Pink, Prom and Perfect Dresses!

Heyy Gals,
So as you probably know it was my high school Prom a few weeks ago and I just thought I'd share with you some of the photos from the night and what dress and style I decided to go for.

Before there was any mention of Prom at school I knew that I wanted to go for a 50s style tea length dress. I have always appreciated and adored the pure class, innocence and elegance that the 50s style possesses. I did have a hard time finding this style of dress but after scowering many online stores and prom dress shops I found a large bridal store that stocked a wide range of dresses not that far from where I live. It was here that I found this gorgeous dress. It was originally a halter neck dress but I preferred it without the strap and so they were able to detach it for me.  My dress was also originally in a very pale blue shade, but I also chose to have it remade in a baby pink. In this colour the dress also resembles the dress that Lorraine where's in Back To The Future when she goes to the The Enchantment Under The Sea Dance with Marty's Dad... which just so happens to be my favourite film.

You can't tell on these pictures but the dress also has an overlay of ivory dots on it which exemplifys the 50s flair. My peep toe heels are from New Look and my clutch bag is from Next.

Again, sticking with the 50s theme I opted for a winged eyeliner and a matte red lipstick. In order to achieve this striking colour I used a Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet- you can find my review of this linked below.

I absolutely love this moment that my Mum captured between me and my Auntie. And I thought I'd share it with you because you can see my pin up curls clearer and it might help you if any of you are trying to find a photo of a 50s pin up hairstyle.

I had a lovely time with my friends at Prom. Everyone looked fabulous and I wish everyone at my school and anyone who's just left high school all the best for the future. May you have a fun filled Summer and a brilliant start at whatever you go on to do.

Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet REVIEW

Hey Guys, so today I thought I'd review the Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet in shade 01 for you. I wore this at Prom on Thursday as I went for a classic 50s style dress and so I opted for this well pigmented striking pillar box red colour.
                  I heard about these in one of Gabby's (Velvet Ghosts) videos a long time ago, I can't remember which one, but I have wanted one ever since. Gabby said that her favourites was this shade and some of the more nude colours. However, I haven't delved into the nude shades yet, although I'll definitely be purchasing more of these.
                 Firstly, the packaging of this product is truly gorgeous. I think what makes it look so classy is the clear glass effect tube (I don't know whether I'm describing this properly) with the black simple typography over the top. Adding to this the bright red lip-gloss-type-product and you can tell that the product screams sophistication. For a drug store product Bourjois have made it as classic and cosmopolitan as possible.
                The application of this product is made easy with the chunky doe-foot applicator.However, because I went for a bright colour some extra care always has to be taken. Because I wanted my lip to be as perfect as possible I decided to opt for a red lip liner. I used the Maxfactor colour elixir lip liner in shade 10, Red Rush. I think if I were to use my Rouge Edition Velvet in an ordinary everyday circumstance then I wouldn't have used the liner but just to be on the safe side I thought it was necessary. 
                The finish on this product is a beautiful matte look, Although if you prefer your lips shiny then this product does have a ''mirror like shine'' effect range. I personally prefer a matte finish so that's why I chose to get this one.
                Finally, this product seems to last forever. When I was at prom I didn't feel like I had to top my lip colour up or check it every 2 seconds. In fact, I didn't top it up once while I was there (4 hours) although I probably should have done it once just so the colour was still popping. The most amazing thing about this must have product is that it does not transfer! I repeat IT DOESN'T TRANSFER! I think there is nothing worse than when you wear a red lipstick n it transfers onto the glass your using. I really hate that.

Comment down below if you hate that too and if you've ever used any of these products before let me know your views on them.

I'm Free!

Bonjour Gals,
So I'm free!! No more exams. I had my last one on Monday- media, I think it went ok although I didn't colour it most of my storyboard. Hey ho I can't change it now. Comment down below if you had your media exam on Monday and how you think it went. 
                  
So now that exams are all out of the way we can begin to think about Summer and how we're gonna spend these next 11-12 weeks. woooooooo. I have got so many things planned for this month and of course I'm going to be blogging about all of it. With things as simple as reading all the Harry Potter books (surprisingly something that I've never done), aswell as dishing out 100 compliments in a day. I'm going to leave you a sample of things that you can expect me to be blogging bout in the next few weeks below.

- Tie Dye some T-shirts
- Make  a Candy pizza
- Get in shape
- Learn to cook (I am quite a poor chef to be honest)
- Tie messages to balloons and let them go
- Dye my hair blue! 
- Watch all the Harry Potter movies one after the other- a whole 22 hours!!
- Make a YouTube channel. (maybe?! Please show me some support with this because it's quite scary)


Let me know down below what cool things you'll be getting up to this summer, I'd love to hear about them.

American Goodies!

As you may know, if you follow me on Twitter or Pinterest my brother and his girlfriend recently went to America for a fun packed city escape to New York. While they were there they bought some lovely things for moi and so I decided to share them with you in this post.

This a bag which they bought me from the Hershey store. As you will tell when you read on I have a real LOVE for Hershey's chocolate so this is why they bought me this. It is quite a large, structured bag, similar to the 'bag for life's' you can get here in the UK. I particularly love how the image of the cartoon chocolate looks quite retro.

Maybe, I should explain before I talk about this one. Previous, to when my brother and Kayleigh went into the Hershey store they had been struggling of what to bring me back from America so when they went into this chocoholics heaven they thought they would buy me a lot of Hershey stuff because they know that I absolutely love it. Plus, over here where I live it is quite expensive as everything is imported :(

So pictured above is a giant Hershey Kiss. Yep 198g of solid milk Hershey chocolate. It looks so pretty in it's box though so I really don't know when I will actually eat it.

This t-shirt I actually asked if they could bring me back.It's a Guardians Of The Galaxy burn out tee from Forever 21. I am in LOVE with this. It so brilliant- it's going to be perfect to throw on in the summer with some shorts and your hair in a cute messy bun. If any of you gals have watched this amaaaaaazing film then drop me a comment below- I think it's great. I watched it last night actually. It is one of the only Marvel films that I actually enjoy apart from the new 'SpiderMan' Movies but that's mainly because Andrew Garfield is super hot.

They also brought me back this amazing jumper that is just perfect for the spring time. It's a jumper but it's not really thick- I just know it's going to be brilliant for them mornings where it's freezing but by dinner time it's really warm. This was from American Eagle Outfitters.

They bought me these typical tourist souvenirs. Sorry if your are from America and arelooking at this and thinking why the hell is she getting excited about this stuff but yeah, I love these.

The cute key ring pictured to the left is really nice and you'll probably see it on my backpack in some pictures soon. I don't know whether you gals know but I have this collection of snow-globes that I've had since I was like 9 maybe and it just keeps on growing, so much so that I have to keep the majority in a box and swap and change them once in a while. So yep, this is another gorgeous snow-globe to add to my growing collection.

And finally the last two things-both Hershey of course. They bought me 2 classic bags of Hershey kisses (my favourite), 'Cookies n Cream' and milk chocolate, and a huge bottle of Hershey's chocolate flavour syrup. I can't wait to try out this syrup on pancakes or waffles... with strawberries. Mmm. Keep checking my Instagram and you'll probably see one of them within the next week :)

Thanks for reading, remember to share my blog with your friends if you enjoyed this and follow me on my other sites. 

I now have a Tumblr so give that a cheeky visit if you want
