Bucket List.

Earlier in summer I did a Summer Bucket List which got me thinking of general things I want to do. I've been writing this list for a while and thought it would be fun to share it with you as I've run out of ideas!

1. Visit New York


This is probably on the list on all teenagers everywhere but I still stand by it! I love busy atmospheres and cities, plus the shops look so amazing! I want to do this before I'm 30 in an ideal world! I would also love to visit the museums there!

2. See the northern lights


They're so beautiful and I would love to actually see them in person.

3. Go to a fashion week event (London, Paris or New York)


I think going to a show like Orla Kiely, Tory Burch or Kate Spade would be amazing as their clothes are gorgeous and quirky!

4. Have a best friend by the time I'm 20

I haven't had a proper best friend as such for a few years now as my secondary school friendship group was a big group of close friends, but I've never been closer to one person than everyone else - I would love to have that sort of thing with someone!

5. Work in a museum


Museums are one of my favourite places in the world - there's so much history under one roof and it's great being able to look at it all. Being able to work with it all would be amazing - I love learning and being surrounded by history, a museum would be a perfect for me.

6. Visit Paris


It looks like such a pretty city, it would be amazing to visit one day!

7. Get a 'usual' somewhere

It would be quite fun to go somewhere so much that the servers know what I have!

8. Go to Winter Wonderland at Hyde Park



It looks like so much fun but I've never been able to go because I've never had anyone to go with! Hopefully I'll be able to go this year!

9. Have longer hair

My hair has been above my shoulders for the last 7 years and I've been trying to grow it longer again - hopefully in the next year it'll be below my shoulders properly instead of mid way like it is now!

What are some of your guys' bucket list items?

Hairspiration

Topic 10 of the blogger challenge was hair so I decided to put together a list of people & pictures that I would love to have hair like. My hair is quite poofy and frizzy and refuses to do what I want so a post about mine was out of the question.

1. Carrie - wishwishwish
Carrie has the prettiest of hairstyles and manages to pull of everything she does - I'm super jealous as it always looks so perfect! Can we also appreciate how gorgeous her outfits are too?! She always dresses so nicely.
She proves that you don't have to have super long hair (I sure don't!) to be able to do pretty and different things with your hair.

2. Zoe - Zoella
Pretty much everyone loves her but there's obviously a reason for that right?! I wish my hair was that long and still looked that good.

3. Carly - thecollegeprepster
I love her style so much and her hair is just amazing - this is the length I would love to have some day!

These are my current hairspirations that I can think of off the top of my head!

Heads...

So this post is going to be the first of four! I've never done anything like this before so if it's a bit rubbish, bear with!

Hats
I have quite a lot of hats. I have poofy hair that's too short to put up so if it's a bit strange looking, or I just can't be bothered in the morning, I'll put a hat on; simple! I mainly wear beanies/berets because they look cute and they're light but warm!
I have roughly around 20 hats but I really only wear 6 because they go with nearly everything and can look cute or a bit edgy which I like!

My most worn and favourite hats!

Make up
I don't really wear a lot of make up, but when I do its mostly quite subtle so people don't realise anyway! I have a few favourite products I use the most often:


Alice in Wonderland palette from Urban Decay and
Brush set from Ruby and Millie
I was given this Alice in Wonderland eyeshadow palette for either a birthday or Christmas by a family member (I think it was my grandma...?) a while back and it's fantastic! I don't wear eyeshadow very often, but if I do, I wear one of these. The colours are quite subtle (minus the electric blue and purple, but who's counting them?!) so they're nice!! Plus having the black, grey and white means that I can do a really nice smoky eye!
The Ruby and Millie brush set is amazing! I mainly use the eye one (they're labelled with where they're meant to be used! So handy!) for the eyeshadow, but there's a thin one that is good for the corners and flicks in my smoky eye!

From left to right: Red Devil by 17, Plum Beautiful by No.7 and
Belle by 17
Recently I've been finding more outfits that I can use my red lipstick for as a statement piece (every outfit needs one, right?) and I'm loving it!! It's more of a pink-y red so it isn't as shocking but it still packs a punch when people see it!
Plum Beautiful was actually the first lipstick colour I got (present from a friend for my birthday a few years back) and I love it! It's darker than my lip colour so it's a nice way of being subtle but noticeable.
Belle was the first lipstick I bought and it's the exact shade of my lips so if I feel like putting on some make up without being noticeable, I'll wear this because it just gives my lips a nice shine.

Top to bottom: No.7 black waterproof mascara, Maybelline line definer black liquid eyeliner
and Bourjois black eye pencil
The most used 3 in my make up lot! My waterproof mascara is fantastic, it doesn't move unless I rub my eyes (I have a very annoying habit of doing this when wearing make up...) and it lengthens my lashes really well! It's just a shame that because of my glasses, you can't really see my eye make up very well!
My liquid eyeliner is so good, it's a little pointed sponge applicator that means you can make thin or thick lines and flicks which looks really good if you do it right!
My pencil eyeliner is good for under my eyes because it fades nicely to look like a natural line after a while!

So I hope you found this a little interesting and hopefully tomorrow will be a little better!
