Lipstick Loves #2 MAC Jazzed

First of all, a massive thank you for everyones lovely responses to the first lipstick feature posted on Saturday! The next lipstick i want to share with you is from MAC's latest collection, "In The Groove". Jazzed is a beautiful corally pink, which reminds me of a toned down vegas volt or a more vibrant shy girl, but perhaps a little pinker! I think it's such a nice colour for summer & have been alternating it with Snob since i bought it.

The only niggle i have about this lipstick is that it's a cremesheen, so although it has a lovely finish and is really moisturising, it's already started to break and i've not had it very long :(
Jazzed was the only thing that i bought from the this collection, and i think i might have to stock up before it's finished!

Lipstick Loves #1 MAC Snob

When it comes to beauty products, my guilty pleasure is lipstick. Whenever a new collection comes out, the lipsticks are the first thing to attract me to it, or turn me away. I love them. If i could, i'd have every single MAC lipstick going, although i'm one of the most indecisive people ever, so that probably wouldn't be very wise!

I mentioned on my twitter that i was going to start doing a lipstick feature on my blog, so for the first one i started with MAC 'Snob' - it's featured in the last 3 or so posts i've done on here, and seems to be getting a lot of love from you all!
Snob is described my MAC as a "ladylike mauve" and comes in a satin finish, which might just be my new favourite.
I love the smell and texture of cremesheens, but i'm fed up of them melting and getting ruined! With the satin finish it's a little more glossy & moisturising than a matte, but without the problems of a cremesheen.

It's quite a bluey/purpley pink, which i love. I've worn and loved it during the day time and also for nights out, which i like. I have some lippies that seem too dressy for daytime/too boring for evening, but this is a perfect mix. It's slowly becoming my all time favourite pink shade i think..
Have you ever, or do you think you will try Snob?

Vodka & Orange

Hi girls, unfortunately i'm a little bit too hungover to write a proper post today. But this is what i wore last night. It was a brilliant night, too many vodka & oranges, my best friend, some strangers that became our friends and who spoke with a lot of wisdom!
Hope everyone is well xxx

Face Of The Day.

Hellooooo, as usual, i'm constantly busy busy busy and have no time to blog as much as i wish i could! This weekend, however, i finally had a bit of time to chill out and spent it with my mum! It was lovely as we don't often get to spend quality time together because of our busy lives! Last night we went out for tapas and then for some drinks - a little too much wine was consumed, mainly by me, but we had such a laugh! This morning we went into town for a bit of a browse and a nice coffee. I did my make up super quick this morning and felt a little bit delicate after last night, but i was pleased with how it turned out so i thought i'd do a quick 'fotd' post! I didn't get a picture of my outfit but i wore a beige tunic/top, black leggings, my leather over knee flat boots, a grey blazer and my Alexander Mcqueen scarf with a quilted leather/chain strap (i wish it was actually chanel..) bag.

I've had such a lovely time despite the sun hiding all weekend, it was so nice to have a couple of days off work! Also my sister gets back from Marbella tonight so i'm looking forward to seeing her and hearing about what she got up to, and hopefully getting a present...hehe.
I've made her some little cupcakes to welcome her home!
Hope everyone else has enjoyed the weekend :)
Lots of love xxx

Tie-Dye Maxi Dress & Snob Lipstick.

I don't think i can call this an outfit post, as you can barely see my outfit, but you can imagine it from what you can see i think! It is a gorgeous tie-dye t-shirt maxi that i bought from New Look a couple of weeks ago. It's my favourite maxi dress that i have! The day that these photos were taken i wore it with my cropped denim jacket and that metal cuff bracelet :)
I also recently bought 'Snob' lipstick by MAC. I won't bore you with swatches as i'm sure you've all seen it before! That's what i'm wearing in these photographs though - in fact i've worn it every day since i bought it until my "Jazzed" lipstick arrived a couple of days ago and became my new favourite! I apologise for the crummy photobooth quality of the pictures - also my hair is in need of more highlights as it's starting to look a little dull!
Hope everyone is ok and having a lovely week so far, please have a look at my blog sale in the post below & get buying!

Highlights in the sunshine.

I had my hair highlighted again last month & got some much lighter shades put through for the summer, which have now turned even lighter thanks to the lovely sunshine we've been having recently! Here are a couple of snapsies!
I'm liking it lots at the moment, good colour for going out in the sunshine! & i've been playing around with some different lipstick colours as well. I bought "Up The Amp" by MAC yesterday, it's quite dark for daytime, but i wore it mixed with GOSH "Darling" to tone it down a bit & fell totally in love. Have any of you tried it?

What i wore today; floral dress.

Evening girlies.
If you follow me on twitter you will have already seen this dress as i excitedly twitpicced it earlier before going out with my friend for coffee & cakes and then driving her back to university! I bought the dress in Topshop on Friday with Boo! It only cost £15, a nice surprise at the till because it didn't match the price tag, and i absolutely love it :)
I wore the dress with leggings & Topshop ballet shoes! On my lippies i wore MAC - Speed Dial, which seemed to match pretty nicely! Unfortunately my hair didn't cooperate so i scrunched it up on my head & off i went. We had a lovely day, hope you all had a good weekend too & enjoy the bank holiday.
I will be announcing the winners of my doll contest tomorrow hopefully!

MAC Lipstick "Vegas Volt"

I bought this lipstick in the MAC store inside Selfridges in Manchester a couple of weeks a go when i was shopping with Boo. It's a much much brighter colour than it shows up as in these pictures (i wish it would show up and you could see properly!), it's such an amazing corally red, i absolutely love it. Next time you are in MAC have a little look! I have usually stuck to pinks and nudes in the past, but i'm getting bolder and brighter baby.
What do you think?
