MUSIC, TV + BOOKS AT THE MOMENT | FEBRUARY

Hello everyone! Just a little over a month ago now, i shared my current non-beauty favourites from tv, books, fashion and of course music. In that post i shared a couple of things that i was listening to/watching/reading at that moment in time, as well as some of things i was looking forward to. With that in mind for today's post i thought why not share an updated version of my music, books and tv favourites at the moment...

dvsn - sept 5th (spotify album linked)

So to kick things off with the album that i have been listening to pretty much every single day recently and i am literally obsessed with it, even though it was first released in 2016. I had only ever listened to a couple of songs by dvsn before, including one on Majid Jordan's latest album but i decided to listen to some more from them. Out of the two albums the Sept 5th album is definitely my favourite and i love every single track on it, that being said my ultimate favourites from the album are With Me, Too Deep, Hallucinations and Do It Well.

 fifty shades freed soundtrack (spotify album linked)

I loved so many songs from the Fifty Shades Darker soundtrack and the case has been the same if not more from the final instalment, which i have been to see twice now at the cinema and it was literally everything and more! Just like the previous two soundtracks some tracks were just instrumental rather than lyrical, which i tend to only listen to the lyrical ones. My favourites from this soundtrack are Sacrifice, Heaven, Capital Letters, Heaven, High and of course the official song for the movie For You.

afterburn aftershock movie (amazon video link) (passionflix link)

If you saw my Valentine's post a little over a week ago, sharing eight films to watch this Valentine's day evening then you will already have read me talking about this particular film. Just in case you didn't though, this is a romance book (which i have read) turned into a film by PassionFlix and i ended up loving it equally as much as the book, so much so i have seen it three times ever since first watching it. I also loved the film Hollywood Dirt by the same PassionFlix service, which i also mentioned in my Valentine's Day related post (catch up here).

aurora teagarden tv movies (hallmark movies + mysteries linked)
So the other week i was searching for something to watch and i thought why not give these Aurora Teagarden murder mysteries movies a try, as i had seen Candace Cameron Bure saying she was on set for the latest movie over on her Instagram stories. I didn't expect to become as hooked as i have on them, so much so i have already watched four of them. There is also a bunch of different yet similar murder mysteries on Hallmark, which i might watch after i have watched all of the current ones from the Aurora Teagarden movies.

this man (this man book series) by jodi ellen malpas (amazon linked)

Finally moving onto books and if you read my recent books i want to read in 2018 (part one) post, then you will probably already know how excited i am for the new instalment of the This Man series by one of my favourite authors, which is being released next month. With that in mind i thought why not re-read the current three books just to refresh my memory (that being said once you have read Jesse you will never forget), that guy is intense and i am hoping he hasn't changed in the slightest!

MUSIC, TV, BOOKS + FASHION AT THE MOMENT | NON-BEAUTY FAVOURITES

Hello everyone! So last month (well last year now) i shared my first non-beauty favourites post in the longest time, which you can catch up on here if you haven't done so already. Seeing as it is a new year there is a lot of new things that i am loving non-beauty related, as well as a lot of things i am looking forward to that i already know will be favourites of mine from, tv to movies, books, music and fashion.

| music favourites | spotify links |
| heartbreak on a full moon - chris brown (album) | the space between - majid jordan (album) | for you (fifty shades freed) - liam payne + rita ora | beach house 3 - ty dolla $ign (album) | finesse (remix) - bruno mars feat. cardi b | william singe covers (playlist) | think about me - dvsn | code blue (fifty shades darker) - the-dream | alone - jesse ware | aura ii ep - elhae |  sex in the city - elliott trent | it's yo birthday - the-dream | h.e.r. volume 2 - h.e.r. (album) | 

| tv favourites | friends (netflix uk) |

This is an obvious favourite ever since January 1st, just like the majority of people in the UK with a Netflix subscription and that is binge watching Friends for the 1083483050th time. The thing that makes it different is you can simply pick and choose now the time and what episode you want to watch. I think Friends will forever be one of those shows you can watch over and over again without getting bored/still always find it hilarious.

| tv favourites | celebrity big brother (channel 5) |
Another TV show i have been watching religiously every night is Big Brother, well Celebrity Big Brother which is something i haven't stuck to watching for some time now and i usually just watch the launch and that is it. That being said i am loving this series, as they have switched things up slightly dedicating it to "the year of the woman" and celebrate the 100 years since women won the right to vote.

| book favourites | darker: fifty shades darker as told by christian |

If you have been reading my posts for a while then you will already know that i have been such a fan of all things Fifty Shades, ever since E L James first released the books and of course now the movies to match. Another thing she has also released is two of the three books, told from Christian's perspective of things and i have finally just got around to starting Darker (which has been so annoying as i have had it sat there ever since it was released at the end of November). Just like i knew i would be i am completely obsessed with it, because Fifty Shades Darker was my favourite book of the three and favourite out of the two movies so far. I am also so excited for the third movie coming out next month and the tickets have been booked for a girls night at the cinema.

| fashion favourites | my january must-buys (post link) |
So at the beginning of the month i shared a post filled with all of my must-buys for the month of January, which included quite a few of the items that i had recently picked up. Three of the items included in that post have become everyday favourites of mine, from the bargain sale DKNY wallet i picked up from House of Fraser to the Chanel Boy bag dupe from Shein and now that has become my everyday purse/bag combination. I have also been obsessing over these bargain detailed block heel ankle boots from Dorothy Perkins, which were a bargain £12 instead of £45, i can't wait to wear these (preferably when it isn't a rainy day).
