Pre-Planned Fringe OOTN

Hey Guys, Sup!?

So not this weekend, but next weekend, is the Adelaide Fringe for 2010! Iam so excited! It's just like a street party in town in which pretty much every teen goes! It's like a facebook party, like you see people you haven't seen for months, even years! It's awesome :) Basically everyone just gets drunks, goes to clubs, or hangs out on the street or goes to HJs on the corner :) It's lovelyyyyy,

In Australia at the moment, I'm not sure about everywhere else in the world, but like this whole "Sailor" patterned-ness clothing and what not is very much in. I'm not into fashion, like if something looks shit on me (FLORALS!) I won't wear it, but I can totally pull off black/white or blue/white stripes!

I bought this body suit a few months back, and I can't really wear it every day cos it's so revealing! I've tried it with singlets, but it just isn't the same! So if you don't like boobie pics, don't look!

 

How pretty is the cute little buttons on the top? I need a better bra so that my boobs are like phwoar! :)

I'm wearing flats, you can see in the first picture, but I'll probs end up wearing heels, especially cos flats make my calves look huge, Im not even kidding! Look at them! If you didn't notice the hugeness the first time round, seriously go double check!

I'm thinking red heels :)

Or I have new satin pink peep toes!? That I'll post in my next haul :) Which'll be in a few hours!

??

And what should I do bout accesories?

What's yours favourite event/holiday of your year?

Avatar

I saw Avatar last year, and I was going to do a review basically saying it was a good movie, but the steamy make out scene with the creepily tall blue people was weird.

I was on The Boobs and they posted something I found hilarious!

It's funny cos it's true...

Studded Heels + Lauren Conrad: Sweet Little Lies

I'm having a night in tonight because I started school today, a week later than all the other students, so the teachers have piled all this homework on me! ugh.

Good news is, I bought some to die for heels today! They're from Betts, and they fit so well! Usually I have issues with heels without straps cos when I go out on the town my feet sweat (ewww) and so it's hard to get the shoes from slipping off! I haven't tested these out yet, but they're nice and snug, and like the heel of the shoe, sorta like folds over the heel of your..umm..heel.. So descriptive!

I also purchased the second book of Lauren Conrads "L.A. Candy" trilogy! I didn't really like the first one, but it's just so funny how all the people/actors(??) on The Hills, are like "interpreted" into the characters in her novels hahahaha According to Lauren there's no connection, but whatever, read the books and watch The Hills, and you'll understand where I'm coming from!

She either did it on purpose, or she lacks imagination. But it's totally normal for Authors to involve real life characteristics of people into their stories!

I purchased these 2 notebooks from Cotton On for only $9.95 each! My fvaourite is the zebra print one :) And I'm currently using it for English woop woop!

I think I'ma go back tomorrow and buy another one, it's like this french magazine black and white typed theme notebook! Really cute!

I really wanted to get these 2 pairs of Bardot jeans, but I spent my $$$ on... Something? I'm not sure? My money just gooooessss!!! But they were $139.95 each, and they fit perfectly!! I seriously would've been so psyched if I could have afforded them both!!

I have like a haul to post aswell, it's mainly clothes, and like accessories, and random stuff :) Hopefully I'll be having more of these "in" nights so I can actually post something useful! (:

Lipgloss Of The Week

I have a tonne of glosses I need to get through, so to help me out, Ima nominate one of my lipglosses each week to be my favourite :) And through out the whole week, I'll use it!

This week it's Rimmel Vinyl Gloss.

I'm unsure of the name/shade because I purchased it over a year ago! It's still in tip top condition.

It's moisturizing, glossy without being sticky, gorgeous light pink colour, and smells like strawberry/cola Chupa Chups! Really lovely stuff!

It's about $10 from Priceline, Target, etc...

Currently Listening To: Golden Ticket by Manchester Orchestra

FOTD + New Dresses

 Hi Lovelies!

This is my first FOTD since my Rhinoplasty, so be nice :)

I actually still  have bruising around my right eye, and a little bit around my left too. I've been reading all over the internet(how legit), and most bruising subsides within 2 weeks! and some people don't even get bruising!

I don't know why I'm not healing fast :S I mean, I'm not a smoker, I drink once a week, I eat okayish...

The results don't show until 3months post-op, but seeing as my healing sucks mine will probably take forever. Ugh. But I can see a difference already! I've been looking through pictures, and I don't have a hump, it's just the tip I'm not happy about.. But the doctor says it'll go down within a few months!

Apparently it's like 70% of the swelling goes down in 3months, and the last 30% within a year!

*I cant smile properly! I cant feel my nose, so like I feel retarded when I smile?

I also bought 2 new dresses today.

This one is from Myer. It's by Miss Shop (they used to make the best jeans, now they suck), It looks pretty dodgy hanging on the coat hanger, but I actually really like it!

I believe that my best asset is my boobs, and so I rarely cover them up in Summer (shhh), but with this I feel sexy enough in it that I don't even mind it's not low cut!

I like the 3/4 sleeves and the length of the dress is perfect!

Price: $59.95

This dress is from ICE, and I rarely ever find anything in there that I like, but I've been looking for a dress like this for ages! I can layer it with a blazer, or wear it over a bikini to the beach! <3 <3

The only issue is, is that the back is just crochet/lacey stuff! and it goes all the way down to your bum! I tried on the small, which was too big, and I walked out and asked my friend to get me a XS, I turned around and she was laughing that she could see my g-string! It was like bright yellow aswell! But the XS you can't see my underwear, but you can see my bra? But that's cool cos I have pretty bras lol

Price: $35.95

Question:

Are any of you major label whores?

As in, you won't buy anything from "cheap"(ice) stores?

What about accessories?

I know I used to be, but my brother had this friend, and she used to shop in every single store, even if she hated it! and she always looked gorgeous! and my favourite clothes of hers were actually from shitty places, not Sportsgirl or Myer, or even Supre, but like MCL and stuff!

Maybe I just have bad taste lol

Mary-Kate or Ashley?

Question:

Are you a Mary Kate or Ashley girl?

I love them both, but Mary-Kate is my favourite :)

Hair Dilemna: Split Ends!

I purchased the Tigi Bed Head Ego Boost Split End Mender (phew, long name!) from Price Attack today. It was $27.95, although I looked online and I could've got it for like $20, but I wanted it now. My hair needs it.

I have dry, split ends, and I don't want to cut them off. I know that's bad, since there's not quick fix for split ends, basically you have to cut them off, orelse you risk them creeping up higher and cracking the whole hair shaft. But it's a risk I'm willing to take, in order to get long (ish) hair!

Hope this works :) Has some good reviews!

"Boost that ego and save your hair! Ego Boost Split End Mender & Leave in conditioner will seal, smooth and protect your hair. As a split end mender, apply to ends. As a leave in conditioner, smooth over fly-aways as needed. Use on wet or dry hair."

According to reviews I've been reading, it's great for touch ups during the day to control frizziness. It also seals the cuticle, making it seem like the hair is healthy.

Apparently it also helps the hair condition, but I'm a tad skeptic because my ends are fried, I think they're beyond help. But we'll see how it goes! I'll give it a few more weeks, and if my ends are still unmanageable, I'll give them the chop!

          The Tigi Bed Head Split End Mender will be replacing my Schwarzkopf Bonacure Repair Rescue Sealed Ends. I liked the way the Schwarzkopf Sealed Ends made my hair feel, it felt like ti was being nourished, but after using the whole tube, my hair hasn't improved. I do like the product, and I might re-purchase because it isn't bad, but in the mean time I'm trying new products to see if I can find something that will help my ends.

Has anyone suffered from split ends, then over come it?

Are there specific products you use to help prevent them?

Or even a cure?

          I've been using the Redken Extreme shampoo and conditioner, and it's helped my hair, but I think I've had enough protein, and I'm going to start dying my hair again, so I need some new products!

I'm trying to find out recs from other blondes, but haven't come across any recs I think that would suit my hair type yet. So I purchased the Herbal Essences Long Term Relationship duo.

I wanted to try the Herbal Essences Breaks Over duo, but they didn't have any. Grrr.

I don't think the scent is nearly as good as Herbal Essences Hello Hydration, but apparently it's more moisturizing!

Any recs for moisturizing products?

I'm looking for a spray leave in conditioner!

But it has to be able to be sprayed onto dry hair, aswell as wet.

Lush Eau Roma Water: Useless?

I first discovered Lush in 2008 whilst I was living in Brisbane.

I didn't really have much interests in it then, and I don't have much interest in it now.

I mean, the bath bombs are kinda cool, but it's disappointing when the bubbles only last not even a minute. And the shower gels smell great, but they leave my skin feeling dry. The face masks seem nurturing because they look like someone's made the stuff in their own back yard, but they've done nothing for my skin.
It could just be that I'm used to the harsh chemicals and what not that's in today's societys body products.

Honestly, for me, the only good thing about Lush is the fact that they don't test on animals, and that most of their ingredients for their products are natural. Even though I spy SLS in the Snow Fairy! De-Dow.

I've only tried a couple of products, but what I've tried I've been disappointed with. I don't think the Lush craze will last much longer.. There are cheaper alternatives out there, or you could just make it yourself.

They do have a good concept though!

Anyways

I just poured my Eau Roma Water into my Natio Face Mist (empty) spray bottle, because the Eau Roma Water wasn't doing much as a toner on my skin. So I'm just going to use it as a mist :) The bottle it came with doesn't mist over the face, it kinda just shoots out in a general direction.

It's usefull now :)

Ps. Snow Fairy is the best scented shower gel ever created!

What is your take on Lush?

Products you Love? and Hate?

 I understand that 99% of you will love Lush, and hardly anyone will agree with me :)

However, there are bloggers out there that haven't jumped on the Lush bandwagon!
