December Favourites 2019 :)

1. Dickinson- My friend Hannah suggested this show to me and I absolutely loved it!! She ended up coming to my house to watch it because its on Apple TV which she didn’t have. It has Hailee Steinfeld in it who I absolutely love and the show tells the story of Emily Dickinson.

2. His Dark Materials- I am a big fan of the Dark Materials book series and am also a big fan of Lin Manuel Miranda so this series is right up my street!! I absolutely loved this series and I am really hoping they do a second series!!

3. Merry Happy Whatever- Bridget Mendler and Ashley Tisdale in a tv show together is always going to be a favourite of mine 😊 I don’t think that I know another Christmas based tv show but I love the idea!!

November Favourites 2019 :)

1. Peter Hollens- I discovered Peter Hollens around Halloween this year as his Villain medley kept getting recommended to me so I finally listened to it and I absolutely loved it and couldn’t get it out of my head!!! He does covers and medleys of different Disney songs and also songs from different Broadway shows which is absolutely amazing 🙂
2. The Circle- The Circle was all over social media in October so I finally got around to watching it a little while after it actually ended and I absolutely loved it! I never watched Season 1 but I’m kind of tempted to catch up on it since I loved Season 2 so much 🙂 My favourites were Tim and Woody 🙂
3. The Politician- As a big fan of Ben Platt and also Ryan Murphy who created Glee this show was right up my street and absolutely hilarious! The show follows Payton Hobart on his quest to win his high school presidential election and all of the crazy situations he gets himself into along the way.
4. Wishing for the normal- Soho Cinders: I am a big fan of Six and actually had the pleasure of seeing Millie O’Connell in Six a while ago and she was absolutely amazing so I was so interested to see what she ended up doing after finishing in Six and the show looks absolutely amazing! I absolutely love this song and have had it in my head since hearing it for the first time 🙂
5. Stack It Up- Liam Payne: Written by Ed Sheeran which I am a big fan of this song has been in my head for the past month and a bit because it is so catchy! The song is going to feature on Liams upcoming debut album which I am very excited about! I wouldn’t have admitted it at the time but I was a One Direction fan so its always nice seeing their amazing solo work 🙂
6. Queer Eye- My friends Poon and Chiara recommended this show to me when I went out to dinner with them a while ago so I finally decided to watch it this month and I am absolutely loving it!! I am a big fan of make-over shows and also self help books so this is an amazing combination of the two. I think my favourite of the Fab 5 would have to be Tan or Jonathan but they all have their amazing moments 🙂

October Favourites :)

1. Jesy Nelson: Odd One Out- I am a big fan of Little Mix as you guys will already probably know and have followed them since they were on the X-Factor back in 2011. This documentary made me cry so many times and I think it is a must see for everyone! It shows that you never know what someone is going through behind the scenes and much words can affect people
2. Bea Miller- On the 23rd of September I went to see Bea Miller live at O2 Islington and she was amazing! I have been listening to her music non-stop ever since 🙂 I think my favourite songs from her are S.L.U.T. or Feel Something.
3. Downtown Abbey- I used to watch Downtown Abbey with my mum all of the time and we were really sad when it ended so when I found out they were doing a film I was so excited! Its the ultimate cosy film which is perfect for October 🙂
4. MuchelleB- I have been on such a GYST the last few months so have been loving watching MuchelleBs videos and her life admin day vlogs as they always inspire me to sort my life out which is why I have been loving her vlogs 🙂 I always get into a GYST mood in September/October as it starts becoming cold and so you spend a lot of time indoors and its starting the run up to the new year 🙂
5. 10,000 hours by Dan and Shay and Justin Bieber- I am a big fan of Dan and Shay and went to see them live in January which was amazing 🙂 They are amazing and I never would have put them together with Justin Bieber for a collab but it actually works 🙂 The song is so cute and I love that they all have their wives with them in the video 🙂

September Favourites

1. Lover- Taylor Swift: I am a big fan of Taylor Swift and have been since her first album so when I heard that she was releasing a new album I was so excited! I listened to the whole album while on the train up to Ipswich which was so much fun 🙂 My favourite songs were: You need to calm down, London Boy, I Forgot That You Existed and The Man. I’m so excited for the new era 🙂
2. No Good Nick- Adverts for this show have been everywhere on Netflix over the past few months so I finally decided to sit down and watch it and I absolutely loved it! The premise is so interesting and its really easy watching which I love as I usually watch Netflix in the background 🙂
3. The hidden power of F*cking up by The Try Guys- I borrowed this book from my friend Ria while I was in Dorset and read it while at West Bay beach and I absolutely loved it 🙂 I am a big fan of The Try Guys and also love self-help books so this was right up my street 🙂 Let me know in the comments what you have been loving in September 🙂

August Favourites 2019 :)

1. Derry Girls- This show reminds me of a female Inbetweeners based in Ireland and I absolutely love it 🙂 Its great to have on in the background whilst your busy doing other things and I love seeing a bit of the history of the civil conflict in Ireland 🙂
2. Aladdin Live Action 2019- I watched Aladdin recently and I absolutely loved it! I’m a big fan of the original film and also of Naomi Scott as she is such an amazing actress and singer 🙂 I didn’t think they would be able to top the original film however I loved the new song Speechless as it has such an important message and the melody is beautiful! I loved the girl power element that Naomi Scotts Jasmine brings to the film as well.
3. Descendents 3- I have absolutely loved watching the Descendants franchise and have been following it since the start with Descendants 1 as I am a big Disney fan and am also a big fan of Dove Cameron and Sofia Carson 🙂 I always love the music and this new addition to the franchise definitely did not disappoint on that front! I’m definitely sad that the franchise is ending but I think they did a great job and I think it was a good time to do it 🙂
4. Mean Girls afternoon tea at Duo London- My brother got me a wowcher for a Mean Girls Afternoon Tea for my 22nd Birthday and I went on it with my mum at the start of August 🙂 It was so so so much fun and I would highly recommend 🙂 The food was delicious, the staff were amazing, there was a DJ playing 90s/2000s hits and they also did a Mean Girls quiz and got volunteers to dance along to Jingle Bell Rock!!

July Favourites :)

This month features TV quite heavily as I had an 8 hour plane journey on my way back from Mexico at the start of the month so managed to watch a few movies on the plane and also I have been to the cinema quite a few times this month which was really fun 🙂

1. The Hate You Give- I watched this movie on the plane on the way back from Mexico and at one point I was literally crying in my seat. This film is so powerful and is based on a book of the same name which I will definitely be reading 🙂
2. Crazy Rich Asians- This was another film that I watched  on my way back from Mexico and I definitely understand the hype around it. I laughed, I cried and already want to watch it again!
3. Spiderman Far From Home- I went to see this film in the cinema with two of my friends and I absolutely loved it! I am a big Marvel fan as most of you will probably already know and Spiderman is one of my favourite characters from the MCU. I loved the twists and turns of this movie and am a big fan of Tom Holland and Zendaya.
4. Stranger things Season 3- Despite the fact that I’m not a big fan of horror and suspense I absolutely love stranger things so decided to spend one weekend in July and binge-watch the new season of Stranger things 🙂 I love the character development that you see within every season of Stranger things for example Steve Harrington has become one of my favourite characters but I hated him in Season 1. This is definitely a show that I have to watch during the day though!
5. Yesterday- This was another film that I went to see in the cinema in July and I absolutely loved it. The idea behind the film is that one day Jack Malik wakes up and everyone has forgotten about the Beatles which is a very funny concept and also Ed Sheeran who is one of my favourite singer/songwriters features quite heavily in the film as well.

June Favourites 2019 <3

1. A Very Potter Musical- I can’t believe that it has taken me this long to watch this musical on Youtube! As a big fan of Harry Potter I have heard so much about this show but just never got round to actually watching it but now that I have I actually love it! It was absolutely amazing and hilarious 🙂
2. Every Colour of You- I read this at the end of  May while I was in Jersey for my dads birthday and really really enjoyed it- I have been watching the Mandeville sisters for a while now so seeing Amelia achieving her dream of becoming a published author was really cool and I think it was a great first novel 🙂
3. Bounce Back-Little Mix: As mentioned in my My favourite Little Mix songs post I am a big Little Mix fan so always love when they release new music 🙂 I’m really hoping this new single will be the start of the LM6 era 🙂
4.  If thats what it takes- But I’m A Cheerleader: I watched a performance of this song by Carrie Hope Fletcher at West End Live online and I fell in love with the song and its been playing on repeat since 🙂 I don’t know too much about the musical itself but I’m definitely interested in finding out more 🙂

May favourites 2019 :)

1. That 70s Show- I have been watching this show for a few months now as a way to pass the time as it is very easy watching and is great for watching in the background. I love that this show has lots of well known actors such as Ashton Kutcher, Mila Kunis, Laura Prepon and Wilmer Valderrama at the start of their career and its so funny seeing all of the vintage technology and clothing in the show as well however some of the humour is definitely outdated and some of the jokes are definitely not appropriate for a 2019 audience! 
2. Honest Burger- I had never been to honest burger until this month!! I know!! I went with my two friends Chiara and Poon and it was absolutely lovely 🙂 We went to the one in Holborn so I had a Holborn burger which is a beef burger with Parma Ham and Mozzarella 🙂 I love that each restaurant has its own burger which means that no visit to Honest Burger will be the same 🙂
3. I Don’t Care with Ed Sheeran and Justin Bieber- I am a big fan of Ed Sheeran and have been for many years since his first album + and have seen him grow into an international superstar. I am so excited for the rest of the songs on his new album of collaborations 🙂
4. May Myself and I- As previously mentioned in many posts I am a a big fan of Carries so I have been absolutely loving her daily video project in May called May, Myself and I where every day she has been posting a video based off a word prompt 🙂 Every day has been bringing something new and exciting and I love the idea because it means that other people can join in as well because she posted the word prompts a few days before 🙂

March Favourites 2019 :)

Six The Musical- My friend Ellie actually recommended this show to me when I went round there one evening and since then I have been listening to it constantly! My three favourite songs are Ex-Wives, No Way, Don’t Lose Your Head, and Six. I love their performance at West End Live- Millie Connell who plays Anne Boleyn is absolutely amazing 🙂

Sucker- The Jonas Brothers: I loved the Jonas Brothers during their Camp Rock Disney days and then after when they started their music career. Although I love Nicks solo music and also DNCE I’m so happy that they are back together and loved #LateLateJonas.

Captain Marvel- On the 22nd of March I went to see the cinema to see Captain Marvel and I absolutely loved it! I love that this film is all about Female Empowerment and I also loved the storyline and going back to the start of the MCU and filling a few mysteries along the way such as what happened to Nick Furys eye. The Post Credit Scene made me so excited for Avengers Endgame which is coming out in April.

Heathers The Musical UK Cast Recording- I actually went to see Heathers twice throughout it run and absolutely loved it and wrote a blog post about it which can be found here. One of the reasons I enjoyed Heathers so much was the music so I was so excited when the Heathers Cast Recording was announced 🙂

February Favourites

Big cats about the house- This was a new show on BBC 2 where a keeper from The Big Cat Sanctuary in Kent hand-reared a baby Jaguar called Maya in his house!! He then looked after a 5 month old cheetah called Willow who is absolutely adorable! It also followed Miles as he ventured all over the world to visit different animal sanctuaries and other conservation projects.

The Secret Life Of A Zoo- This show follows the lives of the animals at Chester Zoo- I believe this was the seventh season of the show and I love the fact that they have continued to do the show for seven seasons because it means that viewers get to know the animals and become involved in their stories 🙂

One day at a time S3- I absolutely loved the first two seasons of this show and it feels like I have been waiting for Season 3 for ages! I love the fact that the show takes place over a year of the characters life so you get to see real change within the characters and their problems. This seasons main running theme was addiction which we saw through both Alex and Schneider in very different ways. The show also deals with mental health and lots of other issues.

Hayley Kiyoko- I actually went to see Hayley Kiyoko with Hannah near the start of the month and I absolutely loved it 🙂 She was an amazing performer and danced around the stage the whole time! I wanted to go see her in October but couldn’t get tickets so I’m so happy she decided to do an encore tour in Europe 🙂

Wonder Woman Podcast- This is a brand new podcast which came out at the start of the month and features Carrie Hope Fletcher who I have been a fan of for a few years now and also Celinde Schoenmaker. The podcast focuses on badass women and telling their story 🙂

Ralph Breaks the Internet- I loved Wreck it Ralph and the entire concept so was so excited to see the sequel and where Ralph and Vanellopes story went after the first movie. This movie is full of little cameos including Stan Lee and Miranda Sings. It also features most if not all of the Disney Princesses which was so cool!
