Bold Liner

Hey everyone,

this will probably be my last post for the next weeks, as I will be going on a USA-Canada (NY - Toronto - Daytona Beach - Miami) trip next sunday! I'm not planning on shopping too much make up, but I'm sure I'll still come across quite a few things that I'll bring back from there! You know my heart's not been in doing make up for the past few weeks, therefore I'm actually glad about some away time from the blog and I hope to be back with my head full of new inspiration :)! Oh, and I also need to work on clearing up my technique - I've become sloppy recently. Yeah. Probably it's the lack of concepts in my head that causes my recent looks to be somewhat lacklustre... So today I basically opted for some bold lining adorned with some green:

So many new followers and awesome blog awards - welcome and thank you all so much ♥!!

Yeah, I am still stuck in the same colour family... But I just felt like white and blue, and I added some teal glitter just because I love everything teal. I really, really couldn't think of a good title for this one though!

Bejeweled

I've been wanting to do a look featuring lots and lots of rhinestones for some time - and here it is! MAC Platinum on lid, Fyrinnae Daemonic in crease, with red, orange and black from the 88 Mattes palette:

Hot Pink Flowers

I need to get a finer liner brush. I really do. Painting things is so much harder if you don't have an adequate brush for it.. Anyway this was inspired by a pattern on a box of flase lashes I bought in London. The lid colours are basically hot pink, black and dark purple, and the flowers are several shades of pink with pink flowers and rhinestones:

Pictures from London

Hey everyone,

I got back from my London trip on wednesday night and now I finally get to posting a few pics for you :)

We went straight for afternoon tea at the Orangery in Kensington - lovely place but reasonably priced, and they have great passion fruit tarts (:





A really fat squirrel we met in Kensington Gardens (though this perspective actually makes it look slim :P). It actually ended up jumping on my friend's bag!


Another favourite place for tea: the Caffè Concerto (yummy fruit tarts!)



I know it seems like i have done nothing but ... I just love taking pics of sweets and pastries (: Ok, maybe I had a few cakes too much as well... But anyway, the main purpose (for me) was to go and see Andrew Lloyd Webber's sequel to Phantom of the Opera: Love Never Dies at the Adelphi Theatre. But first, a pic of Trafalgar square shortly after sunset:


The Adelphi Theatre. For those interested, you can read my review of the show here: http://phantomessoftheopera.blogspot.com


I am also a fan of the Sherlock Holmes stories, so I went to the Sherlock Holmes museum in Baker Street:






Harrod's is one of my fave places in London - such pretty things and amazingly decorated as well! There's also Lola's which makes a large selection of beautiful cupcakes:



I love this (:



Harrod's Food Hall



My cupcakes arrived slightly battered but still alive!



I also took the opportunity to go for a good pointe shoe fitting in Drury Lane in the Westend and ended up with a pair of Grishko 2007's. They are actually quite comfy (considering they're pointes)...



Whenever I go to London, I bring back loads of food as well. Yesterday, my brother and sister came to our place and we had a lovely afternoon tea with all the cakes I brought (:


Sooo, and now for today's make up! I did a look based off this picture, but I went a little overboard with the side stripes, sorry!
