The Holiday Reading List

One of the best thing for me about going away is being able to get through a good few books. At home sometimes life can get in the way and reading can take a backseat, something which I aim to change as I find it to be one of the most relaxing things to do out there. I love getting lost in another world.

First: Magazines. One of the main reasons why I love the start of a new month is the release of all the new magazines. I get ELLE and Vogue to catch up on all the latest trends, read the articles and let's be honest I spend most of the time studying the makeup and hair looks on the models on the advertising pages. Alot of my inspiration comes from those pages. I've been buying Company for a while now, I love that they include alot of blogger and social media aspects into their articles. It's always very up to date and there are always interesting and relatable features 

Second: Books. Yes I do do some proper reading as well. I've got the Bridget Jones Omnibus (both books in one, er yes!) because no holiday is complete without a trashy, girly book. Plus my mum virtually forced these books on me when she found out I hadn't read them. Then I've also got the first two books in the Divergent series, because I'm interested to see what the fuss is about and they look like an easy read. Finally I've got what some may call a 'proper' read, The Girl At The Lion D'Or. I found this on one of the book cases at home and thought I would give it a try.

I won't lie, alot of my suitcase is taken up by reading materials. But seeing as I am going to be spending the majority of the week lying in the sun reading it kind of makes sense. Now just to find the extra space for makeup, skincare and clothes. Pray for me.
