CATCH UP #2


This past month has been a craaaaaazy one - with christmas and new years it been a little hectic. along with uni assignments on top of that it wasn't the easiest holiday period this year! 

New year's eve selfie - I took so little pictures that night and didn't even get one of my outfit. I wore a cute little LBD bardot dress, which I loved. probably my fave dress of 2014, despite not being able to breathe the night.. 

I made dinner - a mexican night with nacho's and fajita's and this is impressive for me as i'm definitely no Jamie Oliver, its safe to say I do struggle a little at uni with cooking dinner, my flat mates have to instruct through each and every part.. (a little embarrassed). 


I love family time, please excuse me wearing my sister's cat hat.. what christmas isn't complete with out a trip to winter wonderland - despite the overly priced stalls it was such a cute little day out in London. 

Home alone is the ultimate christmas film, there is no Christmas when i haven't watched this film, it always makes me feel at home.

Amongst all the yummy food places in cambridge there is a dunkin donuts right near my uni, the next best thing to a krispy kreme.. god help me this isn't going to be good.

But overall 2014 has been a brill year & excited for what 2015 now has in store!!

Please comment your feedback
I'd love to hear it..

BOUT THAT BASE








The daily routine for the base of my make up - 

I've always seemed to struggle with trying to make my darker skin tone all even tone..

 I've had acne in the past but acne on my skin aways leaves awful dark patches/scarring on my skin and one tone of foundation never seemed to match! It was horrible.. I'd spend so much on different colours for different parts of my face but I've now found the solution... 

The PEACH LUSTRE highlighter prep & prime - (yes it's a highlighter) but I use it as a colour corrector and it works wonders!! (I was recommended it by a MAC assistant and never been so pleased with the results.) Where my dark patches are - mainly my chin and fore head.. I apply this to set before my main foundation and it blends in nicely with my Mac studio fix foundation, making my skin all one even tone!

YES I know mac can be a little pricey for foundation but I'd 100% recommend it! It's made my skin feel and look so much better...

BLACK IS SO COLOURFUL










(With aaaaaaaa lot of family stuff going on I've been such a lousy blogger :( apologiessssss, but I'm back for 2015 and fresh start to the blogging year yay.) 



I've become a lover of the colour black.. Never did I think I'd ever see the day. 

It's literally become my fave colour over this winter season (as much as I do hate to admit it).

I've fallen in love with yet another black duster style coat/blazer whatever you want to call it. This one's from H&M.. I'm loving they're stuff, this is only £20!! I'm also wearing a turtle neck crop jumper from new look and layered it with an oversized baggy shirt from H&M. 

(Someone neeeeeeeeds to ban me from H&M, it's such an unhealthy obsession.)
The best thing about winter is wearing more nice clothes, and just on top & on top of each other.. winter season for clothing is my favourite definitely beats the summer!
