January always seems one of the toughest months of the year, but luckily it’s nearly over! If you’re still feeling a bit blue, I’ve put together a list of a few things that will hopefully help you shoo shoo those bad vibes away…

MY BUCKET LIST 2017
If 2016 taught me anything, it’s that life is too short to give a hoo-hah what people think. In the final few days of December, I decided that moving into the new year I’d try and focus on the positives, and get rid of any negativity in my life. I also thought about a lot of things I’d like to do, and that is how I ended up creating a bucket list for 2017.
THE GODS OF THE GOLDEN GLOBES
I absolutely love awards season 1- because I’m a huge film fan, and 2- because it’s always an absolute swoon fest!
I stayed up all night scrolling through Twitter, watching live video streams from the red carpet and drooling over actors as they posed for photos and collected awards.
Here are some photos of my fave lads from the Golden Globes and I tell you now, you might want to be sitting down for this…
A Little Recap…
Hello, and HAPPY NEW YEAR!
I’ve sadly neglected my blog over the Christmas period due to busy schedule and work commitments, but I’m sure I’ll learn to organise myself and my time with posts as my blog grows.
I thought I’d do a post here to say hello, and to do a little recap on 2016 before I fully throw myself into the new year. Don’t worry, I’ll keep it brief!
Burgess’ Buff Blokes 2016
So it’s that time of year where everyone reflects on their favourite films, favourite albums and, in my case, favourite men of the year. A friend cleverly came up with a fun name for it: #BurgessBuffBlokes2016!
This is, honestly, the most thought I’ve put into anything. I feel like I worked harder on this than I did for my degree. After 5 days thinking it through and numerous arguments with myself, I finally whittled my long list of 50-odd fellas down to 25…and here they are!
WARNING: You WILL swoon whilst looking through this blog post, so please take precautions in drinking plenty of water, and maybe sitting down in case of fainting. Thank you.

Gerard Cosmetics Purchase
I’m a huge fan of liquid matte lipsticks, so when I was browsing through Beauty Bay and spotted the new Hydra Matte Metallic Liquid Lipsticks from Gerard Cosmetics, I was immediately drawn in.
SOUNDS OF… NOVEMBER
So in October I promised that I’d be doing a ‘Sounds Of…’ playlist on Spotify each month consisting of 20 songs that I’m currently listening to…and here it is for November!
There’s a lot of cool new music about at the minute from the likes of Childish Gambino, Sia and DNCE so expect to hear those guys in there, alongside some other tunes from The Black Sheep Frederick Dickens, Casual Threats, LIFE, Justice, The xx, Avalanche Party and PLAZA…just to name a few!
Enjoy xo

Hailing from Hull, LIFE are a band that have gone from strength to strength recently, making a real name for themselves.
10 TIMES SEBASTIAN STAN STOLE YOUR HEART
If you don’t know who Sebastian Stan is, then I can only assume that you’ve been living under a rock.
When people ask me my hobbies, I find myself saying ‘saving photos of Sebastian Stan to my Pinterest‘ and I’m being 100% serious. He’s a God amongst men and my MCM every bloody week.
Here are 10 times he stole my heart, and probs yours too…
TV Shows To Binge Watch…
I’m a real sucker for a good drama and probably binge watch shows waaaay too much, but I’m willing to bet that I’m not the only one!
Now that the nights are getting darker and it’s getting colder, there’s nothing better than staying in for the night curled up on the settee with a cuppa and a good series.
I’ve put together a list of some of my absolute favourite shows that I’ve watched over the years, so if you’re looking for a new series to binge this Autumn, take a look! Maybe you’ll find something new that you end up loving, or maybe you’ll be reminded of how good a series is and end up revisiting it. Either way…enjoy!
