Two weekends ago the Annual Mgarr Frawli ( that's the Maltese word for strawberry) Fest was held. Here, in the small village of Mgarr, strawberry lovers from all over the island gathered up to celebrate the existence of this delicious succulent fruit!
Numerous stalls were set up and everything from strawberry tequila to strawberry candles could be found! There were stands selling strawberry milkshakes and smoothies, strawberry cakes, pies, muffins and chocolate covered strawberries. They also had a strawberry, bacon and blue cheese salad which my mum loved and strawberry sushi aka frushi.
It was a beautiful day and the turn up was great! Everything was freshly made and tasted delicious! Do you have any similar festivals in your home towns? Are you a strawberry fan like myself? :) Until next time,
Because Spring is my favourite season and I definitely do heart it, I decided to do the I love Spring tag which was started by the lovely Ingrid aka Missglamorazzi on YouTube. So without further ado...
1. Favorite spring nail polish?
These nail polishes were actually purchased a few years ago from Australia and they are my "Ulta 3" nail varnishes in Spring Blossom, which is a lovely pastel yellow and Spring Shower, a pastel blue. I always find myself turning back to these two lacquers during Spring time. (Featured above)
2. What is your must-have lip color this Spring?
My ultimate lip colour this spring is the Estée Lauder Pure Color lipgloss in number 11 - Passion Fruit Shimmer. It has a lovely scent and consistency. It's not too sticky and it provides a lovely shimmer to your lips. I love wearing it over my Rimmel lipstick in the shade 130 Daring which is a subtle coraly shade. (Featured above)
3. Show us your favourite Spring dress!
My favourite Spring dress is a maxi dress which I bought off of eBay however, it is by Atmosphere which is based inside Primark. I love it because it is a light material with a beautiful large floral print and it would look great with a denim jacket over it. (Featured above)
4. What's your favorite flower?
I think my favourite flowers would have to be Hydrangeas because they're just so pretty!
5. Favorite spring scarf/accessory?
In Malta it tends to start getting too warm for scarves during Spring, however, when it's breezy day I love wearing my green and brown vintage scarf with butterfly print which was given to me by my mother (Featured above). My favourite accessory is a floral headband from accessorize.
6. What spring trend(s) are you most excited about this year? (Makeup, fashion or both!)
I am most excited about trying bright orangey coral lips this Spring and fashion wise, floral print is always something I look forward to wearing.
7. Favorite spring candle?
This one's a no brainer for me it's the Garden Sweet Pea candle from Yankee Candle. Uggghh the smell is just AMAZING! I kid you not, you will have a nosegasm. (Featured above)
8. Favorite body spray/perfume for spring?
One of my all time favourite perfumes ever is the Vera Wang - Princess perfume and I just love wearing it all year round especially during Spring. (Featured above)
9. What is spring like where you live?
Spring is so so lovely here in Malta! The sun is shining and the birds are chirping and butterflies have emerged from their cocoons! You can lay out and get your tan. There's a slight breeze which is perfect because you can still wear light cardis especially since it still gets rather chilly in the evenings.
10. What's your favorite thing about spring?
I love how sunshine makes everyone happier! And everyone gets excited that summer is in its way! And baby ducks! I love how there are so many little baby animals being born!
11. Are you a spring cleaner?
I am a year round cleaner haha I have a little with of an OCD with rearranging things and keeping everything organized and it calms me down however, at the moment I'm so busy with studying that I don't have time to reorganize and rearrange everything.
12. Any plans for spring break or an upcoming vacation?
Sadly no :( I wish I did however I'm sitting for my A Levels in a month's time and I must study study study! I am looking forward to planning multiple summer vacations though :D
