Double Scoop Sundae

So yesterday me and my friends ventured off to the Ben & Jerry's Sundae festival in Heaton Park Manchester and had a fabulous time :)...all you can eat free ice cream and music, what more could you ask for?!

They had something for everyone, rides, a petting zoo, cookie decorating, stalls and lot's and lot's of free ice cream! They had every favour available...Cookie Dough has to be my absolute fave, nomnomnom :)

The headline act were Maximo Park, who I use to be a massive fan of. I forgot how good they are until I saw them last night! We managed to get right to the front and survived the mini mosh pit that erupted around us, eek :s Although, unfortunately, my shoes didn't survive the mass of mud and people jumping up and down on my feet.

Gary Numan was also there who I have to say was really rather good and obviously played the classic 'Cars'. But I can't think of Gary Numan without thinking of this, haha...


It was a really good day, the weather was lovely. It was just a nice chilled and relaxing day. I would love to go back next year, it was worth the £19.50 for the ticket :)

Boudoir Prive...

So after everybody's dissapointment over the GlossyBox this month I've seen talk of another company that offer a similar deal, Boudoir Prive. It's the same price as GlossyBox, £10 a month, and is sent out monthly. Check them out Boudoir Prive :)

She's so sweet with her get back stare

So I've been in search of a good, high street, gel eye liner for a while now. I've heard all the amazing things about Bobby Brown and MAC'S gel eye liner's, but unfortunately I don't have Bobby Brown and MAC make-up money at the minute *boo* :(


So when I spotted this Maybelline one in Boots for £7.99 I thought I would give it a go.

The packaging is simple yet stylish, the same for all Maybelline products. The brush you get with the eye liner actually appears to be really good...the bristles feel nice and soft yet make the eye liner easy to apply.

003

The gel eye liner itself is actually really soft and creamy and is so easy to put up :)

004

This is just after one coat! I am very impressed and defiantly recommend it :)

Leave the sewing to the women. You go get some trimmin'

I'm a little bit in love with the matching necklace and bracelets I've made (not to be big headed or anything, ha)
