I have Friday favourites for you. It has been so long since I have done a Friday Favourites but I only want to do them I have really been loving stuff. I have some good stuff I wanted to share with you.

Favourite Hair Tool
I have fallen in love with my new 3 in 1 InStyler. I love how it adds more volume to the roots, that is a problem I have with my hair. This has made a big difference and I see results straight away. I bought it from lookfantastic.com it cost £69.00 but I do have a code to receive and extra £5 of which will only last until the 11th of this month so make sure you use it quick to benefit.

CODE: STYLER5 Expires 11th Feb 2014

Favourite Home Ware Purchase
As Dan and I are moving in together in May I have been able to buy things I wouldn't normally buy and I have a couple of things I really love but I wanted to share with you this glass jar from TK Maxx. It was only £6.99. I plan to fill it with Lucky Charms cereal which is my all time favourite cereal.






Favourite TV Show
I have really gotten back into watching Charmed. It's such a good series and I don't think there has been anything as good that is a similar series. I have got the box set and I have been working my way through each series.



What have you been loving this week?

I thought today I would share a Vlog with you, I have never done a Vlog on mu beauty channel and I am thinking I might start doing them every now and then. I felt quite nervous about doing it as it is a lot more personal, but I thought I would give it a go, if you haven't seen it then here you go...

Oh also there is only a few more days of my giveaway left so make sure you check that out to. 

Hope your all excited about Christmas.

Yesterday Dan and I went to Paris for the day, we thought we would do something a bit different in December than our usual day out in a local city or town so we decided to go to Paris for the day. We had such a nice day but we were crazy tired as we had to get up super early for our flight. When we got there we got the coach which I would totally recommend if you are flying to Orly airport it was the best option and at 20 euros we were more than happy. We went to the top of the Eiffel Tower had a stroll and a bit of shopping along the Champs-Elysees, we went on the big wheel and looked around the Christmas Market which had the most AMAZING macaroons. We had a nice pizza and went to a lovely cafe and then flew home. 

It was such a nice day and I wanted to share it with you with a few pictures I took. 

Hope you are all enjoying December and or preparing Christmas I have just pretty much finished all my shopping which is a nice feeling. I have some plans for YouTube videos so make sure you check those out this month.

So today I wanted to do a DIY this is a first for my blog, if I do a DIY I don't do a tutorial on my channel or a step by step on here, but I thought I would share this with you. I hop you have a go at doing this and make sure you Instagram or tweet it to me I would love to see if you do anything different, or if you just fancy giving it a go.

What you will need:
Canvas
Sprinkle Glitter
PVA glue
Paint brush
Stag head template
Scissors
Pencil
Sealant spray or Hairspray (I forgot to add it to the picture)

Step 1
Cut around the edge of the stag head.


Step 2
Draw around the edge of the stag head.




Step 4
Time to leave it for about 4 to 12 hours. I left mine for 12 just to make sure. Then you want to tap your canvas onto the brown paper to remove all the excess glitter, and make sure you pour the remaining glitter back into the glitter pot, there is no need for wasting precious glitter.


Final step
Spray it with sealant spray or hairspray I have heard that hairspray works to so I have used it for the first time and it seems to work well so far.


I hope you liked this DIY and found it useful I have been inspired by other peoples DIYs with different colours and different stag heads.

If you do decide to recreate this then please send it to my Instagram: goddessmnemosyne or tweet it to me @mnemosynetweet I would love to see some.

First I just want to say sorry for not doing a post in a really long time, I have had been really ill and then had loads on at work and both my blog and YouTube channel haven't been kept up to date but leading up to Christmas I really want to devote more time to both of my sites, which is probably crazy as Christmas is always so busy. Anyway lets jump into this weeks favourites...

Favourite Interest 

This week I have been loving watching movies I have watched 4 new movies, 3 being Christmas ones. Believe it or not I had never seen Home Alone until this week, I also watched Miracle on 34th Street which and then National Lampoons Christmas Vacation but my favourite movie I watched this week was the first The Hunger Games I really enjoyed this movie and now I need to take a trip to the movies to see the second one. Have you watched any good movies that I should be watching?

Favourite Make Up

I bought another eyeshadow palette, I need help I don't need to buy anymore. Anyway it is the MUA Undressed palette. 




Favourite Drink

This week I have started to get into having hot chocolate again, I don't ever drink hot drinks but as it gets closer to Christmas I start drinking hot chocolates. Dan and I popped out to a little cafe and I got this naughty drink. YUMMY!!!

During September I started my first series on YouTube which was quite exciting to think about what I was going to do. I decided to go with the theme of Top 5... I thought I would add it to my blog as well incase none of you sore it on my channel.

Hope you enjoy the videos let me know what you think, I always listen to all the comments and take them on board.

Hope your all having a great day.

It's finally Friday, I am so happy that it is Friday best day of the week in my opinion. So this week was mine and Dans 5 and half year anniversary (I know some people think we are weird for celebrating our half year but it means something to us) which made me think about all the amazing things we have experienced as a couple. Anyway this week I have a few things I am loving and I wanted to share them with you.

Favourite Beauty

This week well I should say month as I have been loving since I started using it has been a face mask by Amie, it smells so fresh and my skin feels so clean after I have used. It is quite a good price on Amazon. 




Favourite Scent

This one is a bit different as it isn't a candle or perfume but I am in love with the smell of cherries. I have the most amazing car smelly at the moment from Yankee Candle called Black Cherries (I posted it on my Instagram make sure you follow me so we can chat some more) I also have the same smell in a candle which as I am writing this I am burning it and the room smells AMAZING! I also have the Philosophy Cherry shower gel which also smells so good. 




Favourite Music

I have been going through a major flashback with my music this past week and have been playing the Backstreet Boys Millennium album on repeat in my car. It is such a good album and so easy to sing along to. Totally reminds me of when I was a teenager.  




What have you been loving this week? I would love to know...

Another friday favourites YAY! I love doing these posts as it reminds me of things I have really been enjoying over the past week. Happy Friday everyone I hope everyone is looking forward to the weekend I know I am, work is just crazy at the moment which is good because the time is flying. 

Anyway enough rambling lets get into the things I have been loving this week.

Favourite Technology

Ok so I know Netflix isn't an electronic object but it is a form of technology. I have been quite late in joining this site but OMG I don't know why I haven't been using Netflix all the time. I have been loving watching Documentaries and Netflix original series and movies I would have maybe never watched. It's such a great service and I am still on my free month which is great. 


Favourite Fashion

This week I bought this skirt from Boohoo.com it was such a bargain and is such good quality for the price of it. I totally recommend checking out the site and for any of you who are students don't forget to add your NUS discount (putting my education hat on). 



Favourite Candle

This past week I have been loving this wax tart. I know it is from the Yankee Candle Christmas collection and it's only September but it isn't a Christmasy sent, it is a sweet smell and just makes me want to eat marshmallows.

This week Dan and I went to Alton Towers which was so much fun I feel like I have post holiday blues (sad I know) because we had such a good time and the queues were so short. We went on the Smiler which to be honest I was a bit disappointed, I think it's because there has been so much hype that it was never going to meet the exception for me. Don't get me wrong I enjoyed it and it was a good rollercoaster but nothing mind blowing. Thirteen has to be a new favourite, it isn't a big ride that loops round and round but it was just really good fun with a great surprise which I think has been a well kept secret. We also went to the Water park inside Splash Landings (this is where we stayed) and that is great fun, if you haven't been then it is defiantly worth a trip.

I am a huge fan of Theme parks I have been so lucky to have been to many different parks around the world. I continue to love them and it makes me feel like a kid again, with the lovely warm donuts and hot dogs and the music, it's just a great experience.

Hope you like the pictures.

TIP TIME: Dan and I got it super cheap because we booked it in January and also went the week all the schools went back. This is the best time to go for queues and prices. We have been a couple of times around the same date and I would recommend this time to anyone.
