mac rebel
Hey everyone,

I had a super busy weekend which ment little time for blogging unfortunately. I attended the Coldlilies Fashion Talks on Saturday, which were so informative, featuring Irish fashion sensations Concrete Collar, Conor Clinch and Natalie B. Coleman. I love attending fashion events, I always find them super beneficial, especially seeing as I'm still unsure what ares I want to study in after school. This is the outfit I wore, featuring some pieces I have already featured in this outfit, and also my new Schuh boots. This skull scarf that I bought on eBay was my savior last Winter. I like to think that it's quite similar to a legendary Alexander McQueen one, but alot lighter [and cheaper!]. Let me know what you think!

Hey everyone,

A few weeks ago, I decided to treat myself to an item that I would think of as expensive, tasteful, and in every blogger's makeup bag- a mac lippie. As a self confessed lipstick addict, I have owned a mac lipstick before, however bringing it to school and losing it is NOT an ideal situation [yet it happened to me]. There's nothing that I love more than berry tones in the Fall. Last A/W, Kate Moss for Rimmel in shade 107 was my savior, but this year I thought I'd look for a new one. I know that 107 has been compared to Rebel alot, but I think they're completely different tones! [107- more red, 'rebel;= more pink, in my opinion]

Rebel is a stunning berry lipstick that has a pink/deep purple undertone when applied. I would describe it as a dark raspberry-like colour. It has a satin finish, so it's not too matte nor too glossy-exactly what I was looking for, seeing as I have alot of matte lipsticks anyways! It feels so creamy on the lips when applied. This might sound rather odd, but it actually tastes lovely too! 



[excuse my cracked lips- winter weather has finally hit!]

Retailing at around €19 in Irish stores, it is a bit pricey, especially if you're used to buying high-street lipsticks [like me!]. I definitely think it's worth the money- even after eating and drinking it was still on for hours later. It's so pigmented and without doubt a perfect shade for Autumn! I think I've been reopened to the world of higher-end makeup. Time to get saving!

What do you think of MAC lipsticks? Will you be buying 'Rebel'?
