My Scottish Adventure!: 2015 | Perfect Fixations

Hello darlings

Last Thursday i got back from my holiday in Scotland, i had so much fun and did so many cool things i thought i'd share it with you. I went for a week, we took the sleeper train up, which was actually really cool as i've never been on a sleeper train before. It consists of you getting on around 8pm in London and having dinner on the train, then hanging on in the sofas until you go to bed. You then wake up in Scotland around 8am and have breakfast. As you can expect sleeping on a train isn't easy, even with a comfy bed, but waking up and having breakfast while going through the mountains definitely made up for it. It was amazing.

We stayed in Inverness which was so pretty as it was sounded by mountains. It was quite a big place but everyone was really friendly. While there my family went skiing in Aviemore, we went shopping in Edinburgh,my brother bought a kilt! We walked to Lockness but unfortunately didn't see Nessie. We took the train up to Kyle of Lochlash and Thurso which is the furthest North you can go in Scotland.

Overall i had a pretty cool time, so here are a few pictures i took.
I hope you enjoy :)

Travel Makeup: Scotland | Perfect Fixations

Hello darlings

Today i thought i'd share with you 'whats in my travel makeup bag'. I did one of these last year when i went to Amsterdam. As i'm going on holiday this week to Scotland i thought i'd share with you the items and the makeup bag that i'm planning to take with me. I’m known for not travelling light and it the same with my makeup. I've tried to take only the 'essentials' with a few different options thrown in to!
I hope you enjoy
