Banella Milkshakes | Zahra

Now I get cravings, and I really like chocolate (who doesn't?) and I also like bananas so.... why not put them together in a milkshake? Seems simple does it not?

Here's the ridiculously easy recipe:

               - 1 frozen banana
            - about a tablespoon of nutella
            - milk

Method? 
Blend and serve

You could probably be able to go without the banana but it just makes it so much thicker, creamier and gives it a bit of texture but you don't have to.
I managed to get about 2 servings out of this of this which can be shared (or you can keep it to yourself)




Cheers. See you soon :)

What my face wore today | Ayesha



L-R 

Revlon Lip Butter in Sorbet, NARS blush in Madly, MAC 129 brush, Collection clear mascara (used as brow setting gel), Stila waterproof eye pencil (they lie - hay fever made me cry my waterline away but I still love it), MAC brow pencil in Stud, Rimmel wake me up concealer, MaxFactor Masterpiece Max mascara.

I would have applied some other face product e.g. powder/BB cream but my husband kicked me out of the bathroom! (Not literally).

A Guide To Coventry | Zahra



Some might say that Coventry is one of the most boring places in England and quite frankly,   I agree with them. 


Coventry is located (sort of) south of Birmingham and is apparently the 10th biggest city in England (that just shows how small England really is)

I've lived in Coventry for pretty much my whole life so I know what's here and there so if you do ever find yourself stuck here, here's a guide on what you should do.

Shopping
1. Primark-it's pretty big with 3 floors and it always being packed- PLENTY of clothes to be bought.
2. Tescos (Ricoh Arena)- bit weird but it's HUGE and even has shops around and inside.
3. City centre- even though I prefer to go to the Bullring in Birmingham because it's so much bigger, Cov still has some pretty decent shops too (it's even better at Christmas).
4. Car boot sales- if you to the outskirts of Coventry there are quite a few nearly every weekend, so go grab yourself some bargains.
5. Central 6 Shopping Centre and Ikea- both very close to each other a good range of shops if you don't want to go through the stress of going into the city centre.

Activites and food
1. Ice- skating- huge ice rink next to Ikea and it's not that packed.
2. City- centre- Nandos. End of story.
3. Drayton Manor Theme Park is only about 20 mins outside of Coventry (does that count?)
4. There's a small area in the city centre full of places to eat whether it's Subway, Starbucks or something new.
5. War Memorial Park- this park is filled with war memorials, a little play section and enough open fields to raise a the amount of sheep in Wales (just kidding).

Sightseeing
1. Coventry Transport Museum- a museum filled with cars, lorries, planes that have been preserved for years.
2. The Herbert Art museum- old, classic paintings to modern new sculptures.
3. The Tudor road- this road has been around for centuries and was miraculously not bombed during WWI+II.
4. The Cathedral- now this was bombed during World War 2 I believe and hasn't been re-built but is strangely very fascinating- inside and out.
5. The Bus Station- wow, creative. You might think it's a little strange but it's actually really nice (outside) and the transport is right outside plus there are a few statues there too.



So that concludes today, I hope you found it somewhat helpful and I'll be back next week.
Bye.

On Wednesdays We Wear Pink | Zahra

Hi

Sorry I didn't post anything last week as I was on holiday boiling my ass off but anyway, I thought this was a pretty, appropriate look for summer (that is, if it doesn't feel like November where you live *sigh*.)






Products in clockwise order: 
Sleek eyeshadow palette- Storm (the purple and pink at the end of the top row)

Hope you had a good weekend and so far, a good week and hopefully I'll speak on Sunday so hope you enjoyed this filler for last Sunday and bye for now!



Dress- Primark

Everything else I managed to smear on my face:
Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer- Medium cool
Mac Studio Finish Concealer- NW25 (both ^^^^ under my eyes and the Collection concealer on any other parts of my face)
The medium/ dark brown- Sleek Storm (that has sadly hit pan) on my eyebrows
Mac Pearl cream highlighter.

Also, sorry that my nose looks slightly brown on one side- not too sure where that came from!
