My New Youtube Love | Carrie Hope Fletcher

               Hiya!
For quite a while I've been stuck in a bit of a youtube rut, I'm subscribed to and love watching so many different channels whether they have millions of subscribers or a couple thousand. However when it came to British youtubers I was only really subscribed to the hugely popular channels such as Zoella, Tanya Burr, Marcus Butler etc.. I still love these channels but recently I've been branching out slightly. After Louise (aka a SprinkleofGlitter) showed Jack Howard in many a video I soon found myself watching all his old videos and really truly loving them. Jack is huge on youtube but his content was a little different to what I normally watched so I'd never found myself watching him before. He mentioned Carrie in a recent video and I wondered why I'd never checked her out since I'd known who she was for quite a while so I ventured on over to ItsWayPastMyBedtime, and oh my goodness... I had seriously been missing out! 
       
Carrie just makes me smile. She's truly a beautiful person inside and out. She could talk about what she ate for tea last night and make it sound poetic. I'm yet to watch all her videos (which I will get around to!) but so far my favourite video has been 'To My Sixteen Year Old Self'. It's just so lovely to watch and I may have teared up slightly.... Carrie makes it seem like she's only talking to you through the camera, like she's giving big sisterly advice which is hard not to adore. 
So far this is what I have learnt about her, 
     -she's extremely talented at singing and songwriting to name a few 
     - a Disney fan esp of Tangled (something we share)
     - a book enthusiast  
     - also a cake fanatic and tea drinker
And yes she is Tom from McFly's sister..

Ehm is there somewhere I can apply to be Carrie's best friend oooor..? 

Pleaseeeeee check out her channel if like me you hadn't before!! And if you're having a bit of a crappy day her videos will definitely work as a pick me up. 
(You should also check out Jack Howard too, he's hilarious and makes fab content) 

What's your favorite video of Carrie's you think I should check out?
Hope you guys enjoyed!
Love, Julie xx

Youtube Style Crush | MarissaLace

               Hiya!
These Youtube style crush posts have been something I've been doing for a while since I'm quite the avid youtube watcher.
Here are so of my previous posts:
 
Today I wanted to introduce you guys to MarissaLace. On all my other Youtube Style Crush posts I've focused mainly on their style and why I love it whereas I just want to focus on Marissa as a person.
Marissa is 21 and from California. She was primarily a 'beauty guru' but recently made the change to more of a lifestyle type channel and now often posts fitness and health related vids. Not only is she trained in all things hair and beauty (after recently graduating beauty school) so she actually knows what she's talking about she's a sassy queen with lots of personality.
Marissa's videos are full of her down to earth, incredible personality which makes them hilarious to watch no matter what shes talking about. Although her vlogs show this on a whole new level (TheDailyMarissalace) Marissa's vlog channel is by far my favourite along with her advice videos.
She's an incredibly refreshing face to see especially within the beauty community on youtube, she comes across 100% true and genuinely and that she's just being herself. Marissa's also really into thinking positive and going after what you want. She posts a lot of inspiration quotes on instagram and twitter and it's always good to be surrounded by people like that even if it is on social media. (btw she followed me on twitter not too long ago and it made my week!)
Marissa just seems like a seriously sweet, lovely person who makes great videos which are pleasure to watch. If you haven't already, check out some of her vids and I promise you won't be disappointed, she deserves a hell of a lot more subscribers than she has!
 
Ps. Eat. Breath. Bronze.
Hope you guys enjoyed!
Love, Julie xx

Youtuber Style Crush | Alexa Losey

               Hiya!
Honestly I really didn’t know what to write about today.. Exams have apparently turned my mind to mush. So I thought I’d delve into a little list of Youtubers I have floating around and choose someone who I want to share with you guys and I found the amazing Alexa Losey.
Alexa is a Youtuber from California who has incredible style. She honestly has found the perfect balance between the Cali style and high end while throwing some quirky pieces into the mix too. Like her leather jacket with leopard print sleeves, amazing.
 

 Not only does she have such an amazing wardrobe she’s just generally a beautiful person, has anyone else noticed how she looks like Angelina Jolie’s long lost sister? Alexa’s Youtube videos are some of my favourite and if you haven’t I seriously suggest you check her out HERE.

Which Youtubers do you like? Or who's style have you been crushing on lately, Youtuber or not?
Hope you guys enjoyed!
Love, Julie xx

LoveLaurenElizabeth || 12 Days of Christmas

               Hiya!
A little while ago I wrote a post on the Youtuber SarahBelle93x HERE who’s style I really loved and that’s what I decided to do again today only this time it’s about Lauren Elizabeth’s style.
Lauren is a 20 year old Youtuber (LoveLaurenElizabeth) from Chicago now living in LA. She has a pretty damn successful channel and also works with other channels including Awesomenesstv. Laurens style is such a perfect mix of classic, grungy and slightly boho. Why I find her so relatable is because she doesn’t buy lots of cheap items from places like Forever21 and only wear them once, she has gradually built a wardrobe including lots of pieces that can inter change with each other and make so many different looks and outfits.
One of Lauren's most recent looks and one of my favourites.

 As you can tell from the photos she doesn’t wear colour all too often but neither do I and she shows so many different ways to wear all the same colour yet incorporate textures and patterns to make the overall look appealing. If you have never checked out Lauren’s channel here are a few links to some of her best fashion videos in my opinion.
 
 
Ps. Also check out Lauren's other videos on depression and bullying as she's also very wise fo her age and has some great advice. She's not only a fashion inspiration to me, shes just an inspirational person in general who I look up to.
Pps. Check out her brother Hudson's channel too, TukieLuth! He makes super funny videos that I promise, won't fail to make you laugh.
 
What yotuber's style do you loo up to?
Hope you guys enjoyed!
Love, Julie xx

Rebecca Black

               Hiya!
Rebecca Black, yeah, so this is a bit random but as you know I did a post on a youtuber Sarah Belle a little while ago HERE and have some more coming up so maybe not so random. Rebecca Black is a pretty well known name after shooting into the public eye over 2 years ago thanks to her viral song ‘Friday’..
Friday certainly wasn’t her finest hour but I personally feel she got way too harshly criticised for being a 14 year old girl wanting to do something she loved, I’m sure many of us did stupid things when we were 14 only we were lucky enough not to have it recorded and posted online for all to see. Since then Rebecca has actually been making Youtube videos HERE and I honestly really like them. She does things from covers of songs to random popular videos going about youtube like tag videos. She seems like a really down to earth normal girl who makes funny videos and is just enjoying all the opportunities she has been given since Friday was released.
If you are unaware Rebecca has just released a sequel to Friday, featuring Dave Days, called ‘Saturday’ HERE. I think it’s a really catchy, good to just dance to song. Also look out for all the references to Friday Rebecca makes throughout the song! Many other youtubers appear in the video including Connor Franta, Ricky Dillon, Lauren Elizabeth and Jennxpenn to name a few. (you should check these guys out too!) I really hope people judge the actually song and not the girl singing it and because it is linked to Friday. I seriously urge you to check out the song and Rebecca’s other videos because she’s such a sweet girl.
 
 
Let me know what you think of Rebecca Black?
Have you heard her new song yet?
Hope you guys enjoyed!
Love, Julie xx

Youtube Style Crush | SarahBelle93x

               Hiya!
So from the title some people may think this is a little bit of a weird post.. But I watch a lot of different youtubers especially the beauty and fashion ones as it’s a great way of getting fashion inspiration and finding out about great new products as well as getting real peoples opinion on them.
One girl whose style I have been in love with for a long time is SarahBelle93x. If you have never watched any of her videos I urge you too go right now and watch some because you will fall in love with her, just like me..
Her fashion sense is very put together and her wardrobe seems to consist of a lot of simple pieces which makes them easy to pair together. The way Sarah tends to pull an outfit together and make them more playful and fun is by accessories. By adding a scarf or large chunky necklace it adds more colour and seems like the way Sarah incorporates the latest trends into her outfit. And who can forget her ‘armcandy’, layering different fun bracelets with a staple watch.
 I think the reason Sarh's clothes look so great is because she has learnt what suits her body shape and even though her clothing items are simple the cut of them really flatters her body!
 One other way Sarah really sets off an outfit is by wearing classic prints like stripes and cheetah, and as they are classic they won’t ever really go out of fashion so you definitely get your moneys worth out of the item you buy.
And if you want to channel a little bit of Sarahbelle93x into your wardrobe all you need to do is wear something Lilly Pulitzer, watch her videos and you’ll understand.
 
Hopefully this post will inspire some people to check out some people on youtube and maybe find someone whose style you really love? Not all fashion inspiration has to come from magazines and runways..
Hope you guys enjoyed this post, and don't forget to check out and subscribe to SarahBelle93x!
Love, Julie xx
