ONWARDS AND UPWARDS

Really sorry for the lack of posts. Reflecting on October, the month was very hard for me and I just haven't had the inspiration to blog or do anything. Personal situation that I was (probably still am) very upset about. But as drake says, "When a good thing goes bad, it's not the end of the world" (ignoring the next line in the song). Onwards and upwards, here's to a new chapter of my life.

NARS HAUL

No excuses for lack of posts, but I thought I'd share with you some exciting purchases! A few weeks ago I got my a-level results! So as a treat for working hard I decided to just go for it and buy what I've been lusting over for years! I took a trip into town on the hunt to find Space NK and get me some NARS. I bought the Matte Multiple in the shade Altai and the Sheer Glow foundation in Siberia. Whilst in Space NK I was lusting over the blushes but couldn't bring myself to purchase any! 2 days later after much thought I bit the bullet and got NARS' Orgasm and Deep Throat. I really love the packaging of NARS products they just look so sleek and minimal - making any make up bag ooze luxury!

OOTN #1

Hello! So I'm back from Mexico, well actually back 2 weeks ago but you know how it is getting back into routine and everything. I just wanted to share a few outfits from my evenings on holiday!

This is the first which I love so much. I wasn't too keen on the top when I first bought it but with a tan it looks so lovely!

WHATS IN MY HAND LUGGAGE?

You know that panic of deciding what to take with you on holiday? Yep, I have that now. Off to Mexico fairly soon and so ready for some sleeping, eating, swimming and sun time. I've been out bought a few (far too many) new outfits and I've just about decided what I'm taking on the plane with me! I wanted to quickly share what I see as useful in flight items! 

END OF AN ERA

So with my last exam approaching I'm just procrastinating to the full and trying to avoid revision at all costs (this is a very bad idea and strongly suggest you don't)! Revision notes currently fill my table to the brim and seeing others have already finished their exams and started summer really isn't helping! I have enjoyed the past few days with my boyfriend doing cricket related things as #cricketseason is upon us. I apologise for the lack of posts this month, I have no excuses I'm just a little lazy sometimes.
Yesterday I went so see some of my art and photography work in an exhibition that the school had put on and wanted to share some of the images here on my blog, enjoy!

PINK OMBRÈ LIPS

Today was the day I finished my second a-level YAY!!  So naturally I was in an extremely good mood. This led me to wanting to mix up my make up a bit. Recently I've been really loving MAC's Candy Yum Yum in the Matte finish. It's such a fun pretty shade of hot pink with a slight undertone of blue. The only down side to the MAC Matte finishes is they dry my lips so much. However I'm willing to suffer for this amazing shade! I've literally been wearing it daily.

DIY GEL NAILS

I'm a big lover of gel nails! The high shine and smooth texture is a love of mine. I've never had my nails done using gel polish at a salon before as I am on a budget!

I purchased the Sensationail starter kit which gave me everything I needed to get started! I've quickly googled how much this was, and I've found an offer on at boots for the Starter Kit and Scarlet Red shade for £45. I own about 8 colours now and I love every single one. The colour I'm using today is the Pink Chiffon colour from the Sensationail range. It's so easy to do!

I started off my using the Gel Cleanser to clean down my nails before I start.
