Here I have found some great accessories with that summery appeal.
The turquoise and midnight blue YSL rings are to die for, they are probably one of my favourite statement piece in jewellery form- but little out of my budget.

The glasses are just two funky and actually remind me a bit of 'The Rum Diaries', which I am obsessing over- it is a fantastic film that I would definitely recommend.

Then a spritz of Chanel perfume is always a nice little touch- like the cherry on top of a cake. MMMM, speaking of cakes have you ever tried red velvet cupcakes? I think their an American thing but they sure do look yummy!

Rimmed eyeliner is big this season. SOme say that it makes you eyes look smaller but in all it makes them look sexier. It gives a look more intensity and brings out the colour of you eyes and is so simple to achieve. Just use a dark pencil and/or liquid liner to line the top of you lid. Then use the same shade in a pencil liner to get along your water line, make sure to bring it in to the very inner corners of you eye to fully recreate that appealing look. Why don't you try the new L'Oreal Voluminous Smouldering Eyeliner or some thing similar?

Why not get creative? Wacky beautiful, elegant blahblahblah nail styles/paints are so in!. Just experiment. Take this nail varnish look by Revlon's UK Nail Ambassador Jenny Longworth, it looks stunning-well at least I've fallen for it! And it is so much easier to recreate that you might think! Just click HERE for the link for step by step instructions!

So the other day I visited the opticians because well I thought I might need glasses as I found it difficult to read some things from further away. It was I'd say the first time I'd been in about 10 years but it turns out I do need glasses! So I thought it would be a good idea to write a post on glasses!

I love cosmetics and theres nothing more to it. So recently after just finishing my exams with my summer pretty much free I decided it would be a good idea to try and get a job at one of my local cosmetic counters. Now if I could have it my way it would be a my local John Lewis at one of the most lovely counters. But I have just realised- it is darn hard to try and get a job there. You don't know how many times I have waltzed (not literally) around my shopping centre to various different beauty counters enquiring politely about how I'd go about getting a job there, and you know what, they pretty much all say that you need to apply through the company. So there you have me checking up on the company websites looking for non existent jobs, trailing from site to site, page to page. I thought it would be a bit easier than this but the whole system is so in direct! I mean a lovely Clinique lady told me to go to the store I wanted as she heard there were some opening , bring my CV along and you know just state myself to the head of dep. So the next day I'm like totally whizzing like a brain box on my computer doing my so-called speed typing to create me super duper uber amazing CV. Then I bring it along with me, ask for head of dep. and the woman goes off and comes back empty handed only to tell me the EXACT same thing. So I go to another counter 'Chanel' to ask ANOTHER woman how I could get a job there.
Me: Hi do you know how I would go about getting a job a this counter?
Her: Uhhhhhhhh
Me: ???????
*Awkward moment of silence*
Her: mumble mumble mumble 'go' mumble mumble 'though' mumble 'human resources'..
Me: OK thanks (quickly making my getaway while I still have a brain)

I mean come on she worked there for goodness sake, doesn't she know how she herself got the job? Really some people.

Sorry if I rambled on but it's so difficult! So if you have any tips or anything please please tell me, I would be incredibly grateful!!!

Wearing colour has never been so easy, this season every colour you can think of thats bright is probably on trend so this gives us a great opportunity to experiment!
What I love to do if I'm in a rush and I need a quick fix it to use my blush as an eyeshadow. I apply my make-up as usual, then once I've put on my blush I simply pinch my blush brush and (making sure there is some blush on the brush) I sweep it on the crease of my eye and voila! Bingo! Done! This is great because it really gives you that radiant, healthy glow and saves you buying more eye shadow.
Rule number 1: Never restrain yourself to only using your cosmetics for one thing, experiment like with the blush because they are always so versitile, ( this is with the exception of unnatural colours like blue eyeshadow- this might look a bit strange used as blush) 

Another tip is to think of you face as your canvas and you are the artist. For this Summer month you could try keeping you face neutral and work either the eyes or lips. 

Anyone can do it, the is no need to spend hour painstakingly perfecting your look, just apply a simple sweep of uplifting colour to your lid  or a slick of luscious lipstick to emphasise your pout!

You know, there something about this whole Jubilee thing that is so comforting. I love the monarchy and I think that it is fantastic how it brings people together and not just in our country but all over the world. So I know we all want to look beautiful, but why not look beautiful and show our countries colours. This is such a special year with the Jubilee celebrations and with London hosting the Olympics so we need to show our support in any way possible. BRITAIN is BEAUTIFUL!

These ROCKing nail wraps are sure to give you that British edge!
