Chanel nail varnish!

Unknown February 26, 2013 0 Comments

Whilst I was in London I couldn't resist the Chanel counter in covent garden and I just had to purchase this gorgeous nail varnish in the colour paradoxal. It is a grey nail varnish with tones of taupe and purple running through it. The purple shines out a lot more under the light, it is such a gorgeous colour! It also has a matalic look when in the bottle but it looks just as good on your nails!

Valentino Exhibition...

The Valentino exhibition is definitely the place to be if you love fashion and Valentino's work! Unfortunately when I visited it is strictly no photography so I couldn't get any pictures for you guys which I am pretty gutted about!!

This exhibition is held at the Somerset house in London and it is celebrating the life and work of Valentino show cases over 130 rare haute couture designs. The reason this exhibition is being held is because he is now retiring and he wants to show the public some of his gorgeous haute couture designs. When you go inside you are given a little booklet with numbers in and each design is numbered telling you a little information about each garment.

The last date for the exhibition is the 3rd of march so hurry and get your ticket! Tickets are available to purchase online and there is more information about it on this website.

It's a great exhibition so please get yourself to it if you love fashion just as much as me!

Sorry this post is late guys but last week me and the girls from college stayed in London over night! We didn't get to do much shopping but I did manage to get a few bits and take some photos! We originally went to see the Valentino master of couture exhibition! It was amazing! I totally recommend going to see it!

The last date is the 3rd of march so don't miss out! Il do a separate post on this for you telling you a little more about it :)

We also visited the Hard Rock Cafe and had a meal there which was lovely and I will definitely be visiting there again! I also bought a Hard Rock Cafe top from the souvenir shop just as a little extra :)

Top- Topshop
Skirt - miss selferage

Here is my outfit of the day guys! Simple but sweet! It's not exactly great for this cold weather but it would look great snugged up with my Parker with the faux fur hood!
This denim look skirt is my fave! It's quite old now but it will always be in my wardrobe!

I also really like the collar on my top as they are really on trend ATM! The bigger the collar the better!

skin care products/ routine

Unknown February 05, 2013 1 Comments

This is a fashion AND beauty blog so i thought id share my skin care routine / favourite products to use before applying make up and after i take it off at night.

Avon clear skin professional deep pore cleansing scrub

This is the best deep cleansing scrub i have ever used! it helps to get rid of spots instantly and it ex foliates your skin making it feel so soft and extremely fresh getting rid of any unwanted oils.

i have oily/ combination skin and i swear by this product. i repurchase it all the time.

10/10 for this product

however if you have really dry skin i don't suggest you try this.

2. St. Ives Naturally clear blemish fighting apricot scrub

I also use this face scrub to get rid of the blemishes and underskin spots on my face and again it is really good as it exfoloates the skin leaving it so soft and smelling lovely! it is also voted as Uk's No.1 scrub brand so try it out!! it can be purchased in either Boots, Superdrug or any other drugstores.

3. Avon clear skin Professional daily correcting lotion (spot treatment)

After washing/ scrubbing my face i apply this spot cream and it it by far the best i have ever used! it literally reduces the spots by 50% over night and then once you apply again by the next day the spots are as good as gone! i couldn't believe it when i first tried this out! again i will always use this product until i find something just as good.

I highly recommend this product especially if your face is prone to spots because this little wonder will have them gone in no time at all.

4. Nivea oil free moisturising day cream

In a morning after cleansing and adding my cream i then moisturise! so far this is the best moisturiser i have used for my skin as it is really oily so it gets rid of most of that leaving my sin super soft! however sometimes my nose is still a little shiny but i will be looking for a different product to take care of that!

Nivea products are great as they take care of all skin types.

this product can again be purchased is any drugstore.

5. Nivea regenerating night cream

After all of that instead of using the day cream before i go to bed i use this!! It is really good and it moisturises me really well but at the moment i find it is a little to thick for my face on a night and sometimes i do wake up feeling oily rather than feeling fresh although most of the time i do wake up with a fresh face when using this! I do not recommend this for people with oily skin such as myself. However it is perfect for dry skin as it is thick and it will soak into the skin making it really soft. So i will now be on the look out for my perfect night cream! this will do for the time being...

Hope these tips on these products will help :) untill next time mi lovelies x x x
