Ready for Summer (2016)

Even though its technically not Summer yet, its been in the mid 80's for the past couple weeks, so I qualify that as Summer! Late Spring/Early Summer is my favorite time of the year, it's just getting sunny, the lilacs (my favorite flower) and other flowers are blooming, and people seem to just be happier. 


Summer scents are always my favorite, because they tend to be so light and fresh. As recommend by +Zoella I had to go into The Body Shop and check out the Piñita Colada scent line. Obviously, I absolutely love the Body Butter, but the whole line smells fantastic. Being able to open the doors of my house and let the natural, crisp air flow through my house makes me very relaxed and happy, adding on to why this time of the year is amazing. 


Summer fashion is also great, because it can be so stripped down and casual. In the Winter time you have to make all your different layers work together with everything else and it can be more work. Not that I'm saying I don't love that, but being able to take a break for the Winter style is fantastic. As you can tell from my last blog posts I am a fan of photography and in the Summer taking photos of nature, mostly flowers, makes me so happy and its one of my favorite hobbies. I just got a new camera, the Canon EOS M10, so I will be taking more photos and probably writing more blogposts about them! 


I hope everyone is having a great year so far (can you believe 2016 is almost half way over???), and I hope everyone has a lovely summer! Thanks,

Ryan xx

Favorite Starbucks Drinks ☕️❤️

This week on wanted to write a blog post about one of my favorite things, Starbucks! I go too Starbucks way to often and I am actually a gold member. Although I am a big Dunkin Donuts fan too, Starbucks will always have my heart. So, this week I wanted to share 3 of my favorite drinks!  1.) Caramel Iced Coffee (with light cream or almond milk, light ice and honey)  I am a big fan of iced coffee year round and caramel iced coffee is my favorite flavor! 2.) Cool Lime Refresher (with light ice) The cool lime refresher is nice drink for spring and summer, basically any warm day! Also sometimes I actually don't have them put the limes in because I don't love the lime rind in my drink! 3.) Pink Drink (Strawberry Acai Refresher, with coconut milk replacing the water and light ice) I know this drink is such a basic drink, but similar to the cool lime refresher it's good for any warm day and if I'm not in the mood for caffeine but I want a Starbuck...

Zoella Product Review ♡

As I have mentioned in previous blog posts Zoë Sugg, also known as Zoella, is one of my favorite YouTubers! Zoë also has a few product lines, the one I will be talking about today is her Zoella Beauty Line. So, I decided to buy a few of her products and try them out for myself! I know I might be a little biased with my reviews, but with products I try to be as honest as possible, but honestly these products are great, especially for their price! I tried out three products including, the Le Fizz (Fragranced Bath Fizzers), Wonder Hand (Hand Cream), and the Double Créme (Body Cream). I hope you enjoy! 1.) Le Fizz (Fragranced Bath Fizzers) I was actually most excited to receive this product! It smells just like macaroons and really falls apart quickly under running water. I think the smell is divine and I highly recommend trying this one out! Also I've gotten so many uses out of this one since it broken up into little bars! I typically use 3 bars per bath. 2.) ...

Easter Egg Nest Cupcakes:

This Easter I decided to try and make some Easter egg nests with vanilla cupcakes to sit on. First, I put together the vanilla cupcakes, which you can find the recipe on Tanya Burr's Youtube page (Just Search "Tanya Burr Chocolate Easter Nests" on YouTube). These were easy enough to make and I will say turned out quite well! It was an easy recipe too, not requiring many step, you basically just throw all the ingredients in the bowl and mix. Than I decide to take on the task of making the Easter egg nests, even though there are only two ingredients, chocolate and shredded wheat, this was the most difficult part of the while process. I found the recipe, basically what proportions of each to use, on Zoë's blog (www.zoella.co.uk). This task was most difficult, because you had to warm the chocolate up slowly without burning it. It took me a couple of attempts to not burn the chocolate and not boil the water to hard, but just to let it simmer. Also white chocolat...
