Mustard long sleeved top - Primark
Waistcoat - Electric Gypsy
Jeans - Dorothy Perkins
Shoes - Converse
Necklace - ASOS



It's hilarious how awkward I am in front of a camera that I have no control over.

I was going to wear pinstriped trousers, but decided not to - the place we went to was more casual than that :-) My family (all 16 of us) went out for dinner to celebrate my eldest sister's birthday, and my dad's birthday.

On other news, I've been obsessing over makeup, which is unlike me - I usually go barefaced, with the occasional red lipstick. Even then, that's usually the only makeup I wear, meep. Now it's the whole shebang - concealor, foundation, blusher, highlighter, etc. So far it's a bunch of things from Benefit - their base stuff has quite a good reputation, though I wasn't aware of their actual cosmetics until recently!

Forgot to mention - my Coastal Scents haul is here! I bought their HD foundation, which seems too light for my current skintone :-( gutted :-( The reviews did talk about how it would suit my skintone - around a MAC NC30-35ish. I don't actually know my MAC number thingamabob, just gauging it against my friends here.



Still trying out the eyeshadows - so pigmented! The 88 Warm Palette is sooo pretty. Loves it - the hot pots are about the size of a dime, or if you're in the UK, a bit bigger than a 5p piece :-)


My current makeup collection - lots of lipsticks which I rarely wear, heh.


How about you, reader? Are you into makeup? What's your go-to look? What products do you use daily/for special occasions? Do share! :-)

  1. I love the mustard long-sleeved shirt. Duh. Oh and I LOVE make-up. I wear a smokey during all occasions, but sometimes I will go to a red lip and bare eye make-up with lots of mascara.

  2. haha, I love it too. Saw it in Primark and grabbed it to wear with an orange plaid top I was already nursing in my arms!

    I'm still trying to get a hang of the smokey eye, it's lots more difficult than a simple red lip!
