Always running late...

...then don't panic my essential super quick morning routine is perfect for when your running late for school work or anything really.

   If I'm running late it's usually (always) because i have slept in so the first thing i do is jump out of bed and make my bed. Even though making my bed might seem a waste of time when running late i think it's great, makes you slightly fitter and it only takes 15 seconds, plus it's always lovely coming home to a nice tidy room instead of one with the duvet on the floor.

 I sleep with my hair in two plaits for two reasons, one it gives your hair nice, natural looking waves and two it's great for times like this! Just pull out the plaits and brush out your hair into soft, effortless waves. 

After taking out my plaits i get dressed and do a simple makeup routine. If I'm in a rush I will only use foundation, concealer ( gotta hide those bags!), eyeshadow, eyeliner, blusher,  bronzer and of course lip balm. 

After that I grab my bag (get into the habit of packing your bag the night before if running late is a problem) head downstairs and grab a quick easy breakfast like a cup of coffee and some fruit and yougurt.  

Then brush your teeth and your out the door! 

I hope this post helps you to be even a little less late for things. Please follow and comment. See you soon.

Back to School Essentials

School is just around the corner (*whimpers*) so I thought I would make a post about back to school essentials. Every year I tell myself that I will be super organized, have amazing school supplies and be the queen of school organization, yet every year I end it with half a rubber and three pages of my planner left in my broken and grubby school bag, so this year I decided to make a list of my school essentials.


1. I always like to have a hand sanitizer in my bag as so many places in school are filled with horrible germs and bacterias and if I'm eating my lunch at school then I like to use this so my hands are nice and clean.

2. I like to bring a planner with me into school every day as these are fabulous for writing homework assignments, meetings and social events down and I make a point of checking this every day so I know what I need to bring.

3. If you wear makeup then I think a makeup bag is a great thing to have with you. It's a great way to make sure your powder or foundation doesn't explode ruining your nice bag and books.

4. My purse I something I never go without as it contains my money, lunch card and any other things like that I may need.

5. A little pencil case with pencils, pens, highlighters, and post it notes.

6. A body spray is great especially if you are worried about smelling funny or if you have PE.

7. I always pop a pack of mints or gum into my bag to make sure your breath smells nice after lunch.

8. My final essential is little notebook that's perfect for writing in extra stuff any phone numbers or lists of things to buy.

I hope you enjoyed this post and it helps you get ready for the new school year and please comment, follow and have a lovely day!
