ombre

Theres no hiding the fact that ombre hair is going to be huge! Everyone seems to be doing it! It doesn't look tacky nor cheap it just looks simply gorgeous.

I'm quite sad that Ive had the chop and that it would look completely ridiculous on my hair! But if you've got gorgeous locks then rock this look!!

the chop. UPDATE.

Firstly i will start of by saying. The chop, what chop?

Ok I haven't yet had my hair cut.. the lady which comes to my house was unable to cut mine and my mums hair as her car was broken into and wanted to understandably sort out her insurance etc. Anyway she's coming next week something & yes I'm still thinking about a bob!

But.. I did purchase this baby today!
I'm so excited to try this! I have wanted to go a purple red colour for ages! & I'm just going to go for it! I'm not sure whether or not to dye it before or after the chop?!.. What do you think?

Until Next Time..

the chop.

Just to update my gorgeous followers I'm going for the chop Thursday morning!  Verrry VERY scared! I've never really been that wild with my hair my hairs always been brown or blonde! I've dabbled in extensions, highlights, flashes of colour in the hair and that's about it!

I usually ask for nothing of the length because I've always dreamed of hair down to my bum but my hair just does not grow! Anyhow i usually just get lots of layers and trim of my side fringe!

This time I'm going for the bob! But which style i still don't know! I'm a bit scared because I really don't want short shorrrt hair at the back!


A few of the hair cuts I'm umming and arring over are....


What do you think? I've posted something along the lines of this before but never went through with a bob!

Shall i go for it? Which photo do you like best?

HELP!!!

Until Next Time

SHOPPINGHAUL.. Picture Heavy!

I love shopping who doesn't? This haul is over the last week or so, I was in need of some good retail therapy!

First stop.. Lush!
The gorgeous bag always puts a smile on my face!

UP YOU GETS

Look how gorgeous it looks! It smells sooo good! I really want to use it now but just know I'm going to need it when I have no motivation!

I also picked up a copy of the Lush times.. Flicking through it this caught my eye! I need this! This will look gorgeous when you have a tan on those gorgeous pins ").
 Next stop boots!
My hair cries out for this!

The smell is so gorgeous anything with coconut I love! I've brought a similar hair mask from superdrugs own brand and the pot is finished! So I thought I'd try this one out!

If you haven't picked up these nail varnishes yet then I suggest you go down to boots and take advantage of the offer! Buy two bottles of diet coke for £1.80 & then you can pick a free nails inc nail polish out of four colours! I picked up plum, and caramel! 

Malteaser bunnies. Yummy enough said?
 Then Matalan, I just love routing through their jewellery when its on sale!
I picked up these rose studs just because I love rose studs! They where around £1.20

These are going to be gorgeous in the summer!


And for £1.80 you cant go wrong!

Whilst in matalan I picked up this chiffon blouse! In the sale reduced from £14 to £2!


I love love love it!
Then onto dorothy perkins!
I picked up two of their dresses from the range 'lila'

So hard to photograph I hope you get the idea! I wanted this in black, I know I'm so boooring! This was just £10 reduced from £28!

This dress was even worse to photograph its a one shoulder dress and doesn't hang up with one of those things! (You know what i mean?) Anyway its similar to the red one but its a one shoulder dress!

This is the embellishment on the shoulder of the black dress!
Then onto H&M just to pick up a few basics!
Just a basic black tank top! £3.99

Then I also picked up a black body con skirt also £3.99. This would just not photograph!
Finally the last stop, Office!

These are gorgeeeous! I love love love heels! Ok I know they are sky high! And they are probably the most highest shoes i own! The heels are 6inches with a 2insh platform! I think I'm in love!

They where the last pair and they where £80 down to £20! This made me love them even more! Expect to see a broken leg soon!

Sorry the post is super duper long! I love reading hauls so I thought I'd share my recent buys with you!

Let me know what you thought of what I brought and if you have had any recent buys!?

Nice & Easy

I'm all for home hair dying! I usually use brands such as Garnier, Loreal etc. But this time when I went to pick up my hair dye I opted for something different!

Shade 5 Medium Brown

Easy read instructions

Contents inside!
Im so excited to use this as it claims to be easy! I must admit I have been known to have patchy hair before because the bottle dyes are quite hard to master because you cant see the back!

Watch out for a review and before and after pictures! Maybe even some pictures whilst I'm using this dye if I can rope in the boyfriend to be camera man! ")

Love & Kisses

P.S - Let me know if you've used this! And if it really is easy?

hair care collection

I thought I'd share with you my hair care collection & how i store my collection!
My collection isn't that big of a collection as i either pass on products i done use to my mum or try to use them up so i can buy some more!

First up my hair products -


Left to right - Garnier Fructis Style, Bamboo Flexihold Hairspray Volume & Hold;
Matrix, Sleek.Look Smoothing System, 3 Extreme;
Herbal Essences Beautiful Ends Protection Cream;
Batiste Dry Shampoo (BOHO);
Toni&Guy Protein Protection Mist.


Left to right - TRESemmé Smooth Memory, Frizz Control;
Umberto Giannini Glam Hair, Tousled Salt Spray;
Umberto Giannini Glam Hair, Backcomb In A Bottle.

Brush and hair accessories collection -




My hair straightener -

Vibe, feel the vibes. (Ceramic Tourmaline Vibrating Straightener)


Vibration on the heating plates aids the straightening motion and allows the hair to glide effortlessly thought the plates without any tugging or pulling and thereby causes less damage.

Ceramic and tourmaline coated plates. Tourmaline is a natural mineral that is a more efficient source of lonic and far infrared energy, which will reduce stress on the hair as well as static and will also neutralize the positive lons found on damaged hair, allowing the hair to lay flatter and smoother





My hair is only thin and it does the job nicely! I prefer this straightener to the GHD as mine broke last year -.-!

So that's my hair care collection minus the shampoo etc..! I hope you enjoyed reading, if you would like me to do a review on a product just leave a comment! A review on Herbal Essences Protection Cream is coming up soon which was requested by the gorgeous Jojo !

I would like to thank all my gorgeous followers! Means alot to me ")

Love & Kisses
