Super Healthy Kale Smoothie

 Want a quick and easy, super healthy breakfast? Well look no further than this kale smoothie.

first you can add bananas, oranges, blueberries and raspberries (a mix of fresh and frozen fruit is best to keep the smoothie chilled and still full of goodness). Then add a handful of washed chopped fresh kale and drizzle with a fruit juice of your choice (make sure it is a fruit juice and not a 'juice drink'). Blitz in a smoothie maker or food processor until smooth. Serve in a cold glass to kickstart your morning.

Lush Goodies | Ultimate Shine Solid Shampoo Bar

Ultimate Shine Solid Shampoo Bar

I have been a massive fan of Lush's solid shampoo bars for so long. They are perfect for traveling and on short trips or beach holidays when you don't want to be carrying bottle after bottle of cosmetics and toiletries. Before my recent trip to Amsterdam I headed into my nearest Lush store to pick one up and after a wee chat with the ever s helpful Lush staff I decided to go for this, Ultimate Shine bar. Lush have changed back the recipe of there bars so they lather much better than they did before so that was a massive plus. This bar really did live up to its name, just after one wash (and with no other products) my hair was super soft and even managed to tame my frizzy hair in the Amsterdam heat! The sent on this bar isn't as strong as some of the stores other products but it leaves your hair smelling fresh but not overpowering. Ultimately I can't wait to use this bar again next time I go away on a little holiday to give my hair a shiny treat, and for just £5.50 I think its pretty good bargain too!

The Coolest Shoes in Middle Earth

"A red sun rises, Blood has been spilt this night" - Legolas Greenleaf 

Middle Earth map

One of my good friends has some awesome artistic skills and has always been into fashion and customising her own clothes. Just before she is due to head out to Australia for a while she picked up a basic pair of white pumps and customised them with a map of the world and lots of traveler quotes and I fell in love with them instantly. She said that she had bought a spare pair incase she made a mistake on hers and she offered to make me my own pair (we have the same size feet). Due to the fact I'm a massive Lord of the Rings geek she based my ones on the Middle Earth map with some epic LOTR quotes. I love them so much I just had to share them, and my mates talent, with everyone.

Any and of you guys handy with the Sharpie??

One Direction for MUA | 'Rock Me' Lipstick

'Rock Me' 1D for MUA

Well I would never call myself a 'Directioner' but I was quite intrigued when the boy wonders teamed up with the bargain make-up brand MUA to create a small range of lipsticks,nail polishes and tints. Most  things in the collection didn't really take my fancy, but I feel this collection was produced with a much younger target market in mind! I was however drawn to one shade of the 'Kiss You xx' lipsticks so thought I would pick it up and give it a try. At three times the price of the other lipsticks that MUA offers, I was expecting the quality to be a little bit better. This shade however was relatively glossy and took quite a few layers for the desired colour so that was a little disappointing as I'm usually a massive fan of this brand but oh well, can't win them all!

Have any of you tried any of the One Direction MUA range?

Time to Take a Walk Down Autumnal Street | Nails

Jermyn Street

IT AUTUMN 

I used to love this time of year, mainly because I used to be a ginger, and autumn colours went really well with my orange locks. This year, I kind of wish Summer lasted just a wee while longer. I'm guessing its just the scary thought of going back to school for my final year. There is however two Autumn trends that I am loving and looking forward to wearing and that it Nude nails and lips. Due to my super pale skin and quite naturally pink lips, finding a nude lipstick that matches and suits my skin tone is almost impossible (My self and several MAC girls have tried and failed this quest many times). To get my mind back onto season I thought I would dig through some of my old nude nail polishes and came across this gorgeous shade 'Jermyn Street' by Nails Inc.
