So Ill cross my heart
And hope to die
Before I have a chance to lie
To you my dear
Who I wish no harm
But I know in the end this will turn out wrong
See Ive been known to fall in love
But sometimes love just is not enough
And my heart will stray
Before too long

soft on the eyes

2010-12-14T17:59:00.000-08:00

i was bored at home today and decided i wanted to wear green eyeshadow, so i chose the third colour from this revlon "soft on the eyes" palette.

Herbal Essenses "Tousle Me Softly" Range Review

2010-12-09T18:14:00.000-08:00

Touchably Soft Shampoo. Get a perfect start ti an imperfect look. Im tousled hair's first love with a refreshing cleaning. My formula, infused with wild violet and pomegranate, smell extra luscious and leaves you with a strong urge to tousle.

Touchably Soft Conditioner. If success is a sexy mess, then let your locks go loose and beg to be touched. Ill give your hair the conditioning goodness to tousle away, with protection from styling damage. My formula infused with wild violet and pomegranate helps keep strands soft, tangle free, frizz less and virtually perfect so the only thing left to do is mess it up.

Tousling Spray Gel. Im more than a spray gel. Im a messt-style master, with my light weight, targeted sprat and violet splash fragrance. Ive got the control you need to make your style as incredibly imperfect as you want and to hold it flexibly and frizz free. One spray and youll see how good it feels to be a little messy.

I always buy products that would mean I wouldnt have to use any heat styling tools on my already damaged hair. I love the "tousled" look, but my hair would always go frizzy and lank. With these three products my hair strands have a beautiful, soft wave to them!! How I achieved this look;

shampoo twice
condition (leave in for about a minute or so)
towel dry
blow dry my fringe straight
spray the tousling spray gel into my lengths and lightly onto my roots
roll into bun, crocodile clip in place
leave to air dry

Voila!!! If its humid, raining, or Ive been running around, I put some smoothing cream/gel/hair product onto my lengths to tame fly aways. I haven't tried the products seperately, but I believe that this trio works magic! Love it :)

Maybelline Lash Stiletto/Voluptuous Review

2010-12-09T17:46:00.000-08:00

Ive had my Maybelline Lash Stiletto for a few months now, and just the other week I decided to purchase the new Maybelline Lash Stiletto "Voluptuous". Here's my comparison between the two.

The top one (black) is the original Lash Stiletto and the bottom one (red) is the new "voluptuous" mascara.

The original claims that the brush "grips and extends" each lash and coats from every angle. It has an "elastic formula" that stretches lashes for "provocative" length. Pro vitamin B5 formula conditions and smooths for "black patent shine".

The Maybelline Lash Stiletto Voluptuous claims that "now long lashes dont have to be skinny" and that their "dual action" brush stretches as it thickens each lash for "dramatic length and volume". Their rich cream formula "adds the most seductive finish".

From the picture below you can see that the two brushes are different. The original is triangular (the pointy end helps you get to hard to read lashes) and the voluptuous is curved slightly and the bristles are thicker too.
I absolutely HATE the voluptuous wand! It could just be me, but it doesnt "grab" my lashes, and because of the thick brush and my thin lashes, I just get chunks of mascara on my eyelids. The brush that the original Lash Stiletto has, however, is amazing, and it gets to all my lashes. It has coarse bristles that are very narrow and they dont bend, so pretty much wherever you place the mascara, it will go!

Because I have no issue with the actual formula of the voluptuous mascara, Ive decided to switch the brushes. My original Maybelline Lash Stiletto has basically run out anyway, so Im just going to use up the rest of the voluptuous formula using the original brush.

To sum it up, basically, Id give Maybelline Lash Stiletto an 8/10 (nothing wrong with the mascara, but I still prefer my Loreal Telescopic mascara!), but I won't even rate the "Voluptuous" mascara. Id recommend the original, but I wouldnt recommend the "Voluptuous". I think Maybelline just got cocky when the original Lash Stiletto did so well and sold so many, that theyd try it with a different brush.

BIRTH MONTH: october

People born in october are fun loving and energetic, and care very much (sometimes too much) what other people think about them. They love having friends and are outgoing in certain scenarios, but not in others. They may have trouble finding who they realy are but once they click, their personality explodes. October is the best month to be born in.

October, the 10th, and obviously the best month of the year, and is so for several reasons.

1. OKTOBERFEST

2. Birthstone is Opal

3. Zodiac signs Libra and Scorpio

BIRTH PLACE: adelaide

pretty much the best place in the world to live.

adelaide is the capital of south australia, and has a small population. it is very pretty. there r lots of good restaurants, and gorgeous parklands. like other cities, it has its slums (salisbury, elizabeth), but ther r heaps of good suburbs such as burnside, beaumont and leabrook.

hot guys live there.

"How long for?"

"A day."

"Too long mate."

note: **the thing i dont enjoy about the inglot blushes is the fact that they have chunks of glitter in them! not attractive at all. ill definitely be going back for some of their gorgeous eyeshadows, but i wont be purchasing any more inglot blushes.

haul: review blazer and blouse

2010-07-26T23:04:00.000-07:00

i have never claimed to be stylish in any way what so ever, but i bought a cute blazer and top from Review and decided to try it on with other clothes i had at the time (im on hospital still, so i dont have my full wardrobe!!)

ps. please forgive some of the dodgyish photos, my camera is no good without a flash.

below: review blazer, review top, supre skirt (only $40! how cute is it)

below: review top, supre black shorts.

i find the blazer amazing, ive had it just over a week and probably have worn it about 3 times already!! most blazers dont fit me (i have a small frame) and thise one seems to nicely :) i wouldnt have mind it if it was a tiny bit smaller, but its still gorgeous! perfect for day or night.

i love receiving all your comments every now and then when i come home to check my blog, so thankyou all so much! i will return the favour when im home and well :) xx

festival shoes are love.

2010-07-25T00:27:00.000-07:00

i just love festival shoes.

these are only $20 from rubi shoes :)

mind you, you only get $20 worth of value!

might have to invest in some "vans".

eotd + fotd. few weeks ago

2010-07-25T00:21:00.000-07:00

firstly, id like to say thankyou to the comments everyone left in my other posts :) i had a feeling that because i had abandoned my blog for a while that people may have lost interest!! secondly, i do still read all of your blogs, but dont have time to comment but this will change the second i get out of hospital, and i will be getting back to everyone. i absolutely adore all my followers and readers! thankyou so much <3

so here's a smokey blue/white eotd i did a while back, the blue wasn't the colour i wanted, i wanted a way more darker navy blue, but i could only use what i had!! i know my technique and blending needs work, im defs practicing though :)

the first photo in the picture below is without any mascara or eyeliner. i think next time ill line my bottom lashes with the blue shadow, but when i get a better navy blue!

here are the products i used :) not including my foundation, because i just used my HG rimmel foundation.

Review: Australis Duo "Sunkissed Glimmer"

2010-07-23T00:52:00.000-07:00

Packaging i find the packaging rather cute, but kind of cheep looking. black and pink are my favourite colours, so thats a bonus for me.

Quality the thing i dont like about this product is the brush that it comes with. i mean its considerate of the company to add a brush, but its useless, and ends up in a streaky result. so i just use two of my own separate brushes :) but other than that, the highlight and contour are quite good quality!

Price about $10 - $15

My Opinion considering the price, its very good value for money!! i love the contour alot, but the high light seems to pink for my skin, and its hard to blend them properly together which looks fine in normal light, but if youre out in the sun you can see a line, but its not all that noticeable!! overall, i love it :) basically.

inglot palette haul

2010-07-22T23:49:00.000-07:00

i haven't been to keen on inglot makeup because i purchased their pressed powder and first the mua colour matched me completely wrong, but i returned it and got a more suited colour, but it oxidizes really badly with my skin. also, their lighter shadows (the $20 ones, not the ones from the palettes) are so sheer. however, their darker $20 e/s are beautiful, so i decided to check the selection out once again with my friend :) i ended up with two gorgeous palettes !!

the first is an eyeshadow palette,

i went for 10 square e/s for only $85 (thats $8.50 for an excellent quality e/s).

my opinion: love all these colours!! they are so beautiful, and the texture is indescribable!! the packaging is very cute also :) the palettes are magnetic. im definitely heading back there for another 10 palette, hopefully one day i'll have all the colours!! ohhh, but there is a con: the $20 single e/s and the palette e/s aren't the same!! so if you fall in love with a colour from the single e/s range, you might not be able to match it with a palette eyeshadow!

the second palette i chose was a blush palette,

you can choose 4 blushes from a huuuuge selection of bronzers, blushes, highlighters, etc. for only $60.

my opinion: you can see that the hot pink on the left is quite matte, but the other three do have large chunks of shimmer, which is beautiful!! i love all the 4 colours, the one second from left is a peachy/corally colour, likewirse the one second from right, and the one on the right is a very baby doll pink (i liken it to MACs "well dressed"). cons: when i brush my blusher brush over any of these colours quite alot of powder forms, so i dont think they will last very long !! but only time will tell :) my next inglot blush palette will be a mixture of bronzers and high lighters.

instead of explaining the inglot "freedom" system, i just got a pamphlet from the store and took photos of it for you all :) i definitely recommend these palettes, as theyre great quality and affordable!

new clothes from today :)

2010-07-04T02:45:00.000-07:00

just posting this, not because i think these items are heaps interesting, but because i want to blog, but i just cannot be bothered posting my face of the day just yet !! its coming soon though :)

from top: supre skirt $45 (love this, except the elastic waist band may be a tad bit tacky, but ive seen it on other skirts in other shops sooo, maybe its like in or something? dunno), bardot dress $59.95 (i dont overly love this, its just something easy to throw on or whatever.. i need to get it taken up, because it stops at just above the knees, and because im 160cm, i like things short), green valley girl crop tee $9.95 (sooo cheap! and is actually quite flattering!) with bardot scarf $29.95 (i don't usually buy scarfs?), pinky/nudey/peachy valley girl crop tee $9.95 (gorgeously flattering colour), playboy bra $64.99 (wouldn't say playboy bras are the classiest, but they're the only bras that fit nicely that are an 8D!!! apparently something like 80% of the support from bras come from the band, not the straps, so i need an 8, or else the back just rides up!!)

creme d'nude (back to mac) + red earth haul

2010-07-04T02:22:00.000-07:00

ive been able to empty seven mac products! i get through mac foundations (powders and liquids), "boy bait" cremesheen glosses, and their "soft and gentle" skin finishes pretty quickly! but things like eye shadows, blushes, and lipsticks i usually take my time!

this is what i traded in:

and this is what i received through the "back to mac" promotion (six empty mac containers = free lipstick) ... uhhh, so i dont actually have a picture of just the new creme d'nude picture, but below is a picture comparing "myth"(closest to front) and "creme d'nude"(behind).

here are some swatches of "creme d'nude"(left/top) and "myth"(right/bottom). i prefer creme d'nude, hands down :)

and here is what i got from priceline from the red earth clearance/sale:

oh, and the mac "creme d'nude" lipstick is obviously there also haha.

the three eyeshadows i purchased were (clockwise from top left) burnt caramel(friken gorgeous colour), stormy night (used this today in my FOTD, post up soon :).) and iced brownieeeee - this eyeshadow was broken, and because it was sealed i didnt know that it was broken. i opened it on the way home and was like sdchjbvuirebuieqb. and went back to priceline, and they said cos it was clearance it meant i couldnt return it or even exchange! ffs.

i really wish i could do a post that didnt involve me complaining about shitty customer service! i am dooooomed.

oh, and they were $5 each, EXCEPT for the iced brownie! which was $10 - lucky me, the broken one was twice as much as the not broken eyeshadow! haha

anyways, i bought an eyebrow kit, my first ever eyebrow kit! i dont even have an eyebrow pencil, i have like tweezers, but thats about it :) its in blonde, and it was like $25+ or something? but i got it for $18. it has two colours, i use the darker one, and an eyebrow "Setting wax". so far, i like it :)

there isn't like a before or after, but here's me quickly just using the eyebrow kit :) its my first time, and i know it's a messy job, but i really like the way they turned out! hopefully i get the knack of it pretty quickly :)

ive never taken pictures of my eyebrows? before so yeah didn't know which angles were most flattering hahaha and except for mascara, not wearing any makeup! ewww. ahh haha

loreal hair product haul + de lorenzo rejuven8 the ends

2010-06-29T04:44:00.000-07:00

as always, im trying to help my hair :) i style it almost every day and it has been through alot (ive gone from black to brown to blonde to brown to red to blonde to blah blah blah!!!) it needs help! anyways, here are some products i bought today, some ive used before, some i havent!

i initially went in just to purhcase the loreal shine blonde shampoo. i adore this stuff, it makes my hair feel soft and helps tone down the brasiness. other "blonde" shampoos (usually a purple colour) leave my hair feeling brittle. its about$25 per bottle. i have used the conditioner in the past, but if you're only using it a few times a week to tone down brasiness, you don't really need to purhcase the conditioner! (imo)

however, i then decided i may aswell try a new treatment, because they had a "buy 2 loreal products, and receive 15% off" promotion on. the lady who was helping me suggested a buy a pack instead - 3 products for under $50! (worth on average, over $90).

the initial pack came with 3 products: the shine blonde shampoo, the shine blonde conditioner, and a "thermo smoothing milk for natural control".

the lady was nice enough to swap the shine blonde conditioner, for the "absolut repair" mask that was in a different pack! she also gave me the option of a serum, instread of the thermo milk. but i went with the thermo milk :)

so basically in the pack i received the shine blonde shampoo, absolut repair mask, and the thermo milk.

i used the absolut repair mask today (shampooed, towel dried, left on for 3 minutes, rinsed) and it's made my hair quite soft! haven't used it enough to give a proper review, but it doesn't weight down my naturally thin (and non naturallt damaged) hair. so far, so good.

i followed the treatment by applying some of the thermo milk to my towel dried hair :) however, i didn't blow dry it. can't give a review on this just yet! but like the treatment, hasn't weighed down my hair, or made it feel greasy!

the other reason i went to hairhouse warehouse today was to but the de lorenzo rejuven8 the ends cream! in the past ive used up 2 tubes of this (the first one was my brothers, i stole it haha), and it's amazing! it smells delicious, and it's the cheapest and most effective ends serum ive ever used! it's only $18.50 for this tube, and it came with "25% extra" haha. if you have dry ends, you should definitely give this a go. can be used on wet or dry hair!

empties :) with reviews

2010-06-29T04:26:00.000-07:00

Ive been collecting most of my "empties" (used products) in a box for a few months now, and Ive been meaning to do mini reviews on them all! Ive broken them down into groups:

1. "Excellent" Products I will/have re purchase/d.

2. "Average" Products that I have re purchased in the past, but have come across better products since.

3. "Luxury" Products, that are not a neccessity, but I would re purchase if I had $$.

4. Products that are just useless.

* all reviews are based on my personal opinion on the product! im sure that some of the ones I love, you may hate, and some of the ones I hate, you may love!

1. "Excellent" Products I will/have re purchase/d.

Clockwise from Left: Loreal Shine Blonde Shampoo, Vera Wang Princess Perfume, Australis Mineral Inject Lipgloss in Lambada, Clarins Hydra Matte Moisturizer, Clean & Clear Blackhead Clearing Cleanser, The Body Shop Tea Tree Oil Facial Blotting Tissues(Centre).

Loreal Shine Blonde Shampoo. This shampoo is a "purple tinted" shampoo, and it helps to eliminate some "brassiness" that most blondes suffer from! I have tried other brands, like Joico (which dries out my hair quite a bit!), but this is by far the best! It won't give you the same result as foils, or even a toner, but it will definitely help in between salon visits! It leaves my hair soft, and gives it a bit of shine :).

Australis Mineral Inject Lipgloss in Lambada. Have spoken a trillion times about this. Just love it. Under $10, moisturizing, beautiful colour. It doesn't stay on as long as say Mac Lipglass, buuuutt its a third of the price and is far more moisturizing! Perfect for sensitive lips.

Clarins Hydra Matte Moisturizer I have re purchased this 3 times (I think?) since November (I think?) last year! I love it. I have combo skin (dry cheeks, oily nose, normal fore head, conjested chin - annnnd its sensitive too!) and this definitely helps! my skin loves this stuff!

Clean & Clear Blackhead Clearing Cleanser. I have used this on and off since I was about 12. It's non drying, makes my skin feel super soft, and helps with pimples and conjestion. It doesn't perform miracles (I don't have blackheads, but I do have large-ish pores!) but other exfoliators tend to either strip my skin of moisture (that icky tight feeling) or makes my skin red! I use this about 2 - 3 times a week :)

The Body Shop Tea Tree Oil Facial Blotting Tissues. Love these! I have an oily nose, as mentioned, and I need these. I seriously could not live without these! They're under $5 and have 60 sheets. I've used other oil blotting sheets, but most of them take off my make up aswell! These dont.

2. "Average" Products that I have re purchased in the past, but have come across better products since.

Clockwise from Left: Lee Stafford Dry Shampoo (Mini), Jurlique Daily Exfoliating Cream, Loreal Elvive "Anti Breakage" Deep Repairing Masque, Simple Light Moisturizer, Clarins Pore Minimizing Serum, Tea Tree Oil.

Lee Stafford Dry Shampoo (Mini). Honestly, I bought these because of the cute packaging. Ive gone through about 3 or 4 bottles so far. Dry shampoo is great, but when you think about it, it's just baby powder in a spray can.. So, I can do without these! A reason I wouldn't re purchase is that it runs out pretty quickly! I don't get that many uses out of a can.

Jurlique Daily Exfoliating Cream. I was in love with this stuff, but at the end of the day it's too expensive for an exfoliator ($50+) and it's extremely messy to use!

Loreal Elvive "Anti Breakage" Deep Repairing Masque. I don't believe in any "miracle" products out there that can save your hair, but this does a pretty good job. It makes my hair feel soft and nourished, it only takes a few minutes, doesn't weigh down my hair, and it's only about $10! Pretty decent stuff :)

Simple Light Moisturizer. Another old favourite! I found it to stop being effective though. It's about $10 which is great for a moisturizer! Is excellent for sensitive skin, but after switching to Clarins, I tried to go back to this Simple moisturizer, but I just couldn't Clarins is about 10 times better (unfortunately, Clarins is also 5 times more expensive!). But I would reccommend this to sensitive/combo skin who are on a budget.

Clarins Pore Minimizing Serum. I don't even know if this worked or not? it definitely didn't help with controlling sebum, however my pores may have down sized a little bit. I never actually paid for this, it came as a gift pack. I won't re purchase, but I will use it if it comes in another gift pack :) thinking about trying a Clinique pore minimizer next!

Tea Tree Oil. This is the only thing I use for pimples, however I had a bad experience the other week because I reapplied it too often and I had a bit of irritation! So when you do use this, only maximum of twice a day! and just on the pimple, not the skin around! However, this does work! I find it more effective (and less irritating) than marketed pimple poppers! It's also under $5 for a jar that lasts forever.

3. "Luxury" Products, that are not a neccessity, but I would re purchase if I had $$.

Clockwise from Left: ModelCo Skin Drink, The Body Shop Peppermint Intensive Foot Rescue, Clarins Pure and Radiant Mask, The Body Shop Milk Bath, The Body SHop Raspberry Body Butter, Jurlique Soothing Herbal Recovery Gel, Tigi Bedhead Dumb Blond Reconstructor Treatment.

ModelCo Skin Drink. Basically, this is a spray on body moisturizer. It's really convenient in terms of not having to manually slather your body when you cbf. You just spray instead! However, it's about $30 per can, and doesn't last that long. I would buy it, if money grew on trees :)

The Body Shop Peppermint Intensive Foot Rescue. Mmm. Smells delish! This product is gorgeous, I would re purchase (and most probably will when I caveeee) but at the moment I'm using body moisturizer that I don't like using on my body! Also, this stuff seems a bit too yummy and gorgeous to be using on my FEET! I'd rather slather my body with it hahaha

Clarins Pure and Radiant Mask. This stuff is okay. But expensive. Nuff said.

The Body Shop Milk Bath. I enjoy having baths in this :) makes it all creamy, softens my skin, but it's annoying if I want to shave because it leaves a film on my skin and then when I shave, the film gets stuck in the razor and makes shaving less effective. Same goes if I wash my hair in the tub, just makes my hair a weeennny bit greasy. But if you leave your hair up, and just lierally want to soak in the tub, this stuff it lovely.

The Body Shop Raspberry Body Butter. Love this stuff! But, I find The Body Shop Body Butters to be too expensive, because I moisturize like a crazy person! Seriously, day and night, and I don't go easy on the moisturizer! I slather it on! But this body butter smells amazing, it's my favourite. They don't have it in stock at the moment though :(

Jurlique Soothing Herbal Recovery Gel. It's okay, but for the size shown it was about $70, and for a larger size it's about $140! I didn't see a noticeable difference when using this, and if you buy a product for $70 and use it for a month, you expect decent results, right?

Tigi Bedhead Dumb Blond Reconstructor Treatment. Smells like pineapple :) I do enjoy using this, and yes, it does look amazing in my bathroom. It makes my hair soft, and smell lovely, buuuut I'm too keen to try other treatments out there! I will probably re purchase this at a later date. Basically, worth trying, but no miracles.

4. Products that are just useless.

Hair Products (Top): Loreal Elvive Nutri Gloss Conditioning Shine Spray, Kerastase Noctogenist Overnight Revitalizing Treatment, Schwarzkopf Bonacure Repair Rescue Sealed Ends.

Loreal Elvive Nutri Gloss Conditioning Shine Spray. Just makes my hair greasy! Tried spraying less, from further away, when wet, when dry. But still weighed it down, and made it oily. Did not condition. Useless.

Kerastase Noctogenist Overnight Revitalizing Treatment. Okay, this stuff is okay. But for $50? I don't think so.

Schwarzkopf Bonacure Repair Rescue Sealed Ends. I won't re purchase. It's okay though, the price is decent, made my ends kinda soft. But didn't improve the condition, and I've already got something that works waaay better.

Body Products (Middle): Parlor Coconut and White Peach Hand cream, Dove Supreme Body Silk, Reniu Virgin Coconut Body Butter "Watermelon Infusion".

Parlor Coconut and White Peach Hand cream. I loved the scent at first, but it definitely made me sick after a few uses! It's okay, does moisturize a bit, but I've found a hand cream that works alot better.

Dove Supreme Body Silk. It's okay, the tub didn't last me very long, and in the winter it was a bit hard to spread. It moisturizers okay, but the scent is too "old lady" for me.

Reniu Virgin Coconut Body Butter "Watermelon Infusion". Nom, nom nom. Smells gorgeous :) Kinda. Like Coconut and a little bit of watermelon. Quite rich, and if your prone to body acne (little bit of conjestion?) then this will definitely clog your pores on your body! It's very rich, and far too rich for the summer because it just feels like your sticky all day long haha. it doesn't suit winter either, because who goes aorund smelling like coconut and watermelon when it's 4 degrees? weirddddd..

Face Products (Bottom): Lush Eau Roma Water, Jurlique Intense Recovery Mask.

Lush Eau Roma Water. "Excellent for dry, old or sensitive skins." I used this on my cheeks (dry, and sensitive) and it didn't do anything. It's just kinda useless? Not worth a cent. I popped it into a spray bottle and just used it as a refresher, but it's still in the spray bottle, because I hardly use it. Maybe in the mornings after a big night out, just to feel half awake :)

Jurlique Intense Recovery Mask. I loved using this. It's great when it's part of a routine, however, I didn't get any "results", and it was a bit expensive! There are far better face masks, for half the price!

Other (Diagonal, Right): Sportsgirl Give Some Lip Lipgloss, Clinique Superfit Makeup, Covergirl Advance Radiance Age Defying Compact Makeup, Loreal Telescopic Mascara, Impulse Body Spray.

These last items are okay, I used to enjoy using them, it's just that I've found more affective products :) Not giving them a bad rap, and I used to love the Clinique foundation and Loreal telescopic mascara (I still use this, but it's in a black tube, not silver!).

If you would like any more information (based on my opinion) of these products, just ask :)

20/6 + 21/6 E/OOTD

2010-06-21T02:52:00.000-07:00

Tad uninspired. I thought I was getting back into blogging, guess not :( I've been takings photo's, but the photos never turn out how it actually is in "real life" !!! Cannot wait to get a new cameraaaa!

Yesterday:

I used a really cheap palette for this look! Well, th silver shadow came from the cheap palette. It's a "models prefer" palette, and it has 8 eyeshadows, and 2 blushes (one light pink, one very dark pink - I used the light pink for my cheeks.) The silver shadow from the palette is actually kinda amazing! It's heaps pigmented, but the staying power is average. Pretty sure I paid a couple of dollars for the whole palette!!!

The black shadow is a Revlon quad e/s palette I bought agggges ago.

And the eyeliner is my favourite, Face of Australia liquid liner! It's under $10!!! goes on easily (I'm retarded when it comes to liquid liner!), and lasts all day :)

I went out to dinner wearing thisssss.

It's so extremely hard to take photos of the wholeeee outfit!! I would use my timer, but it doesn't work ever since my camera was dropped in water!

Ohhh, and today, some random chick came up and asked where I got the boots from :) They're from Rubi Shoes!! they were like $60ish?

Today:

I'm using Maybelline Lash Stilhetto in these pictures, and I'm not all that impressed with this mascara! The first two times I used it, I was madly inlove with it! But now I reckon I'll definitely be going back to my beloved Loreal Telescopic!

I'm getting my hair done tmoz :) It is sooooo brassy right now!! Haven't had it done in like THREE months! I was trying to grow it out, but the regrowth is just ridiculous!

O/FOTN + dumbness

2010-06-15T04:26:00.000-07:00

Okay, well I'm going to start this post off with an explanation! I don't know why, but likeeee, I just feel like I have to give one haha.

Basically, I'm just talking about how bloggers put pictures up from their nights out, and while I'd love to do that and make my blog more personal, it's like I can't! because I am a total cadbury. For those of you who don't know what that means (sure you allll do), it's just like after one or two drinks I start not only being intoxicated but LOOKING intoxicated! I look so dumb when I've been drinking!!! Here's some proof!

Therefore, because I don't really go to my friends for pre drinks and be like "hey, I write a blog, do you mind taking a photo of what I'm wearing?" I don't have anyone (except my brother) to take photos of my outfits! My outfits are boringggg anyways. Anyways, that's my explanation :)

These are my new heels that I bought last week :) Love them! they are SOOO comfortable! wore them out 2 nights in a row, which I never do because usually I have to switch shoes orelse I get the sorest feet! Ohhh, and see that white stain in the second picture? Yesss, I did get rid of it before I went out! facewipe + hair dryer :)

Ps. No, this isn't a very interesting post haha. I will do some reviews tomorrow :)

Mini Haul + New Wayne Cooper Bag + New Sportsgirl Thigh High Boots

2010-06-15T00:05:00.000-07:00

So I was going to do a FOTD along with my new bags and boots, but got lazy! :) So here's just a few quickies I bought when I went shopping at the local Tar-jayyyy with my mum this arvo.

Le Tan Fast Tan Instant Tanning Mousse in Deep Bronze

about $10-$15

Iam quite pale! For reference, Im a MAC nc20. After going out a few times with my friend from a sunnier state than my own, I decided I should tan up so I don't look so creepy next to her! I've used this before, for about a month last year I was obsessed with tanning!

But I couldn't find one that didn't turn orange (because I have pale skin, alot of tanners can go orange!), and that faded evenly (as even as a fake tan can fade!).

Anyways, I've tried heaps. But won't get into them all, as I am planning on doing a post just on the fake tan products I've used. This one is my favourite :)

*Note: I only use one coat!! Followed by a "daily tanning moisturizer".

Rimmel Lasting Finish Foundation in Soft Beige

about $17

This is my HG foundation, except I usually get it in Ivory, the shade lighter. But because I realised that I probably needed a foundation that matches the fake tan! Works alot better than applying bronzer imo.

Modelista Highlighting Powder

under $10

Bought this because it was something like 30% off? and I think the packaging is tacky, but cuuuute :) Kinda like Tigi Bedhead products!

Yaaay. Finally got my Wayne Cooper bag off of lay buy!! I hate being povooo cos it means I can't afford to buy things out right!! Bought it from Myers for $199. Bit peeved, cos like a week afterwards they had 30% off bags! Uhhh. Anyways, I love it :).

Also, took my Sportsgirl Thigh High Boots off lay buy aswell :) they're $230 from Sportsgirl. I think I may already be over them? Don't know.. Cbf trying them on haha

We Love Sounds in Pictures

Hope everyone had a great weekend! Pretty sure it was a long weekend all around the world? Don't know though! :)

"We Love Sounds" Pre Planned OOTD

2010-06-09T22:58:00.000-07:00

Hello Lovelies :)

Im deathly sick as I write this... I don't care that my mum thinks that the bumps on the back of my tongue are "taste buds" and that "she was them too" ... I believe they're instensely swollen glands haha.

Hmm no but really, I'm sick, I have a cold (chroniccccccccccc!!!!!) and I'm dev'd cos WE LOVE SOUNDS is on monday, and I wanna be fighting fit for that! Hell yes to free tickets :)

Some dude on Saturday night was like "here" and waved 3 free tickets in front of my face. I love drunken WLS promoters hahaha. Helps if they're a guy aswell!

Anyways, so usually I pre plan what I wear. I've never been to a winter concert before so I'm baffled. All I know is that in winter, even though it's like 10degrees, I get hot when I dance! so here's what I'm thinkinggggggggg:

So basically, (basic is the key word), it's ripped shorts, black knee high boots, a cardi (so I don't look too insane), and a singlet (so that when I get hot I can take off my cardi instead of sweating like a mofo into it). Buuuuut. I'm gonna see what my friends are wearing :)

Ohhh, and I got my thigh boots today!!! Will do a post on them later :) I also have a FOTD from Saturday night, and a few bits and bobs. I'm so lazy.

and I'm concerned about my makeup. WLS starts at 12 midday, buttt the pre party starts at 9 am. WLS ends at 12pm that night! so that's literally........ over half a day...... How is my makeup gonna last that long? haha

Tips???

New Nude Pumps +OOTD + Satin Indulgence

2010-06-04T01:13:00.000-07:00

I had a ridiculously good day. No joke! It was amazinggggggg. :) sooo excited for tomorrow night! Don't you love when you realise that life is great? Happy happy happy :) haha

Anyways!!!! Here is part of the greatness of my great day :) New shoes. Not just any new shoes. New nude pumps! I have been looking for a pair like this for MONTHS. I found them last Saturday (when I bought the black booties), put them on hold, and then bought them yesterday. The only thing was, the Myers I got the first pair from didn't have any 8.5 (I'm usually an 8, but these were small sizes). Because I reeaallllyy wanted these to. fricken. die. for. shoes I decided that even though my outer two toes were squished to buggery, that yes, these shoes did fit.

So I picked them up from Lay Buy yesterday, took them home, tried them on, still didn't fit.

I decided to "wear them in" a bit, but after twenty minutes my feet hated me.

I took them back today, and asked them to ring other stores. First five stores said they didn't have any. But the last store did! 8.5 Tony Bianco Nude Pumps :) Happy happy happy. They were $139.95. I'm a tad bummed, cos on wednesday they had a 30% of all shoes sale. Grrr. But whatever, these are the perfect fucking shoes. <3

These shoes are perfect because they're not oober high (like some other deadly ones I own) like, don't get me wrong, I loveee intense high heels, but for town they're not really suitable! Also, because I'm short, when I have heels that are 14 cm, that makes me 174cm! which is waaaay too tall for me to feel like myself! I actually enjoy being short!

Another reason I love them is because the toe is not too pointy (making my feet look weirdly hugee) and not too rounded (making my legs look weirdly hugee!).

I have retarded boobs. They're lovely and all, but impossible to find gorgeous bras that fit. One brand I openly love is Playboy. another, is Satin Indulgence. Today I went into Bras n Things and bought a bra/undie combo I've been eyeing off for ages!!!

Too cute right? I love Satin Indulgence bras because even though they don't come in 8s, the 10 is a really small fit!! The 10 is tighter than most 8s!! <33 Tha bra was $60 and the cuteeeee little g was $25. I don't usually spend $25 on undies, but these are gorgeous! and if I'm going to get a gorgeous bra like this, I will buy the matching undies!

Annnnnd. Onto my OOTD :) Simpleeee, but that's how I do

Ohhhh, also did a small drug store beauty haul yesterday. But I'll do that in another post :)

I hope everyone else is loving life as much as Iam :) love youuu.

HOTD + FOTD + OOTD + New Chi Chi Shimmer Brick

2010-05-31T23:57:00.000-07:00

Stuff I used:

Maybelline Lash Stilhetto Mascara

Prestige Gold Eye Liner

Inglot Eyeshadow (Base)

NP Set Liquid Veil in Moscow Pink

Benefit Hellow Flawless Powder Foundation

Chi Chi Shimmer Brick in Rose

Loreal Eyeshadow

Sportsgirl Eyeshadow (Eyeliner)

This is my new Chi Chi Shimmer Brick. It retails from Target for about $20, but I was lucky enough to buy it on sale for half that!! Bargainnn. I absolutely love this. I bought it in "Rose". I absolutely love to have super shiney cheeks (don't care if thats tacky!), and it's great because it's buildable and gives a nice glow and gorgeous colour! Also, the top stripe (lightest colour) can be used as a brow bone/inner corner highlight :)

** As you can see in my FOTD, if you have some pimples, it will make them more noticeable! BUt that's like all shimmer/illuminators!

Usually I get full head of foils, but I haven't coloured my hair in about 3 months!! I really want my hair to grow, and so not only have I stopped bleaching it, but from today I have stopped straightening it! (except for weekends)

My hair dries insanely. It's all frizzy, not curly, not wavy, not straight? it's a mess! So I decided to bobby pin the hell out of it! I haven't perfected it yet, it's uber messy, and I need to loosen up the sides a bit, but you get the look I was going for! Any hair care/style tips would be appreciated!!

The above pictures were obviously taken when I hadn't dressed yet! Hence the no braaaa!! But this is what I wore today. I reckon it's a tad emo ish hahahaha The singlet was an "over sized" singlet, but I do not DO over sized! So I took it in with a sewing machine myself :) V. proud of myself haha

New Wayne Cooper Ankle Boots + FOTD

2010-05-31T03:50:00.000-07:00

Here's my face of the day, I took these pictures with the camera that I got from Target as a replacement to the one that broke - I mentioned that it gave a green tint to everything? You guys can see that right? Compared with my other pictures... I just don't think it really captures what is actually there... Hmmm. You can't even see my eyeshadow! but whatever.

In picture 3 you can see the scar - In a post a while back (april-ish) I explained how I banged my head and ended up in hospital? Well there's the scar! and eww at my bad skin! thats what late nights not taking off your makeup does. yuk yuk yuk.

These are my new pair of booties! I've been looking for some ankle boots for ages, but couldn't find any plain ones (most have studs/ruffles/etc) I'm still not 100% if I love them, I would have prefer one with more detail at the ankle! But they are gorgeous :) and I love the cute little zippers at the back.

Thigh High Boots

2010-05-29T01:59:00.000-07:00

So Im very excited about paying up and taking the Sportsgirl thigh high heeled boots of Lay Buy very soon :) Hopefully before next saturday!!!

I fell in love with them at the store, but I didn't even think about what I could wear them with!! Basically I was thinking a black mini + blazer? But after looking up on the internet I've found there's a tonne of other ways to wear them!

Here are some of my favourites

I'd love to be able to wear them like Kim K does, but .. I'm lacking her booty!

I love Lady GaGa, but no, I'd never wear them like this.

Sportsgirl Eyeshadow Haul + FOTD

2010-05-26T22:35:00.000-07:00

I went into Sportsgirl the other day, tried on some sexy as knee high heeled boots <3 put them on laybuy and was about to walk out before I realised I hadn't checked out their make up section (I always do this before I leave Sportsgirl!) in a huge silver bowl they had all their eyeshadows and I (being a bargain addict) was immediately attracted to red stickers that were pasted on the casing!

Turns out that the eyeshadows, instead of being the marked $4.95 (down from like $7-8 or something?) were actually only 65 cents... How could I resist!!!

So I walked away with five eyeshadows for $3 something!!!

As you can tell, they're all neutrals, I can't really pull off colour! (Although I'm currently trying my luck with navy blue) Anywaysss, here's a FOTD I did using the new colours :)

I used 3 of the 5 colours;

- "Back Up Dancer" Light colour, all over lid to brow bone

- "Super Natural" Medium Brown with Gold, middle and outer lid

- "The Break Up" Darkest Brown, outer v

I then used a shimmer white from a Benefit Palette I have to high light the inner corners and also the brown bone :)

And I used my new Chi Chi Shimmer Brick on my cheeks :) and also a Pink Blush from a Christmas Edition Body Shop Palette.

Haul

2010-05-24T02:45:00.000-07:00

Helloooo :) I had an absolute fabulous weekend! my feet caiiiinnn though! I definitely have to invest in those clear sticky things that you put in heels! Well a while ago I bought some ripped Hurley jeans, but because my camera wasn't working I wasn't able to share them with you! So here's just a little post about a few of my new itemsss,

Playboy Bra Collection + Update +Recs??

2010-05-10T22:15:00.000-07:00

I'm so un inspired and un motivated by what I should be filling my blog with these days! There's like a tonne of pictures from last weekend, and I really wanted to post them because I love hearing about other people's weekends, but Cristina from BarbieLuvsMac (Who doesn't love her blog!?) shared too much information with bloggers and now some (as in a couple of jealous people!) have turned against her and been saying bad stuff to her, and so she's stopped blogging! :( Devo'd!

Anyways, so the point is, is I don't want to discuss what I do on weekends, because I know not everyone has the same sort of life style that I do! and some people may be against it, or whatever! Anyways...

I'm obsessed with Playboy Bras!! I know that "Playboy" as a brand may be seen as tacky/slutty or "demoralising" but their bra's fit me so well! I'm a size 8D/DD - depends if there's padding involved ;) - and like seriously, try finding pretty bras that are 8D!! Impossible!! I also think their bra's are kinda cuteee :) So last week I purchased matching bra/undie combo (I know not a very good photo, hard to take photo's of bras!)

Bra $70

Bottoms $30 (Cant believe I paid that for underwear... Dummb!)

I also purchased a bunny kit! haha bit of a impulse buy! It was $49.95 and I just think it's way cute! I loveee going to dress up/pimps n hoes parties, so this kit might come in handy :)

And here's my lovely collection of my other playboy bras :)

I know it's weird having a post about bras! It's not like I'm going to post like all my bras haha last post I told you about how my brother borrowed a camera from school? Well I took a picture of the black/white stripped playboy combo, and got creative and tried taking pictures of the other ones :) I was a tad bored!

My mate had an assignment to just take lots of photo's of anything! He took like a bazillion of myself, my mum, my cat, his friends, streets, buildings, EVERYTHING, got annoying! But yeah here's a photo of me he took, it didn't really turn out how he wanted it to though lol

He's gay by the way, so he's very creative and he see's girls differently and everything! He's basically like a sister, but a very judgemental one!

I have alot of Clarins Skincare Product Reviews coming up! I'm obsessed with their Hydra Matte Lotion :)

But I'm looking for a good rec for a hydrating serum! not moisturizer, just serum!

Ohh, and have to show you my new $100 pleather jacket from Miss Shop at Myers :)

OOTD + Rubi Shoes Boo Boo!

2010-05-06T18:10:00.000-07:00

Goodmorning! Thank God Its Friday! :) Excited for tomorrow night, I'm planning on wearing those high waist shorts that I pictured in my previous post, but I'm trying to decide how to dress them up! I'm even thinking stockings? It'll be about 12degrees, so it's cold! But I don't think I'm overly keen on stockings/short shorts combo, left alone high waist shorts/stockings combo! Guess I'll man up and deal with the cold haha

Here's an outfit of the day from, yesterday? Or the day before? Uhhh, seems like my days are all running together!! Not a very exciting OOTD, jeans and Dotti military type jacket (last year).

Note the shoes! They're $20 from Rubi Shoes (hella cheap!) but you'd expect them to last atleast one wear, right?

Well they broke in town! When I was walking. Excellent. It was pissing down with rain aswell. I went back to Rubi Shoes (sans receipt) and they were like "What do you expect me to do about that?" I just blankly stared and asked for the Customer Service number and left.

I mean, I'd worn them once, as in that day. And they broke? And the SA was like "They're $20..." and I'm like Yes, But they should last more than 3 hours!

I'm a student, I don't have money to just buy another pair, and why the fuck would I want another pair of shitty shoes that are possibly going to break on me? ARE YOU KIDDING!

I've actually had like a black pair from Rubi Shoes before, for work (waitressing), which is walking up and down and up and down etc, and they never broke! After a few months of wearing them for 20 hours per week, my toe did start to make a hole, but like the sole didn't just rip off!

So over it, but I will be ringing up and complaining. They should have a better policy.

Look how crazy wavy the rain made my hair haha

I have a love/hate relationship with winter. It'd be more love/love if I had my lisence! I know, I could've had it about 3 years ago, I'm slack!

Has anyone been dissatisified with customer service/a product/company policy and complained??

If I do call up Rubi Shoes Customer Service, I think it's because I'm being spitefull, I mean honestly I really don't care that a $20 pair of shoes broke within 3 hours, it's just that I had to walk around town in them and to school! It's the "principle" of the matter haha or whatever the saying is!

2010-05-05T20:32:00.000-07:00

I have been going into town (clubbing? don't know what people over seas call it!) every weekend, and it seriously wrecks me !! I'm one of those people who start getting ready at 5pm, Pre Drinks at 7pm at friends, Town by 11pm, and I won't get home until 10am the next morning!! Blaaa, so I spend the weekend recovering instead of doing my homework or blogging :(

BUT I've managed to finish a whole term in school! I'm so proud of myself, as you may have notice I start things, but never really finish them!! I was doing 4 subjects, but I dropped Maths, so now I'm doing 3, the good news is is that I'm aceing them :D

If you read my last post, I was explaining how my friend dropped my camera into a mug of water and I had to get another one, but the new one turned everything green! I pretty much refuse to use it because I don't like the green tinge, but my brother brought home this all hi tech and spesh camera from school, amd omg if he knows I've been using it he's gonna cut sick haha

I took this photo with the camera that was dropped into the mug of water LOL as you can see it works, but with like a special effect-y type look (reminds me of the special settings like Sepia, etc) I turned the dropped-in-water-camera on last week and it kinda works! So I;m gonna take it out this weekend and take some mad photos!

I bought some really cute high waist shorts yesterday from Supre. I know that some people think that Supre is tacky, but quite frankly it's the only store with my size! I know that I look chubby in pictures and stuff, but yeah at Supre I'm at size 3xs in everything, and there's always beautiful clothes in Globalize but THEY NEVER FIT! It's so frustrating.

Anyways, so here are the shortttsss *drum roll*

They were only $35. I'm going to wear them out this Saturday night, I'll take loaddssss of pictures (on mu wicked cool water-stuffed camera) and I'll upload them :) But I'm going to ask my friends first, cos like I mean I'd be cool with them posting pictures of me on websites, buuutttt, I'll ask just incase they're funny about it!

Usually I don't have much time to put much on my cheeks at all, and I've never really layered different blushes or bronzers, usually it's either blush, blush and high light, or just my MAC MSF in Soft and Gentle !! But lately I've been using MAC bronzer in Refined Golden and NARS blush in Deep Throat.

I apply the MAC bronzer first (I always shove a bit on my t zone, but not much cos it has small glitter pigments!!) and then I apply the NARS blushh!! It looks amazing, if I do say so myself :P I'll do an FOTD when I have a decent camera! The bronzer looks dark, it is, but if you apply it with a light hand and slowly build up it's absolutely AMAZING! I'm an NC20 (albiiiii) for reference.

The Body Shop Oil Blotters have been my saviour for yyears. I'm obsessed, no joke, OBSESSED. I've tried every single oil blotter out there, and these are just amazing.

So you could imagine how freaked out I was when I rocked up to the Body Shop with only about 10 sheets left and a big weekend ahead, and they told me they were to be DISCONTINUTED!

Luckily, the assistant was miss-informed, the other oil blotters (one with powder and the plain one without powder) were being discontinued! PHEW!

I have an oily nose (no, not tzone, just nose!) and instead of layering powder to get that horrible cakey look, not to mention that after 12 hours of dancing you get that horrible orangey tinge? well instead of that, I just used an oil blotter every 2-4hours, and touch up with my MAC compact every 6hours!! Love Love Love Love Love Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love LoveLove Love Love Love <33. They're only $4.95 as well! MAC oil blotters are what, like $20 - $30!?

It's Winter in Adelaide right now, and with a new season comes a new foundation routine! I haven't changed up my powder - I love my MAC Select/Sheer Powder in NC20 - but I continually switch my liquid foundations!! I was using Clinique Superfit for most of the Summer, but for Winter I've switched to Rimmel Lasting Finish Foundation in Ivory.

It's not really "switching" because I have used this for about 2 years almost, on and off! I always get compliments using this foundation, and it's absolutely perfect! Looks flawless, and stays put!!

Cons?

It stays put, yes I just said that was pro, but removing it takes a tab more effort than my other foundations, I just have to repeat my cleansing (Cetaphil) once more, and I always make sure I use my Clarins Toner afterwards to make sure eveyrthing's removed!

Also, the colour range is dismal. It has about 5-6 shades, I would like to go to the second shade (I'm the lightest, Ivory, at the moment) but it's too orange! It's a fab foundation, but they need to expand their shade selection!

I'm going to do a separate post about the Clinique + MAC vs Rimmel + MAC foundation routine!!

I've so missed blogging, and honestly want to keep posting!! Ohhh, and incase my followers think I've forgotten them - I haven't!! I've still been reading blogs, I just haven't been commenting often because my computer is so slow!! I have a brother and with that comes with downloading music, and other stuff. Not cool!! Ewww. I should probably delete that from this post, but I won't haha

EOTD + Physicians Formula Baked Eyeshadow Trio

2010-04-09T00:48:00.000-07:00

Recently I've been using the Physicians Formula Baked Eyeshadow Trio in Baked Sands for an everyday neutral look (EOTD below), and I've fallen in love with the colours! So I've decided to up my game and purchase another trio but a darker version, I went for "Baked Smokes". Basically these trio's have a base/lid shade (left), high light (centre) and a liner/crease shade (right). It's basically for those colour-retarded people who can't mix and match shades, like me! It's pretty full proof, they're easy to blend, and I spose they're alike a MAC "frost" type texture, but less soft.. The only downer I have on them is that they run out pretty fast! I haven't used them wet yet, but I'll do it tomorrow :) Maybe then it'll save some shadow seeing as I won't have to use as much!

On sale at Priceline for about $10 - Normally $15ish?

EOTD using Physicians Formula Baked Eyeshadow Trio in Baked Sands

I 've had this palette for almost 3 years now! and haven't actually used it until about a month or so ago! I don't even remember purchasing this ever, maybe a friend gave it to me or something? I never even used shadow until about a year ago!

[click to enlarge]

I apologize for the dodgy pictures - It's half the camera's fault and half because I took the pictures after a 12 hour day! In a few of the pictures you can see the scar I have from hitting my head a few weekends ago, cannot believe it actually scarred :(

+ my eyebrows haven't been waxed in over two weeks because I'm scared it will open up my scar

Clarins Colour Quench Lip Balm + FOTD + Uggies :)

2010-04-07T05:20:00.000-07:00

Yesterday I exchanged a Clarins moisturizer because, after using for 4 weeks (hoping it would get better), it broke me out horribly, but because the moisturizer was $78 and my regular Clarins moisturizer was only $45 I had a few extra dollars to spend. So I purchased this lip balm :) It's less sheer than what I usually go for, but I actually don't mind it. I won't be repurchasing because it's not ultra moisturizing like my regular $10 lip gloss, and it's too dark for me; However, I do reccomend this as it is a beautiful colour! Even though it isn't "solid" like most lip balms, it does dry less shiney than a gloss :) But still has a subtle sheen which is really nice! So if you're not ready for lipstick but don't like have sticky glossy lips, then this might be for you :) It's approximately $26 - I'm shocking with remembering the prices! haha

The above picture was me trying to be all arty haha I was taking it as though I was reading the back sorta thing -Here's what the packaging says about this Lip Balm:

"Fresh, Luminous lip balm in fruit-inspired colours with a sweet fruity aroma and taste. Deeply replenishes lips with soothing moisture for lasting comfort."

Love the scent, taste and colour but like I said before, it's not moisturizing enough for me - but my lips are SUPER dry

Below is my face of the day :) I'm having difficulties with my camera, buttt I was trying to show you the glow on my cheeks, but it didn't show :( ANyways I'm using Chi Chi blush in Burning Up and Revlon Bare It All in 245 Peachy Tease which gives me a really nice glow :) I'll try to get better pictures!!! Still sorting out the settings.....

Mitchdowd Boxers are the BEST! from Myers :D have had these ones since Year Nine, so about 5 years!!!

And each winter I get myself one or two pairs of Cotton On Ugg Boots :) for only $24.95!!! They;re horrible quality and get smelly and dirty and break apart in about a month or two, but like for under $25 and they're way comfy....

New Shoes :)

2010-04-06T01:50:00.000-07:00

Betts had a "Buy One Item, Get The Second Item Half Price" promo,so I decided to take advantage of it! I'm 99% sure that it's still going aswell! So Aussie girls should def make the most of it :) Also, Zu is having the same promotion! And has the cutest (or tackiest? I'm unsure) studded and diamonds clutch!

This pair also comes in dark/moss green, burgundy red, and a deep tan colour, but I chose blue because at the time I was wearing a bright floral dress and these looked AMAZING!! These are probably some of the shortest heels I own, but they're so comfortable - They're also the only non-peeptoe pair I own aswell!

$79.99 - down to $40 :)

My camera is refusing the take good photo's of these black pair, but they're a dark black, and they're not washed out at all! They're too cute! I love straps on heels for when you need to walk fast on a night out without losing your shoe lol

$109.99 (or something close?)

OOTD + Nipple Piercing Opinions?

2010-04-06T00:58:00.000-07:00

Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter!!! I didn't even eat chocolate (well, no more than usual) but I still managed to put on weight?

I'd like to apologize for the pictures, I've never had like a decent camera at all, and my last camera (that has taken 90% of the pictures on my blog) was OKAY until it dropped into the mug of water and went fuzzy! So today I got a new one, took it home and took photos, noticed they were shotty photos, so decided to return the camera, but I had chucked out the receipt in the bin just outside the place I bought it from - TARGET - and they wouldn't let me exchange it because I had no receipt! Even though the guy who served me remembered me from an hour before!!!! So mad.

If anyone has the SANYO IZ-S1275 please tell me which settings are the best!!! Ugghhh

Anyway, my OOTD was taken with my camera phone! I have an LG web slider and it's picture quality is fair dodgy! But I need to update with something! I really used to enjoy blogging, so hopefully I'll get back into it

But the good thing about phone pictures is that they take 2 seconds to upload!!!

I got my nipple pierced on the weekend haha I don't know if it's tacky or not, the concept of it is I guess, but I'm not the sort of girl who gets it pierced and tells everyone about it and whips it out to show it off! I haven't showed anyone! I've noticed however, that when I tell a male friend that I have it pierced the first thing they ask is "Can I see it?". Ewww. No.

Does anyone have their nipple pierced?

Or any opinions from anyone?

2010-04-01T01:16:00.000-07:00

I have been missing in action for almost a whole month! It's bad, I know!

It's not just blogger that I've been slacking on, I'm also way behind in school - I'm seriously on an "E" for Maths! Ah!

I will be blogging after Easter, my friend ruined my camera by drunkingly dropping it into a Schutzenfest mug filled with water.. But she's buying me a new one, soon.

Last weekend was totally heckit for me, I ended up at the Emergency Room at the Royal Adelaide Hospital at 3am on saturday morning after hitting my head on a desk! I had a couple of stitches, which were taken out today, but I now have a lovely black eye and there's still blood in my eye!

Gross, I know! All my foundation is like gone and I'm all spotty cos I've been going out way too often. Next term I'm stopping like everything! On weekends I'm planning on staying home with a study group :) Mmmm.. Perhaps!

Eww and yuck, this is from another night, I'm the blonde in the dark blue dress with a silvery goon sack on my knee!

LOOK AT MY POSTURE!!!!

HELP!!!

It's horrible!

I'm seriously considering a brace?

Easter Holidays started today, so I will definitely be posting more!

The good thing is, is because I've been away for so long, I have loads of things to blog about!

Happy Easter Lovelies x

OOTD + FOTD + Haul

2010-03-04T21:31:00.000-08:00

This is my first ever attempt at wearing a maxi dress! I love them, even though it was a few cm's too long and I had to keep it hitched most of the day with my hand, but they're really comfortable and you don't have to worry about the wind lifting your dress up or anything!

I took my FOTD at the end of the day (4pm) and my hair went crazy cos the wind, but I didn't really do much at the start of the day with it anyway! I literally woke up and shoved it in a crocodile clip :)

Bourjois 10 hour sleep affect foundation

this is a sheer foundation to me, and I don't usually wear sheer foundations or TMs, but my skin was behaving itself today!

I got my hair done the other day (though you can't tell because my hair is so dirty! I haven't washed it since I got it done on Tuesday.. It is currently Friday.. hahaha ewww I know! Anyway, Sarah at If The Shoe Fits... has wonderful, shiney, healthy blah blah blah blonde hair, and she uses the John Freida shampoo and conditioners to maintain it, I'm not sure if I bought the same ones as her (there's like a few different blonde shampoo/conditioners to choose from in the range!) but I bought:

I haven't used them yet (haven't washed my hair duhh) but I've been smelling them non-stop!! They smell gorgeous, like salon brand type scent.. Really nice, and I'm sure once I'm using them just the smell will make me think I'm doing something good for my hair haha They were about $15 each from Woolworths, which is kinda expensive for supermarket shamp/conds!

I also went into Kmart today to buy The Hills Season Five Part 1 on dvd for $19, but they had sold out! After a day! So frustrating!

So I went to JB Hi-Fi instead, and bought it for $25 :)

So excited to watch it!

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!

Haul + OOTD

2010-03-01T22:45:00.000-08:00

Supre

was $28

sale $10

was $9

sale $5

not on sale $28

From Sportsgirl I bought a kabuki makeup brush for $16.95, it's lovely and soft, but sometimes cheaper brushes tend to start soft, then they go all stiff and lose all their bristles/hairs!! So fingers crossed this stays gorgeous!

I usually carry around a mediamakeup powder brush (the handle fell off! ugh) so this will be not only cuter, but more space-saving and convenient!

So excited!!! I also bought Season Five of the Girls of the Playboy Mansion, and I cannot wait to watch it! My whole weekend is gonna be booked up just watching the episodes :)

OOTD March 2nd

Rimmel Haul

2010-02-25T21:09:00.000-08:00

I received some Priceline vouchers in the post the other day. Basically I had like $20 to spend because of the points I have gained from buying from Priceline :) I decided to spend the vouchers as quickly as possible because usually I like wait forever and then forget about them and by the time I find them again, they're invalid!

It was my lucky day! Because Rimmel had a "Buy 2 Get 3rd Free" promotion going on, so the 3 items I bought were:
L to R: Rimmel Exagerate Liquid Liner in Black (HG), Shock Gloss in Clear and Moisture Renew Lipstick in Nude Delight.

Also, if you spent $25+ you also got a free Rimmel makeup bag with 3 extra products!

So in the makeup bag, which was all totally FREE, there was "Lasting Finish Nail Polish in 240 Bling", a "Glam Eyes Mascara in Black" and also a "Soft Kohl Kajal Eye Liner Pencil in Black" !!!

All together now :)

When I got to the counter with my 3 items, and the beauty case with 3 extra items, I only had to pay $8!!! So I got like six items for 8 bucks! So good!

Has anyone tried these items?

Love/Hate?

I have a Rimmel Kohl White Liner, and I use it on my waterline but it's pretty stiff so it's difficult to get on, and when I do manage to apply it, it doesn't last that long!!

However, I absolutely love love love the Exageratte liquid eye liner!

I've used it for about 5 years now on and off, and it's just one that I can always go back to and have no problems using it! The applicator is great because it gives a nice strong solid line, and if you apply it harder it will be dense, and with a soft hand the line will be leaner!

OOTD + Forever New Dress and Playsuit

2010-02-24T19:57:00.000-08:00

How insanely awesome is this picture!! I walked out of my room at 7am to wash my face and it was dark, came back and the sun was like BAM!! I also took a picture of my OOTD in the sun cos it looked pretty!

OOTD

Skirt from Pilgrim, Playsuit worn as a top from Forever New.

Forever New Playsuit

$25

(Buy one sale item, get the other half price!)

I bought the green dress with the daimantes (below) from Forever New, and then the lady at the counter said that I could get an extra sale item with an extra 50% off!!! I couldn't say no, I wanted to buy another dress, but they didn't have ANY styles in my sizee ugh. I tried on the playsuit, but I actually thought it was a dress!! It actual looks like a dress!

Forever New Dress

On sale for $99.95. In my opinion it looks kinda tacky like on a coat hanger and all, but when I put it on it looks so nice!!! This is one of only two strapless dresses that I wear!!! It has major suport and it cinches in at the waist and it's just lovely! It's not something I'd usually wear, but yup!!!

I couldn't be fucked trying it on, but yeah. It sucks though cos I thought it'd match with the green clutch that I bought the other day, but it totally clashes! grrr.

E/FOTD + OOTD

2010-02-22T22:56:00.000-08:00

I've said this before, but I'm really lacking in inspiration for posts!

I went into town and bought this clutch from Live for $40

BORING, I know haha I think I'm probably going to maybe be buying a really pretty dress tomorrow! It's from my Forever New and it's on sale for $99 It's just that my boobs look big in it, but squished? Dunno, it's weird!

I'm bringing my brother into town so I can get his opinion on it! My friend and the shop people said it looked nice, but my brother always gives an absolute honest opinion! and he's like gay so he knows what suits and what doesn't haha

and OMG the salon that my eyebrow waxer works at, isn't there anymore!!! IT's closed down!!! and my eyebrows and like fully spastic at the moment cos it's been like 3weeks! and I went on Vogue Forum for eyebrow waxer recs in Adelaide, and basically everywhere else has changed hands or whatever.

so my hair's yellow, my eyebrows are fuzzy, and I got to school late! not a good day!

OOTN: fringe + QUESTION

2010-02-19T21:01:00.000-08:00

Hey guys,

I'd just like to say that I'm sorry for all these boring posts Ive been posting.. I have like a bloggers-block and can't think of what to write about, and when I do think of something to write about I can't be bothered cos I'm too tired from school!!

Last night was the Fringe Opening Night where these is usually a really good street party, but last night was so lame and the majority of people there were like these 15 year olds in heels getting drunk and bumping into each other.

I can't stand town, I'm 19 and I look like I'm 16, but the youngest guy that offered to buy me a drink was 23 years old!! uhhhhh.

Sorry about the quality of the pictures, blogger has made tham super dooper blurry! The first picture is what I actually wore, and the second picture is what I was going to wear (black top, black shorts, pink heels) I decided to go casual cos I cbf going clubbing afterwards! I just went to the Woolshed and RoseMont and talked and played pool :)

* please excuse my bra showing!

Question:

If a guy approaches you and starts talking to you, and offers to buy you a drink, but you are not interested in him at all, should you decline?

should you accept the drink, because he obviously came over to talk to you because he wants to hook up, therefore he's just using you, so you may aswell use him? even if you don't plan on hooking up with him?

does that make any sense?

OOTD: boring

2010-02-17T01:57:00.000-08:00

haha I'm so baby-faced for my ageeeee!!! It was another hot day today, and I saw people in jeans, heels and floaty tops! Im like AHH how can those people do it? I'd feel suffocated in jeans on a day like today, and my feet would sweat like crazy and the heels would just drop off! I don't get it!

Shortie Shorts BUDGET Haul

2010-02-17T01:45:00.000-08:00

Supre is having like a massive clearance of shorts at the moment! I know that the majority of Aussie girls think Supre is cheap or tacky or whatever ("Supre SLuts" ???) but they seem to be the only denim shorts that fit me perfectly! I'm not ashamed to admit that I love their basics like singlets and t-shirts, and I use their plain black tights for excerising and for my work uniform when I was a waitress.

I would love to be able to afford all of my clothes from places like Sportsgirl or Globalize, but I can't spend $50-$100 per singlet! Even if Icould, most of my basics would be from Supre anyway! The size range it awesome, and even though they fade quickly and get distored, they're cheap so you can buy a new one every few months anyways!

Anyways, The first two shorts from Supre were only $5 each!!

The one on top is a xxxs black pair, then the blue pair is an xxs, and the bottom black pair is xxs, yet they all fit perfectly? but they have like difference between like 5cm-10cm.. WEIRD

The denim pair below was $38 and the black stretchy pair were $10 :)

The black singlet with sequened detail is a Billabong singlet from Jetty Surf for $49.95. That's probably the max I'd pay for a singlet or tee!!! and the grey over sized t-shirt was only $7.50 from Supre :)

I have a collective haul from weeks ago but I cbf uploading all the pictures!!! and hauls get boring after a while!!! so I'll post a OOTD/FOTD using some stuff that I bought in this post :)

Does anyone know the brand Hurley?

It's like a skatey type brand? Anyways, Ive been obsessed with their hoodies for years (they have xs which are tiny! most surfy/skatey hoodies are too big for short people like me) and now they do TRACKIESSSS!!!!

Question:

I know in America trackies are fine, but for European people, would you been seen out and about in trackies? Like wear them to school??

American Apparell Hoodie + MAC Fix

2010-02-11T22:01:00.000-08:00

$61 from American Apparel.

I bought my second Fix + !! I have stated in previos posts or in comments on other bloggers pages that I didn't like this, but I've started using this with just powder foundation, and omfg it's brilliant!
I'll do a post about my powder foundation routine :) I used to just use powder to set, but now I'm using it as my all over foundation!! Total powder convert!
It's only $27, which is so reasonable! Rose Water from Jurlique is $37 and you don't get as much!

How does everyone use their MAC Fix + ?

Refresher?

To set?

Blend powder?

for more Intense Eyeshadow?

Tuesdays OOTD + FOTD

2010-02-11T00:36:00.000-08:00

This was Tuesday's OOTD/FOTD, I had Maths and Chemistry so I decided to sorta like dress a bit "smartish" :) lol..... Hence the vest!

[click to enlarge]

It was 40 degrees that day, fuck the heat wave!!! and I had woken up at 6am, makeup on by 6.30, taking pictures at 7.30am, and my nose was already oily! I love summer, but my oily nose gets like a trillion times worse in dumb weather like this.

This was my eyemakeup.

I wanted to use the navy blue(bottom right), but instead, cos I wasn't focused, i dipped my brush in the dark green (top right)!! I tried putting navy ontop of it, but didn't really work, so I just stuck to the green lol

Australis Palette $12ish

Question:

In Year 12 (which is the last year of high school, I'm not sure if other countries call them "forms" of something?) in English, for an essay, is a limit of 1000 words too short?

I have an assignment, and 1000 words is the limit, it just seems so short! I have 1200ish, but thats with editing! Like how are people supposed to be creative if there's a really small limit! UGH. That's why I hated school, STRUCTURE! If I want to write like 3000 words I should be able to!

My teacher, who hates me (cos Im in a "pose" and apparently haven't grown up and should think about how other's "perceive us"), is like, "If it's even one word over 1000, I won't read it.".

FOTD with my kitty catty! + Mini Haul

2010-02-11T00:10:00.000-08:00

Hey Guys,

Today I didn't go to school because I had Maths and Chemistry, it's really over whelming because I missed the first week of school, which meant I missed about 5hours of work on both subjects! I'm behind, and I went to class on Tuesday, but I just got so frustrated that I didn't know the basics cos I missed out on the orientation week! ugh. So Im going to the tutorial centre tmoz and they'll teach me everything so I'm up to speed!!

Anyways!!! I called up my friend and decided to go shopping instead. It was a weird day, like 35+ degrees, but it rained? So I was in thongs and a dress, carrying an umbrella, and slipping all over the concret! I'm not sure what would've been more frustrating; slipping all over the concret with frizzy hair, or going to Maths and Chem class.

I didn't buy much at all, just these sandals (or "flip flops" as Natalie from Beauty Has No Label calls them LOL I love how different countries have different words! like we call rubber sandals "thongs" and thong in England means g-string; pretty sure?)

And this dress from Supre. It was only $15, score!!

Ima wear this dress with thes new shoes I bought from Betts a few days ago...

... So cute :)

But this is cuter!!!

This is my gorgeous kitty cattennn Noonie! I absolutely love her, even though she's overweight, way selfish and only friendly when she feels like attention.
Sorry my face is like munted in all of these, but I was like laughing half the time! She's too cute! Look at her face she wants to get away! hahaha

She has a foot fetish!! hahaha No joke, I didn't like poke her with my foot or anything, she was just like rubbing her face in my foot WTF!

Just some other non-noonie pictures :)
