Red Cami and Cut Outs

Hello Everyone,
Today I'm back to my usual type of post which is a casual outfit that you can dress up or down. I would personally wear this out fit if I was going to Oxford Street to shop 'til I drop.
Links under pictures:
 
 
 
This outfit is perfect if you aren't the most girly girl but is still pretty because of the prints on the trousers and the colour of the top (this top is also sold in different colours). the shoes add a more edgy look to it and so does the jewellery because its not as bling as other jewellery.
 
Bags:
 
 
 
 
I love these bags all of them are amazing and are suited to different styles. Bag One is for more dressy occasions or if your the type of person who doesn't carry much. Bag Two (I call this the city bag) this bag is a bag somebody would use to a look a little smarter and is a person who likes an order. Bag Three the slouchy tote bag this bag is perfect if you like to chuck things into your bag and go, its an easy bag to carry and is perfect for anyone.
 
Thanks for reading and I hope this gives you some inspiration for an outfit you would like to wear. Check back soon for another post!

Birthday Presents

Hello everyone,
Due to having too much fun on my birthday and being carried away I forgot to photograph my presents but I did promise to do a what I got for my birthday post. As everything I got has been put away or  used now I thought I would do a more wordy post and no pictures, I'm very sorry!
 
My first and main big present was of course a trip to NEW YORK! (already been blogged about.)
My next amazing presents were a DKNY purse and a beautiful bracelet.
I also got little bits like PJ's, sweets, and jewellery. I also got money and gift vouchers.
 
These are all the bits and bobs I got for my birthday and I'm very grateful to each and every person who brought me something. These are the best presents I could have ever received but the best present of all is all of your support and constant views on my blog- So thank you very much!!
 
Sorry about the short post but I hope you enjoyed :)

Birthday Make-Up

Hello Everyone,
As promised I have my Birthday make up to share with you. As I was so busy seeing family and friends on my birthday I didn't have time to take a picture of the make up whilst it was on my face but I still thought I'd share it with you anyway.
 
Face/base:
First of all I washed my skin with Simple Triple Action Face Wash.
Then moisturised with E45 Cream.
I next applied a mixture of MAC Match Master foundation in 1.0 and Studio Fix Fluid in NW13 with a Real Techniques Stippling Brush to stipple the foundation on to my face then buffed in using a Real Techniques Buffing Brush from the Core Collection.
Next I added some Sleek Contour powder in light in the hollows of my cheeks and in my temples to give my face a more defined look, I used a contour brush from the Real Techniques Core Collection to do this.
I applied some Sephora Pressed Blush in Rose Sorbet with the Real Techniques Blush Brush.

Eyes:
For my eyes I used the Urban Decay Naked 2 Pallet
First I took Foxy (1) and applied it all over the lid to give an even colour using a MAC 239 Eye Shader Brush.
Then in the crease I used the colour Tease (5) with a MAC 217 Blending Brush.
Next I added some Pistol (8) and Blackout (12) mixed together in the outer V of my eye to give a more smokey look and blended in using the same brush.
After I patted Verve (9) into the middle of my eyelid to make the look more glittery.
Then I lined my top and bottom water lines in Rimmel Soft Khol Kajal Eye Pencil.
I then coloured in my eye brows using the GOSH Eyebrow Kit.
Finally for the eyes I coated my eyelashes in the L'Oreal Volume Million Lashes Excess Noir Extra-Black.
 
Finishing off:
To finish off the look I powdered my face with MAC Mineralised Skin finish in Medium and sprayed it with MAC Fix+ to make sure my make up would stay all night.
Last of all I added Max Factor Lipstick in Bewitching Coral to finish my look. 
 
 

 
 I hope you all enjoyed this post. Don't forget to check back next week to see what I got for my birthday :)
