whats in my bag aumtumn/winter addition








In the Autumn Winter months what's in my bag changes out comes the sunglasses, sun tan lotion and time to pack what I need for the colder months.

In my bag I have lip balm to protect my lips from the cold it has an SPF 15 in it too, as though the sun isn't shinning your lips still need protecting.

Gloves and a hat, you never know from one minute to the next when its going to get cold, so I always have these in my bag just in case I love my fingerless gloves means I can read my book without my hands getting too cold you can get them from Primark for £2. I'm currently reading the island so far its a really great book based on a true story.

I have too have my favourite lipstick to top up during the day this is Gothic glam revenge 3 a lovely berry lipstick and only £2.59 from collection.

With the wind in my hair and lets face it hat hair I need a brush in my bag instead of a giant one that takes up too much room I bought this small pop up brush with a mirror is so tinny but does the job and I have long hair it was a barging at only £1 from Wilkinson.

The biggest must have for me is tissues, either my nose is running from the cold wind or my eyes are watering from the same thing, so these are the  most essential thing in my bag.

The essentials purse, keys, mobile and headphones.

My bag is from Matalan it was £6 I bought it about 4 years ago.

What is in your bag? what cant go without?

Quotes




I love a good quote and when I saw this on pinterest it got me thinking. when we don't like our selves or an aspect of our selves instead of us looking within and trying to fix it we turn that hate on to others and point out their flaws and make them feel bad about themselves.

What we should be doing is looking within, we have the power to change what we don't like, why make someone else feel bad when we could be using that energy to make our selves fell and be a better person.

brand review makeup revolution london

when it comes to make up I spend the most money on my foundation, I like it to be good quality as it the first thing going on my skin and I find the better the foundation the nicer the rest of your make up looks.

As I like to spend a little less on blusher, eye shadows etc I was in superdrug and came across this brand I hadn't seen before, makeup revolution London I bought a eye shadow palett to try it out as it was only £4 bargain right.

I took them home tried them out and loved them they were creamy, went on well lasted for hours were as some cheaper ones tend to wear off. The only thing they were slightly harder to blend but still blended well with a great look at the end of it.

So I had to buy more this is what I bought;


hot spice
 
This pallet was £4 such a great price, they are really pigmented even though 2 are glittery they will be great for summer.
 
 
Here are the swatches for the blushers
 
 
 
peach lights

This is such a pretty pearly highlighter it just gives you that sheen a natural glow to the skin which is extra amazing on my pale white skin.


 Redemption Palette Iconic 3
This pallet is looking a little used as I have wore it most days for the last month, there are 3 Matt shadows and the rest are metallic they aren't a wow foil look on the eye they are really subtle adding dimension to the look. this was only £4



 
Redemption Palette Iconic 2
I really wanted a good neutral pallet and this fitted the bill, like the first pallet they are mostly metallic but wearable for the day, as I've been going for a more bold berry lip I have been using this pallet just to have a clean basic eye and let the lip stand out they blend well and last at least 8 hours without replying and I have been wearing them in the wind and rain so have held up well.

I would recommend this brand, its affordable to anyone I had a deal of buy 2 get 3rd free, so go check them out and let me know what you think, I will be doing a look using them soon.

At Home DIY Lighting



I was looking for a way of adding more relaxed, soft lighting to my living room, but didn't see anything in the shops I liked I wanted something different. I had this lantern I bought from www.sainsburys.co.uk for £10 on sale and used that for my inspiration.


This is a simple thing to do, i bought rose lighting flowers on string wire, and put it through the gap in the top of the lantern. its that simple it adds a different affect than having a normal lap I use it in my living room and as a table light in my bedroom.


lights www.argos.co.uk £12.99

 I hope you like the idea and the effect it gives, if you try it end me your pictures :)

Jessica Alba has a effortless style, she can do the laid back running errands look like this and then glam it up she has a unique style all of her own.

This look is so wearable comfy jeans and knit, I changed the white boots for grey as I think they are more wearable in the UK weather.
