JULY FAVOURITES

My Violet Voss palette has been one that I can't put down! It is definitely worth the hype, the shadows are very pigmented and easy to blend. I've posted a review if you'd like to know more about the palette and my thoughts here.

I've been talking about this a lot, but Stradivarius have an amazing sale going on so I got some bits. It's one of my favourite stores so there's not really ever a time I'm not browsing on there. One of my favourite purchases are these trainers, they fit perfectly and I love the colour of them! They even have some gold metallic detail on the back. If you'd like to see what else I got from the sale, I have a haul.

I've recently got back into art and the enjoyment of it. It's been a while since I've actually completely finished something, I tend to just do sketches etc. This watercolour pad and set of pencils have been a great way for me to start watercolours again (both from The Range).

Spider-Man: Homecoming is amazing! I love Spider-Man so it's not really a surprise, but I love the differences in this film. I wasn't expecting to like this one as much as I do! Tom Holland portrays the character so well, but at the same time creates a new take on Peter Parker which is amazing.

It's not out yet, it's not even a movie but I couldn't not mention it! The 'Stranger Things 2' trailer has got me so excited! The trailer is full of my favourites, Michael Jackson's Thriller, 80's vibes, Ghostbusters and Halloween! I can't wait to see more of Will and the Upside Down. I feel like the next season will go much further and have a lot more dark turns. Stranger Things has such great potential, I really enjoyed the first season but found myself waiting for something exciting/shocking to happen which never really came until the very end.

Bunting. It's a random one but after finding black bunting in The Range for £1, I got all inspired to do some DIYS and find one for my room. Which I did! Stradivarius had a great sale and I managed to get hold of some tropical bunting for £1.99.

Every two months I create a playlist and add songs that I've been listening to, they're normally new releases too. My July/August playlist is up now and I can't stop playing Bad Liar by Selena Gomez! I love the rhythm and the music video is really cool! 

I've also been listening to new albums released by Harry Styles, Haim, Paramore and Lana Del Rey! My favourites from Paramore are Hard Times, Rose-Colored Boy, Told You So and Caught In The Middle. I've attempted to choose some favourites by Lana Del Rey which are Love, Groupie Love, In My Feelings, Coachella and Get Free... but I'm not great at choosing one favourite as I just love these albums so much! Have a listen below!




What are your July favourites?
