Halloween - Pleasurewood Chills

 The first themed post for the British Blogger Selection is 'Halloween'. This year on Halloween I was lucky enough to be invited to Pleasurewood Hills on their Chills Celebration day. The day showcased 3 main horror mazes, none of which I actually went on because I'm a scaredy cat. Although, I did go on the kiddy ride in which many hilarious videos were taken displaying my fear. You can see below what I was wearing during the day...

My jumper and denim shirt are both from H&M. The jumper is £14.99, and the shirt was in the sale for £7 but I believe it would be around £10 on retail. The jumper is actually in a size medium yet it is still short in the arms, I presume that it is meant to be this style as the fit of the jumper is perfect otherwise. I am wearing Sinful Colours Black on Black on my nails layered with an H&M matte top coat (how Halloween fitting of me). I just noticed that you can see the Grim Reaper wandering around in the back of my photo, 10 points if you can spot him (it's like where's wally!!).

Oh how much I love sky lifts. This is what I did on Halloween, what did you do? Don't forget to sign up to the British Blogger Selection, see details in my previous post.

Val D'Europe

 Agh! I loved coming here so much! Sorry, getting too excited already....calm hannah.....ok. Hi! So while I was at Paris for the week, we decided to take a trip down to Val D'Europe. It is a maaaassive shopping centre that is more like a town than a set of shops (hence the name 'Village of Europe'). My favourite part was a street filled with designer shops, I was in heaven! I actually went in a Versace shop and touched the clothes, oh my.

 The whole street looked stunning and something straight out of the High End in LA or Central London. I literally dragged my parents into every shop! So upsetting that I couldn't buy anything:( Sad times.

The inside part of Val D'Europe was more promising as there were ordinary shops in there. As the centre was in France, there were other shops in there that aren't in the UK so I loved it! I went a bit crazy in KIKO with the nail polish, and bought a gorgeous bag from Zara (we have a Zara in Norwich but I never buy anything in there!) which I'll upload an outfit with later. There was another shop called 'Berksha' which I loved! It was kind of like Topshop, Primark and H&M all blended together, it was beyond perfect! They also had a Sephora! I've never been in a Sephora before as we don't have them in the UK, but it felt so much more posh than Boots or Superdrug, it was more like a House of Fraser type place. So tempted by the OPI's though!

Maison Dior

 Hello everyone! So while I was in France for 2 weeks, I was lucky enough to catch a glimpse of Christian Dior's childhood house. While I was staying in Granville, Maison Dior opened its doors during the annual festival to the public. For only 4 euros (equivalent of about £3.50), I had a wander around the inside of this beautiful house. Each room had been transformed into a museum of mannequins each wearing clothes from the Dior collections over the years. Unfortunately I wasn't allowed to take photos inside the house but I took plenty around the house and its gardens.

Here's little old me standing in the rose garden infront of the pillar dedicated to Christian Dior (this isn't his grave by the way! I thought so too! haha). He designed this part of the garden himself while he was staying in the house during the World War. The blouse I'm wearing is from primark (OOTD here), topshop skirt and primark bag. The mysterious white bag is what I purchased from the museum (holiday haul coming soon).

The entrance to the house was beautiful! The massive board outside featuring Natalie Portman made me so excited! I bought a poster from the gift shop with the same design on as this board, it is proudly hanging beside my bed. The photo below is the view from behind the house, which is also so so so stunning!! As soon as you exit the museum you are encapsulated by the scenery overlooking the sea at Granville. The sea was so blue/green and so much better than the english sea! Even though there was a graveyard underneath the garden, I think it added a Grecian feel to the scenery and it's not spooky at all! I would love to live here so much! It's one of the best places I've ever visited. Lucky Dior!

Disneyland Paris!

Here's me, looking all spotty, standing infront of the Disney castle (sorry about camera quality...these photos are from my iphone, my normal camera is a Fujifilm s9280). I haven't been to Disneyland since I was 8 so I was so go damn excited to go back.

Excuse the oily face (again), but Stitch is my favourite Disney character and there was a massive one in the shop (€60 -cry-). Sorry in advance for the amount of pictures in this post...

We stayed at night to watch the Disney Dreams fireworks. Everyone thought they started at 10:00, although they didn't start till 11:00. So we stood, among thousands in the pouring rain, waiting for the show to start but we gave up and walked away. The next night we returned and watched the full show...it was amazing! I felt like such a 6 year old, it couldn't be faulted (bit disappointed it didn't have a little mermaid bit:/).

I'll update this post next week with more pictures from my camera or even upload a completely new post:)
