The Liebster Award |

A few weeks ago I was nominated by Sammy to do the Liebster Award! For those of you sat there thinking 'what on earth is the Liebster Award?!' as I was, it's a way of promoting your blog and connecting fellow new bloggers to eachother by passing along the nomination. Still confused? Keep reading. 

There are a few rules regarding the Liebster Award which include the following.. 

11 questions, asked by whoever nominated you, must be answered

11 new nominees must be selected by yourself

Your chosen nominees must answer a new list of 11 questions, again created by yourself

You must notify those you have nominated of their nomination 

How would you describe your style?

This is a hard one for me. I've always been really fashion focused but I've never really 'found myself' when it comes to my own personal style. I tend to fleet from one style to another depending on the season, my mood, where I am & what I have planned.

What is your favourite makeup brand?

I feel like it's hard to categorise makeup brands into 'the best' or 'my favourite'. This is because with most brands some of the products may be really good, and others may be not so good. A good example of this is Benefit. I love love love their mascaras and blushers, however after trying a number of their base products, I still haven't found any that I like or would repurchase. To try and answer the question at hand as well as I can I'm going to say Rimmel. Not because it is particularly my favourite, but because I own more Rimmel products than I do any other brand. 

Do you prefer to read books or watch films?

For me this a no brainer. I absolutely love to read. There is nothing better than finding a book you love so much you cannot put it down until you've read it cover to cover. Your own imagination is far better than any film can ever be produced which is why when you read a book and then watch the film production of the book, it never quite lives up to your expectations. 

Do you dye your hair?

Naturally my hair is as dark as it gets on the brunette spectrum and after a long winter with very little sun to lift it a few shades lighter, I decided I would take matters into my own hands and throw some dye on it in hope that I would miraculously turn into a 'mousy haired' kinda gal. No such miracle actually took place and instead I was left with coppery, bronzey locks which resembled the same texture as straw. Not quite what I was going for. Fast forward four years and I am pretty much back to my healthy, shiny 'do and will never touch hair dye again. 

What would be your dream job?

Event management, which I am currently fighting my way into. 

What is your favourite car?

Volkswagon Beetles! I hope to trade in my little Polo and get myself a beefy Beetle at some point this year. Even if it will make my already traumatic parking experiences even worse. 

If you could go anywhere in the would, where would you go?

I've been to Australia before and I would love to return, I previously traveled down the East cost, visiting Cairns, Brisban, Byron Bay and Sydney. If I returned I'd love to do the West coast and visit places like Perth and Melbourne. 

What is your favourite colour?

Grey. 

Do you prefer designer brands or high street fashion?

Highstreet fashion all the way! Like I said before I fleet between different styles and clothes so much that if I spent a lot on designer brands, I'd never get my moneys worth! 

Gold or silver jewellery? 

A bit of both, again depending on my outfit and mood. 

Do you have any pets? 

I have a very old, very loved Bassett Hound named Basil/Baz/Bowie, as well as Baz I have my own pig. I very unoriginally named her Peppa back when I first got her, she lives on a family farm and she is also quite old now. When she was younger and had litters of piglets I used to sell them and keep the profits, however now she's too old she lives the high life doing not all that much.
