♡ June Favourites ♡

Hi

Today I'm going to be doing my first ever favourites post. I know today is a Tuesday and I don't post today but from now on I will be posting my favourites on the last day of each month.

My favourites aren't really beauty related so there will be a little bit of everything like food, music, beauty and more

Lets get started!

Crazy Sour Skittles

I have the biggest sweet tooth ever so I love trying out new sweets and chocolate (although these aren't new). I love sour stuff so these are right up my alley. My favourite ones are the green ones so I always leave them till last- please say I'm not the only one because I always leave my favourites till the end. I also love the confused Skittles but I don't know if you can still get the big ones so I go for these ones now.

Fruit Works Grace Cole Strawberry & Kiwi Body Butter

(the fact that isn't in the middle is killing me)

This body butter smells divine. In the summer I always go for fruity scents so every night I have been moisturising my body with this and then I want to eat myself. It's really nice and I would recommend this; I also have the shower gel in this scent and I had a soap and a body lotion but they've run out and in the bin.

I got mine in a set at Christmas time and in came in a bag.

 

White & Gold Crystal Headphones from Claire's

I've only had these headphones since Saturday but I love them already. The sound quality is amazing and I wasn't expecting them to have the best sound quality as they're just from Claire's but these beauties passed by expectations. There was so many to choose from and I was going to chose THESE azetc ones or THESE floral ones but the bling ones are great all year round whereas the others are summery and you couldn't really wear them in the autumn and winter.

These headphones were £16, which I thought was pretty good.

 

Shut Up And Dance by Walk The Moon

This is definitely hands down my favourite song at the moment- I always jam out when I hear it. To prove that I love it so much is that when I was waiting for +Cerys G this song came on and I started singing (well lip-syncing, I didn't want to damage anybody's ears)- I must have looked a right idiot but I don't care. I would recommend you listen to this song now if you haven't- Here's the music video

 

Twitter

I have been addicted to Twitter this past month. My username is @louisesprinkles so if you want to follow me you can. I don't tweet the most interesting stuff but if you want to know my day-to-day life, Twitter is the place to read it.

I have been using Facebook this month but I prefer Twitter as more people use it and I find Facebook a bit boring although it's good to play games on!

 

Pinterest

 

 

 

  I love Pinterest. My username is Louise Carter and my boards include fashion (which is my main board), beauty, hair, home décor, fun teenager quotes and more. I prefer using it on my tablet because it's easier to pin things and like things whereas on the computer you  need to click and it takes more time.

My Pinterest- Louise Carter

 

Love Tanya by Tanya Burr

I really like book as I don't read much and when I do read books, I gravitate to non-fiction and this is a fashion, beauty and lifestyle book. I had to use a stock photo for this book because my friend Nicha is borrowing it. I really liked the photos in this book but if you would like to see some and read about the book in my detail, I actually wrote a review on it. Click here for the review

 

Superdry Makeup Bag/Pencil Case

This is my pencil case and I love it! I've loved the Superdry makeup bags for ages but I didn't buy one because I wasn't sure if I wanted to spend £10 on a pencil case but I'm so glad I did. It's a good size and a better size than my last pencil case (my last one was the Zoella beauty bag Just Say Yes one) and it's see-through so I can find my stationary easily.

 

Costa Creamy Cooler Belgian Chocolate

(this isn't mine; I forgot to take a picture of the one I had on Sunday)

This is my favourite drink ever! Every time I go to Costa I have one (we have started to go every Sunday morning) and I have even got my sister hyped up about these as they are just so good. I always have mine with cream with adds probably another 100 calories. I love these but my body doesn't as without cream it must have 250-300 calories and then I have cream (I might be over exaggerating but it's is Belgian chocolate!!!).

 

I hope you enjoyed this favourites post and let me know if you want a July favourites.

See you tomorrow,

Louise

What's In My Wardrobe???

Hi everyone!

Today I'm doing a What's In My Wardrobe. Basically I will be sharing with you my favourite pieces from my wardrobe and also my drawers.

I haven't seen anyone do this so I'm going to say this was an original idea made up by +Cerys G.

I hope you enjoy this post and let me know any requests in the comments below!

 

Floral Skater Dress from Primark

I love this dress so much! It has a bubblegum pink skater dress and then floral lace on top, which is super cute! It also has a hi-lo hem as the lace at the back is longer then at the front. This is the most glamorous dress I have in my wardrobe and I always take this on holiday or wear it to any formal occasion (which I never go to). I got this from Primark in 2013 I believe but it still fits well.

 

Pink Hoodie from Primark

This was a recent purchase and even though I haven't had it for ages, I have still had a lot of wear out of it. I won't be needing it much in the summer months but if it's raining or a bit windy, I would wear this. This hoodie has my favourite pockets which are great to put your phone/ iPod in if you like to listen to music.

 

Jeggings from Primark

This jeggings are amazing. They're really comfy so I like to wear these at weekends. If I was to get them again, I would get them in a different colour as sometimes you can't wear certain colours with these (e.g. green and mint green) so I would get them in a dark blue wash or black. The pockets are big enough to fit a phone which is great as I can then fit my phone in it when listening to music.

 

Kimono from H&M

I love the look of this kimono as it's more gothic but it can be a pain sometimes as the tassels are connected in 2s so they keep getting caught on drawer knobs in my bedroom and the kitchen. I got this on sale as it is actually a winter piece but I don't care. This kimono looks really nice with denim shorts and that's what I usually wear it with.

 

Peach Sun Dress from Primark

This sun dress is really nice and perfect for a hot summer day. I just wear it on it's own and it looks amazing! I love wearing dresses in the summer as you can get a tan (or burn but that's a con) and you feel more comfortable which is what I always want to feel. This is like nearly 2 years old but it still fits!

 

Pony Leggings from F&F at Tesco

These are my lounging around leggings. I don't wear these at this time of the year but in the autumn and the winter I wear these a lot. I don't go out in these but having a pair of leggings is perfect to lounge about in. In the autumn/winter I always wear printed leggings as they're comfy and a little bit more fashionable and my favourite place to get them is F&F as they're thicker than Primark ones so they last a little longer.

 

Minion (kinda) Crop Top from Primark

This is probably my favourite top in my collection. if you didn't know, I'm a big fan of minions so I'm super glad that Primark do loads of minion/Despicable Me tops and stuff. I like to wear this with my high-waisted black jeans because I'm not that confident with wearing proper crop tops. This isn't a proper crop top but it's still quite short.

 

Perfume Top from Primark

(My face- LOL!)

I have atucally had this top for about 2 years and it still fits great and it was from the kids section in Primark! This top is kinda see-through so you have to wear something underneath but that doesn't bother me. I love tops with slogans and things on so this top is great! It has this really pretty detailing at the top, which is like a necklace, so you don't have to wear a necklace.

 

Super Cute Top from Primark

(My face again- LOL!)

This was a recent purchase from Primark and I love it. It's really long which I love and it's really flowy which is how I like my tops. I wear this with jeans or tucked into denim shorts and it's super cute! I love tops with cute things on like this one. If you're looking for some cute tops, check out Primark!

 

I hope you enjoyed this post and I'll see you on Wednesday,

Q&A

Hi!

Today I'm doing a Q&A because I love watching/reading them and I haven't done one on this blog.

I've got these questions from YouTube videos and tag questions from tags that I won't be doing.

Lets get started!

 

Why did you start a blog?

I don't think I'm confident enough to start a YouTube channel, although I would like to in the future, so a blog was a easy option to express my thoughts on anything and recommend stuff.

What are your hobbies?
Journaling and writing this blog

How long does it take to write a blog post?
It depends on the length and if it has pictures or not but I like to break it down and write it in sessions so I can't really calculate how long it takes.

What's the most funniest thing to happen to you this year?
I'm not sure- I'll get one of my friends to answer that.
Friends- leave something funny I've done this year in the comments below

If you could only keep 5 possessions, what would they be?
1. My laptop as I spend most of my time on it.
2. My journal to look back at memories and pass the time.
3. My bed- I don't want to sleep on the floor
4. My tablet and headphones so I can play games and check Twitter and Pinterest
5. A lifestyle book (either Love Tanya or The Glam Guide) so I'm not spending all my time online and I try to read before bed (but that rarely happens)

If you could like somewhere other than Essex, where would it be?
Oh I love Essex!
Probably either London or Surrey because they seem nice places and I want to stay south. Or Brighton because it seems a cute place and it's by the sea!!! Brighton also has nice houses and apartments.

If you could only listen to one song for the rest of your life, what would it be?
I not sure as I know it would drive my head in but a song I really, really like is See You Again by Wiz Khalifa and Charlie Puth because it has a meaning to me.

What's your favourite song at the moment?
Bad Blood by Taylor Swift, Worth It by Fifth Harmony and Black Magic by Little Mix- I couldn't choose one!!!

You're ordering pizza, what's the toppings?
A BBQ base and cheesy stuffed crust with mozzarella cheese, green peppers, sweetcorn and red onion with maybe a little bit of bacon.

What's your dream job?
This probably won't happen but in an ideal world I would like to be a successful YouTuber and blogger.

Who's your favourite YouTuber?
It changes all the time but I love Bethany Mota, Alisha Marie, My Life As Eva and SierraMarieMakeup- as you can tell I love the American ones.

Some weird habit you have?
Taking 10,000 serviettes at coffee shops and making sure everything is straight as otherwise it gets on my nerves.

Do you prefer watching vlogs or main channel videos?
Main channel videos as most of the time they have a purpose but I do enjoy watching vlogs. I watch the SacconeJolys, who are an Irish family that live in Surrey and they vlog everyday, and I do enjoy their vlogs.

Would you ever go on Big Brother?
Hell no. I would be the first one voted out as I would be the most boring housemate.

What are your best and worst subjects in school?
My best is drama and my worst is everything else! My worst, worst ones are definitely PE, science and DT.

If you could date anyone in the world, who would it be?
I'm really stuck on this question.
Somebody who isn't famous.

What movie/TV show would you like to be living in?
Friends!!!

Where is your favourite place you have visited in the world?
Egypt as it was beautiful and hot! I went to Sharm El Sheik.

If the whole world was listening to you, what would you say?
I would probably say something stupid like 'what's for dinner' or something random. Or I might say about how I hate someone and they would be listening...

If you auditioned for The X Factor, what would you sing?
Well I wouldn't audition because I can't sing so move onto the next question...

If you was a Disney character, what one would you be?
The evil queen from Snow White although I wouldn't want to be her. If I was a princess, I would be Cinderella as I do everything for my sister.

What's your favourite ice cream flavour?
Chocolate and mint choc chip.

What are five things you always have with you?
1. Phone- in case of an emergency
2. Headphones- my life isn't complete without music
3. Purse- also in case of an emergency
4. Gum- stinky breath is a no-no
5. The lip product I'm wearing- If I eat whilst out I don't want to have messy lips

Would you bungee jump?
Hell, no. I'm scared of heights as it is and I would be scared that the rope would break and I would fall into the sea/ocean/river and die.

Have you ever had deja vu?
I get it quite often so I don't know if that's telling me something...

Favourite number?
I only like it when numbers end in either 5 or 0. Although, I like the number 9.

Who is your style crush?
I don't have one person that I go to for style inspiration but I get my style inspiration from bloggers and YouTubers.

What is your favourite food?
Chocolate, sweets and cookies- I have the BIGGEST sweet tooth.

Would you rather have unlimited TV and no YouTube or YouTube and no TV?
This is a hard one because I've been getting back into TV recently but I would go for YouTube as you can watch TV programmes on there but you do have to pay which is shit.

If you could learn any language, what would it be?
Chinese as their language looks so cool!

What is your favourite month of the year?
December. Not because of my birthday and Christmas but I like that it's the end of the year, everyone is more happy and relaxed and I like the feeling of cuddling up with blankets with the fire on watching TV in the evening!

Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
I would like to be in education still but have a job on the side and I would like to be learning how to drive but I think I would crash all the time.

Who is your idol and why?
I don't have one

If you had to share a house with 5 YouTubers, who would they be and why?
1. Bethany Mota but she wouldn't be there most of the time
2. AlishaMarie because she is really funny and I want her as my bestie and I would take her to Costa everyday instead of Starbucks
3. MyLifeAsEva because she is also funny and she would make awesome DIYs for my room.
4. Zoella because she is a great YouTuber and probably my favourite British one.
5. MayBaby as she is really funny and would make amazing food and DIYs.
The Pet- Nala as she is so cute- pugs are my favourite breed of dogs

Who would you like to play you in the movie of your life?
Jennifer Lawrence or the girl who played Hazel in The Fault In Our Stars movie but it's not based on looks.

Would you read a book about your life telling you how and when you're going to die?
Yes and no.

What do you usually spread on your toast?
Jam or chocolate spread. But NOT Nutella as I hate it.

If you was a dog, what breed would you be?
A pug as they're my favourites!

How many kids do you want?
1-3- anymore would be a handful!

I hope you enjoyed this Q&A and learnt some more about me!
See you on Wednesday

Wonderful Wednesdays

Hi!

Welcome back to another week of Wonderful Wednesdays.

This week is going to be about being yourself as I think it's important in life as some people don't respect others.

 

This is such a great quote!!!

I often see some people trying to look/act like someone else and I think it's rude because that's somebody else's tastes and beliefs.

I have friends (+Lucy Llamacorn and +SketchBook Humor) who like anime and if somebody tried to copy them, I would get upset because that's why they like.

I think you should do/wear/eat whatever makes you happy. If you like chicken nugget sandwiches with loads of ketchup (like me!!!), eat them! If you like wearing bikinis in the winter, wear them (although I don't advise that)!

 

The moral is BE YOURSELF, everyone else is taken.

 

I hope you will continue to be yourself and I also hope you enjoyed this post!

See you on Friday,

Louise

Technic Essentials Clear Carry Case Make-up Set| Review

Hi everyone!!!

Today I'm going to be doing a review on the Technic Essentials Clear Carry Case Makeup Set. I got this for my birthday last year so I've had it for over 6 months so I think I can give you a good review.

Lets get started!

 

Technic Essentials Clear Carry Case Make-up Set

£21.90 on Amazon

 

What's Included:

3x Nail Polishes

3x Lipsticks

2x Lipglosses

4x Eye shadow compacts

2x Lip Liners

2x Eyeliner pencils

3x Cream eye shadows

2x Foam double side applicators

2x Mini Face brushes

1x Powder

3x Blushes

2x Toe separators

1x Mirror

1x Cuticle pusher

1x Carry Compact

1x Nail File

1x Nail whitening pencil

1x Sharpener

 

Lipsticks

I like the lipsticks but the colour range isn't the best. You get a pink and 2 nudes whereas I would've preferred a pink, red and a nude. I haven't worn the nudes as they are a bit metallic-y and I'm kinda scared to wear them. I love the pink and it's my most worn lipstick as it's pigmented, it doesn't dry out the lips and it's a great colour- not too nude but not too bright!!!

Overall Rating: 4/5

 

Eye Shadows

I love the eye shadows in this set as there is 4 compacts and the formulation is great! There is 2 nude palettes and 2 more vibrant colours- blue and green. I'm not the best at applying eye shadows but I'm learning. I don't wear eye shadow a lot but when I do I will wear some from one of the nude palettes. I do have some eye shadows from a makeup case from Wilko that I got Christmas 2013 from my sister but the eye shadows are way too pigmented.

Overall Rating: 5/5

 

Lipglosses

I not a big fan of lip gloss as you can easily get your hair stuck to it and it comes off quite easily. I like the colours that you get- a baby pink and a coral- and they are really wearable. If I had a special event to go to, I probably would wear one of these because they are quite glamourous and as you wouldn't really wear it everyday so it's nice to wear it.

Overall Rating: 3/5

 

Nail Polishes

I like the colour selection of these nail polishes but they're not the best as they chip quite easily. I wore the green sparkly one at Christmas but it started to chip after 3 days so I was a bit disappointed. You get three colours- a pink sparkly one, a sliver and a green sparkly but it would've been nice to get some plain colours.

Overall Rating- 3/5

 

Eyeliner Pencils

 I love these eyeliner pencils! I've never used gel eyeliner as I'm scared I'll mess it up. I do want to try one of those gel pen eyeliners (like the Benefit They're Real Push Up Liner but that's £20) but I haven't got round to buying one. You get a brown and a black but I've only used the black one because I've got brown eyes.

Overall Rating: 5/5

 

Eyeshadow Bases/ Cream Eyeshadows

These are so crap! I swatched them before and they had no pigmentation whatsoever. If you was to wear them by themselves as a cream eye shadow, you wouldn't be able to see it as, especially the white one, don't show up well. I would use these as a base but I haven't tried it yet so I can't report back on that yet.

Overall Rating: 1/5

 

Powder

This powder is amazing! It's hard to put powders and face products in a case like this because not everyone has the same skin tone but luckily for me, it matches perfect with my skin tone. It would've been nice if it came in packaging that had a mirror but as you get two mirrors with this set, it doesn't really matter.

Overall Rating: 5/5

 

Blushes

The blushes are also great! You get three different colours- a lighter one, a light pink one and a darker one that you could use as a bronzer. I like to use the pink one and it's a great colour; I had a bright pink one in my Wilko (the supermarket) case  that I loved off but when it was on me, it looked like I had been in a marathon. There is something for everyone in terms of blushes.

Overall Rating: 5/5

 

Lipliners

Lipliners are great if you are attempting to get Kylie Jenner lips but I don't really care for them. You get a pink one (that matches the lipstick) and a red one but I don't understand why as you don't get a red lipstick with this set. I rarely wear lipliner but it's essential to wear it if you are wearing a red lip so it doesn't 'bleed'.

Overall Rating: 3/5

 

The Other Things

You get a lot of essentials with this case like miniature brushes, toe separators and mirrors. They are really good to have and it's nice that they are provided with this case. Even though they're quite small, they're actually really good!

Overall Rating: 5/5

 

My Overall Rating 

 

I hope you enjoyed this review!

I'll see you on Wednesday with another Wonderful Wednesday!

Lots of love,

Louise

My Handbag Collection

Hi!

Like I said on Monday today is another handbag post and this one is my handbag collection.

I have so many bags that's it unreal but that's what I like to spend some of my money on, at least it's nothing bad!

Most of the bags I have are from Primark as I can't afford designer handbags as I am only 13.

I also like switching up my school bags so that is why I have quite a few.

Lets get started!

Black Cross-Body from Primark

This bag is a wardrobe essential because it goes with every outfit and you can wear it to any occasion. This bag is really small so you can only take out the things that you really need like your phone (I think an iPhone 6 plus will just fit in it), keys, a small purse and a few makeup products- I like to take a lip balm, a carry compact and a lip colour. This bag was super cheap as I think it was £3.50. I don't care that there is no design as sometimes I don't want bold bags so I go back to this one.

 

Nude Cross Body from Primark

(Sorry about the weird lighting)
This is a great bag because you can fit all of your essentials in it, you can organise all of your essentials and it looks nicer than the bag above. The thing I love most about this bag is that this bag as three main pockets- a large one and two zip ones at the front and back. I don't use the zip pockets as they restrict what you can put in the main pocket. I love the design of this bag because the strap has really nice detailing because it starts off as a chain and then it's faux leather so it doesn't hurt your shoulder.

Nude cross-body from New Look

This bag is similar to the one above and truthfully, I prefer the one from Primark. I do like this one as it's a bit more glamorous than the Primark one; this one reminds me of a Chanel 2.55 as it has a very similar clasp and it has a chain strap, which I don't really like because it can hurt your shoulder if you are wearing a thin top or you're not wearing anything on it. This bag is smaller than the one above and inside it's annoying as the lining isn't stitched in properly which is super annoying.

 

Small Grey Bag from Primark

This is defiantly one of my favourite bags in my collection. It goes with everything, you can fit everything in and you can organise everything. This bag has three main/large pockets- a large one with a popper and two zip pockets at the front and back. There is also three mini pockets in the main compartment as their is two phone pockets and a zip pocket at the back where you can keep lady bits. At the side there is two poppers and it makes the bag more structured and makes it look like a Prada. This bag also comes with a schoulder strap but I don't use it as it's two short and you can't adjust it.

 

Pink Chanel from Egypt

This bag is a fake.

This is my fake Chanel that I love. It's really hard to wear but I'll probably be wearing this lots in the summer as it's the brightest bag that I have. I have had a major fashion faux pas with this bag but I'll explain in another post. There is so many compartments in this bag as there is one at the back, one when you open the clasp and five when you open the popper into the main section of the bag. Even though it looks small from the outside, you can actually fit quite a bit in this bag which is surprising. This bag has some good memories as I used it as a clutch to my Year 6 discos (we had two) as you can make it a clutch by pulling in the chains.

 

Celine bag from Turkey

 

This bag makes me feel stylish as I see lots of fashionable girls on Pinterest with real Celine bags. This bag is fake but it is real leather and I love it. In Turkey, there is so many fake things you can get which I think is amazing but the real companies won't!!! if there is any designer thing you want (even Superdry and Hollister) they most likely do out there. I love this bag because it's so big and it's probably the second biggest bag in my collection. I don't use this bag much but I used it recently when I went round Cerys' and when I went shopping in Stratford.

 

Large Shopper bag from Miss Lulu at Amazon

This is such a great bag. It's very roomy and it's a great design. I've loved this design of bag for ages, especially the tan ones. This bag has three main pockets- 2 open ones and a small zip pocket dividing the other two. The only problem I have is that the lining isn't very nice and it isn't snitched on properly just like the New Look bag.
I have used this bag for school a couple of times and it's really good; I'm thinking about using it next school year as my bag on a full time basis.

Pauls Boutique style bag from Primark

This bag is defiantly one of my least used but I still like it. I feel like I don't have any outfits that look a-ma-zing with this bag and I won't use it much now as it is more of a winter bag because of the patient. I got this bag for my 12th birthday and I used it a lot when I first got it but I don't use it any more. I was really happy when I got this as I had loved Paul Boutique bags for a while and even though it wasn't a real one, I still really liked it. You can fit everything you need and there is a phone pocket and a zip pocket at the back.

Blue Triangular bag from Primark

This bag was such a bargain!!! It was only £5 because it was on offer and it was the last one in the shop. I used this as my carry-on when I went to Turkey last year but it wasn't that good. I love the bag and it's perfect now but it wasn't the best carry-on choice as I couldn't fit everything in it after I got a magazine and stuff at the airport going. I use this bag quite a lot because I love the cobalt blue colour and I love triangular bags. My only problem is storage as this bag looses it shape really easily.

 

3 Pocket Large Bag from Primark

This bag is the biggest version of the grey bag near the beginning of the post. This bag was my school bag at the beginning of the school year and it was a great bag. I could fit everything in it and it was stylish and came with a shoulder strap. This bag has 3 main pockets, which I won't explain again, but the zip on the front zip pocket broke (you can't shut it) but I still kept a pack of pens and a notebook in there so not all was lost. This bag looks like a Prada because of the poppers on the side and the three main pockets which is great as it shows that you can designer inspired bags from Primark, the bae's place!

 

Pink Butterfly Sactual from Miss Lulu

This bag is really nice but was a disappointment. I had only been using it for about a week when I noticed that one of the straps had started to tear off. I still used it for another 2 weeks but the tear was tearing more so I had to stop using it in case it broke in school. Also, I couldn't fit everything I needed in it so I couldn't do it up which was super annoying. I loved the design of this bag and I love sactuals but this one was too small.

 

3 Colour Cross Body from Primark

 Sorry about the bad picture- it wouldn't stand up properly

 To be honest, I don't know why I got this bag as when I got home I kinda regretted it. However, I do wear it and I do like it but it's not my favourite. You can't fit that much in it and when I went on a school trip last year, I couldn't shut it and then I was scared of being pickpocketed, especially as it was in the British History Museum. I like that this bag has a shoulder strap and a handle but I like to use the shoulder strap. I used this a lot last spring but I think I've used it once this year.

 

Pink Bag from Primark

I love this bag. It's a great size and it fits all of my essentials. I got this on sale in Primark

because it was the day after Boxing Day and most shops had their sales still on; I got this bag for £5. This bag goes with most outfits (unless they're red) and as it's not a bright pink colour, it can go with much more outfits. I love bags that are medium sized as they look stylish, especially when they are being held by hand and you are kinda limited to what you can fit into them, which is a good thing so you don't over pack.

 

Black Structured Backpack from Primark

This was my most recent bag purchase as I got it in the Easter holidays when I went shopping with my sister and her bestie Poppy. I already have another backpack, which you will see soon, but I've always wanted a structured one because I think they're more stylish and they look less like a school bag. This one has loads of pockets- 2 zip ones at the front, which you can see, 2 sides ones but you can't fit much in them, the main bucket one and a mini zip pocket at the back.

 

Denim Backpack from Primark

This is my school bag and I love it. My favourite school bags are backpacks and this is probably my favourite school bag I've ever had!!! I love the drawstring backpacks even though they are a bit time consuming. This one is super roomy as it has a large pocket, 3 outside pockets and a zip pocket inside. This bag doesn't get heavy and if I use my pink Miss Lulu bag, it gets really heavy. The best thing about having a backpack is that you are hands-free and that's the best feeling in the world!!!

 

I hope you enjoyed this!!!

This took me ages to write (as I kept procrastinating!).

Thanks for reading,

Louise

Wonderful Wednesdays #3

Happy Hump Day!

Today is Wednesday and what does that mean? Wonderful Wednesdays!

I hope you are enjoying this series as I know I am!
Todays quote is about friends (not the TV show sadly).

 

 I love this quote because it's really like me.

I'm really quiet when out (unless I'm with friends then strangers think I'm crazy) as I don't like being centre of attention and being a show-off. Also, you never have a second chance to make a first impression.

My friends think I'm outgoing as I'm always hyper (but not first thing in the morning) because I will make weird sounds and noises and just act like a lunatic.

I'm even worse in front of my besties as I get super, super hyper and will start singing- badly as I can't sing- and just act like I'm bonkers but I know I am. I'm also lucky that they accept me for who I am as my old friends didn't.

I don't care of what people think of me; lots of people think I'm weird or quiet but to be honest, everyone is different and I would rather have one loyal friend than loads of friends as with loads of friends, you wouldn't know who to trust.

 

I hope you enjoyed this post about friends as I think it's a good topic to talk about so expect more friends posts.

Thanks for reading

My Handbag Essentials

Hi!

This week on LouiseSprinkles is handbag themed! As you might know, bags are my weakness and because I love them so much, I thought I would dedicate a week to them. My Wednesday post will still be a Wonderful Wednesday.

Todays handbag-themed post will be my handbag essentials. I'm always mixing up my handbags as because I have so many, I like to match my bag to my outfit.

Most of the things I will be showing you fit in most of my bags as I usually carry a medium size bag.

Lets get started!!!

 

 

Phone

My phone is the Samsung Chat which is basically Samsung's version of a BlackBerry. The phone is alright but I would like a smartphone as my sister, who is younger, has a smartphone. I mainly listen to music on my phone as I love listening to music.

 

Headphones

My headphones are from Sony at Amazon (link here) and I love them. The design isn't as good as the ones I had before, which were black and had gold spikes, but the sound quality and practicability is better. I don't have to have the volume quite loud as I did with my old headphones so I only have it on 3 or 4 whereas before I had to have it on 10.

 

Sunglasses

My sunglasses are fake Ray-Bans from Turkey. They are pink and are the wayfarer style; I was going to get the aviators but I didn't know if they would fit my face so I played it safe and went for the wayfarers as I knew they were going to fit my face as my real glasses are that shape.

 

Purse 

My purse is from Primark and I love it and because it's so big, I sometimes use it as a clutch bag. This purse has so many pockets so I can keep all of my money, vouchers and receipts organised.

In case you was wondering, I actually keep my Zip Card (an Oyster card for teens) in my purse but I rarely go on buses anymore.

 

Tangle Teezer

My Tangle Teezer is my bae as I love it so much. I use it everyday as it doesn't hurt my head and it only takes 10 seconds to comb my hair. I also use this in school after PE as my hair is a mess and it makes it look alright. I have the pink one but they do it in so many colours.

 

Makeup Bag/Essential Bag

This is the bag that I keep my makeup in but also any essentials that I might have. My makeup bag is from the Zoella Beauty range and it's the Just Say Yes one; I actually used to use this as my pencil case.

Inside I have:

• So many hair band that is unreal
• A nail file
• Mini hairbrush
• A body spray (currently I have Impulse Romantic Spark)
•  Tissues (from Kleenex)
• Hand Cream (from Miss Cutie Pie at Argos)
• Bumble and Bumble Thickening Hairspray  
• A mirror from Technic
• Opium by Yves Saint Laurent
• A real silver mirror
• Nieva Lip Balm
• Maybelline Baby Lips Electro in Strike A Rose
• And the makeup I'm wearing that day

That is everything!

I hope you enjoyed this different version of a what's in my bag!

See you on Wednesday

Louise
