The Go To

Hi Guy's!

This evening I'm posting what I like to call 'The-Go-To', simply because that's exactly what it is. Acid wash jeans, a white t-shirt that is easily 3 sizes too big for me, and some leopard print pumps. I was heading off to do some thing's in town so it's really casual. I did however dress it up with this blazer I snatched up in a charity shop for less than €1 - which, by the way, I'm blaming Kate for ;) I matched the blazer to my lipstick which is MAC's Girl About Town, a glossy hot pink that is super pretty in my opinion!

I'm also featuring my new ring's.. The one with the lilac stone is one I picked up from a local music & art fair, and the one with the little cat is from e-bay. I've named him Lewis in case your wondering!

I'm posting a #throwbackthursday blog post tomorrow so come check that out too!

Mani Who?

Hello my loves...

Today I'd like to share with you a new experience of mine. Last week I got my first Mani-Q. When I first heard of this I literally said Mani who? I'd never heard of it before. Basically it's a 2 week non-chip, gel finish manicure over your own nails. This mean's there's no damage to your nails the way there is with getting gel nails. I've had a terrible experience with gel's so I'm not keen to ever rely on them again but because I've grown my own nails this summer I was able to get one of these manicures. It was a gift from my Mom for my birthday and I used the voucher last week before I headed off to Eminem at Slane here in Ireland and nearly a week later there still going strong. 

I got them done in a salon where I live called LA Beauty by the gorgeous Laura who owns the salon. I go there for everything and honestly, if I ever decide to move country she's coming with me. I really do trust her completely. The experience itself was so relaxing, it wasn't very time consuming which was great as I got it done between appointments and although I didn't have to pay for it I know that they cost €20 or €17 with a student discount. How great is that?

If this is something that's available in your area I would highly recommend it - such a great idea!

21 at last

Hey guys!

So a couple of weeks ago I turned 21! 21 at LAST... I've always been the baby of my group of friends so it was nice to finally celebrate my 21st birthday! I'm not a huge fan of big part's or thing's like that so I just had a small gathering in my house with some of my cloesest friends, my mom, and my brother and sister! My Mom and my friends spoiled me so much I wasn't expecting anything really and I ended up with an iPhone 4S which I was estatic about! I got so many other nice thing's, had so much fun and my cake was brilliant. A white chocolate and cream cake with a picture of my Benjamin and I on it :) It's tradition in Ireland I think for baby picture's to be on display on a 21st cake but nope, I got my cat. I like to be different, what can I say? ;)

Anyway, I had such a great night I just wanted to show you some pictures :)

 Happy Birthday to me :)

 My fantastic cake.

 My fave's - Shirley, Katie, Maryanne, Paddy, Myself, Lisa and Aislinn.

Lisa and I.

My Mom & I. My best friend.

Maybelline Colour Tattoos

Hello my darlings!

I'm back today with something that I've been actually loving the last few weeks! They've been around for months but it's only now that I've seen a colour that made me stop and think "yes, you must be mine", and that's this stunning colour in 'Pomegranate'. Cream eye shadows have never really been my thing because, I'll be honest, I'm not the best at applying them. I seen this colour when Zoe showed it in a favourite's video. Alas, do you think that my local Boots would have it in stock? No, of course not. Just my luck. However, I found it while wandering around one of the bigger Boots in the city and snapped it right up!

I applied it first for a wedding I went to a couple of weeks ago and it's such a nice, shimmery burgundy colour. The lasting power is great and it doesn't crease at all. This little beauty has defiantly made me more open to using more cream eye shadows in the future so any recommendation's tweet me :)
