I got me a tattoo :)

Hey guys and dolls,

  
For the longest time and I mean longest time, I have wanted a tattoo.

Story time:
I remember when I was about 10/11 my family and I went on a holiday to Orlando, Florida (best trip ever). One random evening we were walking down International drive (I think) ans we came across this tattoo parlour. My mum, dad and big sis all jumped at the chance to have some ink done. The tattoo artist even joked if I wanted to get a tattoo of NSYNC on my arm LOL. So glad I said no to that. I was so young and deathly afraid of needles (well I still am afraid of needles).

Touché By Flavien review

Hey guys and dolls,

A while ago I was invited to an intimate blogger event held at Fenwick's to discuss a new range of hair products from industry professional Flavien Abbas.

Unfortunately I don't have pics from the event as those pictures got lost in the ether when my phone died :( It was a lovely setup though. It was like a little tea party (minus the tea) with little cakes and sandwiches and a lovely glass of wine.



Flavien was so lovely and his french accent was adorable:) (I'm a sucker for an accent). He talked us through his products and his experience in the industry.

Guess Who's Back!!!

Hey guys and dolls,

Wow so it's been a hot minute since I last updated this blog. Happy New Year everyone!!!!!

The main reason I stopped before which you know was because  my phone was damaged and had to have it sent off for repairs #sadtimes. Seriously you don't realise how much you rely on technology until it's taken away but wow I actually felt like a limb was missing. I felt so disconnected from the world. I know I'm sad haha.  So with having no phone the issue was that I use  my phone to take and edit my blog pics, so not having it meant no blog posts from me :( #paininthebutt.

I got my phone back but cos I hadn't blogged for so long I just went into a funk and sort of got writers block. And just didn't know how to start blogging again. Even writing this feels foreign to me, but hey ho I gotta get back on the horse sometime.. I've gone longer periods before of not blogging but that was when my blog wasn't really a priority of mine (is priority the right word?) and I would blog intermittently but recently in the last few months I've really been putting a lot more effort into my blog and trying to post regularly. Which can be difficult as I don't always have new products to review cos I'm the kind of person that sticks to the same products for a while, so I'm not always out buying new things. I wanna do more than reviews and hauls. I wanted to actually incorporate my passion and what I chose as a career...make up. I wanna use this blog as a sort of platform for my work and act maybe as a partial online portfolio. And I did meantime that I wanna start incorporating fashion into this blog as well.

I have such a back log of items that the new schedule I created won't be up and running until I get caught up with some old posts I had :)

Hope everyone is well.

I will have a post up after this of some hair products I got tot try out.

Technical Difficulties :(

Hey guys and dolls,

OK so I did a post the other week about what was to come on my blog. I was all set to get back in the blogging swing tomorrow after my little break, but typical bad luck struck me today and my beloved samsung galaxy died :'( I don't know when it's gonna be fixed (hopefully by the end of the week - wishful thinking).

I take/edit my photos on my phone. This is so frustrating because I had all my pics for my next few posts already done and ready to go :( So I'm really sorry but I won't be updating on here.

I'll still be updating my twitter page, so I'll most likely update on there about what's happening with my phone as soon as I know.

UPDATE 6/11/13:
My phone finally got sent off for repairs yesterday :) I hope so hard that I will get it before my birthday (she says hopefully). But either way if everything goes well I should have my blog back up and running next week :)

In the mean time you can check out the post I did on my cooking blog about The Breakfast Club.

UPDATE: 11/11/13:
I got an email from my mother today letting me know that my phone has been fixed. And I should have it back in a few days. So this blog will be up and running again next week. I have loads of thing to swatch and take pics to re-take and edit.
