NOOOO!!! I'm not a traitor! I promise!!
Hey Guys!,
Now, I know what you must be thinking but your wrong! I'm no traitor, I'm not leaving this blog or blog spot.. I'm just simply starting a new "personal" blog on WordPress!! I'll link it below so you don't miss out on anything!...
Ok, so the idea of this new blog is to write about my everyday life.... Hmm.... Hang on, bare with me on this!
I just liked the idea of becoming a proper blogger and writing about things I love and just anything I think you guys would find funny or just interesting or just plain weird??
What you think?.... yes??... I guess its just a "wait and see kind of situation" huh?... yeah I agree..
For now its just a working progress (I've explained it a bit better on the new blog) but I'm hoping to be pretty active on there. Don't worry though, I will still be posting on here as well, I would love to use this blog for reviews and random stuff! In fact, I do have 2 (I think 3..) reviews already drafted so I'm hoping those will be up soon. I just wanna make sure I have all the details so I don't get trolled ha-ha..
Anyway, I'm gonna make this a short one so I hope you all go and check out my "new" first blog and tell me what you think?!
Here's the link to the new blog!: TheWSBeauty
Love you all! XO

Popwhaaaaa?... A PopSocket Darling!
Hellooooo my darlings!!..
How have you all been? It's been a while since my last blog and I have to admit, I've been so busy I forgot all about it ha ha.. I hope I make up for it in today's blog! So without further or do, here is my new addition to my phone case... The Popsocket!!!!
I will be putting all the links below so you can go get yourself one too!!.. I would never leave you guys out!..
So, first I have to tell you how I came about this. For a while I've been searching for these little things everywhere, I would see them on Viner's phones or Youtuber's cases and I just couldn't find them online, I would tweet them asking about it and obviously never get a reply.
I would type it in google "What is the hand grip on phone cases?" It would always show cases that have little wholes on the back and then I'd give up..
Then the other day I came across this YouTuber who is completely obsessed with this thing called a "Popsocket" and to my surprise that was the thing I was looking for.. I watched the video (I'll link it below for you! I love her!) and it was perfect!, I had to go and buy one.. I bought the Pink one, this just has a regular white base and white accordion..
There are so many options to pick from but because I wasn't sure if I'd like it I just bought a basic color. I bought mine off the UK website (Which I've linked below) and unfortunately you can't customize them on there, only the US site has this feature (also linked)..
So anyway, Here's my review on the Pink Popsocket!.. They retail at £7.99 and $10..
As you can see I have the beautiful Pink and White/Cream Popsocket and its so much better in real life, my camera didn't capture the full "pinkness" ha ha..
It's quite simple packaging, nothing extravagant..
All you have to do is just simply cut along the dotted line and ta-dah!!
I will say now that you may have to rip open the packaging to pop out the Popsocket properly, I didn't realize that till I popped it out ha ha..
Inside you get a little round booklet on how to attach it to either your phone or case.. I will say now that it won't stick to a Silicone surface!.. Unfortunately I have a genuine Apple iPhone case and it just ain't gonna stick! I'm actually quite upset about it... like really upset...
(After taking a break from writing this blog.. Something amazing happened!)
.......Wait a second!.. YES IT DOES! *Sudden revelation!*
.......What does??..
I will show you at the end! (Confused much??.. Bare With...)
The manual is pretty much straight forward, nothing to detailed. It just tells you how to extend and collapse the Popsocket, how to clean it just in case you drop it.. (Like i did when it popped out of the packaging.. I'm just a walking disaster me!) and how to remove it from the phone or case, just remember to NOT pull on the colored button!! You will break it then and that's not the objective here!
It also shows you how to customize it if you wish on the other side of the booklet (This again can only be done on the US site for now!)..
From the pictures it doesn't look like much but trust me it's a lot stronger than it looks, I have it on my iPhone 6 case and I have just held it by the button to see if it was sturdy and I didn't have to worry in the slightest! The sticky side of the Popsocket is made from gel and I'm telling you, this thing ain't budging any time soon!
This is a good thing!
All you need to do is get a rough idea where on the case you would like it, I positioned mine to sit where my hand is while I text and scroll.. If you wanted too, You could get 2 and have them parallel to each other and use it as a stand or a cord tidy for your headphones! You can put it anywhere and once you decide, pull of the plastic layer on the back and place it! Give it a good press and your all set!
Voila! You know have a beautiful Popsocket!
These are the links to both the United Kingdom and United States websites!!
My Pink Popsocket!.. Pink Popsocket
The US Site! PopSockets US
Link to Popsocket Video!.. Kimbyrleigha's Popsocket Video (Go and Subscribe as well!!)
Right now, like I said earlier you can only customize your Popsocket on the US Site, however the UK Site will be getting this feature soon! We hope!
...................................................................................................................................................................
Ok now, back to my "revelation".. Ok, so I took a break from writing my blog and while I did that I was really upset that I couldn't use my Genuine Apple phone case with the Popsocket, but as usual I hate being told I can't do something so I tried it!...
This has been on for a full day!.. It has not budged! The case itself is made from Silicone and the Popsocket has not budged! Its secure!.. It's not moving!.. AT ALL!.. I honestly don't know why they say it doesn't stick but so far all is well! (touch wood)..
So as of right now, I have proof that it sticks to silicone... Until I'm proven otherwise, it will remain on my favorite phone case!
I honestly love this product so much more than I thought I would, I would so recommend this to everyone!..
Ok, I can now (thankfully) shut up now and a massive thank you for getting this far! I do realize that I drone on sometimes but I can't help this! ha ha..
I love you all and I'll see you next time! XO

The Body Jewellery Shop = My Happy Place...
Why Helloooooo beautiful people!..
Today's blog is a lovely review on my favourite jewellery stores and that is (of course)... The Body Jewellery Shop!!
Now I have too say, this review is only the beginning as I've only just had my nose pierced and needed something in case it fell out or something haha.. But I had a little note with my purchase and I just couldn't resist this blog!! (Also, I was running out of time to comply with the note)... *Criptic*
So the first Nose Stud I'm looking at first is the Pink BioFlex Jewelled Nose Stud - Clear, Click Here for the link!!
Today's blog is a lovely review on my favourite jewellery stores and that is (of course)... The Body Jewellery Shop!!
Now I have too say, this review is only the beginning as I've only just had my nose pierced and needed something in case it fell out or something haha.. But I had a little note with my purchase and I just couldn't resist this blog!! (Also, I was running out of time to comply with the note)... *Criptic*
So the first Nose Stud I'm looking at first is the Pink BioFlex Jewelled Nose Stud - Clear, Click Here for the link!!
(Sorry for the picture qualities people, not my finest work!)
Ok, so I have many piercings and I just love BioFlex! It's so comfortable while still letting your face/body sparkle! I can already tell that this nose stud is gonna feel amazing and potentially heal my nose quicker as the BioFlex I bought for my scaffold/industrial healed it so much quicker with no repercussions.
Also, can we just take a minute to appreciate the "pinkness" of this stud! *Emoji w/ heart eyes*
Next is the Surgical Steel Nose Stud - Pink Jewelled Flower, Click Here for more info!!
This one I seriously can't wait to try on! This may not look all that in my photo (my fault haha) but this stud is actually quite.. Stable and BEAUTIFUL.. Like the jewels don't feel like they are going anywhere for starter and the actual steel part is solid! I honestly wouldn't expect anything less from BJS..
I have noticed that the BioFlex and this one have a deeper "C" curve to it than the little heart one but that's just an innocent observation.. No complaints here guys!!
Finally, I have the Surgical Steel Nose Stud - Heart, Click Here for this little sweet"heart".. See what I did there?! Huh?? SweetHEART!! Because it's a ...heart... Ok moving on..
Ok there is a much better photo on the link above (obviously) so don't let this one put you off at all!
This little sweet... Let's not go there again.. Is actually so beautiful, at first I was a little sceptical about the design as its so small.. I was worried that it might not look like a heart and just a really bad sculptured.. Thing... You know what I mean?
Anyway, as soon as I got it I instantly fell in love it and I cannot wait to put it in and do my second blog about this and the others! It's a solid steel like the others and I have no complaint at all!
I have to say that The Body Jewellery Shop is just awesome, their products are just top notch and I would recommend them highly and write more reviews if you guys would like me too?! Just leave me a comment if you do!!..
The link for their website is: https://www.bodyjewelleryshop.com
So, until the next time my pretties.. Goodbye!!

Vlogging?? Yes I'm Now A Vlogger too! *Shocked Emoji Face*
Hello Everyone!!
Longtime no see ay?!
So today's blog is about my new venture into the "YouTube-sphere".. Let me explain, bare with me now people.. I have for the last few months wanted to post videos of some sort to the internet but wasn't sure how to go about it.
I have some youtubers that I have looked up to for the past few years and always wondered "how do they do his everyday or every week?".. I wondered so many times if I could do it and if I'd be any good at it? Well I think I finally have an answer to all that.. I have been watching my favourite youtubers iJustine and her sister Jenna for the last 5-6 months and the inspiration I've been getting from them both is insane.
Every time I watch them I have the massive urge to do what they do. I want to vlog random things. I want to do travel videos.. (That's another thing, I want to travel so much now it's ridiculous!!). I want to do unboxing videos.. So I figured I should search a bit into the whole vlogging thing first.
Now, for the last few weeks I've even searching all about Vlogging and there are so many websites I've looked at and they are surprisingly really informative!. The first thing they mentioned was that I needed a decent camera but unfortunately for someone with little income, I can't afford the "great and fancy" DSLR cameras, so I was looking around for affordable compact cameras that were good for beginner vloggers and I found the Canon PowerShot SX610 HS Compact Digital Camera.. I am doing my next blog about this after this so stay tuned guys!!
This camera so far is just amazing, I was actually surprised at how good it was if I'm honest, (I'll put more in my review).. Now I got the camera, I needed a stand or tripod for it because lately I've hurt myself and not able to go out and do what I wanted to do it with it so for the time being I'm gonna be filming inside and stuff like that. I also just bought myself a monopod (Selfie Stick) for it and I love it haha, Next, I was to come up with a good vlog name and to make sure I'm up to the task of editing and dedicating my time to it, I'm not gonna lie it sounds really hard and daunting in that respect.
A part of me is hoping that I can do it and not give up like I always do (I payed a lot for that camera haha). I want to document random things and unboxings of products that I buy, I want to do all of that and especially as I'm moving to America next year I want to travel and document my adventures and life as I make that big change. But right now, living in the UK is really boring and un-interesting but I will try my very best to make a good job if it.
So in conclusion (I feel like I'm rambling now), I am going to start a Vlog and I'm hoping it's gonna start soon as it can as I have to wait for a few things to arrive and I will be doing reviews on them as per usual, I'm hoping they'll be ok and as soon as I post to my channel, you'll be the first to know my beautiful viewers!!l.. Also if you've followed me for a while you'll know this but have another blog channel that I will put a link for in my next upload for ya'll to have a ponder at..
So until the next time my lovely's.. Goodbye!!

My First Review - The Fitbit Flex!!
Hi Everyone!
This is my first review of anything on my new blog and I'm so excited to share the FitBit Flex with you!!
I hope you enjoy..
So this is the FitBit Flex in Pink, I recently purchased this a few days ago and I'm still figuring everything out, so bare with me.
Today is just my initial view of this product and then I'll post an update of how I'm getting on with it.
As you can see, it's very minimal. It doesn't look like there's anything too it?! Just looks like a regular wristband, but let me tell you.. It does so much more than just look nice on your arm!
I bought this mainly because I needed a bit of motivation in my life to actually get up and do something, even if it was to walk to the end of the road and back.
I'm not a very health conscious person so I figured this would be a good start. Luckily this also has the feature to track my sleep pattern (Which I personally love), I'm really hoping this will give me the motivation I'm looking for and help along side my new diet routine.
So, to start with, this is the packaging when you purchase this. (I think it looks pretty good?!) I bought mine from Tescos because it was cheaper than the regular site and I didn't have a lot of money to spend. The box is pretty well descriptive, it tells you what's in the box (of course) and all the different things you can keep track of!
The box contains:-
*USB Charging Port - This can be plugged into any USB port you already have.
*2 Wristbands to hold the tracker - These come in 2 sizes, Small and Large.
*Wireless Dongle - This, you can plug into your computer or laptop to wirelessly sync your Tracker!
*Tracker - This is what all your activity is tracked on!!
As I mentioned, the bands come in 2 sizes.. Small for the dantier wrist and Large for the slightly bigger "dantier" wrist (trying to be nice, I hope it's working..)
They only come with one clasp, so you'll need to swap it if necessary. It's so easy to apply and surprisingly enough, doesn't annoy you. This was a bit issue for me as I hate wearing things around my wrist and was worried that I would constantly feel it and want to take it off straight off again, This wristband is great! I can hardly feel it and that's even better if your going to wear it at night for the Sleep Tracking!
The USB charger looks so weird at first but it perfectly fits the tracker (obviously haha), You do have to make sure you put it in correctly or you could damage either the Tracker to the Charger and you definitely don't want that!
Thankfully you'll only see this once a week as you don't need to charge every night, I'll talk about this more later on!..
This here is the little Wireless Dongle for any laptop and/or computer, he helps the tracker connect to your computer/laptop and sync all of the data you've collected over the course of the day..
You can sync the data via Bluetooth and the FitBit app which I have kindly screenshot for you, you can see that if you scroll down to the bottom..
This is great if you always have your phone with you and want to see everything you've track right then and there.
Finally!! The tracker!!
This guy can do so much it's actually really impressive! First of all I have to say that this version of the FitBit trackers doesn't have a Heart monitor. The FitBit Charge, which is the next model up (I believe) has the heart monitor and more features than this one.
As you can see from this picture and the one below its quite small and doesn't look like much, but hold on one cotton picking second my friend.. These are the things he can do:-
*Track Steps
*Track Calories Burned
*Tracks Weight - Weight Loss or to maintain your weight.
*Calories Eaten
*Water intake
*Km walked
*Minutes Active
*Sleep Pattern/Hours Slept
There is another bonus that the FitBit trackers have, they all last up to 5 Days off charge. Yes! You did just read that right! 5 days without charging it!! *insert shocked face* ..That includes wearing it at night and tapping the device during the day to see how far along you are! I know, it's brilliant! I've had it for 2 days and I only needed to charge it once for an hour to get a full battery!..
Thats quite a lot for a tiny looking device don't you think?!.. BUT WAIT..... THERES MORE!.. Look down!
The tracker also features LED lights at the top of itself, these all mean something.
Now again, I've only had this for a few days so I'm still getting used to all of the different lights and what they do and mean but I have figured out some of them that I'll tell you about.
Ok, so if you want to track how much progress you've made on your steps through the day and can't get to your phone or computer to sync, double tap the device and it will flash some lights..
If it flashes 1 light - This means you've completed 20% of your steps goal..
If it flashes 2 lights - This means you've completed 40% of your goal..
In essence, each of these lights stand for 20%.. So all 5 lights means you've completed 100% of your daily goal of however many steps you've set it too.
Other lights I've seen is when you put it into Sleep Mode. To put it in Sleep Mode you tap the tracker a lot and you'll see 2 lights that start to dim and then go off, your now in sleep mode for the night and this also preserves the trackers battery to minimise charging.
To come out of Sleep Mode, tap it again a bunch of times and the you'll see 2 lights appear and then some more lights after that, these second bunch of lights tell you the battery percentage (I think they do anyway?!)..
Another feature is that you can set an alarm on the tracker via your phone or computer, this will activate a "Silent Alarm" for when you want to wake up and I'll tell you.. This was such a weird feeling! I have to admit.. It tickled my whole arm, but was very affective in waking me up because I started laughing!.. I'm definite awake now FitBit, Thanks..
But of course, you don't have to set this Silent Alarm, it's just an added bonus if you hate loud alarms. (Which I do.... With a passion)
It's quite simple to put the tracker in the band, you just have to make sure that you put it in the right way, but really there is only one way you can put it in.
The clasp and segments snap together really well and you don't have to worry about it coming off accidentally at all, it's very secure!..
See, simple and it looks so nice, these come in different colours of course. I just had to have the pink one though haha..
Now, don't quote me on this but apparently this wristband is Water Resistant, I haven't (yet) proved its resistance as I just bought it and don't want to risk breaking it yet. They say that you can wear it in the shower with no problem, washing our hands is fine and anything like that would be OK..
Just don't go swimming with it on, it will get damaged. That's what I believe anyway, many people say that swimming is ok, but I personally don't trust that theory.
Ok, so as much as I want to sing the Flex's praise.. I do have one concern about it and that's when it tacks my steps, I've noticed that I hit my first step goal pretty quickly today and I don't remember walking that much (I might have but I doubt it haha). I was thinking that maybe.. Just maybe.. It's tracking my wrists movements and thinking I'm walking when in actual fact im just typing or writing something, that thought did cross my mind but I will have to see..
Right! These are the app screenshots that I took and spoke of earlier, as you can see it tracks quite a bit and doesn't skimp on the details.
I'm reasonably impressed by how detailed this app is and as a bonus, I can tie this app in with another that I have called My Fitness Pal. That just tracks my food intake and it now tracks the steps I have taken from the FitBit app. This is very handy to have.
You can also track with your friends, be them from Facebook or our contacts.. If your friends or family have a FitBit tracker (any model) and the app, you can all compete with each other to see whose the healthiest or just cheer them on and be supportive! Completely up to you that one!..
As you can see, the Flex has something to offer people of all different kinds of athletic levels. Like I mentioned, I bought this just to get me going and keep me motivated, to try a be a little bit more healthier.. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this as much as I enjoyed writing it,
I will be writing an update in about a week to 2 weeks just to let you know how I got on with it and if it's made any difference to my activity level, let's hope it does because between me and you, I hate wasting money haha..
Till next time my lovely's.. XO
