Disney Big Sleeve: Live Action Cinderella

Hey Guys Today I am going to talk about the Live Action Cinderella Disney Big Sleeve edition which I recently purchased after seeing in it a vlog I was watching by Ellie Steadman after she was sent the Beauty and the Beast one. As soon as I saw it was Live Action Cinderella I had to buy it because it is my favourite Disney film. There are different ones you can buy which include Guardians of the Galaxy, Aladdin, Star Wars: The Force Awakens and Finding Dory as well as Cinderella and Beauty and the Beast. It looks like a vinyl record which is in a sleeve with all the film details on the back like how long it is and what is on the discs as well as what is inside. I love how simple the design is by just using the shoe it is so beautiful. When taken out of the sleeve the front stays the same but the back slides off the show a gorgeous picture of Lily James as Cinderella fleeing from the ball, this picture is also the cover on the normal DVD edition. Once you open it up ...

Irregular Choice Cinderella Shoes Review

Hey Guys I thought I would do something a little bit different and write a review about a very special pair of shoes that I bought from Irregular Choice. I wanted to wait until I had worn the shoes properly to be able to give an honest review about them. The shoes I am going to talk about are from Irregular Choice's Limited Edition Cinderella Collection, the ones I bought are the Sparkle On pair which are a high heeled and black sequinned. Sparkle On Firstly I want to talk about my experience of buying the shoes. Before that I want to say that I bought these shoes for a special reason and that was for my graduation day which was happening the following Thursday (2nd). I did queue up for these shoes when they were released at midday on Friday 28th October at the Irregular Choice in Birmingham however, these were not the pair I originally wanted as I actually wanted the Bibbidi Bobbidi pair. There was a decent queue outside the shop when I arrived and the shop had...

October Books

Hey Guys I thought I would share my love of reading a bit more on this blog by doing a monthly wrap up dedicated purely to the books I've read during each month whether I've read 1 book or 4 books, I will be sharing my in depth thoughts trying not to spoil them if I can avoid it but if it is sequels or series then sometimes they can be avoided, so approach with your own caution. I will also keep you updated on how I am progressing towards my Goodreads goal which is set at 40 books. The Grisha Trilogy by Leigh Bardugo The first three books I read this month were the Grisha trilogy by Leigh Bardugo. These are made up of Shadow and Bone (Book 1), Siege and Storm (Book 2) and Ruin and Rising (Book 3). These books are about a girl called Alina Starkov who is just a plain ordinary girl until her best friend is brutally injured in an attack, where she unleashes a dormant power to save his life. This power could be used to save her war ridden country. She is then taken to the ro...

Top 5 Shows I Want To See

Hey Guys I did a post on the best 5 shows I have seen on stage which you can read here  which I wanted to follow that up by doing a Top 5 shows I want to see. 1. The Lion King I feel like all my theatre friends even my sister has seen this show apart from me. Unfortunately I missed out on the school trip for this when I was in Year 7 because I opted for something else. I am hoping this is the one most likely on this list that I am going to go and see soon. I am a huge lover of Disney if you didn't know and I like The Lion King it's not one of my favourites but I would put it on out of choice and I am intrigued to see how it is going to be done on stage and how good the music will sound. However, the tickets for this show are very expensive which puts me off just a little bit and is the main reason why I haven't seen it yet. Lion King is on at the Lyceum Theatre in London. 2. The Jersey Boys This is a musical that has been on my list for a very long time becaus...

September Review

Hey Guys So another month has come and gone and we are now 3/4 of the way through the year which is madness. This means it is time for another monthly review. September has been a very busy month for me but an absolutely amazing one with me getting to go to some amazing events that happened. Firstly this month I attended the book event at The Glee Club for Carrie Hope Fletcher's debut novel On The Other Side which you can read about here to see in depth about the event. I would like to thank Carrie for taking the time to read the blog post I did and for sharing it with everyone. Sticking with the Carrie theme the second exciting thing that happened this month was that me and one of my friends went to see Chitty Chitty Bang Bang at the Hippodrome in Birmingham and I loved it so much was amazing to see a film I loved during my childhood be played out in front of me. I loved Lee Mead and Carrie as Mr Potts and Truly there relationship on stage was lovely. My biggest surpri...

Carrie Hope Fletcher Book Signing

Hey Guys On Monday 12th September I attended Carrie Hope Fletcher's book signing for her fiction book On The Other Side at the Glee Club in Birmingham. This is the second time I have met Carrie and once again she was an absolute pleasure to listen too. I attended this event on my own, and I must stay that I think the Glee Club and the Waterstones team planned and hosted the event so well considering there was 350 people that turned up to this event and each one of those people had bought a ticket and a book. We were seated quite early as doors opened at 6 and I was in a seat by 6:30 with the event starting at 7, however there were people who turned up 10 minutes before the event and had to stand up because of all the seats that were taken which gives you an idea of how many people attended this event. Before the signing of the actual books, there was a 40 minute question and answer session with a representative from Waterstones asking Carrie questions about her book, being...

August Review

Hey Guys It's that time again for a end of month review and favourites, I cannot believe that it is September now as we speak. So August wasn't exciting like July was but this month I got a job, found out that I will be graduating in November apart from that I enjoyed my last month of summer freedom before having to deal with adult life. One thing that I was so excited about this month was the My Burberry Black campaign which featured Lily James and it is stunning and I cannot wait to smell the perfume. FILM: I went to the cinema 4 times this month which is better than previous months. I saw Finding Dory, Romeo and Juliet, Star Trek and Suicide Squad. I enjoyed Finding Dory for what it was I wouldn't see it again but I enjoyed it nonetheless and I did tear up quite a few times and baby Dory is the most adorable squish possible. Yes I am still harping on about this play but I went to see Kenneth Branagh's Romeo and Juliet in cinema which was the showing that was br...
