Just a bargain i thought i'd mention!

A BARGAIN!

I saw these a couple of months ago in Asda (George) and they reminded me a little of wedges I had seen at http://www.bankfashion.co.uk/home ... I don't know why because they look nothing like them! Maybe they are nothing like the £40 ones I had seen in BANK, but I still liked them, I just didn't think they were worth £16, especially because its Asda after all, and I'm on a budget due to being skint/jobless!

So a few weeks later I went back and BOOM! There they were, on sale for only £7!

Looks like I was right, they obviously weren't worth £16 or people just found them ugly.

They are so comfortable, and probably wearable with anything!  

I was and am a very happy customer.

The end!

Fruit Picking

A good day out to Cheshire!

Went fruit picking yesterday. I've always actually liked the idea of it, picking your own fruit and sneaking a few in while you picking them. I just thought of wanting to pick out strawberries really, cause strawberries are the best. Unfortunately there wasn't any strawberries there :(

Other berries, but no strawberries!!

So, we got there...it was about an hour and a half drive from where I live, perhaps a little longer as I had a headache due to it..

HATE travelling!

Anyway, we got there, met with the owner and he handed us some bags. My mum decided that we would pick apples and plums... The apples looked absolutely beautiful! They put the supermarket ones to shame I tell ya! (And they tasted really good too)

However the plums weren't even ripe enough, hence the fact that myself and my brothers thought they were grapes! *LOL* they were tiny!! But we found a few that looked like peaches and were shaped like rugby balls, so picked them out and of course we tried some :P  

We then went for the berries, and to my disappointment, as I had already mentioned...there wasn't any strawberries!

But the Cranberries, Raspberries and Blackberries made up for it.

The cranberries were the best, I mean even my 3 year old sister loved the sweet/sour taste, she shouted "Mummy, come taste it! Its delicious" the cutie!

The owner mentioned he made and sold apple juice (and cider) so we brought two bottles of the finest, and I'm telling you..I hate apple juice, it makes me gag just by looking at it. But this juice was nothing like the carton and plastic bottled juices available at supermarkets, it was actually really nice! everything had cost around £25 ... which I thought was a reasonable price :D 

*History* The owner inherited the farm,the whole 70 acres of it!! Then sold about 50.

Also, the farm is known to be the home of Cheshire Apple Juice and Cider!

Mac Creme Cup DUPES

Mac Creme cup (Looking for Dupes)  

A very light shade of pink, which gives a more nude/natural kind of colour to all skin tones. I would say its a perfect soft light pink colour, for me personally, also on pictures the colour looks great!

Mac Creme cup has a cremesheen finish, which means that it has a very smooth/soft texture to it and doesn't leave your lips dry! *bonus*
Its very similar to Macs Angel, but slightly better! So I would definitely recommend it as its a very popular shade!

However! As we all know mac isn't exactly the cheapest of stores in makeup heaven, so I decided to look for some dupes at drug store that look the same shade as the Macs' Creme cup lipstick...they may be a little darker/lighter and the formulations slightly differ as well but they are without a doubt at a much cheaper and affordable price!

So I would recommend to those who are on a budget for makeup etc, as am I!  To perhaps have a look at these items which will help you all avoid breaking your bank accounts :D


1) *Maybelline - Born with it* (image from Google)
- this dupe is almost identical in shade, but is more shimmery than macs' creme cup so it has more of a glossy look rather than a creamy one. (Priced around £7.20)

2) *Revlon - Wink for Pink* (image from Google)
- this Dupe is more pink in colour than Macs' creme cup, and it is a tiny bit more shimmery, however I would say that its overall the closest to the creme cup shade! (Priced around £7.50)

3) *Rimmel - Airy Fairy* (image from Google)
-this dupe is quite a close shade to Macs' Creme cup, maybe a little darker, but more or less the same shade, its quite creamy and a little matte... And is long lasting! So all in all its good!
Oh and also it smells amazing! (Priced around £5)
--

So they were the three I picked out to be the closest to the Creme cup, ALL available online... hope this helped those who look for dupes. If anyone wants me to do a dupe search for other lipsticks, let me know on instagram

ZM - Zuhair Murad

Another one of my obsessions are of Zuhair Murad.

A Lebanese fashion designer who first appeared with his collection on the catwalks in Rome 1999

 this easily led to his participation in many events after!

Zuhair opened one of his head shops in Beirut, and his lines include haute Couture,

ready-to-wear, accessories and eyewear.

Known celebrities such as Taylor Swift, Carrie Underwood, Beyoncé Knowles, Jennifer Lopez, Katy Perry and many more have been seen wearing his dresses!!
