A weekend or so just gone I had the pleasure of being invited by the lovely team at Lynette Page to have a little makeover done at their Make Up Bar and flagship store in Knutsford, Cheshire. I absolutely jumped at the chance as for me there is nothing I love more than having my make up done and also learning a few tips and tricks along the way! Firstly the salon itself is utterly delightful with huge windows and plenty of natural light which made the place bright even though it was raining! (Typical North West weather!) Lynette herself and one of the artists Holly were both busy when I first walked in but they both were absolutely lovely and welcoming something I sometimes find rare in salons or when I've had my make up done professionally in the past in department stores etc. 

Lynette who's is the owner of the make up bar and Academy created my look on the day. She asked what I liked my make up to do and what I usually created myself. Next she showed me her new skincare range which I'll have more on in a future post as I also attended the launch! Though I do have to say it's rare that I'm actually impressed with skincare products these days but her system was brilliant! Usually when I'm wearing a full face of make up by the end of the day when I'm ready to remove it my spot prone skin will be all riled up and I'll end up with pimples and bumps in my skin, but when Lynette used her Skin Care System not only did I notice that the make up stayed even and didn't go patchy on my combination areas but also no pimples appeared at the end of the night! The one product that I definitely NEED in my life is the Holiday Romance Lipstick which Lynette used on my lips which is a Demi Matte True Orange and as soon as the colour was on I absolutely loved it and this is one red toned lipstick I don't have anything like in my collection! It also wears incredibly well! 

I've made a Youtube video talking more about my time there and you can also see the Make up in this video (I took some lovely photos of the make up but my camera decided not to auto focus on any of them!)

Very Cherry with Dolly and Dotty

Dress: c/o Dolly & Dotty. Bag: Primark. Shoes: Evans.


I'm back with a new post today showing you one of the dresses adorable Vintage retro brand Dolly and Dotty sent me across to show you guys and I have to say I'm really impressed! I just wish my photos did it justice but my surroundings were against me when I snapped these!

One of the first things I love about Dolly and Dotty is how true to size the two dresses they sent me were with Vintage Reproduction brands generally speaking I've learnt to always size up so where possible I'll order a UK22 but here both dresses I was sent were UK20's and they fit really well in fact with this Evelyn Retro Swing Dress I find it quite generous particularly around my arms which makes it really comfortable! Another thing is that each dress came with a matching reversible headscarf which is such an adorable idea! Here I just tied it onto my clutch bag, another thing is that this dress came with 2 belts one in a matching print then this plain red one and for how reasonable the price of this is, these little extras are a complete surprise! The only downside for me really is that it's a little long in the body for me but this is something that often happens with me due to being pretty short!

I can't wait for warmer weather so I can wear this bare legged and show the fabulous print off! You can also see a video of the look over on my Youtube Channel here.
