I was nominated for the Liebster Award by Kelly from MonPetitBlog. I have been blogging for a year but nothing serious. This is a hobby and I know I sometimes lack in the post department! I'm delighted that my little has been noticed by someone!
The Liebster Award is passed between bloggers (like a chain letter I guess) with less than 1000 followers, although sometimes I read 200 followers. I don't think it matters though!
Liebster means dearest, beloved from my research. These Liesbter Awards are a great way to find new blogs and promote your favourite blogs.
The questions I was given to answer:
1. Fashion or beauty
Beauty. I'm clueless when it comes to fashion. At least with beauty I know what I can and cannot wear!
2. What is your all time favorite
brand?
Benefit. I don't know what it is but I go weak at their counter and need to buy everything.
3. What’s the best thing that happened
for you this year?
Got myself a job, made new friends and booked a trip to London. All connected to each other.
4. Who do you spend the most time
with?
My friends. They get me!
5. Your favorite type of music?
I listen to most types of music as you can see from my Music of the Week posts on here.
6. Where have you travelled to?
Turkey, France, Italy, Spain, Germany, Scotland, Wales and England. I have been outside of Europe. I want to go Las Vegas, New York, Texas, LA, Australia, South Africa and Cancun. Anyone want to volunteer to fund this!?
7. Texting or phoning?
Texting and I'm not even the best at that! I prefer talking face to face.
8. If you could pick 1 thing to do
tomorrow what would it be?
Travel!
9. And who would you take with you?
My bestie. She's as mad as I am so we'd have no problems going new places.
10. Favorite accent?
Um, I have never had a favourite accent. Maybe the north one. Tommy Bowe's accent. Yummy!
11. Favorite blog and why?
Yikes! I have so many.
There are loads more I love though.
Random Facts:
1. I used to play the piano and I want to go back taking lessons again.
2. No one at home knows about my blog.
3. I have a fear of birds. They are frightening!
4. I'm a fan of both The Wanted and One Direction. Apparently you're not allowed to be. Meh!
5. I love candles. Black Cherry is my favourite.
6. I enjoy trying new food and flavours.
7. I'm the girl who cries at movies in the cinema. Can't contain my emotions!
8. I have a weakness for shoes and handbags.
9. My nephew and nieces mean more than the world to me. I will do anything for them.
10. I turned 25 three weeks ago and I still can't believe I'm 25!
11. I want to get a better camera to take a million more photos of my family.
My questions to you:

The rules of the
Liebster Award.
If you have been
nominated for The Liebster Award AND YOU CHOOSE TO ACCEPT IT, write a blog post
about the Liebster award in which you:
1. Thank the person who
nominated you, and post a link to their blog on your blog.
2. Display the award on
your blog — by including it in your post and/or displaying it using a “widget”
or a “gadget”. (Note that the best way to do this is to save the image to your
own computer and then upload it to your blog post.)
3. Answer 11 questions
about yourself, which will be provided to you by the person who nominated you.
4. Provide 11 random
facts about yourself.
5. Nominate 5 – 11 blogs
that you feel deserve the award, who have a less than 1000 followers. (Note
that you can always ask the blog owner this since not all blogs display a
widget that lets the readers know this information!)
6. Create a new list of
questions for the blogger to answer.
7. List these rules in
your post. (You can copy and paste them from here.)
Once you have written
your post, and published it, you then have to:
8. Inform the
people/blogs that you nominated that they have been nominated for the Liebster
award and provide a link for them to your post so that they can learn about it
(they might not have ever heard of it!)
I would like to add that
you can nominate someone who already has been given this award, as long as they
have less than 1000 followers/subscribers. The idea behind this award is to
recognize new bloggers and help promote them! The benefit is that you get from
doing this is that you get some promotion, too!
