Snow Day

Last week the lovely Kieron asked on twitter if anyone would like to review some wellies and as we were having some pretty rubbish weather at the time i jumped at the chance.
I'll let you into a little secret i haven't owned a pair of wellies since i was about 10, I'm that girl that goes out in the rain and snow in nothing but a pair of ballet pumps, not one of my best decisions I'll admit!
Now after getting my hands on my first pair in 15 years i love them!

I decided to go for this pair, having big calves ankle wellies are the way forward. This pair are really cute and at £16 a great price for a cute fun pair of wellies. I got these is a size 5 and the fit in the foot was great, i found them a little tricky to get on but maybe that's because I'm so out of practise.

I thought these wellies went perfectly with my red dress from the fat swap and my thick black tights. As I'm sure you've noticed i got myself yet another pair of cat ears, these ones are faux fur earmuffs from Accessorize. 

These wellies are fab they are comfortable and keep you feet lovely and dry and have quite a good grip on the bottoms too so no slipping and sliding. Barratts have a great selection of wellies go and have a look if you haven't got yourself a pair for this winter, great prices and so much to choose from! 

I've found a love for wellies now how about you ?

Lush lippy

I don't usually post beauty or make up mostly because i tend to be quite behind the times when it comes to what the kids are wearing! I had seen a few ladies blog about the lush make up range and decided to try it for myself when i passed a lush store recently. I went straight up to the make up section and was drawn to this red, an assistant came over and gave me a test wand to try it out.

Its called decisive which i most defiantly am not! its a lovely red colour and looks great on your lips. The assistant in the shops said you can use it as eyeliner or on your cheeks, i personally wouldn't use this as eyeliner because i'd look like i had an infection! i did try it on my cheeks but it looked crazy the colour is so strong that even with a tiny amount i looked like a rosy cheeked doll. Its safe to say that i will be using the the way i had originally intended on my lips where it looks fab.

For an idea of size

The wand

This was £14.50 which is quite pricey so i don't think i would be buying more than one, but the colour is very vibrant and it did stay on well when i wore it. A little of this seems to go a long way so i think i might last a while. Now onto what it looks like on lips

On my hand

Close up of my lips

I was ready to go out in the sun hence the
sunglasses.

I really do like the colour of this and i did see a nice pink and purple while i was in the store but I'm not sure if i will be going back as £29 for two lipsticks its quite a lot and i could buy a dress for that. I would recommend the lipstick if you have some spare cash or want to get someone a gift, the colour is fab and it seems to have decent staying power.

I hope you enjoyed something a little different from me.

Do you have anything from the lush make up range?

Day 7 - a special occasion outfit

Well I haven't had a special occasion to wear it yet but it has to be my red 'Joan' dress from the clements ribeiro range for Evans. As soon as I tried this dress on I smiled. I have seen a few reviews that the dress isn't very flattering, this is probably because of the VBO- visible belly outline,I have one in it but I don't care. Maybe this would be less obvious if you had shape wear on but I don't own any so I can't say. The dress is my usual size but I found it to be on the smaller side around the bust. I love the detailing around the shoulders and the colour, I like things that make you stand out. The dress was a lot more than I would usually pay, but for a dress that can make me feel so amazing it's worth it. I'm not wearing tights for a change so you get to see my milk bottle white legs I don't wear fake tan and I don't really like the sun so I'm this white all year round!
I'm also wearing my irregular choice wedges I love the detail in the heel. I got these years ago for a cheap price on eBay and they are really comfy but need reheeling so haven't been worn in a while.
Whats your special occasion outfit?
