001. This week has been such a whirlwind, So much for having a week or two off! Its been non stop gogogo! Yet I've still done none of my dissertation or my university work. This week I'm off to London tomorrow for my Giles Deacon thing, then if all goes to plan Im going to Liverpool on Friday for a event. I may even be in London on Saturday for the Witch event! Strange how well things are going at the moment, Its been a bit odd recently as I never really get asked to do stuff like this. I'm grateful though and it couldn't have come at a better time!
002. Bought a new foundation while I was in Birmingham on Thursday, If you follow me on Twitter you'll know my Macbook battery and charger broke so I had to dash off to get it fixed! I popped into Selfridges to get some foundation. Opted for the Laura Mercier Silk Creme foundation, I actually quite like it, the coverage is medium to full but not too heavy on the skin! I dont like that it doesn't apply well with any of the brushes I own, I hate using my fingers as I think its unhygenic (just my opinion, dont shoot me!). Im going to by a Sigma Flat Top Kabuki in the hope it will apply better! If not I'm gonna have to buy one of those sponge things? Beauty Blender?
003. NEW RINGS! Finally got some more stock in, I know its slow at the moment, but Im trying to get the right things for the shop so Im always in two minds about what samples to order before commiting to lots of stock! My turquoise rings have been a huge sucess, the large ones have nearly sold out and the small ones are quickly selling out too! More will be in next week though! The cross rings STILL haven't come, Its getting ridiculous now as I hate that you guys have to keep waiting for them! Like I've been saying, if you want a refund let me know and I'll do it asap!
004. I'd like this dress very much plz thanxxxx!
005. Follow Fashion Week special: Gem, Victoria, Michelle, Jen, Kristabel, Harriet, Kavita, Sara, Olivia, Georgie, Charli, Laura, Kirsty & Lara (Hope I remembered everyone I met/spoke to/saw!)

I love the rings! Have you done something with your eyebrows? Hope that's not being too cheeky there!
ReplyDeleteI have the Flat top Kabuki.. and it works wonders! Hope it works okay for you as well :) x
ReplyDeleteBows and Pearls
Your eyebrows look really good here!
ReplyDeleteThe Sigma Flat Top Kabuki should do, I know it does for me. Try either that or a 109 and it should really work.
Love the ring as well.

Awww I know I already said thank you on Twitter, for thank you (again!) for the linkage. Like I said (another again, hehe), was so lovely to meet you. I hope you have a brilliant time on Monday I'm genuinely really excited to hear about it.
ReplyDeletexoxo
aww thanks for the shout out lily, and following you don't have to love (removes gun from head) haha. Ohhh I'm so glad you have some events, it's rubbish when you miss out on things really looking forward to seeing your new look one. Oh BTW you are on the river island page thing, was on there style insider and spotted you on there :P
ReplyDeleteThat dress is lush, you love that colour would suit for share. I do like those tones but they hate my skin, oh well. I really want a ring, waiting till I have some money am so broke it's stupid. Hope you had a nice weekend kitten xxx
word verification is birth WTF ?!
Didn't know you sold the turquoise rings as well as the two-finger cross ones! Just ordered one ;) I love the prices because when you look at ones on eBay, bids normally push the price of these rings to like £15. And we do love a bargain, so thanks again! Check out my blog if you have time, thefashionverdict.blogspot.com
ReplyDeletedanielle x
Good luck for the events! I hoe they go well for you :)
ReplyDeleteI have a question about your rings. How/where do you actually get them? It sounds like you order them from somewhere? I know you say google things to get the answers, but I don't know what to google haha.
I'm just baffled as to how you get them, it's really confusing me.
I'm asking because I'd love to sell assessories and stuff, but I don't want to make them because I want them to look professional, not tacky but I don't know where to get those kind of products from, and I don't know what to look for either.
Could you maybe give me a few tips?
That dress is awesome, you should get it.
ReplyDeleteMy Heart Blogged
Gonna have a browse at the rings now! (;
ReplyDeleteAnd id also like that dress please haha

I have a sample of the Laura Mercier Silk Creme foundation, i'm having the same problem with applying it brushes. I actually have the Sigma flat top kabuki brush, but it's no good too, it's amazing for other foundations I have though :) I'm going to try the beauty blender, I have one somewhere ;)
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to receive the rings. xxx
Sounds like you had an amazing time, good choice on the outfit for the look show! Your choice of blogs is also brilliant this week!
ReplyDeleteHope you are well xx

I've been considering buying the Laura Mercier foundation for a while now! You're going to have to do a post to let us know if it's worth the money or not :)
ReplyDeleteYou look beautiful!

It was great to meet you too, such a shame it was so brief! We will make that restaurant one day!
ReplyDeleteI dont use my fingers either! i use a sponge that came with my foundation, but i have a brush kit but there not as soft as they used to be! need to invest in a new one<3
ReplyDeletehttp://sophsophsophie.blogspot.com/
Please follow! <3
wow pretty rings <3
ReplyDeleteGreat to see you at the Show again, hope New Look goes well - sounds exciting! Thanks for the mention here too, my blog is very pleased that you did that ;) x
ReplyDeleteHave you heard about this brush?
ReplyDeletehttp://www.sigmabeauty.com/product_p/f55.htm The effect that they make is really good but it depends on the coverage you'd like to have. This kind of brush provides rather light coverage but it looks natural! ;-)
Regards. :)
