'Shop my closet' challenge

Having recently moved house and buying loads of furniture, I find myself significantly poorer than this time last year! 

(Finally owning my own dressing table makes it worthwhile though!)

I have decided it is time to 'shop my closet' and start enjoying the items I have rediscovered during the move. 

Let's see how long I can survive.....

With the sun shinning and the promise that it is supposed to be a 'good' summer, I have been rather a busy bunny....

Nars Narsissist Palette


So the ACCA exam results have been released and as a massive pat on the back to myself for passing I treated myself to this little beauty. 

Although it is a little on the pricey side for a palette, there is a good selection of colours and I'm hoping it should be a little more compact than my Urban Decay Naked Palette.

GHD Air hairdryer

 
After a very satisfying trip to the hairdresser this month and probably the best blow dry of my life I decided to invest in this little number on the recommendation of my stylist (I new it must be good as she never recommends anything!)

I admit that the cost was a little prohibitive to start with, even with the money off offer but I over came my doubts and purchased it anyway as a birthday treat to myself. 

I have yet to be disappointed by the dryer. Not only is it really pretty (as far as a hair dryer can be!) but more importantly it drys my hair really quickly and leaves it soft, smooth and shiny. 

If you have this kind of money to invest in a hair appliance then I would definitely recommend this one. 

January 2014 in pictures


January is the month of my birth and to help me cope with getting yet another year older I decided to celebrate in style. 

The highlight of my celebrations was a trip to London. 

These are a few of my favourite memories of the month:
Best birthday cake ever!

Exploring at the British Museum




Checking out the Globe Theatre

Sherlock's return to TV

Speedy's cafe is real!

After failing to get tickets despite queuing for a crazy amount of time, I finally gave up an went to the cinema with everyone else!
