That summer feeling

There was a slight sign of sunshine over the weekend which automatically makes me want to change my eyeshadow colours... Over the winter/spring months i have been wearing a lot of red browns and oranges, now its time to switch back to the cool colours.. 




  On the inner corner i used a pale pink colour which then transitioned into darker pink and then purple ...
using a fanatic blending brush (MAC 217 dupe) to place the darkest purple on the outer corner and swept it slightly inward.. I then used Fanatic's pencil brush to place a matte black on the outer corner to create more intensity 
the eyes were finished off with Fanatic Gel liner and mascara


I am defiantly embracing the season change and i look forward to wearing a lot more pops in my makeup


Face products used

Practising cut crease

When life gets in the way it's easy to let your skills slip and not practise and keep your skills sharp. ..
So I used a combination of red, , pink, purple a little touch of orange it off my fanatic palette, and as always when I'm using white in a look I used sugar pills Tako.
Here is what I came up with
Why not pull out your coloured palettes and give it a go. ..

Is your hair weighing you down.... diy how i cut my hair

My hair had been driving me insane it was hard to manage and style. . So I decided to take the scissors to it.
°•○●¡!¡  please don't do this if u have never cut your own hair  ¡!¡●○•°
What you will need
A comb, hair grips, scissors and thinning scissors.  

with there being a lot of weight in my hair sectioning it of was a must as i have a lot of hair 2 cut through


  



Then i used the ordinary scissors to remove a lot of the split and dead ends all over... After that i went in with the thinning scissors and took out a lot of the bulk in my hair

im really happy with the results



  have a great day

Primark Haul May 2013

With the slight change in season i decided it was time for some new style.
Where better to start than Primark.
Here is what i got 


Primark leather jacket summer2013
BEIGE LEATHER JACKET £25
Leather is big on trend at the minuet so i chose a jacket that would carry me through seasons, i have seen a lot of coloured leather jackets in shops but after the summer would they have to be put away for the rest of the year 

 
BLACK CARDAGIAN £6
Primark have a lovely range of short cardigans you would nearly walk past them as i feel they are directed toward an older client group. I also have versions of these in blue, and striped

SIMPLE BUCKLE SHOES £8
These are another item that you may walk past as they kinda look fuddy duddy (if that's the right term) but paired with skinny jeans i love them
 
CHIFFON VEST TOP £4
This super simple top is so pretty and easy to wear ill add some pics of that later  

BAG ORGANIZER £3
Im Excited about this to say the least, i love anything that can add simplicity to our lives and to be honest my Handbag can be a source of stress for the simple reason i use a lot of Pauls Boutiques bags which are generally massive in size leaving it hard to find what you looking for, so this little gem make a lot of sense to me i like to change up my handbags a lot and the idea of packing my bag with a bag organizer and being able to lift that out and set it into another bag is genius. Ill do a test run with this and keep you posted fingers crossed there will now be a place for everything and everything in its place 


GREEN FOOT WEAR £3 PINK FOOTWEAR £6 

Apologies for the blurred photo but i wanted to throw it in there as mint is the whole seasonal  trend and i love comfort in my footwear so just thought id put it out there



Hope you enjoyed the pics
