Pretty Little LiArs

Hey Cuties! As you may or may not know that one of my favourite TV shows is Pretty Little Liars (PLL)! I just watched last weeks special, We Love You To DeAth and it gave me an idea to write a PLL themed blog post. For those of you that either have no idea what Pretty Little Liars is or have never watched it before here's a little synopsis:

Pretty Little Liars is a TV series based on the book series written by Sara Shepard. It's about 4 girls that begin to received threats from an anonymous person called "A", after one of their best friends went missing. Now I don't want to give too much away but I highly recommend watching PLL as it is filled with tension, suspense and is just overall AMAZING! Every episode leaves me curious of what is going to happen next. The one question which is still left unanswered for everyone is 'who is the big "A"?' The producer, Marlene King, said that the Big A will be revealed before the final season (season 7). Thank God!



SPOILER ALERT!!

A mini PLL tag:

At the moment we are currently half way through season 5 so my answers for these questions might change.

Who do I think "A" is?
Throughout the series I thought "A" was a bunch of different people. In season 1 I did guess that Mona was "A" which turned out to be true but after season 2 guessing who "A" was became more challenging for me because there were so many "A" potentials. I never guessed that Toby would have joined the "A" Team, when I found out he was "A" I just hoped he had a really good reason which he did. Now I think that the "Big A" is one of the Liars which would definitely put a twist on things. Since the liars are one of the least expected people to be "A" I decided to use reverse phycology aha! However, the producers might decide to make "A" someone who we all suspected. Who knows?! I can't wait to find out who "A" is once and for all.

Who is your favourite character?
In the beginning I liked Hanna and Aria but as I began to watch more and more episodes I began to love Mona's character. "She is like 7 characters in 1" Lucy Hale (Aria) said in the Season 5 special. That statement is so true! Mona goes from being "A" to being Crazy Mona to being Bad-ass Mona... Janel Parrish is a great actress and I hope they have a ghost Mona because the show won't be the same now that Mona is dead.

Who do you ship?
I ship Hanna and Caleb (Haleb) and Aria and Ezra. I think Aria and Ezra have had the most relationship struggles throughout the series but they still managed to always go back to each other.

Favourite Villain?
Definitely MONA!!

What has been your favourite episode so far?
I love SO many of the episodes and it is hard to pick just one but I'm going to say the most recent one (season 5 episode 12) because I never would have thought that Mona would had been killed! That episode shocked me the most I think.

What do I think of Alison?
Alison is one of those characters that I think goes by the saying "every man for themselves." You never really know what her motives are, she just can't be trusted. She is an intimidating and scary character, you just don't know what she is capable of doing.

Which Liar do you think has been hurt the most by A?
I think they have all had their bad "A" moments but I think that Spencer and Emily have been hurt the most by "A". Spencer is currently being framed for murder!

Which one of the girl style's do you like the most?
I like them all on different occasions but I tend to like Aria's the most.

Kisses -A

I hope you liked this post and if you don't already watch Pretty Little Liars I recommend watching it.

DIY Olaf Halloween outfit | #COLLABOWEEN



Hey Cuties! This post is apart of AGingerBlondie's Halloween collaboration series called #COLLABOWEEN. So we decided that we would do a Halloween outfit idea blog post for you guys. AGingerBlondie is doing a dress up like Sandy from Greece and I am doing a dress up like Olaf from Frozen! Make sure you check out AGingerBlondie's blog, I love it: www.agingerblondie.blogspot.co.uk


For this costume you will need:
  • A pair of white shorts - H&M
  • A pair of white leggings/tights - Newlook
  • A white long sleeve top - Newlook
  • A white beanie 
  • A pair of white shoes/trainers - ASDA
  • Black card - Paperchase
  • Orange card - Paperchase
  • Glue (I recommend PVA glue) - Paperchase
  • A pair of scissors
  • String
  • Double sided tape - Paperchase
  • Brown pipe cleaner 
If you already have these items then you won't have to spend a penny! However, don't panic if you don't have all of these items because I have linked most of the items to websites where I found them for a reasonable price.

Step 1:
So let's start of with the buttons for Olaf. So first cut out 3 medium size circles from your black card. Then stick them on the middle of the white long sleeve top (make sure the buttons have a bit of a gap in between them and that they are stuck in a vertical line). 

Step 2:
Now let's make the nose. So Olaf has a carrot for a nose but obviously it may be uncomfortable if we was to wear an actual carrot for a nose so we have to make one from card instead. First get an A4 piece of orange card and roll it up into a cone then stick the sides together. Then hole punch 2 ends at the opposite end of the nose. Then put the string through and tie a knot (make sure the string length is adjusted to fit your head). 

Step 3:
Now for Olaf's hair. Get about 4 prices of brown pipe cleaners and poke them through a white beanie. Then bend them to make them look more like twigs. 

Step 4: 
Finally, wear a pair of white shorts and leggings/ tights with a pair of white shoes/trainers.

I hope that you liked this post. Comment down below letting me know what you thought of it. Also comment down below telling me what you will be dressing up as this year for Halloween.

Hey Cuties, so this is my first blog post of my 'Can I Just Say' series!

So can I just say how much I am loving One Directions' latest song Steal My Girl. The first time I listened to it I was like WOAH, I fell in love with the song from the first time I listened to it!! I couldn't stop listening to it... I still can't haha! I am actually listening to it whilst writing this blog post. I can't wait to watch the music video, I'm sure it will be just as great as the song.

New Series'

Hey guys, this blog post is a bit different today, it is just about the different series' on my blog that I will be starting.

Can I just Say - I tend to say "can I just say" A LOT whilst talking and sometimes even blogging for some reason. This gave me the idea to start a Can I Just Say series! You must be think "what is a Can I just Say Series?" If you are thinking that let me just explain what it is. Basically every random thought that I get and I create it into a blog post I will title it "Can I Just say..." Now these blog post may be totally RANDOM or even CRAZY and sometimes even SERIOUS. I want to try and make my blog different hence why I'm creating some new blogging series'.

Motivational Monday's - This is basically how it sounds. I will post some quotes that I like or I find motivational on a Monday. "Why Monday's," you might ask, well simply because its the day after the weekend and sometimes we need to be motivated to get through the week.

Dear Diary - I will give you an update on things I have been doing or going to be doing, that's interesting or exciting.

I hope that you guys like these new series', I would appreciate it if you did let me know what you thought of then (if you liked them or not). You can do this by leaving comments, emailing me or clicking either the 'like' or 'dislike' buttons.

Little treats


Hey guys, I hope that you all enjoyed your weekend. My Sunday consisted of me relaxing and watching movies and TV shows. Since I tend to do all my homework and revision during the week my weekends are usually free so I can relax. On Sunday I felt like buying myself a couple of little treats for the evening. So I bought myself one of my favourite chocolates, FERRERO ROCHER!! It had been absolutely AGES since I had last eaten them. (It had been about 3 years or so which is a long time in my opinion!) I even forgot that they had a peanut in the centre. Am I the only one that doesn't eat that peanut haha? Can I just say how DELICIOUS the chocolate centre was!! I forgot what I had been missing out on for the past 3 years.

I had to have one of my favourite drinks to go with them so I bought a bottle of the elderflower Bottle Green drinks. I drank the entire bottle whilst X Factor haha! Can I just say that X Factor was amazing on the weekend! Who do you guys want to win this year?

Two months blogging & a few blogging tips

I can't believe that it has been two months that I have been blogging already!! It seems like it was just yesterday that I started blogging. I know that you might be thinking "it's only been two months, not two years. What is she getting excited about?!" But two months is a big deal to me because I have learnt so much over these past couple of months. I have decided to share a few things that I have learnt so far.

Comparing my blog to other blogs: It is very easy to compare yourself to other bloggers which is something nobody should do. I know that I use to do this. I use to compare how many followers I had, compared to the "bigger" blogs that had thousands and I didn't have any. What I realised was that, it does not matter how many followers you have. Whether you have ten or ten thousand, it does not make you more or less superior. I am happy if at least one person in the world reads my blog, that alone blows my mind.

Blogging frequently: I try to blog frequently. I try and make sure that I post at least 2-3 times a week. Since I am in high school and I do get a lot of homework, I may not be able to post as much as much as I would like to but I will try and post as often as I can.

Staying organised: Blogging is actually hard work. You have to think of blog post ideas, then plan them and write them. It can be a long process at times. I tend to spend between 10 minutes to an hour writing a blog post (that excludes planning it). I think that it is easier to write multiple blog posts on the weekend and then schedule them. This makes things easier if you tend to be busy during the week. I might start doing this more often.

Images: I realised that a lot of blogs use proper cameras to take pictures. You don't have to buy a fancy camera to produce decent images. I don't have a fancy camera. I simply use my phone to take pictures and they turn out quite decent in my opinion.

Can I just say that I am really enjoying blogging and I cannot wait to see what my blog will be like in two years time.

If you guys have any blog posts requests or ideas do not hesitate to tell me. You can leave comments or email me ( onlineimperfectionscontact@gmail.com ). If you want to talk to me you can tweet me ( @OImperfections ) on Twitter or email me.

I hope that you have enjoyed this blog post :)

Harry Potter Weekend

Hey guys, I have been in a Harry Potter mood all weekend! I am currently in the middle of a Harry Potter movie marathon (I'm now watching the Order of the Phoenix). I absolutely love Harry Potter. Yesterday I took the 'which Hogwarts house do you belong in' quiz and found out that I am in...

Yeah I am in Gryffindor! The same house that Harry, Hermione and Ron were in! Take the Harry Potter Quiz and find out what house you're in.

I also took the Harry Potter trivia quiz. Believe it or not but I actual got them all correct (I did guess a few though)!! I got 25/25, I am a bit of a Harry Potter nerd haha.


 
 
Take the Harry Potter trivia Quiz  and see what you score, then comment down below telling me your score.

Mini Haul | Krispy Kreme | Stooshe

Hey guys, yesterday I went shopping and bought a few things.

First of all I bought 2 dozen KRISPY KREME DOUGHNUTS!! I absolutely LOVE the Krispy Kreme doughnuts!! As a one off we decided to get one original glaze dozen and one assorted dozen. Don't worry they weren't just for me. As much as I love them I couldn't eat 24 doughnuts in one night. They're far too sweet for one person to eat. Did you know that one Original Glaze doughnut has 217 calories?! The Glazed Raspberry (my favourite one) has 307 calories!! That's a lot for only one doughnut but I still eat them haha!


(Sorry the image is upside down)
 
 
I got to see Stooshe perform as well. They were really good. 
 
 
 
My favourite clothing item I bought was a black Skort. I wanted one for ages and now I finally have one, I cannot wait to wear it. I'm thinking of wearing it with a cute black and white top but to be honest I think any coloured top would look great with it. I also bought a new jumper, nothing fancy.
 
 
I went into Office and whilst I was looking for Dr Martens I saw this in the corner of my eye. It was at that moment I fell in love with...




 
... This pair of All Star Converse!! They are called Ctas Tri Zip Navy Sparkle Wash. I love the zip at the back, I think that is what attracted me to them as well as the colour. Comment down below telling me what you think of them.
 
I hope that you enjoyed this post, let me know if you would like me to do more haul posts.

Tips on staying organsied for school

We are now about a month into the academic year so I decided that I would give you some tips on how to stay organised for school.

  1. Have a planner - I'm sure that we all get tons of homework every week (well at least I do) and we might forget what our homework is and when it is due in. So get a planner/ diary if your school doesn't provide one so you can write down your homework assignments.
  2. Create a timetable - Create a timetable so you can organise your week. You can write down what days you do after school activities or what days you are going to revise certain subjects.
  3. Highlighters - Highlight key parts of information, this way when you are revising the important parts standout.
  4. Post it notes - Wirte down key parts of information on post it notes. Having multi coloured ones are better because you can stay colour coordinated. 
  5. Have a notebook - have a notebook so you can write down notes. 
  6. Study cards - I love using study cards to help me revise. It is so much easier than just reading out a text book all of the time. So just write down the things you need to know for your exam in note form and use them when revising. 
  7. Alarms/ reminders - set phone reminders for when you have important dates to remember, like exams or what time your are going to revise.
  8. Re-read school work - make sure that you read over your school work so you don't forget what you learnt that lesson.
  9. Get rid of distractions - Get rid of distractions (your phone, laptop, ect) whilst revising or doing school work!!
  10. REVISE!! - Don't forget to revise! If you don't revise you might forget everything you have learnt at school and fail your exams so REVISE!!
I hope that you found these tips useful. If you have any other tips that you might like to share just comment down below.
