False Eyelashes Review | 10 Pairs Daily Long Curly False Eyelashes

Hello!
 I'm bringing you an eyelash review today! I used to wear really crazy false eyelashes all of the time last year but it slowly died out. I was thinking perhaps i'd go back to eyelashes to give myself a fuller lash line & went on a quest to find some lovely natural lashes!

I went to Amazon, my preferred place to purchase eyelashes & searched for some natural lashes and found this set of 10 for only 81p!




Once out of the box, The eyelashes are really light and fluttery & the strip they're attached to is actually clear, meaning they sit very discreetly in your lashline! 
I used the Eylure Lashglue to affix these lashes & I'll highly recommend using it!
I added a few small sweeps of mascara and no one could tell I was wearing falsies! Excellent, Ill be wearing these from now on.


Here's the link to these lashes! Get some for yourself if you love the look of them as much as me!

What are your go to false lashes?
That's all for today!

Beauty Buys | March 2014 |


Hey guys! It's been a busy week and I've gone through lots of beauty products this month! I topped up on some bargains so here's my most recent beauty buys! 


Heat Protectant Spray
99p

I picked up this Heat protectant whilst browsing in the 99p store. It's re-labelled L'Oreal from somewhere like china....I think!
I know it sounds so dodgy but it really leaves my hair so soft and it smells so lovely! 
I also picked up the same brand of Deep Conditioner from there too and they are such good value for money!


Rimmel Match Perfection 
103 True Ivory
£6.99
Savers

I LOVE this foundation! I bought it last year at a Higher Price from boots and it was such a good match for my skin! I ran out and had trouble bringing myself to pay the same price for another bottle and opted for a Miss Sporty Foundation instead. 
I noticed Savers had a little deal on this one so I nabbed it!
(I'm such a cheapskate haha!) 

 

Collection Lip Definer
1 Nude Pink
£2.79?
Boots

I picked up this lip liner as I needed a new Nude one, however it's exponentially darker than any nude lip ever... disappointing!
I still wear it however blended with my Collection Lipstick in Shade 12 Tea Rose!


Playboy Play it Pin-up 2nd Edition.
£6
Amazon

I had a whiff of this whilst I was in boots one day and it smelt heavenly! I was a big fan of the 1st edition bottle which had a pink bow (so cute!) but was taken aback by the price tag!
I went onto Amazon to find myself a deal, and ended up purchasing two bottles for just under £13! Result! Such a flirty perfume! MUCH RECOMMEND!


I was also given a few Benefit Goodies by my sister! YAY Freebies!


Benefit, They're Real!
Mascara

I've been trying this for a week or so now, and although it makes my lashes apparently darker it doesn't really make them all WOW like the name suggests! A real disappointment.... maybe it's the size! 


Benefit Bad Gal Lash
Mascara

I haven't tried this one yet but i'm quite excited at the aspect of the name! However i'm skeptical as my last benefit mascara experience was a let down! Time will tell!


'Sheer Facial Lotion'
Benefit

I think this is just a fancily worded backet of moisterizer, so im not sure what to say about this! I'll give it a go however and if it kicks the eczema off of my face i'll sing it's praises!



It's Potent! Eye Cream
Benefit

Again, a fancily worded Eye Cream, I don't even know what eye cream is for? Am I the worst beauty blogger in the world? Definitely!
It gives you 'brighter, younger looking eyes' so i'll use it and see if my eyes become that of a Twelve year old, innocent and on the cusp of secondary school.


So that's all my Buys! I know it's not terribly impressive but by heck it's a blog post!

How I Style Culottes | SS14 Trends |


Ok, So I've already touched on how much of a big hit Culottes are going to be this year! I felt it upon my duty as a blogger to purchase some and to style them for you! 

I Already have a Video over on my YouTube Channel with a few looks including these Culottes!
You can watch it here.

Please take a moment to subscribe if you have YouTube! It's so much fun to make fashion videos!

My Culottes are from ASOS and they're a gorgeous Art Deco pattern on a Bright Orange Palette. I LOVE THEM. I got mine from Ebay however they are still listed on ASOS and you can purchase this pair yourself here.

CASUAL SMART

I've styled the Culottes today in a Smart Casual look, Smart because of the HUGE shoes and the clutch, but casual with the crop top and bowler hat.


Bowler Hat
Forever 21
£12.50

White Crop
H&M
£3.99

Textured Clutch 
Primark
£6

Art Deco Print Culottes
ASOS
£12.50
(eBay find for only £3.99)

UNIF Hellbound Dupes
£32.00
AliExpress


These Culottes are a little long for my tiny legs so I thought I would incorporate my Fabulous UNIF Hellbound Dupes to give me a bit of height. 
I'm planning on taking the hem up to 22 Inches soon so They're better suited to my teeny-weeny-ness.

Throw on a Leather Jacket over this look and you're ready to go!
I really love these trousers! I think they're such a staple piece for my wardrobe and with so many fab pairs to choose from you really can't go wrong!

That's all on how I style these Culottes for now, I'll post a Casual College OOTD with them in very soon!

SS14 Trend Watch | Culottes |


Whilst browsing the Internet, Shopping...oop.. I came across a trend I've continuously seen everywhere, Instagram, Lookbook & YouTube.
Jumping into 2014 from the 60's, 70's & 80's but still keeping your dignity intact are Culottes! 

Culottes; is pronounced 'queue-lots'(In case you had trouble like me)

I LOVE Culottes I think they're so sweet and stylish for spring and lovely to transition into summer.. maybe even Autumn too if you choose a lovely color like this TOPSHOP pair.


Floral Culottes
Topshop
£38
(No Longer in stock in the sale for £7, Look out for them on eBay)


Culottes allow for an effortless causal look, whilst still being quite well presented! The wider-brimmed leg type look exactly like a skirt, However when they catch the breeze they don't blow up like a skirt! HUZZAH! An answer to our prayers here in windy England! 

A soft Floral designed culotte like these from TOPSHOP can make a sweet summer outfit, teamed with a sweet Lace Bralet like this one from FOREVER 21 and  coordinating accessories.


Sweet Lace Bralet
Forever 21
£12.15



Floral Wide Leg Culotte
Topshop
£40
(Recently in the sale for £3? I couldn't believe it! But all are sold out so again; TAKE TO EBAY MY PRETTIES!)

The last pair I have been umming and aahing over for a few days now. These culottes from ASOS are a bold Burgundy, and they flow nicely to just over the knees. 

I'm unsure if they'll be too bold for day wear but for a night out they would look fabulous with a Black Lace Bralet and some Strappy Black Platforms!


Burgundy Culottes
ASOS
£11
Reduced from £38


I don't know about you but I am itching to purchase some culottes for when spring kicks in! 

Ciao

Work Outfit of The Day | No.3 |

Here's a quick rundown of my Casual Outfit of the Day that I wore to work today. It's only simple as I can't quite dress up for work but I felt cute & comfortable!

Jumpers layered over Dresses are a cute way to keep warm! This dress is actually a sleeveless one and the jumper conceals the top, meaning I could pack a tight fitting vest and t-shirt under my dress! My shop is fr-r-r-eezing at the moment, therefore layers are a must!

I also wore my fur collar over the top of the ensemble, as extra added warmth! I'm a Cosy Josy

Overall It's a simple Vintage style look, and a warm one too perfect for these harsh-winterz.

P.S. Excuse my bedroom! You know the struggle of being a girl and getting ready... being tidy didn't make the equation!

Cream Close-Knit Jumper
