All my photo's on my blog are what I've taken on my iPhone 5 with help from apps and filters. I don't like Instagram filters as I find them a bit over the top and you can tell they've had a filter which I don't think shows you what the product or thing that I'm talking about what it actually looks like.. 1. VSCO CAM. This is my ultimate app I always import my pictures and have a look at filters you can get a lot of Kyile Jenner type of photo's if you follow her on instagram, p.s follow kyliejennerappsrevealed it will tell you everything! Did I mention this app is completely free you can buy extra filters but you don't even need them as they do free packs too! 2. SQUAREAGRAM
This is the app I use to get a white edge around my photo's this is helpful for Facebook as they now zoom in on your photo's and I don't really like it. Its simple, basic and free on the app store and you can go straight from squareagram to instagram and you can just add you #hastags and caption. 3. FREEPRINTS This isn't what I use to edit my blog photos but I thought I'd put this here because I don't think many people know about it, In free prints you get 45 prints a month and you just have to pay around £2.00 postage and they get delivered straight to your door. I've used this quite a few times and it's been perfect so putting together a photo album for a birthday or christmas. You can also get matte photos (which I love) or the standard glossy. 4. PIC COLLAGE This is what I use to make my picture collages, its simple you can either pick a layout and have them put them in the boxes like I have at the top of this post or lay the photo's on top of each other like this.. I have loads planned this summer and I haven't even realised it until sitting down to write this post. Summer is such a busy time in retail as we have sales and overall just a hetic time as everybody is off on holiday they do alot of shopping. So lets get started! 1. My 20th birthday, I have no idea what to do for it maybe a massive shopping day or a day at the beach hmm. I really should plan something as it's just round the corner time will fly by and I'll have nothing planned. 2. My boyfriend and my Dad are all going camping or glaming if you want to call it as we have power to our tents, we go upto Billing Aquadrome for the Landrover festival as my Dad loves Landrovers. 3. This is probably the saddest thing but I just want a day down the lakes with some fruity cider like we used to when we was 15 because of course nobody drank under age, just a nice relaxing day bit of music, sunbathing and enjoying ourselves. 4. My holiday so this year I'm off to Santa Ponsa in Spain my boyfriend chose this place as he's been before and has always wanted to go back and I've never been by the pictures I can tell it's a beautiful place. Its also ocated near Magaluf so If we decide to get a bit wild then we can hehe! 5. Overall I want to do something different this summer something I've never done before I say this every year but it could be the year, something like paragliding or scuba diving something that I might not get to do again.
What are you doing this summer or what shall I do this summer? Let me know! Thanks For Reading xox In this post I'm going to be talking about Depop this is a app which most people have on their smartphones or ipads. I've been obsessed with this app for a good six months and the best way to describe it is its basically a instagram set up which you can buy/sell and some people even swap. Its free to list an item on Depop with a set price or people ask for offers you can turn off the 'Instant Payment' so that people have to message you before they buy. With every app this one comes with many pro's and con's and this has a lot of scammers on it but as soon as they are found out you find out since everybody writes about them. They do have depop fee's which cover you as well also paypal is so great at protecting sellers and buyers, the depop fee's are 10% so for example you sell an item for – £40 (including shipping) The Depop fee – £4 PayPal will charge a small fee of about – £1.60 You keep – £34.40 Certain people try and avoid the fee's by asking you to pay by friends and family on paypal I would advise NOT to do this unless you 100% trust that seller I have done this but thats because I'd seen the reviews of these people and thought it would be okay and it was. I'm going to list my pros and cons and also just some tips on how to avoid being scammed. Pro's - Easy simple way to sell clothes, few pictures, locations, price, category and you're done simple as. - Easy to find bargains ( I bought a abercrombie hoodie for £5 inculding postage) - Most people are lovely I have a lovely girl who I also follow her blog (I'll link at the end of the post) - A great time passer I'm always looking and scrolling. - You can swap items so something you don't want somebody might love and they might have something you'd love. Con's - Lots of people buy clothing online from China or eBay and claim they have to oreder it in they charge you triple maybe sometimes more and it takes up to 30 days for it to be delivered does that sound like hong kong to you? - Scammers are around so be careful. - People will ask you to swap and when you look at their profile they have a few crappy dvd's and a loom band bracelet. - People will make stupid offers on your stuff then get annoyed when you say no. - Rude people. Overall its not a bad app sometimes annoying but I've bought some lovely stuff before and spoke to some lovely person the person I mentioned above is who I go to for make up her blog is http://skintagainbeauty.blogspot.co.uk/ and her depop is @kittybaker my depop is @katykader Thanks for reading xo

Thanks for reading xox This isn't my normal beauty blog post, as I like doing random little chats. If you live in the UK like me you'll know that yesterday(15.04.15) was one of the hottest and most beautiful days we've had so far, so I went to Southend Beach with my boyfriend and his friend for the day. We sat here eating mcdonalds and hot donuts, god knows why my boyfriend insisted on buying hot donuts I don't know but they were pretty tasty. Overall it was a perfect day and the time just flew by and we wasn't even doing much we were just people watching and sunbathing, I personally would love to live in Southend I think all the people are lovely and I love the beach. My boyfriend is the one in the middle and he looks like he's posing but we couldn't even see my camera as it was so bright and on the left of him is his mate Tom he just come along for the ride and to get out the house. If you live in the UK and have never been to Southend I highly recommend it they have a theme park on the seafront which you can wonder around for free but obviously pay for the rides, they have arcades everywhere a sealife centre and adventure golf.
