February 9 2010

Anyone who knows me, knows i’m a very huge fan of Victoria Beckham. Her amazing sense of style is what I love about her. I’ve also been watching the audition episodes of American Idol, and I absolutley love the way she comes across. She is fun and down to earth, oh and extremely fashionable! Aimlessly searching the web I came across two very lovely photographs, which I used as inspiration for my Make-up and Fashion Look today!  They’re from the March 2010 Issue of Glamour Magazine (US)…have a peek at the rest of the photos from the shoot HERE! 🙂… Read More »

Diamonds are a girls best friend.

December 31 2009

One of my favourite bloggers Zoe recently hit the 2000 follower mark. Congratulations girlie! 😀 To celebrate she is having a Diamond themed contest and this is my entry for it. I find diamonds to be very glamourous and when I think of them , I think Sparkly and girly, so I created this look based on that. Make-up Breakdown Eyes I primed my eyes with Too Face Shadow Insurance as usual. I then followed by basing the lid with a greyish/black shadestick (MACs Sharksin). Using a flat shading brush, a matte purple eyeshadow (MACs Shadow lady) was applied all… Read More »

I get a lot of requests from my subscribers and readers to do hair tutorials of hair styles i’ve worn in previous videos, so i decided to do it.Most of them can be achieved by everyone, but some may be for people with mid-length to long hair. Just test them out, see what works for you. I will be doing more videos like these as I found it quite fun and easy to do! Here’s the first part… I hope this is helpful to some of you! …xx

MakeUp Look – Sleek Sunset Palette Look

BEAUTY
December 26 2009

I was inspired by Rai’s gorgeous Holiday Inspired Look and so I wanted to re-create it using products I have. (…but honestly, i would love to get my hands on some Nyx! lol.) I used my sleek sunset palette to do just that. 😀 The gold from the pallette was swept across the lid and the cranberry red was blended into the crease. My upper eye-lid was lined with a black liquid liner and using a black kohl pencil, i lined and tight-lined my eyes, popped some falsies (£land falsies!) to finish off the look. I’m so happy with the… Read More »

Here’s what I wore today! It’s a simple outfit for a day out, shopping, cinema or meeting friends! I relaxed my hair on Tuesday and I love the way my stylist blow dried it, it left my hair looking ever soo sleek and lovely! ^.^ My make-up was kept on the neutral side…a pop of MAC Amber lights on the lid with some Tempting and Carbon for definition of the outer corners. I curled my lashes and applied Maybelline’s Colossal and lined/tight-lined my eyes with a black kohl pencil by Gosh. Just for fun i put on falsies! 🙂 I… Read More »

Life
December 12 2009

My little brother Nathaniel was so excited on the phone today. Apparently he spent the day decorating the house with Kezia my sister and that’s what made him so giddy. He told me about all the things he had in mind to get for the whole family for Christmas. For me, he would get loads of MAC make-up “…so that you can put on your blog Shirley.” For my other siblings he would get iMACs “…they complain tooo much about their laptops Shirley.” he says. For my mummy and daddy he said he would take them to M&S and buy… Read More »

MakeUp Tutorial – Rihanna Inspired.

BEAUTY
December 8 2009

Ever since I saw her rocking this eye makeup look (Bright eye liner or Shadow on the lower lash line) i’d wanted to try it out. I think it’s a cool way of doing your eye-makeup and it doesn’t require any special skill whatsoever! Here she is with a blueey green. Here she took it to another level with the hot pink. The red here is a lot edgier but still elegant. In all the photo’s i’ve come across of her, she usually has a nude or soft orangey-gold eye lid and a very thin line of black liquid liner.… Read More »
