Hi everyone, it's Sunday and that means blog day, so here is another blog post for you guys this week. This week blog post is 10 fashion basics everyone should have. So if you want to find out what I think everyone should have. Hope you enjoy !   

1. Black leggings- everyone NEEDS black leggings, several pairs even. They are comfy, look good and work with pretty much everything. If you don't have anything get them NOW.

2. A plain tee shirts- For casual wear or to dress up. A plain coloured top either grey, white etc. Again you can wear them with everthing, even though's black leggings I mentioned previously !

3. Oversized jumper- I have several especially now that Autumn/winter coming a oversized jumper is perfect to cozy up in and enjoy a Netflix marathon. 

4. A leather jacket- I love my leather jacket, one they last ages, they are multi use either for a trip to the shops or a girls night out a leather jacket can be used! 

5- A good/comfy pair of jeans- Having a high quality pair of jeans is essential that will last well and you can wear anywhere but feel really comfortable and you feel like you can conquer the world in!

6- An evening dress- Any dress will do but a dress you can go out in either for a meal out or a party but can work for both. Basically a go to dress you feel confident and yourself in is the main priority. 

7- A comfy pair of pyjamas- everyone needs that one pair of pyjamas that after a pamper or if your just feeling down you can change into them and you feel warm, safe and comfy. I love new look or primark pyjamas. 

8- An everyday handbag- Just a bag that can carry your essentials is a must for a trip out, just a bag to add to your outfit, black or brown are best for everyday as they work with most outfits.

9- A pair of flats- just some easy slips on if your just popping to the shop or planning on going out they can be again dressed up or casual. Most are cheap but makes sure there comfy.

10- A pair of practical but comfy trainers- If your out walking or a big shopping trip your feet need to be comfy and pair of trainers is an essential.

Tips for back to school

HII everyone! This is another back to school related post. If your going into year 7 or just want some tips or advice for back to school then keep reading. Hope you enjoy ! Comment below what your looking forward to and not looking forward to about going back to school. 

Tip 1- Be yourself... Everyone thinks senior school you have to be like everyone else but you there isn't an exact way to look or be. So be yourself and people will like you for you and not a a model of someone else! 

Tip 2- Dont be afraid to socialise- Having friends in senior school is sooo important so the first day try and mix it up with new people or if your going into year 7 be confident and make new friends.

Tip 3- Be confident- Linking into the last too, you might be laying in your bed the night before thinking. OMG what if no one likes me, what if I'm late for class, what if I can't find the toilet ! Trust me everyone else is NERVOUS. So be confident, smile and be yourself and YOU WILL BE ALRIGHT. 

Tip 4- Stay organised- being organised in school is so important so either use the planner they give you or use your own. Make sure you write down homework due dates, test, important dates etc. Being on top of you school work will make your school life so much easier. 

Tip 5- Dont worry too much- I really need to not worry as much. School is annoying the early start but teachers are there to help you achieve and when a test comes up I worry like crazy as I want to do my best but you need to try and think if I don't do as well, I'm not going to die, it won't effect the rest of my life etc. So try not to worry too much even though I'm a worrying person! 

So here are 5 tips for back to school. I hope these help and comment down below what year your going into to.

How to make biscoff 2 layer cake

Hi everyone ! 

Hope your enjoying summer, today post is actually a recipe of a biscoff cake which I made. I personally love it but some don't so if you like those biscuit you get when you go to a cafe, keep reading ! 

Ingredients 

CAKE 

250g unsalted butter 

250g light brown sugar

250g self raising flour

3 eggs 

2tsp baking powder 

4tbsp of milk ( if needed ) 

This will make two layer 

Biscoff butter cream 

 150g unsalted butter 

200g icing sugar

2 big table spoons of biscoff smooth spread 

( add more or less for desired amount of icing and flavour ) 

Extras 

Biscoff biscuits 

Now how to make it-

1- heat oven to 180C and line two cake tins with baking paper to avoid sticking and leave to side.

2- Then in a bowl mix together with an electric whisk the butter and sugar until smooth. 

3- then add the flour, baking powder and egg and whisk or beat whatever working I used a bit of both. If the mixture a bit dry add some milk, I had to but see how it goes ! The mixture should be smooth and creamy.

4. Then evenly distribute the mixture between both tins and put in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown on top and when you stick a skewer in and it comes out clean then it's cooked.

REMEMBER BEFORE ICING YOU GOT TO LET THE CAKE COOL OR IT WILL BE A DIASTER ! I waited 10 mins with them in tin and then 45-1 hour to cool. 

Icing 

In a bowl start of by mixing just butter to cream up and then on a slow power keep mixing while you add the icing sugar. When all mixed up it should look smooth and like butter cream. Then add the biscoff spread and mix again to combine. Now have a taste test to see if you need to add more or add more icing sugar etc until your happy with you butter cream. 

Now to decorate-

Decorate how you desire, I didn't have any piping tubes but if you do there great I just used a palette knife to spread some in the middle, on top and made a wall around the cake out of the biscuits. 

Now for the finished cake 

So this is how you make a 2 layer biscoff cake. I LOVE it and I hope you do to and I would love to know if you had a try either comment below or send me a picture on my Instagram which is-
