Holiday Essentials!

I guess you could say Summer is pretty much over, with schools and colleges going back the Autumn term begins and the trees changing their colours. But for me? I'm still holding on to two more weeks of sunshine and beach days In Italy where I'll be flying to tomorrow *screeches with excitement* So I figured it would be perfect to show you the things I'll be taking away with me.

Everything here is going in my hand luggage can just about fit it all in one bag! I've got my two toiletry bags, one is for my basic beauty products and then the bigger one is just for the extra toiletry things you usually bring with you when you go away. I then prefer carrying a small bag around with me especially when I'm on long days out and exploring places I'd rather not carry around a huge bag on my shoulders. This cute black and studded bag is perfect for carrying the main every day essentials.
I'm currently reading 'Fangirl' although I've started reading it but have stopped myself so I can save the rest for while I'm away haha! I'm sure I'll find a lot of time to relax and do a bit of colouring in my new colouring book, takes me back to my younger days! I'm really excited to take away my DSLR with me it'll be fun to play around in a new change of scenery! I also bought myself a disposable camera as you may have read in my last post (also takes me back to my childhood)
Then of course gotta take the Ipod, phone and sunnies!

Toiletry Bag 

S&G hand gel (Smells amazing!) 

Travel sized tangle teaser 

Brilliant Brunette Shampoo 

Travel Sized Dry Shampoo 

Protect & Shine hair spray 

Dove Deodorant Pomegranate

Floss 

Threw the eye shadow in there because it's a little too big for the smaller bag! 

Nail Polish remover 

Baby Lips 

Lasting Perfection Collection concealer 

Revlon lip stick 

Lip balm (apple package) 

Instead of foundation I decided to take some BB cream instead because it's much lighter on your skin. 

Hope your all having a good week! There may not be any blog posts for two weeks or so because I'd like to stay away from the internet as much as I can (watch that fail) haha but I just wanted to focus on the holiday and try and take myself away from everything for a little while and just have a nice long break. May do a few update posts while I'm there, we'll see! 

But until next time, I'll be back soon!

Things I'd like to achieve by the end of 2015

I really can't believe that we're almost half way through the year already. I was sat here thinking to myself what have I actually acheieved this year? Back at the start I had a list of things I wanted to get done and things I hoped I would have achieved. But as each day quickly flew by it's lead up to this day when I've realised I've not actually done much at all.

If your in the same position as me there's still plenty of time to get things done yes six months have gone but we still have six months left. So I figured I would create a list again and post it on my blog and hopefully by the end of this year I can look back on it and at least would have achieved most of them or at least tried! 

Be Healthy/More exercise 

I admit this is something I haven't been doing so well, the temptation of cakes and yummy food takes over me and I just seem to give in to them all the time, oops! I have been doing a little bit more exercise but definitely need to do a whole lot more. 

 Over the last couple of years I've been considering doing Trek America, after doing research about it and hearing other people's experiences about it I'm so sure that this is something I would love to do. Now I just need to decide which tour and when I'd like to go! I'd also be going on my own which is a little daunting. 

 I eventually want to leave my job and start doing something that I'm proud of and that I love doing. I haven't yet found a job that I love and enjoy and I hope that sometime soon or someday I can find that. 

 Be happy/positivity 

This is something I've been trying to work on, I've done well in some situations but mostly I let the negativity take over me. This year I wanted to focus on myself and wanted every day to be an opportunity to get to know myself more and like myself. 

I also wanted to do something completely out of my comfort zone, I didn't have any idea what that would be but I wanted to do something that no one would expect me to and that I wouldn't expect myself to do. 

What would you like to achieve this year?
