On the first day of Christmas .... Tra la la la la, la la la laaaaaaaaa ...

 

I'm well and truly embracing Christmas this year! Yesterday i spent the day doing Christmas crafts and putting up a little pink tree with the boyfriend's little girl. We made angels and Santa's out of toilet roll tubes!

 

I put together a little Christmas Wishlist ... i don't for one second think I'll ever get a Chanel bag but hey, aim high ;)

 

Up until yesterday i didn't think there was anything i wanted for Christmas except maybe an iPad but a quick late night online window shop proved very fruitful and i found some little gems that I'd like to see in my stocking!

 

Anything Santa doesn't bring I'll add to my birthday list which is only 2 months away now, ha.

 

Also, i just need to add this was my first attempt at a product collage and I'm quite impressed. Teaching myself basic Photoshop skillz at half 7 on a Sunday morning is not what i envisioned but at least i achieved something this weekend :p

Celeb Style Stealer: Cameron Diaz FOTD

Hey dolls,

Today i thought I'd try something new and recreate a celeb make-up look. I picked out a few celebrities who i admire and decided to have a play around ... there's so many i want to try I'm thinking this could become a mini-series on The Notebook!

I opted for Cameron Diaz as she always looks effortlessly beautiful and has a 'barely-there' make-up look which is quite different from my usual style.

Cameron Diaz:

My version:

I used:

Maybelline Dream Satin Liquid Foundation - 021 Nude

A pale pink Primark blusher mixed with Benefit's High Beam

MaxFactor's False Lash Effect Waterproof Mascara - Black

17 Lipstick - Red (it's super old and they've changed the packaging since so I'm not sure what style it is I'm afraid) and a slick of clear gloss

I really like this look as it's simple and looks effortless - i do feel rather naked without my trusty kohl eyeliner though!!

What do you think of this Cameron Diaz inspired look? Is it a keeper?

xoxo
