My 2nd Bloggerversairy

So my little blog has turned 2....well I never! 
To celebrate this not so massive for any one but me event, I thought I would share some of my favourite posts from the last year so we can all look back......nostalgia. 
At the start of last year I applied for the quiz show Two Tribes and by some miracle they found me charming and entertaining enough to let me on. This may seem a bit silly to some people but as I'm not always the most confident of people I was very proud to have accomplished this. I wrote all about my experience of the show here.
I competed in Total Warrior last year and it was tough tough tough. It was definitely a memorable and  very fun experience, I had mud in places where mud should never be!  I wrote all about y experience here.
Last year I discovered the Ultra bland cleanser from Lush and we got on like a house on fire. It's definitely up there in my all time favourite products If you would like to read more about it then click here
This is one of my favourite posts of the year purely because I love the pictures. Thank god for my mum having a duck egg shed that looks like a beach hut! This is also where I made some rather yummy summer drinks. If you'd like to see some more of this then click here.
This one was one of my Halloween looks from this year. I created a few looks but this one was my favourite as I tried a few different techniques and felt like it worked really well. I am definitely no make up artist so it was still very simple to create. If you would like to see how I did it then have a look here. 
Visiting my friends in London is one of my favourite things to do. They've all lived there for a while now so it's great to see the not so touristy side of things. I remember having such a good time on this trip. Cheap theatre tickets, my first time at a vegetarian restaurant and ciders in the park on a sunny day, what more could you ask for. If you'd like to see what else I got up on this trip then click here. 
 
Lush is one of my favourite places all year round but it has a special place in my heart over Christmas. I discovered some real gems this year that I look forward to stocking up next Christmas. I loved the pictures on this post too, but sparkly bath bombs make that easy. If you'd like to see what else I got then click here. 
This is the look I created for Valentines day last year. I was really happy with how the look came out and I really liked how the pictures came out too (I don't just mean my face, I mean the product pictures really) I have a new valentines look coming up son but if you would like to see this one then click here.
When I discovered the Maybelline colour drama lip pencils I fell in love. I loved every single one I tried and raved about them to every one I knew. If you'd like to see more about them then click here. Try them, you'll love them! 
Leaving to go travelling was one of the most exciting and nerve racking experiences ever! I'm here now and loving it and I'm so pleased we decided to take the risk and do it! If you'd like to read a little more about my adventures then click here.  As I'm still travelling currently make sure to follow my blog and have a look at my youtube channel to see what else I get up to. 
So there we go! 2 whole years of The Robyn Christina. While it's still a smaller community I'm pleased to have you here and I will keep working hard create posts that you enjoy! If you'd like to share my posts with any one you think may be interested then I'd really appreciate it. I really hope this post hash;t seemed like one massive plug, I just wanted to share my favourites with you so we can all get nostalgic. Thanks for supporting me so far!

My 1 year Bloggerversairy

Hello!
Today it is officially one year since I started my own blog. It's something I'd been contemplating for a while and, whilst I was still full of new year's motivation, decided to pluck up the courage and go for it. It's a decision I'm really proud of and is now something that takes up a lot of my time in the best way possible. For a little celebration I've decided to group together some of my favourite posts from the first year of 'TheRobynChristina' So grab a drink, get comfy and let's have a little trip down memory lane.
 
 
This was written all the way back in March when me and the boyfriend had a little trip to Blackpool. I absolutely love Blackpool and it seems like lots of you do too as this has been my most read post so far. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't drooling just looking at those donuts.
 
 
In March I did a little series of top 5's. As lip products are definitely some of my favourite things in the beauty world, this was the toughest to try and narrow down but as I still use all of these items all the time I'd say I did a pretty good job.
 
 
This post was all about my trips away to visit friends. These are some of my favourite posts to write about as I can re-live all the giggles we had.
 
 
I absolutely loved creating this Halloween look. I hadn't really done anything like this before and was quite impressed with how it turned out. This Halloween I'm definitely gonna try out a few more ideas, I'm already excited to see what I can come up with.
 
 
I spent my 24th birthday in Paris with my lovely boyfriend. I decided to do some outfit posts while I was there, I'd never done this before and I must admit it felt a bit strange getting my pose on in very busy tourist spots but I'm pleased with how they came out.


In December I made these little cuties as a tasty Christmas treat. They were all eaten before Christmas day, always a good sign!
 
Well there we go. When I see it layed out in front of me like this I'm really proud of what I've created this year and I have lots more ideas waiting to be tuned into posts. If you enjoy reading them then please clink the link to follow. It's totally free and means you'll be informed straight away when there's something new to read. I can't wait to see where my second year of blogging takes me!
