Tweet Why hai there! Did you have a nice new year? I am back to the work grind but my body is not happy about it, what with the snooze tastic, late night filled Christmas and New Year break. Plus I am ill! Feeling so weak it’s unreal, but you gotta do what you gotta do. I had a bit of a rest from blogging and am not more or less back on it! So, Mr C has been a {Read More}
Tweet *25th December – Space NK seem to have added items to the sale sections, including some Chantecaille, Laura Mercier, By Terry, Shu Uemura and their own brand fragrances! I picked up a gloss, a Shu Uemura palette and some of their 15ml perfumes which were reduced from £18 to £5!** Ok, ok so Christmas Eve is supposed to be a time for eating bombay mix and watching awful tele, but hey, if you’re already full to the brim and {Read More}
Tweet A few weeks ago, Mr C took me to Budapest for my birthday. I don’t go on holiday very often; I find the whole process quite stressful really, but once I am away I feel much more zen! My opinion of Budapest or Buda-pesht as our driver would say; it’s very scenic, very very cold, and a real mix of the old and new. Rickety old trolley buses pass many, many Starbucks branches. Best sight by far, was The Terror Museum. It was {Read More}
Tweet You know I have been so busy this year that I completely missed the blog’s 4th birthday, which was on October 3rd. I can’t believe it’s been four years since I started blogging. Things have changed a lot for beauty blogging, but I still like to keep it simple. I also still have lots to say but hope to try different things with it soon. When I have more time! It’s also my birthday today. See this cat? He {Read More}
Tweet Earlier this week I had a killer busy day, one of those where you’re booked up with appointments from 8 in the morning til 9pm at night. I love it, although in my experience, by the end of the day I am a sweaty, greasy, fumbling hot mess. Indeed, following directions and getting around is not my forte. But this time I wanted to be prepared for the inevitable getting sweaty and lost! Without carrying far too much stuff {Read More}
Tweet Selfridges is (was?) one of my favourite shops to amble through aimlessly after a hard day at work, and obviously my first love was the make up floor, which was at ground level, very handy, no trying to find the right lift (elevator) to take you down and back up again. Second favourite department is food of course, especially the deli and their amazing queen olives. Anyhoo, for some reason Selfridges Manchester Exchange Square (which is in the city centre) decided {Read More}
Tweet I remember having a conversation not so long ago with a SA on a Japanese make up brands’ counter in Selfridges, where she told me that Chinese customers were great because they usually shopped in groups, and bought in force ‘without even asking the price’. As she was saying this, 3 young Chinese girls were jabbering on in Mandarin, in matching puffa jackets, and swatching nail polishes to their hearts content. I looked around and thought; this place is {Read More}
Tweet It’s another Friday, Friday – is it just me or does time pass quickly towards the end of the year?! Anyway I was thinking about what websites I visit on a daily basis – I am a internet addict, there is no doubt. I do a lot of my work online, I do everything online practically! Everyone has their must visit sites right? Well most of mine are shopping sites, which makes it very. hard. to. be. frugal. So {Read More}
