'A few of my favourite things'- July Favourites

So I know we're already like 12 days into August, but better late than never for a favourites post, right? 

I'll start off with something I loved right at the beginning of the month, which was my MUA lip liner in shade- Red Drama, which is ironic because I used it for my Drama show, ha! My Drama group did our Senior Production in early July, and we did a play called 'Porridge', and I played the character Goldie and we had it that I wore red lipstick. Now I'm not one for red because I find that it comes off really easy, on me anyway, and leaves a gross lipstick outline, but my friend recommended that I wore a lip liner with my lipstick and I can tell you that gross lippy outline was averted on stage, which was fab! So this was defo a fav for this month, and has made me more confident in wearing red lipstick. 

Lip Liner- £1 from Superdrug 

 Second beautyish favourite has been my Tangle Teezer. This is basically a must have I'd say for most girls, especially ones with long hair or thick hair like mine, because while out in Spain; Sea water, mixed with pool chlorine and heat equals a whole load of tangles and knots. Not good. But with this little beauty it gets the knots out much quicker and easier than a normal brush. I usually like to use it after I've washed my hair and its all knotty as it makes my hair all lovely and smooth.  

Tangle Teezer- Compact Styler £12.25

My fashion favourite of July has to be the outfit that I wore to Bluewater just before I went on holiday. I was feeling really 50's inspired with this outfit. I wore my Henry Holland green Poodle tie front top with my pink Asos midi skirt. For shoes I wore my white plimsolls from Primark with little white ankle socks from New Look. I love the whole 40s- 50s style, and I loved this outfit. 

 I have been loving Charity Shops this month, and I have been really getting back into everything Vintage, which I am loving. 

If you love Charity Shops too be sure to check out the post I did about my recent Charity Shop gems and tips-

Clutch, broach and necklace all from Charity Shops. 

Everythings Peachy with me at the moment, I have been eating, drinking and smelling everything Peach. While in Spain I found the nicest Capri Sun ever it was Orange and Peach, but sadly I have yet to find it over in the UK, boo. I also love my Peach body spray from The Body Shop, its such a fresh and fruity fragrance, perfect for the Summer months. 

Body Mist- £7.50

 I have been obsessed with Smash season 2 this month. I watched it on TV last year and got the box set for my birthday and I've just been watching all the episodes back to back. I particularly love this season because you have all the 'Hitlist' songs as well as the 'Bombshell' songs. (For people who don't know about Smash its a show about the musical industry and Broadway). Plus Jeremy Jordan, who plays Jimmy, has become my main celebrity crush. 

I watched Forrest Gump with my Mum while we were on holiday and I remembered how funny and heart-warming it is. Tom Hanks is just amazing, as per, but the film is just so funny, and has been my film of the month.   

What would a month be without a little, or a lot, of Disney? I have been mainly listening to Disney songs this month, as well as the songs from Smash. But I have sooo many Disney songs, I've just enjoyed dancing around the kitchen with my Mum to them. Our favs include; 'Just can't wait to be King' from The Lion King, 'I wanna be like you' from The Jungle Book, 'Zero to Hero' from Hercules, and 'A friend like me' from Aladdin. I'm thinking of doing my Top 10 Disney songs soon, just for fun as I saw Trisha Paytas do a video of her favourite Disney songs on her Youtube.  

I have two favourite books this month and they are 'Where Rainbows End' by Cecelia Ahern, and 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows' By J K Rowling. For those of you who don't know I've been reading all the Harry Potter books in order starting from January this year and while I was on holiday I finished reading the last book, and it was sooo good! I love all the Harry Potter books, but this one being the final one was just super good. 'Where Rainbows End' is one of my favourite books of all time, I actually read it a few years ago and thought I'd re-read it while I was away, and I fell in love with it all over again. The book is set out in a series of letters, cards and emails, and is a story about love and friendship, and I would really recommend this book, its funny, fast paced and touching, a must read.  

And finally, my last July favourite has got to be my holiday to Spain, with my Mum, Dad and Brother. 

That's all my favourites from this month, what have you been loving? Let me know down below. 

Cheerio!
