Saying No is OK! *Serious Topic*

Hello my lovelies,
I hope this topic is OK to cover I just really felt like I could help one of you (or maybe two). A little disclaimer I'm not a specialist I'm talking from my experience. I just want to let you guys now that you are important so if someone does something YOU DO NOT LIKE you can SAY NO.
I would just like to start by letting you know what I mean by someone doing something you do not like:
1. If they hold your hand
2. If they hug you for a length of time
3. If they try to be alone with you and you don't want to be alone with them.
4. If they try it on with you!
5. Anything that makes you for 1 second not want to be in that situation/ feel uncomfortable.
Honestly this could be anything but I really honestly believe that if you do not like that situation you can get out of it it is your right. Here are some things that are OK to do if you want out of that situation:
1. Be rude!
2. Tell them to get off
3. Tell them no
4. Do not be alone with them (as much as possible)
5. PUT YOURSELF FIRST!
I also think that if you even like this person in a friend way or if you're crushing on them or if they're your boy/girlfriend, they still have no right to be treating you like this. If they're a good friend for you to have they won't want to make you feel uncomfortable and will most likely apologise, if not stuff them they are not worth you.
If you think you have done something to deserve to be treated this way:
1. YOU DON'T
2. YOU'RE WORTHY OF MORE
3. YOU'RE IMPORTANT
4. I think you're amazing and if someone ever makes you feel like you're not worth something then that someone is not a good person to have in your life.
5. Please make sure you have people you can talk to if you feel uncomfortable in any situation.

I hope this has helped in some way. If you ever need to vent anything my ask box is open (on tumblr or email me I will try my best to reply). However if you need any other more educated advice ring childline on 0800 1111 they will help you by just listening and trying to give you practical advice.
I hope this helps you.
You have so much worth.
You are important!
Much love <3

My Favourite Make Up Brand

Hello my lovelies,
I'm sorry this post is a bit late I have no excuse I feel like the worst person... (*shame on myself*)
Anyway I am going to have another post aswell! So please forgive me!
This post is about my favourite makeup brand! This is a drugstore brand because I feel that way everyone and anyone can purchase it.
My favourite make-up brand has got to be Rimmel! I thought of five points (to limit myself) about why I love them:
1. The quality of their products is FAB
2. The pricing is fair and is very affordable
3. The products themself are really lovely and very cute
4. I really love the names of some of their products (they don't name them all)
5. They sell Kate Moss lipsticks! (this is the only point that matters really!)

I really think that Rimmel products are amazing and one of the best drugstore brands out there!

I hope you enjoyed this post. Let me know what your favourite brand is.
I hope you're having a fabulous week because you all deserve it!
Much love <3

My Current Music Favourites

Hello my lovelies,
I hope you don't mind this post as it's not when I normally post but I think it would be nice if I posted twice a week as much as I can. I thought it would be nice to tell you about my music favourites this week as my week is very music related this week! I have a few singles I love and a couple of albums so I will let you know them all and try and link them for you!

1. Youth - Foxes: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sx0x5aRPhgk



2. Another Love - Tom Odell: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MwpMEbgC7DA

3. Kings of Leon - Come Around Sundown (the album):
especially Radioactive: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPBbMbKSZrQ

4. Lorde - Pure Heroine (the album)

5. Chocolate- The 1975: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfBKqaVk2Co

Something I'm planning on doing is putting a load of songs I've bought onto a CD so I can play them all wherever even if I don't have an AUX or way to play them off my phone, like a mix CD!
I hope you're all having a FAB week and let me know of your music favourites so far!
Much love <3

My Favourite Shop!

Hello my lovelies,
Today I'm going to tell you about my favourite shop and why it is my favourite shop. This is another post related to the british blogger selection so I hope you enjoy!
Firstly I want you to know that picking a favourite shop is possibly the hardest thing you could ever ask me to do there are so many shops that I love like H&M or Asos or Topshop there are too many but I decided to go with a shop where I love everything they sell and where there is always something that I love and that is very cliche to. My absolute favourite shop is Urban Outfitters. I am soo soo happy that one has opened near me I'll probably end up living in there. I love the clothes in urban outfitters even though they are a bit pricey but the main thing I love is the homeware section I always browse it and always find little things that I love and add to my wishlist (yes I actually have a wishlist for Urban Outfitters Homeware). The only bad thing about Urban Outfitters is that some of their items are a bit expensive.
I think it is the perfect shop to find a gift for someone or if you are re-doing your bedroom or if you've moved house or something along those lines, there is something in there that is bound to be able to make your space your own!
I think you all know about Urban Outfitters but if you haven't (where have you been?!) here is the link to their website: http://www.urbanoutfitters.co.uk/
Also just a quick mention I would love it if you could go check out this short film made by Bertie Gilbert he is 16 and I think this is a really cool short film and I hope you enjoy it to! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1bf6ebZszcM
Thankyou for reading this lovelies and if you check out his video thanks for supporting him!
I hope you're having a fabulous week
Much love <3

About Me

Hello my lovelies, 
So as you probably know I decided to become part of the British blogger selection recently and this is the first post I am going to do in relation to that (If you want to know more about it I did a post on it before)
Anyway here are the questions:

Question No1: Why do you like blogging?
I guess I like that I can meet new people through it and I love reading about what people like and dislike (I'm super nosy) and I guess blogging is the first thing I've done where I don't care what people think of my blog or if they think it's lame because I enjoy it.

Question No2: How did you come up with your blog name? 
This is really lame but it is just a literal name at school quite a few of my teachers would refer to me as miss Birch rather than Sacha so at first I was going to have that but I thought it needed something else and I am really tiny like 5ft (don't laugh) so I decided to be little miss birch.

Question No3: Where from the UK do you come from? 
I come from Nottingham it's in the midlands and I am literally right inbetween Derby and Nottingham but I like Nottingham better so I say I'm from Nottingham.

Question No4: Favourite Colour?
My favourite colour is probably white. It's so boring but I love how clean and fresh it makes me feel (I would've said black but it's a tone not a colour) 

Question No5: Do you like Lana Del Ray? 
Do humans breathe air? (YES)

Question No6: Any hidden talents?
I play piano, guitar, a little bit of trumpet (but I haven't played in ages) and I sing a little bit. 

Question No7: Celebrity Crush?
This is kinda lame but Connor Ball from The Vamps. (He's lovely)

Question No8: Favourite blog of all time
Sammi- The Beauty Crush www.beautycrush.co.uk

Question No9: What made you want to join the British Bloggers Selection?
I haven't been blogging too long and I want to find more blogs to read I thought this would be a fab way to find new blogs. I just thought the idea was great!

I hope you're all having a FAB week! 
Much love <3

If you want to get involved just email her at littlevintagecamera@gmail.com with your blog URL, blog name and your first and last name! This is such a  good opportunity to get to know other bloggers.
