January Sales!!

Hey up peeps!! 

I just remembered that I bought two new items of clothing yesterday in the January sales. Think I forgot because I went with the intention of buying a bowler hat and a sparkly dress for NYE but unfortunately didn't. 
I tried on three different bowler hats, two in River Island and one in New Look but they were all too big! So going to order a child's size one from River Island's website instead. I don't really like buying online as I prefer to see it in front of me looking all pretty on the shop shelf and it helps keep a local person in a job! 
The things I did buy was a nice floral dress and a skater skirt. Both from New Look and cost me £15.99 in total. The skirt is a maroon colour and will fit me perfectly like my denim skater skirt. I can dress it up and down depending on what I wear it with. I love mixing up my clothes and trying various styles. I tend to go for what I like and feels good on me rather than buying something because it's hot on the catwalk. I do like my little quirky details though! My latest quirk is my love of skulls (although I've liked them for some time now but going through a skull phase). 
I haven't yet decided on my accessories for my NYE's outfit yet, might wear my skull jewellery again as they'll look funky with my new Xmas dress and need some inspiration for what to do with my hair... If you have any ideas, then please share them with me but something that's easy enough for me to do. 
I'll be joining some of my family on NYE at a local sports/function club room for a night of Motown and Soul music which will be totally cool! I wonder if anyone else I know will be there? 
What do you think of my new blog so far... Do you like my background? You will have to be patient as I get us started on our journey with it being some time since I last written anything properly. 
Talk to you soon xxx

Children with Gadgets

Hello everyone, I've been thinking back to a few weeks back when I was having a conversation with somebody. The topic was about kids having technical gadgets like games consoles, kindles, iPads and so on.  Going back to when I was a child, we didn't have all of these. Yes we had an Atari but that was for the whole family and I was in my teens by the time we got it. I had actual children's toys like Lego, Sindy dolls, and other toys. For the days that it rained or was too cold, I'd spend hours playing with these toys and I enjoyed arts. I'd do painting, making things and writing stories.  I liked to play out on the street with the other kids on the street. There were skipping ropes, pogo sticks and that ball with the rope toy etc. It was so much fun and meant we  learnt how to be creative, socialising and getting the exercise needed.  Another thing that kinda annoys me is when parents give their little kids kindles and iPads or even putting a DVD on fo

Child Prodigy

Image
It was just the other day when I came across a documentary by Keith Allen filming James Harries who is now known as Lauren Harries. Does the name ring a bell to you? He was the 80s/90s child prodigy who claimed to know about Antiques. He had thick, curly blonde hair and always wore a dicky bow tie. I'll post a picture of him as a young boy, I'm sure you'll remember him when you see him. Back to the documentary. James is now Lauren after a sex reassignment operation. I actually think she still seems confused and delirious. In fact the whole family are living in a world of fantasy, delirious, disfunctional and delusion. All the way through I kept an open mind, in a way, I kind of felt sorry for them. All those years ago, Mark and Kate must have been really desperate to push their youngest son into the limelight forging a claim that he could do antiquing at such a tender age. I thought it was good that Lauren had counselling during the treatment but when i

How I Created This Eye Look!!

Image
Hi everyone! I want to tell you how I created this eye makeup look on myself from last week. I think it looks really nice and quite natural which is great for every day style.  The products that I used are as follows; Rimmel UK - Pinkadilly Circus Eyeshadow Palette ‘Rosie for Autograph’ by Marks and Spencer - Cream Eyeshadow Stick GOSH COSMETICS - Forever Eyeshadow Stick Avon UK - True Colour Glimmersrick Eyeliner  Benefit Cosmetics - Bang BadGal Mascara  How I created this eye look . I started of by applying the the lightest shade which is a white colour all over the lid as a base.  Then using the light pink along the crease line and all over the lid. Starting from a third off the inner corner, I applied the slightly darker shade just along the lid.  Then with the darkest shade which is like a dark pinky/brown in the outer corner. This creates like a smokey eye effect. I didn’t think it was showing up as much as I hoped so I decided to apply some of the ‘Rosie’ Eyeshadow Stick in the
