naked palette review


    


Hello,
So today I decided to review the Naked Palette 1, this is my all time favorite eye shadow palette, I love all the Naked palettes (1,2 and 3), however I own just this one, because these palettes are a little pricey, but I want the third one as well.

I only wear neutral eye shadows; I don't like wearing bright eye shadows, I don’t really know how to wear them to be honest. So, that is why I picked this up, because I thought I needed it, and let me just tell you I was right. It also comes with its own brush and eye primer. The primer is amazing and the brush is fairly nice as well. 

The reason I love this palette so much, is because you can wear these shades everyday and you can play around with all the different colors. It has got the perfect selection of neutral shades; I have neglected all my other eye shadow palettes, because of this one. So, If you are found of neutral colors, then this palette is for you. 

My favorite eye shadows out of all of these are Virgin, Naked, Sin and toasted. I love Naked, because I think you can wear it whenever and to where ever you like, I mostly wear this to school. I like Sin and toasted, because they are both very pretty shades of shimmery pink, I wear these the most. They look really flattering and girly. Virgin, is a very nice nude, its one of those essential eye shadows which you can do a lot with; so I really like it. 

All the other eye shadows are lovely as well, and I adore all of them. I feel like this is one of my favorite make up products, and the most useful makeup product that I own.  

Virgin: A light nude.
Sin: Champagne/light pinkish with a touch of shimmer
Naked: matte brown (medium)
Side Car: Shimmery taupe
Buck: matte brown (dark)
Half Baked: Shimmery bronze (light)
DarkHouse: Shimmery dark bronze
Toasted: Shimmery pink/rose gold 
Hustle: very dark purple/brown
Creep: charcoal black with a touch of shimmery silver
Gunmetal: Shimmery blue/grey.

Favorite Clothing Stores

Hello,
So today I wanted to share my favorite clothing stores with you all. I love fashion, and I love buying new clothes. So, these are the stores that I  mostly shop at and love the most: 


1) Wild fox:
I absolutely adore Wildfox. I simply love everything they sell. However, the only problem with Wildfox is; it is quite pricey. That does not stop it from being my favorite store though, because I just really love their clothes and I think they are worth the price, but if you think it is too overpriced, Forever 21 and Topshop are cheaper alternatives to Wildfox.

Topshop:
Topshop is such an amazing store to shop at, they have got gorgeous clothes and really pretty accessories as well. Its pretty affordable. The thing I love most about Topshop is the quality of all their clothes and other things. You can always find something you like at Topshop. I also love the fact that the deliver worldwide.

3) Modcloth:
Modcloth, is a online shop, they sell pretty much everything. I find it similar to Urban Outfitters. They sell the cutest dresses ever, and they've got quite a variety of dresses. I also quite like their sweaters and sweatshirts.

Forever 21:
Another store that I love is Forever 21, they have some really lovely stuff. There prices are fairly cheap, however this does not affect the quality of the clothes. From clothes to accessories, they have got it all. 
                     Forever 21

Asos:
Asos again is a online store, which I really like. They have really pretty stuff. I really like their dresses and their tights are adorable.

Back to School

Hello,

Okay, so I know I'm a little late, I meant to write this on Monday (6th), but I was kind of busy and my school opened today, however I didn't go, so tomorrow is my first day. Anyway, I really wanted to write this, since everyone is going back to school/college/work e.t.c, and I know it is not easy getting back in the work/study mood, and getting out of bed in the freezing cold weather doesn't make it any easier! So, I made a list of things that you should do to hate school a little less.

1) Stay Positive:

Staying positive is the first thing on my list. Don't cry about going to school, think positive thoughts, tell yourself that today will be a good day, and then it will be. Always have a smile on your face, no matter what. Listen to some upbeat and happy music, to get in a good mood, and don't over think things. One of my biggest problems is, I over think everything, that's the worst thing you can do to yourself. Don't over-think, just have faith in yourself and think positively about things. Like the picture say "Stop thinking, and just let things happen". Also, don't let people bring you down, trust me it is not worth it. Don't let them think they are better than you, and don't let them get to you. Think of all the people in your life who actually love and care about you. 

2) Study hard but not too hard: 
Studying is very important, when you study you have to concentrate and focus, don't let distractions get in the way of studying, but also give yourself breaks. Know that all this hard work will pay of. However, you shouldn't kill yourself to get an A grade, remember your health is more important, just do the best you can. 

3) Be organized:
Make a time table for yourself, and follow it. Don't make it unrealistic; make a time-table that you are sure you can follow. Then organize your books and notebooks subject and class wise. Make sure you sleep early so you are fresh in the morning, and so you don't sleep in school. The most important thing is to do your homework before it is due, and never leave anything for the morning, you will probably just go back to sleep.

4) Give yourself breaks:
Always remember to give your mind a break. Read a nice book or watch a happy film. Relax a little, its important to get away from all the stress, even if it’s just for an hour.

If you have a bad day, get over it, don't keep thinking about it.:3 x

Favorite Winter Coat ♥


Hello,
I got this lovely coat from Topshop: http://www.topshop.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=12556&catalogId=33057&productId=12075677&categoryId=1093323&parent_category_rn=208526 . This is my favorite coat this winter, I think its  so adorable and its also really comfortable, and warm.

I had been wanting a light pink coat, since pink is my favorite color and I needed to add a little bit of pink to my winter wardrobe. So I started looking online for some cute pink coats, the first store that I thought of was Topshop. Topshop is definitely my favorite store and I always find something I like there. So I took a look at all their coats, and I had to look no further, because I found this one, and I thought it was perfect! 


The minute it arrived, I put it on. It was really warm and cozy. The coat is a powdery pink color and It is a bit over-sized. I mostly wear it with my white sweaters and black leggings, It adds color and girliness to a dull outfit, which I think is great. It is both formal and casual wear, which makes this coat even more perfect.

So, if you are looking for a warm pink coat, which is not too expensive this is definitely for you.

2014: New Year Resolutions



Hello,
Happy New Year to all of you, I hope you have a great one

Yesterday, I sat down and thought of my new year resolutions. They were almost the same as last year, however the only difference between last year and this year is, I will actually follow these resolutions.

My Resolutions are:
1: Get into shape
2: Be a nicer person
3: Study harder/get better grades
5: Stay positive
6:  Be more organized
7: Work on my improving my blog
8: Interact with more bloggers
9: Write more
10: Read more books.

I personally believe that New Year Resolutions are very important; it’s a great opportunity for everyone, to start fresh and become a better person. Also, I feel more sorted, after writing down my resolutions. I think it is very important to believe in yourself and know that you will be able to achieve your goals/resolutions. You can also make a step by step guideline, if you are determined to achieve them, and there is this technique called 'Positive imaging', you can use it by picturing yourself achieving these goals by the end of the year.
