Make up Revolution Haul #1

I have a confession to make, I actually bought this make up a long while ago, and it has been sitting in my drawer for a long while, waiting to be photographed... Last week it was sunny enough for me to get the photos (finally).

As soon as I saw the Makeup Revolution lipsticks showcased on another blog, I knew I would have to snap up some of the more unusual colours, and so I did. At £1 each you really can't go wrong, and you'd be surprised how good the quality is for this price.

These are what the lipsticks look like swatched on the hand. The lovely Lilac shade is called Depraved and the Blue one underneath is called Immoral. I was worried that these might look weird on the lips, but I was pleasantly surprised, especially with the lilac one.

The next items immediately added to my basket, were a couple of the salvation velvet lip lacquers, these are what originally made me want to buy from Make up Revolution, so I treated myself and picked up two of the colours.

The top shade is a lovely rosey pink and is called 'What I Believe', this is a very wearably colour and I can see it making it's way into my everyday make up routine. The bottom shade is a vibrant red shade called, 'Keep Trying For You', and I believe that they were £3 each.

Of course I simply cannot buy make up without stocking up on yet another palette! At least I can say hand on heart that I don't have many, if any similar eye shadows to this palette. This is the Acid Brights palette and only set me back £4. A total bargain, and I cannot wait to use these colours this summer. You can bet that there will be a make up tutorial coming your way very soon!

Let me know in the comments if you've bought anything from Make Up Revolution! What would you recommend that I buy next?

#BEDM 11: Weekend Wishlist...

It seems to me as though it has been forever since I last did a wishlist post... So I thought it was about time I got back into it.What my wardrobe is really crying out for at the moment is some summer dresses. Most of the ones I own are heavy, which isn't ideal for the sunny weather that is hopefully coming soon, so I hopped on over to the Newlook website and had a nosey through their sale...

I love every single one of these dresses, I am absolutely gutted that I haven't got enough money to buy all of these, but I can certainly see a few of these slipping their way into my wardrobe!

Are you looking forward to the summer?

Berkshire Bloggers Do #SBBC: Favourite Jewellery

I'm not a big jewellery person to be honest. I won a fair amount of it, but I have to be in the right kind of mood to be wearing it. So I thought I would show you the pieces that I wear the most.

 This is my favourite bracelet of the moment. I bought it in Matalan during my graduation week, and normally if I'm wearing anything, it's this. I'm a massive fan of Tim Burton, and this bracelet really reminds me of his style. Plus it's in pretty pastel colours, which makes it both cool, and a little girly.

I bought this necklace for the same reason as above. Also because blue is my favourite colour. As soon as I saw this necklace from across the store in New Look, I gravitated towards it and knew it had to be mine! It has the same skulls as the bracelet, and I also own it in pink and white. I just couldn't resist it.

These two pieces are definitely the ones that get the most wear for me, and that's actually really unusual, because it's a gold colour, and I MUCH prefer silver. My sister bought me this necklace, and I bought the earrings from New Look. They go perfectly together because they are the same style, and they are really easy to wear. Also I am totally obsessed with owls... that is all.

So there we have it, a little insight to my favourite pieces of jewellery! Let me know in the comments what your favourite piece is.
