Naughty Buys








what can I say, I needed none of this, besides the brush, I just wanted it all.

This is the first hair brush I've had to buy in 10 year, my last brush has been broken for ages and I just suddenly decided I could no longer deal with the broken handle, so I bought this brush, It was £12, which I think is stupid for a brush, but the one that lasted me 10 years cost £5 so I figured that this one should last a while at least 25 years!

each of the nail varnish are from ASDA and are only £1 each, I wanted a bunch of neutral colours for work. However no my work place has stopped all nail varnishes, and I'm gutted as Ive only just got my nails to a decent place and started to enjoy using lots of colours and I can only do it now if I'm off for a good few days!
 
The waistcoat style cardigan was from a charity shop and was only £1.50, It will look great with a coloured t-shirt, it has studded details on the collar and is fun. The 60's style dress was also from a charity shop and cost only £4.

Shoes, I love shoes and I have way too many, however these don't count towards my allotted amount as they were an absolute steal. They are both from primark, the peach suede heels were only £3 and the gold glitter ones were £6, less than £10 for two pairs of shoes is a bargain. I also picked up a candle that is quite nice, but not very strong.

Rimmel Apocalips Lip Lacquer Review



Rimmel Apocalips Lip Lacquer in Nova, RRP £5.99
The intense rich colour of a lipstick, enhanced by a satin smooth shine.The earth-shattering lip lacquer from Rimmel London.

I picked this little beaut up with Laura, it was part of a 3 for 2 offer, Lots have been said about apocalips, but ever up for trying out new things, I wanted to give it a go to.

This does not disappoint, it is very vibrant, the pictures do not give justice to just how much this colour pops. It is extremely glossy too, but after a lot of wear the shine does wear of, however the colour stays and stays. For a penny short of £6 this is a fantastic item, you get the wear and colour and get to make a statement. The brush is easy to use and has a well in the middle that collects the product for optimum coverage.

It comes in a range of colours that I spent ages swatching, from what looks like some pale
 neutral colours that are nothing less than bright and shiney to reds that are vivid and eye-catching. Lots of choice for a very little price, a lipstick with the high gloss of a lip gloss, really its all just the best of two worlds.

Turning 27

Monday was a normal day to most people, went to work, looked after the kids, not for me. For me it was my 27th Birthday and to be fair it was one of the best birthdays Ive had in a long time. A lot of my birthdays since I was 18 have been ok but not good. This year I was spoiled and am still looking forward to one more night out, courtesy of Laura as the final celebration.





 Lots of presents, went out for a meal and just generally had lots of fun, roll on next year!

Bones

Picture I have unfortunately not been posting in the last week this is due to my sudden and inexplicable need to watch bones.

I caught up on season  and that was It I had to start watching them from the beginning, It has taken over my life in the last week and besides normal things such as work and cleaning all my other time has gone into watching this show.

I Love Love Love Bones, the story lines and the interpersonal work dynamic is fantastic, plus David Boreanaz is one sexy man, so sexy that hes one of the only men that my husband would not turn down.
