Trip to the doctors!

Heya guys and gals of the blogosphere! 
yesterday i had a trip to the doctors because spring/summer is here which means i start suffering from serve hayfever so a doctors trip was necessary to keep it all under control. I love spring but it's always a drag having to take eye drops, nose spray and tablets to keep my hayfever at bay, but thats the way my body is so i'll have to live around it! 
Whilst i was at the doctors i also got acne cream because i usually get it bad on my chest, so to keep that away i have to continuously use it. 


Do you have a common illness/condition?

Forever twenty one;Mustache necklace.

Heya guys and gals of the blogosphere, so a few days ago i went to the Trafford center in Manchester with a girls group (long story for more information click: HERE)
I attended this in an attempt to meet new people as I've just moved into the area and it was supposed to help lead me into becoming a volunteer at the youth club, which it did and i'm now starting a voluntary course in September which will help me have some experience for future jobs once I've passed and become a volunteer.  So anyway back to the story in the Trafford center we each got to get each other a gift like a secret Santa but in april, i got a girl called Lisa who bought me the most adorable necklace from forever twenty one, it has a thin gold chain and a dainty mustache charm, i personally love it and glad she picked it for me :)

Spring Wishlist!

Heyya guys and gals of the blogosphere, spring is here I can finally say this because here in  the northwest of  England we had our first glimpse of sunshine over the weekend;so a spring post is defiantly needed!
So without a due.. i present to you my spring wishlist.


Cat Print dress//eBay
Dainty Doll Powder blusher 'You are my sunshine' // Fragrance direct
BarryM gelly nail vanish 'Papaya' // Superdrug
Topshop Floral Loafers // Topshop
Topshop Lipstick 'whimsical' // Topshop
Ditsy print skirt // eBay
Simple skater dress 'green' // eBay

Cat print dress from eBay, i adore this because i think it's a simple dress spruced up to make it look alot more original and is totally to my taste; Another thing i love about this dress is that it's super cheap!
Barry M Gelly nail vanish in 'Papaya' This colour i love love love, i think it's a perfect peach for the spring weather.
Top shop Floral loafers are what i think sumerise spring up for me, i hate toes so i like flat non-open toed shoes, which is why these are perfect!
Top shop lipstick in 'whimsical' is the prettiest coral colored lipstick that i personally think i need in my lipstick collection.
Dainty Doll powder blush in 'you are my sunshine' again is the perfect corally pink colour to add to my makeup collection.
Ditsy print skirt is the perfect addition to anyone's wardrobe for spring and summer, this skirt is the cutest thing going and is again super super cheap!
Simple skater dress in 'green' is a springtime essential, it's a simple cotton dress that's easy to dress up or down.

Whats your spring time essential :)

Stir it up Saturday; foundations,concealers&powders.

 Hiya guys and gals of the blogosphere, today's post is the first of a series of four drugstore products me and Beth from The prettiest pastel love so much or just think they need to be mentioned so starting with foundation; being super pale with ginger hair makes it difficult to find foundations that match my skin colour. Knowing this for Christmas i got Nicola Roberts dainty doll liquid foundation although at the time i wouldn't have considered this as a drugstore foundation because it cost  £22 but now i do since it hasn't been selling to well you can  find it on eBay or fragrance direct for a fraction of the price, i love this foundation because it matches my skin amazingly my only problem with it is that it has a sheer coverage and sometimes isn't to build able  which moves me onto my second foundation that is the MUA matte perfect foundation  i bought this with good expectations because i had saw it on AThirtyMrs but when i tried it it seemed to need alot of blending in to look good on my skin a\but it wasn't a bad match, so i decided to mix a pump or two of my dainty doll into it to lighten the shade but also give me some coverage, this really worked and i love them both on their own. 
My third foundation is the Maybelline dream satin liquid foundation again i love this foundation but i think it needs alot of blending to match my skin colour, but i like the way it feels on my skin and has a medium coverage.My last foundation isn't a foundation it's a BB cream but i thought it would fall into this category, this doesn't give alot of coverage but surprisingly gives more than the dainty doll foundation because this has a more peachy tone, i love to use this for lazy days! Now onto concealers; i recently bought this gosh concealer for 49p and i love it, it's super handy and works on my blemishes before i use my foundation sort of like a primer but better, my only problem is it drys out my skin so i only use this on oily days, another green concealer that i love is 17 correction stick, i like this product because it's creamy and easier to blend than the gosh one, it still does dry out my skin but this is something i can use everyday even with dry skin because it's creamy. Next is L'Oreal lumi Magique i use this under my eyes when i'm needing a pick me up because this brightens like a highlighter but helps hide my sleepy eyes. i like to use this under my eyes only because it's sheer and doesn't look cakey, unlike my next all time favorite concealer collection 2000 lasting perfection, i don't even need to go into detail about this because I've talked about it before.That is it for my post on drugstore makeup, i didn't include powders because i never really use a powder and the ones i have i don't rate.

Stir it up Saturday Introduction!

 Hello, this is just a quick post/ update on whats been going on with my blog, i learnt how to make my own blog header and blog button and then i fell in love with a blog  The prettiest pastel this blog is run by a girl called Beth who is super lovely, i can't remember how i came across her blog but i did, i left a comment on her post and she emailed me later that day, we started talking because she wanted some help for her blog layout and header, after i made her blog header and helped her go over a few things and chatted  we decided since we both love each others blog we should collaborate, which we are now in the process of doing :)
it will be a post on drugstore makeup because we're both still in high school so we don't have alot of high end makeup, it will be posted each Saturday for about 4/5 weeks, and on both blogs.
if you want anymore information, if you would like help on your blog I.e blog header or you would like to collaborate email me at Thegirlinpatternedtights@gmail.com.
