30 Day Snap #20

Whoops where did 3 days of my life go..yesterday I didn't take a photo and the day before I was just restoring my phone.

One of my best friends is going to Ibiza for the 6th year holiday tomorrow,the whole year went a few days ago but her and my other friend are going out a little late as they booked it later.

I was laughing here re-enacting Titanic but I actually really like this photo.I just look free and it looks so vast,open,beautiful and peaceful.(Enough adjectives Alice?)(there was a rock jutting out from the sand and it sunk further into the water so it looks like I'm not standing on anything ;))

I hadn't seen her for like two weeks,so tonight she drove to mine and we just chose random left's and right's and ended up a little beach at a small town in the countryside.
One thing I love about where I live is within about 10 minutes of driving,you are in the countryside or at a beach or lake and it's just so refreshing to go on drives at night rather than stay in watching tv.I had such a lovely time with her and for the first time in my life I managed to skim a stone(3 times!!) okay it was basically a slate but still.

Basically just a beautiful evening and I felt refreshed and calm.I took loads of photo's but even though Louise includes two sometimes I feel like I have to keep it to one,weird I know.
Wasn't so great when I was on cloud 9 and then came home to an e-mail saying I didn't get a job,they didn't even take me to interview stage.Ah well.

Graduation: Class of 2013!

So after 6 years,I graduated high school last night.I wasn't really sad because school wasn't the best of times,but I made loads of friends and stayed close to my group of friends from 1st year to 6th year(I live in Scotland so the education system is a bit different). I'll miss some people I guess,that I won't get to see again. The future terrifies me as I'm still umming and ahhing about what to do,and I'm torn between wanting to stay at school for the security and leaving,but I don't have a choice! But I try not to dwell on it too much.

This was my make-up before I went out(not great quality,taken on my iPhone)(my hair was not complying and I was in a huge rush,to get a professional photo taken before the graduation,so my makeup isn't great either,ah!)
(makeup photos taken into the light,so I look a bit like a ghost)

I wore : 

• Colour Adapt Maxfactor Foundation in 45 Warm Almond(I had the maxfactor all day flawless but I went to repurchase and it was sold out so I bought this,it's in the same shade yet much darker and the texture  is greasy,would not recommend but I haven't had time to buy my old one again yet)
• - Rimmel Stay Matte Powder in Warm Beige
• - Rimmel Volume Flash Mascara
• - No7 Perfectly Bronzed Bronzing Pearls
• - Vue eyeshadow from the Lancôme Color Design Eyeshadow Palette
• - Guest List & Waif eyeshadows from the Lancôme Color Design Eyeshadow Palette(used for eyebrows)
• - Vie Out Of The Shadows  Light Diffusing Concealer
• - Estée Lauder Red Lipstick (My friend put it in her handbag last night and I forgot to get it back,so I can't remember the shade)
• - I also applied Soap and Glory Smoulder Kohl Eyeliner just before I left but isn't pictured above,for me this eyeliner comes off so quickly,but I couldn't find my Lancôme eyeliner so it had to suffice.
• My Dress is from New Look a couple of weeks ago(£26)
• I curled my hair but even with copious amounts of hairspray my hair always returns to it's natural wave after an hour or so,annoyingly!)

I couldn't ask for a better group of friends,I'll insert some photo's I took on my Dad's camera(near the end of the night..I don't look great)   (We all piled in for one of my friends slots as she didn't want to go alone,and my Dad snuck in beside the professional photographer)

The Head Girl and I,who is my friend I love to bits(iphone photo)

 This is one of my best friends Emma,I love her dress(Again,back to posh camera so my dress looks a different colour.It was more pinky than this photo shows but more orange than the iphone photo's show!

(This is just to show my whole outfit,another one with one of my besties)

                                   It's the end of an era,I wonder where I'll be in 6 years time! 

                                                        (I really do ramble,apologies)

30 Day Snap #3

Today my friend had a leaving barbecue at the local 'beach'. I put it in speech marks because its all pebbles haha. I stupidly forgot to get a photo with her,she's off to America for 3 months to do Camp America!

Here's a photo I took of me and another friend,who's leaving me in August for South Africa for an entire year.She's one of my best friends and I can't imagine life without her,it's going to be tough,I'm like a part of her family.

Not the most flattering photo as I didn't quite know when she was taking it,and I hate my smile..but anyway! Louise would want me to be positive :) (I'm left)

18th Party At A Castle!

hey there!

Two night's ago I attended an 18th birthday celebration in beautiful castle grounds where I live.It was held inside a heated marquee in the grounds,but there was seating outside and for some reason I spent a lot of my time outside having meaningful chats!

The castle and grounds was absolutely beautiful,but silly me with 4500 photos on my iPhone forgot to delete photo's before I went,so I took loads and 90% of them saved as grey boxes and I only took like 10 anyway...I always get angry at myself after for not taking more but in the moment you're so happy you forget,but many people had their snazzy camera's so I'll insert their photos here.(hope they don't mind..unless I magically become famous they won't know but they're my friends so)

I'm in the orange dress,it was £30 in New Look, I normally find New Look clothing quite ill fitting,but this dress suits me perfectly I think,I love the colour and just everything.

I look terrified here because just a few minutes before I was taking a photo of the guy in the photo with me and a girl beside a statue and my heels got stuck in the grass,so here I'm like ah no please don't make me stand on the grass!

We were greeted with champagne!

My friend and his bitches haha

my awkward smile

Mojito's

It was such a lovely night,and really sunny and warm for once,which is such a rarity in Scotland where I live!

Au revoir

P.S - I spent ages on my make-up because my skin isn't very good at the moment so I actually spent a long time until my face was flawless,and I was actually really happy with the outcome and many people complimented my make-up which I was flattered by. If you want close-up shots and a sort of tutorial let me know (not that anyone reads my blog)

18th Birthday Celebrations!

One of my best friend's was 18 today,and she had a birthday brunch at her house with Bucks Fizz,Croissants,Waffles, the lot! It was so delicious and now I feel fit to burst.  All of us chipped in and bought her a Kindle Fire HD, and she was so shocked and overwhelmed by it.She's going for a gap year to Africa with Project Trust so we thought it'd be handy to get online and chat to us,and also to read when she's bored.

Here's her beautiful cake from the local bakery

and this is how I looked before I went into town with my friends and bought the kindle yesterday (I didn't take a photo of my face or outfit today)

Au revoir for now
