Little Changes

Heey,

WELCOME TO THE BEAUTY STUFF!



You may have noticed that my blogger has changed! I really love my new theme! It's a different background and different header (plus a different name). I changed my name for a few reasons, the most important was because I felt like it didn't really say anything about my blog, it was just a name that I made up when I was just thinking of blogging, if you read my first ever post, you can see that I wasn't very experienced!

Secondly I thought that even though I liked my layout, I preferred the purple space background that was on the header I made. Then thirdly, I do love everything that I have posted and I'm not ashamed because I know that I have improved massively. However, I do want to really put some effort into my posts because I feel like they have been slaking and I haven't been promoting it very much so the only subscribers I had were my close friends from school.

The least reason I changed it was because I have an Instagram with the name: @_thebeautystuff and I love my account, it has almost 100 followers and seen as I only made it just over a month ago, I was pretty proud! Anyway, I wanted everything to match (yes, I'm that type of person) so I created a new twitter as well which is also @_thebeautystuff.


That's all for today, I hope you don't mind the changes, please subscribe for new posts on Wednesdays and Saturdays!

Hugs and kisses,
Liv xoxo

P.S Because this post was so short, I will upload another one either later today or tomorrow xx

Shopping in Pandora!

Heey,

So first of all I would like to say a big happy birthday to my mummy. She's another year older today (1st March) and it's her 50th, so a very special occasion! As it was so special she decided on getting a keepsake she she could use everyday. This was a Pandora bracelet with charms.

Originally, my mum wanted a normal bracelet with charms from Pandora's new essence range. But it wasn't explained to her that these charms wouldn't fit the normal bracelet, only the essence bracelet! The reason this was an issue was because my Mum didn't like the essence bracelet and also, all my family were going to get her an essence charm and choose which one out of the list my Mum made. My sister Kate organised it all with how much everyone wanted to spend and then what charm they would give. So now everything had to change.

Sunday the 23rd of February, my mother, my sister and I went on a little trip to Pandora to sort this all out! Mum ended up with having to choose all new charms to fit the normal bracelet while my sister and I helped her (or hindered).



In the end, everything worked out and all the charms were sorted. This is the one that I found and my Mum loved, it was £30 so it's a joint birthday and mothers day, seen as they're so close!




I'm not sure on the name of this charm but it's 5 sterling silver hearts with little dot type things around the outside of each heart. The theme my Mum went for was plain silver with mother of pearl and one pendant in the middle.

That was a very expensive shop in Pandora but while my sister was paying, my Mum and I went to Waterstones which is an English book shop and she bought me 2 books which I will show you in my next post!

Hugs and kisses
Liv xoxo
