Hi lovelies,
I have another one brand focus post/ video for you. This time I am focusing on the brand E.l.f. I have gathered a few products from them and can tell you what has worked for me and what hasn’t. On the whole, I like E.l.f because most of the products have worked for me, it is affordable and they are cruelty free which is another bonus!
In this blog post, I briefly give you a run down (in my video, I share more details– shameless plug, I know, right?)
Brushes
Hi lovelies,
I did a bit of shopping from H& M, so I thought I’d show you what I got along with my Get Ready with me video.
But first, what did I get?
Jewelry
I got this lovely chunky pearl earring. I think they look really nice paired with a nice spring knit or blouse. They can transform your outfit into something really glam.
Layered (-ing) necklaces
So, shell fish-y hangy stuff are all over the place. I got this necklace that is da embodiment of summer. It will look great with a V neck. You can wear it on it’s own or with other pieces.
I also got a necklace with a small circle hanging on it. I think that looks really chic.
Clothes
A wide leg pair of smart trousers. I have bought more classic looking trousers from H&M before and they are great value for money. Have washed my winter pair many times and they are still a great fit. This pair is more lightweight. The only thing I do not love about them is that they are quite high waisted.
Snake Print shirt
I ❤ animal print. Most of the things I have are leopard print. That is why I bought my first snake print shirt. Ideal for going out. What do you think?
Light (knit) blouses
At 8.99 I got three. A white, a pink and a black blouse. I made the mistake of buying the pink one in XLarge and it is quite big. I bought the others in Large. They are nice and soft, a bit baggy, the sleeves do not drown you and I 😍 them. Great basics for Spring 🌹🌷🌹
I also got this pretty hair tie which is very on trend at the moment. I really like this and it does make my hair look a bit more put together.
Now time for the Tube…
YouTube
My YouTube video is me showing you my work outfit. I wear the pink blouse, another H&M wide leg trouser, the necklace and makeup… On my face. And since I am talking about makeup, my look is a very easy everyday makeup look.

Thanks for stopping by. Don’t forget to follow my bog.
Till next time….
Hi lovelies!!
It has been a while since I sat and wrote a blog post.
To be honest, I am not actually sitting, I am tucked in bed, drinking coffee and thinking about clothes. Yeap.
That is why I am writing my blog post today. Let’s talk about fashion. Buying clothes.
My size
I am a UK 16, but that fluctuates, depending on the store and the clothing item. For trousers, I usually buy 16-18 (H&M or M&S), for tops I can wear 14-16. I usually buy clothes that are large or extra large.
YouTube
I have filmed a few videos about clothes and styling and I will share them here coz of course I am going to shame. Essly plug my channel.
So my glam Get Ready with me featuring zara leopard print and pearls
A Prinark haul try on
A Work Outfit Get ready with me (H&M/Zara)
Tomorrow I will be filming a spring get ready with me, so stay tuned.
I hope you check out my videos xx

Hi Lovelies,
Being a 16+ can make it a bit hard to shop. Today, I am sharing with you a glam get ready with me for the curvy gal like me. I filmed a video where I show you the complete look. Clothes and makeup. Some bits and bobs are shared in this post, but loads of info is in the video.
You can get the trousers here. (affiliate link)
I love these trousers. They are wide leg and very easy to style. They have proper pockets. The material is like a soft pair of jeans with some sort of cloth in it. It does not crease. I loved it so much, I bought another colour (wine).
Screen shot from the John Lewis website
Blouse / shirt similar to mine can be found here.
I love leopard print blouses!!!

To complete the look I put on pearl earrings from Primark and a necklace from Marks and Spencer.You can get the earrings here.
Screen shot from the M&S website
Makeup revolution foundation: Love it. It is not drying if you put on moisturiser and primer. It gives a flawless base look.
Rimmel Wild Card blusher: My winter blusher. It needs blending. Do not go in heavy handed.
Rodial mascara: Too expensive. There are others that do the same job.
This is my Get Ready with me Video. I kinda like the final look 😍 (toot toot).
What do you think? If you are a curvy gal like me, what are your fave shops for buying clothes? Let me know in the comment below.

Till next time lovelies…..

Hi everyone!!
Time for October Faves. I posted a YouTube video where I talk a lot about what I like about these products, but I also thought I’d share a blog post, cause well, I haven’t written one in forever.
So, what did I love in October?
So lovelies,
Hi lovelies,
I am sooooo busy this week. Trying to juggle work, life and making videos. I just posted a video about my skincare faves and because it is almost bedtime and you want something to watch before you
zzzzzzzz
Here you go. Check out my skincare faves if you are in your 40s, have sensitive skin, have a bit of rosacea or just love watching skincare type videos. I talk about face and body. I mention well known products and other not so well know products.
OK and I am 5 subscribers away from 200 (sooooo pls watch and subscribe :))
Till next time…..

Yesterday was colour blind awaress day and I tried to do that. Raise awareness. The main focus was on students who are colour blind, but I did post a video about my whole makeup application process and what I, as an achromat, find difficult.
Foundation/concealer
I cannot pick a shade for my skin. Whatever I use is based on what a makeup artist or sales assistant has chosen for me. I am OK with that. They are helpful. I can see if the foundation/ concealer is full or medium coverage, but I cannot see if it goes orange, if it is a cool or warm undertone.
Eye shadows
I cannot see the colours. I mean, I can see them, but not really “see” them the way you do. That is why I have ranted over and over about cosmetics companies and how they name their products. I need a clear colour name. Dark brown, light shimmery pink. What I do not need is a name like showery rainbow or unicorn breathe. That says nothing to me. It does not help me buy an eye shadow and in all fairness, it drives me away from purchasing a product with a random name. Now, as far as pigmentation is concerned, the lighter the shade, the harder it is for me to see it on my eyelid.
Lippies
Same as above. I have no idea what I am buying
But
I can see if it looks nice on me, or at least I think I can.
If you want to hear more about this, do watch my video, where I also talk about cb students and teachers.
Thanks for stopping by.
Xx
