I was looking through my comments and I saw that the lovely Dani over at Smidge of Pretty blog had nominated me for the Liebster Award...
For those of you who don't know, the Liebster Award is given by bloggers to bloggers with 200 or less followers and "liebster" actually means "favourite" or "beloved" in German. I think this is a great way to welcome new bloggers to the community and is a way to help each other out and spread the word about new blogs.
The Rules for the Liebster Award...
-You must answer all questions that are given to you
-Must link back to the person that nominated you
-Nominate 11 bloggers
-Provide nominees with 11 questions of your choice
-Must inform nominees of your nomination

My Questions From Dani...
1. What's your most embarrassing memory?
My most embarrassing memory must be when my family and I went to Spain for two weeks aged about 8. We all went to the beach but I was the only one walking along the shore. The waves were massive (or at least they felt massive but they probably weren't!). They came closer by about two metres every time there was a wave. So there I was, innocently playing on the beach and a huge wave was heading towards me, so I ran as fast as I could, and well I think you can figure out the rest... I was so wet after that i had to take my pants off and wear my mums' cardigan as a skirt for the rest of the day...
2. Favourite film ever and why?
My favourite film at the moment must be The Hunger Games. I just love it! It's so cute. It keeps you in suspense all the way through. I love Catching Fire (second film) too, but I don't like the way it ends because when you watch it you really want to know what happens next! The next movie, Mocking Jay Part One came out in November and it was amazing! Can't wait until next year when they release Part Two.

3. Would you rather give up forever sweets or chocolate?
I would have to give up sweets because I simply adore my chocolate. I do! My favourite is Galaxy Cookiecrumble. I could literally eat a whole bar in less than a minute! Mwhahah...

4. What is your pet peve and why?
I really hate when you're playing with your pet and its fur or fluff goes all over you and it takes hours to get it all off. This happens quite a lot when I'm just about to go to out.
5. What makeup item could you not live without?
I couldn't live without lipsticks or lip glosses as to me they reflect what mood I'm in. If I'm happy I'll tend to wear a pinky glittery lip gloss but if I'm stressed (as us ladies often are!) I might wear something darker or just wear lip balm. I also think lip products can emphasise facial features and can completely transform a look.

6. Who is your idol?
Sia - if you haven't read much about her life history go and Google her and see what hardships she has faced and what amazing talent she has!

7. What do you want to be when you grow up? (Yes, there's still time!) When I grow up, I really want to be a teacher. It's been a dream ever since I was little. I used to make my mum buy me school supplies like real school type registers from Amazon and then I would set up a 'classroom' and play school with my friends. I would take it so seriously and keep worksheets from school, plan out all my lessons and actually make and fill in worksheets, then mark then with a red pen. Haha! |
8. Which beauty product would you recommend that everyone should try?
I would definitely recommend Laura Mercier Butterfly Wings nail polish. Many people have complained that it does not give good coverage but many of Laura Mercier's polishes that I have are like that and you can always put an extra coat on as it is a thin and quick drying formula. I will review this on the blog very soon.

9. What is your favourite smell?
I sometimes go to Wetherspoons for my breakfast and I always order American pancakes with bacon, which comes with a pot of maple syrup. The smell is heavenly! Next time you eat out at breakfast time you absolutely must try Wetherspoons. You absolutely MUST try it with a special cream topped hot chocolate!

10. What is your most irrational fear? I don't really have one big fear. I have a few little ones. I don't like.. baldy men with beards, comb-overs, carousels, spiders that have a little body but really big legs, or any spiders really, the man off the go compare advert, really big mirrors, when you are trying to sleep, when you flush the toilet on trains or aeroplanes. There are loads more but I won't bore you with them. |
11. Last book you read? The last book I read was There's a Boy in the Girls Bathroom by Louis Sachar. It is my favourite book of all time. It is so meaningful and touching. I found it when I went shopping and I had to buy it! I've read it about 5 times since I bought it! |
