Winter Essentials

Something occurred to me today as I was walking through that icy cold wind of Scotland is that maybe some people out there might want to know about life here and something's that we need to keep us sane (especially us girls). Well people I know that just walk out of there houses in the morning in just a t-shirt and jeans who most of us envy always seem to be ill, coughing or sore. I think it's there own fault. Living in Scotland I don't remember ever leaving the house without a jacket. actually recently I have been leaving the house with my handbag over flowing with essential things I need throughout the day. So I'm going to show you some of the things I use during a winter day.

                                                                            1.

Firstly I wake up to my alarm (song being 'love is on the radio' ~Mcfly) at 9am. I get up and put my fluffy bed socks on. I got mine from Primark for £2.50. I go get my breakfast, this winter I have been loving fat free Greek yogurt with frozen berries and butterscotch instant hot chocolate by options.

 At this point if you think your going to have a crappy day I would definitely treat yourself to a bath with a lush product of your choice (I can highly recommend lush is your best bet for the best bath products). After I have had my relaxing bath and feeling super ready for the day I go and wash and moisturise my face (i use Lancome gel elcat and Nivea soft moisturiser). Then do my make up and hair. *if you want me to do a video or blog post on my make up and hair routine email me or comment down below* 

  

3.

I couldn't leave the house without my lip balm (currently from the body shop in strawberry), pack of pocket tissues, gloves and a small umbrella. I have to wear a good comfortable pair of boots (mine are from Clarks)

because I have a tendency to land in puddles and get soaked to the bone don't lie you do this too.

4.

In my handbag i always have to have some cough sweets, mints,mobile, purse, small bottle of water, notepad and pen, bobbles, bobby pins, and some sensibly sized make up products.

5.

I can't go through a day without listening to music (I don't think anyone can). I'm slightly obsessed with John Mayer just now. I have been listening to his album Paradise Valley and it been on repeat all week.

I hope this might have been helpful for you. Remember to smile even if you feel things can't get better they always will. I love you. Have a good life, things always change and stay tuned for more (hopefully) beneficial stories and advice.
