Autumnal Vibes & Pretty Walks In Winchester...

Can we all just take a few moments to appreciate how beautiful the Autumn season is?

It's so pretty and eye catching, right?

With recently moving into a new flat, it's been rather sweet developing an interest towards the surroundings of where I live. 

Our pretty bridge that leads to our flat, is super cute! It also reminds me of the scene from Dirty Dancing 

Just outside of our drive, we have such a gorgeous detailed cobbled walls alongside the lovely shades of trees too! 

Without a shadow of a doubt, this looks super adventurous and cosy. 

Since, I was little taking pictures of Nature and beautiful flowers/trees seemed like a regular thing as during this time of year my Nan and Grandad would always show me their garden where there would always be pretty plants etc.   

It might be just be me, but I always obsess over pretty shades and pretty houses! I'm so lucky to live five minutes away from this stunning house.

With the Autumn shades being so prominent bright and bolder shades are super trendy.  

I felt like this was pretty bold of a statement when I initially took the photograph. As it suggested to me that, there's more than one direction that you can take. Which direction is best for you is the question that you have to discover in the end...

At the side of our, flat we have a beautiful hidden pathway which looks super magical. How secretive but memorising do the steps look like? 

I couldn't wait to share a few little Autumnal pictures with you all as well as sharing my Photography with you!

What with the Snapchat filters always being on point, with the different Seasonal ones I always find there is such cute ones during this season! 

There's a lot more to come guys, keep an eye out! 

With Love As Always,

My 6 Top Tips Straight From My Autumn Wardrobe Right Now...

With it being a typical Sunday, I feel like everyone will appreciate my quote of the day as well as it being my Instagram post for today. 

I feel like everyone appreciates a relaxing Sunday wearing PJ'S all day with a Cup of Tea at the ready and of course Netflix...

Sunday's are also a great day for focusing on House Work and catching up with Blog schedules etc. 

I guess, as an all rounder Sunday's are just a great day! 

With that in mind, I felt like this was the perfect time to post this selfie on the blog as it fits with the idea of having a lounge Sunday... As well as it, being an Autumn inspired selfie. 

Autumn days, are meant for; lounging, wrapping up warm in big hoodies and cuddling up on the sofa or cuddling into the the cosiest blanket. 

On that note, as it's Autumn I couldn't wait to share this on the blog as it's such an Autumn inspired photograph that I took. It's so pretty an definitely portrays Autumn vibes.

With it being the Autumn season, I thought it would be great to share with you all what my current Top Six Autumn Looks are! 

I personally always, enjoy reading what the new inspirations are etc. But I want everyone to be able to feel comfortable in their own skin and their own choices of style.

Look 1) 

Right now, Snakeskin Prints and Pastel shades are hot! You all know, my love for; Jumpsuits, Platform heels and Leather Jackets. 

Look 2) 



High Neck Jumpers are always trendy during this season period. But this year, we love to add a little detail. Fake Pearls right now, are in and they look really trendy on an outfit!

Pairing this look, with Checked Trousers or a simple pair of jeans with a nice pair of Chelsea Boots would look smashing!

Look 3) 

 

I mean, yes H&M did have the jumper in two of my favourite colours; Pink and Black. They also do it in; Grey and I am really considering to purchase. Though, I stuck with the pink and black shades for now. 

Pastel shades and pearls are super trendy right now. 

Look 4) 



From my recent updates on Instagram  I am presuming that you must have realised how obsessed I am with the current Gingham and Dog-tooth patterns right now. These trousers are so amazing! Pairing these trousers with a black body suit and a pair of black loafers look incredible.

Look 5) 



Polka Dot Jumpsuits are super on-trend right now! Neutral tones paired with a bolder colour always look trendy. But as a jumpsuit with the polka dot print it looks so good. I won't lie, this jumpsuit of mine has to be one of my top favourites right now.

Look 6) 



Printed shirts I absolutely adore. I've always loved printed shirts and find them very stylish but professional enough to wear at work. 

Though, this one I am in love with. I know, it has the 101 Dalmatians kind of vibe. Whereas, it also has the Autumnal Vibes that you can pair with a Nude coloured coat, a pair of black jeans and Chelsea or Platform boots! Mmm tasty, right?

 

I hope you've enjoyed having a tour into a small section of my wardrobe this evening as Aaron is always saying, I have far too many clothes but I am a girl and that's all that needs to be said! Ha! 

Much Love,

Why Be Someone Else When You Could Be You?

Previously on the blog, I discussed; 'Mental Health Awareness' I thought that this quote tied in quite nicely with the idea of  believing in yourself and loving yourselves. 

Throughout the World today, we surround ourselves with wanting to change ourselves or wishing to look like others which  damages our own perception of how beautiful we all are inside and out. 

We need to stop and take five moments to remember that we are all beautiful. 

As nowadays people tend to spend too long trying to be somebody else and not using any of that time to focus on themselves. 

I will willingly throw my hands up in the air and express how often I  spend my time reading about the new trends or the new Beauty Tips etc... Rather than, doing it my way I wish to follow other people's looks. Why? - I mean, I love following; Fashion and Beauty Trends. But something I recently discovered is that I love being me. I love doing things the way I want to and I love more than ever to wear what I think looks good and what I feel comfortable in as I love being me. I love living in my skin. 

There's the right balance of wishing to change or trying to change yourselves. I personally, know I would feel comfortable in changing my body to become healthier but I physically know the balance of not changing yourselves too much to look like somebody else. 

The key is to admire other peoples; looks, style and lifestyle but that doesn't mean you have to re-create your key as we all have one key that opens the lock to being you! 

Why be someone else when you could be you?

The World, is now seen through a  'Rose Tinted Glass' where everything is perfect and we base our lives through Social Media. We most commonly, wait for the likes and share perfect pictures when actually is everything perfect?

We live in a World of False Pretence, we believe that looking like; The Kardashian's or buying the most expensive items is going to keep us happy. Yet have we all forgotten what happiness is? 

Happiness, is being you and allowing your friends and family to love you the way you're but most importantly loving yourselves for you! 

I mean, I love The Kardashians  and I appreciate everything that they do or have done for themselves but they all have end goals. Rather than trying to be them, be inspired by them and create your own goals that are for you. Not for the Gram or for others, for you! 

Stay Beautiful, by being the best and true you that you can be!... 

Love Yourself,

Mental Health Awareness...

With it being Mental Health Awareness Day on Wednesday, I thought it was vital to reinforce how important Mental Health is. 

Mental Health, isn't something that is always visual it often is hidden and there is a lot of uncertainty sometimes around Mental Health. 

In many scenarios, it's unclear to people whether they have Mental Health or not. 

It's often that people feel ashamed or as if it's a let down towards people they care about etc, though it actually takes a massive amount of bravery for somebody to admit that they're suffering. 

Mental Health, comes in all shapes forms and sizes. 

It could be the smallest thing that forms a negative mindset that leads to Mental Health. 

I admit myself, suffering from anxiety takes a lot to actually admit that you're suffering. However, that's the biggest step that you have to make in order for yourself and your mind to feel better again. 

The recovery stage, almost shows your life and your life in many different ways. It allows you to understand that others are suffering in ways that you often don't think about. 

Though slow progress is a starting point.

 

From males to females, we all tend to believe that by suffering from Mental Health it's a failure. When actually, it shows a lot of bravery and makes friends and family members proud of you for admitting what's happening during your life. 

It's not something that should be frowned upon or believed that it's wrong. In fact, the message is to speak and to share what's happening! 

Nobody is alone.! 

Social Media has become such a positive platform for; Bloggers, Brands, Companies and Celebrities. However, social media isn't always a positive impact. 

Instagram, has become a way for people to share the lives they lead. Though from time to time, you will find that the lives they share aren't necessarily the lives that they actually live. 

It's hard to define what lives people live these days, as pictures that are shared online and smiles that are posted aren't always reality. 

We often hide ourselves behind a mirror which sometimes is our phone or social media that becomes our defence mechanism to prevent ourselves from our own pain.   

Not everything is as black and white anymore. Sometimes, we have to look further than just the simplest colours and explore. 

As I have suffered with anxiety myself, I feel like I should express a few feelings of my own and how I acted when I found out that I was suffering.

So here we go: 

1. Never believe that your failing yourself or your loved ones. 

2. Don't feel like you aren't strong to admit that you're not okay. It takes bravery to admit that your suffering.

3. Allow yourselves time to find yourselves once again and heal. 

4. Take time to heal even if that's a very long time. 

5. Change your life a little or a lot. Find time to do simple things such as: read a book or go for walks to look after your mind and body. 

6. Never feel like your alone, your surrounded by people who care. 

---- 

I hope this helps a little.

Much Love As Always,

Just Some New-bies Of Mine...

It's a typical new-bee day, so what better way than to open up an 'Anya Marie Ball' blog with a statement 'A' purse and a pink glittery clutch bag! 

It's definitely, a bit of me... A typical, 'Anya' saying for those of you who know me personally. HA! 

I mean, as it's Autumn I think it's kind of the rules to wear a darker shade lipstick... So out comes the Red Lipstick! For those of you looking for lipsticks, my must go to websites are the following: Mac, Rimmel London or JYY X Amber Turner lipsticks! 

Mine and Aaron's obsessions right now are the Charcoal Whitening Toothpaste from Superdrug... We go through random phases, however this is super trendy for those of you who can't afford to have them professionally Whitened. So this is an affordable option. 

As you all know, I'm a massive fan on changing products for my hair and ensuring it's treated correctly. So Hair Masks are a massive item on my list, changing up the treatment I use for my hair is a must have, so my current Hair Mask is the Loreal Elvive Hair Mask which is on offer at the moment at Superdrug for only £3.99! 

For those of you who are Blonde or dyed Blonde, to keep your hair coloured then you're in dire need of using these products as they're bloody good.! 

I swear I always purchase a Detangled Brush and always have to upload it! However, I just become so excited! Eco-Tools are honestly superb, spotting this little new-bee for sure ended up coming home with me! 

As it's Autumn, there's always a need for running the bath right?

So that means, there's always an excuse for heading into Lush for endless amounts of bath bombs! 

How pretty are the bath bombs though?! 

My latest obsessions with Autumn Fashion, is floral and more floral. You can't go wrong with a simple floral print! 

Not forgetting, how gorgeous the Marble Print washing basket is from Primark! 

Much Love,
