Last Friday Honey turned 3, I can't believe it! She still seems like a baby to me (I guess she always will be to be honest..) but yeah. She will have been with us 3 years at Christmas. Gone so quick. We decided to take photos to celebrate.. : )



I also pestered Matt so much recently about taking me on his motorbike, he finally gave in yesterday. However, I wasn't allowed anywhere near it in my normal clothes & ended up looking like a multi-coloured Michelin man. He took me to a biker cafe (like this one) - which was hilarious. Even with all my 'biker clothes' on, I was still wearing my heels & I swear I was getting the weirdest looks. : ' )

 

How was your weekend? : )

An Autumn Walk

 

Slightly different post this week. I thought I'd show you some photos from a walk I went on with Matt last weekend. It's the perfect weather at the moment, slightly chilly but not freezing & the leaves are slowly changing colour. So beautiful where I live. : ) 

 

Oh & who can resist a couple of blackberries on a walk (even if most of them were bright red & sour!)

 

* Please ask if you'd like to use any of my photos & link them back to me! Thanks! : )

Skylash

Mascaras have always been a problem for me. My natural eyelashes are very small & straight, so finding the right mascara is a bit of a pain. I love having long lashes but getting to an acceptable standard for me is really difficult. After hearing so much about Skylash, I decided to give it a go.

 

 

First of, let me just say the packaging is too damn cute. I love the little skyscraper & how striking it looks against the white background.

 

The wand is also amazing, it has one long & one short side of bristles & is flexible.

 

 

The shorter bristles are designed to give you volume & the long side is to increase the length of your eyelashes.

 

It's a total bargain - £3.99 (currently an offer in Boots!) I just couldn't resist.

 

& look at my lashes! This was after I applied two coats.

 

 

So pleased with this product - do you have a favourite mascara?

I always look back at week in photos & I'm amazed how much food I photograph. Maybe that's because I eat alot, or just because I love taking pictures of food. I don't actually know..

 

It's Friday, yay! First day off in a week & back in tomorrow so I'm making the most of it today. Going to pick up Pete in a minute, think we're having a chilled day & watching Parent Trap. Such a good film.

 

What have you got planned for the weekend lovelies?

Topshop Lipstick - Pillow Talk

I've seen so many people rave about Topshop lipsticks, I couldn't resist picking up one on my last trip to Brighton. It annoys me how small my local Topshop is, it doesn't have a beauty section at all, so I either have to order online or just scoop some up when I venture out of town. : )

 

 

After a lot of debating, I decided to buy Pillow Talk, a gorgeous matte pink shade.

 

 

If you've been reading my blog for a while now, or know me personally, you'll know I adore a good lipstick. Especially a pink one. The shade, & smell just got me hooked. One thing I will say about the lipstick, is it is quite drying. If you're like me & have naturally dry lips (especially made worse in Winter) you'll need to apply this lipstick with a balm. I usually apply the balm under & on top of the lipstick, just to give it a natural gloss on the matte & keep my lips looking healthy.

 

Have you tried any of the Topshop lipsticks? I've already got Brighton Rock on my wishlist.. : )
