Heyyyyyyyy, 

It somehow April already and that means the end of Uni for me. For our final year project we were set the task of creating a product that fills a gap in the market. I spent along time trying to come with an idea that not only was a gap in the market but something that I could use to showcase the skills I have learnt at University. I decided to create a magazine that feature up and coming fashion designers to the trade. The magazine I named Novvo, which means 'new' in Brazilian. It took me 6 months to create the magazine with a lot of collaborations taking place. Overall I am really excited and proud of the magazine I have produced, now fingers crossed for a good mark.

AMSTERDAM, AMSTERDAM, AMSTERDAM!!!!

For Dan's 21st birthday present I took him to Amsterdam (I know I'm the best girlfriend ever).

We went for 2 days and stayed at a small hotel called Alp Hotel, it was in the prefect location, about a 10 minute walk to dam square, would defiantly recommend. 

We crammed in as many activities as we could in the 2 days we had, I personally think that we had long enough. We went to the Heineken museum, although I don't like beer to much it was still really fun. We spent a lot of the time just walking around see all the sites and eating lots of yummy food. I did however managed to drag Dan to the Anne Frank house which I have wanted to visit since I was small, it was very moving and emotional, I would 100% say if your in Amsterdam go but make sure you book online before. 

This was mine and Dans first adventure together and I hope theres more to come!!!

It was my boyfriend (Dans) 21st birthday Sunday. We headed down to his home town Brighton on the friday and we went out to see Annie Mac, which was a good laugh. She was really good and we were right at the front. Then on the Saturday we just chilled during the day which was nice as being in third year we don't get many days of doing nothing together. We then headed out for dinner with his friends from home and then we just went to the pub. Then Sunday came and dans mum and dad took us out for a birthday breakfast at Cote before me and dan headed into London. Firstly we headed to Madame Tussauds, I hadn't been there since I was about 10 so it was good to go back as it was all very different and Dan had never been before. We also had a 2 for 1 voucher which I would 100% recommend getting ( we got it off a cereal box). We had to wait in a queue for about 20 minutes which was really good as I've heard stories of people waiting hours to get in. After this we headed for some lunch which was McDonalds, classic. Then we went to the cable car which I really wanted to as I haven't done this before. It was a good experience really cheap and you could see the whole of london. Although it was bit windy and we were swinging a bit. Once we had finished there we headed to dinner, we went to a place called Princi which I will definitely be returning to. It does the best pizza and the crust was to die for. Once we finished we decided to head to covent garden to grab a desert, we ended up Jamie Oliver's pop up restuarant. 

This was a lovely weekend and a great way to celebrate his 21st birthday.

Its 2016!!!

The new year has started and January is already almost over. I have done a fair few things this year already. Ive already had several nights out, one for two more of my friends 21st and then more back at uni. We have already had snow which was fun as my 2 year old niece came round and we built a snowman together. 2016 is going to be a big year for me I have three weddings to attend, one is my sisters and I'm being a bridesmaid, then I will also have my graduation.

 Lets see what this year hold, fingers crossed its another good one.

Yayay its almost christmas!!!

Three of my closest friends celebrated their 21st birthdays in the same week. We decided that the best way to properly celebrate with them was to go to london for a night out. 7 of us headed down to london and we located our apartment. We stayed in Shepards Bush this was fairly far out but it meant it was super super cheap. The apartment we stayed in was so nice although we didn't spend a huge amount of time in it. We went out for dinner to Gauchos which is a steak place. Although this was an expensive place we decided that as it was for three peoples birthday so we could afford it. The steak was amazing but I guess if you pay that much you expect it to be pretty good. We then went back to get ready for the night out, we also enjoyed a cheeky caterpillar cake. For the night out we headed to Soho and just went on a bar crawl. We went in about 4 or 5 bars and all just danced and had loads of fun. This was a great night out. 

Hopefully see you again for a nightout London.
