1960's Inspiration

The charity Shop I volunteer in is moving to a bigger premises and were having some Open day celebrations and all the staff are dressing up 1960's Rockabilly style. Now's about the time I would like to mention I was born in 1995 and therefore have zero knowledge about the 60's but after doing some research I think I may have found a new style genre for me. I'm all for dressing up so I'm extremely excited about the day and want to do the 1960's justice so here are so of my inspirations.

                                                              Dress

Bit of a blue theme. I LOVE the petticoats under the dresses perfect for swooshing around. .emm or more appropriately dancing to some good old swing music.

                                                                   Hair

A good beehive is a perfect style for any occasion but they sure know how to do it back in the 60's, I'm still working on getting mine to this height. I think adding a hair ribbon or scarf finishes of the look completely by adding that touch of colour and real 60's vibe. 

Make up

I've never seen 60's make up like this before but I absolutely love it. The dark line in the crease is actually a really smart way of opening up your eyes and giving that dramatic dark colour.

Shoes

These are not just 60's shoes the brogues on the left are everywhere right now. I think there perfect little daytime shoes adding a touch of glamour. 

Okay I'm totally in love with the 60's now and can't wait to get all glammed up.

What are your favorites about the 60's?? let me know in the comments .

E.L.F me up

I know what your thinking.. ELF?? gosh another one straight onto Christmas once Halloween is over. But you'd be wrong. If like me you'd never heard of e.l.f , let me tell you about this amazing make up brand. Standing for eyes,lips and face its an all rounder brand which caters for all make up needs. The thing that makes e.l.f even more amazing is the price. You get insane bargains for amazing quality and things such as palettes containing 32 colors for just £5. I haven't yet found a store that sells e.l.f unless your in the U.S (target, etc) but buying online is just as handy although you do have to wait for the delivery (sigh). So let me show you whats on my e.l.f wishlist right now.

e.l.f Studio Makeup mist and set. $3

I've been looking everywhere for a good quality make up setting spray instead of using the good old trick, hairspray and this 60ml bottle sounds perfect with aloe vera, cucumber and vitamins all nourishing the skin.

e.l.f Studio mascara and shadow shield. $3

I've never seen anything like this before but it is pure genius. Theres nothing more annoying then spending ages getting your eye make up perfect then finding some under your eye which leads to rubbing which leads to panda eyes.

e.lf Studio Daily moisture stick. $6

Again pure genius. This is such an handy little product instead off carrying around a big old bottle of moisturizer this little stick does all the work. Packed with antioxidants and anti ageing ingredients I can just imagine how good this can be for your skin.

e.l.f Studio 150 piece Geometric Eye shadow palette. $12.00

The pattern on this is a real unique way of having a eye shadow palette and it defiantly caught my eye. I love the dark warm shades and the fact there is so many different shades of the one colour to find your perfect one.








Lastly (for now) these limited edition beauty books are simply amazing. Perfect for creating the perfect Halloween look or simply playing dress up I love the endless looks you can create. $4.80 each.
         Diva Beauty Book.                           Enchanted Beauty Book.                 Wicked Beauty Book.

Do you have any e.l.f products?? What are your favorites?? let me know in the comments below

My 19th Birthday Gifts

I had a brilliant birthday this year and was spoiled rotten and I want to show you guys the amazing things my lovely family gave me.

As we start every birthday, my parents and me had breakfast and I opened my presents. They got me the cutest gifts and I can't wait to use them.

This super cool nail art set is amazing. You copy the print with the pen in the set and magically comes out on your nails, I really explained that well (sarcasm) but hopefully you get me.

 I have this weird thing of collection snowglobes so my mum couldn't resist here. This one is class though because you add your own picture.

 This handy magnetic note pad and weekly planner is perfect as I'm continually keeping notes and losing them. As you can see I'm already using them.

My brother spoils me every year and he did again this year.

 

By complete coinsurance my Brother got me the Ghost candle holder and My parents got me the pumpkin candle holder. Love them both so much.

This Vegan recipe book is just what I've been looking for, I'm consistently getting fed up with basic foods without meat but this has a great selection of ideas. I'm surprised with my brother getting this as he thinks my being veggie is a phase and he doesn't understand it as he offered me lettuce on my toast for breakfast or to just go outside an gnaw on a tree.

 This Minon t-shirt kinda explains itself.

This hat is INSANELY warm I can't even explain it Roll on the snow. And also roll on 2015 to use this adorable calendar. Lastly from my favorite brother this Simply Gold fragrance set with is amazing and smells soooo good. I was too spoiled I really had a great birthday

O

 My bro's girlfriend who is like a big sister to me has amazing taste in beauty products and she picked beautiful things for me. This Chit Chat lipgloss set is so cute and tastes like bubblegum. I was gobsmacked when I seen the W7 In the Nude palette because I this came out the day after I got the In The Buff palette, these are just amazing palettes and I can't wait to use it

Also from my Bro's GF was this AMAZING Ellie Mai brush set which I can't even put into words I'm so excited about this there sooo good and just perfect.










Thanks to everyone who made this birthday a year to remember and thank you soo much for the gifts.
