Wish List...

I havent posted for a while because im moving in three weeks, and ive been so busy packing and organising and working!! I also have zilch money, so i have done no shopping!!

But here are some things i want...and on my next payday i will buy! So look out for a little haul coming up...



Tangle Teezer! Ive heard sooo much about this product! I want one NOW! My hair is a nightmare, so knotty and it really hurts to brush or comb after a shower. I try to slap on as much conditioner as i can and comb it whilst still in the shower but sometimes even this doesnt help. I WILL be buying one of these and testing it out!



Topshop Make Up! It kills me that i cant go to topshop and buy their make up!


I have my eye on the cream blushes, as does everyone! The mascara and also some nail polishes! I think their packaging looks so cute and i cant wait to get my hands on some!



Superdrugs MUA range, just for the hell of it because its cheap!!



Beaute's Liqui-Gel stain in flouron...£25 for a small tube but pixiwoo's video where sam uses this is amazing and i want want want!!

I need to fill more of my MAC palette because i want to get onto number two! And although i love the colours i own already, it makes me sad that i cant open up a palette and see different colours every morning when i apply my make up! Any recommended colours for me to try next??


I will be losing the internet in around two weeks for my move but im hoping to get a dongle (any suggestions or reviews on dongles greatly appreeciated!!) so i can get back online when im in my new home in portsmouth!!



I am still reading blogs everyday and loving them! So keep up the good work girls!! :):)

A bag a day...

I am now producing around 1 bag a day, which for me is quite good! They only take an hour or so to make, and i really enjoy it!

Today i made a different style of bag, and i made it better...the lining isnt joined to the bag so there are no visible seams! It looks very professional if i say so myself!!

I have been looking online at woven labels, which i will buy on payday so i can have my own lilyribbons line :) How exciting!

I would love to be able to produce lots and lots of bags, sell them at craft fairs and online on etsy.com!

I also want to explore nicer zips or zip charms to make the zips a bit prettier!! I love the yellow zip i used for this bag, i feel brighter zips are definately the way forward!

Oh and today i bought two co-ordinating ribbons! John lewis seems to have a new ribbon range, which got me rather excited! So expect my next bags to have a bit of detailing to them!



Hope you're all having a lovely day! :)

All things pretty :)

Today i wanted to use some of my new fabric! So...I made a bag...suprise suprise!

I actually love using this fabric, its such good quality and it was so cheap! It was from a store called Fabric Land, in portmsouth cascades shopping centre, but they have a few around the uk.

Im so impressed! I love the colour combination i chose, and im pretty pleased with the outcome!

I also took some photos of two other bags i have previously made but not blogged about! The first is a small coin purse i made, but i actually keep it in the zip pocket of my handbag, for hair grips and kirbys etc.

The second is a large bag which i now store all my nail varnishes in! Its lined in cute heart fabric, and is oval at the top so its a bit different! Love both!

Also just a few new things i have got...

When on holiday i treated myself to the new Barry M ice creams collection, minus the yellow one because i dont like it! Ive worn all four and i love them! I now own 14 barry m polishes and im quite proud about this! :)

I also bought a spotty mug from laura ashley because i had a voucher, thought it was quite cute!

And i got this litte heart frame as a gift from my nan! How cute :) another addition to my hearts collection!

And lastly some cute shoes from primark! very summery i thought! they look good with my pale blue jeans and oversized tee!

Anyway...bit of a random post! Hope to get some FOTD's up soon and make up hauls when get paid on thurs :)

Im back!

I have been away! I would like to say ive been abroad but...i havent! Ive been visiting family and friends in my home city of portsmouth for two weeks! The sun was shining everyday and we went on lots of trips to Thorpe Park, Brighton, Bournemouth! and general holidayish things! I am moving down south in a few weeks so i was there to flathunt and find a general location where id like to live too, so its not all been leisure!

I have missed my little blog :) and sewing and buying lots of make up! so now im back and i have lots of making up to do!

I was so happy to find a really nice fabric shop in Portsmouth and it was sooo cheap so i will be posting on this! And ive been wearing new nail polishes and lipsticks which i will also be reporting on!

I have almost two weeks of blog reading to do so i will be kept busy in the next few days!

Now some cheesy holiday snaps ... :-)

Brighton beach :)

Me and Brighton beach!

Bournemouth beach!

Me and bf on Bournemouth pier

Me on bournemouth beach!

We ate out nearly everday so we have both put on weight and feel really sluggish...so its detox time!! I gave up on the 30 day shred because i was working nights and it was too difficult to continue without killing myself! So i will be back on that today too! Lucky me!

Hope you have all been enjoying the sunshine! :)

Questions Questions!

I would like to be able to do a giveaway soon...if my followers keep growing!

I will give away a set of handmade make up bags and some other bits.

Im just wandering...what do you like to see in a giveaway?

I think id like to do it around 70 followers, because 100 seems too far away lol.

Any comments on what to give away or what more to feature on my blog?

I enjoy sharing homemade projects but do you guys find them boring?

Please comment because i like to read them :)
