~ The Sound ~

Anya Marie Ball Monday, 11 December 2017 Leave a Comment

Dear The Sound,

They stay silent as the silence says it all.

The silence has become their sound!

It's become them. Do they know?

Where's the sound, that constantly surrounds them?

He runs to her. She's already running.

They know the sounds.

I can't believe they once forgot!

You were once the light. The light become dull. When, once it had the spark.

She searched day and night in hope to stand next to you again.

He told her his sound would never leave her side.

The sound fell silent.

The sound lied.

Yet she waited for the sound to return.

She was on an endless journey, waiting for The Sound's return.

Had he lied to her?

When would the journey end?

All alone, left out in the dark.

She stood silently waiting.

He lied to you!

He knew the sound of her heart, he stared approvingly knowing he'd collected yet another broken heart.

But why was he running?

A long time ago, he once ran to you...

Why did he begin to break hearts?

He can no longer tell the difference!

She begged him to find the sound, to listen and to come back to her.

The difference to her was she could see and hear The Sound, yet she believed in him and still she waits for The Sound to return.

There you'll find them chasing The Sound....

My Thoughts On Reaching 10k Followers On Instagram..

Anya Marie Ball Saturday, 6 May 2017 2 comments

While the weekend is still within grasp of our finger tips how could I not share this?

I love waking up on a weekend and seeing motivational quotes/messages on Instagram! I always find that they motivate me and make me much happier!

Without a doubt, there was no way that I could resist sharing this with you all! For those of you who follow my Instagram and social media pages I'm pretty sure that by now you will have already figured out that I have reached 10K!!

For sure, when I opened up my Instagram app on my Iphone last night to discover I had made it to 10K more than certainly overwhelmed me!...

Let's just say my house mates were well aware as it seemed to be the topic of the night!

I can't truly believe it! I am so grateful for every follower...

There's truly no way to describe how gobsmacked I am.!

Since starting the blog, which believe it or not was actually nearly two years ago now, I never expected to reach the amount of views or followings that I have!

Saying I'm shocked is an understatement.

As a newly turned eighteen year old when I initially started out with the blog I didn't really expect to get anywhere with it. From perspective of being a human being, we all know what it's like to lack self confidence don't we?

Anyhow, I never expected to fall in love with blogging. I truly didn't!

There is honestly so much to blogging. I often hear how others joke and put bloggers down, little do they know how much confidence it takes to publish that; makeup routine, fashion trends or part of your life online!

Behind closed doors, it takes a lot of work due to all the editing and tweaks we all make to make it look perfect!

The message I want to portray here more than anything is to not worry about it being perfect. Living your life around trying to be perfect isn't reality, being you is the best perfect you could ever possibly be!

In other words, I never thought people would read my blogs and trust me there's been many of blogs that I've read back on and wished I hadn't posted that online as I've been fussing over slight changes or I've since disagreed on sharing that part of my wardrobe or life etc! The point is that, someone in the world will enjoy reading those blogs as our lives aren't perfect nor will they ever be!

Life is about following your journey...

Be brave enough to know you can believe and be yourselves!.

In all honesty, I am now truly obsessed with working on my blog! If I could sit up all day and night working on the blog then I would as I love it! I didn't think for one minute that I would become hooked on blogging but I am!

Your journey finds you!

Once again, thank you to each and every one of you for encouraging me to be brave and understand that 'perfect' doesn't exist but your journey does!

With that in mind, follow your journey!

Be fabulous and never let anyone dull your sparkle!

Thank you for believeing in me and following my journey on the blogs so far!

Much Love As Always,

Instagram Inspirations

Anya Marie Ball Friday, 9 October 2015 Leave a Comment

Hey everyone, how are you all? I would just like to say another thank you for always reading my blog and a special thank you too all of you lovely people out there who share my blogs for me.!

It's been a while since I have wrote my 'Instagram Inspirations' blog for you all, so it's definitely time for me to share and write this blog with you all.

In terms, of what my instagram inspirations are I always obviously share with you guys but I don't tell you why or elaborate on why there my instagram inspirations so I always follow them up for you lot to see why etc on the blog.

Everyone, knows I love make-up and girly things and when I saw this picture I fell in love with the make-up bag! Isn't it beautiful? So I definitely had to share this with you, but also you will know I have just wrote another blog which also discusses lifestyle and beauty topics! You should check it out girls! But this make-up bag is so pretty and truthful that's for sure!

Now with it being the autumn weather now it's that little bit cooler and everyone wants to wrap up warm but still in style. The autumn weather always goes in-between temperatures and that makes us still want to try and get away with our summery clothes but now with the season's most talked about pair of boots, of course it's the over the knee heeled boots. We can dress up in style and still keep our footsies warm!

I am definitely a shoe-aholic I love shoes! I have a whole part of my wardrobe just for my shoes and another cupboard outside of my bedroom! I guess I am really obsessed, but I definitely think shoes make an influence on your outfit don't they? Anyway, so when I saw this photo I loved it! It's a lovely pair of jeans, which I always love looking for new jeans and I think it's a lovely colour blue paired with a beautiful pair of black heeled ankle boots! I can't get enough of black boots! I love them!

Now recently, I have posted home décor inspirations on my social media's and on my blogs! I definitely love showing you guys my inspiration for my home décor! As you all know, I am really homely and I love showing my homely side to you all! But yes, I have been caught out pink is my favourite colour and one day I will try and get away with having a pink bathroom ha-ha!

I told you I have an obsession with shoes, my inspirations are pretty much just shoe inspirations aren't they? So these heels definitely caught my eye! I love them, I love the way they have that look as if there boots but also show there sassy heeled look! What more could a girl want?

Now girls, cast your eyes on this beautiful delicate lace top inspiration! Isn't it stunning! When this came up on my timeline, I had to repost it for all of you beautiful followers of mine to see! I love the way it looks even more stunning with a pair of jeans! I simply fell in love with this top, did you girls?

Anyway, that's it for now everyone! Take a look to see some more of my instagram inspirations soon!

Lots of love, Anya x

Instagram Inspirations

Anya Marie Ball Thursday, 27 August 2015 Leave a Comment

So I thought I would do something a little different for you all, as you all know my social media's do play an influence on my blogging life and my life in general.

You all know that my aim is to let you guys know me for me, through my blog or through my social media's so I definitely thought this would be a good idea for you to get to know my style a little bit more if you don't follow my social media's or just a general reminder of my style for you all!

1) Black and White Platforms

I definitely couldn't go without my platforms, that's for sure! Everything I wear is now based around my platforms and what platforms I wear. I stumbled across these pair of platforms when I was looking through my Instagram and I couldn't resist regramming them because I adore them!

2) Black With Gold Trim Heels

I found these when I was looking through another bloggers Instagram, a well known blogger called Charlotte Fisher. I love her style, her style is quite similar to my style and she also lives on the Isle of Wight like me! Anyway, these pair of heels definitely had to be an Instagram Inspiration! I had to buy these heels because I guess I just couldn't resist them! But who could?

3) Simple Black Watch

Don't you just love this simple black watch? I certainly do, I'm tempted to buy it but I don't normally wear watches so it would be a waste of money. However, I love styling pretty watches with outfits. I couldn't not show you guys this watch because I think it's beautiful! What do you think?

4) Pretty Pink Heels

You should all know by now that my favourite colour is pink and pink literally surrounds me wherever I go or wherever I am! So when I saw these, I couldn't not Instagram them for you all! I need these shoes, in my life for sure!

5) Sweet Strawberry And Raspberry Shakes From Tiffins

This isn't really an inspiration instagram but regardless of that, I think the photo deserves to be shown on my blog as I love Tiffins shakes! I personally, haven't found a better yoghurt shake from anywhere! With it being, Cowes week a couple of weeks ago now I was over there a lot and I regularly visited Tiffins just for a shake! I also love the way there presented too, don't you?

6) Ripped Jeans And Black Heels

This definitely had to be an instagram inspiration due to the fact that it shows off that Kim Kardashian feel towards the photo! As you all know, I love the Kardashian's and Jenner's fashion sense! I certainly thought this looked like their sort of style, plus I loved the ripped jeans and the heels too! What do you think?

I hope you like the new blog that I have done for you all! I will always try to do something new for you all as I don't want my blog to become boring!

Lots of love,

Anya x

Why Do I Use Social Networks?

Anya Marie Ball Monday, 17 August 2015 Leave a Comment

Hey guys,

So recently I have been asked by family members and fellow readers of my blog why I include my social networks with my blog?

I guess I thought the easier way to tell you all would be to write a blog for you all to read and understand...

So why do I share my social networks on my blog?

I guess one of the main reasons why I share my blog life on my social networks and vice versa is the fact that I want my fellow blog readers to understand who I am and to know about my life.

As I personally always like to know about the author of a book that I am reading or an actor of a character I like in a film...

As I have said before I think it is important to know about someone, rather than knowing part of something we should know it all I think, do you agree?

I want you all to know about my life, as I want you to know that what I say or think is the truth and is real. So my aim is to be as open as I can with you all and with any blog that I right. To me, that's really important for me and my blog!

My social networks are important to me as I daily try to update photos in order to show everyone what's happening or happened during the day or a timed period of my life. I find it important to upload photos as you all can see what I am doing or even for me too look back on and remember.

You all know, I like to take a selfie to remember everything! I am sure a lot of you do too!

Anyway, I hope I have answered the question for you as much as I could.

Lots of love,

Anya

Denim & Tan Days

Anya Marie Ball Saturday, 8 August 2015 Leave a Comment

So today is the day for styling denim and tan together, I think it works really well together. I created this style board for you all to see how I would wear tan and denim together, What do you think of the look?

It's a pretty simple style really, all you need is an item of denim and a tanned item of clothing or accessory in this case I have used a handbag and a pair of sunglasses.

With the denim and tan style I have paired it with a black crop top and a pair of white platforms as the black and white colours separate the denim and tan colours,

I chose two sunglasses as I love them both but I personally would go for the white pair of sunglasses. What style would you prefer?

I hope this help you find a way to wear the Denim and Tan style! I would love to see how you have worn the style, so please do send me photos!

Lots of love,
Anya x

Lifestyle...

Anya Marie Ball Wednesday, 15 July 2015 Leave a Comment

Hey everyone,

I am sorry I haven't blogged in a while guys, it has definitely been a busy couple of weeks. But when I get the chance I will always make the time to blog so don't worry about that one!

I thought about writing a lifestyle blog as I haven't really had time to write another one yet so I think I have found the perfect opportunity to do so!

As you can probably tell from the last lifestyle blog I wrote about it was based on relationships.

By the way I hope that reflecting the way that I have felt recently has managed to help you guys or to make you understand the way different relationships are...

I think what's best to remember especially for me at this moment in time of my life is that not every relationship is the same and things will be different during your life. That isn't me saying you will forget what that other person meant to you but eventually you need to move on if things aren't making you happy.

Moving on from the relationship pointer, I definitely think that finding your happiness is a very important thing to do and believe me it does certainly take time! I know that some of you guys will think making other people in your life is more important than making yourself happy but do you really want to be hurt or upset too?

I know that making the people happy in my life is an important thing to me but recently I have managed to come to terms with the fact that you yourself have to be happy before you manage to make others happy as well.

I recently discovered a quote which has become one of my favourite quotes that I have come across on social media's and I would definitely like to share it with you guys:

"It's All In Your Mind"

"Whatever you hold in your mind will tend to occur in your life. If you continue to believe as you have always believed, you will continue to act as you have always acted. If you continue to act as you have always acted, you will continue to get what you have always gotten. If you want different results in your life or your work, all you have to do is change your mind."

The important thing to remember is that change isn't such a bad thing. Even though you or your friends or your family may think so it isn't as bad as you think and it often works out better for yourself if you can change something in your life.

You must not be afraid to change something, if your not happy it needs to be changed to make you happy again!

I hope this has helped you everyone, thank you for continuing to read my blogs and I hope I have managed to help you in some way!

Have a nice day, see you soon.

Lots of Love,

Barbie vs Chick look

Anya Marie Ball Monday, 29 June 2015 Leave a Comment

Hey everyone,

I thought it would be about time to create another fashion board to show you guys an insight into the styles I like or the styles that catch my eye.

As I said before, I think it is very important for you guys to know me or have an understanding of what I like and who I am. So this morning I created this fashion board to show you guys what sort of styles I go for.

I thought it would be a nice idea to show the barbie sort of style as I believe that's a massive influence on how some people dress nowadays. I know that I dress quite similar towards that style, I have a lot of skater skirts that are pink! Well I have a lot of clothing and shoes that are also pink!

I also tend to go for either a black or white top to create that simplistic detail to an outfit, I always think that a simple colour with a bolder colour makes your outfits stand out.., Do you agree?

I guess I wanted to embrace my barbie side I suppose ha-ha!

With the chic style, it has that street to chic look which I absolutely adore. I love that using basic colours you can create such a stylish outfit.

I would say that my fashion and style are quite similar towards the chic style as I wear a lot of white and black but then again I tend to wear a lot of pink as well.

So I would definitely say that I mix my outfits up to show a different interpretation towards my style and to show a different character!

What style would you go for more? I would love to know your opinion....

Below I have left the prices of the clothing and where there from:
