When I get asked questions like: "What career do you want?", "where do you see yourself in 10 years?", "What are your hobbies?". I don't freeze, I actually have an answer. I've always been creative. Media and English Literature were my favourite subjects at school. I can see myself working in a creative industry. Don't get me wrong, I'm currently a 20 year old women working in admin, but hey! We all have to earn a living somehow!

I enjoy photography, I'm always taking photos. Photos of different scenery's, photos of food, people, friends, family and just things I think look interesting. I'm always on tumblr and pinterest as I think they're a wicked platform to share and post photos that your "friends" on Facebook might not give two shits about. I love that there are more and more creative outlets for people these days and I think it's healthy to express yourself.

The Lourve, Paris, August 2015

I love travelling, I hope to spend my 20's visiting and experiencing new opportunities in different countries. The thought of me staying in London my entire life honestly terrifies me. The world is huge! Why wouldn't you want to see parts of it?! I hope to do some solo travelling next year. As much as I love hanging out with my friends in a foreign country, I like the idea of doing what I want when I want. I've always loved the idea of being independent and doing things for myself and not just to please others.

I was never really into makeup and fashion at a young age. I was a really late bloomer in that department. I remember telling my mum that I only wanted to wear clear mascara because I would look "so weird" if I wore black mascara, oh how naive I was! I was a bit of a tom boy till about 13, didn't really have any fashion sense and was either in a tracksuit or just a plain t-shirt and jeans. When I hit 16 going on 17, it was then I discovered makeup and wanted to dress a bit nicer, and started discovering how to dress for my body shape. A lesson I'm still trying to figure out...if it looks good on the model who isn't the same size as you, 9/10 it will not the identical on you, but try it on, but don't be discouraged if it doesn't work out...onto the next shop!

I follow so many makeup "guru's" on YouTube and Instagram these days, I think to pull off a strong makeup look it's all about confidence. I wore a strong red lip to an Adele concert last month and almost rubbed it off before I left..."Do I look like I'm trying too hard?", "This doesn't suit me at all does it?" my subconscious was telling me, but then I came to the realisation of "FUCK IT". People have done a lot worse! I took a selfie, posted that on instagram and walked out the door. I'm still trying to find what makeup styles work for me, but as it stands I think the whole "natural look" suits me best...a nude lip with a pink undertone polishes any every day look.

I've created this platform for people to be able to express their own opinions honestly and openly, me included...if you want to be apart of this new "thing", please get in touch with me!
