Questions I Have Been Given

1# What is your desert island makeup product?
After a long night thinking of what that would be, I came to the conclusion that it would be concealer. I am not very confident with my skin because unfortunately I don't have the best skin in the world so that would be my makeup bag staple in general.

I watch quiet a few YouTubers but the ones I watch most often are Zoella, Tanya Burr, Tyler Oakley, Jim Chapman and others but that would be a huge list.
3# One bizarre fact about yourself.
I have a very dysfunctional head sometimes- this allows me to wear hotter clothes for summer and at bit cooler clothes for winter. Is that just me? Please let me know in the comments.
4# Describe your blog!
Beauty. Fashion.Lifestyle.Fun- is in the slogan.
5# What is your dream buy?
My dream buy is a Marc Kors bag- I am love them but they are fairly expensive.
6# What is one off your wardrobe staples?
 Comfy shoes mostly flats and pumps because they are so easy to use and style.
7# What book/magazine are you reading at the moment?
I am a bit behind but oh well- the book I am currently reading and loving is the Fault in our Stars by John Green.
8# Your favourite scent?
That is the hardest question I have come across but I would say it need to be lemon & lime scents or jelly bean scents.
9# Favourite brand of clothing?
New Look and H&M are my favourite at the moment.
10# Favourite brand of makeup?
Drugstore wise is Rimmel but High end is definitely Channel
11# What is your aspirations in life- or something you really want to do?

Get Ready with Me: Playlist



I was really struggling to find something to do for this week's blog post. However, I came with this idea of making a 'Get Ready w/ Me' playlist that I have been really enjoying at the moment. There is this band in particular that I have been listening to for ages called Casual Attire.
The band is situated in Newbury, I have met the members of the band before as we used to go to the same school (just to let you know because I thought it was a cool fact). Also, I feel like their content is just amazing and you can see that they are truly passionate for what they have been doing. Now...let's get into the main purpose of this blog post.

As I can't talk much about music, I have made a playlist on my YouTube channel, which would make it easier for everybody to access. I have added all the songs that I have been listening to from the band.



I do listen to other artists but at the moment they are my favorite and with only this 4 songs I am able to get ready, and if you want to check them out, I will leave their links below so you can find then and contact them if you prefer.

Casual Attire
Facebook - Twitter - YouTube - iTunes - SoundCloud

If you are located in Newbury or any other parts of the UK and you are interested, they might have live shows coming soon.You can find any details and information in their Facebook page.

Thank you guys for reading. I hope you go and check them out and give them some extra love! Goodbye, see you next time.

What do you guys think of Casual Attire?  Leave me comments below telling me your opinions.

Tag- 20 Things About Me


I know this post might not be the most exciting but I thought you guys should get to know me a bit more...well...I mean a lot more because I don't exactly talk about my personal life or just about myself. Also, this post is something that I always wanted to do but I had other ideas but they didn't work as well as I would like but it's okay because I can always have another try and it gave me a chance of finally putting this together! Let's jump right into it. Otherwise I won't stop blabbing. 
1#What is your middle name? 
I have 2 (Eduarda  Bandeira)
2#What are your favourite subjects at school? 
Graphics and Chemistry
3#What is your favourite drink? 
I am slightly addicted to the McDonald's Mocha Frappe (I blame my friends) but I also really enjoy the Costa's Iced Tea.
4#What is your favourite song at the moment? 
I have been listening to 5 Seconds of Summer- She Looks so Perfect. This has now become my jam.
5#What is your favourite food? 
My favourite food is sushi. Despite all my friends thinking I am a total weirdo because I basically like "raw fish".
6#What is the last thing you bought? 
The last thing I purchased was some wet wipes from the Yes to Grapefruit range. They are amazing for removing makeup, brightening the skin and they are extremely affordable. 
7#Favourite book(s) of all time? 
Well...it is really hard for me because I don't ready a lot but if I had to chose it would definitely be Shadow by Michael Morpurgo and Wonder by R.J Palacio. There are great and very touching books.
8#Favourite Colour? 
Blue, not much to say really.
9#Favourite Perfume? 
Marc Jacobs Daisy because it you didn't know daisies are my favourite flowers.
10#Do you speak any other language? 
I speak 2 fluent languages, which are Portuguese (Brazil is my home country) and English (I live in the UK). However, I have been doing French lessons for 5 years now.
11#How many siblings do you have? 
I have 3 siblings. I am an in between child, not the oldest but not the youngest. 
12#What are your favourite shops? 
I love me some New Look I get most of my clothes and shoes from there. It is like my second home. But I also really like Boots and Superdrug. Just a little note, my taste changes quite often so I don't have a fixed favourite shop. 
13#When was the last time you cried? 
Probably 5 minutes ago (of laughter from YouTube videos that's for sure).
14#Favourite Blogs?
My favourite blogs are Lily Pebbles and Vivianna Does Makeup. They are just so good and I ready them every time I get a chance to.
15#Favourite Movie?
10 Things I hate About You and We're the Millers. They are both great movies and you have some great laughs and if I am right I have watched them around 3 times each.
16#Favourite TV show?
I have a mixture now. I have been watching Keeping Up with the Kardashians because it is my guilty pleasure. Also I have been watching 2 Broke Girls and Devious Maids. All of them are great. But now it makes me sound like I have nothing to do with my life, which is probably true! 
17#How tall are you?
I am 5 ft 4. If you want to be precise that is 165 cm.
18#Can you cook?
NO. If I was left alone to cook I would probably burn the house and explode things. But I'm going to start working on it. Promise.
19# Who is your favourite movie actor/actress?
Jennifer Lawrence and Joe Manganiello.
20#Where would you like to visit that you haven't been yet?
I have never been to Greece but I want to go to Mykonos (an island in Greece).
