The necklace isn't actually the one I have and I also couldn't find the shoes I have. Don't shoot me! Lace dress from H&M Necklace from H&M Draped blazer from New Look Essie Rock at the top Barry M Passion fruit Bourjois Rouge Velvet Edition

I'm so interested to see if I can push myself to do a post a day, as well as the other posts I have planned AND work and other Christmas related shenanigans that I've got going on this year. I should probably explain this little post before I confuse any of you, although it is pretty self explanatory; it's like vlogmas that youtubers do, but its for us bloggers instead. I saw the idea over on a lovely friend and fellow bloggers page Shannon, who's post you can see here. After reading her post I thought I'd like to give it a crack, although my posts will look no where near as nice as hers because she is a graphical goddess, but I digress.

Anyway, I'm not usually the biggest fan of Christmas due to personal reasons which I'm not going to go into detail about. However, myself and Adam (my other half) and my parents have decided to thrust ourselves into the Christmas spirit this year. I even bought a Christmas jumper for myself for the first time EVER, so I really am going the whole hog. I've got some super exciting stuff coming up this December so I'm so happy that I can actually share it with you all! There are parties, meals, BBC music awards, winter wonderland, Christmas, seeing family. Everything your little hearts could desire and I'm going to try and document it all!

I am currently writing this at 22:20 on the 1st of December, so it isn't going to be the most interesting blogmas but tomorrow I'll do a post on the beautiful Christmas market I went to this weekend with my parents and Adam *spoiler alert there is a HUGE amount of photos* so that should hopefully be more interesting!

So to say goodbye, here is the advent calendar that Adam got me and decided to try and convince me that magic Christmas elves had brought it for me.

Are you going to join in with blogmas?

I have been pretty M.I.A recently (whats new?!) but if you've seen my life this month post, then you'll see that I've been up to all different bits and pieces recently and it's only going to continue up into the new year. Exciting weeks are coming up! Anyway, before I go off about all the fun and exciting things I should probably share some of my favourite songs this month. Maroon 5 are always there and will always be there, simply because they are Maroon bloody 5 and I love them all. This however, is probably one of my top songs off of the album. Although they are all absolute belters.
If you haven't heard, Radio 1 DJ Zane Lowe has recently come together with genius of a director that is Nicolas Winding Refn to redo the music to the film drive (which is one of my favourite films). When myself and my boyfriend heard about this, we were both so excited because; we love drive, we love radio 1 and Zane Lowe, and we love all of the artists that they decided to use and I love Ryan Gosling so it was a win win experience. If you haven't watched Drive then watch the original or the radio 1 version because it is such a dark but BEAUTIFULLY shot film, top marks Refn. Anyway, everyone was raving about the 1975 song, but for me the winners were Bastille. As you can hear from this song, it is clear why. When I watched Divergent when it first came out, this song stuck out most to me and I've rekindled my love for it! Then of course there is clean bandit, who are always fab.

Also, just as a cheeky shout out. A pal of mine Ross makes house, dance and EDM mixes and DJing and is super super talented. I personally think that his mixes are fab and I would be the first to say if they were terrible because I'm a douche. Whether you're into dance music or not it's definitely worth checking out because you may find something new that you love and who doesn't love that?! Also it's the perfect type of track to play this Christmas if you're getting ready for a night out for a Christmas party or throwing a new years eve party, so give it a go! Click the link Here

What songs have you loved this month?

I actually missed last month which I'm absolutely gutted about, but unfortunately I didn't take enough photos for it to actually be worth a post. I am back for the month of October luckily though so lets crack on!
Towards the beginning of the month Adam and I went to watch Jon Richardson live at Ipswich Regent and he was honestly really really good. He's quirky and fun, yet miserable at the same time and I love it! He just seems like my perfect type of friend, he was always interacting with the audience and the stories he tells and the accents he does are just so funny.
I ended up getting a bit ill in October and Adam turned up with the most beautiful bunch of flowers, so that made me feel better.
I've been having a bit of a hard time recently with my mental health, I'm not planning on going into detail anytime soon. However, when I saw this quote on tumblr it really spoke to me and just made me feel a bit better about my situation so I wanted to share it with any who is or has been struggling.
Recently me and Adam have become smoothie OBSESSED and there is nothing better then having a smoothie when you have a hangover, especially if you're like me and seriously struggle to eat food.
Also included is a stunning sunrise, because if you don't enjoy sunrises or sunsets then you are wrong.
Lastly, Adam and I went up to Liverpool to visit my family and we took my little cousin trick or treating with my auntie and she was so excited it was really lovely and as you can see she is clearly very impressed with the 2/3 bags of sweets that she got.

So October was a fairly good month for me, what was your favourite thing to happen in October?
