Hey everyone,
Yesterday I attended the first press event I've been to in months, to view Boohoo's latest collection. Being surrounded by so many passionate and fashionable people has really given me a good boost of motivation and inspiration! I'm hoping to redesign my blog layout over Easter, and I shall hopefully be returning to posting more than once a week.

Hey everyone,
When Irresistible Me* asked me if I'd like to try out their top quality Royal Remy hair extensions, at first I was a bit dubious. I have extremely thick hair naturally, and it's fair to say that hair extensions have a bit of a bad reputation what with all the photos of people with dodgy hair! That said, after a recent haircut, my hair was starting to look and feel way too thin for my liking. I usually get it thinned out, but this time it felt much thinner than usually! I've always wanted long and luscious locks, so I figured now would be the perfect time to try out extensions for the first time, and I can happily say my opinion on hair extensions has changed for the better.

Hey everyone,
IsaDora* is a brand that have been making waves on the blogging scene over the past few months- and it's easy to see why. I'll admit, I had never tried any IsaDora products previously, but now that I have, I can understand the hype! IsaDora are a Swedish brand that have actually been around since 1983 and they offer a wide range of high quality products. I've been putting some of their products to the test for the past month, and some amazing products have emerged. Here are some of my favourites!
•IsaDora Protect Face Primer: I usually only have time to apply a primer if I'm heading out on a night out, but lately I've been applying this every couple of days. What I like the most about this primer is that it has the consistency of a moisturiser- it's almost like a moisturiser and a primer all in one! When applied, it sinks into the skin beautifully and allows my makeup to glide seamlessly on top. Not only that, but it also has SPF30, which is something we all need a bit of all year round, not just in Summer! €21.25
•IsaDora Color Correcting Concealer: This is the first time I've tried one of those 'colour correcting' concealer palettes that many people rave about, and I'm in love! I was a bit of sceptical of the violet shade at first, but as you can see from the picture below, it's already gotten plenty of use. The palette comes with an anti-dullness shade (blue), regular concealer, a highlighter and a shade for dark circles (yellow). I'm pleased to say I'm now a colour correcting convert and it makes such a difference when applied under my foundation. Each shade is extremely creamy and long-lasting, and I can definitely see myself reaching for this palette a lot in the future. €21.25
•IsaDora Face Sculptor: Another pretty palette- yay! I'm a huge fan of contouring palettes, as they're so easy to throw in your makeup bag without any extra bulk. This palette in particular comes with highlighter, bronzer and blusher, and they're all super pigmented. A light hand is needed with the bronzer in particular, but luckily this means a little goes a long way and you are getting value for money! The only thing I'm not too keen on is the glitter flecks that run through the bronzer, as I personally prefer a matte bronzer for contouring. €25.50
•IsaDora Twist Up Matt Lips: When my package of IsaDora goodies first arrived, I'll admit, I was extremely excited to see these 'chubby stick' lookalikes. I received three beautiful shades, but it's the shade 50 Naked that I've been wearing over and over again. Why, you ask? First of all, although it claims to be a matte lipstick it also says it has a 'satin soft feel', making it extremely moisturising and smooth on the lips, The durability is incredible, and the colour of it is just oh so pretty! €13.25
•IsaDora Eye Color Bar: Last but not least is a beautiful six-shade eyeshadow palette in the shade '60 nude essentials'. This palette features six shades of wearable nudes, ranging from matte to shimmer. They're extremely buttery and velvety to touch, making them really easy to blend- score! I love wearing one of the champagne colours with the lighter of the dark browns in the crease for a quick daytime look. €17.50

Hey everyone,
Something I've noticed popping up again and again on the likes of Pinterest and Tumblr is the term "wanderlust". According to the image above, wanderlust is "a strong desire for or impulse to wander or travel and explore the world". Although I don't talk about it here a lot, something I truly love doing is travelling. I long for the day when I have my own income, and I can pick a destination to just spontaneously travel to. I love going to the airport, browsing in duty free and anticipating the journey that awaits me. I love the flying itself- even the dodgy plane food!During my 17 year old life I've been to many cities and countries, for example Düsseldorf, Barcelona, Orlando and London. I can only hope that list continues to grow and grow.
