Easter holiday to Selsey!

Hey guys!

So over the Easter weekend, I went on holiday to Selsey,

with me my boyfriend, my mum, my grandma, my younger brother and my cousin.

It was alot of fun and it was good to get away for a long weekend and have a break, 

I really needed that!

So I thought I would share with you some of the pictures I took and I can also

look back on this post in the future and remember the good memories :)

I hope you all had a great Easter and I hope you enjoy!

On the way to the caravan site, where we were
going to be staying!

Hello Spring...

So spring officially began in the UK on the 20th I think!
I am quite sad to see Winter go, because this may sound weird to most people but Winter is my absolute FAVOURITE season!!
I just love the atmosphere when it is around Christmas time, and I love being able to get cozy with a nice hot chocolate or cup of tea, snuggle under a blanket while it is cold, dark and rainy outside.

But I am going to try to enjoy Spring and Summer more this year, I am more excited for it than I usually am. Last year was very very difficult for me and Summer/Spring last year was probably the worse one of my life, so I want to make this Spring and Summer the best ever!

I just got back from my Easter holiday to Selsey with my boyfriend and my family, so that was a great start to Spring! I am going to be doing a blog post showing you some pictures and stuff from my holiday soon, so stay tuned for that :)

Anyway I just thought I would write this post to say "HELLO SPRING" and "GOODBYE WINTER"

And I am excited to see what this Spring brings :)

Thankyou for reading! And I hope you had a great Easter!
Please follow my blog if you would like to see more from me:)

I hope you have an amazing day!!

Liebster Award!

So I was nominated for this award by another blogger called Marie from Mariestateofmind. Thankyou so much for nominating me. I had never even heard of this but it was cool to be nominated anyway :) I dont think I have ever been nominated for anything! It sounds like a good concept and a good way for new/small bloggers to get noticed and find other new bloggers!


So what is the Liebster Award?
It is an award that is given to fairly new bloggers who have a small following (usually less than 200). You are generally nominated by other award winners in an effort to be recognized and connect with other bloggers. The word Liebster is German for sweetest, lovely, kind.


The rules include:
1) Make sure to thank the blogger who nominated you and link back to their blog.
2) Answer 11 questions from the blogger that nominated you.
3) Nominate 5-11 bloggers for their award.
4) Ask your nominees to answer 11 questions



So now I am going to answer the questions that Marie asked:



1. Do your family and friends know you blog, if they do, are they supportive?
Yeh my friends and family know that I blog, I dont think my family are that interested though, I think they kind of see it as pointless and a waste of time which is sad because it is my passion and something I love doing and an escape from my anxiety and depression. My best friend has always supported me though! Love you D'nelle if you're reading ♥

2. Why did you start your blog?

I just checked and I just realized that today, or when I am writing this - on the 23rd -  is my blogs 4 month anniversary!! Or it has been 4 months since I uploaded my first blog post :) 

It feels like ive been doing it forever though. I started writing a blog because my anxiety was very bad to the point where I was unable to really leave my house so I had nothing else to do and wanted a sort of escape from the real world and somewhere I can talk about my feelings and my life and things that interest me like beauty and youtube :)

3. What is your favourite movie?

I honestly dont have a favourite movie, but I like anything disney. I love childens films more than adults because im just a big kid at heart ☺

4. Cats or dogs?

Definitely dogs (sorry any cat lovers) I have 2 dogs myself and I love them more than anything. And everytime I see a dog I just want to run up to it and stroke them. I am obsessed. I think it is becoming a problem. Oh and I am allergic to cats so I cant really go near them.

5. What advice would you give your younger self?

I think I would give my younger self a lot of advice if i could. But I think the main thing would be to not worry about what other people think, just to be yourself and love yourself for who you are, because that is something I have always struggled with doing.

Thats a bit serious and deep. I would tell myself that bright blue eyeshadow really does not suit you!!

6. Favourite beauty product?

My favourite beauty product will probably have to be concealer (specifically collection lasting perfection concealer at the minute) I have quite bad under eye circles so I am pretty much always wearing concealer.

7. What is your favourite thing about yourself?

My favourite thing about myself is probably my kindness :) aww so cheesy! It can sometimes be a problem because I care about others more than myself sometimes. But I think majority of the time it is a good thing and I think i have a very kind heart and I couldnt ever be mean to any one, its just not in my nature! I just think that is how everyone should be ♥

8. What is your biggest fear?

My biggest fear is really deep and morbid, but I am so afraid of dying, I know obviously it will happen one day but it just terrifies me and if I think about it for too long I go insane and...

Ok I need to stop talking about this now.

9. What is your favourite way to relax?

I am often finding myself in need of a bit of relaxation. What I enjoy doing is running myself a nice bubble bath, relaxing in the bath for a while then getting out making my self a nice brew, getting into some nice cozy pj's and snuggling up under a blanket watching some YouTube videos!

10. Do you find blogging easy?

I find it quite difficult sometimes to think of a topic that I think people will enjoy and find interesting, but once I have thought of a topic I usually just ramble on for ages and dont stop!

But it isnt too difficult because I just talk about things that interest me so if it interests me then I find it quite easy to talk about, if that makes sense.

11. Tea or Coffee?

And finally, the most important question of them all ☺

Tea or Coffee? I used to be a coffee girl until my anxiety got really bad and I realized that caffeine isnt good for anxiety. So i havnt had caffeine in like a year now! But I usually drink a decaf tea or a hot chocolate :)

My questions for you to answer are:

3.Trousers or dresses?
4. What is your dream/goal in life?
5. If you could have 3 wishes what would you wish for?

w7 eyeshadow palette review

So I mentioned these eyeshadows in my February favourites and possibly my November favourites

I thought I would dedicate a whole post to them because that is how much I love them ♥
And I just thought I would give you a little review, and I wanted to recommend them if anyone is looking for new, cheap, eye-shadows to buy!

I know normally you get what you pay for and if you buy cheap makeup the quality isn't as good as high end makeup. But these eyeshadows are probably the best low end/drugstore/high street eyeshadows I have tried.

How I clean my makeup brushes!

Welcome back ☺

Today I am going to be showing you guys how I clean my makeup brushes. It's really quite simple, I do this probably once every 2 months, I'm not sure if this is enough I probably should be cleaning them more often, but this is just what I do at the moment. 

I didn't wash all of my brushes for this post because they didnt all need washing I just washed the ones that needed a good cleaning ☺

Mothers day tea partay!

So it was mothers day not too long ago, and my grandma threw a little tea party at her house, she always does the best food and lays it out amazingly and it is always so fun, so i thought I would show you a couple of the pictures i took :)
I hope you all had an amazing mothers day and just an amazing day when you are reading this ♥

Anxiety Sucks!

This post may not interest everybody but I am hoping that people with anxiety or people who know somebody with anxiety can read this and get more of an understanding or get some sort of help out of this
Anxiety is a very serious mental illness that so many people suffer with, yet it gets overlooked so easily because it is not a visible illness. About a quarter of the population will experience some kind of mental health problem in the course of a year.

I have been suffering with sever anxiety since the age of about 13, for every single person anxiety is different, majority of people feel anxious at serious and scary times in their life, however people that suffer with anxiety are anxious constantly and usually for no reason. I can't really talk about how anxiety is for everyone i can only talk about my experience. 

Just a quick update

Ok so this is a bit of a random post, but I am feeling proud of myself so wanted to write it on here so that I can look back on this and possibly inspire other people.

So as you may or may not know I suffer with really bad anxiety to the point where i hardly leave my house and struggle even answering my phone to my family because I get so anxious. I currently dont have a job because of my stupid anxiety but I have been looking for one for the past like 5 months now. I have had interviews which I find so difficult doing and i absolutely hate it but i managed to do it however i get nothing out of it because i dont get the job!

Today I was feeling so anxious because i got an email saying someone was going to call me for a telephone interview for a job i applied for and i had been feeling sick all day, however i managed to do it!!

I was so close to not answering the phone but I did i was terrified i couldnt really talk properly on the phone my voice was all shaky and i probably sounded like an idiot but i done it! I also had another phone call from someone calling about me going to interview on friday and i managed to talk to them on the phone and keep my cool and not burst into tears and have a panic attack!

So I thought I would just write about it because I felt so proud and if i tell my family im proud they wont really understand because this sounds simple and easy to most people but if you have anxiety then you will understand.

So i just wanted to say if any of you are reading this and have anxiety and are too afraid to do something, I hope this pushes you to do it because I just have to tell myself what is the worse that can happen i know that is hard to do, but even if you dont get anything out of it you will feel so proud of yourself for doing the thing that terrifies you! YOU CAN DO IT!! I BELIEVE IN YOU!! ♥
