Steal Kendall Jenner's Street Style!





Hi Guys!


I LOVE the Kardashians and I am going to be doing some posts on each of the Kardashians and their make-up/style today I decided to start with Kendall!
I love her casual street style looks and I'm going to try and re-create it on a budget!

STEP ONE

I'm going to start with the white tank top! You can get a cheap one from maybe Target, Primark or somewhere else that doesn't cost too much.
COST: £5.00




STEP TWO

Now I'm going to move on to the jumper/cardigan! I found this one from
New Look which is reallllly similar in length and colour to Kendall's!

COST:  £9.99









STEP THREE

Kendall has slightly rolled her jeans to create the cutoff jean look, so take a pair of your favourite ankle jeans and roll it up once. I found these in Topshop and although they are a little expensive they are totally worth it because they will last you ages.

COST: £40.00






STEP FOUR


Shoes! One of my favourite parts of putting an outfit together!
These are from Shoe Zone, and if you're not from the UK you probably wont be able to find a pair exactly like these, but you might be able to
find a good dupe.

COST: £9.99


             And thats it! I hope you can re-create her look with my help and that you enjoyed this post!
                                                                  See you on Thursday!

Day Four: Elephants and Laying by the pool

Hey!
Right now im out by the pool chilling out. But i wanted to tell you guys what I got up to today!
We got up at 6.20 and got dressed. Here in the mornings it's really cold and in the nights it's not cold, it's just kind of cool really. Lol.
Anyways so we got up got dressed and went to Light Breakfast. It's called light breakfast because you only have a cup of hot chocolate and a healthy energy bar. Then you go on Safari at 7.00 and come back at 9.00 an have proper breakfast. However today we got back at 12.00 and had breakfast and lunch in one.
When we went into the Game reserve And we saw a herd of elephants, rhinos and some buffaloes who were really sweet.
But last night we saw a leopard who had such stunning skin and was up in a tree with a impala he killed. Then a lion came, (who was really old and had a lot of cuts on him which was really sad :(. ) then it was so awesome because the leopard and the lion were growling at each other! It was so funny!
It was an awesome night.
Now I am boiling hot so im going to go get in the pool! Byeee!

Day three: Airports and Annoyance

Hi guys,
Right now I'm in the airport waiting to get on the plane where we actually get to the bush (safari - animal reserve).
We have an hour until we can get on the plane. It's two hours long, then we have to get a small plane to Singita which is only 10 minuets long. Then we have a 40 min drive to the Lodge.
Right now I'm really excited but im also bored because waiting around in the airport isn't exactly the most fun thing to do!
Following on from my blog post yesterday, (go check it out now) we were walking by the docks to go to the market and there was a platform, it was made from wood and above it it said "Seal platform" I didn't even notice until I looked real close but there was a massive seal just chilling out! He wasn't like your typical seal though. He was really chunky and he was super cute. He was sleeping and it took all my willpower not to go and give him a big ol' hug! Ha!
Anyways, now I am on the plane. About an hour has passed, so one more hour until we arrive. I will attach some photos to the end of this post :D I am in front of a really irritating man who keeps frickin kicking my seat!! So as a punishment to him, I leaned my sear aaaalllll the way down. Mwah ha ha sweet revenge, And I'm behind a really annoying person who keeps moving his chair up and then down then up an down. I just wanna shout at him "KEEP YOUR MOTERHUGGING SEAT UP!!!" but of course. Im not going to do that. LOL.
Now I'm going to go and try get back to sleep for the next half hour. Talk to you when I arrive! Oh and I may or may not have Internet but if this post is up by tomorrow then i do.
Thanks for reading!
Love from,
Amelia

Day two: Animals!!

Hellooo!
As I type this i'm in the Mini Bus on my way to Lunch!
Today was awesome because we got to see some wild animals up close!! We saw Ostriches, monkeys and whales! We were going on a tour around cape town and we were cruising around on the mini bus when we stopped at the beach to see if we could spot some whales! And we did! There was a mum and a baby which was really cute. Then we made our way on to LongBeach , when we went to park in the parking area, my mum spotted a mum, a dad, and a tiiiiiny baby baboon!! The baby was the best though because literally she was smaller than my palm!
Anyways,
I am off to have lunch and because I don't have Internet I will post this when I get to the hotel room which might not be until much later.
Love, Amelia xox

Just a little update!

                                                                       Hello everybody!

If you tend to read my blog quite a lot you will know that my blog has changed a lot since I first started writing this blog in April (the 13th). I had previously had a blog called Pinkalicious Essex Doll, but the name was just horrendous and I had been thinking of starting a new blog and then when I was on Holiday, I finally did it. I think I deleted my old blog but I'm glad I did.

Anyway, I want to make more blog more proffesional looking and my old "logo"/header just wasn't doing it for me anymore. So I changed it so it has more lighter pastel colours to make it look soft and more subtle.

(To the left, my first blog title and then my second one.)

All this week, I have been doing lots of trips with my school, we went to
London Dungeon, Camden Town, Tower bridge etc. It has been a really fun week and I've been really busy so apologies for the lack of posts, and I also hadnt really felt like spending time writing a blog post (Yes, it does take time!) instead, I would be curled up in a ball in bed watching telly haha!

Next week I break up from school (Friday) which I am SUPER excited about. We get 6 weeks of holiday which is fabulous, fro a week we are going away, so maybe I will vlog?? I dont know if we will have internet though which sucks but I will be sure to let you know!

Oh and dont forget to check my "chatty blog" which is....

                                                     http://lovefromameliaxox.blogspot.co.uk/

                           Thats all for now, I just wanted to give you a little update on life and stuff!

Hello! 

I'm starting a new series called HOTW which stands for HIGHLIGHT OF THE WEEK! And I will be doing them weekly.
   This week my highlight has been neuro      drinks! My mum has been buying me one for my lunch at school and I am in love with them! They are stuffed with deliciousness and a massive plus is that they are actually super   healthy and can boost your mood without putting bad stuff into your body. AMAZEBALLS!? I know. 
My favourite is the Neuro bliss and Neuro sun! 
Whats yours??

Quick Fix Makeup





If you're anything like me, I only go bare-faced if I really have to. You might think I'm over-reacting because I dont have majorly bad skin or anything, I just look reeallly young if I dont have any slap on, I also think Im sort of used to having makeup on so I feel "naked" without it.
This is a routine I do, when I need to pop out to the shops to pick up something, its super easy, quick and simple and takes me 5 minuits tops.

Here are the steps:

1. Take a concealer and put 5 dots of it in a "V" shape, then take your ring finger and blend. My concealer is from the natural collection.
2. Take a neutral eye-shadow (Im using a champagne colored one) and take a eyeshadow brush and then lightly dust it over your eyelid.
3.Then curl your eyelashes 5 times or so. This step will make your eyelashes flip up, making your eyes look more awake and less closed.
4. This step is not neccesary but if you feel like you want to, then apply your favourite mascara, Im using maybellines Great lash.

Whats in my school bag?!

Last night I was lookign at some many peoples "Whats in my bag" blog posts and videos and I was inspired to do a blog post on "Whats in MY School Bag!!"

1. Pencil Case - I got this from Primark and its originally a Make-up Bag.
2. My Bobble Water Bottle! As its summer I get thirsty quite quickly so I always have to have water on hand.
3. My Planner! Unfortunatly the school gives us a planner every year so we have to use the one they give us and I cant choose a cute one to use.
4. These are my OMG mints from Claires!
5. The weather in England is SO unpredictable so you always have to have an umbrella in case of rain.
6. Calculator! I am SO bad a maths so I use it in Maths, Science and Geography or even just for random sums.

                                                                    Hope enjoyed!


Natural!!!

Helloo Everybody!
Have no fear! Im back to my usual routine of blogging 5 times a week! 

I use quite a lot of natural products on my face/body and here are a few of my favourites!


              Bio Oil




I have quite a few blemish scars on my face, especially on my nose, and when I went to Sainsbury's I saw the Bio-Oil on sale, I have heard lots of great things about it and thought I should try it out. Oh my god. Ok, this has faded nearly all the marks on my face and even though its an oil it absorbs SUPER fast. Maybe I'll do a review on it??? Let me know!




Sea Salt

Yes you heard that right! Whenever I have quite dry skin (often) I get some chunky sea salt (that sounds a bit dirty if you say it in a "Sexy" voice haha!)  and mash it up a bit and rub it on my face, and VOILA you'll have skin as smooth as a babys bum.

Steam

Sometimes, if Im feeling fancy I boil up and bowl on steaming hot water and put your face over it and it cleans your face.

Thats it really!
I hope you liked the post!
