Like A Bad Star, I'm Falling Faster Down To Her ... OOTD/EOTD

Thursday, 7 April 2011

Evening to all my beauties, whats up?!

Another Outfit/Eyes of the Day post (it's actually from yesterday as i stayed at the bf's last night and i was without camera and decent mirrors to even attempt some nice makeup - plus i was mega sleepy!)

Unfortunately during the week near enough all my outfits are for work - i'd love to wear all my floaty dresses and short shorts but i have to dress semi-smart and professional (so they believe i know what i'm doing ;) ha)


I wore a simple black skirt and added a deep purple snake skin and gold buckle belt to it. As the skirt is quite short (and my fake tan regime hasnt truly begun yet!) i wore black tights and matching little black ballet pumps. I adore my silvery/blue/grey shirt! I picked it up just after Christmas in New Look and the first time i wore it i teamed it with wet look leggings, heels and a blazer - it looks amazing :)


My camera couldnt quite pick up my eyeshadow look as it was fairly sheer ...




Eyes: MUA - Shade 16 Matt (very light, almost white, pink) and 17's Vintage Love Perfect Pastels palette (i chose the goldy mink colour)
Mascara: Maybelline's Great Lash - Blackest Black and 17's Va Va Voom Volume Mascara
Eyeliner: Barry M's Khol pencil

Few pics of something new i'm trying with my hair:


I love the messy boho 'bird's nest' look but i just cant seem to do it right....

What do you guys wear to work?

OOTD & FOTD ...

Tuesday, 5 April 2011

So I had planned to do a FOTD/OOTD post this morning and took some pics in a hurry while getting ready for work, but once i returned home and uploaded the pics the camera devils had been at work and turned the photo's hideous and stupid looking, dontcha just hate that!!? :(

I decided to post them anyway as i wanted to get more of these type of notes on my blog and i fear if i delay doing them in the hope of getting perfect pics then i may never get started! So here goes ...

FOTD:


Foundation: Maybelline Dream Satin Liquid - 021 Nude
Blush: Models Own - Cheeky Pink
Powder: Random one i've had for so long that the branding has worn off
Bronzer: Rimmel Sun Shimmer Bronzing Compact Powder - Medium
Eyeshadow: 17 Eye Dazzle - Good As Gold and 17 Glitter - Chalice
Eyeliner: Maybelline Gel Eyeliner & Barry M's Khol pencil
Mascara: Maybelline Great Lash - Blackest Black and 17's Va Va Voom Volume Mascara - Black
Lips: Avon lipstick - Moonbeam



Excuse the darkness in the pics - that side of my bedroom is mainly black and Cadbury's purple!

OOTD:


This is just a simple work outfit  (didnt want anything too fancy today as i had lots of crawling around and messy jobs to get on with - oh yes, my job screams glamour!)


Black trousers: New Look
Pink belt: Primark
Peach tee: New Look
Floral cardi: Primark
Brown brogues: Primark
Necklace: Primark


I'm still getting to grips with my outfit pics in sucha cramped room so bear with me (i used to be able to take decent pics in my old bedroom about 3 years ago but i had much more space to play with!)


Hit me up with your tips for better pics girlies :)
