Aztec OOTD


Hello loves!
I recently went away for a girls weekend which was a lot of fun, it consisted of a few fun nights out so, I thought I would share one of the outfits I really enjoyed wearing out.



Its not the clearest of pictures because it was taken on my phone but I thought I would share it anyway. 
For nights out I normally opt for either skirts or dresses but as the weather was horrible and rainy I thought I would throw on some light washed jeans and this fun little aztec crop top I got from New look. 

What I wore:
Crop top: New Look
Jeans: New Look
Shoes: Matalan
Necklace: NinaCha (my own design)

Don’t you just love the crop tops New Look have out for the summer season!

I hope your all wel

A little person turned 2!


Hello loves!!
So, as some of you may have noticed, i have been a little absent recently.
 I wasn't feeling like myself so i decided to take a break and get myself together again. I am now feeling much better and will resume normal blogging from now on. 
In my time away I decided to spend alot of it with family, they always cheer me up and my little brother and sister were back from uni for the Easter holidays so it was perfect timing.We got to spend alot of time together which was nice and also in this time the littlest member of our family (my niece) turned 2! 
We missed her actual birthday as we live far from where my older sister now lives so, as we were apart on the day my sister decided to plan a day out so we could still celebrate together as a family. 
With this we spent the day at twin lakes, which is a theme and adventure park just outside of Leicester.
There are alot of different activities to do there for children and adults. You can see all sorts of animals, farm animals and wild birds. There are rides and a big play area with slides and ball pools: a little one for really tiny people and one for the older children where we spent most of the day running around. It was so much fun!I think it reminded us all of when we were little again.
We all love spending time together and making new memories as a family. 
I really enjoyed myself so i thought i would share a few of the pictures I took on the day: 

When we first walked in there were peacocks roaming around!

Cute little bunnies!

Me in front of the goat houses- i thought this was so cute!



Inside the mirror maze, it was so confusing we got lost!

That's my older sister to scared to go down the slide!

I know this isnt a beauty or fashion related post but i thought it would be a nice change before i start blogging about products and clothes again. 
Hope your all well

All black...


Hello loves!!
I hope your all well and enjoying the Snow/Rain/ Spring weather?! 
I'm actually feeling a little ill. I woke up with a banging headache and the sudden urge to puke up this morning, which has never happened before so I’m hoping it will pass quickly and I will be back to normal soon enough.
We all know black is very in this season and I can happily admit, I’m loving it, so I thought I would share this outfit with you all today which is none other than an 'all black' outfit. 



Crop top: Topshop
Skirt: River Island
Shoes: New Look
Watch: Michael Kors
Necklace and bracelet: NinaCha accessories

As my complete outfit was black I thought I would brighten it up a little with this turquoise spiked necklace, which is actually one of my own designs and some nude shoes, because lets face it nude shoes go with just about any outfit! 
I'm not really one to wear pencil/midi skirts but since seeing how this looks on I’ve really come around to them and am on a search for a patterned one! So, if any of you know where I can find one. Please let me know. 

What do you think of the outfit?

Archies girl FOTD...

Hello loves!!
This week seems to be flying right by but thank goodness for the improving weather, I was getting so fed up of the cold and the dozens of layers I was having to pile on in the morning.Speaking of layers, I actually  have a few outfit posts coming up but for now I have a FOTD!



Todays FOTD was inspired by 'archies girls- veronica to be precise'. Now i know this is a lot different to Veronica's makeup but bare in mind it is an inspired look so, this is my interpretation of it. 
I would normally have a product list to share with you  but as I was unsure to how it would turn out, I didn't write it down. But since I'm so happy with the outcome I thought I would share it with you anyway.
Over all I love the way it looks.The straight shadow in the crease, the eye liner and most of all the colour of the lips- which was a mix of a bright red liner and Diva from MAC (I will definitely be wearing the combination out over the weekend).

What do you think of the overall look and the lip colour?

Revlon - Pink Pout review...




Hello loves!

I’m a big fan of matte lipsticks; I generally just buy MAC matte lipsticks because I know I’m going to get exactly what I want without any disappointments such as dryness. I am now so happy to say I’ve found an alternative to my normal MAC lipsticks and at such a great price.

 


   
My thoughts:
Revlon describes these lipsticks as ‘Ultra-creamy saturated lip colour that delivers beautiful, lightweight matte colour without any dryness, caking or fading’.
I have to say I completely agree with this.  I was at first a bit on the fence of whether to try these or not but decided as Boots had an offer on for Revlon products, I may as well go for it. This particular lipstick is in the shade ‘Pink Pout’. On application the colour pay off is fabulous, it’s a soft pink with a slight bluish undertone to it (a mix between MACs Snob and St.Germain), So pigmented and smooth. I would describe it as an everyday sort of pink, something not too bright but not too boring for an everyday wear.
I wear the lipstick basically all day. So, I apply it first thing in the morning when I put my face on for the day then, I reapply just after I have my lunch which then is left on until 4 to 5pm, it stays on without a problem, I talk A LOT and I mean a lot and even then the colour doesn’t seem to fade.
The problem with many matte lipsticks is that they dry out your lips, this is one of my pet peeves, I really dislike any drying products. But this lipstick does not have that issue, its not drying at all, it keeps my lips moisturised within the time I wear it.

Price: 
 I purchased this for £7.49 from boots, which now when I think about it and compare it to a MAC lipstick, which retails for £14.00 is a bit of a steal. It’s a great alternative especially when it’s going to save you near enough £6.50!  

My overall opinion of this lipstick is that it’s absolutely worth £7.49! The actual colour of the lipstick is lovely, not too over bearing for an everyday sort of pink. It doesn’t contain a scent, which I think is important especially with lipsticks, the packaging is sleek silver and black so when you pull it out of your purse it looks nice and sleek.
I have been so impressed with just how much I enjoy wearing it, on my next trip to Boots I plan to pick up ‘nude attitude and really red’ from the same collection.

Have you tried any of the Revlon Super lustrous lipsticks?

Sleek Blush by 3 'Pumpkin' review...


Hello loves!

After I learnt that sleek had brought out a trio of blushes I knew I had to make a trip to Superdrug and pick one up.There were a few to choose from but i picked one up called 'pumpkin'. 
 Obviously like many of you I absolutely adore sleek so I knew this wouldn’t be any different.

 

   
 


My thoughts:
The colour of the blushes are so beautiful, I especially love ‘lantern’- the bright orange coloured one, this shade is what attracted me to this palette in particular. The palette also has two other shades called; Squash, which is a pink colour and P Pie which is a dark red shade with a shimmer running through it. The blushes are all highly pigmented, I literally have to run my brush through a shade once and that’s enough product for entire application to my cheeks. I actually find that I have to blend it out a lot more then I normally would with other blushes, so I’ll say it again- The blushes are HIGHLY pigmented.
I personally think the idea of having three blushes in one palette is genius, being a makeup artist, its rather handy not having to reach for separate blushes.

The colours are gorgeous. Nothing new there! The shades in this palette are the most perfect shades for spring and summer and I cant wait to wear them all.
I also think ‘p pie’ is going to be the most beautiful blush to use when I do Indian bridal makeup. I can’t wait!

Price:  
£10.00!! Yey for sleek!! Sleeks price points are so forgiving to my purse. Taking into consideration that their single blushes retail for £4.49, I think three separate blushes for £10.00 is just lovely!

I would completely recommend this particular trio of blushes, having three blushes in one place is so handy, I am planning on picking the others up soon enough.

Have you tried out any of the Blush by 3 palettes?

Tutorial using the NAKED 2 palette...

Hello loves!!
I made my very first makeup video! yey! I, like I'm sure many of you, love, the urban decay NAKED 2 palette. As i use it so much i thought I'd use that for my first makeup related video. 


I have enjoyed watching beauty videos on youtube for years now but before i started making my own, not so long ago, i honestly did not think it would take as much time and effort as it does. But, never the less i am enjoying making them so its definitely worth it. So, if you would like to see an eye look using the lovely shadows from the Urban decay naked 2 palette you can check out my video.

I'm off to watch comic relief, Happy Friday everyone!!
