Hello my lovelies,

I hope you're having a good start to the week! I'm here today to share with you my favourites new and old from January 2107...



First up to bat is my book of the month Girl Boss, by Sophia Amoruso founder and CEO of Nasty Gal Vintage. It's a biographical, business inspiration filled novel about the steps to business success and becoming a Girl Boss. It's well worth a read if you want to build your own business or if you just need some motivation to get up and make a difference! 

Next, is the Slissie. I was lucky enough to be sent one of these to test out for you guys! It's a device that helps to cut cravings and stop snacking! It's so simple and easy to use making it into my favourites this month. Check them out at www.slissie.co.uk

Then it's one of my favourite Benefit make up kits, The Bronze of Champions. This includes the amazing Hula bronzer as well as They're Real mascara and Hula lip gloss, and is on my list as it's been brightening up my winter complexion that glow of summer, while being easy to apply and beautifully packaged!

My Pandora Rose Galaxy bangle also features as I love it's simplicity and elegance. Plus it brightens and adds to any outfit. I love it. Lastly, my Jack Wills body butters have been keeping my skin fresh this winter with their floral spring scents that have set me up for next season! 

That's all for today, have a magical Monday and i'll see you soon

Hey there my lovelies, 

Last night I went to a Ceilidh and my initial thought was what the hell is one of those and what do I wear? Fear not, i'm here to spread light on the subject and give you the insight of what to wear and how amazing one actually is...



So a Ceilidh (pronounced Kayleigh) is a huge party with music and dancing, but the big difference is you're taught all the dances as you go along. This may sound scary or really dull but it's actually so fun and funny trying to learn and remember lots of different dances of different styles and seeing everyone around you move! 

Next question... what to wear! Unlike the club this isn't the time for a tight dress and sky high stilettos, trust me you will rip your dress or fall over or if you're me both. So I chose the more practical but still stylish red winter florals skater dress from jack wills, with a statement necklace and chunky black heels that I could dance the night away in. 

If you get the chance head down to a Ceilidh with your girls and dance the night away with music, cocktails and country dance steps!

See you Soon

Hey there my lovelies,

As some of you know i'm a musical theatre performer and a fitness freak and my favourite activity to combine these two is dance. As well as being a dancer i'm also lucky enough to be a signed model with ModelAgency, leading me to have another fantastic shoot with the talented Kirsten Hollister yesterday. She's a professional photographer whose local to Ironbridge in Shropshire who takes amazing family, actors or dance portraits. 


This is one of the amazing silhouette images from yesterday. 
Any of you can dance and it's an fantastic day to get fit and work out while using every muscle in your body, as well as having fun. If you're struggling with your new years resolutions get yourself into a dance class at your local dance school or even a bare fit class at the gym! 

I hope this has inspired you to try something new and get dancing! Don't forget to follow me on instagram @hellolottyx and to check out Kirsten on her account @kirstenhollisterphoto.
See you Soon

Hello my lovelies, 

I've got an exclusive beauty collaboration for you! I've been lucky enough to work with Blush Sparkle and try some of their hyper-pigmented glitter make-up...


The glitters are so easy to apply just dampen your eyeshadow brush, I used the thin fluffy brush from Real Techniques, and dip into the pots then tap onto your, eyes, lips or body for that super sparkle. These are perfect for a daring night out look, a Valentines date night or just to brighten up the everyday and with festival season fast approaching it's the perfect new treat to add to your make-up collection! 

That's all for today! Remember to check Blush Sparkle out on instagram @blushsparkle and to follow me @hellolottyx as well as checking out their website www.blushbirmingham.co.uk
See you Soon

Hello my lovelies 

I'm here with a collaboration from Cherie Bumble Activewear! As you'll have seen from my Instagram @hellolottyx yesterday I received the beautiful Jaguar Jacket and Lucia Leggings, check them out...



The jacket it so lightweight and includes thumb holes which I love because it protects your hands while you're lifting or squatting weights at the gym. Plus it hugs your body and looks amazingly flattering! The leggings while not being my usual high waisted style were so comfortable to wear and workout it as well as including pockets for your phone or iPod allowing me to use my Nike Run app easily while on the treadmill! The best thing is that the two pieces compliment each other perfectly to make a stylish, sassy and practical workout look! 

Check them out at www.cheriebumble.com or on Instagram @cheriebumble! I hope you're having a great day and I shall see you soon.
