How To Make The Most Of Your Summer ♥ | Blondie Blog

Hi guys! If you are like me and you like in the UK, then the chances are you have around 7 weeks left of school. I get really scared that I am going to waste my whole summer watching YouTube and going on my laptop. So here are a few tips to make your summer really worthwhile!

1) Make an ice cream waffle sandwich
2) Go berry picking
3) Freeze fun things into your ice cubes (like haribos!)
4) Have a picnic
5) Camp in your back garden with some friends
6) Make some ice cold chocolate milkshakes
7) Make ice lollies that are totally instagramable!
8) Read and chill
9) Take tonnes of photos
10) By fashion magazines or look at celebrities style and recreate their looks for less
11) Clean your room
12) Bake cupcakes
13) Make a scrapbook and look through old ones
14) Go to the cinema
15) Go window shopping
16) Write songs
17) Have a sleepover
18) Decorate your room
19)Have a bubble bath
20) Go to a swimming pool
21) Have a water fight
22) Have a pamper night
23) Go on a long bike ride
24) Have a movie marathon
25) Watch YouTube

♥ Half Term! ♥

Hi Guys!!  Today I just want to talk to you about how quickly this has gone! It has been over 110 days since I started this blog and it's amazing how far I have come. On my second month I got 66 views, and now I have 200 odd views per month! It is amazing how far I have come!

It is so close to summer now and I can tell you now that I am so freaking excited! So excited in fact, that I have decided to make a whole list of things that will make my summer better! Next week this blog post will be up and it will be called something along the lines of ' How to Make Your Summer Amazing'. I spent so much time watching vlogs, reading through articles and actually thinking of things that will make your summer brill. And the cool thing is, is that you can do it for next to no money and it is really fun to do. Well all of them are.

I sort of wanted this blog to be fairly chatty, because that is how I originally started my blog, as if it were my best friend.To be honest guys, you lot are probably my best friends because you read this random crap that I put on the internet and that makes me so happy!

I remember the first time that someone commented on my blog and I freaked out so much! None of my friends knew because I hadn't told them and my mum and dad don't know. There is only one person in world who knows and I ♥ her!


Thank you for listening or reading to me babble on! I love you guys sosososososososo much!

DIY Gift Idea ~ Present In A Jar

Hi guys! The other day it was my friends birthday, and I wanted to put more thought into it, instead of just getting her some money or a plain gift. So in this blog post I will be showing you how to make a thoughtful and tumblr inspired gift.  Just to let you know these photos aren't my own as I have nothing to take them on. Also, I only put these things in because they are what my friend likes, but if you want to add your own style then definitely make sure you do. I hope you enjoy!

What You Need:

1) A Jar (I decided to use one with a straw because she wanted one)






2) A Bath Bomb
3) Some nail polishes

4) Nail foil


Once you have everything you want then just shove it in. But the thing about this present is that you have to find out what they want, and put thought into finding the stuff they like. So if they were really into vintage things you could get them an old necklace. Or if they liked make-up, get them a lip gloss.


Thanks for reading!

Rimmel London - 60 Second Dry Nail Polish Review

Hi guys! Today I am going to be talking about the Rita Ora 60 second nail polish by Rimmel London. I am such an impatient person and I can't stand waiting 10 minutes for my nails to dry, so I am so excited to tell you all about it. You probably understand my pain of thinking your nails are dry and then messing them up the next minute, so this is definitely something worth looking into to see whether it is actually worth it.


Design

This product is really pretty to look at and I love the packaging, With nail polishes I think it is really hard to go wrong, but this caught my eye in the shop. With the flowers at the top, it adds a little decorative detail, and I love the fact that the center of the flower co-ordinates with the actual colour of the polish. All of it's colours are so pretty, and the shades are very spring like. When you screw off the lid, you can see that the applicator (very precise word) is very wide. I find that much easier, because I can do it in one sweep!

How I use It

I just apply one coat, let it dry then apply the next coat. I prefer doing this one hand at a time, because now I have more time it is easier to be precise.

Results

The results aren't as good as it says. I would actually say that it takes around 3 mins to dry, but for me that is still amazing. It wouldn't look as good with one coat so I do feel like two coats work better.It is such a glossy finish, and if you are anything like me then this is a must have!

Thank you so much for reading!

April Faves

Hi guys! Today I am going to be writing about the things that I have really enjoyed in April! I hope you like it, and if you do leave me a comment :)  Don't forget to follow me on all my social media accounts, so you can keep up to date with all the things that are happening right now!  

Makeup

EOS - Strawberry Sorbet

I love EOS lip balms. They are so gorgeous and this one smells so good. I have only just got mine, but I have already used it so much. They are quite on the pricey side, but it is definitely worth it. EOS are so good, they are so hydrating and look really cool.

Hair

Batiste Dry Shampoo

Of course I had to put this in here! If you would like my full opinion on this then make sure you check out my last blog post!

Movie

The DUFF

This is a hilarious film about a Designated Ugly Fat Friend and how she gets over her name tag.If you want to laugh and have a great time then defo go and check this out at the cinema! It is all about having crushes and not being popular, so it is a very relatable film.

Blog

The other day I stumbled onto the blog of Hello October, and I can honestly say her writing and pictures transfix me! She is gorgeous and you should go and give some of her posts a read if you haven't already!

Thank you for reading!!!!
