Hey Guys!
As I said in my carry-on essentials post, I went on holiday to the South Island and rode along the Otago rail trail. I had so much fun traveling, riding and seeing all of the amazing scenery around us. I took lots and lots of photos of all the little things we did and visited on holiday.  All of these photos are mine that I took on either the Go pro or my Phone.

I really enjoy traveling and visiting new places so I thought you would enjoy seeing the beauty I captured on holiday. We were extremely lucky with the weather because it was super sunny and warm and when our plane landed at home, there was snow and rain in all the places we had visited! I hope you all have had a great holiday and I would LOVE to know what you did, where you went or what your favourite holiday has been. Leave a comment for me to read, maybe follow my blog and stay tuned for my future posts.

Hey Guys!
Yay it's finally the holidays! *hold for applause*
These holidays my family and I just returned home again from our little adventure. We just flew back from the South Island and did the Otago Rail Trail which was super exciting. I had not flown on a plane for a few years so I was a little nervous but still ready for it. I thought I would show you what my carry on essentials are to help you out or if you are just nosy (Like me!!)

Depending on where I am going, I will choose what carry on bag to bring. In this case, as we are biking for most of our holiday, I have chosen this Kathmandu Duffle bag that I got for Christmas. This bag is so roomy and also comfortable to wear, Which is very important for a holiday in my opinion.

I like to pack a pair of sunglasses with me, Im not too sure why...I think I do for when I get off the plane, just in case it's really sunny...I also think I look cooler when wearing sunglasses too. These are just some cheap circle sunglasses from Jayjays.

Reading material is a must. Our flight is just over an hour long so I can get a lot of reading done too. My choices of reading for this trip are the Iliad (Which is on my phone AND my holiday homework...woopee?) And Girl Online by Zoe Sugg.

Next, I have this pouch that I fill up with mostly 'beauty' essentials. I think it is important to have pouches to organise my stuff so I can find what I want, when I want it. Inside I have...

A hair brush and hair tie. There isn't much to say about this...I like to brush my hair and hair ties are handy??

I have deodorant and lip balm. Deodorant is super useful so you don't stink up the plane because who wants that?? (not me!) I love my Dove deodorant because it makes me smell and feel fresh. I also
have lip balm because I NEED my lip balm at least with me. I usually only take cheaper lip balms because I always loose them. i got this one at a road safety expo for free...Score!

Moisturisers...I can't function with dry skin. I have this simple moisturiser for my face. It is an amazing product and leaves my skin nourished and soft. I also have this Body Butter form The Body Shop. This product also works wonders for me. Its smooth and soft on my skin and has a subtle scent of honey.

My last essentials I have not posted a picture of. But they are my Phone and Headphones. I think everyone needs their phone with them. I use mine to take photos, edit blog posts, listen to music, post instagram shots...the necessities for a teenage girl. I just have a Samsung s3 as my phone.

I hope you have an amazing holiday whether you are on spring break or just entering autumn (like myself) and had a Happy Easter.
Talk to you later.

Hey guys!
I'm sorry I have been quite in active lately, I promise I will post lots more because I actually really enjoy this 'blogging' thing I have here. Anyway... Today I am back once more with my (very short) Monthly Favourites.

Fashion
Firstly, I purchased these socks only a week ago and they are so cute!!!!!! I absolutely adore pugs so I think these were made for me. The socks are from Farmers and come in the pack of three. I really love to buy my socks from Farmers as they are quite good quality.
I got these Nike shoes for my Tennis and I can say, they are super comfy sneakers. They are a little heavier than other sneakers I have had, but they are a very good shape around the toes and ankle areas. Usually when I get new sneakers i get really bad blisters around my ankles when I first wear them....but not with these ones. I also really love the simple design and colouring. They are amazing.

Media
'The mysteries of Laura' is one of my new favourite TV shows right now. It is hilarious and easy to watch. I love the whole idea of following the life of Laura, a single mother, who tries to work as a NYPD officer in her crazy but wonderful life. Each character in the show has a distinctive personality which you have to love. I really do recommend this show to anyone... and I mean EVERYONE!

Music
This month, I have been listening to loads more electronic pop music and discovered 'Børns' EP Candy. The music makes you want to bob your head to what ever tempo the music is playing at.

Skincare
This month I picked up the 'Simple replenishing Rich Moisturiser' and it is fantastic!!! I have extremely dry and sensitive skin and this has nourished my skin everyday while I've owned it. It also doesn't make my skin oily or greasy which is a super plus.


 I hope you enjoyed reading my new post. If you would like to be updated when I post again you can follow my blog or any of my social media (Instagram, Twitter, Tumblr)

Have a great month ahead and I will talk to you later.
