a weekend vlog

Hey guys, 

Sometimes I have fun weekends, which are often few and far between, but hey they are there none the less. I thought that since I have been doing alot of sit down chatty videos recently, it would be nice to do more of a raw vlog, so you get to see more of my personality and who I am. I can't say for my first attempt it is brilliant but hey, this is a learning curve, right. 

I spent the weekend with my boyfriend, where we spent the morning roaming around Richmond park, in search of deer (yes we found them). We also came across a rope swing, which I had far too much fun on, I am pretty much a kid at heart. 

We then made our way into London, so that my boyfriend could get the train home *cries*. I then chatted about the struggle of long distance relationships, so if any of you would like a full video/ blog post on this, then please do let me know, and if I can help someone else out there going through the same thing, then that would be amazing. I know too well how lonely it can often be. 

Anyway, enough of my rambles, I have included the vlog below if you would like to see the things I got up to. Let me know if you like it, and you would be interested in seeing more.

50 facts about me

Hey guys, 

If you are anything like me you are kind of nosy. (Just being honest) I'm obsessed with watching peoples 50 facts about me, or just those sort of tags in general. I thought it would be quite a nice idea for me to do one, so you guys can get to know a little bit more about who I am, what I like/dislike and just my personality. I'm warning you now, I struggled to come up with 50 facts, so read into that what you wish. 

I would love to know a random fact about you, so I get to know you guys a little bit better :)

autumn and winter try on haul

Hey guys, 

I have recently been loving the change in weather, now that we are in Autumn, those cold mornings so many people hate them, but me, I love them. I'm completely obsessed with autumn winter fashion, and if I am honest with you, I personally think that what the high-streets have to offer this season is perfect, the trends are my kind of thing. I mean a girl can never have too many knitted jumpers, right!? 

I've been a bit spendy recently, and can you blame me, with asos offering free next day delivery. I managed to pick up some lovely inexpensive pieces from asos, topshop, zara and H&M. 

I have uploaded a new youtube video so you can see what I have bought and I have even inserted a try on for you all as well. 

I hope you enjoy.

get ready with me

I decided to do a chatty get ready with me, for a evening out with the girls. I've kept my makeup simple, but have used a colour chameleon eye pencil by Charlotte Tilbury just to take the look from day to night. As its getting a little chilly now, I thought it was the perfect excuse to get away with wearing a nice big knit with a skirt, keeping it less casual for an evening out. 

Let me know if you like this look

Homeware haul

I'm obsessed with homeware. Anyone else with me on that one? I'm always on the look out for new pieces to make my flat feel a little more cosy and I notice that it makes such a massive difference, I feel so more relaxed and at home. I thought I would make another youtube video with the bits and pieces I have recently picked up. All items I purchased are listed on my youtube. Let me know if you like the video or the items I have shown.

Malta video

I recently took a much needed trip away to Malta, with my boyfriend and two friends. Its such a beautiful place and it was amazing to get some sunshine and swim in the sea. I decided to compile the video clips I have together and make my first vlog style video. I hope you enjoy watching the video, let me know what you think.

Have any of you visited Malta before?

obsessed with marble

* these items were kindly gifted but all opinions are my own

I feel like I am not the only one who is completely obsessed with marble, honestly I see it everywhere. Doesn't it just look so chic and classy though! I've seen people with marble laptops for years and i've always wished mine looked the same, instead of the plain boring silver. 

Well now here it is, my jazzed up laptop with a beautiful marble print.

Both the phone case and the marble laptop print are from a company called caseapp they have hundreds of designs online, not to mention you can customise your own laptop skin or case just by uploading your own personalised photograph onto case app. I honestly could not be happier with both of these products, the phone case is sturdy and I feel as though it will protect my phone well. All of the products are really affordable pricing (as I know some phone cases can be mega expensive). Not to mention I have fed my obsession of marble even further.

Case app have kindly given me a 20% discount code for all my followers, so you can get a new case or skin a little cheaper. Just type in the code JESSICALAAR20 at the checkout to get your discount. 

let me know if you buy anything from caseapp or if you have used them before, I will definitely purchase from them in the future as im obsessed with my new marble designs.
