So far this month I have been loving these few items and finds. I wanted to share with you my 5 favourites of this month and a quick review on them too, enjoy!
1
Minga London is a clothing store I found through a magazine, yeah I know Minga?
The clothes are quite the opposite to me they are right up my street with an array of prints, patterns and cute quirky pictures too. They do the cutest Ts, hoodies and recently swim wear! Theres so much to choose from as each top comes in 4/5 different colours so you can't help but feel like you're styling your own T.
If you enjoy my style and like what you see then this site is for you!

I've been searching for a beautiful matte Red for ages now! I have always raved about Milani matte lip but their Red seems to bleed onto my face now and is very dry no matter how moisturised your lips are before applying. So there I am running around superdrug giving each and every brand a fair chance and I come across Barry M.
What you need to do when searching for a trusty matte is to test the product out on your hand and then carry on shopping. While I fish for other things I will keep checking my hand to see how quickly the matte has dried and most importantly does it rub off? Yes its an important process!
I was so happy to find that this lipstick is not only one of my favourite colours but also has a great drying Matte finish!
It's the perfect red for my oh so pale face, its not too bright and not too dark, plus its affordable. I can't wait to try out their other colours.
So if you're a matte girl like me, try the Barry M matte me up.

Having a Free From diet can be hard enough as it is especially if you're a snacker like me. I found this Trek bar in a petrol station one day and was pleasantly surprised that there was a Free From product in site. I've never been a cereal bar kind of girl but when you're in need for a quick snack when out and about this to me is the go too bar. This beautiful treat is incredibly delicious and a great snack in between meals, I'm so addicted I eat around 1/2 a day!
I pop them in my Gym bag for a snack before my work out or when i'm on the go running errands they quickly solve that feeling of hunger and keep you going till your next big meal.
You can never beat the feeling of a new find in the Free From isle

I came across Girl Boss on Netflix as it has currently been made into a series and I had no idea what I was getting myself into but the summary seemed inspiring in itself so I dived in.
4 days later I had successfully finished the first season and was instantly googling away to find out if there would be another.
On my search I found the book! I didn't know that this was a true story and I was so inspired watching the series that I just had to know more about this Sophia Amoruso.
I won't ruin it for you but lets just say she slays! I love this book because its funny, easy to read and very inspiring, if Sophia can do it then we all can do it but nothing is sugar coated.
Sophia reminds us that in life no matter how much we want something we have to be willing to put our thoughts onto paper and most importantly action! She worked her ass off building such a massive empire and she practically shows you how. Its a spontaneous success story of a every day woman's grind in life and how she became her own Girl Boss.
For those with big dreams this is for you...
I'm slowly working my way through this book (plus taking notes) as theres so much to learn about the business and I don't want to miss anything out. Take your time reading and enjoy this amazing find.

300 writing prompts is the most fascinating questionnaire I have ever come across. I found this book on twitter from another fan and then bought a copy from Amazon.
I love creative writing and writing Poetry etc and this book is a great task for the brain. It's filled with questions that you'll probably never hear in your every day life but are very intrigued to answer, I feel you learn more about yourself when writing in this book than any other. It certainly revived the creative side in me and I hope it will for you too.
E.q questions-
- What makes your look distinctly you?
- Is having power over someone more important than having his or her respect?
- What would you rename the planets?
- If you could have any colour skin for a day, what would you choose?
- Finish the following thought: "I always wanted to go..."
- What part of your childhood are you glad you left behind?
- At what point does silence become awkward?
