In the space of two days I've been nominated 3 times for the Liebster Award! This is such a compliment so thank you Emily, Alana and Laura! Unfortunately this post would get extremely long and boring if I answered all your questions so I'm just going to answer Laura's as she was first to nominate :)

Laura's 11 Questions

1) Why did you start blogging?
I love reading blogs and have spare time so thought I'd just go for it!

2) Who's your celebrity crush?
I actually don't have one.. sorry to be boring.

3) If someone was going to make a film of your life, what actress would play you?
Emma Roberts or Leighton Meester.

4) Favourite make up brand?
How can you choose one?! Seems like I use a different one for everything. 


5) Favourite food?
Do sweets and chocolate count? I have such a sweet tooth and could live on dark choc digestives.

6) What's your signature style?
I don't think it has a name. I wear whatever takes my fancy, normally shorts in summer and tights, boots and dresses in winter. I'll only ever wear something if it's comfy.

7) Favourite memory?
The summer I finished sixth form. It was spent going to the beach, moors, swimming and BBQing and it never seemed to rain that year. After that everyone has gone their own ways and I've lost touch with quite a few people.

8) What's your dream holiday destination?

I've always wanted to go to America and maybe do route 66.

9) If you got stranded on a desert island, what 3 things would you take with you?
My dog, an axe, Bear Grylls. 

10) If you could be any animal what would it be?

A bird. They can travel quickly, see everything, and as an added bonus I could shit on people I didn't like!

11) Who's your favourite fictional character?
There're too many. Spike from Notting Hill and Smithy from Gavin and Stacey are two of my faves, and of course Bridget Jones. Funnily enough I seem to prefer TV and film characters rather than those in books.


That's me done. I'm nominating the following lovely people to recieve the award:
