Individual False Eyelashes

After discovering this video on youtube from the wonderful MUA Lisa Eldridge, i decided to give individual lashes a try. These ones are by Ardell and are in both the short and medium length, i used the clear Duo eyelash glue and followed the same technique as Eldridge :)

The Video:
The finished look:



I love how it's super natural, and much less obvious than strip lashes :)

All in all, these are really quick and easy to apply, and i LOVE the overall effect, very natural with a pretty almost 'fluffy' finish :)

Love these, everyone should give them a go!

Mini Sale Haul

A couple of things i have picked up in the sale:

KG Shoes £100  £49. But with a £20 gift card from Elle magazine they only cost me £29! :)

I love the androgynous style of these shoes

Fur collared coat from New Look £59.99  £24. Bargain! The coat is actually black but they don't have a picture of it on their website...

And finally:
These weren't in the sale but i have been toying with the idea of trying individual lashes, and after seeing a really helpful youtube video (thanks Lisa Eldridge!)on how to apply them, i thought i'd go for it :)
Ardell lashes in short and medium. The medium were £5.20, and the short were £3.49, i don't understand why the price difference was so big...

My Christmas Wish List :)
Hey guys, sorry we haven't blogged in a while, but we've been so busy! Lauren's at uni and I'm working for my gap year. So. I thought I would give you all a look into my xmas wish list :)  There are so many items on which I am completely undecided still, for example the shoes and coats, and I'll probs have to decide really soon! Enjoy! X
Other Bits and Bobs that I'm going to ask for. I don't think I'll be getting all of them at all, that would be very demanding of me :P I REALLY want the navy Joules scarf though asap so I might just buy that with my own money - I've tried it on and it's SO nice and warm. It's also really thick and knitted. I also need a new bra, so I thought the cute flowery bra from Oysho would be perfect. Also, at the moment I'm really into mix and match edgy earrings so when I found the ones from Topshop I was like OMG! I'm also into edgy/unique looking jewellery so that's why the earrings and claw ring are on there too. I also NEED black high tops converse - they go with so many things and are a fashion essential I lack in :P As for makeup, I'm really into bronze colours, so I picked the three shown.

Right, I have to choose ONE coat out of these three! If I could, I would buy all three, but unfortunately I don't have enough money :(  I've tried all three on and all of them feel really comfortable. I love the mulled wine colour of the duffle coat and I could feel that it was very warm and comfortable, however, it is a lot of money, but I know that I will wear it all the time and get some good use out of it for years to come. My next option is the Hollister one. I love the fur on the hood and I love the interior pattern. It does come up very short compared to the other two coats but it's so much more casual and I could wear it in the spring as well when it's just a bit too warm for a big coat. My final option is the New Look parka. I didn't actually like the colour at first but when I tried it on it was very complementary for my skin tone. I like the fact that you can create a waist line with the waist belt and obviously it is by far the cheapest option... Hmmmm.... Ahh why can't I jusy buy all of them?

LOVE anything that is in Urban Outfitters - especially their jewellery! I basically want all of these pieces of jewellery, BUT they are quite pricey, even for my parents to buy me, so I might just wait for the January sales and take a trip up to Oxford street then.

I really need some flat heeled boots for the coming months. I only have some with a huge heel, which is a bit impractical for walking London for example. I really like both styles to be honest. It's going to take me a while to decide.... :P

So yeah, that's my xmas wish list for this year :) Of course, I'm not expecting all of it, but it would be nice to get a few bits etc :)

Ciao!

A Few Snapshots of Ibiza

Hey guys, so at the beginning of this month Amy and I gave ourselves a well deserved break and headed over to the sunny island of Ibiza :) Had the most chillaxed holiday of my life, went to Ibiza Rocks, a little bit of clubbing, snorkelling, and of course a little cheeky bit of sun worshipping ;)

Mini Shoes!

Also, while in London i popped into Selfridges as they are celebrating their Shoe Gallerie's one year birthday (does not seem that long ago it opened!) To celebrate they had miniature versions of some of the shoes they sell, so i thought i take a photo to show the people who won't/can't make it into London to see them :)

Aren't they adorable!?
Everyone was cooing and awwing over them :P

Garnier BB Cream

Hey guys,

As well as buying some fur and knitted stuff from H&M on Monday, I also popped into Superdrug and picked up the Garnier BB Cream. This retails at £9.99 but for some reason i was only charged £7.99 at the till, but I didn't complain ;) (Just been on the website, they have it on offer atm for £7.99 so get down there!). I have heard so many rave reviews about this product so thought i would try it out myself.

Forever 21 on Oxford Street!

Hey Guys, 
So today i went and enrolled at uni and then stopped by Forever 21 and Urban Outfitters on Oxford Street where my mum treated me to some jewellery (being a student i can now use the 'I'm poor, I'm a student' excuse). So i ended up leaving with a lovely fluorescent yellow F21 bag filled with some lovely goodies :)
