Parklife 2014!

Hello lovies!

Parklife was over a week ago, and I'm majorly depressed - I have a severe case of festival blues!

It was amazing, so many people and the atmosphere was unbelievable! The weather wasn't as good as it could have been, but everyone stuck on their wellies and plowed on regardless of the weather!

 I didn't risk bringing my iPhone with me to the gig, just knowing my luck it definitely would have ended up face down in a puddle and I had a little cheap Nokia instead.. It had a camera, but unfortunately I don't have any Bluetooth devices that will actually connect to it! So I have no pics of being inside the gig except my friends which I've nicked!

The highlights of the weekend for me were: Snoop Dogg ('mazing!), Sam Smith (wowzaaaaa), Cyril Hahn, Bastille (I seen them at Big Weekend last year and preferred them there but they were still good), and Disclosure, who were definitely my overall winners! I seen them last year at Warehouse Project, but being in a field of approx 60,000 people in the sunshine listening to them was amazing and completely trumphed being inside a sweaty, drug filled warehouse!!

Just wanted to do a post to show my makeup off and what I wore and do a little round-up to confirm to myself it's all over!

Saturday

 Just a quick summary of what's on my face:

- Estee Lauder Double Wear in 'Pure Beige'
- Eyes from my 120 Eyeshadow Palette from eBay
- Eylure Naturalite '145' Eyelashes
- Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Pomade 'Dark Brown'
- Topshop Lip Varnish in 'High Times'
- Bindi and Facial Gems from eBay
- My sunglasses (you can see them later on) are also from eBay :)




- My dress was from H&M, kind of similar to the *cough* marijuana *cough* dress that is basically errywhere at the minute, but obviously if it has banana leaves *wink wink, nudge nudge* on the store is legally allowed to sell it! It was £7.99! It's not on H&M's website but I've seen it in lots of stores, I purchased from the Manchester Market Street store :)
- My necklace is a super old gold chain from ASOS!
- The wellies were kindly lent to me by my lovely housemate Hayley to protect my tootsies!
- My handbag (not seen) was from ASOS and you can see it here!

L-R - Lizzie, myself and Becca!

 Anyway, that's enough pictures, I'm depressed now!
It was an amazing weekend with amazing friends and I'm so glad I got to experience it before I start my placement!

And just on a final note about Parklife, RIP to Robert Hart, the festival goer that was attacked unprovoked and as a result of the attack died. All my thoughts to his friends and family, no-one deserves to die at a festival, everyone should be there to have fun and relax.. No-one should have to die for being a fan of music!

Thanks for reading!

Busy weekendzz!

Hellllllooo guys!

I have had the most JAM-PACKED weekend of my life in a long time! It's now Sunday and I'm in come down mode and feel so zonked out! (Apologies if zonked isn't even a real word!)

On Friday my best friend and I went to Tennents Vital, a 3 day festival that takes place in Belfast at Boucher Road playing fields! The line up was Tommy Trash, Naughty Boy, Rudimental, Tinie Tempah and the headliner was Avicii!

It was a great night and all the acts were AMAZING! But Tinie Tempah was definitely my highlight, the man is beautiful! 

I didn't get a full photo of my outfit, but I wore a baseball top from h&m, high waisted shorts from Primark, suspender tights by Henry Holland (which laddered before I left the house TYPICAL!) and black and purple nike hightops.. Which are now brown from the mud.. Lovely ;-)

Here's a few snaps from Friday!  

On Saturday my mum and I were at a wedding of one of her colleagues! The wedding took place in St Macarten's Cathedral in Monaghan, and it was a beautiful setting for the wedding! The sun was shining and the bride looked GORGEOUS! 

I did my makeup myself, and I'm wearing MAC's Magenta Liner on my lips and Eylure's 400 lashes! I love over the top lashes! I have tiny eyelids so it's the only thing that adds definition to myself! I got my hair done by my hairdresser, she used GHD's and lots of hairspray to get the waves into my hair! And if anyone's noticed, I'm going blonde! I got loads of blonde in on Friday morning, and will be continuing to go this direction.. blondes DO have more fun! ;-)

My mums dress was from Debut in Debenhams and I think she looks gorgeous! She's my best friend and I love to see her looking gorgeous.. She even wore false eyelashes for the first time! Proud!!

My dress is from the Billie and Blossom range in Dorothy Perkins! I love the bright orange colour! The belt is from Dorothy Perkins, the shoes from Topshop, handbag from New Look and my necklace is from a discount jewellery store in Belfast called Muse! 

It was a lovely day and it was so good to be part of the wedding! The bride and groom looked so happy and in love!! Weddings always make me emotional, I cried at the bride walking up the aisle! 

I've had a busy weekend and have never been so glad to spend a whole day in bed today! It's my friends 21st birthday on Monday so more partying is to come!! 

Hope you enjoyed this more personal post!! 

Talk soon darlings!
