Q&A With Kayla

Hello Everyone! Today I will be doing a Q&A. I am actually going camping with one of my friends until tuesday and won't be able to post so I thought I would quickly put up a post today before I leave.  Over on Instagram I asked you to ask me some questions and today I will be answering them for you!

@sunnyloves asked....

If you could be anyone in the world for one day, who would it be?

This is a hard one. I would definitely want to be a celebrity of some sort. Maybe someone like Ashley Benson and spend a day filming on set of Pretty Little Liars. But I love Nina Dobrev, she is travelling with friends and relaxing and she is gorgeous. So either Ashley Benson or Nina Dobrev.

Who inspires you?

As a blogger definitely Zoella she has become so successful and I love her blog.

Current Favourite Clothing Store?

I am currently loving City Beach. It is an Australian store which has a lot of surf brands and I have been regularly scrolling online adding things to my cart (not buying anything though). I also have been loving Cotton On & Ghanda!

Favourite Song?

Whenever someone asks me this question it usually takes me ages to answer. I am sitting here scrolling through my spotify, no idea about my answer... After changing my mind about 10 times I have gone with 'Never Forget You By Zara Larsson & MNEK'

@mylifeasmilly asked...

Favourite Hot Drink?

Definitely either a Hot Chocolate or Chai Latte.

Favourite thing to blog about?

I definitely love these kind of posts where its more chatty but I also love just going places taking loads of photos and sharing them with you!

Favourite Holiday Destination?

I would have to say Thailand. I have been to Thailand 3 times and going again in March. We have stayed at the same resort all 3/4 times and I have a friend named Jump who works at the Pool Bar.

@vibeslikevogue asked...

What would be your go to Summer Outfit?

I am actually having 2 posts about Summer Outfits coming soon but definitely just a cute jumpsuit with flats or converse.

@elliekateblog asked...

Why do you like fashion/Whats your favourite thing about it?

I love going shopping and finding clothes that I love, matching things together and finding outfits that I become obsessed with. 

Thats all the questions I will be answering today! As I said I am going camping with my best friend Molly until Tuesday and won't be able to post but I will be checking Instagram & Twitter and posting a couple of photos whilst I'm there. Make sure to follow me on Instagram & Twitter my username is @kaylahopeblog so you know when I am doing another Q&A.

Sand Between My Toes

Yesterday I went down to the beach with one of my best friends Summer. We went down bright an early and managed to take some wonderful photos. We watching the sunrise whilst listening to the waves crash against the water. We both had a wonderful time and I thought I would share some of my favourite photos with all of you.

I am posting again tomorrow so look forward to that!

Down By The Sea

I love going down to the sea. Walking along the sand. Listening to the waves hit the rocks. Feeling the cold fresh breeze hit your skin. You feel so relaxed and the atmosphere is so calm. If your like me and find walking your dog a chore, walking them along the beach is a perfect idea. Letting them walk in a new environment and explore a different setting, both you and your 4 legged friend will have the time of your life.  *Starts Singing Time Of My Life from Dirty Dancing*

My Summer Skincare Routine

About a year ago my face was in really bad condition, I had a really bad rash around my nose and I was breaking out really bad. I then started washing my face and developing a proper skincare routine. Since March last year my routine has changed because of trying new things and weather differences. Today I will we telling you my Summer Skincare Routine which I do twice a day.

The First Thing I do is wash my face for this I use The Body Shop Aloe Gentle Face Wash. Most of the products I use are from The Body Shop Aloe Kit which I received for Christmas. These products are perfect for Summer since they contain Aloe Vera which is great for sunburn. I apply the foaming face wash to my face and then I work it into my skin using The Body Shop Face Brush. After I finish cleaning my face I wipe it off using a cloth from the Body Shop which is probably the silkiest thing I have ever felt in my life.

Once Everything is washed off I use The Body Shop Aloe Calming Toner. I squirt a generous amount onto a Cotton Pad which you can get from basically any supermarket and wipe it all over my face.

The last step I do is Moisturise. I use The Body Shop Aloe Soothing Day Cream. This moisturiser is really thick and a little goes along way. It is very soothing and calm on the skin.

When I am having a Pamper Night which is once or twice a week I add a couple more steps to my Skincare Routine.

On a Pamper Evening I love to use a Facemask one of my favourites is the Cucumber Facemask from Montagne Jennesse. This facemask smells amazing & feels really refreshing on the skin. This facemask is also a peel off so you can get the wonderful satisfaction when you peel it off. 

Another thing I do once or twice a week is exfoliate. I use The Body Shop Tea Tree Squeaky Clean Scrub. This scrub spells like eucalyptus and I basically apply it to make face rubbing it in gently and leaving it on for a minute or so before washing it off.

So that is my Summer Skincare Routine, I hope you like it & I would defiantly recommend all of these products. I will be back again very soon with another post but for now good bye.

Love you all

MY NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONS

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! This is my first post of 2016, the year where I will be improving my blog. As its my first post for the new year I thought I would start off telling you guys my New Years Resolutions. 

Be More Organised - As I said in my 'What I Got For Christmas' I really want to be more organised this year. I have 3 planners and 2 calendars which I will be using. I feel by jotting everything down it will make me more motivated to do everything, let alone remind me to do it.

Procrastinate Less - Along with 80% of the world I procrastinate ALOT! Of course you can not stop yourself from procrastinating full stop but you can do it slightly less. When I know I have a post going up tomorrow I should write it there & then. When I know I have homework do it then don't wait for the next day. 

Blog Post At Least Once a Week - During the year I am going to try post twice a week but sometimes its hard so I will make sure that there will always be at least one post up each week. I am aiming to really focus on my blog this year. For my birthday I will be buying a template which I believe will just boost my blog to the next level. I will be having so much better content, better photos, better writing & I can't wait for it all to happen!

Be More Happy - I want to smile more, not be as stressed, not worry as much. Quite self explanatory.

Make my Instagram Theme Goals - I have always wanted to have an Instagram Theme that people admire & find inspirational. I am currently taking heaps of photos for my theme that will probably be activated in about a weeks time. I am aiming for a bright theme (like @macbby11 or @adailydoseofmillie) that gives out a positive energy & happy vibe. I am so excited for it.

Those are my New Years Resolutions for this year. I will keep you updated on how I go and I really hope to stand by all of these.

Love You All
