Get Fit For Summer | Little Miss E
So this summer I'm actually attempting to get that summer body that we all want. These are a few tips on how you can do it too and we can go through the struggle together.
1. The 30 day ab challenge
This is an app which basically gives you a little workout every day for 30 days to help you get toned. You only have to do 4 exercises each day and the workout just gets a little harder as you go along. I'm also going on holiday in about 30 days so I have just enough time.
2. Think about how much happier you'll be when you achieve your goal
When you're looking in the fridge for a lil something sweet just remind yourself of your goal and maybe pick up an apple instead. Keep your goal in mind always and stay determined to reach it.
3. DRINK WATER
Water is so important when you're trying to be healthy. It helps your skin, your health and stops you from getting dehydrated. A lot of people don't like drinking water and I would say that if you are one of those people, try adding something like raspberries or blueberries to a bottle or glass of cold water. This makes the taste better and makes it a little less boring.
4. Stop eating when your full
When you're full, don't keep eating just for the sake of it. Often you'll feel hungry when you're actually just thirsty so no matter how much you eat you'll still feel the same. If you feel peckish, have a drink and you might feel that the "hunger" is gone
5. EXERCISE
As well as maybe doing the 30 day ab challenge you can get your own little workout in if you want. It doesn't have to be boring, maybe go jogging with some friends, have a chat and just take it easy. You'll be exercising without even realising
So I hope some of my advice was slightly helpful to some of you and that you enjoyed this somewhat inspirational post

Current Obsessions | Little Miss E
Today I'm going to be sharing some of my current loves with you, I'm going to be talking about everything from beauty to food to people so lets get into it...
Lush Grass Shower Gel
I got a bottle of this for christmas and recently bought another large bottle of it, it smells so lovely and fresh, kind of like plants... The smell also lasts for ages on your skin so I love it
Lush King Of Skin
This beautiful little crown has been my savior lately. Its basically a moisturiser in a bar form, it leaves your skin feeling so nice and soft. It also smells of vanilla and cocoa butter which is a bonus. I would recommend it for dry skin but it doesn't agree with everyone.
Instagram has been my go-to app for a while and I'm so addicted to it. My themed account is linked with my other social medias (bit of cheeky self-promo there) and I've just been posting so much and I practically live on instagram to be honest.
Recently I have also been loving We Heart It, I get my pictures for my themed instagram and sometimes for my tumblr (which is also linked above) from the app and its so good for finding pictures for anything really. Everyone should get this app...plus its free so why not?
Maybeline Lash Sensational Mascara
I have no words for this mascara, just very much love. All I can say is go and buy it because you will not regret it. Its supposed to be a dupe for the Benefit Roller Lash so if you can't bring yourself to pay out for that one, this one is an amazing drugstore option.
The Floral Youtube Community
I love pretty much every youtuber in the floral community and all they're channels are so amazing and professional considering they're all still teenagers. They have inspired me to want to start a youtube channel and I love watching all their videos. My favourites are Floral Princess (Anastasia), Lilly Mae, QuishaRose (Quisha), Danielle Carty, Floral Ella (Ella) and Floral Chloe (Chloe).
Inside No. 9
This is a British TV show on BBC 2 on Thursdays and its so good. Its hard to explain because there is no storyline that connects the episodes, they all just occur inside number 9.
So thats it really, I'll probably do an April faves aswell so look out for that and I'll see you very soon!

Where On Earth Have I Been? | Little Miss E
Well hello there!
I haven't blogged in a while and I have missed it very much. My blog may look different because I've changed the colour scheme and the layout a bit, I think it looks a lot more minimalist now and I really like it. I don't really have an excuse for not blogging except my lack of motivation and inspiration. Expect a lot more from me in the coming weeks! I'm also going on holiday soon so there is a big chance that I'll be doing a big snazzy travel post about that. Photography is something that I want to bring into my blog more so I'll be doing a lot more of that. I'm about to pre-write a few posts and I'll just post them whenever I feel like it really.
Anyway I mustn't ramble so I'm going to leave you all to get on with your day

Coming back to my blog? | Little Miss E
Hello loves
So as you know I've taken a break from blogging because I've been thinking about staring a youtube channel and also trying to sort out my themed instagram. (@pxstelella if you wondered...) I have missed my blog though but I want to make it better. I'm going to make it more about photography and beauty. I think it could do with a complete makeover and if any of you know where I can get good templates please let me know because I always struggle to find them.
My blog wont be up and running again straight away especially if I decide to start youtube. I'll update you guys in the next week or so. I hope you don't mind this happening.

Time for a break? | Little Miss E
Hello loves!
Recently I've felt very uninspired to write blog posts and I think its time for a break. I feel like I'm posting for the sake of it at the moment and all my posts are slightly rushed and pointless. Hopefully I'll be back with more inspiration in a few months!

Be Happy, Be Bright, Be You! | Little Miss E
Hello loves!
I'm going to do a post about inspiration and following your heart today. I think this is a big subject for some people and it is for me as well. Self-confidence issues are everywhere nowadays and so many people miss out on things because of their fears.
Last night at my school they had an event call Gig Night and I really wanted to perform at it. About a week before I was not on the list of acts even though I thought I would be and I was incredibly close to just quitting and not bothering, but I didn't. I went and sorted it, I got a song and a guitarist and practiced and practiced in the two days before the gig. And I did it. I got up on stage and sung my song in front of the crowd and had the time of my life. I was nervous but I overcame my fear and I'm really proud of myself. I think that experience taught me to work for what I want and put the effort in, even if most of me doesn't want to.
Sometimes you have to go with your heart instead of your head, don't over think. Go for it, it will be worth it. Even if it doesn't work out, its not the end of the world. At least you would have tried. Also never let anyone tell you that you can't do something. If you want it, you can do it. People only put others down because they're jealous, because they could never even think about doing what you're doing.
Anyway that's my thoughts! I hope this inspired you...maybe? Slightly?

Polargram! | Little Miss E
Hello loves!
Today I'm going to talk about a website which I love and I don't think many people have heard of.
Today I'm going to talk about a website which I love and I don't think many people have heard of.
So Polargram is a website where you can login to your instagram and print off polaroids, canvases and all different things. I got 12 polaroids for £6 and delievery is completely free. They arrived in little cardboard box which even had a little packet of sweets inside which I thought was a really nice touch. The pictures are such good quality and were exactly what I wanted. You can buy sets of either 12, 24 or 48 and the prices range from £6 to £12 which I think is really reasonable. I was so impressed with the customer service and the overall concept of this website. I would definitely recommend it to all of you!

February Favourites | Pastel Ella
Hello loves!
So its favourites time again and this month I don't have too much to talk about...
Beauty
Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation - Ivory
I would highly recommend this foundation for teenagers because it looks really nice and dewy on the skin and doesn't cake up. Its not really high coverage but that's what I like about it.
Maybeline Lash Sensational Mascara

Maybeline Lash Sensational Mascara
I bought this randomly at the start of February when it was new and I've heard so many people rave about it since. It's such an amazing wand and formula and packaging and all-round mascara. The brush is similar to the falsies but a bit bigger.
Revlon Lip Butter - Pink Lemonade
I got this for christmas and didn't wear it too much but I've recently got into wearing it to school and I love it. There are hints of peach but its mainly just a nudey colour and its so pretty.
Batiste Dry Shampoo - Brunette
This dry shampoo used to be so annoying to me but I actually love it now. It doesn't leave white powder in your hair (because its brown) and it gives you so much volume. I use it most days when I don't wash my hair.
Skincare
Lush Catastrophy Cosmetic Face Mask
I picked up a tester of this last time I was in Lush because they didn't have the full size and I've fallen in love. It's a blueberry mask that helps to keep blemishes away and give your skin a healthy glow. It really worked for me and I would recommend it.
Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Cream
This has been something I wanted to try for a long time and I finally picked it up from amazon in January. I use it mainly for my lips because my lips get really dry. Its also great for dry patches on the face as well though.
Fashion
Topshop Joni Jeans
At the start of this month I bought a pair of black Joni jeans and I have worn them nearly every day since. I wanted them for so long and I'm so happy I finally have them. They're super high-waisted but they're still really comfy. I got them in a 28 waist and 32 leg if you were wondering...
Topshop Coat
Everyone and their mother seems to have one of these coats and I don't care if I look like a sheep (in two ways) but I love mine so much. I wear it every day to school and its not great in the rain but its so lovely and warm.
Drinks
Drink Me Chai Latte
Music
Hozier - Take Me To Church
Rihanna, Kanye West and Paul McCartney - FourFiveSeconds
Taylor Swift - 1989 (album)
Sia - Elastic Heart
Trouble - Iggy Azalea ft. Jennifer Hudson
On My Own - Les Miserables soundtrack

So that's it for my first Q&A, let me know if you'd like me to do more of these, maybe monthly?

RANT, is there anybody there? | Pastel Ella
Well, hello loves
So lately I haven't been loving my blog. I started writing my February Favourites yesterday and planning when I was going to post it. I then thought about when I could take the pictures for it and I stopped and thought, what is the point? No one reads it anyway. I know I get 1 or 2 views on each post but I'm bored of that now. I'm kind of just bored of my blog in general. Its probably my fault that no one reads it but either way, I'm thinking about stopping it. When you first start a blog you expect so much and for so many people to read it and comment and everything but sometimes that just doesn't happen. So if you like and read my blog please leave a comment so I know if there are even a few people who do.
Thank you
