So... I'm on Youtube!

Our Channel

Me and my best friend Charlotte recently went to watch the 1975 gig in Manchester which is as any fan will know, the boys' home town. We decided to film an outfit video and pre-concert vlog with a little footage from the actual concert, well to be honest the bits that we weren't hysterically screaming over!

Nars Fez Eyeshadow

On a recent shopping trip in Manchester I found myself at the Nars counter as I had been on the hunt for the perfect brown eyeshadow to add to my collection. Brown shades are often overlooked yet this shade really caught my eye. Fez is a warm brown shade with golden undertones that catches the light beautifully. I found it to be the middle ground between MAC bronze and Mulch which I had also been debating. Unfortunately the Nars counter in Selfridges did not have this shade in stock but the sales assistant kindly pointed me in the direction of Space NK (I thought Space NK was only in London!) where the sales ladies were lovely I would highly recommend a visit to those who live in Manchester.

I had never previously tried the Nars eyeshadows as I feel their blushes are the brand's most coveted products however I have been really impressed with the formula. The shadow is buttery in texture, blending like a dream and provides even coverage. The lasting power is also very good and Fez remains on the lid a lot longer than the Naked 2 palette shades especially when combined with a primer or the Maybelline colour tattoo in 'On and on bronze.'

I plan to post a 'face of the day' featuring this eyeshadow very soon, let me know what your favourite eyeshadow single is!

Trafford Centre Victoria's Secret Store

Victoria's secret is undoubtedly one of the most iconic lingerie brands of today, the Victoria's secret angels are idolised by many women for their perfect bodies and natural beauty. The idea that a cute matching bra and pants set could transform me into a supermodel is far from reality. However, there is something about wearing beautiful lingerie that gives you that extra boost of confidence and femininity, even if no one is going to see it!

The new Victoria's Secret store is a pink paradise of lace trims, silky panties and super-soft lounge wear. Inside has a boudoir feel with black pull-out drawers housing bras of all sizes and designs. The Victoria's secret Pink collection of lounge-wear and lingerie is separate, with candy pink stripes giving this area a younger college feel.

The store also features the bath and beauty collections and I have my eye on a few of the flirty floral body sprays and plumping lip glosses. I will definitely be making Victoria's secret a regular stop on my shopping trips from now on!
