Merry (belated) Christmas and a happy new year everyone! Hopefully 2013 will be a good one. I went to see a ballet last wednesday, The Nutcracker, with my mam. I dance myself, although not ballet (I used to, now I do technical jazz ad hiphop, but Ive done irish, modern theatre, ballroom & latin too). It was AMAZING! I have wanted to see a ballet for SO long now, so I was delighted to go. Everything was fab- the dancers, the dancing, the costumes, the music. It was just so magical and really took me back to my childhood days. Now I wish I was a ballerina myself!
ANYWAYS back to the outfit. I also wore this outfit Christmas day. The clutch I borrowed from my mam (I thought it was very vintage) and the rest of my outfit is a mixture of Penneys and Catch.
Enjoy!

Hey everyone!
I decided to pop into Lush in Dublin last week during my visit to town. I had read so many reviews on the products and have wanted to try some out for ages!
As soon as I stepped into the shop, a sweet aroma of flowers filled the room. The walls were colourful, with endless shelves of bathbombs and other bath and shower necessities. It took me a while to choose a bathbomb, but in the end I chose a pink one decorated with little flowers on top.
After paying, I was given a bag to put it in, and it was much bigger than the product itself, but i looked fab! The girl also threw in a Lush magazine, which I thought was really cool because it was printed like a newspaper.
The bathbomb itself fizzed immediately in the bath, and it too smelt delicous. It turned the water bright pink, and made my skin feel really soft.
I was so impressed with my product (however small) and I know I'll definitely be shopping there again soon! Perfect (and cheap) for christmas gifts for friends or family.

Hey everyone!
Currently posting from the train.. Yes Iarnrod Eireann has free wifi now! Its crazy how modern technology is improving.
Why am I on the train? Well, I'm on my way to the ONLY exclusive launch in Dublin tonight! I won two passes off the wonderful Leanne Woodfull (from thunderandthreads.blogspot.ie). She is one of my favorite bloggers so it was definitely an honour to win them from her.
I decided to paint my nails like this, as they are inspire by Lana Del Rey on the cover of Vogue UK a few months ago- and I LOVE Lana Del Rey. I have done them before with red tips but thought I'd try plum this time instead. The plum nail varnish, for the tips, is the Berry nail varnish I posted about a while ago- the shiny, pearl-pink underneath is by Sally Hensen, and the silver stripes were made with a glittery, silver nail art pen by Kiss.
I'll post about the launch when I get home! So excited ;p

I'm late again to post I know, but I was sick the last few days and was unable to post unfortunately!
I went to see a pantomime on Sunday in town and really enjoyed it- especially since my stageschool were performing it! It was great craic and the atmosphere was brilliant. I wore my new coat (whch I love SO SO much!) which I got in Penneys for only €15 down from €31! But of course no-one else has to know that ;)
I also wore a pair of heeled knee high boots which aren't in the picture but Ill try post a picture of another time.
Enjoy!

Hey everyone! Long time no post (well- a week)
So me and and mam decided to take an unscheduled trip up to Tesco Extra the other day, and there were some great special offers! We also got a head start on some gift buying (only 25 days guys!!) for dad and my sister, Sarah as there were amazing gift sets there! I spent literally ages deciding, there were so many different things to choose from.
ANYWAYS, back to what I bought. I ha been wanting to dye my hair (again, might I add) mahogony (again) for ageeees, so I decided to buy the same brand as last time, but with two boxes instead - my hair is immensely thick and doesn't take colour well.
I decided it was time to get back into my skinfare regime (yes, I had let myself go, Im sorry!) and I needed new moisturiser anyways, so Nivea was what I chose- I'm forever on a budget!
Lastly, I also bought some dry shampoo on sale- perfect for when I'm in a rush, especially on school days..
