My Top 3 Moments of 2016

Since it's the beginning of 2017, I thought that for today's post I would reflect on the year just gone. Looking back, I'd have to say that 2016 wasn't a great year for me but let's not dwell on the negative. Although there were some bad times, there also was some good ones. So here are my top 3 moments of 2016:

- Getting a job at Benefit Cosmetics -

Towards the end of the year, I wound up getting a job as a Beauty Advisor at Benefit Cosmetics. It was just a Christmas job but since I was a teenager, I'd always dreamed about working for Benefit because it is one of my favourite makeup brands. It was a really cool experience and I'm glad that I got a chance to work for such a great company. 

- Centenary trip to Dublin -

2016 marked the 100 year anniversary of the 1916 Rising in Ireland. I love Irish history so I really wanted to do something to mark the occasion. I ended up going to Dublin for a day with a friend and we went to all the major places where the rising took place. We went to the GPO which was the headquarters for the rebels of the rising. The GPO has a really amazing exhibition that includes real items and clothing that had belonged to some of the main figures of the rising. We also went to Kilmainham Jail where the leaders of the rising were executed. It was really cool but strange to be in all the places where these Irish historical events took place. 

-Day Trip to the Beach-

For my mom's birthday, loads of my family went out to celebrate which was really fun but the next day, my mom, my nana, me and my two sisters all took a trip to the beach. It was a lovely sunny day, which is rare for Ireland haha.We all sunbathed and just had a laugh on the beach, and it was a really nice trip.

Favourite Posts From 2014

Hey guys, I hope you are all having a great 2015 so far. For today's blog post I thought that I would look back at my favourite blog posts from 2014 and share them with you.  This is in the order the posts were published, not in order of preference, so it's starts from January and goes on from there. So here we go.

The first post is The Screen Actors Guild Awards 2014: My Best and Worst Dressed. In this post I pick my best and worst dressed of the SAG Awards like I did with a lot of other award ceremonies last year. Award season is coming up once again and I will be doing all my best and worst looks from the red carpets so keep an eye out if you like those sort of posts.

The next post is one called "Getting Up Early" where I talk about how much better I felt when I got up early and got all of my work done instead of leaving it hang over me all day until I finally did it.

The next post is my review of Benefit's Coralista blush from April which is one of my favourite blushes to use throughout the year.

Now on to another Benefit post: My Benefit Wishlist. In this post I list the top 5 Benefit products on my wishlist and explain why I think they would be great additions to my makeup collection. 

The next few posts are all blogger tutorials which are some of my most viewed posts on my blog. The first two are Starting a Blog: Creating and Adding a Header, and Starting a Blog: Adding a Background.

The next post in another blogger tutorial where I show you how to add social media icons to your blog. 

And finally, the last post is a simple autumnal outfit that I put together as a fashion post. This is my Snuggly Fall Fashion Look.

So those are my top blog posts from 2014. I hope you liked them and had a great 2014. Leave a comment below telling me which one of these posts was your favourite, or if you had another favourite that didn't even make it to this list.
