THE LEIBSTER AWARD


Hey!

Just last month I was nominated by the gorgeous Cait from Beyond the Beauty Bag (beyondthebeautybag.blogspot.com) to do the Leibster award. Thanks you so much for that! 

If you didn't know, the Leibster award is a chance for bloggers to help get other small blogs noticed, which I think is such a cute idea!

Rules:
- Acknowledge the person who nominated you.

- Answer the questions given by the person who nominated you.
- Nominate 11 bloggers (if you can) and notify them. 
- Give them 11 questions to answer

My Questions:
1 // Why did you start blogging?
I've always love beauty, fashion and hairstyles, and one random day, over a year a go, I had an idea - I wanted to start a blog.

2// Where do you see yourself in ten years?
I'd love to be married, working at a teen fashion magazine (preferably DOLLY) or at a retail store. I'd also try pursuing a career in science, but I don't really know what options are out there. And obviously I'd love to continue blogging as that is my main passion, but overall I think my main goal is to be happy. :)

3 // High heels or flats?
Depends on the occasion! I love both too much ahah.

4 // What is your favourite thing to do to unwind?
Watching the latest episode of Arrow, reading a book or watching youtube

5 // Read the book or watch the movie?
Both! I'm one of those people who will almost always read the book before the movie, but then definitely go and see the movie afterward! The only time I wouldn't read the book first is if the library doesn't have it available fast enough (I get most of my books from the library as actually buying then is quite expensive as much as I love them).

6 // Which country would you love to visit?
Mykonos, Greece! It looks absolutely beautiful. Ad of course I would love to go back to France and England... I love them so much (and I've been there multiple times).

7// Favourite food?
I can't choose... but I think sushi, hot chips, and chocolate moose - they are AMAZING

8 // What's the one thing you cant live without? 
My phone... how would I contact anyone without it?

9 // If you could have any animal as a pet, what would it be? 
Wow - I have no idea! I've always loved white tigers... maybe a baby one of those.

10 // Favorite makeup brand? 
Maybelline... I love it so much! Most of my make-up is from there ahah.


11 // Winter or Summer?
This is probably the hardest question in the whole universe... I love both! Summer is so awesome because dresses and crop tops and BIKINIS... but you get hot and sweaty and the humidity makes my hair frizz and my make-up falls off. Winter is gorgeous, and the clothes are so cute, but somedays I have no energy to o anything as the weather is so depressing. I can't decide... sorry!

The blogs I nominate are:

DIY INSPO WALL DECOR

Heyy

Today I have a DIY for you all! Yay! ahah. This is my first DIY with many more to come... lets get started!


I created my inspo wall becuase I was tired of what my old magnet board looked like and I wanted some cute inspirational things up on my wall for me to see to make me smile :)

1 // First, I searched the internet for pics of things I love and printed them out.


2 // Cut out the pictures with scissors or a paper trimmer. I used a paper trimmer (it's my mum's actually) because it's easier and quicker than scissors.



3 // Get all your pictures, magnets and mini posters (mine are from DOLLY Magazine) and choose what you are going to put up (if you have limited space). I also included a newspaper article about TOPSHOP and ZARA coming to Perth City.



4 // I couldn't fit everything on, so I'm going to store the extra pics away for another day when I decide to change up my board again :)


And it's finished! I'm very happy with it - so cute!
Here's what mine looks like:



So that's it - thanks for reading! Leave a comment down below what other DIY's you want me to do in the future. :)

WOULD YOU RATHER // BEAUTY EDITION

Hey everyone!

I thought that because you guys don't know my very well and I haven't introduced my self properly I would do this tag that I found. Enjoy!

Q // Would you rather go out with messy hair and nice make-up or nice hair and no make-up?
A // I think nice hair and no make-up, because I don't normally wear much make-up (well unless I'm going out somewhere spesh) and I sometimes have good hair days.

Q // Would you rather leave the house with an obvious foundation line or overdone blush?
A // Overdone blush... and I would use a matte blush so it looks like I've exercised instead of looking like I've had an accident with glitter.

Q // Would you rather have a bad orange-y spray tan or really weird tan lines that can't be covered?
A // I would rather have a bad spray tan that makes me look orange because, really, who says that I have to leave the house?

Q // Would you rather have a bad haircut or bad hair color?
A // With a bad haircut as I could wear a hat or style it up in braids, but a bad hair colour is impossible to hide. I'll go with the bad haircut.

Q //  Would you rather give up using makeup brushes or mascara?
A //  Mascara is my life. So obviously I have to give up make-up brushes (I would actually just use a beauty blender sponge for foundation instead...loopholes!)

Q // Would you rather lose all of your mascaras, lipsticks and lip-glosses or lose all of your palettes and eye-shadows?
A // Even though I said already that I can't live without mascara... I only have one (well you only really need one at a time - saves money and space). But I have 100 palettes and eye shadows so no way in the world would I want to loose them. And well yeah I love my lippies but I gotta keep my eye shadows.

Q // Would you rather chop off all your hair or never be able to cut it again? 
A // Let me tell you this now... I, will never, ever, ever chop off all my hair. Ever. I have to chose never cutting my hair again - and I would fix those pesky split ends with lots of hair masks and serums.

Q // Would you rather have a coral cheek or a pink cheek?
A // Not that I wear blush (I am naturally very pink-cheeked...unfortunately), but if I did, I would go with pink, not coral. I like to leave the coral trend to the lips.

Q // If you had $1000 to spend, would you rather buy clothes or make-up? 
A // CLOTHES CLOTHES CLOTHES CLOTHES CLOTHES CLOTHES CLOTHES CLOTHES....
 I think you get the picture...ahaha. In all seriousness, I already have enough make-up, but, no girl EVER has enough clothes.

Q // Would you rather apply lipstick as eyeliner, or eyeliner as lipstick? 
A // Eyeliner as lipstick... because it would be like using lip-liner/pencil thing (same texture i mean). And you can get eyeliner in all sorts of colours. And seriously ewwwwwww gross imagine putting lipstick on your eyelid. Never.

Q // Would you rather only use one eyeshadow color or one lip color for the rest of your life? 
A // One eyeshadow colour (golden-brown) because I NEED my red, coral, nude and pink lips.

Q // Would you rather wear winter clothes in summer or summer clothes in winter?
A // What kind of question is this? ahaha. I think I would wear summer clothes all year round because it would be too hot in summer with winter clothes on.

Q // Would you rather have dark nails or bright nails all year round?
A // I don't really wear dark nails or bright nails, just neutrals. But I'll go with bright nails as they are nice and cheery.

Q // Would you rather give up your favorite lip product or your favorite eye product?
A // Well... I think lip product as I love my mascara way too much to give it up. I don't even think I have a favorite lip product (ooops).

Q // Would you rather only be able to wear your hair in a ponytail or a messy bun? 
A // My hair is quite curly so it's really hard to get it in or out of a bun but ponytails make my hair look really good so I'll choose ponytail.

Q // Would your rather never be able to paint your nails again or never use lip-gloss?
A // I think never use lip-gloss because I quite like painting my nails and I have enough other lip products that work just as good - or even better - than lip gloss.

Q // Would you rather shave your eyebrows and have none at all or sharpie them in everyday? 
A // Take one moment to imagine how weird we would look without eyebrows. I can't even. I'd rather sharpie them in, and I would use a brown fine liner sharpie so it would replicate an eyebrow pen or eyebrow gel (oooo sneaky).

AND FINALLY...

Q // Would you rather live without makeup or without nail polish?
A // Definitely nail polish... make-up is amazing and I love it way to much. And nail polish always chips so easily (I'd get stick on nails instead haha).

Wow - that was a lot of questions! I hope you learnt more about me from this fun tag, and comment below if you enjoyed this style of post - I know I definitely did!

TTYL,

Bridget xx

P.S. I've just realised after reading and editing this post that instead of properly answering most of the questions I have just found a way around them... oopps. haha
