Style Inspo 2: Rihanna

So I've made a post about my style inspo before ...if you haven't read before-Here.
Rihanna is one lady that knows how to dress, even though some of her outfits are outrageous they still suit her.

I have put together a few pics of her fine moments on camera, one true beauty she is.




The Daily Face

I thought since I like makeup, you like makeup ..why not show what I wear on a day-to-day basis!
Even though for the amount of products used, I think it still gives a natural look that is totally suitable for school,work,lazy days etc..

Base-
Okay so first after I moisturize, I use Benefit's the POREfessional as a primer.I personally love this because it's one primer that does what it's supposed to do... Keep the makeup on your face!!
Next I use LOreal Infallible 24H Foundation, I mean this is okay but doesn't give major cover up.
I then move in with Collection's Lasting Perfection Concealer, I only purchased this recently but so far it is doing a great job at hiding blemishes and dark circles.
Lastly I set my base makeup with Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder.

Eyes/brows 
I first go ahead and prime my lids with Benefits Stay Don't Stray, I FREAKING LOVE THIS.. Not meaning to be over-dramatic but I feel like it lasts for hours on end and doesn't let my eyeshadow move. I then move on to using Bootycall from the Naked 2 Pallette, (not in the picture) it helps me look awake when I'm really half-dead looking at 8:30 a.m heading to school.
The mascara I use is Rimmel London VolumeFlash Scandal Eyes!
And finally my last step in beautifying myself is filling in my brows withEssence eyebrow stylist set 01 natural brunette style, I feel and really know that I should buy new brow powder because this is nearly finished and I will cry if I can't fill in my brows.


So that's it very simple and basic but it makes me presentable! What does your 'everyday makeup' consist of?

Overnight Trip Serenity.

Last Thursday,my classmates and I embarked on an overnight trip to Glendalough in Wicklow as a part of our Transition Year programme.We stayed at a Hostel down there.
We hiked 17Km() on the Thursday and 8Km() on Friday, let me tell you that it was one the best experiences of my life.
We left the school early enough so we would have the whole day to hike and have the evening to relax and have fun!
The heights we reached were incredible, although very scary if you look down.
I managed to capture some of the areas we were, in the pictures below.
No wonder why many tourists go to Glendalough,it is truly marvellous and beautiful.

Fall Trends 2014.

As we approach the harsh cold months,which I hate by the way, we are all excited for many things..
Halloween is at the end of this month, Christmas is just around the corner and new Fall clothing is now entering shops! Now I'm not one for embracing the freezing temperature drops or the dark mornings but I have to admit I am most excited for the sweaters and the boots etc.

Here is a little list I have put together of all Fall trends that are must for your wardrobe:

1-Big baggy sweaters!!!!!!
They match really well with basically any bottoms such as jeans, shorts, leggings.
Here's is one fabulous sweater I found on Zara.


2-Jeans! 
I don't know about you guys but I'm a big fan of jeans.I find that not only are they stylish but they are also warm.There is so many styles to chose from so the choice is endless! 
Here are some gorgeous mom jeans from River Island.

3-Chelsea Boots!
My all time favourite boots is the good ol' Chelsea's.
You can not go wrong with a pair of these from Asos.

Stay tuned for more posts from me,
