Life through my lens #11 (Updates!)

Hello everyone,

Well it has been far, far too long since I last sat down and blogged. What with being on holiday, working and  seeing my friends and family I have been beyond busy, but in  the very best way. I though about going through these instagram collages and captioning them as usual, but a) that would take you an age to read and b) I think these picture speak for themselves and sum up a lot of my summer. In terms of updates I have a lot to tell you all!

Ok so first thing, I now have glasses. I need them for distance and for when my eyes feel all tired, meaning when/if I learn to drive I will have to wear them, I might do a post wearing them at some point! I've also been loving work, everyone there is so lovely and I feel like  proper part of the team now. I had a really lovely week in Wales (it didn't rain constantly like the forecast said) and it was so good to catch up with my family.I did try to take some outfit photos, but only one has turned out half decent so we shall see if I actually post them!

One fab thing that happened lately was finally getting to meet Lily! We had the best day in Birmingham and I have a full post on it coming soon.

 And the thing that has given many a sixteen year old a sleepless night, GCSE results. I am chuffed to bits to tell you that I achieved an A* in French, Textiles, English literature and English language, an A in Science, History, Humanities and Drama and a B in Maths! I really couldn't be happier with my results and am honestly still in a sate of shock. It is so satisfying to realize that hard work pays off and all that effort was worth it! I hope you all got the results you were hoping  for, let me know! I'll be starting Sixth form in September, studying English Literature, French, Psychology and Government and politics- I do and don't want to start in equal measures. 

I have to add that this summer has been one of the best I have ever had, I've done so much and just loved every week, I can't really express how much fun I've had and the people I've shared it with have just been the best.

I'm going to do my best to get back to blogging regularly, I've missed you all!

Hello everyone, it's time for another little update,

Before the Easter break, I had two practical exams; one in Textiles and the other in Drama, thankfully, I feel like they both went really well! I had worked super hard for both, so I guess now it's just a long wait until results day! Did any of you have any exams? Let me know how you got on! Most recently I had my birthday (I'll stop going on about it soon I promise!) It really was lovely, ans thank you all for your sweet messages :) In blogging news, I am so so close to 600 followers now, totally crazy for be to even conceive that number, exciting stuff!

Hi everyone, I hope you've had a good Saturday,

Mine has been spent doing homework and tiding my room - fun non? I am going to Nando's tomorrow though, so that will make up for it!

This update has a distinctly red theme which I think makes it pretty aesthetically pleasing! This goes back to Christmas and new year which were both lovely, but that also means the return to school which I can't say was quite so thrilling, it could be worse, but this is my last full term so time is of the essence. 

Christmas eve calls for new pajamas and a hot water bottle <3// Snapping away for the blog// Love the Lush Star Light Star Bright bath melt (review here) so pretty!// We bought a blender, so of course we had a make milkshakes//  I'm actually addicted to homemade popcorn- so good//  Reading Company's Paris issue *dreams dreams dreams*//  Me and the sister on the train to London//  Isabella blow: Fashion Galore! was amazing- would you like to see a post on it?// Krispy Kreme is what dreams are made of

So that's what I've been up to lately - not a bad start to January! I am getting increasingly excited about my prom, it's still not until summer but I can't help it! If you know any good prom dress shops in London or the Bucks area or any good places online please do let me know :)

Hello everyone, I hope you're well, The big day is quickly approaching, but I thought I'd do a catch up post to fill you in with what's been going down in There's something about Alice land.

I do like writing these posts, it give me a second to stop, write and really appreciate how lucky I am, especially at Christmas, I think it's at this time that we really need to be thankful for what we have and help others :) I am getting incredibly excited now, tomorrow I am going to be doing lots of baking and more Christmas film watching (standard)

I hope your all happy and healthy, let me know what you've been up to lately!

Hello my loves, I hope life is treating you well. I for one have been all over the place at the moment, stressed is not the word! But right now it's time to take a look at the interesting things that have been going on lately, and not the boring school side of everything :)

So that's what's been going down with me lately, I have a week of mock exams next week, thrilling times I'm sure you'll agree, so I'm basically just doing revision and homework 24/7, boo! I have got some things to look forward too, a few of my friends have birthdays coming up so they'll be some good times then, and guess what guys? It's less than a month until Christmas!

Hi everyone, 

I, like a lot of bloggers, adore photography, and while I'm no Annie Leibovitz, to me you simply can't beat whipping out a camera (whether that be on your phone or on something far snazzier) and capturing things you love. 

I have decided to share some snaps from my life lately with you lovely lot and hope to make this far more regular; because lets face it, who doesn't love a snoop over somebodies Instagram feed or a flick through their photo albums! 

Loving dark vampy nails after months of pastels and brights//Unicorn braid selfie//playing with some of my lipsticks; tell me that doesn't look pretty!//Starbs with the sister after a day of shopping//London bound = hot chocolate, milky bar buttons and Company//London is so beautiful by night// Gorgeous new cut-out boots from new look, OOTD coming soon!//Getting ready for a birthday meal with my favourite girlies//Rainbow from my bedroom window after some crazy rain.
