Hi everyone, Sorry I missed yesterday, im not to good with thi blogging everyday thing, haha. anyways todays post is a post im very exited about it my first impressions on the urban decay Naked 3 palette, now this post is litraly a first impressions as I got home from work 45 mins ago and thats when I opened this up and god im already in love with it. 

First of packaging. I like the outer packaging and the palette packaging better than the other too as this one is card board packaging with the colours in the palette on it, is it just me or dose everyone else like that. also I like how they have maid this palette bumpy and my favorite colour rose gold. 

this palette also comes with a sample of all the urban decay primer poshions. I love urban decay pp anyways as it makes your eyeshadow stay all day with no faiding no creasing and no going anywere, if you dont have it you need it!!!

now as for inside this palette, we have a brush which is nice its quite like the one we get in naked 2 but this one is better quality and nicer shape. you also get your 12 colour like the other palettes ranging from the light to the dark. this palette is more rose toned and I really like all the colours way more than the other two, dont get me rong though i love love love my other 2 nakeds but you know I think everyones the same when they get a new palette and there like this is amazing my new favorite. but yes the colours in this are beautiful and I cant wait to were them, I wont be wering them tomorrow though as im going to be using some bright colour which may be a bit ott for work but strate after work im going to be doing something every exiting so I need to look a sertin way, You will learn more about that at some point though but all you need to know now is to please wish me luck!.

so this palette is avalable now, not sure on stock but you may want to grab it as soon as you can because like the other naked palettes it is highly wanted and its not going to stay in stock for long. 

avalable at urban decay websight, debenhams, beauty bay, house of fraser, sophora and urban decay counters. 

this palette retails for £37 

so what urban decay naked palette do you like best? I will be doing a comparasing post in a week or so after xmas though.

Hi everyone, so I have decided insted of the post I was going to do today which was going to be a christmas gift guide for men, that will be up tomorrow but I have decided to do a post about my breakfast at tiffanys photoshoot. 

A few weeks ago me, Fiona (photographer) Charlie (model) and Amy who is a designer and my best friend were doing a poison ivy photoshoot in the amazing emp studio. I was doing the makeup in the makeup room when Amy came in saw a canvice of Audry in breakfast at tiffanys and said to us that it would be good to re create that, me and charlie agreed and taked to fiona who liked the idea as well, so a date was set for the shoot to be the 8th of december which also would be our last shoot of the year, because as you may know im very christmasy and very family orintated so like to spend as much time with them in december that I can. 

Anyways on the 8th of december we hedded to glasgow all exited for our shoot, I did the makeup and hair and Amy styled And the amazing charlie turned in to Audry. Keith and Fiona were our photographers and I think they have captured the image to a T. Anyways the picture in this post is my favorite from the shoot and my mum might be getting it put on canvice for my 18th.

Blogmas #9 | Morgan Taylor Nail Polish

Hi Everyone, I have got a review for you today, On the Morgan Taylor nail polish brand, Its a newish brand that came out this year and its avalable at sallys and I think thats the only pleace its avalable in the UK.

Morgan Taylor nail polishes are 15ml and have a cool shape bottle and are a high end brand retailing for like £10 to the public and like £4.75 to sallys traid members. Morgan Taylor have a big range of polishes including many glitter polishes which I love. They are very fast drying and dont chip much but if your wering glitter nail polish its best to put on a top coat. I personaly have 3 jobs and all my jobs are chalanges for nail polishes, so today at work I did chip it a little and ended up picking at my nails all day, this always happens though but I have tried nail polish remover with asitone on this glitter but its very very hard to remove. 

the two colours I own so far are Whos that girl? and new york state of mind. there both purply of corce as everyone knows I love purple. Out of them both I like new york state of mind the best and its the one that didnt chip at all so I love it even more. 

these polishes are full of glitter and are very opace neeing just 2 coats to get a nail of full on glitter. Im personaly very very in love with this brand of nail polish, its amazing and I think there glitter polishes are so much better then OPI. (please donk kill me though its just me personal opinion)

anyways thats my day 9 of blogmas, hope you enjoyed, if there is anything you really want to see in blogmes let me know. as i'm starting to run out of post ideas but I have enothe idease I hope for this week. Its only 15 days till christmas and 14 more days of blogmas and i'm very exited, who else is exited?

our hanging star. 

Blogmas #8 | Stocking Filler Gift Guide

Hi everyone, Todays blogmas is a little bit late but its still the 8th so its ok, I have been at a photoshoot all day so been a bissy bee. todays shoot was amazing and was inspired by Audry Hepburn, If you want to see the pictures they will be up on my facebook later this week. I also will post a few on my instagram. 

anyways today's post is my second gift guide of the year and its my stocking filler gift guide. I have only added 3 things to this gift guide but today I have found a tone of cute things but I do think stockings are not things you can really plan. 

1. China Glaze christmas collection. My dad has bought some of these for my mums stocking with my help there beautiful colours this year and I really want some in my stocking as well as another brand of nail polish which im going to be talking about in tomorrows blog post. china glaze is on 3 for 2 in sallys right now and retail around the £4.50 (traid). 

2. Urban Decay Glitter eyeliners. these are a love of mine right now, I own 2 and there amazing, the new formula is brill. these are around £14 but are a great product. 

3. Lynx this is just in general any deodurant, mens or femails. great thing to put in a stocking as everyone needs deodurant. fairys in price though. 

4. Fluffy Socks. a must have for any stocking our stockens are never compleat with out fluffy socks, my mum always gets ours at primark, reatail about £2 

5. Hotel Chocolate raindeer, these are really cute and hotel chocolate is one of the best kind of chocolate in my opinion. not too sure how much these are but they do different sizes. 

so thats pretty much it the rest is really up to you, if depends on what you find and who your buying for. for example I have asked for a owl contact lens case as I have contacts. 

anyways my next gift guide will be up probably wednesday but I will see you tomorrow with my next blogmas post. x

we change our colour scheme every year but for the black tree I love this red tree we have going on this year, my white tree I really really love the light blue scheme!

Both when I was little of corce I loved reciving but now i'm older I love going out and picking the perfect gift for everyone, But I also love Reciving the gifts people have selected spechaly for me. 

To mince pie or not to?

I love Mince pie so much, but I cant eat them as im glutin intolorant. my mums going to try make me glutin free mince pies though so hopfully they work.

Chicken, Peas, carrots, brussles (minging), stuffing (mums makeing me glutin free), for pudding I ushaly make a triffle even though I dont eat triffle. Actully I now cant basicly eat any puddings so we will see.

Open Pressents before or after lunch?

Before always before. We wake up at about half 7 this year were getting up at 8 as my sister is now back at home and is refusing to get up at half 7. so we get up at 8 go and get our stocking and go to my mum and dads room. we sit there and open our stockings on mum and dads beds then we have breakfast and open the pressents under the tree, after that we have christmas dinner.

Blogmas #4 | Urban decay Lipstick in Shame Review

Hi Everyone, for todays Blogmas i'm going to be reviewing the Urban Decay Lipstick in Shame. This lipstick is a really great lipstick for winter so its a wonderful  lipstick to featcher in my Blogmas series. 

the urban decay lipsticks are very moisturising and easy to apply even though I would defently recomend using a lipbrush and a lipliner with this lipstick as it is dark and dose blead without a lipliner. 

The packaging for this lipstick is lovelie, its king of a purply gun metal kind of colour which its like shiny like a mirror, its a lovely shape and it just looks very glam. the lipstick winds up using the purple secton on the lipstick and the name is clearly wrote on the bottom as well as the tipe of lipstick 

the pigmentation of this lipstick is really good and a little bit of it goes along way. The colour of this lipstick is a mixture of a red mixed with purple.

The aplication for this lipstick is very good it alpplys really well but you need to be very carfull as like I said a little gose along way and it will look aufull if you get alittle bit of the lips as it will blead like crazy. 

the price is mid range same price as a mac lipstick at £15 but debenhams are always doing 10% - 15% off deals so you can get this lipstick cheeper. 

Would I recomend this lipstick? hell Yes!!!

So who else feels like its getting christmasy? Also like I said in yesterdays post, Please can you let me know what kind of thing you would like to see in my christmas giveaway which will be going up next week. 

Im finding it hard to get a full picture of our tree but this is part of the tree, really like our red theam! 

Blogmas #3 | A fashion with a little beauty Haul

Hi Everyone, so its day 3 and so far i'm enjoying blogging every day, Thinking i'm finding my love for blogging again. Before I get into today post though I want to ask you all something, I'm going to do a christmas giveaway probably on day 10 and it will most likely run for a week, I want you guys to let me know what you would like to see in the giveaway in the comment section below. 

Anyways as you may know from blogmas day 1 I resently went on a trip up to aberdeen and when I was up I did a little bit of shopping, may of spent quite a bit of money but I have finished all my christmas shopping and I have worked hard to make my money so I kind of treated myself. some of these items were actully nesaserry as well. 

now first thing is I got my Hunter wellies, these were a nessasery as my doctor actully recomented I get these wellies as I have a problem with my feet there a weard shap, slightly flat and I have really bad cerculation, and I were wellies alot so these were deffently worth it and they were on sale in USC for £60 there a size 4 and i'm ushaly a 4 or 5 so they run well to your actual size. I was originaly going to get lilac or pink ones but thought that the matte blue ones would go with alot more than pink or lilac. very happy with this perches so far have worn them 2 times already as I do work part time on a farm to make some money for doing my freelancing. 

I next got these shoes from dishmin there from the graceland collection. Again I got these because of my feet as I have been told not to were my vans all the time as they wont help me feel they can actully make them worse so I got these shoes to were to my other part time job at home bargains. these were a bargain at only £14.99 and there a good hight as well and there confy too. 

Next at tkmax I got these snow thermal socks, there is actully 2 pairs but I actully have a pair on my feet right now, these are so warm and I love them and they were only £4.99 instead of £12

Next off is miss selfridge, my sister actully works here so I did get a 20% off friends and family discount code so I bought this most beautiful winter party time top and I really like it, Miss selfrige actully had a tone of really nice winter part tops and dresses in and if I was rich I could of seen my buy alot more, Anyways that top was pretty expensive at £34.99. I then got these denim short style dungarees, dungarees have really been in style this past summer and I could not pass these off even though there a little big as they were only £15 but they only had a size 4 and a size 8 left and im a size 6 in miss selfridge so there a little big but im going to were a thick jumper and stuff underneeth so it will all be good. 

Ok so the last think you all will know about all ready, my mac studio fix fluid in nw10. which I have a blog post on which I did just 2 days ago so you could cheek that out if you would like. 

So my house is now feeling very christmasy with all our decorations up, I'm just hopping for a small layor of snow so I really feel festive, anyways must go now as I have work in just over a hour so must finish getting ready. Hope everyones having a good 3rd of december. 

My bedroom christmas tree, loving the white and light blue theam its really christmasy.
