New year, new beginnings ✿

Hi everyone and welcome to my blog 'msbellamia'!

I'm super excited about this blog and I hope I can share my excitement with other people too! What you can expect from this blog is many posts that are beauty, fashion and lifestyle related. These will range from product reviews to just my general thoughts and opinions. I am going to put my heart into every in hope that you reading this will enjoy them just as much as I will enjoy writing them :)

So why did I make this blog? Well I've always wanted to make a blog and a YouTube channel showcasing my love for the beauty and fashion industry in particular, but procrastination and self doubt always got in the way. Now, I'm not going to say the generic 'new year, new me', but it is the beginning of 2014 and my gap year so I thought it was the right time for a blog since I will have a little more time on my hands.

Just like I want to get to know my readers, I believe that you should also know the girl behind the words. My name is Megan and I am 18 years old. Yes, I know that the name 'msbellamia' has nothing to do with Megan but my name wasn't pretty enough for the face of my blog.. Thanks Mum. Anyway, I am lucky enough to live in the sunny and beautiful Gold Coast in Australia and also be born and raised in the equally gorgeous New Zealand! Now, I could bore you with every detail of my life so far but instead I'm going to give you 10 quick facts about myself :D

1. I grew up in a small town but I'm definitely more of a city girl.

2. I was accepted into university to study journalism but decided to have a gap year.

3. I never stop talking and ask A LOT of questions which makes sense for me to become a journalist.

4. I'm obsessed with the TV shows Pretty Little Liars, Teen Wolf, The Carrie Diaries, Grey's Anatomy, Modern Family and the Big Bang Theory.

5. I like video games. And not in the 'it's cute for a girl to play video games with their boyfriend' kind of way, like I seriously enjoy playing them. Gamer girl.

6. I have the most amazing group of best friends and I wouldn't trade them for the world.

7. My sense of style is very girly and can be somewhat preppy.

8. I'm addicted to online shopping.

9. I'm obsessed with all things Disney and I still want to be a one of the princesses.

10. I love Zac Efron. A lot.

I hope you enjoyed learning a bit more about me and I look forward to seeing what this blog could bring in the future, I hope you will follow me on this journey! :*

Now, I will leave you with this picture of cute puppies hanging on a clothesline.

Love, Megan xxx
