Mac Surf Baby!


So here's another up and coming collection from my favorite Mac! :)
I will say I'm quite liking the packaging, but over all the products look good which is always the main thing about buying anything. I'm not massively excited about anything to be honest like I was with the Wonder women collection, although I do like the blush and a lipstick at the moment but I may end up getting nothing...we shall see! I'm sure I will let you all know.
Due out May 26th US (yay my Birthday! lol) & June Internationally :)
Here's some of the products coming out...


Anyway, what are your thoughts my lovelies?

Forever 21 mini haul :)

On Friday I went to Birmingham Bullring, I've been in many forever 21's in America but this is the first time I've been in this Forever 21 and I will say it's very good and one of the best. Being on 3 levels but both floors being massive it's defo worth a trip, prices are reasonable, I personally like to have a good nose at the jewelry!
I picked up some earrings and a coat, which was in the sale

Both £2.40

This was £9.99 onsale, think the original price was £34.80

Legally Blonde :)



So ladies I had this week off and have been out and about a lot, but my fav day of all was Thursday when me and bf got tickets to see the matinee showing of Legally Blonde :)
I've been lucky enough to see quite a lot of show's....I really love a good show it's the best! :). I will say having always enjoyed the film, this was no disappointment at all. If you've seen the film I'm sure you know what it's all about. Sadly Paulette wasn't played by Denise Van Outen, it was played by another women but I will say she played it perfectly! and Susan McFadden was Elle Woods, she was amazing and sang beautifully. Be honest the cast were all amazing!!! Oh and even though dogs were fab! :).

If you get a chance to go see it I would defo recommend it, lots of fun and giggles indeedy lol ;). Let me know what shows you have seen?

I hope your all well???

New Sleek Palette :)

Hello everyone!!! I hope your all having a good week so far. I'm off work this week so am out and about hehe, and I'm off to London Thurs...I cannot wait! :), anyway onto what I picked up at the weekend. The new limited edition Sleek palette avoir la peche, from Superdrug £6.49....I haven't used all the colors yet but so far so good, if it's the kind of colors you would go for the I'm sure you will love this, I always find the sleek eyeshadows to be very pigmented, which is always a big bonus and not to pricey :)

So ladies, as I'm sure your all well aware of the Mac Wonder women collection being out now although I know it came out in Selfridges last week but I wanted to buy mine from Mac, well until I noticed that Debenhams online are now selling Mac products which I'm so happy about :). Not sure if you know but Debenhams has a sale on at the moment until Saturday 5th March with 10% off all beauty & fragrances.
So I hopped online this morning to see if they were selling the Mac WW collection as it was due out online today, and yes they certainly were :) (happy faced me).
