ohhh 2nd post of the day!

So to make up for my lack of posting I've decided to do two posts in the space of about five minutes :)
This one is more of a discussion point. Its not makeup related but I really want to hear lots of views.
Losing your virginity?
Been a topic that I've had to think about a lot recently.
I know very personal thing but I really want to hear people views, experiences and everything. Really need some people to talk to!
Literally any small comment or advice or anything I would be so grateful to hear from you.
Thankyou so much guys :)

Hi guysss!


I am so so so so so so sorry! Its been aaaaaaaages! I'm my gcses at the moment and have literally had no time at all to do any posts. I was thinking of giving up my blog completely but then saw a comment from surinsays - thankyou so much babe :) inspired me to keep going.
Anyway the post for today is the makeup I used for my last day, We all decided to do crazy amounts of makeup to school just because we're not usually allowed any!
I did a black smokey look on my eyes using bourjois smokey eyes set (the black one) with some mac black tied eyeshadow on top then some chanel liquid liner and lots of mascara. I used a LOT of bronzer and some bright pink lipstick - barry m number 145.
It seemed alot in the day but was really fun and looked quite good in all the pictures. Anyone else doing exams at the moment? Arent they awful! I'm stressed constantly ahhhh!
Hope youre all doing well :)
Would love to hear from you in the comment

The theme was black and white so I wore a black and white dress and black lace tights with black heels - I'll post the outfit soon :) For my makeup I wanted to add a little bit of colour so I put a black and red pigment on my eyes with red lips and a red blush.

Been away again!


I am so so sorry guys I havent posted anything in YEARS! i've been so busy revising for my gcses and going out and stuff that I've completely paid no attention to the blog and its been making me sad because I so enjoy the feedback i get :) hopefully you havent given up on me!

Anyways I'm doing another outfit post - because i do love them so much!

I wore this outfit to a gig I went to about a week ago with my friends. As ever i dressed up :) Genuinelly it would be hard for me to feel overdressed for any occasion! I wear heels, dresses and lipstick whenever i go out in the day! As me and my friend said the other day - we would both rather be smart than 'fit'.

I am wearing a dress my mum got me from fashion union mail order catelogue with some black opaques and then some black ankle boots from new look. My hair I just straightened quickly and then on my face I used some nude colours from my urban decay sustainable shadow pallet and used some of mac's girl about town lipstick.

Song of the day - kelsey by metro station.

The weather is AMAZING at the moment! Spent my day yesterday lazing about brick lane, camden and leicester square in the sun. absolute bliss! hope summer is like the last couple of days! What have you been up to in our recent amazing weather?

Weight recap!

So a while ago I did a post about my weight. I have since then kept struggling but it is working :) I have gone out in crop tops and not been shamed. I have come off the one meal a day diet and am not on two meals a day. Plus the hour of exercise. The diet is still quite challenging especially seeing the HUGE amount of food the people around me eat. So i've found a new but controversial way of sticking to my diet. Everytime I get near food or feel like eating when im not supposed to I get up a pro ana site on my blackberry and read the quotes. These give me the willpower to not eat :)

Some of my favourite quotes:
the infamous kate moss quote - 'nothing tastes as good as skinny feels'

Saying 'no thankyou' is saying 'yes please' to being thin

Eating is weak, be strong and you will be better than everyone

Anyone can have inner beauty but few can earn real beauty inside and out

Starving hurts but it works.

Now some of you may think these are very extremists and strange however they really work for me and make not eating quite easy :) obviously these could be very dangerous for anorexic people but I believe I use them sensibly and in the way they are designed to be used. My two favourite sites are www.starvingbeauty.com and Ana's thinspiration.

What are your thoughts on this very controversial topic?

Tip of the day!

So I found this new way of applying eyeshadow last night while getting ready for a party (I know good time to experiment ehh?) I was applying a pigment to my lid and I wanted it to be really vibrant so having primed my eye I put a little water in the cap and some pigment in with that like I have seen done many times by people on youtube videos on beauty blogs. This looked really vibrant however it was quite messy. I then got washed and drieed my brush and applied some dry pigment over the top of the wet pigment - it stuck so well and kept the gorgeous mettalicy finish! Definitely worth a try! I did this with barry m dazzle dust in number 8 silver iridescence but it would work with any colour or type of pigment.

Try this out if you've got time and want to make an impact at an event :)

What are your feelings on barry m dazzle dusts? Favourite colour?
