Great Success!

Hello everyone!
I went on abit of a shopping splurge recently. 
I got those purdy aldo shoes that I mentioned in the post below. I am totally excited to wear these to my friends 21st at the weekend. I was thinking of wearing then will skinny demin jeans, a fitted black blazer and a silk blouse in the same colour, and I would back comb my hair like there's no tomorrow to give it loads of volume. And to top it all off, I would do a dark sultry makeup look, something like a Kim Kardashian look.
(Absolutely love the Kardashians btw!) I also got a new smolder eyeliner (black) from MAC. 
I also bought a mac lipstick Dark side and liner in Vino. This is a dark berry red lipstick which will be perfect for fall. I cant really pull of bright red lipstick at all so I have to stick with the darker ones! I was thinking of this colour when I went into MAC and I asked the assistant what colour would suit me and she said this one before I even mentioned it to her. So it must be okay! It is quite dark and I'll need to be brave to wear it out but we'll see. :)
I got the Urban Decay Naked pallete last week because I am a loser and I didnt even know it was available here yet, so yeah I finally got it! And it is AMAZING! I cannot express how gorgeous the colours are. There are so many combinations you can do with this palette. Its perfect for anyone who likes Kim Kardashians look. Every colour you need for it is in there. AND you get a double ended liner pencil, One end is zero (Black) and the other end is Whiskey (brown), you also get a small bottle of Urban Decays well known primer which will hold your eye makeup in place all day! Seriously recommend this!
Sadly, I have a terrible memory and I forgot to bring my camera charger to University with me this week and my camera died last night so I cant upload any pictures or new videos which is terribly sad for me!
But when I get it at the weekend, I'll update this post with photos etc. 
Bye lovelies!

Things I really want!

  



Howdi!
I don't know why but lately I just want loads of things? I don't usually want loads of things. I usually just pick one thing and save till I get it. Like my new laptop which I'm getting tomorrow. I'm really excited about it! It will be much easier for me to do this blogging business and I'll be able to start making my videos! Yay!
Here's my wish list anyhow.... 


This neckace is from RiverIsland. I'll get this next week hopefully!


Front, back, and side views of iPhone 4 in white.

An Iphone 4! 
I seriously want one of these bad boys! But they are really expensive where I live so this will take some serious saving or an unreal Christmas present! We'll see about this one....

Aldo Yerke Shoes!
These are on sale at the moment so I'm definitely getting these tomorrow!
I'm going up to the city where I go to University tomorrow to move my stuff into my new apartment and I'll be picking these up on the way! 
You know when you get some heels that are really inexpensive and they absolutely kill your feet after 10 minutes walking? Well thats why I firmly believe in buying good heels. I have only got a few pairs of heels and thats because I buy expensive ones which I save up for ages to get! So I love them even more!
I have a really big birthmark on my foot so I only really buy shoes that cover the front part of my foot like the ones above.

New Mac stuff. Any Mac stuff really. I'm presuming if you are on this blog you feel the same!
Also, last night I got an email to say that the new Urban Decay Book of Shadows III is available soon! Cannot wait!
Do you have any of these things that I want or is there anything cool that your saving for?
Let me know so I can want more things and go green with greed! :)

Toodles!

Barry M Nail Paints, False lashes and nails!

hello!
So over the past few days I expanded my nail varnish collection again!
I got these Barry M nail polishes in Superdrug!
Superdrug give excellent deals, like, buy 2, get 1 free! I really try to stock up on products when Im in there!

Okay theres loads of them!
I went for some colours that would go with everything! 
Im really looking forward to wearing the deep red in the autumn/fall (!?) what ever you want to call that season!

I wore the light blue colour the other day and my friend said it was very
Jasmine-esque which I thought was really cute because I love Aladin!
Also, lately I've been painting my entire nail white! Not just the tip, like a french manicure but the whole nail. I saw Lady GaGa wearing it and now Im addicted! (I didnt actual see Lady GaGa. It was a picture in a magazine!)

I also went to this new shop in town that is a makeup discount shop!
I got so many products for less than €20!
I got cotton buds, cotton balls, nail polish remover, a new maybelline mousse blush and a rimmel mousse bronzer. I also got new false lashes and false nails!
I am really liking the Rimmel mousse cool bronzer. It is 003 deep glow. You know those days where you really dont want to wear foundation but you dont want to not wear any makeup? Well this is perfect. It gives a 'im just back from a sun holiday look. I have just been applying this with my fingers all over my face
and  making sure not to leave lines especially the jaw line!

The Maybelline Dream Mousse Blush is in 06 Brown. Its a nice near matte blush to wear with the bronzer! and I got it for just €2! The bronzer was €3.

The false lashes and nails that I purchased were pre-glued. I had never used pre-glued lashes or nails before but now that I have I am totally converted!
I was going to my boyfriends 21st Birthday party last night and I didn't have much time as I only finished work at 6 and I had to be there at 7ish! the lashes I used were eylure ready to wear pre glued lashes!
I slightly trimmed the lashes to match my own. The lashes lasted all night and even through sleep (crazy night! Didn't take off my makeup... I know... I know).
But anyway, thats an ultimate test for false lashes because its such a pain going out and having to adjust your lashes all night. And, I put them back on the little plastic holder they came on and they are definitely reusable!

The preglued nails I used were elegent touch in super short. They stayed on all night and even nearly all today! (One fell off in work but I could quickly stick it back on). I had to wear false nails because my nails were abit tattered from work because I use my hands
alot and I wanted them to look good in photos last night!
So I would recommend trying out some pre-glued nails or lashes! They make getting ready ten times less stressful when in a rush!

Have any of you guys ever used these products or ones like them? Let me know in the comments below! Rhyme!

Theres not much else that I have purchased over the last few days other than new shoes which I got in new look. I will take a picture of them soon and I'll post it up! They are super cute! I love heels!

Bye!
