FOTD and OOTD








Hey everyone!

Hope you've all had a great week!

As I've nearly recovered from a nasty virus (and no, it wasn't swine flu!), today was the day when I finally felt like wearing some nice clothes and wearing some make up. Hurray!

We went for a family lunch at The Garrison followed by an impronto visit to Castle Rushen, a national heritage site on the Isle of Man.

Make up wise I went for green around my eyes using MAC Juxt satin eyeshadow with Body Shop 44 in the crease to match the green in the skirt. I used MAC Phloof! frost eyeshadow in the inner corners and Bobbi Brown gel eyeliner in black ink to line and do the 'flicks' with a MAC 208 brush.

Base in Revlon Beyond Natural Skin Matching Makeup (recently repurchased) in 210 Light Pale. No7 Instant radiance Concealer was used to attempt to cover my bags.

I also used (suprise suprise) Prestige Skin Loving Minerals mineral bronzing powder in 03 Pure Shimmer to highlight and a little bit of MAC Well dressed satin powder blush.

The outfit is:

T Shirt - Topshop
Cardigan - M&S
Skirt - recent purchase from the Laura Ashley sale - down to £45 from £65
Shoes - Topshop

Hope you all had a lovely day!

    @Tali, the London Polyvore is coming up!

    @tina_mbc I curl it with GHDs. I always ask for two colours, sometimes three and they use a cap not foils so I never get bad roots. Hope that helps! x
