My Christmas Dress

Hey guy's
Im so excited my christmas dress came in the post :), I didn't actually think it would come in time as I ordered it from ebay during the whole 'christmas rush'. I'm always so last minute and just hoped for the best. And lucky it came on the day excepted day. So Thank the seller FantasiaBoutique for such a great service and dispatch.

So heres a look at the dress
Plus postage it cost just under £19 from FantasiaBoutique, And it has a gorgeous gold detailing. My bad pictures and smudged mirror are not doing the dress any justice.
The dress comes in all the colours above. You can have a better look here.

This is just a quick post as i still have to go out and buy a few more presents. I hope everyone is enjoying there holidays

Sleek True colour Lipstick in Cherry (Review)

Hey Guys
So yesterday I brought a new lipstick. I was looking for something to wear to a christmas party I have coming up and wanted to sort out my look from now.
Swatch 
So as it is the festive season and warm colours are on trend, I wanted a warm colour that would go with my black & gold embellished dress. So as i was looking for a plum-red shade i was very pleased when I came across this Cherry 790 lipstick by Sleek in superdrugs. I love the colour and think it matched what i had in mind. And as its by sleek, its only £4.99 :)
My Review - Sleek True colour Cherry 790 (Sheen) 
So here's what I thought about it after wearing it all day today
Pros
  • Long lasting colour, didn't really need to reapply not even after eating 
  • The formula is very creamy which makes it very moisturising 
  • Small and sleek tube easy to carry around in makeup bag
  • Great price at only £4.99
  • Unscented, so doesn't have that weird lipstick smell I have experienced with other cheaper brands 
  • Great Pigmentation 
Cons
  • I really don't have much to complain about



So overall I am very pleased with this purchased, I got a lot of compliments from friends which is an added bonus. And it held up during this cold weather. I had used sleek eyeshadow previously but didn't think to use their lipstick but now I'm glad i did :) Does anyone else use sleeks lipsticks or buy any other of the Sleek products?

I hope everyone is enjoying the christmas season, Take Care

My New Wellies :)

Hey Guys, 
So In london its been freezing the last couple of days, and when I woke up this morning I saw so loads of my friends facebook and bbm status' on how its snowing. Although I didn't see any, there was a lot of frost and ice outside my house. The roads are quite slippery and winter is well and truly here. I've been looking for my old wellies for a while now, Maybe one of my cousins "borrowed" them as I cant manage to find them anywere, and thats were my stuff usually end up lol. 

So I decided to buy a new pair, so I'm ready for the winter weathers and here's what i got.  
 They are originally £45, but I only needed to pay £25 thanks to the £20 gift card I got in my December 2012 Elle issue, which i previously posted about.



They're so comfy, and I love the lace up at the front. There also available in Green, i was indecisive at first then i went with the black as i thought they'd go with more things.

You can check them out on the website here: Black Boots & Green Boots.
