Music Mondays!

So I do love my music. I don't think I've ever gone a day without listening to it. 

I like to think of my music taste as diverse because I listen to lots of different genres ranging from Chart Music to Country to Punk so I think it's a good idea for me to share a weekly playlist with you guys where I share which songs/artists I have been loving the past week!

Recently I went to V Festival and listened to some artists I'd never seen before but I also saw ones that I absolutely adored. So firstly an artist I've been loving this week is Ed Sheeran. I hadn't really heard much from his new album before I went to watch him but as soon as I heard him sing the songs I knew I needed to get it. I can't praise him enough for how good he was on stage and I'm really proud of how far he's come from the beginning. He's so humble and you can tell he loves every second of performing. 

My favourites off his new album are Nina, Tenerife Sea, Bloodstream, Afire Love, All Of The Stars and I See Fire.

His lyrics have developed so well in this album, ranging from meaningful songs to romantic songs, especially Tenerife Sea, it's the kind of song you want to be serenaded on a beach with! Which is why I love it so much, being a typical girl! And obviously if you've seen The Fault In Our Stars like me, you'll understand why I love All Of The Stars so much!

So if you haven't already you have to go and buy his X album because it's well worth it. Obviously it's not the party kind of music but it's great to listen to when you're feeling thoughtful!

Also another artist I've been loving this week is a girl called Chlöe Howl. To be truthful before V Fest I'd never heard of her before but my friend insisted I go to watch her and I'm so glad I did. She has such a unique voice and is amazing live! She deserved such a bigger crowd than she got. My favourites of hers are Disappointed and Rumour as she isn't afraid to express her feelings in her songs. Her lyrics are so clever and I can't wait for her to show everyone what she's made of!

Chloe Howl- Disappointed

And the last artist to talk about is a boy called Shawn Mendes. He started off singing 6 seconds snippets on the Vine App where he got more and more views. Eventually he actually did manage to bag himself a record deal where he's produced his own EP. I've always been a fan of his singing because I think he has such a unique voice. He's two years younger than me but he already has a huge fandom and I think he'll end up being really big soon. Because he is so young I half expected his songs and lyrics to be really 'poppy' and a bit cheesy like similar 16 year-olds songs but he blew me away by the lyrics of his songs and the music he sings to. His favourites of mine are The Weight and Life Of The Party.

Shawn Mendes- The Weight

Shawn Mendes- Life Of The Party

and just a few extra songs-

Rizzle Kicks- Tell Her. These guys surprised me so much at V Fest. They have amazing energy on stage and their voices are really great! I fell in love with their new single immediately.

Capital Cities- Safe and Sound. I know this song is about a year old but I still love this song and it's squeezed its way back into my playlist recently!

Iggy Azalea & Rita Ora- Black Widow. I love this song as I'm slowly falling in love with Iggy Azalea and this song is all about girl power so I'm all in!

Taylor Swift- Shake It Off. I've seen so many mixed reviews about this song and I'll be honest I'm not too much of a Taylor Swift fan but I fell in love with this song. It's so catchy and I love that in the video she doesn't take herself too seriously. It's a happy song that you will find yourself singing along to!

David Guetta- Lovers On The Sun. This is my favourite party song I've been listening to recently. Sam Martin's voice in this is amazing and I love the whole beat of the song. I've also heard it played in a lot of clubs recently too!

So they are the artists/songs that I've been listening to recently. I want to try and make this a weekly thing although not sure how it's going to work next week as I'm holiday but I will try and post something!

Thanks for reading, comment who you've been listening to this week, I love discovering new artists/songs!

Stay Happy

Would you rather?!

I can't believe it's almost been a month since I last wrote a blog post! I'm so ashamed! 

I have been pretty busy though, spending lots of time with my friends and family whilst I can, before I go to university at the end of September.

I also obviously had results day where I luckily got enough points to get into my first University of my choice which is Edge Hill University doing Film and TV Production. Then the day after I had V Festival in Staffordshire which was amazing.

So I thought I'd get back into the swing of things by starting with a tag from another blogger. I recently read the Would You Rather- Beauty Edition Tag over on Touch Of Belle (Touch Of Belle) and I thought I would answer the questions myself!

1) Would You Rather... Lose all of your mascara, eyeliners, lipsticks and lipglosses or lose all of your palettes and eyeshadows?

I would definitely rather lose all of my palettes and eyeshadows! I don't think I could live without my mascaras and lipsticks!

2) Would You Rather... Chop off all your hair or never be able to cut it again?

That's easy! I would much rather never be able to cut my hair again. I want my hair really long any ways so that's sounds great to me!
3) Would You Rather... Have a coral cheek or a pink cheek?

I would rather have a coral cheek. I don't think I suit pink as well as coral but I think it's still hard to find a nice coral colour.

4) Would You Rather... Have £1000 to spend all on clothes or all on make up?

This was a bit difficult but after thinking it over I would definitely rather spend it on clothes. As much as I love make-up I would just be able to buy all the clothes I wanted and that makes me happy!

5) Would You Rather... Apply lipstick as eyeliner or eyeliner as lipstick?

Definitely apply eyeliner as lipstick. You can find pretty much any colour eyeliner so it wouldn't be too bad.
6) Would You Rather...Only shop at MAC or Sephora?

It would have to be MAC. I just adore their lipsticks too much!

7) Would You Rather... Only use one eyeshadow or one lip colour for rest of your life?

Well I live for different lipsticks so it would have to be only use one eyeshadow.

8) Would You Rather... Wear winter clothes in summer or summer clothes in winter?

I pretty much wear all my summer clothes in winter anyways, just with tights or jumpers over the top so I would have to choose that.

9) Would You Rather... Have dark nails or bright nails all year round?

Easily bright nails! I think they brighten up a whole outfit no matter what the season is!
10) Would You Rather... Give up your favourite lip product or favourite eye product?

I'd rather give up my favourite eye product because I really wouldn't be able to give up my favourite MAC lipstick!

11) Would You Rather... Only be able to wear your hair in a ponytail or a messy bun?

I wear my hair in a messy bun like a lot these days but I'm going to have to say a ponytail because I'm really not good at doing messy buns and it frustrates me when it all falls out! I'd rather keep it simple with a ponytail.
12) Would You Rather... Never be able to paint your nails again or never use lip gloss?

I can't even remember the last time I wore lipgloss so I would rather never use that again because I live for painting my nails!

13) Would You Rather... Shave eyebrows and have none at all or sharpie them in each day?

I would have to sharpie them in, but not very much. I think I would look absolutely ridiculous without eyebrows!

14) Would You Rather... Live without make up or nail polish?

As much as I love my nail polishes I wouldn't be able to live without my make-up so I'm going to have to say live without nail polish unfortunately :(

So that's the end of the tag and I want to tag you lovely lot who read this because I think this is a good way to get to know a blog owner better! Comment if you do this tag too so I can see if any of our answers are the same!

Stay Happy
