Versatile Blogger Award

I got a pleasant surprise a week or so back when I was told that the lovely Pretty in the Desert had given me a blog award! Thank you so much!! I would definitely recommend you guys to check out her blog, which is fantastic! :D

The rules for this award are:

1. Thank the person who gave you the award and link back to them in your post.
2. Tell us 7 things about yourself.
3. Award 15 recently discovered new bloggers.
4. Contact these bloggers and let them know they've received the award.

7 things about me:

1. I'm a really organised person.
   
2. I've recently become obsessed with candles. The one I'm currently burning 24/7 is a 'Christmas Cookie' Yankee Candle and I love it. I know Christmas has passed, but I don't care, I'm going to continue burning it!
   
3. One of my favourite perfumes is Chanel 'Coco Mademoiselle'.
   
4. I got a blackberry recently and am obsessed!
   
5. I've recently been going to the gym a few times a week. Earlier this week, I managed to run for 30 minutes on the treadmill. I was so proud of myself, since when I joined in November, I don't think I could even run 5 minutes!
   
6. I wish I was good at sport so that I could have joined a sports society at university.
   
7. I'm 20 years old and I still get id'd when buying the lottery :/ (You have to be 16 to buy the lottery, lol).
   

I decided not to tag another blogs, because I did one of these recently (Here) and I follow so many amazing blogs that I wouldn't even know where to begin! I just wanted to say another massive thank you to Pretty in the Desert for giving me this award, I really appreciate it! :D

xoxo, Joy

One Awesome Blog Award

I found out yesterday that I was lucky enough to have been awarded the "One Awesome Blog" award from Joy (WOO, same name!) at Happy-happy Joy-joy!! :D I was so excited to hear this, thank you so much! I really appreciate it. If you guys have a chance, check out Joy's blog which is full of great posts about beauty, among other things.

The rules that come along with this award are:

• Post about the award and copy the rules
• Link to the person who gave you the award
• Share 7 things about yourself
  
• Choose 3-5 blogs you would like to give the award to and link to them as well. Leave a comment on their blog to let them know! Important: The award is for unknown and/or new blogs only!

I was tagged in a "7 Things About Me" tag a while back, so I will try not to repeat myself.

1. My wardrobe mainly consists of black, grey and white.
   
2. I watch way too many American TV shows! Gossip Girl, 90210, Pretty Little Liars, Hellcats, The Big Band Theory, Deperate Housewives, How I Met Your Mother... The list could go on!
3. I am 5'4".
   
4. I can't wait for boot sale season to start again. I love going to boot sales to see what amazing bargains you can find there. Some of my best finds were a polaroid camera for £1, a Babyliss conical wand for £2 and a dress from Warehouse for 50p!
5. I love buying children's (well teen's) clothes. The clothes are usually the same as the adult ranges, except they're a lot cheaper! I normally buy the biggest age, which tend to be age 14-15 which is approximately the same as an 8/10.
6. While most Chinese people stereotypically have naturally poker straight hair, I have super wavy/curly hair.
7. I graduate from university next year... Scary!!

The blogs I choose are: (Although the award is supposed to be for unknown/new blogs, I've chosen blogs that aren't new or particularly unknown (They all have more followers than I do!), but I've chosen them because they're not heard about enough and need more recognition amongst the blogging community).

1. City Girl's Fashion Box
   
2. Little Love
   
3. The Doll on Fashion
   
4. P.S. It's Vida
   

I just wanted to say another massive thank you to Joy for giving me this award.

Before I go, I thought I'd let you know that you can now follow my blog on Bloglovin' :) I didn't add it myself, but came across it on there so I have now linked it to my account.
