Goodbye 2014, Hello 2015

Hello everyone,

I hope you all had a brilliant Christmas and happy new year to you all. I've not posted as much as I would have liked this year, it is my new year resolution to spend more time sat at my computer and write more posts that have better quality and more content. 

This post is mainly gonna be looking back on 2014 for me. The year started off very well for me January was just the normal, in February I went to France with school. This was very fun as it gave me the opportunity to make a lot of new friends that were in different years.
 

March was a very good month for me, I got a text off Olly Murs as my friend had met him, also I met Five Seconds of Summer (5sos), I got a tweet off Olly Murs and also I went to a Kingsland Road social. This was were we had the chance to have a game of bowling with them and have a lot of pictures with them. It was very fun and exciting because I had the opportunity to do this with a lot of my friends.

April was a bit of a different month, good and bad. To start the month of I met Tich, who is one of my idols My grandad was in and out of hospital, and he was very emotional about it, which was hard as seeing someone you love with all your heart upset and not as happy as they deserve to be really does break your heart. He shortly after got discharged from the hospital. May was just like January.

June was fun, June is my birthday month and lots of different things happened. At the start of the month it was Soccer Aid which is a charity football match where lots of different celebrities have a football game. It is the English against the Rest of the World. As Olly Murs was playing on the English team I went to try and meet him. Unfortunately I didn't meet him but I had the chance to meet some of my internet friends, such as Rochelle, Chloe, Hollie and Laura. this was very exciting and this made me happy. It was also my days birthday during this month and we went out for a meal with my godparents and the rest of my family. Then it was my birthday, the weekend before I had a family party and then the following weekend I had a friends party where we went for a meal at TGIs with all my school friends.

It was then quickly July which was also a good month for me as we broke up for summer which meant that we had 6 weeks off school. Also  my mum and sister share the same birthday and this year my mum was 50 whilst my sister was 21 on the same day. For this special occasion they had a joint 71st birthday party where they both invited a lot of their friends and obviously our family to join us celebrating. I enjoyed this as it gave me a chance to see the people that I don't see very often.

August came very, very quickly, we had a holiday booked for Skiathos which is a Greek island. We had planned to go out here because my cousin got married out there. To put things simply I feel in love the place. Everything we did out there, the company we were with, I just loved it all. Unfortunately it was over very quickly and we were back home in rainy England and then two days after it was back to school . September wasn't very exciting as it was just school work and adjusting to my new options.

October was the month for me! Firstly I saw Ed Sheeran live, with barrier tickets (front row). Then the next day I only went and met Olly Murs, the love of my life! These were the two most exciting days of the year and definitely the most eventful. November I met Alfie Deyes and Zoe Sugg (PointlessBlog and Zoella). Them two days were exciting as they were lovely to meet and I also met them with my best friends!

Then it was Decemeber! Which means Christmas! Most of the month was spending time with my friends and family, Christmas shopping and a lot more! Then Christmas arrived I got very lovely presents which I appreciate very much, and I got to spend a lot of time with the people that mean the most to me, family. It was then New Years Eve, I think 2014's NYE was one of the best I have ever had. I spent it with my dads side of the family whereas we usually spend it with my mums side of the family. I spent most of the night with my older cousins as I don't see them very often because the live down south. The night consisted of dancing, singing, catching up, lots of photos being take and generally just enjoying ourselves. Just before midnight my uncle made a speech which made me cry so yes, thank you Uncle Mark.

We were then in 2015.

I didn't realise how much I had done this year till I wrote this and I am so thankful to all the people that have been here for me this year and for everyone I have spent the past year with.

I hope you all had an excellent 2014 and I hope you all have an even better 2015. As I said I am going to be spending more time at my laptop writing  blog posts so if you have anything that you would want me to write about then just let me know. I am also going to be changing my post days and the amount of post I am going to be uploading a week. This is because I have realised how hard it is keeping up with two a week. I am going to be uploading one a week and this will be on a Friday.

Thank you for taking your time to read this blogpost and I hope you all have an amazing new year.
Love Nicole x x x

Nail Varnish Collection

Hello everyone!



As promised I am going to be talking about my nail varnish collection and favourite brand and colours.  I am not sure whether my collection is large or small. I have a variety of different brands, but I only use some of them, the rest are just there as they may come in handy some day.


To start off with I am just going to talk trough all the different ranges that I have. My collection ranges from BarryM, Collection, S&C, L&B, 17, No7, OPI and then just some random ones from magazines and things like that!



My favourite range is BarryM and it is definitely the range I have most colours from. I have one matte colour which is black and probably the most used colour. I then have a grey which is from the magnetic collection. The rest are just the normal polish and most of the colours I have are summery colours, a bright orange, two different colours of blue. I also have some of the glitter collection. After all of these I have the matte top coat which just makes any normal colour have the matte finishing effect.


I really like BarryM because they can be applied easily, and the consistency of them is not to thick and heavy. I also like the applicator because the brush is thin and easy for people with small nails and little fingers. BarryM range from baby blues to midnight blues and from pastel pinks to the deepest reds. They also have different collections, for example the matte range and the magnetic. I am hoping to soon be able to get a gel colour as I have heard good reviews about them.


That's all I have to say for today. If you guys have any suggestions on ranges that are good please let me know, thank you!

Incite To My Blog


Hello everyone,


I just want to start of by saying that I have wanted to start and create a blog for ages now. One of the main reasons for this is because most of my favourite YouTubers have created a channel, but have gained confidence from a blog before hand. I am very eager to create a YouTube channel but am also very scared as well. I have a good quality camera and a tripod all ready but haven't really had the guts to do it. I have filmed a few videos here and there but never actually put them anywhere. Hopefully this blog will help me gain the confidence that I need to start one.


I am hoping that this blog will be a beauty, fashion and music (singers/albums) one with hints of my monthly favourites in. I am very into fashion, make up and nail varnishes etc. I am going to include my favourite shop of the month and my favourite product of the month. I am going to be posting weekly blogs but I'm not sure how many days a week that will be, for the moment I am going to do two but it could always change to three. I think for the time being the days I am going to upload a blog will be a Wednesday and Friday as I usually have more free time to create it to the best of my ability, but if anything changes I will be sure to let you know about that. Wednesday's will be about my favourite  music at the moment and then Friday's will be a beauty and fashion blog .


My first blog post will be tomorrow. This is so you can get a little incite of what my blog will be like and whether you will enjoy it or if you want me to change anything. Tomorrows blog is going to be about my nail varnish range and what my favourite brand and colours to use are. I will also be doing a 20 facts about me blog, in the future so you can get to know me a little bit better.


I hope you will enjoy my blog and will begin to read it at every upload. if you have any questions follow me on twitter which is @s0discrete. that is it for now! I hope you enjoyed. See you soon.
