Neglect

Bonjour!
I have severly neglected my blog, and for that I am truely sorry!
Let me fill you in ...
I have recently started back at uni, have been on a wonderful trip to Paris and as of late have been feeling rather under the weather! So with being so busy my online attendance has been rather crappy.

Paris was absolutely fantastic! I completely fell in love with the place and it has made me atleast a million times more excited to move there in January! I loved the slower pace of life, beautiful buildings and yummy food, and not to mention seeing my lovely friend Amy (who I am missing dearly).
Spam you with my Paris pictures? I hear you say!
Well if you insist!

This is us at an Eco fashion show :)

Now I am back home, feeling better and in the swing of things with Uni, I will hopefully be better at posting more regularly!
Au revoir mes amis
Until next time

Help!! Ahh

Hi guys :)
     
Just wondering if anyone knows the requirements for someone to be able to buy the MAC Pro only make-up.
I fell in love with MAC Reflects Glitter in Antique Gold, thanks to Tanya Burr's new video, only to find it was pro only!
I need it in my life! haha

Style crushes

Lately I've had four major style crushes! 

Lauren Conrad

Lucy Hale 

Miley Cyrus 

Audrina Patridge 

If only we got some decent weather in Scotland and I could wear pretty clothes without spoiling it with a Jacket!

Superdrug Mini Haul

I seriously should not be allowed into superdrug/boots or anywhere that sells make up or toiletries! I just end up buying so many things I don't need! However i'm rather happy about some of my purchases today ... and not so happy about others.

I've never tried any of the MUA products before but I thought it was about time I did, time to see if they are cheap and cheerful or cheap and nasty. But for a pound each i won't be complaining either way!
From MUA I  got two eyebrow pencils one in blonde and the other in brunette, a gold intense glitter eye liner which i'm very impressed with (channeling my inner greek goddess) and a lipstick in shade 15 called juicy ... It seemed to be a beautiful coral colour but once i applied it, it was very disappointing! It looks very chalky on my lips and does nothing for my complection!

My other purchases were simple quick fix cleansing wipes which are my fav! I honestly feel like they help prevent and attack spots. l'oreal's Lumi magique primer which i haven't tried before, but i love that it's iridescent and almost sparkly, it reminds me of a white version of benefits "that gal". Also a random buy was the Aldia of london hair remover mitt, I've tried a few hair remover mitts before and i love them! They make my skin so soft and at £1.09 who was I to pass up a bargain!

The Promise Collection

I absolutely LOVE ethical/eco/fairtrade fashion! It's the area of fashion i'm aiming to work in and I love what it stands for. I know this is old news as the collection has been out for a while but I urge everyone to look Tommy Hilfiger's "The Promise Collection".
My faves and soon to be purchased are "Carlton Skirt"

and the "Paarl shorts"

Also if anyone knows of any eco-friendly/ fair trade fashion lables let me know, i would love to check them out!

Fashion facts/peeves and questions as told by me!

These are some of my fashion peeves and some questions that I am genuinely curious about! These are my own opinions so technically are not "facts", let me know what you think :)

Fashion facts/ peeves

• An inside out hood makes you look instantly crazy
• Leggings so sheer I can see your pants/underwear = NOOOO
• Big hoop earrings will always be chavy/nedy/trashy (I don't care what Nelly Furtado's new song is haha)
• All track suits/ sports wear should not be worn unless actually doing sports

Fashion questions

• Is it acceptable for kids to wear socks and sandals?
• Could kitten heels ever make a comeback?
• Can blondes wear leopard print? (I'm blonde and find it really difficult to wear leopard print without looking tacky)
• Is it socially acceptable to wear tights under a maxi skirt?

YSL lip stain

STOP WHAT YOU ARE DOING! And head over to  feelunique.com and purchase the YSL glossy lip stain!
I had read a few blog posts about it and heard a couple of youtube gurus rave about it, but to be perfectly honest I wasn't that excited about it. I've had problems with lip stains before and found that they don't wear very well and they tend to be rather drying.
But after trying it last night from a friend who is in love with the product I have came to the informed conclusion that it is fab!


I'ts such a good consistency and feels like lip gloss, but it lasts forever! I put it on around half past ten last night and my lips still felt glossy and colourful at half one in the morning! I love it ! I love it! I love it!
If you don't buy it then it will be a lose to your make-up bag! My fav shade and the one I am just about to purchase is 06. :)
