Bagg

Wooh! I got my first follower :) But seeing as my computer is set to block social networking sites I cannot see who it is :(. Whoever you are I am so sorry for my pathetic ramblings.

Anyway, today is the day for an apology. 10 days! I am so sorry to say that it has been that long since I last posted. Mainly, I am going to make my first bag post. 

So, mon baggy. I originally got as a Christmas present from my brother last year, using my incredible powers of persuasion. I love it to bits, it is made of plastic but looks enough like leather for me. It goes with almost all of my clothes and I wear it all the time.

Glasses; Purple ray-bans, came free with a magazine last year. I can't complain! They are quite cool though.

Hairbrush; This cost about a quid at tesco because I keep losing them so can't be bothered to spend much.

The book; 'Reaper Man' by Terry Pratchett. I must have read almost all of his book. he is quite the genius. Anyway, I was bored and (not) looking forward to a long drive so chucked this in.

Biscuits; Hey I was hungry! I found these in the cupboard and snuck them out and into my bag.

Purse; I love this purse. I got it in Tunisia when I went at Easter. The place is full of markets where you have to haggle your price which can be quite scary! I am also blonde and pale so was quite the novelty. Anyway, we found this prix-fix (fixed price shop) and it was haven! Anyway, my purse is a fake Louis-Vuitton (don't judge, I couldn't actually see any bags or purses that weren't fake designer) and red and lovely. I love this so much I haven't stopped using it for ever. It's not a bad fake either haha.

iPod; I got this with my Birthday money at the end of September. It is purple. It has my name engraved on the back. Too cool huh? Anyway, I can't survive without it, one time I left it at my dads and had to go three days without it. It was insanely hard. The earphones match, I know but the ones from Apple that came with it broke! They only lasted about 8 months as well... Rubbish.

Make-up bag; I would be lost without this! It has all my essentials: Mascara, eyeliner, lip gloss, vaseline, translucent powder, foundation (used as concealer), make up bushes, mirror, tea tree stick, eye lash curlers.

Nail polishes; Pale pink and clear for emergencies. The best colours in the world, subtle and go with anything.

Perfume; Elle by Yves Saint Laurent. Again a Christmas present but from my mum. It smells incredible and I wear it every day. 

Bangles; Set of four from primark. They are wood, gold, and enamel (well, plastic but looks as good as) I was wearing them and they went amazingly with my outfit but they were making too much noise so took them off.

Keys; Well, kind of obvious really. I have a couple of heart key fobs on them. My fave is the union jack heart from accessorize which I got before Christmas. 

My pins badges! Technically not all pin badges but what the hey. The white, red and lips were in a set of 5 that I got for Christmas. The frog was on eof those RSPCA ones which I got in a hyper moment. The once with the multicolored circle thing I got a couple of days ago at this graphics show in London. The horse was on eof my mums old ones which she either gave to me or I nicked. It really love it, event hough all the paint has entirely worn off. Lastly, the gold safety pin. It came with some or other item of clothing I got a while back and I shoved it on.

Well, I'm sure you found this babbly post enlightening and I am also sure that you life feels so much fuller. Wisdom shared for the day.

Have fun

Just a quickie today, I haven't got much time - I need to rush out to (*shudders*) orchestra where I can happily screech away on my violin. With my friends so that's okay. So instead of posting something meaningful (from me? Yeah right!) I juts plugged my polyvore account with the new set I made. I really find it hard to believe it has been two whole weeks since I made a new set! Well... Anyway love you all xx

Vintage? A bit

Photos!

 

I haven't found my camera :( but have nicked mums. So I was in the garden on a rare sunny day and thought 'haha, let the (crap) photography commence' There are loads more photos of flowers and stuff but are qite boring so I didn't think I should subject you to such torture

From Top: Poppy bud thing, my shoes (Topshop), rasberries, the shed door, the towel on the washing line.

Have fun with this summer

Shop-a-holic

Yay! I bought the skirt a couple of days ago from Topshop and am so pleased! I also bought some shoes from there for rock climbing - not the flamingo ones but they are quite cool all the same. Oh and the next day I bought a lovely grey cardigan - very long and soft. Oh and blue spotty pajama bottoms. And a cute starry cami. *sighs* I am going to be skint for weeks

Anyway, I was going to take some photos of outfits with the new clothes but shock-horror I have lost my camera! I can't find it anywhere so in the mean time I'm going to put a load of polyvore sets on here with the items I bought

Skirt

You know when you are shopping and then you have a BAM moment of true material love? I have just had one. It is a skirt. It is amazing. It is, most importantly, on S A L E for a mere £12! I know, I know... it is purple and bright red. But do I care? No! I am thinking of wearing it with a plain white vest top, black heart pendant and red bow ring from Accessorize. Anyway, I am planning on buying it tomorrow after school and wearing it at the weekend. I'll upload some photos soon xx

Not so daily, huh?

Hmm I know its supposed to be daily and all but not so much is it? In my defense I have been very busy with school and all lately. Anyway, here's todays stuff.

I am thinking summer make-up today, and here are some links and whatnot to see some of what I think is really good summer makeup. In this post I am trying to use make-up from many different brands even though in life I tend to favour only a few.

Foundation; If using liquid , it needs to be light, easy to apply and not oily. I personally use Collection 2000 Sheer Moist Foundation which I love. The best bit? She shape slips really easily into my (small) make-up bag! Another I have heard to be really good is Max Factor Liquid Illusion Foundation which yeah, when I tried it in the shop was amazing (on the back of my hand anyway). Because it's summer you might find powder foundation just so much easier to handle, in which case I'd reccommend Prestige Perfectly Matte Translucent Powder

Eyeshadow; I currently use the prettyest light gold/champagne colour on my eyes which is slightly metallic so lightens and brigtens and looks gorgeous. The extra bonus? It takes abou 30 seconds to apply! I love the colours of both Rimmel London's Colour Rush Mono Eyeshadow in Spun Gold and 17 Glitter eyeshadow in Gold Digger is very pretty too. Fab Tip! If you aren't sure about gold eyeshadow, use some silver and put a little bit of yellow or bronzing powder straight over that. You should get the right kind of result with this and see how it looks!

Mascara; Well you definitley want something waterproof for hot days (especially if you are going to the beach) because who wants thier mascara running on a hot sweaty day? I am in love with Benefit BADgal Waterproof Mascara and Miss Sporty Just clear mascara because although it is not coloured you don't have to worry about it running and it is quick to apply

Lipgloss; Any, really. Rimmel Sweet Jelly Lipgloss is so yummy and comes in a shade for every mood. I also love Clinique Full Potential Lips which, yeah, is quite sticky but lasts for ever.

Have fun experimenting
