Halloween | Last Year

Today I bought my Halloween outfit for this year! I'm on a pretty tight budget recently, so bought the cheapest thing I could find. For the past two years I have been a cat and a leopard.. Both original and scary.. So this year I thought I would actually go as something somewhat scary. It's still not particularly scary, but it's one of the things I'm scared of most in life..

Autumn | My Favourite Season

Autumn is officially here and I am so happy! For me autumn is by far the best season. As a child I feel like I overlooked autumn as it was the awkward season in-between my summer holiday and Christmas. Now it’s the great season in between being sweaty and being freezing. I am one of those people who is always hot, so when its summer it means being pretty sweaty. I am also not a massive fan of summer clothes. I don’t mind winter weather so much, but I do prefer the weather above 0 degrees.

September | Month in Pictures


As I have mentioned a few times on other blog posts, September was quite a busy month for me. I moved back to Uni and into a new house, was ill numerous times and went out quite a bit. I wasn't planning on doing one of these month in pictures posts as I don't use Instagram a lot, and that's what other bloggers use to do this type of post. But after waiting for what feels like forever, I finally got a new phone. The iPhone 6! So all of these photos are from my iPhone which means they are only from half a month (19th September).

Baking | University Style


Today I was having a lazy Sunday with two of my housemates Lucy and Dill, and we decided to finally make the Barbie cupcakes which have been sat in the cupboard for ages. I thought I'd take a few pictures to help you make your own Barbie cupcakes. Before you read this, this is a bit of a joke post.. Don't take it too seriously!

Chanel SS 15 | Feminism


Every season, Chanel find a way to make their collection unique and somewhat controversial compared to other catwalk shows, and SS 15 definitely did not disappoint.

Nars Sheer Glow Foundation and Eyeliner

I have been lusting after Nars Sheer Glow Foundation for so long, as its been raved about by pretty much every beauty blogger. If you have read my previous blog post about what foundation I normally use, then you will know I find it quite hard to find foundation which suits my skin type. I find that although MAC Pro Longwear foundation is great for my skin as it gives me a long lasting full coverage, it feels a little thick on my skin.

Things I've Learnt From Blogging So Far


This Summer I decided it was time to make a blog. I've started so many over the past few years which I haven't taken seriously enough, so have never had more than a few blog posts on. After finding I had far too much spare time on my hands over the Summer, I created Peach Blossom. I have been blogging properly for just over a month now and I have learnt so much about the 'blogging world' which I didn't know before.

New University Bedroom!


So I have just moved into my new University house and I love it! I've come back to Manchester for the week to move in a few bits and do a few shifts in work so I haven't fully moved in yet. I've only moved in things that I know I wont need when I go back home for a few weeks before I officially move in. That's why my wardrobes so bare and there's not much decoration.

#TeenBlogSeries Post 2 | Foundation and Brow Routine

Makeup Revolution Mini Haul and Review


I have seen Makeup Revolution raved about on so many blogs, so I thought it was finally time to jump on the band wagon. I will be the first to say that I can be a makeup snob and will always think cheap makeup is really bad. After seeing Makeup Revolutions prices and all of the amazing reviews, I thought it would be stupid not to order a few bits.

MTV VMA Awards 2014 Red Carpet


The MTV VMA Awards were held last Sunday in LA. Although I was interested in who won the awards, I was more interested in what everyone wore on the red carpet. For me, I think the VMA Awards is an award show were you can take risks and don't have to be as formal as other award shows. Some of the most memorable/worst red carpet outfits ever are from the VMAs! Below I have chosen some of my favourite trends, and who I believe was the worst dressed.

#TeenBlogSeries Post 1: 10 Facts About Me


So this is the first blog post for the #TeenBlogSeries and it is to do a 10 facts about me. I have already done a random facts about me post so I decided to google about me questions and came up with a post from http://allysrandomage.blogspot.co.uk/2007/06/101-random-questions.html. There is 800 random questions on it so instead of searching through them all, I found a number generator and these were the 10 numbers which came out first.

Purple and Blue Eyeliner Review


Recently I have seen so many celebrities wearing coloured eyeliner. Like most people, I tend to stick to black, brown and white when it comes to my eyeliner, so I thought it would be a fun idea to play around with coloured liner.

Liebster Award

So I’ve been nominated for the Liebster Award by two people which shocked me as I’ve only started blogging properly since the beginning of August! Instead of only answering one person’s questions and ignoring the others, I've decided to choose my favourite 6 questions from each. Thanks Yasmin from Twenty One Press and Jodie from Jodies Jottings for the nominations!

V Festival



Last weekend I went to V Festival Weston Park and it was really good! My friend Lucy managed to get VIP tickets two weeks before we went, so we didn't have much time to prepare.

Surviving University: Part 1


So after being at University for 2 years, I thought I’d share some of my top Uni tips which would be useful to new/current/future students. This post will mainly be aimed at students living away from home, but a lot of them could still be used if you’re living at home.

Summer Lips and Nails


This blog post is about my favourite Nail Varnish and Lip products that I've been using this Summer. For some people Summer means bright colours, but I'm a little colour shy so I like to stick to pastel colours.

Vision Board

Images from Pinterest

For so long I have wanted to create a vision board but just never really had the time and items to create one, so I decided to make one on my computer. I am one of those people who have a 100 things to do before I die list, places i want to visit and so on.. So I thought I'd share with you my vision board for the next year.

Maybelline Lasting Drama Gel Liner Pen Review


I've seen a few mixed reviews on Benefit They're Real push up liner, so I thought I would review the drugstore dupe, which is Maybellines Lasting Drama Gel Liner Pen. I bought this from Superdrug for £8.99.

July Monthly Favourites


This month I have been loving these items. There were a few more items that I was going to add to this, but I have just moved out of my University house so everything is all over the place. Ill make sure I blog about those items sometime in August or even add them to my August favourites!

Holiday To France

So I've just come back from my holiday to France where I stayed in a French Villa in Cahors (South West France). The house was pretty big and was in 30 acres of land, which was apparently a nature reserve (I saw a few deers, and baby deers!). There was a big swimming pool and somehow I managed to get the master bedroom which had its own sofas and table in. I have now realised when I look for a home in the future, I need a sofa area in my bedroom!

This villa would of been amazing, if there was actually any sun! I know its only the beginning of July but the entire holiday it just rained and there was so many thunderstorms! I had to go swimming whilst it was raining a number of times.. fun. At least the WiFi was good.. I was only there for a week so I didn't go to many places apart from restaurants and little villages so there isn't any pictures from outside the villa. Anyway I've attached a few photos of the Villa to show how good it would of been if it was sunny!

Kelsey's Everyday Makeup

Today I thought I would share with you my everyday makeup. Before I start I just want to mention that these are products I am using at the moment. If I have particularly bad/dry skin one day I may use different products, but this is just what I’d use on an average day. Also, I am not a makeup artist so yes my makeup isn't perfect.

Coachella 2014: Jenner Girls

Before I write this post, I just want to mention that I know its been over 2 months since the first post. I've been so busy with Uni assignments all being at once and work, but now I've only got one exam to go and then its Summmmeeeer! I will be spending a lot of time on this blog as at the moment I haven't got much planned!

So as I'm sure many of you have been, I've been obsessed with seeing what all the celebrities wore at Coachella. Coachella seems to be literally filled with some of the biggest celebrity's. It is definitely my aim to go one year, imagine a festival in the desert!

Anyway, is it just me or have Kendall and Kylie Jenner literally been on form with everything they wear recently?! I stalk their Instagram photos all the time and they uploaded so many pictures from Coachella. I'm not going to a festival this year, but just looking at these photos and their fashion makes me want to go to one so much! Everything from their clothes and accessories to their hair and makeup is amazing. They have definitely set the standard for all festival goers this year!

I dont follow many people at the moment so please comment on my posts and ill make sure I follow you! I am only new to Blogspot.

But for now byeeeee

Trend: Yellow

Okay so for some reason at the moment, I’m obsessed with the colour yellow. Most of my clothes tend be black or another dark colour, but when I’ve been shopping recently I’ve been so attracted to yellow! I am pretty colour shy normally, with the only type of colour being either on my nails or lips. I have really been trying to brighten up my wardrobe by adding colours, and even bought the brightest pink shirt the other week. I debated for a while after whether it was too bright but my friends reassured me it was fine and now I love it!

Anyway I saw a yellow oversized top from River Island last time I went shopping (see picture above) and decided, after asking every single person I could whether a yellow top is a bit strange, to buy it. So far it’s just been sat in my wardrobe as I haven’t quite decided where to wear it yet. I thought this type of casual top will go with jeans and will be quite easy to add to my everyday wardrobe without being too bold.

I am currently in the hunt for the perfect Yellow bag. Accessories are probably the easiest way to brighten up an outfit. PS. I like structure in my bag. I have no time for slouchy bags, too much messing around and loosing things!

Catwalk- John Galliano
Top- River Island £25

Heels- ASOS £42
Dress- Zara £45.99
Bag- River Island £28
Jacket- Miss Selfridge £45

John Galliano S/S 2014 Collection 

I just want to add about how much I love John Galliano’s S/S 2014 collection! Everything from the shapes of the clothes to the detailing are so unique and interesting. Yellow, Pink and Orange are the main colours for this collection and reminds me of something Barbie would wear, if I’m honest. I am pretty obsessed with those shoes as well.. Even if they are a little strange!

Barbie designers.. Take note!




I hope you enjoyed reading this,
Love @Kelseyxx

About Me


Kelsey
Hi! So as you can tell my names Kelsey and I am from Liverpool but living in Manchester, and I'm 20. My dream in life is to become rich and famous.. but if that doesn't work out I want to work within retail, hopefully as a merchandiser one day! My favorite shops are River Island and ASOS, and I love black. Black is pretty much all I wear (I am trying to inject colour into my wardrobe though!) 

I am slightly obsessed with the Kardashians and Makeup. Although I study fashion, I would say makeup is my hobby. It might sound stupid but I love it, I love how it can make you look like an entirely different person if you want it to. 

In my spare time, apart from eating and watching Netflix, I watch a lot of Youtube. This is also where my awareness of the blogger community came from. I love reading Zoella, Tanya Burr and Lily Pebbles blogs. My favorite Youtuber is Tyler Oakley.

Anyway I would love it if you got in touch by commenting on my blog posts or following me on my various social networking sites, as I currently don't know many bloggers! I will definitely follow back and read all of your blogs!
