Review: Topshop Eyeshadow....

If you follow me on Twitter then you may have seen me asking around for a metallic deep red eyeshadow. I got some great recommendations and in the end went with the Topshop eyeshadow in Explorer, a stunning deep red almost purple metallic shade, this shade is beautiful and a shade I have not seen elsewhere.

This shade is a gorgeous matte shade with a metallic sheen, it applies well and lasts a good length of time, especially when applied with a little water as it goes super metallic and creates more of a dramatic look. This shadow would look perfect with gold and particularly suit brown and blue eyes. The colour looks exactly like it does within the packaging when applied on the lid, as I find some shadows can be quite different but luckily you get what you see with this product. The pigmentation is just as you would want from an eyeshadow, a deep intense colour that doesn't need a lot of application to get the pigment to show.

I am going to be using this shade in a Youtube video so you can see the look on my channel, link to my channel is on my homepage.

Have you ever tried this eyeshadow or any other makeup from Topshop?

OOTD: Office Style

I have been struggling for work wear especially now with baby bump so wanted something that would work for not only work but general wear and of course something suitable for work as trousers seem to bug me at the moment!

A Date Day | Food Festival | OOTD

Food is something I literally adore!! especially foods from various cultures, I adore trying new dishes out so when me and the hubby found out about Bournemouth we took the hour trip to go and have a great date day.


A fruity superfood smoothie!

Churros with a chocolate dip!

We also had paella and a pulled pork burrito but we ate them before we thought of photos! I wanted to try so much more like goats curry, a salted beef sandwich but it was so cold and unfortunately we couldnt stay much longer so went to the sea front which was suprisingly warmer, which sounds crazy as you would expect it to be colder but it wasnt so we strolled along there and played in the amusements on the classic 2 p machines.

 My outfit- Ripped Jeans and Crochet Top from Topshop. Hat and Boots from New Look, and coat from Ebay.



We had such a lovely day, strolling and exploring. We ended up in town centre as you do, and bought our little one a build the bear! I have never been in there and it was so much fun!
