There are some rules.

1. Answer the ten questions you have been sent and thank the blogger.
2. Make up ten of your own questions.
3. Nominate other people to do it.
4. Put the logo somewhere in you blog.

So here are the questions

1. How has blogging had an effect on your life ?
Blogging has has an impact on my life. Its made me realise that what people think don't matter and to do what ever makes you happy. It's also made me be more prepared for stuff like projects I would t leave a blog post till the last minute so why leave a project.

2. What inspired you to start blogging ?
What inspired me to start blogging was I've always wanted to have a YouTube but I don't have enough confidence I still wanted to share and inspire others so I though why not start a blog instead.

3. Name five hobbies you would gladly do for the rest of you life ?
Art- Art has always been a big part of my life since I was young.
Music- Same with art I've loved playing guitar since I was about eight.
Design- I've loved designing stuff since I was eleven and got a top model book.
Makeup- I just love doing my makeup.
Writing- I don't mean writing that essay for English I mean writing stuff like this.

4. What are your favourite things about yourself ?
This is a hard one to answer I mean how do you answer it. I would say that I always have that smile
on my face. It's just my natural facial expression and my laugh even though it's weird I would rather have a weird laugh.

5. If you were in a time machine where would you do past or future ?
I would love to go to the future. We already have evidence of what life was like in the past so I would love to go to future to see how people's lives turned out and see what stuff will be around.

6. If you could have lunch with anyone alive or dead what would you ask them ?
I would have lunch with sprinkle of glitter because she's such nice and genuine person and I would ask her what's it like being a youtuber having people who look up to and want to be like you.


7. Where would you love to live one day ?
I've always wanted to stay where I grew up for my whole life. I'd like to live in London for w year but then move back because I love where I live.

Fashion design and a  stylist

To have my blog be successful.

Instagram because you can share photos of your life and what you do.

Summer sleepover - activities / with lexi the newt

Hey guys how are yous doing. So this week is me and lexis last post in out summer sleepover series and its activities. I just want to say sorry again this isn't the best I had my summer exams this week and Friday I finished for summer and I had Friends round so it's been a busy week.

Sleepovers are so much fun and There so much stuff you can do.

One of the first things you can do is paint eachothers nails My nails are really short so there's not much I can do with them. If you one of the lucky ones that has really nice long nails you can try nail art and so really nice summer designs.

You could try doing some flowers, chevron or paint each nail a different colour. Some nail varnishes I'm loving are SOSU by Suzanne Jackson in the colour coral reef and Kate Moss Rimmel.


Another thing you can do is prank calls. If you do this make sure it's to someone you know and to some random number because they can call the guards on you so be careful.


You can also make food so go to last weeks to see that where I told you how to make rainbow cupcakes.


Now if your anything like me who is the friend who sings and dances all the time but isn't very good then put on a random playlist and juts sing at the top of lungs which I what I do. Here's some of favourite sing a long songs.
Basically any upbeat Bruno Mars song
Classic - MKTO
Wait on me - Rixton
Dance with me tonight and Trouble maker - Olly Murs
All about that bass - Meghan Tranior
Any Whitney Houstan or Beyoncé song
And search on YouTube Henry Gallegher Lightning it'd  a really catchy cute song.


Also you can make blanket forts and have lots and lots of pillows or just spread a load of blankets on the floor and relax.


You can play truth or dare. Just have some fun with it but make sure not to force anybody to do anything that they don't want to do.



Sorry for this isn't my best but I've been studying and had exams. But I'll have loads for you in the coming weeks.

Love you all Lauren xx

Summer sleepover decorations and recipes r / with Lexi the newt

Hey guys so this week me and Lexi are doing another blog post in  our series. This week is recipes and decorations Now food is very important at a sleepover. Before I start I would of actually made these this week to show you but i have exams this week and Friday was my last proper day before exams so all my end of year projects are due.


Now I have have made these loads of times and there amazing. And there rainbow cupcakes basically they taste the exact same but are rainbow.

So basically just follow a cupcake recipe. And then the fun part. You spilt the mixture into 4 or 5 np bowls and then add the different food colourings to each one. Mix them in and then go round and add each colour into each case. It's  helps if you go round and do all the red first then the next colour your doing. These turn out amazing a with some white icing they look so nice.


Next thing you could make it cake or brownie in a mug. This isn't the nicest sometimes but it looks so cute. First You need your ingredients

4 tablespoons of flour
4 tablespoons of sugar
4 tablespoons of unsweetened baking soda.
2 tablespoons of water
A few drops of vanilla essence

Now you mix it all together in a mug and then put it in the microwave for 3-4 minutes.


Another thing is mocktail. For this anything goes. You can add some juices and a bit of fruit but here's a recipe I though looked really nice.

A couple more things your could make are

Chocolate popcorn, just melt the chocolate and pour it over the popcorn.
Fruit kebabs, use really colourful summer fruits to make them look real cute.
Smoothies, use whatever Fruits you like in a smoothie.



Now onto decorations,
Now if your going to be eating outside, it would be could to have little Chinese lantern thingys if you get what I'm a mean by that. I'm sure penny's would do them. And you get little cute candle holders and put fake candles in them that way you could hang them around the garden and no worry about them going on fire. Also I think cute bunting would be real cute.


 One thing you could do is make DIY bunting. All you need is fabric, something to attach the shapes onto, some glue that is strong enough to make it stick and scissors. The first thing you do is cut out the shapes you want you can lightly draw them onto the fabric first if you want. Then you turn them over and add glue. Then lastly all you do is stick the string on and leave it to dry and your done.


When your inside I think the same things would be real cute especially when it's dark and the little lights are all Around the room. Also your gonna need lots of pillows and blankets. It will make it look
more relaxed and comfy.


Sorry this isn't my best but I've been studying and finishing end of year projects since next week I'm off for summer but then I'll be able to write blog posts more often for you.

Lots of love Lauren xx

Summer sleepover - essentials and beauty / with Lexi the newt

Hey guys so for the next couple of weeks me and another amazing blogger will be doing a series together. It's for a summer sleepover. Since im finished for summer in two weeks and it's summer.

First thing you need is pyjamas, for a sleepover I like be really cute pyjamas but what you like to wear. Make sure if your staying at someone else's to bring clothes for the next day.

If your staying at some else's make sure you bring a tooth brush, makeup for the next day, money If you have plans for the next day, perfume, deodorant, Chargers for your phone, laptop, iPad etc.

Well I think we can all agree one  essential we all need food. Just go to somewhere like tescos and buy a whole load of crisps and sweets and a load of chocolate. Next week will be doing recipes so I'll have loads of ideas


Next you need music. If I'm with my friends will most likely listen to the randomest songs. So turn on a random playlist on spotify they have a load of playlists already made so just turn one on and have fun


One of things you also definitely need is some movies. Some you could watch our which I love our twilight, mean girls, the D.U.F.F, Little miss sunshine, footloose, Grease, Hairspray, you could a horror movie,13 going on 30 and if you are staying up the whole night and have enough time you could watch a whole series of movies . These our just some and remember to watch a movie everyone will enjoy.


Other essential you might need are blankets, pillows, a phone or laptop. You can also have fairy lights and little lanterns round the room but decorations are coming next week so I'll do more on that then.


Next is beauty, one thing I like to do is make homemade facemasks. This is much then buying one because you know what's going in it.

If you have dry skin try this one


Ingredients

1/2 cup of honey
1/2 cup of oatmeal
Tablespoon of honey
Water


Cut up the banana and mash it with a fork.
Mix in the oatmeal
Then mix in the honey well
Then add the water and mix until it has a creamy texture.


If you have oily skin try this one











1tsp of lemon juice
2 egg whites
Strawberries

First remove the stem then mash up and just add everything else in.




If you and friends have sleepovers often then buy some drugstore makeup and so blindfolded makeovers your not runing your makeup.


And you can also so makeovers so get everyone's makeup and do it for each other.

It depends on what your doing the next day on how to plan your makeup, if your doing an activity with lots of movement then a natural look that won't get messed up, but if your doing something like shopping then you can do your everyday look.

For a natural look most days I just use these it's quick and easy aswell.

That's all I have for yous this's week but make sure you go and read lexis blog I'll link it below.

Beauty ?

What is the real definition of beauty ? I always think this. Is it having a perfect smile, perfect skin, being stick thin. Or is it having a nice personality, a smile and being a nice person. We all are perfect even if we'd don't realize it. So that gap you have inbetween your two front teeth, your thousand of freackles, the dimple you think are horrible, are all beautiful. Because of society today we all think we aren't perfect but you are. That model in the magazine the editor has gone and edited the "flaws".
I've always thought I wasn't beautiful but anytime I think this I remember there's no definition of beauty and everybody is beautiful in there when way. I've always though that I had small eyes, a really bad skin tone, just plain old brown hair. But there all still beautiful and everybody has things they like and don't like but as tumbkr told me "your so use to your features that what you think are flaws is beauty to a stranger" I know this was a bit all over the place but I just wanted to say somethimg about this. I love you all and remember your beautiful don't let anyone tell you your not.

Love all my lovelies Lauren xx
