Weekend Shenanigans

25th March 2014

Hi Everyone!
I thought I’d share a weekend round up with you today.  To start any weekend (or any day actually) on the right note, I need a cup of tea in my hands.  This is a ritual that cannot be broken.  The day cannot start without tea.  A friend bought me a manicure voucher for my birthday and I finally got round to using it bright and early Saturday morning.  Don’t you just love a soft pink mani?  Along with my cup of tea I did my make up and got ready for a bloggers’ meet-up. 
On Saturday I was lucky enough to attend Mercedes-Benz fashion week with Irina.  The shows were so inspiring and there were a couple things I would have loved to add to my closet.  We were also able to go backstage and see how things were going behind the scenes.  MAC was responsible for the models’ make up and it was as though I’d entered a dream world because there were MAC products everywhere and the best of MAC’s make up artists everywhere.  I was pretty convinced I’d found my happy place.

This picture was taken at the Bobbi Brown Pretty Powerful initiative last week.  I loved having my make up done for a special cause.  Any purchase of Bobbi Brown Pretty Powerful mascara goes towards funding young girls’ educations which is a charity drive that I think is so important and I’m so grateful I could be a part of.
So I think it’s safe to say I’m make up crazed but gosh I love it.  What’s your favourite brand?

    I’m the same, I can’t start the day without tea, if I ever run out and I’m forced to, the day never ends well! I love your midi rings in the first photo 🙂 x Hayley-Eszti
