Mac Viva Glam Nicki Minaj lipstick ox

A few weeks ago I won a MAC lipstick on a wonderful blog called Some sparkle and shine and you can see Sarahs blog HERE! and the MAC website HERE! 

Ive wanted this lipstick as soon as it came out as ive never tried a MAC lipstick and this is just my colour! Im so greatful to have won this! 

It came in a great big box for some strange reason lol! And inside that box was this smaller box which has a gorgeously wrapped ribbon and little note from Sarah! I was so excited to open the box...

I love the packaging of MACs products and the actual lipstick is gorgeous! I love the colour of it even if its a bit summery for the now chilly weather but oh well, I adore it.

It was so lovely to have a little note in there, such a nice suprise with such an amazing gift! Thank you again Sarah! xx

Bags bling and beautiful things! ox

Last month I won a personalised bag from bags bling and beautiful things and this week it finally came! Im so happy with it, its gorgeous! Im really pleased with the bag as I chose everything on it so luckily it looks really good :)
You can see their twitter HERE! website HERE! and Facebook HERE! 

I love the little bows on it theyre so cute! I chose to have barbie girl because Id find it weird to have my name on it as everyone in the street would know my name! Weird right?! I like to be different :)

I love the cocktail glass! The eyelashes are so pretty too, bigger the better!

Inside the bag is waterproof so if anything gets spilled it can easily be wiped!

Wish lists ox

Ive been meaning to do a wish list for ages as there are just tons of things I need to buy at the moment! Theres also quite alot of make up I need but I will do another wish list for that :)

First up, very VERY high on my wishlist at the moment is a pair of Jeffrey Campbells. I just cannot afford them at the moment though :( These are my favourite pairs at the moment, I have tried all of these on in Office apart from the Litas in the top left and they are all so comfy, especially the wedges. These prices are off the Office website which you can see HERE! and the Jeffrey Campbell site HERE!

I love Daisy Street, ive not long discovered their site and have been so skint lately so I havent managed to purchase any of the things I want from their site. But these are the main things I love on their site. I actually would love all of their shoes but these 2 pairs are gorgeous. At the moment I love things with skulls, crosses and peace signs on so these tops are gorgeous and I love the skirt! You can see Daisy Streets site HERE!

I have to say I really love Simmi shoes, they have such a range of shoes and I love all 4 pairs of these. As I said im skint at the moment but all of these are really affordable considering how gorgeous the shoes are. You can see Simmi shoes' site HERE!

My hair never really gets the attention it needs, I always just wear it straight because I have never been able to curl my hair with my GHD's and my friend does it so well for me but shes not here 24-7 so I dont bother! Im so fed up of wearing it straight and have wanted some Sleep Rollers for ages. They are LOVED my hundreds of girls and celebs including Katie Price and Amy Childs! Also I want to get one of their bun rings and plait to go around it as ive always been crap at doing buns! You can see their site HERE! I love Aussie so so much I think all their products are fab! Ive been running love on Aussie for ages and im down to about half a bottle of shampoo, I normally have 1 shampoo, 1 conditioner and 1 three minute miracle! All Aussie products are 3 for £10 at Boots right now which is a bargain! I will be topping up on Aussie very soon, the Boots page with Aussie products is HERE!

These are my 2 favourite jewellery websites at the moment (Chelsea doll also sells other accessories) and im always looking for updates on their new pieces on twitter and lusting on their sites. I won a peace sign necklace on GoGo Phillips twitter not long ago and you can see that post HERE! and since I received it I have fell in love with it and their other jewellery, you can see their site HERE!. Ive entered a few Chelsea Doll competitions and have never been luck enough to win but hopefully will get round to buying some pieces off them when I have the cash. You can see their site HERE!

Ebay jewellery ox

This post is just to kind of show why I love Ebay so much! Many people who dont buy off Ebay just presume that its full of old used tat and dont realise that many business' and companies sell on there so alot of the stuff is brand spanking new! 

I love jewellery and have probably way to much but this ear cuff was only £1.24! However it did come all the way from Hong Kong (most of the jewellery on there is) so I had to wait about 2 weeks but I wasnt in a rush for it anyway. the postage is free too so I dont understand how they make much profit selling it so cheap with free postage but hey ho im not complaining!

Its the longest ear cuff ive ever saw! It comes right down past my neck. For anyone that doesnt know you just pop the top round part behind your ear and is sits there safely for hours! HERE! is a link some ear cuffs including this one.

Ebay is a fantastic place to find cheap pieces like this. I always look for jewellery with skulls, crosses, peach signs etc on there and its just so cheap, I love it!

Make-up forever aqua rouge ox

The other day I received a prize from a blog giveaway! I cannot find the blogger on twitter or blogger anywhere so I cant give you here blog but I will try and track her down! I have found her! Aimee runs D beauty junkie blog which you can see HERE!

I was excited to try this as its from the US and I think the only store you can buy it from is in London other than online. You can see Make up forevers website HERE! and their Facebook HERE!

As soon as I opened the package I had to try it straight away. As I hadnt heard of this company before I wasnt sure what so meant to be so special about the product as I know girls and bloggers in the US are loving this and the other shades it comes in. However I now know why its so loved! It stays on so so well and I CANNOT wait to try it on my next night out because its just a little miracle...

You get one end which is the red and the other which is like a top gloss coat which id say its optional. The red part covers really well and one coat is plenty. Its important that you get it within the lines of your lips because you have to correct it quickly before it dries otherwise its hard to get off as its like paint! The lip gloss just gives it a nice shine but I like the look of it without that because it just looks like a lipstick.

So this is what it looks like! It was still a bit wet when I took the photo but you can see how its drying in the top right corner. I love how red it is, the colours gorgeous! 

I kissed my hand about 5 times and tried to smudge it and this is all that came off...

I even give my lips a wipe with a make up wipe after and you can see from the photo that its practically all still! I realise theres a few patches where its come off but I just wanted to show how wear and tear this would be on a night out! You wouldnt have to apply it again all night.

Im really happy with this and its exceeded every expectation that I had! I want to get my hand on some other shades because I love this so much its an amazing product.

Bekl bracelets ox

This is another post ive been meaning to do for a while! A while ago I won this personalised bracelet from Bekl bracelets and you can see Bekls twitter HERE! and the website is HERE!

You can choose your own quote to go on the bracelet or they will add one of their chosen quotes. This bracelet was already made before I won it which is why I wanted to win it so much Iove this quote by Elizabeth Taylor! 

Its great because you can tie it around anything! Use it round our wrist, a handbag strap, key ring or even pin it on your wall. 

I love how different this bracelet is, its such a good idea because they would make great gifts to friends or family. Bekl also have other types of jewellery which is gorgeous so id love you to check it out and follow them on twitter! 

Girls with attitude eyelashes ox

I have to say I have been meaning to blog about these eyelashes for nearly a month but I wanted to get a good experience of the lashes first. I won 3 pair of Girls with attitude eyelashes over on Your Coffee Breaks facebook page which you can see HERE! and I love eyelashes, I wear them alot!  You can see a post on the eyelashes I normally wear HERE! and I wear these when I go out because they are thicker but I have been wearing the Girls with attitude ones in the day because for me theyre much faster to put on them doing mascara and my eyelashes are pretty short!

Girls with attitudes twitter is HERE! and HERE! is their website! They do many manyyyy different eyelashes and are £5-£6 with special shaped ones and EXTRA long ones priced at a bit more. They have 25% off when you spend over £10 at the moment AND free delivery which is amazing!

So these are the lashes I got, I received 2 pairs of the glamour ones so didnt bother taking a photo of 2 boxes! I have been wearing these ones for weeks and week almost everyday and the glue still has alot of uses left as do the eyelashes! I just peel the glue off and theyre like new again. (I always add mascara when my eyelashes are on just to make them a tad thicker)

I also received 1 pair of these shorties, they are a bit thinner than the eyelashes id normally wear but I plan to add lots of mascara to them when I use these :)

My favourite eyelash glue has always been Eyelure as its easy to apply and last all day but the glue with these lashes are amazing! You dont have to wait for the glue to dry too much as with some glue which is good as im always in a rush. I seriously recommend these eyelashes theres nothing bad about them for me to say! I cant wait to buy some of their thick lashes!

Passion for fashion ox

I saw another blogger design outfits for this competition so I had to enter! I love styling outfits as you probably know from the amount of competitions like this I enter. Basically what you have to do is put together 5 outfits for these occasions: party, casual, outdoor, first date and office wear. They all have to be under £200 each and can be from any online website.  It is being ran by Moneysupermarket.com and judged by 5 ladies. One for each occasion of outfits!

 Go HERE! to get more details on the competition and how to enter.

So here are my looks and feel free to leave any comments! The websites for the clothes, bags, shoes and jewellery I chose are at the bottom of the post.

My cheapest outfit was Outdoor and most expensive was Party.

Outdoor

Jumper- Love Lila £29.99

Disco pants- Funky Diva £12.99

Bag- Boohoo £20

Boots- Boohoo £35

Spike bracelet- Adorning Ava £8

Ring- Gogo Philip £7

Earrings- Gogo Philip £11

Total: £123.98

Okay so my reason behind the items in this outfit are, its an outdoor look so the boots are great for warmth and comfort but still fashionable, the jumpers lovely and cosy but still stylish and the bag it gorgeous but also fits in with the stud theme running through the outfit. The jewellery is all beautiful and the disco pants are bang on trend! I think this is a great price for all these items as the boots are an investment piece that im sure would last 2 years of autumn/winter seasons at least! 

Skulls, spikes and studs are all in at the moment and look great together.

Party

Dress- Lipsy £130

Shoes- Simmi Shoes £40

Bag- New Look £12.99

Ring- Forever 21 £3.90

Arm cuff- Chelsea doll £12

Total: £198.89 (Phew nearly went over £200!)

I absolutely love this dress and even though its over half the £200 budget it is the main part of the outfit so it just had to be chose as soon as I spotted it on Nexts website!  It really is amazing. The shoes are stunning, Simmi shoes have many gorgeous shoes but these are beautiful and I think the bag matches well. Also the arm cuffs very quirky and the ring would look great with the dress. I went for a more formal party look rather than a club party look as I thought it would be different to what other people have chose. The dress is expensive for my high street loving self but you have to invest in a nice expensive piece every so often!

Office wear

Peplum top- Love Lila £24.99

Pencil skirt- Asos £14

Bag- Boohoo £30

Shoes- Next £65

Braclet- Adorning Ava £6

Total: £139.99

This is a really girly, pretty office look. I think red lipstick and nails would just complete the look. I love these shoes from Next as there are many designer shoe styles very similar being spotted on celebs lately and these are a fab alternative. Also the peplum top is gorgeous and right on trend. I kept the jewellery simple as the outfits stunning enough!

Casual

Leather jacket- Missguided £49.99

Skater dress- Missguided £25

Converse- Office £42.99

Bag- Love Lila £42.99

Double Finger ring- Chelsea doll £9

Total: £169.97

I adore the look of converse and skater dresses with leather jackets because even though its casual its still really pretty and stylish.  I love this bag, it comes with a strap so could be worn over the shoulder rather than being held. I think this outfit would look so gorgeous on and even though most the items are quite expensive compared to the other outfits but the converse and leather jacket would last for ages and can be worn with anything so they are worth it! And the bag is gorgeous.

First Date

Shirt- Love Lila £22.99

Jeans- River Island £20 

Boots- Simmi Shoes £38

Bag- Dorothy Perkins £29.50

Earrings- Gogo Philip £25

Arrow rings- Gogo Philip £8

Total: £143. 49

I didnt know quite what look to go for on this one because a first date could be a movie, meal, walk in the park or even just a casual coffee but I went for a look that is casual yet pretty enough for all of these. Even though ive chosen heels, theyre chunky and not too high so would still be comfy enough to walk around in, last thing you want is 5-6inch heels on a date because if you fall you will never get over it! But the shirt gives a nice formal look that would still look dressy enough for a nice posh meal!

I love this shirt is looks so designer with the skull collar chain.

Max Factor FACEFINITY foundation ox

I was really shocked when I opened this parcel yesterday. I had applied to try Max Factors brand new foundation before it hits the stores and only the first 100 people got to receive a bottle. I completely forgot about it and if I had never of received it I wouldnt of give it a second thought but I was so pleased I applied now as I was running out of foundation and wanted to invest in a good one but this has saved me time and money! Im sure its going to be around the £10 mark if not more once available in shops really soon. However I tried a bit on my cheek last night and it covers really well, the colour matches my skin really well too so it'll be worth the money.

The foundation is 3 in 1 as it works as a Primer to hold, Concealer to correct and Foundation to finish.

It covers really well and seems to me to be a really good foundation! I will update after a few weeks to let you know if its still as good as it seems. Hopefully I wont break out in spots!
