Teatime On A Budget


A lot of people my age have gone to university. It's definitely a time filled with fun, making memories but also a time filled with no parents to look after you. These past two weeks me and my sisters has been away from home looking after our friends puppies (as above) and were in charge of foodly duties and shopping- scary *breathes deeply*. One meal we made was very cheap and very much surprised our lack of culinary skills. CURRY!
I'm not fussed on curry but i loved it so i'm sure you will two. We simply cut aubergine and sweet potatoe into similar size chunks and roasted with a tea spoon of oil until soft (medium-high heat  for about half an hour.) We then microwaved some Uncle Ben's wholegrain rice and heated Sharwood's jarred korma sauce in a pan and stirred in the roasties! SERVE AND YOUR DONE. SO QUICK. 
After being healthy we then ruined it with the delicious pots as pictured above from Waitrose. All 100% natural. I chose sticky toffee pudding, Harry Potters favourite pudding ♡

Septemper Makeup Look

This month I've really been embracing the change of weather, and of course makeup to follow suit.
I'm not a person to wear make up every day but when I do I try not to wear the same thing every day. I don't spend much on make up either so I just make the most of whatever's rattling in my box.

My favourite look is one with eyeliner with I haven't worn in a while and won't wear if im doing natural makeup, teamed with a berry lip.

To start I use toner to remove any dirt, and conceal using the Collection concealer in 001 and cover using Rimmel Better Skin Foundation.  I have quite rosey yet pale skin so I use bronzer to contour and ad warmth. Then fill in my eyebrows using the Collection Brow kit (2.99- bargain!) And then use the light shade over my lids. Eyeliner is next followed by lipstick (alway teamed with a neutral eye) in Revlon's Black Cherry. I've always struggled putting dark colours on so I learned to use a firm thin brush and the lipstick to line my lips and fill inwards with he brush too. Then put on the stick as normal. I hope you like the look!

Ps. I thought I'd try out a new syle for me with this High neck jumper from newlook. I'm telling myself if you like it wear it!!!

Take a step back.

Life can sometimes be a little hectic and can get on top of you. Sometimes you just need to take a moment and not stress about the little things.  For me unsuccessfully searching for jobs was getting me down. Knowing this I decided to give it all to God. I know that he has my life in His hands and we are not designed to worry. Wether you have a relationship with God or not, know that you are loved and that worrying about the little details will not change thay they may or may not happen. So does it really make sense to over think things?

Appreciate life's little beauties, the people around you (who need you as much as you need them) and be amazed by faultless creation. Most importantly love who you are ♡
