Review | Essie "Cocktail Bling"

29 Jan 2013

About two weeks ago Boots sent me a £2 off voucher for any Essie nail polish, as it would be rude to not take up the offer I took one for the team and trotted off down to Boots voucher in hand. I'm a saint, I know ;) I ended up choosing Cocktail Bling, which on first glance at the bottle looked like a very light grey. I know this seems...

A Sunday Catch-Up.

27 Jan 2013

Sundays are one of my favourite days; lunch always seems a very long and delicious affair, there's always time to complete to-do lists and with the sun peeking out today it really did feel like Spring was on its way. (I'm dis-regarding the fact that a thunderstorm has started as I type this....) This week I've been pretty busy, and consequently I...

2013; A Jar Full of Memories.

20 Jan 2013

If any of you are avid Pinterest users then I'm sure you're familiar with these memory jars, but for those of you who aren't I wanted to share this really cute idea with you :) Basically, last weekend I was perusing Pinterest for crafty ideas and came across this!

Dress It Up...

17 Jan 2013

Dress It Up. Its the name of my blog, but what do I actually mean by it? I love getting dolled up, wearing pretty things and generally making quite an effort with clothes. I so wish I could do the 'casual' look, but it just doesn't suit me. I literally look like I've rolled out of bed rather than spending hours to look like I've just rolled...

Review | Loreal Colour Riche Nail Polish in 505 Wild Purple

11 Jan 2013

The other day when shopping with the best friend I needed some new foundation (review to come soon!) and as there was a Buy One Get One Half Price offer on all Loreal products in Boots I felt I would have been silly to pass it up! Or that's the excuse I'm using anyway. I settled on a new nail varnish, as I felt I hadn't bought...

Review | Louise Gray for Topshop Mascara

8 Jan 2013

I've always admired Louise Grays make-up collection for Topshop, the products always seem really high quality, used interesting colours and had super pretty packaging! However, until very recently I only actually owned the Make-Up Brushes from the collection which I mentioned in my first blog post here. Most of the line is now discontinued...

2012; The Last Few Days.

4 Jan 2013

Happy New Year!! The last week has been a super busy one for me, with one of my best friends staying with me for New Years, and my boyfriend staying for a whole week! Its been proper fun but, as you can imagine has left me little time to blog! Therefore, as a little disclaimer this post is going to be very picture heavy from here on with my New...
