My March Favourites!

As we come to the end of March I decided that I would pick up a more common blog post that I have seen, It's Called the Monthly Favourites Post! Each month, I will tell you guys what I have been liking, from food to products, personalities, clothing, music, and movies. I will also rate it from 1 to 10, and try to tell you where you could find it, if you were interested!


Music: 

1. Baptized by Daughty (Album) 

Baptized is the fourth studio album to be dropped by the band since the beginning of their Career. The album dropped 11-19-2013, and I have been in love with ever since! My favourite songs off of the album are Baptized and Battleships. Overall I give the album an 8 out of 10

2. Mastermind by Rick Ross (Album)

Mastermind is the sixth studio album by superstar rapper Rick Ross. The album dropped 03-03-2014, and has since them dominated all of the pop culture music charts. Years before this album came out, I knew that it was going to be absolutely amazing, and that it was going to take the hip hop industry by storm! My favourite songs off of the album are Shots Fired, The Devil Is A Lie, and War Ready, I would without a doubt give the album a 10 out of 10, and I highly recommend it for anyone that is into rap. 

3. Louder by Lea Michelle (Album) 

Louder, Lea Michelle's debut studio album, dropped on 02-28-2014, and has since then been talked about, and featured almost daily! When I first heard the album, I was blown away by the pure soul and dedication that was put into each & every song. My favourite songs off of it are Burn With You, Louder, Cannonball, and just about every other song! For this reason, I would without a shadow of a doubt give the album a 10 out of 10, and highly recommend that you listen to it!

4. Young Money: Rise of An Empire by YMCMB (Compilation Album)

Young Money: Rise of an Empire is the second compilation album to have been released by Young Money Entertainment since their creation. The collab filled album dropped on 03-11-2014, and feature they new and old of Young Money as well as some special guest artists. My favourite songs off the record are Trophies, We Alright, and Lookin A$$. I would give the album a 7 out of 10, and only recommend it if your into the mainstream, and more aggressive rap.

5. DEMI by Demi Lovato (Album)

DEMI is Demi Lovato's fourth studio album since the beginning of her career. since it's release on 05-10-2013, the album has be at the 3 spot on the Top 40 list in almost every country in the world, not to mention that it has gone Platinum, Double, and Triple Platinum all the way up to Gold already! Compared to broken, I think DEMI is a smash hit! I defiantly fell in love with the album as soon as I heard it, and I fell in love with Demi all over again as well. I would rate the album 10  out of 10, and HIGHLY recommend it to ANYONE!

6. Tupac Back by Meek Mill (Single)

Tupac Back was Meek Mill's first Studio Single, which he recorded shortly after being signed to the prestigious Maybach Music Group Label. This song was also one of the headliners on Selfmade Vol 1. The song dropped 04-05-2011 and truly showed the world what Meek Mill is made of, since then, he has been names the #3 Hottest MC in the world! Good Job, Meek! When I first heard this song, I fell for the lyrics, and had it on repeat for days! I would rate this song a 8 out of 10 and would recommend it to any Rap lover.


FOOD!

1. Al Biernat's (BURNAY) Dallas ($$$)
https://www.albiernats.com/

My grandparents recently came into town, and anytime they do, I know that I will be eating good food, and having a great time! Recently, we went out to this cheeky little Seafood/Steak House in Dallas. First impressions were that it was really popular, well stocked with booze, and that it was more than likely going to be expensive ($$$ at top). All 8 of us sat down at a round table, had a few rounds of drinks, and eventually ate some of the best food I have ever had in my life! If you go, I would recommend the Sea Bass on Risotto! When we were done, and the check came, we were nearly blown away, but still well within our means. You can expect to generally pay between $100 and $150 per person. I would give this restaurant a solid 10 out of 10 as far as service, atmosphere, and food! 

2. In N Out Burger ($$)

I have always had a STRONG love for In N Out Burger, but I was unfortunately relocated to an area where I did not think there were any location, little did I know that there are at least 6 locations in D/FW. Sure I have to drive 25 Miles for a burger, but it's well worth it!!!! Since figuring out where the nearest location is, I have been making weekly trips to my "Holy Land" to get my own piece of heaven! If you haven't had In N Out Burger yet, you have not lived, and I highly recommend it! They will always be a 11 out of 10 in my books! Bravo, Harry Snyder! 

3. Abuelo's Mexican ($$$)

Abuelo's is Mexican Cuisine Heaven! If you live anywhere in the south west and you have a hankering for some good home made Mexican, you need to find your nearest Abuelo's! Rather it's a car ride, or a plane ride away, I promise you it's worth visiting. I have only been 2 times, but I'm pretty sure that I am addicted to it. 

TV Shows, Movies & YouTube:

1. Zoella
https://www.youtube.com/user/zoella280390

Zoe Sugg A.K.A Zoella is a South West English YouTuber who does everything from common tags to Make Up, Fashion Hauls, Trend Alerts, and Light Hearted Holiday activities. I love her for everything that she is, and ever could be, because she is Smart, Helpful, Funny, and SOOOO Down To Earth. Every video shows the real her, and that's whats amazing about her. I have not missed a single video or vlog, and don't plan on it ever happening! Zoe if your reading this, please stay just the way you are! You are described as #GoneWithTheWindFabulous  

2. Rich Kids of Beverly Hills 
(Sundays at 9PM CST on E!)

Rich Kids of Beverly Hills is an inside look on the lives of Roxy, Jonny, Dorothy, Morgan, Brandon & EJ. As filming went down, none of the cast members held back, we saw high end designer brands, luxury vehicles, Holiday Trips, and even Half A Million Dollar shopping trips. All and all, this show defiantly is a good motivation to get to work. I don't want to spoil anything for you, so if yo want to know more, tune in! 

3. Jackgap Rickshaw Run Series
https://www.youtube.com/user/JacksGap

Jack & Finn Harries A.K.A Jacksgap took a 3 week trip to India back in September of 2013 to compete in a charity event called the Ricksaw Run, basically they were going to be traversing the width of the nation of India within a 3 week limit in a small golf cart like vehicle called a Rickshaw. During their trip, they were aiming to raise as much money as they could for the Teenage Caner Trust. Throughout the 3 week period, cameras were constantly rolling, and the boys along with the entire gang got to experience the culture of India. I would highly recommend watching the 4 part series sometime!  


Products:

1. AQUAhydrate Water
http://www.aquahydrate.com/

I love AQUAhydrate, but I have yet to find a place in D/FW that sells it. Since I discovered it back on holiday in June, I have had to order it by the case from the website. AQUAhydrate is special, because it has a higher pH level than any other water in the game, this is because ti is meant to be consumed before during and after a workout. essentially it is like Gatorade, but it doesn't have the sugar or calories, this in turn has helped me to feel a lot more fit to work out than I previously did. I recommend it rather you workout or not. 

2. Rich & Foamous Almond Oats & Brown Sugar Body Washes & Bath Soaps by Soap & Glory

I have been using this product for around a year now...MY ALL TIME FAVOURITE alongside rich and foamus. The smell islike none other!! And its such a good moisturiser too, I use it every day its not greasy on the skin either, which I love! Steer away from this if you don't like sweet smells..go for sugar crush if you like fruity and righteous butter if you like fruity/floral scents. There really is something for everyone in the S&G ranges..and this is definitely for me!!! I will always buy this product, I have 2 bottles that a friend brought me back from London, and they are prized possession!

3. Gucci Guilty Black by Gucci
http://www.sephora.com/guilty-black-P378267

Gucci Guilty was a part of Gucci's newest chapter of their Guilty line, it is a light, and very comforting smell, that could never possibly be over bearing. When you smell it, you will think it is French, because of how delicate the smell is. It is something new for Italian Fragrances, and is defiantly a good choice!


Thank You so much for reading, I will be back next Friday with a whole new topic! Until then, keep up with me though all of my social media, you never know what little tips or trend I may be talking about throughout the week!
