Taking big steps and adjusting to new changes in your life...

1 comment

As you all know lately,  I haven't blogged as often as I would normally and I have previously mentioned that I would let you know in due time why. I guess for a while, I have been putting off writing this blog as I wasn't so sure on how I would write this blog but I'm just going to let the thoughts and the words come naturally. 

As we all know, it's been a lot of change for students during the last couple of months, not just for students though as there has been a lot of change for many families and friends too. 

Well my boyfriend left the Island to move to Hull university on Friday and let's just say it's been a long process of ups and downs and there will be many more ups and downs to come! 

Yet of course we are proud of Scott and his achievements. It's just, everyone in society seems to be afraid of change. 

I will one hundred percent throw my hands up to this as I am terrible for plan changes so it's definitely a big stepping stone when changes like this happen for me. 

I thought I would take the time to write this blog for you all as I love sharing how I feel with you all, as you deserve to know how I'm feeling or what I'm experiencing as hopefully it may help you too if your feeling a similar way to me. 

With Scott moving away, it's a huge step. It's like a whirlwind, we go from spending nearly every day together to spending zero time together till Christmas time. That's clearly, going to be hard for both of us and of course at times it will be hard to deal with. 

But what everyone needs to remember is, he isn't leaving home because he wants to he's leaving because he wants to better himself and further his education. 

Many families and partners, are dealing with going through the change of having someone leave home. It's not just having people leave home for university, it's having family members move away or that said even friends move away from home. 

When we care about people and then they aren't in your life daily it often makes people feel alone or then again there's the worry you face by thinking they don't care about your or they will drift a part! 

There are many different feelings that are caused through simply facing change, but genuinely I think change is always good as it's a different experience to learn and go through. 

At times, you may not be over the moon with the change you experiencing but you must remember that life is a lesson to be learnt. 

Keep yourself busy, also it's okay to feel emotional but remember that they will coming home. 

Lots of love, Anya x

Are You Happy?

Leave a Comment
So as I haven't blogged much for you all recently I thought it would be perfect timing to write a lifestyle blog.

As I have said before, the lifestyle blogs aren't always as frequent as my fashion or beauty blogs as I tend to try and think of an experience of a situation or a feeling for the lifestyle blogs! 

Anyway, this evening I have been reflecting on the last year and the last few months of my life, I have found this really helpful personally! I would definitely say it's important to take time to reflect on your life and your life choices. 

When I looked back to my life a couple of months ago, it hit me that I wasn't the person I normally am and yes I personally think that relationships play a massive impact on how you act or change. 

What you need to remember is that everyone is human and everyone will do the same things or similar things during a period of you life. I think personally for me, I spent ages focusing on how my ex felt or how he saw things rather than focusing on how I felt and how I viewed things. 

At the time, you become so wrapped up on focusing on how that one person feels rather than what you feel like and nobody could ever tell you to think differently or change how you feel because it will take time for you to realise that the person who said he or she cared about you didn't and never would have done the same things that you did for them. 

I guess it takes time for you and for only you to realise everything, it's like a jig saw puzzle and only time will help you fit the pieces together and then you will be able to move on, just remember it's important to listen to what the other people say in your life. 

For example, a lot of my friends and my closest friends were always telling me that the relationship wasn't healthy for me and that I had changed and I honestly wish I could have turned back time sooner rather than later and listened to what family and friend members had said to me because looking back now it wasn't worth all the tears or the stress. 

My advice for people who are dealing with a similar experience right now I would suggest asking yourself every so often if you're happy and if you could be happier because honestly believe me it works! 

I'm a lot more happier within myself now, I have finally found my happiness and I still ask myself if I am happy now just because it's become a natural act in my day to day life now. I also have a diary and I write my feelings in there and I have flickered through the last few months of my life and my life is a lot more positive now than beforehand.

Lastly, make sure you don't forget who was there for you when you went through the bad times because they're your true friends and life would have been a lot harder for you if they weren't there for you! So make sure they know your grateful for what they have done for you! 

I hope this has helped you! 

Lots of love,

How To Style The Checked Shirt

How To Style The Checked Shirt


Good Evening, 

I'm sorry you haven't had many blogs posted from me recently, but as promised whenever I have time I will always blog. There will be many new blogs coming soon for you guys as I do have a lot to blog about. 

If you have a style you would like me to style for you or if you have any questions regarding anything, then be sure to let me know and I will do my best to do that for you. 

Anyway, I have found this style an interesting look to style as you should know by now guys I am quite simplistic with the colours amd prints I wear but I have recently gone for the checked shirts and edgy look thanks to the influence of my friend Beth. 

I don't really tend to be influenced much by celebrities fashion, though saying that as I have said before the Kardashian and Jenner sisters do have an influence on towards the style I tend to follow. Other than that, I don't really pay attention to what other celebrities wear, but family and friends play a huge influence on the way I interpret fashion; 

Above, I have shown you two ways in which I would style the checked shirt look, I hope it helps you to create the style for you look. 

1) Street Chic 

I personally love this style, I think it is stylish but it does have that rocky chic edge to it. I think this outfit is perfect for either day wear or night wear as the chilly evenings you can wrap up warmer in your jeans but still show that you know how to show off your stylish edgy chic inspired look. 

I would pair this look with black platforms or plimps, I have a look quite similar in which I have worm to show you. 



2) Party Chic 

So this outfit is very inspired for a night out and I was inspired by this look by a really good friend of mine called Beth Reynolds, I will include a picture later to show you how she styled the outfit but she styled it well. 

I personally tend to wear black and white colours when I am going out but I always like to blend it in with another colour so I think that the grey choice of colouring mingles in nicely with the black and white colours. 

I paired the outfit with a pair of leather shorts and a black strap crop top with the checked shirt tied around the waist, this looks glamorous but it is also a useful way to carry your shirt rather than holding it, if you get cold you can always put it on.

I have chosen to style a pair of white platforms with this outfit as it makes you outfit stand out and blend in with the white colouring on the checked shirt, 

In terms of, how I would accessorize the above outfits I would definitely say that fake tan has a massive impact on how I wear this outfit as it makes my tan stand out against the black and white colouring as I am quite pale. With the choice of red lipstick I think that it makes your outfit and your fake tan stand out and shows off your on-trend style. 

Though, the bags I would say definitely make a difference to your outfit as the black tassel bag I have styled with the day wear outfit as I think it looks trendy but still casual. For the night time outfit I chose a simple black clutch bag as I think it's perfect for the evening. 


Here is how Beth styled the checked shirt style. 

Have a nice evening everyone, I hope you like this blog, 

Lots of love,

About Me...

Leave a Comment
Hi there fellow bloggers or just the readers,

I have finally managed to have time to upload my first blog. I thought that after I had finished my A level exams I would publish my first blog! So here it goes!!

I thought my first blog would be the time to give you readers a sense of who I am and what I am like. I hope you all like me and can relate to my blogs and interests.



My name is Anya Ball, I have recently just turned eighteen.

I have always wanted to be a journalist ever since I was little, which is why I am very lucky to publish my articles online with my local newspaper and website which are called: The County Press and Yoppul.

I am a natural blonde with blue eyes and I have a high interest in fashion.

I am currently still studying English Literature and Language at sixth form. However, I have just finished studying Film studies and Fashion studies as A levels.

I am definitely a lover of the colour pink, my friends and family often mention how I seem to own or wear a lot of pink items. It wasn't long ago since I have had my bedroom redecorated as it all used to be pinky colours. Though I managed to finally persuade myself to change the colour scheme and I went for a silver, gold and a little blush colour of pink. So don't worry pink lovers, I haven't completely ditched the colour pink!

I am very family orientated, I love to stay at home and have lazy days doesn't everyone though?

Though, I do like going out with my friends as their all a major part of my life just like my family too! I will make sure I post a few photos to show you all an insight into my life. Plus I will add links to my social media's, so you can take a look if you wish too as I would love for my readers to be a part of my social feed as well as my blogs!

Despite that, I know that I have previously mentioned how I write articles for the County Press and Yoppul. I am very fortunate enough to be in this position to have my work published and to be given this opportunity. I am very grateful, if you would like to take a look at my articles then here is the website: www.yoppul.co.uk - you will find my work by either searching my name at the top of the website or by finding the tags of my name. Though, I am later going to post all of the articles that I have written for the website on here!

I am a huge fan of Capital radio, I listen to mainly all the music in the pop charts. Though, I must say that one of my favourite artists at the moment is Jon Bellion. Jon Bellion, isn't as well known yet however I discovered him with my friend Jordan. I have certainly become a massive fan!! What type of music do you listen too?

I am a lover of films, clearly shown by the way that I studied an A level in Film studies. My film genre has certainly developed since I have taken Film studies as I had to watch films such as: "Scarface", "Goodfellas" and "The Departed". I must admit since the two years of studying film I have grown to adapt to the different genres of films. Though, my favourite genre will always be romance! I mean who doesn't like ''Dirty Dancing'', ''Grease', ''Cinderella'', ''Bridal Wars'' ... The list could go on and on! What genre of film is your favourite?

I must say that all of the ''Spider Man'' films are also favourite films of mine too! Everyone loves a superhero don't they?

Anyway, I think that's enough about me and what I am interested in for tonight. I will make sure I add some photos to show you an insight into my life, along with my social media links.

I would just like to say thank you for taking the time to read my first blog and I hope that you have enjoyed it! Though, my next blogs will be more interesting than this as I am either aiming to write about bad experiences in relationships or 10 top trends of the summer fashion...

Actually, why don't you let me know what you would prefer? I will leave it up to you to choose!!
