Five Favourites on a Friday {19th July}



I don't know about you but I am completely and utterly obsessed with the phenomenon that is Pinterest, where you can collect and share 'pins' {pictures} by sharing them to your boards {of which you have different categories}... I started off with maybe five boards and now have 47. These range from quotes, fashion {I have many different categories including MY style}, beauty, blogging, inspiration, sparkle and wishlist boards. Check out my boards on my Pinterest profile - Kooklah.

I find it a great medium to group together ideas and inspiration for projects and something that makes me happy too - there are so many pretty things!

I have decided that each Friday I will share with you my five favourite things... this week I am sharing with you my five favourite 'pins' from the week.

Friday Favourite #1
A great way to add some sparkle to something that is ordinary and used everyday! Dip the end of the key in some glue - or use an old brush to paint it on and then dip into some glitter, seal once dry with clear nail polish and then have fun using your keys!


Friday Favourite #2
This look is so lovely. I fell for the tailored wave of the jacket and the casual top underneath with a cinched in waist, paired perfectly with the shiny shell effect bag for some impact. This outfit is the perfect casual-dressed up outfit - great for a date, party or dinner and drinks.


 
 Friday Favourite #3
This made me giggle but I can totally identify - more so with when the books ended. When Harry Potter was released, I was Harry's age and I felt like I was right beside them throughout all their adventures, like I grew up with them. And I did really. The movies extended this, but the books I re-read pretty often, I fell in love with J. K. Rowling's words and the wonderful world she created...



Friday Favourite #4
I always love a good reminder that things DO get better. No sunshine or rainbows without rain. I think this is such a good way of motivating and encouraging someone to be positive. Sometimes you have to go backwards to proceed forwards. Have some faith that something great is about to happen... because do you know what? It just might!


Friday Favourite #5
I originally found Linda Hallberg on Pinterest and fell in love with her beauty looks. She is a sensational makeup/hair stylist and blogger from Sweden. You can also follow her on instagram {Linda's handle is @lindahallbergs} for daily beauty looks... Her eye makeup is sensational! SO inspiring.

 
Have a happy Friday! Hope you enjoy these pics.

Inspire Me Monday


Today was a both a good and difficult day... a little of the Monday Blues for sure. Today is as good a day as ever to post up what is inspiring and motivating the start to the week...

Hairspiration
I would love to be brave enough and colour my hair this tone one day! One item listed on my Bucket List is to lighten my hair to a kind of blonde, a light caramel/honey such as this would be fantastic!

 
 
Love Thy Body
I find Beyonce so inspiring! She is a strong, talented and inspirational woman. A fantastic role model for women and well as younger girls. Especially as she is curvy, a real size who looks fantastic and shines confidence! One of the most beautiful people... ever...
 
 
Shoespiration
A stunning pair of shoes makes me smile. I love looking at the design and thinking of the craftmanship that went into making them. These ankle boots with bows are just adorable! Love the blush colour, they are called Caroline and are available from Sole Society ...
 
 
Look At Me Eyes...
I absolutely love this beauty look - it has a very classic vibe with a fresh, modern twist. Great idea to contrast the black cat-eye liner with a splash of gold glitter. Make it your own -attempt a different colour! I am excited to try this! Perfect for girls' nights out, dates and events such as weddings
 
 
Thoughtspiration
Life is all about the journey. Every single step you take, person you meet, conversation you have, place you go and action you do plays a part in getting you to the person you will be. Creates your story, when we are young we all just want to grow up. But why? We should not rush to the end, enjoy the journey, create a memorable story. Make your life, your story, your very own legacy. The highs, the lows, the greatest and most exciting moments of your life, the challenges and struggles all play a significant part in how you will be remembered. So open the book, grab the pen and start LIVING.
 
 
Hope something on this list inspires you... maybe you have your own. What is inspiring your start to the week? Happy end to the Monday. Sarah/Kooklah Xo
