August Favourites

August Favourites

Is it me or is time going really fast this year?! It felt like only yesterday I was blogging about the start of the month and that I had so much to look forward too! Anyway enough about time, these are my favourites from this month.

Food- Cashew Nuts
Since starting work I was worried that maybe I will be tempted by all the free food at the office and indulge a bit too much but so far so good, thanks to cashew nuts. They are a great filling snack that are good to eat at the desk, but I think I need to cut down my intake to a bag a week rather than 2-3 bags! I can't help it, they're so addictive.

Music- Party Next Door and Sam Smith
Although my two choices this month are completely different styles of music I am loving both of these albums! Sam Smith's voice is so soothing and mellow and just makes everything much better and on the other hand Party Next Door has a style of music similar to The Weeknd; an alternative Rap/ R&B genre.

Film- Sex and the City box set & That Awkward Moment
How have I only started watching the Sex and the City box set! I'm so hooked at the moment and I'm even switching nights out for a night in with pizza and continuous episodes of this series.

The Awkward Moment is my favourite film of the month, purely because how hot Zac Efron looks in this film. It's about three male friends who make a pact not to get into any relationships however behind closed doors they're all secretly having relationship and falling head over heels in love. It's a cute chick flick film and worth a watch.

Person- Alexandra Markina and Chloe Helen Miles
During my stalking habits on Instagram I found these two bloggers who I have fallen in love with. Alexandra Markina is a Russian model who's looks are to die for, she looks great all done up but looks AMAZING with her natural flawless face, skin and body! Chloe Helen Miles- expect a lot of posts of her amazing figure, it's quite depressing actually. This fitness and fashion blogger has it all; a great body and fantastic style, just up my street. Check them out!



Restaurant- Homeslice Pizza in Neal's Yard, Covent Garden, London
O.M.G if you're a pizza addict like me you will not want to leave this place! This dainty hidden restaurant in Neals Yard, Covent Gardens serves the biggest and tastiest pizza ever. You can choose your pizza from the menu written on the board and can even half it with another pizza flavour. As well as that your flavours are not the ordinary dominos ham and pineapple they consist of ingredients such as pesto, aubergines, scallops, spinach and artichoke etc! It's definitely in my top 5 restaurants of all time, so I highly recommend!

THE WORKWEAR EDIT: BAG












Zara Bag- £29.99

Like every other female I carry way more than what I need in my bag on the daily basis, so I have forced myself to only carry the essential things I need for work. I like a bag that has structure so I can find everything I need too, that's why this bag is perfect! It has three different compartments, which allows me to organise all my stuff and due to the size I am able to see exactly whats in my bag!

What's in my everyday work bag:
A black umbrella- You cannot rely on British weather
Karen Brady book- A motivational and inspiring read for the train journey
House keys- The obvious
Headphones- They do not leave my side
Pens- I do have to do some work...
iPad Mini- Apple-I do not need to explain this or the next one
iPhone 5s- Apple-
Crocodile clip- Lee Stafford- To clip back my unattractive windswept hair
Lipstick in Pigalle- Nars- Makeup necessity
Eau De Lierre- Diptyque- I like to smell nice
Diary- Ryman- To organise and schedule my busy life (if you have seen my Instagram, you would know that I have purchased a new diary which I will be using in the new year)
Coral purse- Reiss- I work in the city, I need money
Hand cream- Aesop- Working hands need good care
Notebook- Paperchase- To write notes and important information
