Pre-party ritual

Every girl knows that before a big party, or even a small outing, you will need at least 2 hours to get yourself ready! I am getting ready now for my birthday party (a murder mystery set in Hawaii, post about it coming soon) and of course 4 hours before it starts I am beginning to glam myself up. Here is my pre-party routine that I will be using today=
Wash face, toner, ex foliating mask, cooling mask, moisturise, cut nails, file nails, paint nails, accidently chip one nail then have to paint it again, curl hair, concealer, I don't wear foundation but if you did it would go hear, winged eye-liner, curl lashes, mascara, lipstick, lip gloss, put on Hawaiian dress and tweek hair etc if needed. 
Now that I have written it down I'm surprised that its not longer! What's your pre party routine? x

Graduate Fashion Week

Last week I went to the Graduate Fashion Week in London, There were stands for all the different arts and fashion universities in the UK. There was even free ice cream!!! I went round the stalls looking at all the different uni's taking all the brochures, leaflets, postcards and just generally free stuff that they gave me!! Later on in the day once the stands had been surveyed I went into the fashion show. It displayed all the work from different students who studied at the universities that were displayed there. I will admit some of the clothes did conjure a lot of questions in my mind for example, 'what were they thinking?' and 'who would wear that?' but the clothes that didn't make me ponder why everyone was clapping, did amaze me. The amount of detail and originality that went into some of the designs was astounding and you could really see every designers characters come through. If you have an interest in fashion or are looking for a university that really is the place to be. Go to http://www.gfw.org.uk/home.aspx if you want to find out more.

Cole or not to Cole? that is the question.

The recent split between Cheryl and Ashley wasn't much of a surprise, but with Cheryl trying to forget about the past, it is being made a lot harder by her managers etc. who say Tweedy isn't sexy enough and she may have to keep her married name of Cole, trust me tweedy or no tweedy Cheryl Cole is the definition of sexy!

Music

For some of us music is just a simple thing, that we occasionally listen to, maybe to set the mood for something. And for some its a haven. It can make you smile and it can make you cry. Some people find it helps them escape, if they have something going wrong for them they can get lost in sound, pounding through there ears. Anyway my point is, I think it's good for everyone to find their feel good song, The one they turn to when they're sad or upset or any emotion that is having a negative affect. A song that they can sit down listen to and forget about their worries.
