It's that time again! Time to talk about my favourite things this month (already!?). It feels like this month has flown by, time is going so fast and it's actually scary. I'm really excited to show you my favourites this month though because I am truly in love with every single product on this post and I hope you'll find something to fall in love with too! I am currently in Greece and don't worry, I will be updating you on my journey very soon I am just currently trying to upload my photographs on very slow wifi! Another little update too, I was kindly invited to watch One Direction tonight in concert in Manchester VIP with Boohoo as part of their experience everything campaign so I'm really upset to be missing that (crying), but I guess nothing beats the sunshine, not even a slight chance of maybe meeting Harry Styles... So let's get back to the May favourites...

Australasia Restaurant Review Manchester & Katy Perry Prismatic Tour
When a massive box filled with goodies arrived at my door from Boohoo I didn't expect there to be Katy Perry tickets inside. The lovely people at Boohoo made a dreary week a little bit brighter by randomly sending me two Katy Perry tickets (thank you so much). This is part of their #experienceverything campaign so I decided to make a weekend of it, and stay in Manchester all weekend. I can't wait to show you what I got up to over the bank holiday weekend...

Easy Banana Ice Cream/Frozen Yoghurt Recipe
Happy Sunday! So lots of people have requested that I write up this recipe so I've decided to publish this on a rainy Sunday afternoon (it's rainy where I am anyway!), why on earth not! This is the easiest, healthiest, yummiest recipe. I decided to publish it firstly because lots of you asked on Instagram and secondly, because my first recipe post this month went down really well so I thought I'd do another one to mix things up a bit. Beauty and fashion are obviously my favourite things, but it's nice to talk about healthy, delicious food too and I couldn't not share this with you. As mentioned in my other recipe post, I am not a professional, this is simply a recipe I took from Pinterest and wanted to share with everyone because I personally love it.

BAKE: Easy, Healthy Banana and Oat bites
Hello! So a different one from me today, my first baking post, eek! I love baking, I always have and I always will, ever since discovering my Grandma's cookery book in the kitchen when I was little, I've been obsessed with baking. I'm not a professional or anything but I really needed to share these wonderful creations. I recently came across an amazing Instagram profile, a lady called 'LoniJane' who makes the most beautiful, healthy treats. I've been making lots of her lovely bits recently with my own added twists and first, I want to share with you these gorgeous banana bites. The great thing is, these are so so easy to make and hardly any ingredients are required! I hope you love them as much as I do.

May Wishlist!
Ah every month I find myself wanting/needing/lusting over more and more things. This month is no different. I tweeted (@emshelx) the other day to say how amazing the collections are in the shops at the moment and that's the same for the online world too. I found it so hard to only put 12 items on my wish list this month, the high-street has got it so right at the moment. I hope you love my May wish list as much as I do! It's time to lust and fall in love...

Best Hair Growth Products, How To Make Your Hair Grow and Updated Hair Extension Guide
So as most of you know, I have been trying to grow my hair since last August after a horrendous experience with bonded hair extensions. Hair extensions left me with bald patches, my hair had matted into dreadlocks and my hair actually snapped off in places. In the end, I was told that I had to either cut all my hair off and start again or well, I’d be left with nothing at all. I have always been a ‘length princess’ as my hair dresser used to say, I’ve always had long hair, even before I got extensions and I’ve never wanted to have short hair, in fact, I have extremely weak moments still, even though my hair is growing now, I do sometimes nearly crumble and get extensions again (they’re like an addiction). I decided it would be the right time to update everyone on the products and things that I’ve found have really helped my hair to grow back and re-gain it’s strength. I also wanted to give you an updated hair extension guide so you don’t have to go through what I’ve been through with bad hair extensions but hopefully it should answer any ‘which hair extensions should I buy’ questions that you may have, I get lots of people emailing me about which hair extensions are the best and which hair extensions they should be using so let’s hope this helps with that too! Basically, I really want to help people who are wanting to grow their hair or strengthen it... Let's go!

Fake Bake The Face Self-Tanning Lotion Review
If you're a regular reader of EmTalks you'll know two things about me, I love fake tan and I love having a naturally glowing face. When I heard about Fake Bake's new 'The Face' self-tanning face lotion, I jumped with joy. Now don't get put off because it's an anti-aging lotion, there's no better time to start the anti-aging process than now, the sooner you start the better, if you start when you're younger, you will help to prevent ageing. Now we've got that cleared up, it's time to tell you about my new favourite facial tanner...

Why Happiness Matters... The Guide To Happy
Hello everyone, so this is a really different blog post from me today but it's something I've wanted to write for quite a while now. Earlier this week I went for lunch with an old friend of mine and we were discussing the idea of happiness. What actually is happiness and is it the most (or one of the most) important things in life? What is happiness to me and is my idea of happiness different to your idea of happiness? Everyone is different right...? I decided to write a feel good post for people to look at when they're feeling down, something which will hopefully always make you feel good about yourself and realise that there's always someone in a worse situation than you, who would do anything to be in your position. I'm not saying that any of this is right, I'm hardly the queen of happiness but hopefully this will help some people turn a sad day into a happy day, sometimes put things into perspective and see that really, there is always something to smile about. I hope you enjoy this post and I'd like to dedicate it to a good friend of mine (you know exactly who you are)...
