Haul / Outfit / Face

Sunday, June 12, 2011
Hi all

What have you been up to this weekend? Yesterday I went to Primark with my sister and my niece, we then went into Zoopa Doopa, a kids play thing in Cwmbran. It was my first time there, it was great and Gracie loved it. Not sure if I could cope going there again though. Some parents just don't give a damn! They go there, sit in the cafe and leave their kids to it. As a result their kids get away with doing what the hell they want, one knocked Gracie off her chair when she was eating her food! A little girl decided to ride her bike through the cafe area and went smack into Gracie's chair, where were the parents?? There were a few other incidents that riled me included kids going down the slides then climbing back up them which meant no one else could go on them. Some people just don't care. Rant over.

Haul

I only went into Primark for the bag, as usual I came out with a lot more! I've been wanting a pair of Palazzo trousers for a while now but haven't been able to find any short enough for my little legs, I saw these and decided just to get them and speak nicely to my mother in the hope that she will hem for them me. The mirror will be returned, I know it only cost £1 but as I have tried showing here the light is ridiculously bright plus £1 is a lot of money in Primark! I may return the dress too, not quite sure yet. It just doesn't seem to sit right on me. Isn't the belt the cutest belt ever?

O & F OTN 9.6.11 - Meal

Friday, June 10, 2011
Happy Friday :) Is everyone looking forward to the weekend? I'm having another quiet one, I've strangely been enjoying the quiet weekends lately, so unlike me!

Spencer and I bought a Groupon for a meal at The Farmer's Daughter in Newport ages ago, we finally used it last night! We had a three course meal for £26 - bargainous! The place and the food was amazing, highly recommended! If another Groupon comes out for them I'm there!

It was a lovely day so I wore my maxi dress, inspired by Rai I teamed it with a mis matching cardi, and I like, what do you think of the combo?

Excuse my dodgy facial expressions, it was a rush!
Also excuse the mess of my house, we're having a clear out!





Outfit
Dress & Cardi - Peacocks
Ring - Primark

Face
Foundation - Rimmel 25 hour applied with Sigma F80
Powder - Rimmel True Match blended with Sigma F15
Blush - Benefit Posie Tint
Lips - All for Eve by Daniel Sandler
Eyelids - 17 Glitter Eyeliner rubbed in with Sigma E25
Eyelashes - Avon Super Extend Mascara

Talking of Groupon have you seen today's amazing deal? For £49 two people get an overnight stay at Park Inn, Walsall, dinner, breakfast and admission to either West Midlands Safari Park or Cadbury World - awesome right! I'm currently trying to convince Spencer that we have a spare £49!

Glamour Benefit Freebies - Swatches

Thursday, June 9, 2011
Hi all, what a lovely sunny day it is here in South Wales! Its so nice to see the sun! I hope you've had a lovely day where ever you are :)

We had a power cut in town today, typically on my lunch time. I had a panic because I thought I wouldn't be able to get Glamour magazine! Thankfully Tesco were still open, annoyingly none of the chiller cabinets or freezers were on which meant a struggle to buy lunch, luckily Greggs saved the day! I don't know how or why but they weren't affected by the power cut, I'm assuming they must have back up generators.

I decided to pick up three copies of Glamour so that I could have all the freebies, so I've got three Benefit products for £6 - bargain!





Both Bene Tint and Posie Tint are lip and cheek stains. High Beam is a complexion enhancer and can be used on top of make up to highlight.

Unfortunately the swatches didn't photograph very well at all. They are all lovely though, I particularly like the High Beam and think I will get a lot of use out of this. Posie Tint is a lovely bright pink colour which is quite thick textured. Bene Tint is a blood red colour, this one is very thin unlike the other two and I think will be messy when using as a cheek stain.
