Stripey

Stripey, hit or a miss?

Up and out of the way!

Recently I have come to love seeing people with their hair tied up in a pony tail, whether its simply taking back with little bit of hair hanging down, having your hair rapped around the hairband its self or even have your pony tail curled or designed in some complicated way! I also love the look of people putting their hair up in a pony tail but bringing it down over one shoulder. 

A lot of celebrities wear their hair up with complicated pony tail designs and little bits pushed up or plaited! I think it looks really nice plus its up and out of the way so it won't annoy you!

I have never mastered how to wrap hair around my hairband, although I would quite like to be able to do it as I think it looks really perfect when people have it done :)

A model with a simple pony tail and quiffed up hair 

Jessica Simpson with a wavy pony tail, hair wrapped around the hair band, two pieces of hair taken back and  fastened with a grip and then her hair fringe left to hang

Another model with all hair taken back into a sleek straight pony tail with the hair wrapped round the hair band

Nicole Richie with her hair in a pony tail, hair wrapped round the head band and then brought over her left shoulder

What do you think of this style? Are there any styles in particular you like?

Treat your feet

Hello! Went to school today for the first time in about 3 weeks which was a bit of a pain but its like a day and then a 4 day weekend which is pretty good I think! We had a whole school picnic on the school terrace which was then followed by a debate about the Royal Wedding and about whether or not it should be a national celebration! They were both better then I expected them to be!

After that I popped into town with my mum for a bit and got a foot pedicure from fish! Haha i know it sounds crazy but recently this little area in a shop in town called REEFEET has opened. They are these little fish called Garra Rufa Fish that originated from Turkey! People had been going to Turkey to get this pedicure done for years so people decided to get the fish imported and open little spas in the United Kingdom and then of course Jersey!

But basically it was amazing and my feet feel so soft now and that was only after 15 minutes, so next time I go I will definitely stay in for a little longer! Its amazing how little fish can do that! Its £15 for 15 minutes or £25 for half an hour so I would definitely recommend it! Even if you think it looks horrible, its not and it doesn't hurt at all! If anything it tickles!

Here is a picture of what the fish look like!

Garra Rufa Fish :)

If you want it done and your not too sure where your nearest spa is you can always go online and find out and even book online if you want, but if you just go into the spa without booking it makes no difference!

Here is a link :)  http://www.reefeet-jersey.com/

Have a look and see what you think! Its well worth the money!

Hope everyone enjoys the long weekend!

Sunny Sunday X2

Sorry i haven't done a blog post in a while, I'm such a terrible blogger!

Anyway on Friday a group of us all went down to St Brelades Beach which was great and then today i have been sunbathing in the garden doing work as i have so much of it for the holidays!

Glad we have time off school finally as its a long break because of all the bank holidays!

Hoping to start getting a tan and be able to go to the beach more often although the next few days aren't meant to be greatt! Oh well it'll brighten up and then i can spend as much time as possible in the beautiful sun :)

Activities week for school!

At the end of every school year, the last week before we break up for summer we get the chance of activities week where we can choose one activity to do either on island or off island. The last two years i have done on island activities and i decided this year that i wanted to do an off island activity with some friends.

So im off to france for four days avec one of my very good friends hannah :) im really looking forward to it and i think its going to be great fun!

We are going to two theme parks for the first two days and then on the third we get to go to Disney Land Paris!! I havent been in ages and cant wait to go! And then on the last day we head back to St Malo and get to go in the Madeline shopping centre for most of the day which should be fun :)

here are some pictures of where we are going :)

Futuroscope :)
