Leave a comment

Hey Dolls,

This week I’m going to take you through getting ready for a family friend’s wedding from hair to shoes, lets go!

First up was hair, me being me no way was I having the stress of doing it myself so the lovely stylist Maria came to my rescue! I went for a up do with on trend braiding and a few loose pieces.

Usually for an event I would have my makeup done professionally, but unfortunately my usual artist was already fully booked (she’s fab so I understand why!) so it was down to me!

As I was wearing a pink and cream outfit I wanted the makeup to compliment it so decided for a pink/champagne eye with a pink gloss (easier maintance). I started with eyes and to achieve the look I wanted had to use an array of shadows and some blushes! Here’s the shadow list not in order: Makeup Geek – peach smoothie, whimsical, MG Blush- head over heels, romance, Too Faced- Strawberry Bon Bon, Tartelette- caregiver, wanderer, Bobbi Brown blush in 41. For glitter I used Too faced glitter glue as a base with Barry M snowglobe. Liner was brown as softer and L’Oréal infallible finishing with Eyelure Luxe Lashes in Trinket!

On my brows I used Benefit precisely brow in shade 3, ABH clear brow gel and the light shade in sleek contour palette to carve out.

For base I used my trusty old faves! Primer- Too faced hangover, Foundation- Chanel perfection lumiere velvet(50), Concealer- Nars creamy in custard and vanilla, Bake- Laura Mercier loose powder, Powder- Rimmel stay Matte, Contour- NYX powder kit, Bronzer- Nars Laguna, Blush- Makeup Geek Romance, Highlight- ABH x Nicole palette Kitty Kat and day dream, Setting spray- Urban Decay all nighter!

Onto lips: Liner- Charlotte Tilbury pink Venus, NYX butter gloss in vanilla cream pie!

Nails- The Beauty Yard (all about nails blog coming soon!)

Leave a comment

Hey Dolls,

Last week I took a trip to Bluewater and found some great items in the sale, take a look at what I found!

First up Zara, I prefer buying things from Zara in the sale as the majority of their stock eventually goes into sale so here’s what I got: This lovely grey light weight knit dress with a ruffle on the sleeve (£12.99), Cream Blazer with split sleeves (£19.99) and a rusty orange asymmetric dress (£17.99)

Bluewater now holds the 2md Misguided store and I was super excited to see what was inside, I wasn’t disappointed! I found a lovely white loose fitting top with a ruffle neck line (£10.50), a pair of ruffle trousers in my favourite mint green (£12.50) and a necklace for the bargain price of (£3.50)

In need of some new gym wear I decided to see what House of Fraser had to offer (after browsing the whole store, I love HoF!) I found some hidden gems. First up a grey longline Calvin Klein vest (£17), to match the top I also got a pair of grey crop leggings with Tiffany blue accents from label lab (£12). Then onto the blue outfit, the top is from Biba and has a split open back (£12) but my biggest bargain of the day was the bottoms which I got from Victoria’s Secret, these blue knockout capris were reduced from £60 to £13.50!!!!

My final item was one I ordered from ASOS, these baby pink wedges to wear to a wedding I am going to later this month, they are super comfy (I had to wear them in) and match perfectly with my dress (summer wedding guest GRWM coming soon!) and they were reduced to £25.

Some sales are still on so go and see if you can bag a bargain!
