Fabb Liverpool

Hello my lovely's,
I am finally doing a write up about my first bloggers event fabbliverpool (which now feels like a life time ago). I took my sisters camera with me and got some great pictures but since I gave it back to her she has broke the memory card I saved the pictures on so this is going to be a very heavy word post with a major lack of pictures! If I can get them off the memory card I will add them in the future! I have reshot some things using my phone so sorry for the poor quality! 

This is going to be broken down into 3 posts or you'll be here all day reading. Once the they are up I will link them here :)
First post is getting ready
Second at FabbLiverpool
Third goodie bag and review

So on Saturday 15th March I went to my first bloggers event 'FABBLiverpool'. I must say, now I have been to one I need to go to another ASAP! The girls Tor  Ray from thatspeachy and whoisshe did an amazing job at organising the event. I had such an amazing time! A lot of that is to do with the company I had! I met 3 amazing lady's! Laura, Anna and Leanne, they made me feel at ease and were so fun to be around. I have such a fear of going new places and I am terrified of going places on my own! So this was such a big deal for me to go somewhere new on my own!

My day started quite early 8am (considering I have insomnia and only went to bed at 6:15, 8am is early to me! It's like going bed at 11 and getting up at 1am for a full day!)
I had washed my hair the night before so all I had to do was wash, apply my make up and get dressed!

I used my usual no7 beautiful skin face wash and toner then used Soap and Glory face mask (to help dry out my oily skin to keep my make up in place all day), and eye cream followed by no7 beautiful skin day cream.

No7 beautifully balanced skin care soap and glory

I left my moisturiser to sink in for 10 mins while I blow dried my fringe and put in a few rollers.
Soon as my rollers were in I put my Illamasqua hydra veil primer on. This stuff is incredible it makes your skin feel so smooth and foundation just slides over it perfectly! But it's best to leave it 10 mins before applying foundation.
The rest of the products I used are:-
Face
Mac studio fix fluid NW20
Mac Prep + Prime light boost
Mac Pro set powder invisible
Mac shaping powder emphasize
Nars bronzer Laguna
Mac blush stay pretty
Eyes
Mac paint pot in painterly
Urban Decay Naked 2
Booty Call on lid
Tease above cease
Pistol in crease and outer v
Foxy as brow highlight
Illamasqua eye liner cake Mislead used with sealing gel
Rimmel lash accelerator mascara
Mac lashes in 33
Brows
Smashbox brow wax
Sigma brow powders in light (were part of my welcome pack!)
Lips
Mac lipstick snob
Mac lipstick Milan mode
Tanya Burr Aurora lipgloss
Finished off with fix plus

Make up Fabb Liverpool


Wow when you put it like that that is a lot of make up!

Once my make up was sorted I took my rollers out gave it a lil backcomb and used got to be powderful. Once my hair was how I wanted I used got to be glued which literally freezes your hair how you want it :)

I wore this pretty little number from new look with tights, paired with a short denim jacket to make it more casual and go with my high tops! I used my river island pink and beige handbag. And topped it all off with gold dangly earrings (look out for a little fiasco story about my earings in the next segment) and gold bracelet.

I love the detail on the collar

How cute are my high tops

And my bag matches quite well

I used Marc Jacobs purfum Daisy

Once I was ready I checked my bag for all my essentials and I was ready to go!
But my hubby wasn't!

I waited around for him worrying about the time, I had planned to meet Laura at 12 and it was cutting it close already. He was finally ready so we hopped in the car and started on our journey. Not long after we got on the A55 the fuel light came on so we had to stop, delaying me even further! By the time we had got towards the boarder of Wales and England the traffic started to slow down. I really did feel like everything was against me. We got off the A55 asap and it was clear roads....... for a full 5 mins then again queue's! I text Laura to let her know what was going on and that I was going to be quite late as I sent it as if by magic the sun started shining and the roads cleared. It was smooth sailing all the way to the tunnels even then it wasn't to bad. We managed to park pretty quickly. 
Now all I had to do was find the little caffee we were meeting at.

If your still here thanks for sticking with it, next post about FabbLiverpool will be up ASAP and hopefully I have loads of pictures to show you :)
until next time have a nice day xXx

O Woe Is Me

Hello my lovely's, I am going to have lots more time for my blog as I am currently off work for 3 weeks as I have my foot in a aircast! 

            Here is the evidence

Don't worry I haven't hurt my self I have got a problem with my feet that has been going on for 10 years this year! It's called plantar fasciitis, basically I have lots of micro tears in the plantar fascia (the ligaments in arch of your foot) and every time I walk it's making it worse so I am having 6 weeks of wearing the 'aircast air select elite' boot to try and help rest it so it might heal. I need it to be as well rested as it can be as we are going to Florida in July so I want to be able to walk around as much as possible! usually after 2/3 days I can bearely put my feet on the floor and have to be pushed round in a wheel chair! Which I hate! I feel like everyone is looking at me thinking why is that girl in a chair she must be lazy. 
I feel like a fraud being in the boot and on crutches too, after only 4 days I have hardly any pain in my right foot which usually hurts 24/7! Which feels amazing! My left foot on the other hand is killing! It's usually my good foot that only aches after I have been standing or walking around for 2hours. 

I am only 25 and I am falling apart!
O woe is me :( 

On a nicer note I am loving the sunshine we have had over the last 3 weeks! And the chocolate eggs from Easter! 

Right now I have very easy living arrangements as I (and hubby) have moved into my parents house as we have sold our house and we want to save some more money for a bigger deposit for our next house. So far I am loving being back at home, everyday my mum makes me clean the kitchen and bathroom as I am home alone while everyone is in work/uni but I don't mind. It's saving us a fortune!
I have taken well to getting into a routine of :-
getting up get washed and clean bathroom 
get dressed have breakfast clean kitchen 
put a wash on and go let Steve out (if you read my posts regularly you will know he is my bunny). Sit with him or change his bedding 
get the washing out to dry 
then the rest of the day is free to go for lunch, sunbathing and getting my eBay work done. Have to say its a working out well for me lol

Well this has been a long quite random post but I am back and enjoying putting down my nonsense thoughts on my blog,

Don't forget to leave a comment and follow me on bloglovin! Link is in the side bar

Until next time have a nice day xXx
