Today marks the start of a new back to basics Beauty Series I’ll be filming and posting about. I’m really excited about this, as it’s been a while since I posted about beauty related stuff!

Here are my favourite Eye Liners… ~ L’Oreal Superliner ~ ~ Maybelline Line Definer ~ ~ Maybelline Gel Liner ~ ~ MAC Fluidline, Blacktrack ~ In the Tutorial, I show you how to achieve three of… Read More »

Yeti

November 21 2011

The amount of laughs this (Yeti) Coat has brought me this weekend! It’s one of those pieces you either love or hate, but I happen to love it! I normally go for (and still very much love) the classic trench for the winter, but I felt like switching it up a bit! I like how different it is, and oh my, does it keep me warm!  The girls loved it so much (TwitPic!), even Lexi went ahead and got herself one! I mean it is a real steal at £34.99 if you ask me!! I thought to add a bit… Read More »

Now or Never

November 9 2011

The past few days have been so relaxing. I’ve had total me time, I’ve enjoyed waking up feeling good and not in a rush to go anywhere or do anything…just be. I’ve had quite a few personal issues to deal with (fear not, nothing to be overly worried about), and I was just feeling a little down and I was advised by a friend to just take a break from everything. I did, and it has been worth it. I managed to clean out my whole apartment (that’s therapeutic in itself!), go shopping and spend time just reflecting on life.… Read More »

My Everyday Face

BEAUTY
October 25 2011

I’ve had requests (many times) to do an updated version of My Everyday Face. So here it is! It should also help those who were wondering about what makeup I used in my last few outfit posts!  I also get asked a lot about my eyebrows and how I keep them groomed, well the answer really is simple: I visit a professional “Threadist” once every two weeks to get them threaded and shaped! You can look up Brow Bars, or Beauty Shops that offer this service in your area! Prices of threading do vary, depending on area and service! Hope… Read More »

Black on Black

October 15 2011

Black is just THAT colour. It’s classic and timeless. I like the ease of slipping on an ‘all black’ outfit, because I know no matter what, it would look flattering. You can say this one was somewhat ‘ballerina’ inspired. I remember when I was little (and I’m sure most other girls out there can relate…) I used to wish I was one!  I shot these using the black and white filter on my camera, and being such a lover of black and white photos, i’m quite pleased with how these came out.

There’s just something about this type of accessory that I Love. I’ve mentioned this before in the past, but I’m drawn to simple but unique looking jewellery, that still manages to make a statement. The necklace (£7.99) and bracelet (£3.99) are both by H&M. I’m wearing them today! 🙂 ~~~ BLOGLOVIN’ // YOUTUBE // TWITTER // LOOKBOOK // TUMBLR

Love you all! :’) xoxo ~~~ As a friend of mine rightly puts it, good weather in Britain comes as often as a Solar Eclipse. Haha, so true! It’s been beautiful these past few days, and I’ve loved every second of it. I’d had a stressful week last week, and the good weather really put my mind at ease. Amazing what a little sun can do, eh? It has also… Read More »

Beauty Bits & Bobs

BEAUTY, SHOPPING
September 20 2011

It’s been a while since I had a beauty binge. I convinced myself earlier this summer that I had way too much makeup and beauty products, and it would be criminal to spend any more money on bits I really didn’t need.  It wasn’t until I decided to do a clearout and got rid of so much stuff, that I realised my beauty and makeup drawers felt naked. Lol! So I compiled a wishlist of things I needed and wanted (we all know there’s a difference between the two) and I’ve made allowance every now and again to buy things off… Read More »
