we're all going on a summer holiday♡

I'm back!!! I'm really sorry for the lack of posts this month. They seem to give us lots of assessments and homework projects in the final weeks of term which is just fab. But I am planning lots of new posts in the upcoming holiday where I have more free time. But today I'm going to briefly tell you about our holiday!

We left on the last day of term and came back last Friday. The weather was so hot and the place we stayed had nearby beaches. We went swimming almost everyday and went on lots of days out. Here are a few pictures from the week :) I took more pictures but these are a few of my favourites. 

This was on the last day when I got sunburn....






Thank you for reading :) I hope you all have a brilliant summer holiday wherever you are going!

my summer bag♡

Today I have a post all about what's in my Summer bag just for those of you who want to nosey in what I carry around with me. My bag is a small light pink satchel  from Primark, they also have a pastel yellow and a light grey colour but this colour was definitely my favourite. The satchel is small and lightweight which is why I picked it because you don't want to be carrying around a really heavy bag. It's perfect for Summer walks or days at theme parks with the family etc and fits everything you would need. 



The bag has a small front pouch and inside it has a zipped compartment. 



£6 from Primark 




I always take my phone with me! You can't see it in this picture though! 
I also keep money in the zipped compartment and if I was going shopping I would take my purse. 
I take a tangle teezer which I never go anywhere without. It doesn't take up much space and is much better than carrying around a big paddle brush with a long handle. 

I take my body spray or an Impulse.
I take my favourite lip balm at the moment which is my EOS lip balm in Strawberry Sorbet. 
At the moment I have a family of spots so a concealer is very handy - especially in this weather where it has a tendency to disappear throughout the day. 
I also take my sunglasses because it is very sunny recently.
I take a Nivea stick sun block for my face which I reapply throughout the day to keep my skin protected from the sun. 
I also take a hair band just in case I need to tie my hair back. 
Lastly, I take an anti-bacterial hand wash - I find these bottles very handy for days out where you can't always get somewhere to wash your hands.
