Kate Moss Rimmel Lipstick: Shade 20.

I came across a gorgeous lipstick colour from Rimmel when I was out shopping the other day and just had to buy it.
It is from the Kate Moss collection for Rimmel, and the shade number is 20.
The colour is very durable and stays on for hours- I occasionally top it up due to getting paranoid that it has faded (I presume most women do this too?). The colour of the lipstick is really pigmented, and stands out so much; the only way a could describe the colour is by saying the word Barbie! Pink lipsticks are not usually a favourite of mine, and especially not bright pink; but I can't help but think this colour is just gorgeous and will suit most people!
It looks amazing as a statement lip with very little eye-makeup; I usually have a thin line of liquid liner and some mascara on when I use this lipstick.
Its great value for money, and I have completely fallen in love with this lipstick.
Its a gorgeous colour to get in for spring/summer.
On the photo of myself I have toned down the lipstick for a less obvious pink tone; I lightly put the lipstick on with my finger to give my lips a pink tone to them. It's great to do this for a day/work look.

Birthday Bargain Shoes!

Last week it was my birthday, and I was on the hunt for a nice pair of shoes that were not overly pricey as I knew there would be a chance on a nightout that they could get damaged(thankfully they didnt get damaged at all).
A place I usually shop for my heels that are not expensive is New Look. I'd say 80% of my heels are from here!
I came across a beautiful pair of wedges and instantly knew they were what I wanted... and even better they were in the sale!! On the shoe itself, the price tag originally was £30, The sale price over the top of this was now £12... Bargain! I then went to pay for the shoes, and was even happier when I found out the shoes were lowered even more and only cost me £5. BARGAIN!! They are gorgeous shoes and 100% comfy. I had no pain in my feet all night! and I wore them for 7 hours straight and danced for hours in them.

The first look of them, I thought they were extremely big and that they would of been very uncomfy; But the style of them is great... which takes me to my main point... If you are planning a night out or going somewhere you will be stood up for ages, get a wedge that does not angle your feet down massively like heels usually do. I am still amazed at how comfy these shoes were; especially when usually my heels have been taken off within 2 hours and i'm walking around bare foot because I start to get that burning pain in the balls of my feet.

To anyone out there wanting new shoes but doesn't have £60 to go spending on a pair for one night; BARGAIN SHOP! You'll be amazed at some of the stuff you can pick up for so cheap and how nice it is!
