After a trip to London fell through last weekend, I decided to continue with the plan to visit Space NK and to finally purchase some items that had been on my "wish list" for a long a very long time. So instead of going to London, I found myself face to face with the store in Cheltenham. I haven't a clue how I hadn't stepped in to...
When searching through the ol' varnish boxes last Sunday, I was being drawn to the nudes and decided to give a recent addition to my collection a go. ...
Seriously, Birchbox is brilliant. End of. I've been receiving these since earlier in the year and every month they offer up an incredible box, which is usually full to the brim with awesome products. There is only the occasional disappointment but that tends to happen because of personal taste in colour. Surprise, surprise; November's box was no different. ...
The more I am getting in to the beauty world, the more I'm realising that specific seasons call for specific colours and for me, Autumn = berry and burgundy items. This year, I've been becoming more and more comfortable with shades that I would never have been before - great for self-confidence boosting, not so great for my bank when I'm buying new...
Today brings the fifth and final Love Me Beauty box review to this blog. I liked this month's addition but I'll come on to why it's the final one after I've shown you what I received. ...
Over the past few months, I have been trying to get my hair back its former glory and in order to do so, I have been changing the whole hair-care routine, including washing my locks every other day. This is all good and well, except for the fact that my hair gets greasy rather quickly and by the second day, it feels and...
After a few weeks of picking out the deep purples - now I have 'Smoke On The Water' stuck in my head... - and dark reds from my nail varnish stash, I decided to go for something a bit brighter this week. Enter: Lollipops Voyage à Paris. ...
It's tag time again and it's all about the lips. ...
This post is a little late, three weeks late in fact - oops, sorry! I am not wearing it anymore, therefore can't class it as a 'Nails of the Week' and as I don't know when I'll be wearing it again (I have so many polishes to try over the next couple of months), I thought I'd make a post especially for 'Vintage...
With the view to better my blog and be more organised, I have made the decision to start uploading my 'Nails of the Week' posts on a Sunday, instead of Wednesday. These posts are easier to write but I feel I should be doing them at the end of the week instead of the middle, to give a proper full-week review of them....
Do you ever pop in to a shop, intending to get one or two items and end up coming out with about ten instead? Yes, I'll hold my hands up and say that this happened to me the other weekend and seeing as I picked up a few nice items, I thought I'd share the aftermath of my shopping trip with you. ...
Albeit I call myself a beautaholic, I find that I don't actually experiment very often. Don’t smite me down for not doing so, I just find products I like and stick to them. I guess you could say I'm a creature of habit. But after wanting to branch out more on the stuff I'm used to, I decided to do some research over...
Above are some of my Instagram pics from the past few weeks with descriptions just below. ...
This October's 'Favourites' post is going to be a little different as I am going to combine it with details of my outfit, makeup and nails from a Masquerade Ball I went to last week. ...
I am a lover of sleep and not so much of having to get up early most days, so it'll be no surprise when I say I try to spend as long as is physically possible in the comfy confines of my bed. Why do beds always have to feel so nice in the morning, it's almost impossible to drag myself from it...
October; the month of Halloween. But instead of celebrating the traditional way - fancy dress, partying and all that jazz - a few of my friends and I headed over to Ragley Hall for the Bonfire & Firework Extravaganza. ...
As Halloween comes around, horror films start cropping up in cinemas and anyone who enjoys a scary film will know that the cinema-experience is more frightening and better much better than watching at home. As soon as it came to light that there was going to be a spin-off prequel to 'The Conjuring', I knew it'd be one to see in the cinema. 'The...
Do you know what I enjoy most about blogging, besides getting to ramble to my heart's content over various topics? The wonderful community that it creates. I love reading lots of different posts from bloggers all over the world and I value their thoughts and opinions. I appreciate the time they took to write their post and the effort put in to it....
OK, so I know I've been a naughty blogger recently but sometimes life just gets...in the way, doesn't it? The last couple of months have been a mix of ups and downs and time seems to have constantly run away from me. But I am starting November with better organisation and high hopes. Let's begin with a post that should have gone up...
