Reflections and Positivity

Well I can safely say it's been an awful week on the little planet we call the earth, so many lives, all lost needlessly, in Norway, China and of course in Camden. All lives are precious no matter who, or how someone has lived their life, everybody is someones son or daughter, brother, sister or friend, and I don't think we should forget that x
Anyways looking forward with love and positivity, things are looking brighter in LouLouLand, I've had a bad few weeks if I'm honest, feel less than motivated, irritable and sometimes as if I'm wasting my time even bothering to blog. I don't know what triggered it but I've fell a little out of love with social media, and I've started to feel some of the pressures and irritations that it brings. So again, and yes I sound like a broken record I am going to focus on the positives, you may notice a slightly reduced twitter presence but I need to distance myself from some of the negative stuff that keeps occurring, when your not in a good place you need to keep yourself as happy as possible, so that's what I'm going to do x
Thankfully I'm feeling more positive about my blog now already I may not have as many followers as some people but the ones I have are super loyal and I really appreciate everyone of you x This week on LouLouLand you can expect to see quite a few posts including this months My Pure reviews, a NOTD, and hopefully the next installment in my Budget Beauty Series - I know I promised this one last week but I didn't anticipate the sheer amount of pictures that I had, lol I will probably end up splitting the post into two, I am nothing if not through lol
Anyways I am sorry if this post feels like a bit of a vest but sometimes you just need to let it out x Thanks for reading and above all thanks for following xx

Monday, Monday

Hey my loves hope you all had a fabulous weekend mine wasn't up to much if I'm been honest, so I've decided to start the week in a positive fashion. I've decided to call the end to my weekly goods and bads posts, to be honest I am sick of even looking at or thinking about negative things. Maybe this isn't just a blog change, maybe it's a lifestyle change - I really spend to much of my life think of bad things. Instead Monday's on my blog are going to be a positive thing, a look forward to the week ahead and what you can expect to see on my blog oover the next 7 days.
My main posts on LouLouLand this week are going to focus on our hands, I have a review of a fabulous hand care product coming up, and the first part in my change your nail polish series. I have no hauls planned, except if my H&M order ever comes <rollseyes> this week is focused on making money - I spent a lot of the weekend listing on ebay ( click here to see my listings) and there are still a few bits in my blog sale which must go!

Anyways I'm going to watch the tennis and in particular Rafa ;) I might even have some strawberries and cream, just a little you understand I'm still on my diet and dropped another pound this week :) So I hope you all have a good week, adn I hope you keep popping back to LouLouLand xxx

7 Days - Scarves and Blusher

I've decided to do a weekly post for you and for myself really, on everything that I've loved or discovered this week, or anything that has influenced me in any positive way - I spend too much time thinking negative thoughts and I really should look at some of the positives no matter how small.

5 major things this week :)

1. First up this week is Nars Orgasm blusher - I have had this for ages but for some reason I just haven't wore it for quite a while. Well I have rediscovered it big style I have worn it solidly for the past few days and I love it makes me look so glowy and healthy - I am in love with this all over again




2. Second up, my Barbara Hulanicki girl print scarf from her capsule collection for Top Shop - gorgeous soft silk and a gorgeous colour and pattern - I love this and will wear it lots- sorry for the teeny tiny pic




3. The Staff at Spire Hospital Washington for being so great with my mum and treating her like she really matters




4. Linessa Exotic Sorbet Ice Cream Lollies - exactly like Soleros but from Lidl - exotic fruit lolly with a yummy ice cream centre




5. QVC Craft Day - I love my card making and scrapbooking so a day full of lovely things to buy (I am being good don't worry), and loads of hints and tips - soothing relaxing and just what I need

Positivity and Acceptance

Received a link to this site from one of my new Facebook friends - although this is her site - it has made me realise I am not the only one and I can relate to most things that she says here. Read it and learn more about me by learning about the condition that has shaped who I am.
