OOTD: Going out for Ice-cream



Last night I went out for some ice-cream and I thought I'd share my ootd and makeup with you :)


I wore the dress from this haul, plain black tights, and a cropped black jacket from Valleygirl. The bag I wore was my pink Kate Hill bag from this post. 


For shoes I wore my black lace-up ankle boots.

For makeup I used Maybelline Colour Tattoo in Bad to the Bronze on the lids, and a medium brown in the crease and outer V. I wore Rimmel gel liner on my top lids and on my bottom lids and water line i wore a black Maybelline Pencil. For Mascara on the top lashes I wore Maybelline Falsies and on the bottom lashes I wore Rimmel's waterproof liner. For my brows I used a brown Essence pencil. for cheeks I wore Essence Blush Souffle and multi colour powder and for my lips I wore Essence ligloss Do a Floating Pirouette 03, all in this post.



For my hair I curled the ends with my straightener and sprayed it with Toni&Guy curl spray



Thanks for reading  and I hope you enjoyed my OOTD and makeup :)

Perfume, Luggage Tags and Clothes Haul



On Wednesday we finished early because we had a medications exam, so I felt like going shopping. I wanted to try a shop I recently found out about called Ally Fashion, and I also visited my usual Valleygirl and I found another small shop with a cheap dress.

h
Ally Fashion high-waisted jean shorts~ $29.99 

Valleygirl black playsuit ~ was $24.95, bought for $14.95

Xception clothes ~ $15.00

During the week I ordered these to luggage tags from Kate Hill.com for mum and I for our family trip to Queensland, Australia next year, I'm so excited!

The last thing on today's haul is the Katy Perry 'Meow!' perfume.



Mum got it as a Kris Kringle present but I keep using it because it smells so nice, so I thought I'd add it to this post. It's hard to describe the smell of it, but to me it's a mixture of vanilla and fruit. It smells soo good! and the packaging is so cute. You can get this from Priceline for $44.00 at the moment :)

Hope you enjoyed my haul!

Pink & Purple Peek-A-Boo Highlights!


Today I dyed part of my hair pink and purple!
I used Fudge Paint box Raspberry Beret (Pink) and Blueberry Hill (Purple)

The day before I tried to do peek-a-boo highlights with Schwarzkopf Live colour Rich Burgundy but as you can see it didn't work, so today I thought I'd try something I knew would work.



I didn't bleach my hair first, I just dyed my brown hair so it didn't work very well.

With my hair dye, gloves and foil I started dying my hair pink and purple!





This is the result:




After a couple of photos I straightened my hair so I could see what it looked like styled





A close-up of the colour


I showed Sabre but he just wanted to sleep :P




Only 2 weeks left of school, including 2 exams! So I better go study :( oh well nearly finished!

Peacock Inspired Nails

I adore the colours of peacock feathers and when I got the green, gold and blue glitter polish from Chi Chi (in my last post) I decided I'd try to do a peacock tutorial! I first tried painting the peacock feather, but it didn't turn out too nice, so then I tried this design and I loved it! I hope you do too :)
