Lifestyle - Dream Book

Over the last few months I have been having some really odd dreams so I decided to jot them down in a notepad before analyzing them later on that day or week. I called mine a dream book but they are also known as dream bibles, you can get all sorts of books I use one by David Fontana called 1000 Dreams which has some information on what dreams are but also the meanings behind what your dreams mean.


Lifestyle - What I Would Tell My Younger Self

Next year it will be my 25th birthday and even though I probably won't last until 100 for me it seems like a quarter of my life has gone, so today I wanted to do a post on what I would of told my younger self if I could go back and change the last 25 years. I've achieved so much and although I love the life I have there are quite a few things I would love to change.

Hello cute little Jess!

Music - Years & Years Communion Review

Years & Years is a band I would never normally go for as it's electropop and I'm more of a rock/pop fan but there is something about this band that I can't stop loving. I preordered there new album Communion and couldn't wait for it to arrive. There a trio from all over the world Olly from the UK, Mikey from Australia and then Emre from Turkey, they become a four piece band for there live sets that includes there drummer Dylan.



The album is a matt black cd cover with an added rainbow effect Y symbol on the back the track listing is in the same faded rainbow effect which is simple yet eye catching. The inside of the album cover features some more Y's but this time much more in your face and not as subtle as the cover apart from the one glossy black almost hidden Y on the matte black background. I feel like the cover it's different from the classic cd cases that always break yet it has a lot of personality.



The songs are very moving but are upbeat enough that you don't get sucked into a sad state, if you listen to the lyrics there all about heartbreak and moving on songs which are from a boys point of view which is a nice change from the typical heartbreak songs being beaten out by girl singers. The acoustic songs are sung beautifully which adds a really nice personal touch to the album.



My favorite tracks have to be the haunting beautiful track Foundation which makes my arm hair stand to attention and Take Shelter which has a really nice upbeat track to it while still being meaningful. I really can't wait to see what Years & Years do next and look forward to seeing them in October on the UK Tour which has 14 dates so you really can't miss them!

Have you brought the new Years & Years album, which track can you not stop playing?

Beauty - Zoella Scrubbing Me Softly Body Scrub

My second review from the Tutti Frutti range by Zoella and it's the Scrubbing Me Softly Body Scrub, the impressive 280g pot which is filled the the lid cost's £7 which may be a bit pricey but as I scrub my body twice a week I feel this product is going to last a while so shall be worth the money.


Beauty - Hello Mouthwash Mojito Mint

I have been after this mouthwash since I saw it in my local Superdrug but as I was still finishing a bottle from another brand I didn't pick it up, then to my horror my store decided to remove it from the shelves and stop stocking it. But on a recent trip to Reading I managed to pick up the Mojito Mint flavour as there are three to choose from, at just £5.99 for a giant 473 ml bottle it's worth the price.


Beauty - Zoella Kissy Missy Lip Balm

I was really happy to see my local Superdrug stocked with the new range from Zoella, as I loved her old line I couldn't wait to see what I liked from the new line. I picked up Kissy Missy which I shall review today and then sometime next week I shall review Scrubbing Me Softly so look out for that. At just £3 for a small 5g pot that's handbag friendly you can't go wrong with this lip balm.


Beauty - Barry M Top Coat, Base Coat and Nail Hardener

I love all in one product's that actually work and Barry M's top coat, base coat and nail hardener is just the product I'm looking for. At just £2.99 it's hard for me to not jump about and shout about this product as I love it that much!
