I've long been a fan of Clinique make up and skin care so when I heard about the Chubby in the Nude Foundation Stick I knew I'd just have to try it so I decided to take it on the ultimate road test - to Glastonbury Festival. I knew if it could prove itself there it would work anywhere.
Every year since I can remember I have been going to the Bristol International Balloon Fiesta and each year I always put it in my calendar. Its another reason why I love Bristol. The event runs every year for four days (Thurs-Sun) in August and is the largest annual meeting of hot air balloons in Europe. The city has plenty of great vantage points to see the balloons, such as the downs overlooking the Clifton Suspension Bridge, but I always venture to Ashton Court for the full experience of the ascent and the Night Glow which happens on the thursday and saturday evenings.
While my recent holiday was more about rest and relaxation than exploring somewhere new. I thought I'd put together a little photo diary of what I could probably class as my second (holiday) home. The old town has so much beauty within it's narrow streets with tiled-front houses and cobbled pavements to the scorching hot beach that lies alongside.
So a little while ago I mentioned coconut oil in my spring beauty essentials post and as it's such a great multi-purpose product I thought it was worthy of it's own post. I would go as far as saying that I would happily put it everywhere and anywhere but I don't want you to get the wrong impression of me. So here are my 5 top uses for Coconut Oil:
Glastonbury is on the horizon and yesterday morning I managed to go and pick up my ticket from the post office which was really exciting. As part of my preparation for going i've been thinking about the bare essentials to take as you have to pack lightly or if you're me last year, you'll end up leaving half of it in the car.
I thought i'd put together a little post about festival beauty and skincare as normal routine goes out of the window and tents are rubbish for natural lighting, if any lighting.
It's official this time in two weeks I will be at Glastonbury festival rocking out in my wellies. Having done other festivals previously such as Reading, last year I went to Glastonbury for the first time and it is in a league of it's own! As soon as you get there you step into a complete different world which is just mental. However, unlike other festivals you need to camp in a field for multiple days on end with limited facilities for washing, cooking and electricity. Here is my festival survival pack:
Last weekend I attended a beautiful wedding at Coombe Lodge near Bristol and I'm still glowing from being able to be part of such a magical day. The sun was shining, prosecco and champagne flowing and happiness was present in abundance. I thought the wedding was a perfect opportunity for my first ever outfit post here on Rachel-Emily. I found the idea of posing for outfit photos incredibly daunting but at the wedding I knew multiple photos would be taken anyway so hoped *fingers crossed* that I would be able to do my gorgeous dress justice. I probably need to work on my poses though!
