I-Tunes Festival With Jessie J!

Today I wanted to talk to you about something I have always wanted to do and was lucky enough to get to go to last week. Of course that is the I-tunes Festival. Every year since the I-tunes Festival started I've applied for tickets and only won once which was for a band who I wasn't into so at the time I didn't end up going. 

The older I get, the more music influences my day to day life... so when my friend told me she had won tickets for Jessie J at the I-tunes Festival and invited me to go I was super excited! We arrived at the venue and had to wait around for an hour to be let inside, once we got inside we were directed to the top of The Roundhouse. We could not of had a better view from where we were standing. I had never been to The Roundhouse before however I knew it was an iconic venue and was blown away by the structure, sound quality and intimacy. 

This was my second time in seeing Jessie J live and she was just as incredible if not better then before. It is such an experience to be able to witness such talent in such an intimate setting and I always appreciate the smaller shows that such big artists do. 

Jessie performed a range of old and new song's. One of my favourite moments of the show was when she came to the front of the stage with her guitarist and did a small acoustic set with just her and a guitar. For me acoustic music is definitely my favourite, the raw, real, emotion it portrays gives the lyrics more essence and feeling then say a studio version.

You can watch some of my I-tunes Festival experience here. 

You can also Pre-Order Jessie's third album Sweet Talker on I-Tunes!

Live life and chase your dreams.

See you Thursday!

Monthly Favourites | September 2014

Where has this last month gone, it's the end of September already... which means another monthly favourites blog post for you all to enjoy. 

Make Up and Hair Products

So firstly this month I wanted to talk make up and hair products, as I went to my half sister’s wedding last weekend which was a beautiful experience. So with this event coming up I thought it was only right that I did some research on make up. I do not usually wear make up but knew I had to dress up and make an effort for this occasion. I watched a few beauty video’s and had seen a particular product reviewed and advertised a lot over the web and that was this Rimmel foundation. I have found this foundation has good coverage and have loved it so far.

The next product I want to talk about is by Toni & Guy, which is 'label.m' hair colour sprays. During my teenage years in particular I experimented with a little funky colour in my hair and have always loved expressing myself through hair choices and being a little creative. I love my ombre hair but I was getting bored, so I decided to have a bit of an impulse buy whilst I was buying some other bits and this was the result in that. 

Southbank SAVED!!

So today I wanted to talk about something that you may or may not already know about. I previously did a blog post on the LLSB campaign as it was something I felt strongly about. The LLSB campaign was about the preserving and keeping a part of London's urban history... that being the Southbank. As you can tell by the title I am happy to announce that Southbank has been SAVED and we have won the campaign to keep our place to play and the history. 

After 17 months of campaigning, it is exciting to know that for the foreseeable future the long term home of British skateboarding and other urban activities has been saved. As a community and generation, we had the power to use a campaign for something we believed in and that lead us to save a part of history for us and future generations. I think that in itself is an incredible achievement and I am glad I was able to document, sign the petition and just be a small part of this.
