Harry Potter Studios

Hello It's 2 Peas In A Pod Blog,

Hello everyone and welcome to our blog! Hope you are all having a lovely day and you are enjoying the Christmas spirit. So it's jade here today. So a few weeks back I went on a trip with college to the Warner Brother Studio tour for Harry Potter. Us Brits take pride in Harry Potter so we were all excited. I've been lucky enough to go before a few years ago but I feel like I appreciated it more this time due to going with my fellow film and media class mates as that is what we are interested in. So let's get on with the blog post!

First off I was amazed that when I went they had decorated it all christmasy. It was so magical it was unreal. So all the sets were magical. 

I took loads of photos however I didn't want to ruin the whole tour for those who will be visiting it later in their lives. I mean I know you've seen it in the films but it's different in the studios.

The grand hall was decorated all festive and it was so magical! I just hope our dining room looks as packed on Christmas Day as this one does.

I was very surprised by the house I knocked on the 'brick' and it was hollow. It's polistirine almost, how real does that look!! 

We got to go on the hogwarts express it was actually quite big and each train seat etc had been decorated to represent each movie. Very clever. My favourite Harry Potter film is The Goblet Of Fire.

These were some of the costumes the actors wore during the filming of Harry Potter. 

This was one of my favourite sets, so pretty. 

Dargon alley was so life like it was amazing, I loved the weasely twins shop. 

This is Hogwarts. They use a small replica to do the above head shots. As they had decorated the studio for Christmas, Hogwarts also had snow on it, magical. I loved it.

I really enjoyed my time at Warner Brother studios, I wish that one day I will get to work on an amazing set like that. The hard work that went into designing them sets is just amazing hats off to them. One thing that did annoy me was in the gift shop they had ran out of Ron Weasely wands!! I was like what nooo. So I went on the online store and they had sold out there too. So upsetting.

Anyways thank you for taking the time to read this blog post, I really enjoyed my time and I'm glad I got to share some pictures with you. What's your favourite Harry Potter film? I hope I haven't spoiled it for those who will be going soon!!

Jade's July Favourites

Hello Its 2 Peas In A Pod Blog Here,

Hello everybody and welcome back to our blog. Today's blog post will be by me, Jade. The post today is all about my July favourites, wow August already? This year has gone by so quick. I can't believe that this month I will be collecting my GCSE results. Mad, I know. However, I must say I am super excited that we are coming closer to the festive seasons like Halloween and Christmas. Be sure to stay tuned for festive themed blog posts. Anyways let's get on with my July favourites.

My first favourite of July is my Ted Baker handbag. I genuinely still can't believe I own one. For since I can remember I've always wanted to own a Ted Baker handbag, but they are just too much money. So when I went to Nottingham I did my usual go into the designer shops and dream about owning such beautiful clothing. However, when I went into the Ted Baker shop I was surprised to see a sale. So I walked in not expecting to buy anything but I saw this handbag and I fell in love with it. The rose gold metal and the light grey leather. Urghhh it's so beautiful. I looked at the price tag and saw £299, I was gobsmacked at the price. Then I saw the new sale price which was £125. Which I think is a massive bargain for what the handbag was originally. So I treated myself and I have not regretted it since. How cute is it?

My next favourite is Zoella Beauty. So recently Zoë released her new range sweet inspirations and everybody was raving about it. Unfortunately, my local Superdrug didn't stock it. However, as soon as they stocked it I was ready to buy the products I wanted.  So I bought the bath latte, fizz bar and the sugar dip. I wanted to buy the spritz but there were none in stock. However, I absolutely love the scent it reminds me of marshmallows. The bath latte is so soft on my skin I absolutely love it.

My next favourite is the NYX soft matte lip, I got these because im so obsessed with the Kylie Jenner  lip kits but could never get my hands on one so this was the closest. Can I just add I have 2 weeks until my Candy K lip kit arrives, I'm so excited. However, these soft matte lips are just amazing they dry easily and are easy to apply. The two shades I bought were Stockholm and Cannes. They are very similar in colour but I love nude shades so I wasn't prepared to jump into other shades without trying the product itself first. But they last a good amount of time and don't dry out your lips too much which is a bonus. I definitely recommend them.

This is a weird favourite of mine and I know some people won't like it. I'm currently watching the tv series 'Brief Encounters' which is on itv. It's a show about the late 70's and women looking for work. They basically end up working for Anne Summers. It's not weird like many would think it's very much about how women weren't valued with equality of the men etc. It's very interesting and I enjoy it very much.

My last favourite is the shop coconut lane. As you know we recently became Coconut Queens and we were able to give you lovely readers a 20% discount code which is 'peas20', so make good use out of it.  It's a good online shop that sells amazing wall art and novelty gifts. I have a supercute wall art that I bought ages ago on my wall and I love it loads. You should definitely check it out at http://www.coconut-lane.com

I hope you have enjoyed this blog post and I have given you some inspiration in what to treat yourself to this month. I hope you have an amazing week and enjoy what you are doing. I think this might be the last time I get to write on my own before results day, so I hope you get the results you want and if not don't worry, it's not the end of the world. Keep laughing ☺️

What Jade Got For Her Birthday

Hello It's 2 Peas In A Pod Blog Here,

Hello everyone and welcome back to our blog ! A lot has happened since we last did a blog post, I've (Jade) have officially turned 16, Lydia and I went to see 5 Seconds Of Summer !! You can catch up on all of that on our blog as we documented it! Anyway on Thursday I turned 16! Which is exciting I guess. So I thought I would do a blog post on a few things that I got for my birthday. Thank you to everyone who got me a birthday card or present. 

The first thing I got for my birthday was this gorgeous necklace from Warren James. I received this from Stephanie and it's called 'The Tree Of Life'. It's rose gold and I love it, it's so classy. I wore it at my birthday meal so I loved it. Thank you so much.

The next few items I got was was these two cute me to you bears with 16 on them. I got one from my Mum and one from my Nan. They are really cute and I will display them on my shelf. The next one is a DVD from my Mum. It's called 'Paper Towns' I previously read the book by John Green and absolutely loved it, I couldn't put it down. So it's great now I have the chance to watch the film. I will report back to you on what I thought about it.

This cute Zoella make up bag was from Lydia. I love this bag and I've been admiring it for ages, I never got it myself because I already have the Zoella Guinea pig bag in the same style. So when I received this on my birthday I was so happy. I can't wait to use it. I think I will use it for make up brushes or maybe a weekend make up bag, so I can condense my make up down for travelling. 

The next birthday gift I received is this beautiful Ted Baker purse from my Mum. I've always wanted a designer purse, so I was very happy when I got this. I had previously picked it out in the Ted Baker store. I picked this one because it has a rose gold zip and gorgeous black and white detailing inside. It's also nice and big which I prefer in a purse. Thank you Mum I love it. 

This was a lovely present. You all know how much I love bath products. So when I opened this I was estatic. I received this lovely gift from my Auntie, Uncle and cousins. I will be sure to use these in the future. I'm really excited to use the flower bath bomb. I can't also wait to do a review on the moisturiser. This box is called the festival box which is so cool. They smell really nice and are making my bedroom smell like heaven. 

Thank you for reading my blog post, I hope you enjoyed it. Thank you to everyone who got me beautiful gifts !! I got a few more but I wanted to feature these on my blog post and keep the others for another blog post !! I also got some birthday money which I purchased a new pair of Ted Baker sunglasses which I'm super excited to wear them in the summer. Thanks again for reading !!
