Tag- I love summer tag


Hey guys,

Long time and no blog post. I have other things to do, so sorry about that, but now I am back and I have decided to do this tag as it not the end of summer yet. First here are some Youtube versions of this:





Now its my turn.



1. Favorite bronzer for summer?
My favorite bronzer has to be my Dior Nude Tan bronzer

2. You're relaxing in a hammock, on a tropical island. What are you sipping on? (Favorite summer drink)
That would have to be ice tea. I love ice tea so much.

3. Favorite summer lip product?
I have been obsessed about lip combos and those are my Dior Jelly Lip Pen with my Dior Addict lip gloss or I have been wearing my  Maybelline Baby Lip in Pink Punch and my Clarins Natural Lip Perfector

4. Pool or Beach?
I love sandy beaches, but I don't like pebble beaches, so I would have to say sandy beach and pool. 

5. Summer = crazy hair! What's your must-have styling product?
I find that the product that helps me the most is my Kerastase Elixir. It has lots of uses, but it also helps with crazy hair.

6. Sun bathing or fake tan?
Definitely sun bathing.

7. Favorite summer nail polish?
I have to say its Essie’s a Crewed Interest and Mint Candy Apple. 

8. Any summer traditions?
Well, I go on a beach holiday, but I guess most people do. 

9. Favorite summer scent?
I don't own this scent, but I always sniff in and that is Marc Jacobs Daisy, but from the ones I own it has to be Chloe. I am not sure the actual name, but it's green.

10. Favorite BBQ food?
I love corn on the cob, sausages and chicken. 

11. What's your favorite summer-proof product?
I would have to say my Baby lips, as that also has SPF, so it also protects your lips. 

12. Any summer vacation plans this year? No plans? Tell us about your dream summer trip!

Well I went on beach holiday. My dream holiday would be in the Caribbean's . 


So, that is the end of the I love summer tag. I hope you enjoyed it. I am currently trying out a few of the products that I will be reviewing on my blog. So, keep your eyes peeled for those.

Becky's Book Review - Meet Me At The Cupcake Cake Cafe


Hello Everybody,

Today I am going to share with you my thoughts on a book I just finished.



Plot 

Issy Randall can bake. No, more than that – Issy can create stunning, mouth-wateringly divine cakes. After a childhood spent in her beloved Grampa Joe’s bakery she has undoubtedly inherited his talent. So when she’s made redundant from her safe but dull City job, Issy decides to seize the moment and open up her own cafĂ©. It should be a piece of cake, right?

Wrong. As her friends point out, she has trouble remembering where she left her house keys, let alone trying to run her own business. But, Issy is determined. Armed with recipes posted to her from Grampa, and with her local bank manager fighting her corner, Issy attempts to prove everyone wrong. Following your dreams is never easy and this is no exception. Can Issy do it?

My Thoughts 

I really enjoyed this book it is a great girly chick lit. I would definitely read the next book which is  "Christmas at the Cupcake Cafe". It also has a bit of a romantic story in this book. I would definitely read more books by Jenny Colgan. I loved the way she wrote this book. 

Overall this is a great book. 

I would definitely recommend it.
