GCSE Results day !!

Yesterday was the most nerve - racking and scariest day of my life !! I got my GCSE Results !!! Although I am not the only person in the whole entire world to get their results I still find it a really scary day !! 
For two long years I had been studying my GCSEs which leads to the final steps of my school life !!!! How scary is that.... End of school completely the rest is just choices !! 
I know it's a day late but I wanted to wish everyone who say their GCSEs this year congrats on your results ! Hopefully they were what everyone wanted ! I know mine were! And I want to wish everyone the best of luck for the future !!!
Sorry this is a really short post but hope you guys enjoyed it !!!

Dress number 2 is finally complete !!

After many stress free weeks and time off from school due to finishing my GCSE's I have been able to complete the second dress that I was making ! 
As I'm sure many of you are not aware but I am dreaming of becoming fashion designer when I am older! And to help with that dream I have created a few pieces to help kick start my career (hopefully). 
This time round I have decided to go vintage chic and create a dress based on the 1950/60s. To do this I used I navy and white polka dot silk like material to make the actual dress, and to add a bit of volume I brought a black petticoat , to make it look vintage! 
This compared to the other dress I made which was based on the London Underground , was the hardest to make ! Due to the material being really "fiddly" and having a mind of its own. 
Thank you so much for reading this blog , hope it wasn't to long and boring! Let me know what you think in the comments below and p.s I am so sorry about the quality of the first picture !! 
Love Ashleigh xx

Baking: Tanya Burr's Triple chocolate cookies

Hey hey lovelies,
Sorry I haven't posted in a while I have been sooooooo busy and had a few things going on. Recently me and my friend Niamh who you may know as Niamh Jones , from her YouTube channel, created Tanya Burr's triple chocolate cookies ..... And oh my god they are amazing ! For me cookies have to be soft on the inside and a little bit crunchy on the outside and this is just how Tanya makes them ! Let me know in the comments below about how you like you cookies. Here is a link to Tanya's blogpost with the ingredients and instructions on if you are planning on making them.
