My blogging inspiration - Betsy Blue English | Blogtober day 4

Heya!

I'm back again and today I'm going to be telling you all about who inspires me when I'm blogging. My main inspiration has to be no other than Betsy Blue English, writer and owner of fashion and lifestyle blog "its Thursday tho". (itsthursdaytho.com)

I love Betsy because not only does she love fashion and have amazing style! She is also an amazing writer and the way she writes gives you the impression that she's been doing it for way longer than she has! And quite honestly, she's way better than the likes of Zoella and Sprinkle of Glitter and deserves a lot more recognition than she already has and needs so many more reads!

The part about her that really inspires me is that she is true top herself and lets her personality shine through her blog. She also openly tells you where her clothes are from instead of pretending that she has forgotten.

As well as all of that she is absolutely gorgeous. She's a stunner! No wonder she has a boyfriend!

My trip to Venezia | Blogtober Day 3

Heya again!

I'm back again, and as promised, I am giving you a post all about my little holiday to Venice. (I promised this way back in my "My Summer" post) It all went so quickly and I would happily go there again for a lot longer! (Maybe two weeks next time?) It is one of my favourite places of all time to visit, and not just because of the food!

I flew out on the 28th August and my flight got delayed an hour due to an air show happening in Venice, ANNOYING! Anyway, I got there in the end and headed towards the lido, which was where I was staying. I stayed in an apartment close to the vaporetto stop. (the vaporetto is the water bus for anyone who doesn't know) It overlooked the water and was absolutely stunning. I loved watching the sunsets every evening before going out for dinner. Some of you may have noticed a picture or two of the sunset happened to pop up on my instagram while I was there. (insta: Abbey_Mariexx) The other great thing about the apartment was that it had an air con. That was also amazing and made it so much nicer to sleep at night.

On my first full day in Venice I went to the beach on the lido. (yes, Venice has a beach people!) The sand was boiling and would quite literally burn your feet! However, the sea was nice and cool but wasn't too cold. I loved spending time on the beach. I also went back on the last day and had enjoyed a few dinks at the bars around the beach which was very nice.

I also went into central Venice as well. I absolutely loved walking over the Rialto bridge, browsing the shops and eating that famous gelato! It was all so beautiful, especially with all the canals and water surrounding the island. It was also heaving with people. Central Venice is so busy and crowded with people yet so beautiful at the same time!

While I was there I also went hopping around all the Venetian islands. I visited Murano, the glass island and Burano, the lace island. I posted a pictured of Burano on insta and I thought it was absolutely gorgeous. However, I wasn't so interested in the lace. I loved the glass though on Murano. I bought a pair of glass red rose earrings in Murano which I absolutely adore! Murano was a beautiful island as well.

I had such a great time in Venice and loved every single second of it! The weather was gorgeous and the islands were so beautiful! As I have said I would happily go back there and definitely go there for longer! I hope you have enjoyed reading this post as much I enjoyed writing it and experiencing it. I also hope you are enjoying Blogtober. If you have any requests let me know on twitter or in the comments on instagram.  See you next time!

Fall favourites | Blogtober Day 2

Hi!

I have to admit, I've been so bad at updating this blog recently. Please forgive me! However, blogtober is the perfect time to correct this. My first post for blogtober will be a fall favourites, as it is now fall. (wow! where did summer go?)  My favourites will cover a range of things from beauty, lifestyle and fashion. Some of my favourties will be things I am already loving and some are things I am sooo looking forward to!

My first favourite is from beauty and is the Oh My Gloss lipstick in snog by Rimmel London. I love this product for evenings especially, but can work for all times of day. The pigment of it is so strong and smells amazing! (For me, it does!) The colour is perfect for all occasions. Its like a red lip, but not quite as bold, so therefore easier to wear.

My next favourite is from lifestyle and is a well - known thing across the globe. Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte. I only tried this 2 weeks ago and instantly fell in love. I have a big sweet tooth and this kind of drink is just perfect for me! I don't want it to go! It makes me love autumn even more than I already do!

Another thing I am absolutely buzzing for is wearing beanies! I love beanies and I have a few. My most recent one I bought was from Primark for £3. I've also seen one in River Island I love which is £15.

 I am also loving the Revlon colourstay eyeshadow palette in moonlit. I think I may have mentioned this in a previous post and it is a really nice, brown shade. Personally, I think brown is really underrated as an eyeshadow colour. It's my favourite colour to wear!

In the fashion world I am loving fluffy winter boots. Yes, I know its not winter quite yet but these can also be worn in fall. I got mine in Next a couple of years ago but you can get these type of boots everywhere, including the famous brand, Uggs.

Carrying on with style I am loving something that happens to be very on trend at the moment. Denim jackets. I love mine I got from Dorothy Perkins for £28. It really works for a casual look, especially on a Sunday, or any day to be exact! It also works perfectly with leggings. Not jeans though. Double denim is a sin in my style book.

That's all for this blog post today. I hope you enjoyed it! Let me know what you would like to see this month as part of Blogtober. See you tomorrow!
