Afternoon Tea - Grosvenor House, Park Lane

Afternoon Tea @ Grosvenor House

I have always wanted to go to Afternoon Tea, it just seemed like such a fun girly day out. I  have slowly been compiling a list of things I would like to do, such as places to visit and activities to try etc. Afternoon Tea was one of the items on my list.

My sister found a deal on Book Table. The deal was for Afternoon Tea and unlimited champagne...yes you read that right unlimited.

EATS | Frankie and Benny's

I tend to post on social networks - twitter, facebook and instagram - when I'm heading out to eat. Yes I am one of those people who post pics of their food, on occasion. GUILTY! Frankie and Benny's (FBs) is one of my favourite places to eat. What I love about FBs (besides the food) is that they have a very affordable lunch menu with an array of options.

EATS | Miller and Carter

Hey guys and dolls,

MILLER AND CARTER STEAKHOUSE

So the fam and I went out for a celebratory meal, it was my choice so I decided on Miller and Carter. I'd wanted to go for ages and there is one not far from where I live.

WE.ARE.PARAMORE!

Hey dolls,

I'm not sure how many of you know this, but from the beginning I have been a MASSIVE fan of PARAMORE. I can't think of any band or singer that I've followed continuously for almost a decade. Hayley Williams is my absolute LOVE. She's so cute and energetic like a little energiser bunny. But what I most love about her is how humble and sweet she is. Don't get me wrong I understand that Paramore is a band and has 2 other vital members. Jeremy and Taylor are great but she is my idol. 

Sleek 2012 collection

Hey dolls,

"Get into the spirit of the games in style with Sleek MakeUP’s limited edition 2012 Collection, capturing London’s most exciting event this summer. Featuring i-Divine in Glory, Blush in Honour and Pout Polish in Pride, it’s everything you’ll need to take you from day to night in true winning style!"

I first heard about this palette when Beauty by JJ, posted a pic of this palette on instagram and I fell in love with it. I'm not the most patriotic person but when I saw that the new palette was based around the London Underground I was so excited and thought it was such a cool idea. And I'm looking at the train lines and I was sat here like "I've used all these lines" I know I'm sad hahaha

Pout polish - Pride

£4.29

Blush - Honour

£4.29

The blush and pout polish are pretty much the same colour. They're a rose gold/bronze shade. They remind me of MAC's Rose pigment just not a shimmery. These really suit my skin tone I feel. I'm really impressed with this collection.

Swatches:

Top - Honour

Bottom - Pride

e/s palette - Glory
£7.99

 Top L-R: Tube, Overground, Bakerloo, Jubilee, Platform, Northern
Bottom L-R:District, Hammersmith and city, Piccadilly, Circle, Victoria, Central

The top row minus Northern has very natural shades. And then the bottom line is very bright and out there. Which I LOVE. This palette is very versatile and is suitable for anytime of day or night.

I thought for those of you who aren't from London or never used the tube I'd show the tube map where these palette was inspired by. This is the map we use to get around London. It looks confusing but once you get used to it, its not. So the e/s palette was based around some of these train lines. Some colours aren't exact but I don't mind.

I just noticed that in the Bronze, Silver and Gold medals on the packaging it has the name of the product on it. For example on the e/s palette on the gold medal it says glory, on the silver it says honour and on the bronze medal it says pride.

I would definitely recommend that if you can get your hands on this GET IT!!!!!!!!! Its amazing. And its not the easiest to get a hold of, the Stratford westfield superdrug has not got this in stock and neither does my town centre superdrug. So I was so happy to get this.

This is available in store and its finally available online :)
