MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!! Christmas Day Make Up!

Merry Christmas Everyone! I hope you all had a fabulous Christmas!!! Christmas is my favourite time of the year, I love everything about Christmas!! I hope you all have a fantastic Boxing Day as well!! I decided to create a natural looking make up look as can be seen below, I used most of the products from my No7 Instant Glamour Make Up Kit to create this make up look.

The No7 Instant Glamour Kit includes:

No7 Stay Perfect Amazing Eye Pencil in Black - I didn't use this product to create this make up look but if I was going to go out on a night, I would use this to create a dramatic eye make up look.

No7 Limited Edition Lip Gloss - This Lip Gloss is gorgeous, it's a baby pink shade and is perfect for any natural make up look. 

No7 Stay Perfect Eyeshadows in Moonlight Shadows and Chocolate Fondant - I love both of these shades because they are completely different one is a creamy beige colour and the other is a sparkly midnight blue shade.

No7 Natural Blush Tint Powder in Soft Damson - I love this blusher because it looks very natural, I have used this product before and I loved it so I'm very happy I received more for Christmas.

No7 Blusher Brush - I love trying new make up brushes and I have to say this one is amazing!!

To create this make up look, I used my favourite foundation which is No7's Instant Radiance foundation in Cool Vanilla, in my opinion this foundation is the best one I have ever used, it's perfect for creating a natural dewy look. I then created my eye make up look, I applied the Chocolate Fondant eye shadow on my eye lid and then put a small amount of Moonlight shadow in the crease to create a natural smokey eye make up look. I did apply mascara but I used a Bare Minerals Flawless Definition mascara as it's my favourite mascara at the minute as it's great for lengthening and volumising lashes. I then used the blusher brush to apply blusher, this blusher is really natural looking, it's perfect for a natural make up look. The Lip Gloss is also a gorgeous peachy nude colour, perfect for any natural make up look, I love No7 Lip Glosses they are very long lasting and look amazing!!

Merry Christmas! I hope you all had a fabulous day yesterday!

Happy Boxing Day everyone!!!

Thanks so much for reading!

My Two Favourite Highlighters

Hello everyone, I hope you are having a good weekend. I'm so excited it's nearly Christmas! Christmas is one of my favourite times of the year and I hope you all have a fabulous time this Christmas. Today, I thought it would be good if I did a blog post on my two favourite highlighters at the moment which are my Bare Minerals Highlighter in The Magic Moment and The Balm Cosmetics' Mary-Lou Manizer, both of these highlighters are amazing and give a gorgeous shimmer.

Bare Minerals Highlighter in The Magic Moment

This highlighter is my favourite highlighter to use to create a simple everyday make up look as I think it looks really natural and is perfect for a daytime make up look. I think this highlighter looks great with a subtle pink blusher like my Bare Minerals Blusher in The Natural High as I think this is a gorgeous blusher perfect for a lovely daytime make up look.

The Balm Cosmetics Mary-Lou Manizer

I ordered this highlighter recently and I love it, it's perfect for a bold night time make up look. I love this highlighter as the shimmer is amazing and it looks great when used with a nice bronzer. I love this highlighter and I think I will use this many times throughout the Christmas holidays as I think it will be perfect for creating Christmassy make up looks.

Thank you so much for reading!

MY BLACK FRIDAY BARGAINS!!!

Hello everyone, I hope you are all having a fantastic weekend! Yesterday I went shopping to see if I could find a few bargains as most shops were having amazing offers on. I ordered a highlighter from the Balm in Mary Lou Luminizer on Feel Unique's website on Wednesday night and I was hoping it would arrive so I could include it in this blog post, but it didn't arrive today so I think it will probably be delivered sometime next week, it was reduced from £17.50 to £14, which I thought was a good deal as I had been wanting to try this product out for ages and I knew as soon as I saw the offer that I had to buy it. I can't wait for this highlighter to arrive because I have wanted to try this product out for ages as it looks amazing.

I went into Dorothy Perkins as I always love the offers they have as you can always get a good bargain. This skirt was originally £24 and it was reduced to £16.80, I think this was an amazing offer, I think this skirt will be perfect with a turtle neck jumper and boots in the winter to create a perfect winter outfit. I also love the colour of this skirt because I think it is perfect for this time of year.

I then went to Primark as I wanted to find some more jumpers as I have been loving the other jumpers I bought from Primark a few weeks ago. I decided to get two jumpers in navy and cream as I think these colours are perfect for this time of year. These jumpers are my favourite style of jumper I have had in years because they are so comfy and perfect for the Winter. These jumpers were reduced from £6 to £4.90 which I think is an absolute bargain, these jumpers are perfect for the cold weather as they are so cosy.

I hope you have all managed to find a few bargains in the Black Friday sales. Have a lovely weekend xxxxx

MY CLINIQUE SKINCARE REVIEW!

Hiya everyone, I hope you are having a lovely weekend. This blog post will be my opinion on the my favourite skincare products. I bought the Clinique skincare set a month ago at The Cosmetic Company Store at the Chester outlet. I chose the dry combination set as I have dry skin and I wanted to see if these products would improve my skin. I am always very interested in trying different skincare products as I'm always trying to improve my skin and make it clearer. 

The gift set includes:

The Clinique Liquid Facial Soap

The Clinique Clarifying Lotion 

The Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturising Lotion 

The Clinique 7 Day Scrub Cream

I have been using these products twice a day for the past month and here is my opinion on these products. I love the liquid facial soap as it's so gentle and kind to skin, I think this is perfect for me and I have noticed a massive difference in my skin, I love it. 

I also love the clarifying lotion, this is great for using after I've used the liquid soap as it makes my skin look great and feel amazing. The only thing I would say is a negative of this product is the smell is quite strong.

I then use the moisturising lotion, I love this moisturiser as its so nice and kind to skin. Another good thing is I only have to use a small amount of moisturiser as its very moisturising. 

I also use scrub cream once a day and I love it. I'm not usually a massive fan of facial scrubs but this one is amazing, my skin feels so soft after I've used it and it looks so much clearer.

Thanks so much for reading!

Bare Minerals Colour Extravaganza Eye Look 3 - READY TO AMAZE!

Hiya everyone, I hope you are all having a fantastic week. I just want to thank you all because this week my Blog reached 9,000 page views, I think that's incredible, I never ever imagined it would be read a thousand times never mind 9,000. Thank you all so much, I really appreciate it and hopefully my Blog will hit 10,000 page views before the end of the year, thanks for the amazing support. Today I have created another make up look using my Bare Minerals Colour Extravaganza palette, I hope you all like it!

The products used: 

No 7 Instant Radiance Foundation in Cool Vanilla, perfect for if you want a dewy finish and good coverage.

Bare Minerals All Over Face Colour in Warmth, perfect for creating a natural sunkissed look.

Bare Minerals Highlighter in The Magic Moment, I absolutely love this highlighter at the minute, it's perfect for creating a natural shimmer.

Bare Minerals Blusher in The Natural High, this is a gorgeous shimmery pink blusher, I love it.

Bare Minerals Marvelous Moxie Lipstick in Be A Star with Bare Minerals Marvelous Moxie Lip Gloss in Spark Plug, this is probably one of my favourite lip gloss and lip stick combinations, I think they look amazing together.

For my eyes, I used three shades from my Bare Minerals Colour Extravaganza palette to create the "Ready to Amaze" eye make up look. The shades I used were called Pizzazz, Bewilder and Connoisseur which I think create a gorgeous eye make up look. My favourite shade was Bewilder because it was a shimmery grey shade which I thought would be perfect for bold make up look. I used the Bare Minerals Flawless Definition Mascara which is my favourite mascara, perfect for making lashes look longer and natural. I also used my favourite Bare Minerals brush, my Tapered Shadow and Crease brush which is amazing for creating perfect eye make up looks.

PRIMARK HAUL - AUTUMN/WINTER 2015

Hello everyone, I hope you are all having a fantastic weekend. I can't believe how fast this year is going, it's November and I'm so excited for Christmas. Today I have decided to do a Primark Haul blog post, I did my last clothes haul in August so I thought I would do another one again as I got lots of positive feedback on that post.

I love this jumper. I bought this because I love wearing jumpers and shirts together in the Winter and this is perfect because it's so warm and comfortable. I really like the colour of the jumper as well as its a bit different which I think makes the jumper individual. This was £14 and I think that is an absolutely amazing price as the jumper is so thick and cosy.

I love tops like this, this is one of my favourite styles of tops. I liked this top because it was a bit different as it had a slit on the back of the top with a floral lace pattern. The front of this top looks so simple and I love the back of it as it makes it look unique. This was £9 which I think is very affordable.

I then bought this plain simple top just to wear to Sixth Form. I love tops like this just to have something to wear with a smart jacket or blazer. I think this was £8.

This is one of my favourite tops at the minute. I love the original lace detail on the shoulder area of the top. I love this colour as well because its so simplistic and perfect for the Winter. I think this top was only £8 which I think is incredible.

I also bought these two jumpers from Primark for only £6 each, I love these jumpers as they are dead cosy and I've actually had a lot of compliments on them. I love the colours as I think they are perfect for the Winter. These are probably my favourite jumpers at the minute, I am thinking of going back to Primark and buying more of these in different colours as they are so affordable.

Thanks so much for reading!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE!!!

Hello everyone, I hope you have all had a brilliant half term and have enjoyed the holidays.

I have lots of ideas and blog posts planned for the future but if you have any good ideas or posts you would like to see then please comment them below, thank you xxxxx

I wanted to try and create a bold make up look therefore I chose to use dark eye shadows and a bold volumising mascara in order to make sure my eyes stood out. I also went with a dramatic red lip as I think a red lip is perfect for making a make up look, look more dramatic. I wanted to try out a different kind of make up look as it's Halloween, I hope you all like it.

My Top 8 Beauty Products under £15

Hello everyone, I hope you are all having a fantastic weekend. I hit 8,000 page views the other day, I just want to say thank you to everyone who reads my blog posts. Thank you all so much!! Today I have decided to talk about my 8 favourite beauty products which are very affordable with all the products priced under £15. I have chosen my favourite make up products which I have been using these products for months and I love them!

The Barry M Flawless Chisel Cheeks Contour Kit - £6.49.

I love this product, I use the medium brown shade as my bronzer for my everyday make up look. I think all of the shades are perfect to create a natural contour. I bought this contour kit when I wanted to try contouring, I would definitely recommend this contour kit to someone who doesn't know much about contouring because I think this kit is so simple and easy to use.

Maybelline's Lash Sensational Mascara - £7.99.

I love this mascara, I think this mascara is very similar to Benefit's Roller Lash mascara, I have both mascara's and I think they are both amazing, but if you are looking for a cheaper option then this is one for you. The shape of the brush is very easy to use as it makes sure it reaches all of my lashes, however it has taken me a while to get this mascara perfect for me, to begin with I found my lashes were very clumpy and I really don't like clumpy mascara so I think if you don't go overboard on the amount you use then they will look great but if you put too much on, it might not look as nice. I have now mastered how many coats to put on in order to make my lashes look longer and fuller without making them look clumpy.

No7's Stay Perfect Eye Shadow in a dark brown/gold shade from Cappucino Trio - £7 and my No7 Instant Radiance Foundation in Cool Vanilla - £12.50.

This eye shadow is amazing, the colour lasts ages and is perfect for creating a glamorous bold make up look, I love creating a dark smoky eye make up look as I think this shade is gorgeous. I am definitely going to be using this shade from now up until Christmas in order to create some Autumn/Winter/Christmas make up looks. I also love this foundation, I have been using this foundation for ages and it's amazing. It looks so natural yet the coverage is amazing, it has a dewy finish which is my favourite. I love No7 products they are amazing quality and definitely worth the money.

My three favourite Revlon Lipsticks in the shades: Blushing Mauve, Wine with Everything and Love that Red - £7.99 each.

I think these lipsticks are gorgeous colours that are perfect for the winter months. The first shade Blushing Mauve is a gorgeous pinky nude colour perfect as an everyday lipstick shade as it's so natural looking. The second shade is Wine with Everything, this shade is a pinky red colour, this is a really nice colour that I have been wearing everyday for the last few weeks, I really like this shade as it's not to bright but perfect for a natural lip look. The third shade is Love that Red, I love this lipstick, this shade is a gorgeous red lipstick shade, I think this would be perfect to create a dramatic red lip look. 

Rimmel Lasting Finish Lipstick in the shade Alarm - £4.99.

I bought this lipstick a few months ago because I thought the shade was absolutely gorgeous, its a dark red colour and I think it will be perfect for the Winter months. I am really impressed with the quality of this lipstick because the colour lasts all day. I definitely want to buy more lipsticks from Rimmel as the quality is amazing!

Bare Minerals Colour Extravaganza Eye Look 2 - READY TO SHINE!

Hello everyone, I hope you are all having a fantastic weekend! This week has been amazing, on Wednesday my blog got over 200 pageviews, I honestly can't believe that it was read that many times in one day, it's unbelievable! Yesterday I created an amazing make up look, which I really liked, it was bit of different look for me, but I really liked it. I used my Bare Minerals Colour Extravaganza palette to create this gorgeous eye make up look, if you haven't read the other posts I have created about this palette and the first look I created  with this palette then check them out now.

The products used:

No 7 Instant Radiance Foundation in Cool Vanilla, I love this foundation, it's perfect for creating a gorgeous dewy make up look, I have been using this foundation for ages and I love it. 

I then used my Bare Minerals Highlighter in The Magic Moment, Bronzer in The Ocean View and Blusher in The Natural High. I am loving using these products together at the minute, I think they look amazing! These products are from the Bare Minerals Gorgeously Glowing palette and the Beautifully Bronzed palette which I have done a Blog post on previously.

For my lips, I used one of my favourite lipsticks, a Revlon one in the shade Wine with Everything, this is a gorgeous red colour, I think this lipstick is perfect for this time of year.

For my eyes, I used three shades from the Bare Minerals Colour Extravaganza palette in order to create the perfect "Ready to Shine" eye make up look. I chose to create the "Ready to Shine" look which includes the eye shadows Chart Topper, Admire and Couture. These shades are perfect to create a subtle green smoky eye, they are quite earthy shades so perfect if you are wanting to create an natural smoky eye. I used my Bare Minerals Tapered Shadow and Crease Eye Shadow Brush to create this eye make up look. I then used my Benefit Roller Lash Mascara on my lashes, I love this mascara because its perfect for creating length and volume. I like to use this mascara when I'm going out because it creates a dramatic eye look.

Cheshire Oaks Outlet Purchases: MAC Face and Body Foundation and Clinique Skincare Products

Hiya everyone, I hope you are all having a fantastic week, I'm so sorry I haven't been uploading regularly recently, I am hoping to go back to my schedule of posting on a Saturday next week. Last week, I went to the Cheshire Oaks outlet because I went to an open day at Chester University on Saturday so I thought going to Chester on Friday would be good as I was able to have a little shopping trip. I went to the Cheshire Oaks Outlet and I visited the Cosmetics Company Store which is where I bought a new foundation and some new skincare products. 

The first product I bought was MAC's Face and Body Foundation, I have never used any MAC products before and I have been wanting to try this foundation for ages. There wasn't a massive choice of shades of foundation so I ended up getting one that was a little bit too light for me, but I used it the other day and I have to say it looks really natural looking. I am going to be using this foundation in my future make up blog posts so I will keep you updated on my thoughts and opinions on this foundation. I got the Face and Body Foundation in the shade N2, I also love the size of the foundation as its 50ml so I think this is going to last me ages, this foundation only cost me £15.50 which is £6.50 cheaper than it usually is in other shops so I would definitely recommend going to a shop like the Cosmetics Company Store if you are wanting to find a bargain.

I also bought some skincare products from Clinique, I am always wanting to try new skincare products and someone recommended Clinique's skincare range to me a few months ago so I've been wanting to try the new products for ages. I'm glad I got this gift set because the products are so gentle and make my skin feel amazing! The skincare gift set includes: Liquid Facial Soap, Clarifying Lotion, Dramatically Different Moisturising Lotion and a 7 Day Facial Scrub Cream, I used all of these products yesterday and I really like them, I was thinking of doing a post on them in a few weeks to see if I still like them and if I like them better than any other skincare products I have used previously. This gift set was also a really good price, it was £22.50 which is £7.50 cheaper than it usually is in other shops. 

Please comment/tweet me if there are any MAC or Clinique or any other make up products you would like to recommend xxxxx

My Updated Skincare Routine

Hello everyone, I hope you are all having a fantastic week, I can't believe its been 10 days since my last blog post, I've just been so busy but now I have organised my time better so I'm going to post another blog post at the weekend as well. Before I get in to this blog post, I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who reads my blog, I hit 7,000 page views last week and I honestly can't believe it, if someone had said this time last year I wouldn't of believed them. Thank you all so much for the support xxxxxxx

Today I am going to do my skincare routine I have at the moment, I love looking after my skin and making sure I take all of my make up off everyday so I'm going to give you a little insight into my latest skincare routine. 

First of all, before I talk about my skincare routine, I just wanted to say I have been really busy recently so sometimes I have been using make up wipes to remove my make up, I know they aren't the best thing to use but I always have a pack next to my bed to make sure I take all my make up off before bed because removing your make up is so important! I really like these ones from ASDA at the minute, I have a pack of the Sensitive ones and a pack of ones with Tea Tree, I love these wipes, they feel so gentle on my face. 

My Latest Skincare Routine:

To begin with I use the Garnier Micellar Cleansing water, I have been using this for ages, I love it. It's amazing at removing my make up even waterproof mascara, its also really gentle which is good because I have sensitive skin. One bottle lasts absolutely ages, I'm so impressed!! I then use the Simple's Purifying Cleansing Lotion which is incredible, my face feels so smooth after using this, I love Simple's products, they are one of my favourite skincare brands. After that I use my favourite Toner which is the Body Shop's Tea Tree Skin Clearing Toner, this is one of the best toners I have ever used, I would also recommend the Simple facial toner because that is really nice as well. Then I use moisturiser, I actually have two favourite moisturisers which I switch between: Simple's Hydrating Light Moisturiser, this is a very light moisturiser, perfect for sensitive skin and Boots Essentials Moisturising Cream, I bought this at the airport before I went on holiday and to begin with I wasn't sure whether I liked it or not because it's a really thick and creamy moisturiser but I really like it, its so gorgeous and moisturising. 

What are your favourite skincare products??? Comment below xxx

Deciding on UNIVERSITY? My opinion

Hello everyone I hope you are having a good weekend, today I thought I would do a different kind of blog post about something that people like me have to do at this time of year which is deciding on whether or not to apply to go to University and what university to go to. I have been thinking about going to University since the beginning of year 12 and now I'm in year 13 I am starting to apply for University and get my UCAS application completed. I am someone who has done a lot of research about what university I would like to go to, the accommodation, what the course is like and how far away it is from home.

Not sure whether to go or not?
Before I went to the Summer school at Edge Hill University in August 2015, I'm going to be honest I wasn't 100% sure that I wanted to go to University so I decided to go to Edge Hill and see what it was like, I spent three days doing Business studies which is one of my favourite subjects, I made loads of new friends and I really liked the campus so I would definitely recommend going to a summer school and an open day at a University you are interested in and want to go to. I went to a UCAS open day in April 2015 and I thought it was so good, there was over 100 universities there so I got the chance to speak to loads of representatives from different Universities and find out more about the courses I wanted to look at and this helped me to narrow down which Universities I want to go and have a look at.

Finding out what the course is like?
Personally, I am looking at courses which are more coursework based than exams because I prefer coursework, I would definitely recommend looking at the course you want to do at the University you want to go to on the Unistats website, I find this website so helpful for giving important course information. I also want to do a year abroad therefore I am looking at Universities that you can study abroad at as I just think being able to study abroad would be such an amazing experience.

Finding out what the accommodation you want is like?
I know that whichever University I choose to go to I want an en suite room, when I stayed at Northumbria University we stayed in halls with a shared bathroom and it was okay but I preferred the accommodation I stayed at, at Edge Hill University because it was en suite. I have an en suite at home and I love having my own bathroom so I know I will definitely be paying a little bit more for an en suite room.

How far away do you want to go?
Personally, I do want to leave home to go to University but I don't want to go too far away from my friends and family. I think the furthest I am looking is about 3 hours away from where I live at the moment because I do want to gain more independence but I still want to be able to pop home every now and then.

Bare Minerals Colour Extravaganza Eye Look 1 - READY TO PARTY!!

Hello everyone, I hope you're all having a fantastic weekend. Today I thought I would create a make up look with my new Bare Minerals eye shadow palette that I did a blog post on a few weeks ago. There were four eye looks suggested in the booklet that came with the Bare Minerals Colour Extravaganza palette therefore I have decided I'm going to do one a month. I've also got some really good ideas for blog posts starting in January so make sure you keep an eye out for those. 

The products used:
L'Oreal Infallible 24HR Matte Foundation in 12 Natural Rose, I never used to be a big fan of matte foundations but I love this foundation. I wear it everyday and the coverage is amazing!
Barry M Chisel Cheeks Contour Kit, I chose to use the dark brown shade today to make the look, look a bit more dramatic. I normally wear the medium brown shade as a bronzer every day.
Jenny Packham Bright Pink Lipstick, I love this lipstick, it's one of my favourite shades, I think it's brilliant to brighten up any look. I then used my Bare Minerals Marvelous Moxie Double Ended Lip Gloss in Stunner.

For the eye look, I used three shades from the Bare Minerals Colour Extravaganza, I really like this palette because its a convertible eye shadow palette so you can choose your favourite shades from the 12 in the large palette and take 3 of them out with you in the convertible palette. This is so good if you are going on a night out or to a party as it means you can take your favourite shades out with you in a small compact palette. I chose to create the "Ready to party" look which include the shades, Shiver, Elixir and Mystify, these shades are absolutely gorgeous! I created a sophisticated violet eye make up look and I used my Bare Minerals Eye shadow brush which I love!! I also used my favourite mascara which is the Bare Minerals Flawless Definition mascara, this is an amazing mascara because it automatically makes my eye lashes look more dramatic and defined.

Thanks so much for reading!

Family Holiday August 2015 - MALTA

Hiya everyone, I hope you are all having a fantastic weekend. I hit 6,000 page views this week and I honestly want to thank everyone who reads my blog, it means so much to me.
A few weeks ago I went to the beautiful island of Malta, Malta is an absolutely gorgeous island and I fell in love with it instantly. I went from the 20th - 27th August and the weather was incredible, it was over 40 degrees every day so it was really hot but we were at the top of the island and there was a lovely cool breeze from the sea which was perfect. We stayed at the Paradise Bay Resort Hotel in Cirkewwa which was a lovely hotel, the rooms were very clean and spacious, we had a sea view which was absolutely gorgeous as we could see the glossy turquoise sea glistening with the island of Comino in the distance.

The hotel we stayed at had this displayed on the wall in the lobby, I just loved it, the more I got to explore Malta and Gozo I loved them, I would love to go back to Malta in the future and visit new places.

This is the gorgeous picture I took from the balcony of our room as you can see the sea looks incredible, it was so clear, I loved it.

We went for a walk one night and I took this gorgeous picture of the sea with the hotel I stayed at in the background.

In Malta we had two days where we went and visited places, one day we went to Gozo and another day we went to Valetta and the rest of our days were spent relaxing by the pool. The hotel we stayed at had 3 outdoor swimming pools and an indoor swimming pool which was incredible, there was also loads of sun loungers and it didn't matter what time you went down to the pool, there was always sun loungers free which I thought was great.

My visit to Gozo

Our hotel was only 5 minutes away from the ferry terminal which was amazing as it was dead handy for us, one day we got the ferry to Gozo, it only took about 20 minutes to get there which was great. Gozo is a beautiful island with gorgeous buildings as well as the picturesque views of the sea. When we arrived in Gozo we didn't really know what tourist things we should do therefore we chose to do a Sightseeing Tour and it was fabulous. We saw loads of gorgeous places such as the capital city Victoria which was beautiful. The Sightseeing Tour was definitely worth the money because we got to see lots of the island, the tour went to about 16 places I think and all of them were gorgeous! We also got to find out a lot about the history of Gozo which was amazing because I didn't really know much about it so I found it really interesting.

This is a picture of my ticket to Gozo, it was only 4.65 euro for a return journey which I thought was an amazing price. Below are more photos of Gozo including the beautiful churches and temples we saw.

I also wanted to take a gorgeous picture of the beautiful landscapes and views I saw, these two were some of my favourite pictures I took, I love the amazing view. I would definitely recommend Gozo to anyone who visits Malta because it is such a beautiful island.

My visit to Valletta

Valletta is an absolutely gorgeous city, I took this photo when I was walking through the city. Our hotel was quite far away from Valletta so we got a bus from Cirkewwa to Valletta which was amazing because it only cost 2 euros each and the buses had really good air conditioning, the buses were Arriva buses which we thought was really funny because we use Arriva buses in the UK.

 I took these photos in Valletta as you can see the buildings are absolutely gorgeous! I thought Valetta was such a nice city, it wasn't too busy like other European cities I've been to, it had a really chilled and relaxed vibe. We did a bit of shopping in Valletta which was great as well as having lunch in a lovely little cafe which was gorgeous.

I hope you have all enjoyed this post, Malta was an amazing place and I will treasure the memories of this holiday forever. 

Thanks for reading!
