War Paint...

Make-up is the only thing that rivals my obsession with fashion!! i adore it! i wont even walk down the road to ASDA or the uni library without full slap involved ;)

i spend about 4 times as long as my housemates on my make-up (ive dont understand the whole 10 minute face routine?!), but its all worth it! getting up that extra hour earlier means a brighter day + a ton more confidence in myself!!

Leighton Meester is the latest catcher of my eye... she always seems to flawless + fresh! i love this harsh winged eye + cheery lip look...

THE Fabulous Lauren Luke <3

So i came across Lauren Luke & her AMAZIN' make-up looks a while ago now, but i actually found time 2 try 1 this morning... i LOVE make-up & enjoy learnin' as much as possible & i can honestly say i have neva learnt as much as i did in her short videos!! The looks are fabulous & actually do-able!! SOOO many of the youtube make-up 'gurus' are just unrealistic & talk like they've swallowed a beauticians dictionary! Lauren Luke makes u feel like at eases, almost like a mate sat in her room, havin' a natter, getting ready 4 a night out ;)

This morning i tried the 'Miley Cyrus Party in the USA' look (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pz3wsglAlN0)! I LOVED IT!! felt like a princess all day!! there's nothing like feeling flawless in your make-up 2 give yourself a boost :)

Here's Lauren's photo of the look::

Here's MY attempt (note i did this @ 9 o'clock this mornin but didnt take the photo 'till like an hour ago so most of it had worn by then)::

Im was soooo impressed that as i was taking my make-up off this evening i culdnt resist trying another, more ambitious look!! i NEVER wear greens, i dont mind them on others i just neva thought it suited me... but doing this 'Barbie Cutsie Eyes with Greens & Pinks' look, i am officially a green eyeshadow convert ;)

Here's Lauren's Example::

Here's MY attempt::

I am OFFICIALLY ADDICTED 2 Lauren Luke!! Down 2 earth, hilarious, sweet & uber-talented!! Every1 check her out @ http://www.youtube.com/user/panacea81#g/u!!

Here's wishing Lauren Luke all the luck in the world! Look's like shes already going places xoxo

Perfect Match

Camilla Belle & Alexander McQueen were evidently made 4 each other!! the flawless hair, make-up, heels! i dont usually (well, EVER!) go 4 ocean tones (blues & greens) + im not sure how the flesh tone sections of the dress go, but none-the-less i love it! correction: i love HER in it!!! (it must b nice 2 be talked about as something other than an Jonas Brother ex! lol)

this shot is also flawless... how the other half live! Huh?! xoxo

Olivia P.

The Sartorialist stricks stunning again...

Olivia P., from 'The City', was snapped by the famous inspiration in London. I REALLY am not of fan of the bitchiness towards Whitney on the show, but even i cant deny how flawlessly fabulous she always is!!

there isnt 1 thing off about this entire look... toned 2 perfection legs, glowing hair, tan with not even a hint of orange, amazingly embellished jacket, fabulous rouche skirt, all pulled 2gether with staple white vest, chunky jewlerry + show stopping clutch!! O + the perfect ankle boots! ;)

well i hate her, but u gotta love the look xoxo
