate. It looks so pretty in it's box though so I really don't know when I will actually eat it.
This t-shirt I actually asked if they could bring me back.It's a Guardians Of The Galaxy burn out tee from Forever 21. I am in LOVE with this. It so brilliant- it's going to be perfect to throw on in the summer with some shorts and your hair in a cute messy bun. If any of you gals have watched this amaaaaaazing film then drop me a comment below- I think it's great. I watched it last night actually. It is one of the only Marvel films that I actually enjoy apart from the new 'SpiderMan' Movies but that's mainly because Andrew Garfield is super hot.
They also brought me back this amazing jumper that is just perfect for the spring time. It's a jumper but it's not really thick- I just know it's going to be brilliant for them mornings where it's freezing but by dinner time it's really warm. This was from American Eagle Outfitters.
They bought me these typical tourist souvenirs. Sorry if your are from America and arelooking at this and thinking why the hell is she getting excited about this stuff but yeah, I love these.
The cute key ring pictured to the left is really nice and you'll probably see it on my backpack in some pictures soon. I don't know whether you gals know but I have this collection of snow-globes that I've had since I was like 9 maybe and it just keeps on growing, so much so that I have to keep the majority in a box and swap and change them once in a while. So yep, this is another gorgeous snow-globe to add to my growing collection.
And finally the last two things-both Hershey of course. They bought me 2 classic bags of Hershey kisses (my favourite), 'Cookies n Cream' and milk chocolate, and a huge bottle of Hershey's chocolate flavour syrup. I can't wait to try out this syrup on pancakes or waffles... with strawberries. Mmm. Keep checking my Instagram and you'll probably see one of them within the next week :)
Thanks for reading, remember to share my blog with your friends if you enjoyed this and follow me on my other sites.
