Space Bun Tutorial

Recently I've gotten good at the art of space buns, and I wanted to go through a step by step tutorial, showing you how to do them yourself! 




I don't know if this works for short hair, because I have long hair which means most hairstyles are quite easy for me to do - sorry if this doesn't help out people with short hair!
But Miley Cyrus ^^^ seems to be able to do this hairstyle, so it might be possible.


1. Spray your hair with dry shampoo (I recommend Batiste Dry Shampoo) - this hairstyle is easier to achieve when you have day old hair, it gives it more grip and hold,

2. Brush through your hair so that there are no knots.

3. Part your hair through the middle (even if you don't have a middle-parting, or it makes you look strange)

4. Grab one side of your hair and begin brushing it up, to the top of your head, or wherever you want the buns to be. 

5. Keep holding the piece of hair and begin twisting it tightly, and twisting it into a bun shape. It should start to look like the pictures above ^^.

6. While still holding the bun, grab a hair bobble and begin tying the bun.

7. Now grab some hair grips (bobby pins), and begin putting them in to secure the bun.

8. Repeat these steps for the second bun, and you should be finished!

Your hair should end up looking like.....
this! (it was windy when I wore my hair in space buns..)



I hope this was useful!

Stress

This is probably a very deep and personal post as I've only just started writing on here again, but I wanted to talk about this because it's a reoccurring factor in my life at the moment.
It's mostly to do with school and all the deadlines there are for very important pieces of work...
I keep getting lots of work to do for various subjects, for example I have to finish an essay about Romeo and Juliet, I have History revision pages to make, Artwork to finish etc. And I just feel like I don't have any time to finish any of it, I do have to admit that I procrastinate (put off work of high importance) quite a lot when it comes to school work, which probably isn't the best idea. But I still do it - I honestly have no clue why as well which is frustrating. Ironically, writing this post is me putting off my work too. God I'm an idiot. 
I guess that I put off this important stuff because I don't like all the pressure, but then I'm a hypocrite because this leads to me getting even more stressed out, and the pressure just piles on.
This leads to me getting really sad and depressed, which I then take out on my friends (mainly my bae though :/ ), which makes me feel even worse.

Wow I'm just ranting here aren't I?!?

Anyway, I just wanted to know if anyone else felt the same way sometimes, and had any suggestions on how to calm down and relax, and just de-stress (if that's a word..)

Shopping with the bestie!

Yesterday I went shopping with my best friend for a good catch up and to find some good bargains and cute clothes! I succeeded in finding just those!

Firstly, we went into Topshop, because it's my favourite shop at the moment and there was a sale on...

I managed to find this cutie, it's a high-neck ribbed, long sleeve top, I got it in the colour green, although it does seem more like a dark olive shade. On the receipt it calls it a 'jersey', but it doesn't look like one...oh well. I bought this for £12, which may not sound like much of a bargain, but it really is one, in terms of Topshop (as they aren't known for being the cheapest shop!!)

I like this top because of the ribbed detailing on it, the top itself looks slightly boring at first but the detailing it has does give it a little extra pizazz. As Spring has come about (I think), this top is perfect because the material isn't too thick or too thin, and if it is a little chilly, then you have the high neck to keep you snuggly :3

You could pair this with some black skinny jeans and ankle boots with a big coat, for one of those colder days. Or for a much sunnier day, you could wear this with some shorts and tigths, with a little denim jacket and flats or boots.



We then proceed to go to Primark, I know this top in the picture is from Topshop, but the top I purchased is extremely similar to this one (and I couldn't get a picture). Once again this top has the same ribbed detailing as the one before, you can probably tell that I'm loving ribbed detailing right now...
Anyway, I bought the top for £3.00 because Primark are famous for bargains, so you shouldn't have expected any less from then!
You could pair the top with a cute denim skirt and pumps or with shorts and plimsolls (not the shoes you wear when doing P.E in infant school).
This top would be really easy to pair with anything really, as the colour, fit and style are quite flexible when it comes to matching clothing items together; they would look nice with anything really.

 I know this quality of photo is really bad, but it's the best I could do! I also bought this cute t-shirt from Primark for £3.50, once again this top would be really easy to pair with many things.

We then trekked all the way to Boots, there I bought a pack of scrunchies and of course my favourite nail varnish brand Barry M!!





The scrunchies came in a pack, and they cost £4,29 all together, and the nail varnish cost £3.99
