Prom 2014

Hi Hi,

So I recently had my prom and I ended up not having time to make the get ready with me video on youtube. The day was just too busy and I still have 3 exams to study for. 


The thing I was most excited about was this palette from urban decay! It was $54 from Sephora and I usually don't splurge on make up but I wanted something I could use for every occasion and I wanted something that would last me a long time (especially through uni).


It came with samples of each of the primer potions and OMG it makes such a difference to use the potions first before applying the eyeshadow. It's smart on their part but I'm annoyed that I didn't get a full size with this palette like the other ones but oh well. I will buy it once the samples run out!

I really recommend getting this palette for people who want more wearable eyeshadow. I think there's enough variety to create both glamorous and everyday looks! The brush is great and I love the packaging. I would say the downside is the price and the lack of primer potion but I feel like it was worth it. I'm still looking at getting the electric palette which would be more for cosplay then everyday looks!

Swatches of my favourite colours 


Hanna has been doing my hair since we moved to Abu Dhabi and she always does an amazing job! Unfortunately we were running late so I didn't have time for her to really style the curls! I ended up having to do it myself but I think it came out okay though. 

My friends and I went to Emirates Palace first to take picture! 

 We were actually a bit unlucky because the driver of the hummer got the wrong information and was driving us to a completely different place rather than Shangri La. We only noticed when he stopped at a gas station to go to the toilet. We were really confused as to why he would stop when we were already running late. When I asked him what he was doing he was like "I'm just driving around for 2 hours on Yas Island" I was so mad because even after I told him we were supposed to go to Shang he was still arguing with me! 

But once we got there it was all good! The food was nice and they had an awesome photo-booth (though it was only there 1 hour which sucked) We got to take photos of all our class members and teachers which was fun and there was dancing too. 


That was my experience with senior prom!

Prom (graduation ball) Purchases!! ^u^

Hi Hi,

I wanted to share the items that I bought for my leaver's Ball which is basically the last party the 6th form get before we go off to our doom...aka exams XD 

Anyway, I started off by looking high and low for a dress. I went with my best friends the first time but we were really just messing around, seeing as we didn't have money to really buy anything at the time.
I was trying to find a red dress but i wasn't trying to be too picky because i just wanted to try on a bunch of different dresses....

I loved this dress but it was $500 and I was like helll nooooo! 
In the end I went for the cheapest dress but very pretty XD

So the dress I ended up buying was from Lipsy and it was about $110 which I was really happy about! 
I fell in love with the colour <3
Details *0*

Then I bought my shoes yesterday which were an absolute steal!
Besty Johnsons on super sale! I paid $40 with about %60 price reduction 



Super happy with this purchase though I was a bit suspicious about getting them for such a low price. I did some checking up online just to make sure they weren't fake! Actually they are 1/2 a size to big for me but I loved them so much I still got them, and they were the last pair in the Steve Madden store! 


I also bought this necklace from I am, I just wanted to add some more bling to the look because my dress is a bit on the plain side XD

I will be posting my get ready with me prom look on youtube once I do it! I will also do a room tour video and a what's in my bag video before I leave to move back to Australia! 

Thanks for reading!
