collective 'hauling'

heyyyyyy worrrrrrrrrrrrld

*scroll to the bottom to read

about how you can win tickets to

the L.A. premiere of 'Eclipse'!!!

ANYWHO

'hauling' is still a slightly strange concept to me..

despite having watched/or read about plenty!

anyway, here are some things I got recently ☺

My mommmma got me these pretty coral earrings when she 

was away and she says they might be from a shop called 'orsay'

(which does really comfy, easy dresses too btw!)

but I've never seen one in the UK..they do have them in Europe

though methinks..definately Poland ☺

but I reckon there are plenty of shops on the UK high street that 

sell very similar ones..h&m, claire's, river island..I dunno! :P

This maxi moo is from..lo and behold..Primarni!

It was £9 and I haven't worn it out yet..

..and I'm, not sure when I will to be honest..

contemplating returning it...what do you think?

:s

A 'New Look' store opened near me recently

and as I was one of the first 25 (or something)

people to buy something, I got a £5 voucher

...sooo I only spent £1 on these flower slides

and (below) these floral clips:

I really like flowers in hair! 

hence these purchases!

I might give one set away as a present

when a friend's birthday comes up...

we shall see! -it was worth rushing to find

something to buy in order to get my

hands on that voucher! he he!

lastly, my amazon order of 'Skinny Bitch'

arrived! It's basically all about a vegan diet

and it sort of says that that's the only way

to lose weight but everyone knows that 

eating a bit of meat won't make you gain

10 stone in 10 minutes!

It's a bit intense, and I won't be going vegan

JUST yet...or giving up ice cream or

chocolate for that matter! ☻

An interesting read if you are into

nutrition, I suppose..(I've only read a few

pages though! so don't take my word for it!)

I hope you are all enjoying yourselves lovelies!

I only have two exams left, and they are in a

little under 2 weeks! so that means..a bit of

a break for me! hip hip hoorah!

ttyl!

* any TWILIGHT fans out there?

WELL, you can win tickets to the L.A.

premiere of Eclipse by taking a photo of yourself

in a red carpet outfit and posting it to claire's accessories:

http://www.eclipsemovie-claires.com/

I walked past claire's the other day and saw a poster for it!

It would be soooo fabulous to win! You can go into a

claire's store and get a little card which

you will need, to read a code to later type into

the contest form...I've been in two claire's stores

since and both codes have been 'ECLIPSE'

The comp closes this Friday!!!

[18.6.10!]

you have to be over 12 to enter

(ahhh, good ole claire's accessories)

Thought I'd let you ladies know,

in case you were fans..because I'd definately

want to know if I hadn't seen the poster!

Hugs,

Olenka

LC inspired look :)

I did some Lauren Conrad inspired 

(not copied so it's not perfect LC lol) 

hair, makeup and outfit :)

Here are the makeup products I used 

(forgot to include nivea tinted moisturiser darrrrrnit)

Lauren's makeup look is simple: bronzer and winged eyeliner

are the main features really

Her fashion usually consists of comfortable, feminine,

sometimes slouchy, neautral coloured clothing

Her signature hairstyle is waves with little side braids :)

Face:

 Nivea Tinted Moistuiser

17 Concealer

YSL touche eclat

ELF complexion perfection

ELF warm bronzer

Barry M Chocolate bronzer 

(Lauren is a bronzed beauty for sure :)

Benefit Thrrrob Blush

Benefit High Beam Highlighter

Eyes:

2000 Fast stroke liquid eyeliner (normal and waterproof 
because the waterproof one just didn't cut it)

A little bit of L'Oreal Contour Khol in Jet Black

Barry M White Eyeliner

YSL touche eclat again :)

Max Factor False Lash Effect Mascara

Various colours from sleek palette (see below)

-the colour pointed to by the white eyeliner I was the colour

I dabbed (using my finger:) onto my inner corner (along with the white liner)

-the colour pointed to by the fluffy eyeshadow brush is a matte

beige because apparently Lauren Conrad doesn't really wear much eyeshadow

-The darker brown on the bottom I used to fill in my brows

-And the black was used over the liquid eyeliner

Lips:

i.d. bare escentuals Buxom lips plumping gloss

I used just this but the colour didn't really show..basically

I was going for something neutral but Lauren does enjoy a red 

lip sometimes so feel free to dab on some red lipstick instead 

Here's the look! (The bronzer didn't really come out, did it? 

should I not use flash?)

For the hair, I still had it curled from when I told you guys about

the Jose Eber curling iron and then I just parted it down the middle 

(not such a brill look for my face shape I think, but ANYWAY )

and plaited two bits at the front, and pinned them back with some 

hair grips (bobby pins?)

-btw where can I get goog bobby pins/hair grips?..

primark will not provide for me in this area of merchandise!-

here's a close-up of my eye makeup (complete with bushy eyebrow)

with no flash! i'm learning here people...

ooh, spoke to soon, here's one with flash hehe

sorry but the inner corner shimmer&white 

didn't come out very well here.. :/

ok..so this is the outfit I put together in what I believe

is LC's style..(yes, I did edit the photo slightly using brightness

and contrast to show the outfit better :)

the plain black dress is H&M

the leggings are too H&M :)

the cream cardi is from http://www.purecollection.com/

The pearls and bag I was given from my mamaaa

and the shoes are from a shop called Bata in italy

(but there are plenty similar black dolly shoes to be found on the high street :)

sorry, forgot to rotate the shoes :S 

Here are some rings I picked out to go with the look:

The one above is from accessorize..i think it was £4..or maybe £6 

quite prices for a small ring but I really love wearing it :) ..does get

caught on stuff like tights and towels though...

Here, the one on the left is also accessorize and was a birthday pressie
the one on the right I bought for £1 at Spitalfields market :)


I really like little accessories :) especially more unique
 ones like thescarab looking ring from Spitalfields..it's so fun 
to look for pretty bargainsat markets - do you guys like 
markets or prefer the good ole' high street?


Anyway! That was my first whole look thingymabomg
Haven't really done anything like it before 
so I know it's not perfect
However, imperfect is far more interesting than perfect :)
You could wear this outfit to lunch with friends and then 
pop on a pair of heels, dab on some red lipstick..
maybe even smokeout the eye a bit..
and you're good to go for evening! :-)


Let me know what you think an if you have any questions!
Daily smile: if you're feeling down, dressing up
 and doing your hair and/or makeup can help make 
you feel special and give you a smile :D
