New Hair & Outfit Of The Day!

 Soo... Things have changed quite a bit in the last month! I now have brown hair(eeek) 

If you know me then you'll know I've been wanting to go back brown for ages and last month I finally went ahead and did it!

After hours in the hairdressers it finally happened! 

NO MORE BLONDE ;'(

The hairdresser didn't want to take it too dark in case i freaked out and wanted to go back blonde but I am going to go a little bit darker in the next few weeks.

I still not used to it  yet but i think it will grow on me.

On the plus side I'll be £20 richer every month not having to dye my roots! YAYAYA!

What I Got For Christmas/Recent Buys!

I thought I'd combine my Christmas gifts with a few recent purchases as i was kindly given some money for Christmas. So here's my recent buys/Christmas gifts/sales haul! Hope you enjoy and as always no bragging intended,I just love reading these posts so thought I'd do one this year!

My gift from my parents this year was a pair of Dr Martens! EEEEEEE I can't even begin to explain how excited i am to finally have a pair! They were bought from a shop in my town called Sole Trader I'm not sure if there's many around but it's worth checking out if you want a pair of DM's as they're a little bit cheaper than the Dr martens website.

Introducing Depop- An App for selling and buying clothes/shoes!

Before last week i had never heard of 'Depop' until a fellow youtuber mentioned it in one of her recent hauls! Instantly i downloaded it and I've been addicted to it ever since.So i thought I'd give you guys the heads up on it if you haven't heard about it yet!

The concept of the app is a platform where you can buy/sell and swap items.Much like ebay,but it doesn't involve bidding which makes the whole process a lot quicker! 
The payments are sent through paypal. I love it! 

I highly recommend downloading it (It's free) and trying it out for yourself! 

My user name on there is Aimee Leila and if you want to have a nosey at what I'm selling I've screenshot my depop page. 

Let me know if you make an account and I'll follow you!

DIY-Citrus Sugar Scrub!

(Both pictures are from Google)

Now that the Sun is peaking out from behind the clouds and scaring the rain away,your legs are all of a sudden are taken out of their protective cocoon of tights and trousers and thrust into daylight,squinting and looking, well, a little unloved.But this simple homemade citrus sugar scrub will buff away the winter residue and return your body to its full, moisturised glory.

Ingredients:

1 Small organic lemon

1 Small organic lime 

1 cup of organic pure cane sugar

1/2 cup organic coconut oil 

1 Teaspoon organic peppermint essential oil/extract

You can also add extras like mint leaves or lemon/lime peel.

How to make:

Mix the coconut oil,the peppermint oil and juice from both the lemon and lime.

Then pour in the sugar and mix well.

If you want to add your extras, you can do this now.

Transfer the mixture to a clean,dry container or an old jam jar and you're ready to scrub!

Exfoliating is great for polishing off dead skin cells and encouraging new ones to take their place.The oil in the recipe adds a beautiful moistening quality-essential after any exfoliating session!

Don't exfoliate more than once or twice a week as you can damage your skin.And don't do it after shaving as you will be left with red lumps and bumps and not the smooth silkiness you were after!

For more natural beauty treatments you can check out Pampered Perfection

Thank you to http://www.ecomarket.com/ for the recipe for this scrub!

I tried it out just before my holiday and it really does do wonders,my legs feel great!

Let me know if you try out this recipe!

Have a wonderful day!

One Dress,Two Looks(Day To Night)

                                                                      Look One:Day 

This is an outfit you could easily wear to college/work minus the sandals which you could swap for something smarter.The dress is from new look and was around £16.

The blazer is one of my favs! and is from matalan.

The sandals are from primark.

Look Two:Night 

The same dress which I've paired with a these bright wedges from select.They add a pop of colour to the black and white dress!

               

Which look do you prefer?

Right now as your reading this i'm sat on a plane headed to Greece for my holibobs,I've scheduled 4 posts whilst I'm away so look out for them!
