Help Me!

100 Things #1

Hello!
So, this blog post is basically a copy of what everybody seems to have been doing, where they post ten things that make them happy, once a week for ten weeks. I have seen this done on many blogs and really like the idea, even though it's not that much of a recent thing, I thought I would give it a go!

Week One:

#1 Dancing


#2 Sweets


#3 Friends


#4 My Iphone


#5 Family


#6 Fashion


#7 Boyfriend


#8 Films


#9 Chocolate Milk


#10 Shopping

Happy Halloween!

Firstly, sorry I haven't blogged in a while, I just haven't thought of anything interesting enough i wanted to write about or what people would maybe want to read about. Nevertheless, I am back and of course yesterday was...HALLOWEEN, so I wanted to blog about what I did and what my outfit was. My friend Josie Desforges and I were supposed to be going trick r' treating with her little cousins, so we decided to get dressed up as good as we possibly could. Josie went as a rag doll and and I zombie girl. However, unfortunately Josie's little cousins couldn't make it, so instead of our efforts going to waste, 2 fifteen year olds went trick r' treating by themselves, coming home with lots and lots of sweets and chocolate. In our own opinions we thought we looked pretty scary and it looks like so did other people when we received many positive comments after posting a picture on both Facebook and Instagram. 

What do you guys think? ❤

Below the pictures I will state what products I used on my face.

Collective Haul

Afternoon fellow bloggers!
Firstly, I'm blogging today because unfortunately I'm feeling quite under the weather therefore I'm off school! I know some of you may love being off school for obvious reasons but I absolutely hate it! As I am in my last year of school we are learning at a very fast pace so even if I miss one lesson I feel like I've been away for years and am completely clueless. So I am going to take advantage on this opportunity and blog about my recent purchases from various shops such as: Primark, Office(Selfridges), Topshop and Gilly Hicks.  

I am a massive fan of Primark for fashionable, cheap clothes yet still of a pretty good quality. However, unfortunately my local Primark shop is absolutely awful, so obviously when I visit a different town/city I definitely have a little splurge! A couple of weeks ago I went to London for a long weekend with my mum and step dad to watch a show and have a bit is a shop. My mum is also a fan of Primark so it wasn't a surprise when I left with a few bits and bobs(not as much as usual). The first item I picked up was a white tee that was longer at the back. It has studs on the shoulders and a black printed image of a skull on the front. My mum originally spotted a women picking up the last one then putting it back. So we immediately went over before anybody else grabbed it and I placed it in my basket. Although I love the design and the tops edgy look, when I tried it on it was a tighter fitting than I expected, but I still liked it so bought it :). 


I next found a few other items that are a perfect fit and are just plain slouch tees, one with long sleeves and one with short, perfect for a simple look with leggings! The short sleeved tee is black and quite see-through so will need a vest underneath and the other is charcoal grey with little white bits in it. Both were very cheap and affordable. Next, I spotted a black and grey skull scarf that would go nicely with all three tops previously mentioned and easy to just chuck on. Finally when I was queueing to pay for my items I picked up a cute, sparkled, union jack designed card holder that I thought would be great for carrying my oyster card and was only £1.50! 



Still in London I also had a look in Selfridges as for months I'd been wanting to replace my white ankle converse that I had grown out of. In the Office section they had various colours of converse but I only wanted the same as before. My mum then said why don't I try a different colour, but white goes with everything so I was pretty narrow-minded, until I noticed the black ones that would go with pretty much everything as well. They were £45 but absolutely worth it as ever since I have created a love-affair with them and literally wear them every weekend! They are extremely comfy and are definitely my favourite shoes at the minute. If you are considering buying some converse or even buying another pair, I highly recommend the black ankle ones for a comfortable, easy and trendy look. I then popped into Gilly Hicks not expecting to buy anything and ending up walking out with a new bondi beach, poppy red bra and knickers set! It's a little bit more pricey yet so worth it and another thing I would recommend investing in.


At last, I come to my Topshop purchase this weekend. I have had literally no money recently but have wanted a grey jumper to throw on over a t-shirt for ageeeeees! So when I found this jumper in Topshop Grimsby this weekend I was over the moon and then to look at the price tag and discover it was only £18, I knew I had to purchase it. It's a lovely material, very soft and very affordable for Topshop. 

Only a few of the items mentioned in this haul blog are pictured.

Audrey Hepburn

A great women once said 'happiest girls are the prettiest girls' and of course this is completely true! If you let yourself be happy, you'll not only feel a lot better but you will look a lot better too! Being unhappy adds strain and sadness to your face which not only increases the rate of ageing but worsens the effect of it. Happiness is always noticeable by the glow and smile you have on your face which essentially makes you much prettier rather than sad and gloomy. So next time your feeling down in the dumps think of Audrey Hepburn as she could in fact save your face! 

Introducing Trixie

Hey bloggers! 
I have been wanting to create my own blog for a while now but have been hesitating due to many reasons but most importantly that no one would be interested in reading it! Yet recently I have realised that it doesn't matter about whether people like my blog (obviously I still would like it if they did) but more about me having my own personal space on the Internet where I could write about fashion, beauty and my own thoughts! I love reading a lot of blogs on the Internet and I have finally decided to make my own and hope you fellow bloggers enjoy my random posts about life!:)

I am pictured here at my sisters boyfriends 21st birthday in July earlier this year.

Firstly, my name is Evie Coates and i live in a small town in the North East of England called Grimsby and yes it is as grim as it sounds. I am 15 years old and in my last year of school studying the usual english, maths, science and then drama, history and french. I love everything fashion and beauty related and therefore that's what i am going to post about it! I hope you enjoy reading my blog because i know i will enjoy making it.
