Space Girl by Lush


Space Girl by Lush

Shout out for how truly amazing the Space Girl bath bomb is.  I first saw it on Away with the Fairies blog and I was shopping with my Mum and popped into Lush as I wanted to try it.

Just for a bit of naming and praising, because life in retail can be tough, I went to the Truro branch and they were so lovely. Long gone are the days where I thought Lush just sold over priced, ridiculous bars of soap. Their displays and staff were absolutely lovely. I was given a demonstration by someone I actually went to school with but he was so good with everyone in the shop. They knew exactly what I wanted and gave me a demonstration on making a load of bubbles. Always a winner.

Anyway, I just thought this was truly amazing and I wanted to share.

Sleek Luminous Press Powder

 

Sleek Luminous Press Powder- Superdrug -£6.99
I've wanted to try this press powder out for a while but still had some loose powder to use up. I generally prefer loose powder as appose to set but the 'luminous' factor of this one somewhat attracted me to it.
 
I don't need heavy foundation but given how long I have to wear make-up for (full day of interning followed by a part time job but I usually wipe and reapply) I like to use a setting powder.
 
This gives a really glowy look and just what I was looking for. I really like Sleek at the moment. I swear by their Rose and Gold blusher which is a really good dupe for Nars Orgasm. I know everyone is aware of that and have they're own opinions but for less than £5 you can't go wrong.
 
Have you tried any Sleek products?

London Calling





Top- Charity Shop
Skirt- Asos
Snood- New Look
Hat- Asos


How cliched is the title? Oh well, as almost as cliched as spelling cliched wrong because I can't be bothered to add the accent in on the 'e'... unless you're a potential employer in that case... it's not working?

Anyway.. hi-ho-hi-ho, it's back to London I go. I am not joking at this next bit. I left London on Boxing Day, went 'up-North' to see my Mum and family and then came home to Cornwall where I've spent the last two weeks. This is the bit i'm not joking at. I rocked up in Cornwall with literally my handbag, my laptop and the clothes I stood in. Yet... I had enough clothes i'd left behind when I first hopped to it to London to wear and it wasn't even stuff I had to make to with. It was actually stuff I liked wearing and forgot about.  I have too many clothes. But shall I de-clut myself of some of them?... never!!! Besides I still have Asos and Jack Wills vouchers to spend.

I have an interview for another internship on Friday... (mental high five to self)... I swear i'm morphing into Miranda.

Not exactly a ground breaking outfit. I love this top. Despite it adding about 10 extra pounds in its appearance to me I've always liked it. I wore this hat to dinner with  my friends and they didn't ridicule me for it... it must be a winner.

Happy Friday People... :D

Two thousand and fourteen







Dress- Asos
Hat- Asos
Bracelets- Pandora and Disco Beads
I promised myself i'd get on with this blog in 2014 but it's been hard. I've not been in London this 2014 and not due to start interning again until late January. I'm back in London on Friday and really plan to make the most of it.

It's been hard. I'm not exactly in love with London. Everyone pushes and shoves. The people I have managed to meet and become friends with are fantastic and i'm sure the woman who stood on my foot on a bus and didn't bother to apologize is lovely too once you get to know her but general public of London...eurgh!

I love this dress. It's from Asos and I wish I'd bought a size 10. I always fail to size down a Asos but you really should!! It's a bit of dupe this dress for a Lazy Oaf baseball top with eye prints. I only mention it because I wore it to the Lazy Oaf press office to pick up a sample. #badintern
