What Do We Think Of Hats?

Every time I see someone in a nice hat I always wish I could pull one off, Im fine with a beanie and I can even somehow manage to think I look ok in a straw hat in the summer but when it comes to big, floppy statement hats I think that as soon as I put it on everyone will laugh.

When I see them in the shops I try it on, look in the mirror and take it off as quickly as I can,hoping that know one saw me.

But I was in Primark picking up my usual basics and I saw one of the hats I'd been wanting to pull off so I grabbed it and put it in my already very full basket. 

I had every intention of playing around with it at home, trying to make it work with a few different outfits and hairstyles realising that I would look silly and take it back.

When I got home from shopping and was showing my boyfriend the things Id brought I tried on the hat and to my surprise he didn't burst out laughing (and he would, we are very honest with each other, if one of us doesn't like something we say it) He thought it looked ok and so did my mum so the next day we went out to a pub and I wore the hat!!!

Now when we were buying drinks I was sure the lady behind the bar was looking at me in a strange way but I think that I was paranoid about trying something new, kind of like when you wear a bright lipstick for the first time you make yourself believe everyone else you see thinks you look like a drag queen.

I put a photo from the day on Instagram and was surprised at how many people complimented me on the hat.



So now I feel like me and that hat are starting to get along. What do you think?

Lovey Lush Goodies


Karma Bubble Bar was a new product for me, I don't usually get drawn to fruity smells but I thought i'd try something different. It has the scent of Orange and Patchouli it is also full of sweet orange oil, lemon grass oil, pine oil and elemi oil. You feel the oils on your skin after the bath so there is no need for a moisturizer. 


I only used half the bar at a time so the water didn't turn that orange but I imagine if you use the entire thing it would be a really vibrant colour. Using half did produce a lot of bubbles and they lasted the entire bath unlike a few products that seem to vanish as your relaxing.


The product itself was lovely I just cant seem to make my self enjoy the fruity scent, it reminds me of a bathroom cleaning product. 

Have you tried Karma Bubble Bar?

HD Brows

I have been getting my brows done with the HD method for well over a year now. 

I think of it as more of a treatment then just getting my eyebrows groomed as it takes between 45 minutes to an hour.  It involves a few different hair removal techniques, including tinting, waxing, threading, trimming and tweezing. 

I have never had my brows look as good as they do now. 

Here are before and after pictures from the last time they were done the first picture is after 6 weeks re-growth (Ignore the eyelash glue..It was still drying) I do have product on them but you can still see the untidy shape.


Here is an after picture, as you can see they are very red this is because of my very sensitive skin and anything I do hair removal wise causes a bit of soreness and a rash but after a few hours it disappears. When they are first done I get about 2 weeks without needing to use any product, so that's a great time saver.




How do you maintain your brows?
