Hey girlies so I have decided to try really hard to put up more posts. I want to do every day but I know that won't happen very often, so I have decided no less than 3 a week! I just thought about doing BEDA again but then I remembered that I am away for a week during August and won't have a computer or my normal phone with me because I'm at a festival so that won't be happening. That will also be the only week with less than 3 posts.
Anyway today's post is (as you can tell by the title) a Would you rather tag. I think I have done this before in a video (not sure) but I decided to write it up anyway :) So here goes:
1: Would you rather lose all of your mascaras, eyeliners, lipsticks and lip-glosses or all of your palettes and eye-shadows?
Palettes and eye-shadows simply because I don't always use eye-shadow when I wear make-up but I always use the other stuff.
2: Would you rather chop off all your hair or never be able to cut it again?
Never be able to cut it again because I don't have the type of face that suits short hair unfortunately
3: Would you rather have a coral cheek or a pink cheek?
On me a pink cheek looks better and more natural so pink cheek.
4: If you had £1000 to spend, would you rather buy clothes or make-up?
Hmm clothes probably because I always wear clothes whereas I don't always wear make-up.
5: Would you rather apply lipstick as eyeliner or eyeliner as lipstick?
Eyeliner as lipstick because it seems more logical (although none of this actually is logical)
6: Would you rather only shop at MAC or Sephora?
Well we don't have a Sephora in the UK but I think it might be similar to a department store like Debenhams, maybe, and if it is it has more brands to choose from so I'm gonna say Sephora.
7: Would you rather only use one eye-shadow colour or one lip colour for the rest of your life?
Lip colour because that is easier to work with than eye-shadow
8: Would you rather wear winter clothes in summer or summer clothes in winter?
This is hard because I love summer clothes but I would probably freeze if I wore summer clothes in the winter, because I do live in the UK. I guess in winter you layer up, so I could just wear less layers in the summer so long as its winter clothes, right? Like long sleeves? I like that idea so I will stick with that, winter clothes in summer.
9: Would you rather dark nails or bright nails all year?
Dark nails, I wear that more anyway.
10: Would you rather give up your favourite lip product of eye product?
Eye product. Like I said before, I always wear lip products but not always eye products.
11: Would you rather only be able to wear your hair in a pony tail or a messy bun?
Pony tail. That's how I wear my hair most of the time anyway.
12: Would you rather never be able to paint your nails again or never use lipgloss?
Never paint my nails. I can go weeks without painting my nails but always have lipgloss/balm on.
13: If you shaved your eyebrows would you rather have none at all or sharpie them in everyday?
Hmm sharpie them in everyday, I guess. I would just look weird with no eyebrows.
14: Would you rather live without make-up or nail polish?
Nail polish. If I am going out I like to do both my make-up and nails. But sometimes I forget my nails, yet I could never go out-out without make-up on, because I hate having my picture taken without any make-up on.
Well that was the tag. Hope you enjoyed it. I would love to read your answers to these questions, so if you do do this tag leave a link in the comments below.
Thank you for reading.
Talk soon

I broke my right ankle and it sucks
I am totally fed up! I am fed up of wearing sweat pants, and looking like crap! I completely do not recommend breaking a bone, especially in your leg/ankle/foot. Especially if you like wearing skinny jeans and/or heels. I miss my heels and jeans. I can't even wear leggings cause I'll stretch them :(
Something else I miss is exercise! I never thought I would say that! But right before I broke my ankle I was exercising everyday and was planning on starting a more varied work-out routine and become healthier and fitter but then I went and broke my ankle and I can't to day any proper exercise. I mean I can clean but that is it! I want to start cycling, running, and so much more but I can't and it is so upsetting :(
Before I had a weight-baring cast I had to hop, with crutches, everywhere, even just to the bathroom. That was when I realized how unfit I actually am! I could only hop for a few minutes and had to get carried the rest of the way because my arms or my left hip began to ache so much. It was horrible. That was when I decided; I need to get fitter. I need to exercise more and eat healthier! And I will start eating healthier, as of right now. I feel like if I tell the internet I have to keep to it because so many people could find out and if I fail I will be failing in front of so many people.
Anyway this was just a post venting about how much I hate having a cast on! And I cannot wait to get it off. Which isn't until 11th August (right before I go away)
Let me know, have you ever broken a bone? If so how did you get on with it?
Anyway I will talk to you all soon

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 - my reaction *SPOILERS*
Hi everyone hope you are all well. I was planning on doing my outfit and nails I wore when I went to see this but I have a broken ankle so I didn't take any pictures of my outfit. However I have decided to wear the outfit again when I get my cast off and do a post then for you all. I also wanted a video to go with this post but I haven't gotten round to filming it yet, and I am wide awake so decided to write this, and when I upload the video, post that seperately :)
Anyway onto my thoughts on the final :( Harry Potter movie: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 2. I have now seen it twice, once the day it came out, and once today. What!? I had to see it the day it came out! And my boyfriend wanted to see it so why not see it with him? :P
Umm I love it! There are somethings I am dissappointed with, like they didn't show Fred dying (not sure if I'm happy or sad about that really) in the Princes tale they didn't show the letter (although they did do something better) they changed the kiss, and they also cut out my favourite bit from the trailer, the bit where Voldemort holds Harry and says "why do you live?" and he replies "because I have something worth living for!" I love that bit and I couldn't wait to see it in the film, but it wasn't there! Please someone tell me I am being an idiot and it was there! I have to have it there! It's my favourite bit from the trailer! Oh and another thing I didn't like was when Harry snaps the elder wand in half. Ok there are 2 things wrong with that bit: 1) it's supposed to be indestructible, so how is it able to be snapped in half? and 2) in the book Harry uses the elder wand to repair his wand, then put it back in Dumbledore's grave, how does Harry fix his wand now? That really annoys me!
Anyway enough of the negatives because although I did disagree with that stuff there was so much that I loved about it too! Like the Princes tale! It keeps making me cry. That is the scene I will forever cry at! It was so beautifully done and Alan Rickman deserves an Oscar nomination for it. I have fallen in love with Snily (thanks to my friend) and I cry at the chapter every time I read it, so actually watching it was hard. I couldn't control myself, I just sob every-time I see it. And I tear up every-time I think of it, or of Snape/Snape and Lily. Although they did it NOTHING like I had imagined, I love it anyway. I love the emotion on Snape's face in every memory. And when he sees Lily, lying there, dead, and he just falls against the wall crying, it breaks my heart and I can't control my tears. I'm actually wanting to cry now, just thinking about it. It's such a powerful scene and I literally only know of 4 people who didn't cry and they were all male, who aren't necessarily the biggest Harry Potter fans. One tiny, little, thing that does annoy me about when Snape dies is that he looks away before he dies. Yes he sees Lily's eyes one last time, but he looks away. He isn't supposed to do that, its supposed to be the last thing he sees. But like I said, it's one tiny little thing and I can get over it.
I adore McGonagall and Neville in this film, I mean I love them in all the other films, but in this one we get to see them fight, they have turned into bad-asses! and I love it! My favourite line from them, happens to be when they are together Neville says "Boom?" and her reply? "Boom!" and I just love it! I also love the way McGonagall says to Molly, after making the status come alive (mind block, can't remember the spell) and she just turns to Molly and says "I've always wanted to use that spell" the way she says it though, its like she is a little kid, all excited, and it makes me love her even more. A line I love from Neville is when he is on the bridge, and the death eaters can't get through the protection charms and he just yells "Yeah, you and who's army?" I love it. Neville has really grown up and he is so strong now. He now leads Dumbledore's Army. He truly is a Gryffindor in this film. How can you not love Neville?
Another thing I loved was Helena Bohem Carter, when she is playing Hermione as Bellatrix. The way she does it is incredible I mean not many actors can play other actors roles, if that makes sense. But Helena did a great Hermione. You could tell that it is really Hermione, throughout the entire scene and I love it so much. I love Helena so much, she is one of my favourite actresses and this just made me love her more. Isn't she just amazing though? How can you not love her?
I love how in love with Voldemort Bellatrix is, but obviously, he doesn't feel the same way, yet she won't give up. I really like that about her, she doesn't give up on what she loves. I think its a really great message that Jo put in there, even though its through one of the villains. I think that is why she did so well with Harry Potter. She teaches us something through all her characters. Not many authors do that, especially in children's books. But Jo does and that, in my opinion, is what makes her appeal to such a wide audience, and is why she has done so well.
I love JK Rowling so much. She is my inspiration and my hero. I would love so much to meet her one day. I owe so much to her, because without Harry Potter, I don't know where I would be. Harry Potter has always been there when I am down. I turn to my books to keep me sane, to cheer me up and to make me feel less lonely. It is such a huge part of me and I am so upset that it is over. But the final film may have been released, but in no way is that the end of Harry Potter, the legend has only just begun. And we still have Pottermore, and Con's. I am determined to go to a Harry Potter con. at least once in my life. I will go!
Anyway I should go I have a hospital appointment at 9:30am and it is now 1:06am don't know how I am going to be up in time but oh well.
I will be filming a couple of videos tomorrow and will be writing another post soon.
Talk soon and remember

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 World Premier - my reaction
Wow! That is all I can say! It was so emotional and it kind of left me feeling a little bit nostalgic. Apparently it was the biggest premier that London has ever had. And to be fair you could totally tell. It covered Trafalgar square, which is where everyone arrived then went through a "Diagon Alley" which unfortunately wasn't shown :( I wish they had shown it because I would've loved to have seen how they re-created it and if they did it right.
Imagine that full of people and you will see exactly the scale of the premier. Unfortunately I can't find a birds eye view of the premier but this was taken, maybe a day, before hand and you can already see it starting to fill up with Potterheads! =D
Almost everyone looked beautiful. Well in my opinion only one person didn't but I know other people loved her dress. I am talking about Bonnie Wright, (Ginny Weasley) I really didn't like her dress. I felt it didn't suit her at all. I guess it is my opinion but I thought the dress was ugly.
I guess it is kind of elegant. But I still don't like it. I did however LOVE Emma Watson's dress!
I mean isn't it absolutely gorgeous? Sort of reminds me of ballet. Which I love! And I have to admit her hair is starting to get better now that it is growing out. I hated her hair when she first got it cut but now that it is growing out it is starting to look really good and if I am honest I don't think she could wear that dress with long hair, well at least without a lot of effort being put into an up do. I just love her dress =] And I really like Jo's dress too. It was beautiful and looked amazing on her.
She is so beautiful and I love her so much. She is the reason for this huge premier. Without her none of this would've even been possible. If you follow me on Twitter you would've seen just how much I love her and how she is my hero and inspiration. She inspires me everyday with Harry Potter and I want to thank her so much for creating this world and I will never stop loving Harry Potter and I will always return to Hogwarts.
After everyone had arrived there was a surprise for everyone. Warner Bro's CEO (I think) made a speech. Then the 3 Davids made a speech, then Dan, Emma, Rupert and Finally Jo. It was beautiful and made me cry. Emma and Jo were crying before they even started their speeches and Rupert choked up during his. It really was beautiful and the best ending to the best premier. These 2 pictures of Emma are absolutely beautiful in my opinion and I feel they show everyone just how much Harry Potter means to people.
I feel that they show that it is such an emotional end. Harry Potter has been her life for 10 years. And now it is over and her emotions are exactly how Potterheads everywhere feel right now and during the premier. I'm not going to lie I was crying. What finished me off was what Jo said: "Hogwarts will always be there to welcome you home" I couldn't hold it any longer and I sobbed. I don't know how I am going to cope on Friday I am going to be in pieces. It really was beautiful and I am even more excited to watch it.
If you haven't watched the premier I recommend looking for it. I'm sure it will be on YouTube. And if you have watched it let me know what you thought.
Talk to you all soon

Jungle fever outfit of the day
Hey girls how are we all? Ok so this is an old outfit I wore it a few weeks ago and tried to post it from my phone but is wouldn't work and I have only now got round to uploading it on here.
I was at a fancy dress party for a YF social and as you can tell by the title it was a jungle theme. A bunch of us decided to go as explorers/"I'm a celeb..." contestants =] It was a really good night, I had a load of fun! =D
Anyway here are the pictures =]
Yes I am awesome! ha-ha I couldn't take serious looking pictures so I was being all posy ha-ha.
Everything I am wearing was from Primark simply because its cheap and I knew I was going to be ruining the back of the shirt, anyway, with marker pen =]
Hope you enjoyed this post. There will be another fancy dress outfit of the day soon. It will coincide with my nails of the day post which is also due soon =]
Let me know if you have been to any fancy dress parties lately =] Leave a link to your blog and I will check it out =]
Talk soon
