My Current Obsessions & Pretty Pieces!| June's Monthly Products.

Is it just me who spends forever googling pretty inspired pink Tumblr posts?

A girl certainly dreams, doesn't she? Well, I do.... 

I often find myself spending hours on end searching for pretty inspirational decor designs....! 

Moving swiftly on, it's been a while as I stated yesterday hasn't it? It's been nice over the last few weeks to finally get back into the swing of things and work on posts for you all. I'm guessing you've all missed me, right? Who wouldn't have missed some Anya Marie Ball loving? Ha-ha! 

Well I'm back so you don't need to worry now he-he!!

As you can see, I have gone a little lighter. I feel like, turning lighter is the way it should go for summer!! Don't you agree?! 

Side note, well-done to England for heading into the World Cup winning their first game against Tunisia! 

Wow! 

Anyway back to the blog before I find yet another reason to distract myself from the topic... 

Rather than, dedicating a separate blog for my top Fashion and Beauty products I thought I would head back into the old blogs I used to post for you all... 

Any guesses on what they could be?...

You know it...!! My monthly favourites.... I used to select every month a range of different products to share with you all! So let's roll back into that and head back down to memory lane. 

I spotted this newbie bag in Primark a couple of weeks before my birthday and couldn't resist purchasing it. 

It's ideal for using it for a quick trip away. 

Wow-eee how beautiful are these babies?! 

Head over to Lavish Luxe!  to find absolutely stunning trend worthy shoes that believe me you won't be able to take your eyes off! 

How perfect are they for summer?... 

Simple chokers are so on trend recently and they definitely make an outfit more dressy! 

I would for sure recommend searching for this beauty bag in Primark as it has two sections which now contains my make-up brushes and my make-up! 

With summer here, what better way than to purchase pretty 'n' pink aviators?

A girl can never have more than one highlighters in her make-up bag right? I mean if you're anything like me you would definitely have more than one possibly four! 

Again, Primark seems to be my go to right now. In all honesty, they have a lot of star buys right now. 

I stumbled across these two gorgeous beauty cosmetics! 

The Mink Pink and Peachin' Highlighters are absolutely stunning... 

The shades definitely provide the wow factor.

The gorgeous Peachin' has a pinky goldy tone which definitely makes a statement for summer. While, the Minx Pink sets a subtle sun-kissed glow with mixed tones of; a nude pink, silvery and subtle hints of gold. 

A monochrome jumpsuit, this is a must have essential for your wardrobe as it's suited for all seasons! 

My oh my, thank you to Amber Turner for sharing this outfit post I then stumbled across JYY London which provided me with this gorgeous two piece! 

JJY London!

Well that was a blast from the past as I shared my monthly favourite products with you all!!. I hope you enjoyed the trip down memory lane though! I've always loved monthly blog posts for you all.

Do you think I should continue my monthly posts?

Let me know what you think! 

Lots of love,

My August Monthly Favourites...

Welcome August! I hope you have given everyone a great August so far! 

Again, I am truly sorry for the lateness of the bl0g... It's just been a pretty hectic few months recently! 

I've got so much I want to share with you all! So sit back and wait to find out all my new little bits.... 

But anyway I will get straight onto sharing my new favourite pieces with you all.... 

If you have seen my Instagram feed recently then you will have seen this beautiful new sleeveless duster coat making a feature on my selfies... I absolutely adore it!! It's such a beautiful colour and it's just so perfect for a dressing up or casual outfit! What more does a girl really want?

Plus, the price of it made me even more excited as it was only £11 due to having 20% discount at work!! 

Everywhere I turn my head I see bardot tops and I am absolutely loving them!! I can't express how much I am loving bardot tops right now!! So thank you Newlook for this one!! It's so amazing, I love the fact I can dress it up or dress it down! 

How on earth could I turn down a black and white striped bardot top? 

With there being many discounts on Missguided recently it was most definitely time for  me to do a little cheeky shop.... I found myself falling in love for this beauty!! It's just such a simple crop top but with the bardot detail again, it looks simply incredible!! 

My dearest friend Sophie, came round to mine wearing this beauty and how could I simply resist buying it as well? I just couldn't say no! I had to make another cheeky purchase online at Matalan! It's perfect to pair with some ripped jeans or just a plain pair of black jeans!! 

I think it's an ideal look for an evening meal or day time outfit!! 

Now this buy has made me over the moon!! I took a quick trip into Newport this afternoon with Scott to find a few things which is when I discovered this handy planner in Poundland. I try my best to be as organised as I can be! 

I think planners are perfect, as you most likely know bloggers tend to find them super handy! I normally tend to use my diary but when I found this it had to leave the store with me! 

I love the pretty designs on the weekly planner. The pretty birds, almost an Instagram symbol and of course the sweet ribbons! 

Last Sunday, my mum kindly met me from work and showed me a new gift she had bought me and again I was so excited!! I guess, I love the little things! 

I always find that the little things mean the most though, do you know what I mean?

Without a doubt, I am always super excited when it comes to having a new diary! Especially when, my best fiend and my mum put a lot of thought into finding the right one for me ha-ha!! 

They know I'm a sucker for pink, so that's a must have essential in my life! Oh my god, then Lizzie found the cute little 'Queen Bee' slogan on the front! It was definitely made for me ha-ha! I love it!! 

I've been dead excited to share this on my blog with you all as it's my very first Yankee candle purchase!!... I've been very lucky to have my friends and family members buy them for me! But I guess, there was just absolutely no way I could turn down this beauty! 

Again, I found this in Matalan which was such a great buy! It was only £9!! That's such a good price for a big Yankee candle!! 

In case you were wondering, it's called: Bermuda beach! 

I'm simply lost for words with this candle! It blew me away, with how beautiful the scent smelt! 

It's the perfect summery scent, it's so dreamy! It makes me imagine being down at the beach on a lovely summer's holiday!! Mmmm take me back to Majorca now.... 

With missing my nail appointment last week, I one hundred percent needed to do something! Who can have plain nails during the summer? Certainly not me!! 

Thank god, my dearest friend Lizzie saved the day when she painted and put some gems on my nails for me! Aren't they such a beautiful summer colour? Thank you Lizzie, you life saver! I love you millions!! 

So wha-la that's my August monthly favourites done for you all! 

I hoped you all enjoyed reading the blog!! 

Have a lovely evening!! 

Much Love As Always, Anya Marie xx

My July Monthly Favourites...

Good evening, to the blogging world! 

I am super sorry for the fact that this blog is pretty late!! As you're aware, I have been rather busy during this month but anyhow I have chosen a simple and sweet little July picture which I actually adore... 

As it's the first of August today I am also going to share a little fancy August picture with you all as well... 

I have a thing for bold but simple things right now so when I found this picture I thought it fit the blog quite well right now!! 

I wonder if you have any guesses for the upcoming surprises which will be on the blog? If you do let me know by leaving a comment below. I think some of your thoughts might just be right but you'll never know until you start guessing.... 

This monthly blog, is going to be slightly different but different is good so I hope you enjoy!! 

From recently, coming home from Majorca I have certainly had holiday blues! So of course, the hotel where Scott and I stayed had to make a feature in my July monthly blog.

We literally had an amazing time and couldn't have wished for a better first holiday together! It was absolutely perfect! I really want to go back to Majorca right now!! 

Instead of sharing each individual make-up product with you as I have already done that in a previous monthly favourite blog. I thought I would share my favourite make-up look with you all instead... 

I have clearly gone for a summery inspired look which believe it or not is my favourite look right now as it's pretty simple and pink! 

The beauty products I have used to create this look are: 

1) Mac Primer, 

2) Nars Long stay Foundation, 

3) Rimmel Mascara, 

4) Zoella lipbalm, 

5) Mac Bronzer and 

6) Mac Beauty Powder. 

It's such a simple and easy makeup routine to create!

If you have anymore questions about the look or if you're fancying a more detailed routine I will be happy to share you that on the blog. Just be sure to let me know!! 

After, returning home from Majorca I headed to the Travel Agents and collected a few more brochures to take a little looksie at as I am fancying another holiday away with Scott ASAP! 

On holiday, I had to have a few selfies didn't I? So I couldn't resist sharing some of my favourite holiday inspired looks with you all either so sit tight and wait for that blog he-he!

I absolutely, love this outfit I think it's pretty and it certainly stands out! 

If you remember rightly, I actually shared this beautiful anklet on my birthday blog as my friends Lizzie and Tom bought it for me! I was dying to take this away and wear it on holiday... It's such a beautiful design, it's so pretty! It was one hundred percent one of my most loved summer accessory! 

To follow that one, my dear friend Sophie also bought me this beautiful body conditioner from Lush Cosmetics! Let's just say, I think I have a new obsession! It leaves my skin feeling soft and beautiful! I love the scent it's just mmmm! 

Since, coming home from Majorca I have been helping my mum pick up her last bits for her holiday! | A little side note,  I hope you have had a safe journey mum and Paul! Have an amazing time! | Anyway, with helping my mum buy her last few bits I found myself discovering these beautiful sandals from Mia! I absolutely adore them and have found myself quite literally living in them! 

And that's that my lovelies! I'm sorry it's quite short! I promise next month, will be a lot longer as I have a few products that I am currently trying out which I am dead excited to share with you all! 

Have an amazing August!! 

I look forward to hearing what your guesses are!! 

Take Care, Love Anya Marie xxxx

My May Favourites...

Finally May has arrived!! I hope it brings lots of sunny weather for us all!!

May is is such a pretty month isn't it? It's certainly one of my favourite months as it's under a month before my birthday which has me super excited!! 

I couldn't resist sharing this photo with you as it's just so pretty and pink!! 

This months monthly blog is going to be slightly different again as again the weather has been so beautiful recently that it's been perfect for a day down the beach which is exactly what my parents and I did after I finished work yesterday. 

I shared this panoramic photograph with you all in yesterday's blog but it's become one of my favourite photos ever! That i couldn't resist sharing it with you in my May favourites blog! I live on such a pretty Island!! 

Before, moving onto my favourite monthly products for this month I thought I would share a few other favourite photos of mine from yesterday. As you can see my parents look like their having a lovely time! 

My first favourite product of this month definitely has to be this nail varnish which is called Peachella from the Rita Ora collection. For a while, I found myself searching for a bright pinky peachy colour for the summer and that's when I discovered this one! Isn't it gorgeous? 

I have been dying to find some spare time and read this little buy! The summer is all about grabbing a book heading outside in the sun and reading isn't it? 

Ever since, this new-bee arrived on my door-step I have been dying to share it on my blog! I first saw this on one of Zoella's blog and thought how beautiful the designing of the bottle and packaging looks! Let alone, how adorable the goldy brown lid is... It's pretty much like magic, as there is a sponge that you simply pull off in order to apply the liquid bronzer on your body! I've literally fallen in love with the product which is from Benefit! I do believe, this may become one of my summer essentials! 

To start off with, how stunning is the design and packaging of this product? It blew me away as soon as I saw it! It's just so inspiring and dreamy don't you agree? I love the mix of colours, they work so well together! 

I'm literally lost for words... I have pretty much fallen for this bronzing and contouring brush from Benefit... Sorry to tell you this Scott ;)! Ha-ha! But no seriously it's so adorable, I'm not sure if I can use it as it's just so so beautiful! 

Where can I start with this new buy? For months on end, I have been searching for that one bag which will catch my eye. Then I walked into work yesterday and found the one I have been looking for!! Tassels are a top trend at the moment and how could I resist it as it's black!! I swear black is my favourite colour ;)! Head online to Peacock's or pop in when you get the chance! 

As you all know I am heading off to Majorca in July with Scott for a summer break! I can't wait!! I'm literally counting down the days! So obviously, I have been focusing on buying new clothes for our holiday so I headed straight onto Boohoo of course in the search for summery clothes. 

Without fail, I managed to find this beautiful skirt!! It's perfect for the summer evenings or even during the day as you could pair it with a bright coloured crop top for example a red crop top would one hundred percent work well with this little number. 

You all know, I'm an affiliate for Boohoo but I thought I would mention the fact that Boohoo now have an app that you can download from the app store so you can find it easier to shop! 

Trust me, Scott used to love the fact that I had to load my laptop to shop on boohoo but if I was feeling lazy I wouldn't bother as I couldn't be bothered to walk downstairs. (Tut, lazy Anya I can hear my grandad saying!) Now there's no need for me to grab my laptop as I can go shopping on my phone!! Thank you Boohoo, it's so much easier!! 

Let me know if you've used the Boohoo app and what you think of it! :)

Again, with my holiday getting nearer and nearer I needed to find a sweet little beach bag which I hopefully could use again after my holiday! I love the sweet little flower design on the front of the bag! It's such a sweet little detail! Plus, it was such a bargain from Primark as it was in the sale for only £5! Thanks Primark!! 

Searching for new clothes for a holiday can sometimes stress you out. However, I would literally enjoy the saying 'shop till you drop' as that's definitely what I do! Another bargain, from Primark I think they were only £6! It has a beautiful Coachella kind of vibe with the aztec print don't you agree?

However, these shorts are a little bit of a throwback to last year as I bought them from Newlook a year ago!! They're still my favourite pair of shorts, I think the print is so pretty!! I couldn't resist sharing these with you as I have been wearing them more now that the sun has arrived! 

There you go then my lovelies that brings my May monthly favourites to an end! I can't believe it's May already! Before, I know it will be June! 

A shout out to Scott for your birthday on the 15th of May - I wish you a lovely birthday and we will celebrate when you come home!! As well not forgetting Aaron - happy birthday too! 

I thought, I would tag this black and white double trouble selfie with you all as I bring it to an end.... 

Have an amazing May everyone!! 

Much Love As Always, Anya Marie xx
