R1BW!

Hey guys! I managed to get the opportunity to go to Radio 1's Big Weekend on Saturday & Sunday. This was such a great experience. I love festivals & as this was all for free, it was amazing. There were artists there for everyone's taste of music. I managed to get tickets for me & a few friends to go, and loads of my other friends got tickets as well, so it really was a great weekend. 

When I found out that Big Weekend was coming to Norwich, I was so excited and knew I had to get tickets! The highlights of the weekend were definitely seeing Years & Years, James Bay & George Ezra. These are three of my favourite artists and to see them all for free was such a pleasure! I also managed to see many other amazing artists like Taylor Swift, Hozier, Imagine Dragons, Clean Bandit & many more. 

The atmosphere was insane, drinking in the sun, listening to live music, what more could you want. It was a shame that on the Sunday there were a few heavy showers but it didn't ruin it at all, as it's all part of the experience. My advice for festivals would be to only take what you need, you don't want to be carrying around bags in crowds. Make sure you bring enough money, as you're not allowed to bring your own food or drink into any festival, you will have to buy it there and the prices are quite high and have an amazing time, you're never going to see these people again so just enjoy it, who cares what you look like!

This was just a quick post, but after the weekend, I've been so busy working and revising for my exams that I don't have much time to post at the moment. But now that I've finished school I'll be able to post a lot more and buy a lot more products to post about(:

Sunnies out ☀

Summer is my favourite time of year. Everyone's so much happier, waking up to the sun. I love having a tan, and I get so brown, it's great. But my hardest decision each morning is what sunglasses to wear.. I have a slight obsession with buying sunglasses, I don't know what it is, I just like to have the choice between them all. 

These were my latest addition to my collection. They're £16 from Topshop. I almost always buy my sunglasses from Topshop because I'm able to try them on before buying them. I have quite small features on my face, so some sunglasses look ridiculous on me. But I really like the cat eye glasses at the moment, I think they really compliment my head shape. My excuse to buy these was because I don't have just a plain black pair, so of course I needed some. 

Again, this pair were from Topshop, I got these last year. They were £16, I thought they were great for festivals, as they're really chunky. Tortoise shell goes with everything. As these are really bold, they make a statement to my outfit. The shape and fit of these glasses are amazing, they're really comfortable to wear.

 These glasses were £14 from Topshop. I really like the shape of them, and the round lens is really good for me, as of my small features. But the frame gives them more of a shape which I really like. 

These have to be my favourite pair of sunglasses! Just the colour of them, they're from Asos, £35, I was a bit unsure about these at first, because they're so big and chunky. But they actually look really good for summer, especially the festivals I've got coming up. I can't wait to wear them. 

I bought these sunglasses to go to my first ever festival, latitude 2013, and it's been the best one so far! It sounds stupid but they actually have a lot of memories from that year. They were £14 from Topshop. I now wouldn't go for this shape when looking for sunglasses, but the frame of this pair is so pretty! It's floral and glittery. 

& of course, everyone needs a round pair! Topshop £16.
