Getting Organised| Summer to Autumn Wardrobe

Another organisation post today, and this wasn't planned but it was something I have been meaning to do for weeks now and I finally took the time to take the plunge and clear out my wardrobe so that I can get out all my autumn stuff and put majority of my summer stuff away. 

So, my room started out looking like this and it looked like a mess with everything everywhere and no room to move about. But, in an actual sense it looks a lot better than it seems my clothes is kind of in piles of clothes that needs to go away and things on hangers but then it failed and now its a big mess. 

The first thing I did was put all of my summer clothes into this storage box from Morrisons so that they are all neatly put away and out of my site for the next 6 months. This box includes vests, dresses and strappy t-shirt things. Then the plan is to move this into my cupboard in six months and the jumpers in the box! Genius I know.

Majority of my clothes are actually folded up into different piles and on two shelves, the top one has all my nice tops/everyday tops. The back two piles are the things I would wear with leggings and then the front two with jeans. The bottom shelf consists of pj's, and lounge-wear which I have a lot of because I prefer my jogging bottoms rather than my jeans! It also has a whole pile of leggings because every girl needs them!

Then on to the hanging bit of my wardrobe, there are a few things that have to stay in there. On the left hand side is all my formal wear so that its easier to reach and get to and then the right hand side is my leavers hoodie and then Indian suits which don't have a home anywhere else.

Then in the middle I have my kimono, dresses that I can still wear in the winter with tights and then followed my jumpers. And then more jumpers, I own a lot of winter clothing but its my favourite time of year by far. I then have my leather jackets in there along with cardigans.

And that's it, my very small but very organised wardrobe! Have you re-arranged your clothes recently?

Lets' Talk; Dealing with Stress.

Stress. The word is quite scary isn't it? But a word and feeling that we all have to deal with, some point in our life there will be times where we have to 'stress'. But don't be alarmed and have a breakdown I have a few helpful tips to help you out, and I've come to the point in my life where all I seem to do is stress and panic. Ultimately, relieving stress and calming ourselves down - whether through attending therapy, practicing self-care, or, through alternative and natural methods such as the use of terpenes - provides clear health benefits to the human body that cannot be denied.

Stress is a type of feeling that we get when we react to particular events and situations, it's basically your body's way of facing the challenge and preparing to meet that tough situation but with lots of other things mixed in like alertness and strength. So, what exactly is stress?

Some Handy Tips!

Relieve the Stress - If you need something to help relieve you of the stress and help you calm down, try taking some psychoactive gummies. They can promote relaxation, foster sleep quality, calm nervousness, and support general mental health.

Get Some Sleep - Such a basic tip. but one that I and so many other people forget. Between school work, different activities and meeting up with friends, it can be really hard to get enough sleep, especially during the week when are brains are working super hard. They say that we all should really get about 9 hours sleep, but that seems like an impossible amount of time right? Well its not! To get every hour of sleep, cut back on watching TV or engaging in a lot of screen time in the late evening hours (i am guilty of this big time). Another thing is that try to avoid drinking caffeine late in the day because it won't kick in until later in the evening when you are ready to sleep.

Focus on your strengths - I also recommend spending some time really thinking about the things you’re good at, and find ways to do more of those things because trust me they will make you happy. Focusing on your strengths will help you keep your stresses down a little. For me, I find something relaxing like blogging! I love doing this when I feel stressed because it calms me down a little bit and reminds me that I can breathe. 

Talk to someone - Its so much easier dealing with stress if you talk to someone about what it is that is bothering you so much, you may think that they don't understand but in fact they understand more than you think and will help you overcome your problem. 

I decided to ask some of my friends too about how they deal with stress, and this is what they had to say..

Nicole - 'Talk to your mum about it if it gets tough, this means you can express you're feelings and have a good cry and not take it out on your friends because if they react in a bad way then you might loose them. Have a journal and write down any worries and thoughts and then you can think easily when your mind is clear on how to resolve them' 
Aamira - 'If you feel that it's getting too much ie. the workload, the revision ect. take a break! Watch tv, browse the internet or get something to eat but make sure to limit your break time because the more you rest, the less motivated you'll be to work and the more work load and stress you'll have to deal with.' 
Rachel - 'Listening to calming music, or roll around on the floor. Odd but it works' 

If you deal with stress then let me know your tips on how you manage with it, and if you ever need someone to talk that isn't your friend or family member then feel free to talk to me!

Aumtum Picks; Berry + Nude Lips

Another Autumn Picks for you today, if you missed my previous one then make sure to check it out here.  I've done nails and it makes sense in my mind to now do lips, in the Autumn I love wearing Berry colours and deep reds but as you can guess by the title I also wear nudes? Is that allowed? Well, I do and I am sure so many others do. 

In the order of the swatches above; 

2True Lipgloss// I have no idea what shade this is but this lip gloss is less than £2, and its an plum shade and looks amazing in the winter time. If you want something that isn't too heavy in colour so you can still wear it even if you are scared of bold lip colours.

 - MUA Matte in Wild Berry// This is such a gorgeous colour and an amazing formula. This was my most worn lipstick last year and even though it looks like a berry colour in the tube (very deceiving) it comes out this lovely deep pink colour and is warm toned. I wouldn't say it lasts all day and is awful when you have dry lips it looks so flaky. 

- Bourjois Rouge in Nude-ist// This is by far my favourite from the whole range, and I think will look perfect in this season because when its on the lips I think it looks really deep and lovely. I won't ramble on for too long because i just love them ok. 

Revlon Lip Butter in Peach Parfait// Now on to the nude colours, this one is slightly a pinker nude and is great for you non daring girls. This time of year, its a lovely colour to wear everyday and at night and these are so moisturising too. 

Revlon Matte Balm in Sultry// Now, my favourite of the bunch and one I will wear the most this year. This matte balm is a muted red/brown shade and looks natural on the lips even if it looks scary in the tube, the formula is also amazing and very long lasting I suggest you certainly try it out!
