Birthday Weekend





Morning Gorgeous!

Today I will be going through my outfit and makeup deets from the weekend, I had a fab night in House, Letterkenny on Friday with my lovely friends and it was fab. We drank cocktails, ate Pizza and played cards - such a laugh!




So first of all - I got my hair chopped! I love the blunt cut and I'm enjoying having straight hair again, I rarely straighten it so it's nice for a change! I also got a temporary toner in it which it a purple grey colour and its fab for a wee change! It only lasts a few washes so it's great to experiment with colours without the commitment!

The Outfit
I was looking for something other than a dress/skirt for a change and came across these Culottes on Boohoo and immediately fell in love. I adore the colour and the pleats were so different. I paired them with a simple lace up bodysuit from H&M and my Public Desire heels. 
One of my heels broke while I was out and I had to come home and change them - needless to say I was devastated! No shame for them though since I've literally been wearing them every night out since I got them over a year ago! I will be taking them to get fixed because I am not ready to let them go yet! :P

For jewellery I went pretty simple - I got a choker from Penneys and just took the pendant off it and simple black studded bracelets I got years ago probably from Penneys!



Culottes - Boohoo - Saskia Pleated Wide Leg Cropped Trousers
Body Suit - H&M
Heels - Public Desire - Unable to find the suede ones but here are the PU version and they are reduced! Alaia Black PU Cut Out Lace Up Heel
Choker - Penneys


The MakeUp
I was SO excited to do my makeup on Friday night as it was the first time using most of my new Inglot bits and boy I was not disappointed. 

The Inglot shadows are so pigmented and the liner is literally on for life! I cannot rave about it enough, I had so much fun playing with it!

I also bought the Cailyn HD Foundation on Friday as a last minute purchase and I am very glad I did, it is the perfect night time makeup, the coverage was amazing, the finish is perfect. I got a darker shade so I can wear it with tan and it matched perfectly.
