First of all, i want to thank every single one of my amazing followers for just being so spectacularly brilliant!

Secondly, like the new look? I haven't yet finished but it's pretty close - i'm turning over a new leaf for 2010, starting with a blog refurb as well as loads and loads of posts!

And lastly i want to wish you all a very merry christmas and a happy new year and i hope you all have fun spending time with the '3 Fs' - family, friends and food. Yum :)

How cute is that bear? Awhhhhhh :)

Anyway, many posts coming up soon - i have a mental list of about 20 different things i want to do as for some odd reason, inspiration has recently flown to me like a bug to a light bulb :)

Lily Allen for Chanel

I love Lily Allen and as soon as i saw these ads for Chanel in Vogue, i thought i'd show you them!

These are quite possibly one of my favorite ad campaigns ever, well done Chanel :)

Do these pictures remind you of anyone? :)

I think they may have taken quite a bit of inspiration!

Have a lovely day :)

November Favorites

Is it December already?! Jeeeeez, November has just flown by!

Here are my favorite things that i have been using frequently throughout the month.

[clockwise from top] Make-up Bag, Maybelline Pulse Perfection Mascara, Natural Collection Apple Blossom lipstick, Primark hairclips, Simple hydrating light moisturizer, Tresemme Salon Finish hairspray.

Claire's Accessories Pink Make-up Bag

(oh my god! how cute is this?!)

I picked this up on Saturday whilst out shopping. I'm not really a fan of Claire's as i find most of their products bad quality and overpriced. But as soon as i layed my beady little eyes on this makeup bag, i just picked it right up and waltzed over to the counter without any hesitation! It's big enough to fit my top-up essentials in, is waterproof, zips up and was £5.

Maybelline Pulse Perfection Vibrating Mascara

I have always been a bit iffy about plastic wands - i've always been a brush girl - but after given this mascara at the Maybelline event i went to a while ago it has been a staple product in my daily routine. It's a tad tricky to get hang of and takes a bit longer to apply in the mornings but boy it's worth it! My lashes are deffinately longer but if more than two coats are applied it can become a little thick and clumpy.

It's very expensive for a drugstore mascara - priced at a very steep £15 but in my opinion it's worth it!

Pearl clips from Primark

I've been wearing these clips almost every single day this month! I love pearls at the moment, i think they're classy and very elegant - even if they are from Primark and were only £1.50 :)

Tresemme Salon Finish Extra Hold Hairspray

I am really really loving this hairspray at the moment! It keeps my hair in place for ages with only the tiniest bit, smells okay (which is more than i could say for most hairsprays), and doesn't leave my hair crispy or greasy. The price was quite reasonable for a hairspray - it was about £5 for 500ml. I've been using this everyday without fail.

Simple's Kind to Skin Hydrating Light Moistuizer

I've been using this moisturizer day and night for the past 2-3 weeks. I do not have sensitive skin but i was feeling that with all of the chemicals and different products i was piling on my face it needed a bit of a rest. So i picked up this moisturizer for under £3 and my skin has improved so much, it is actually unreal. It's really light, keeps my skin hydrated and supple and is perfect for a base under makeup too.

Absolutely spiffing, darling :)

Natural Collection lipstick in Apple Blossom

After hearing about this lipstick on various blogs and YouTube videos, i trundled off to boots and bought me one of these for £1.95 and i have to say i am very very impressed of the quality for such a little price! It's a really nice nude and you can guiltlessly apply it throughout the day without worrying about it costing you loads to replace!

[sorry for the rubbish picture! the light had gone by the time i took this, and the colour looks a little off - it looks so orange here but it's just a really nice nude!]

Well, that's all folks!

Have a lovely day
