*Dîner En Blanc Style Inspiration

Hi guys!

Today's post is all about if I was invited to a Diner En Blanc party, what would I and my date wear? If any of you guys need inspiration for similar events then keep reading!

A Diner En Blanc party is similar to P. Diddy’s Annual White Party, this exclusive meet-up is all about dressing in your best formal white attire and enjoying a nice dinner. 

First off lets get started on what would I like my date to wear.. I think a nice * White Jacket Tuxedo from TheBlackTux would look great for a Diner En Blanc party!  Check out their entire collection here for tuxedos and suits for any occasion.

For me I would go for a  nice white dress, here are a few that I like from short to floor length!

What would you choose to wear to a Diner En Blanc party?

*Common Bra-blems and how to fix them!

Hands up if you have ever had issues with your bras, *raises hands in the air* I know I have.

I recently discovered a company called ThirdLove who specializes in amazing fitting bras. In this graphic from ThirdLove, they highlight some common Bra- blems that we ladies can face from quad boob - definitely not a good look! To straps digging in and solutions to fixing them!  

I know one problem that I have been finding recently is that I buy a bra in the size that I normally am and finding that they are actually too small (Iv'e done this on several occasions now), which shows I probably should be measured again.

Wearing the right fitted bra is important, wearing a bad fitted one can lead to problems such as neck pain,breast pain and bad support etc. If you're unsure on your size then visit ThirdLove where you can find your perfect fit with just a few questions, 

I hope this helps you all and check out the ThirdLove website, they have some pretty fab bras on there and also I have a 15% code off for  you, just enter PERSONALITY at the checkout!

Getting Fit with Kayla Itsines BBG!

                                                          Hi guys and happy 2016!

I wouldn't say this is a New Years resolution of mine as I have always tried to keep pretty fit. I just need a little help, to stick to a routine and keep going. This is why I have decided to do BBG (Bikini Body Guide) from Kayla Itsines. What perfect time to start the guides than in the new year!

I chose Kayla over all the over guides out there because the results are amazing and speak for themselves.  I also liked that I didn't have to join a gym and that I could do these workouts at home with a bit of equipment.  

AMAZING!

Now I am not quite ready to post my first photo yet (it has been taken) but at 4 weeks I will take my second one and hopefully will be able to show you some change. So far I have done 4 days worth of resistance workouts and a walk on LISS day. I have actually really been enjoying working out and eating healthy. My skin is looking really good right  now!

Is anyone else getting fit for 2016?

Neutrogena Spot Clearing Face Wash and Oil Free Moisturiser

I decided to buy a different face wash and moisturiser as my skin was breaking out which always happens at this time of year for me. I opted for the Neutrogena Visibly Clear Spot Clearing Facial Wash because it contained 2% Salicylic acid which I know helps with spots as it unclogs pores.

I then also got the Oil Free Moisturiser which states that it hydrates, smooths and evens out skin tone.

Starting with the face wash this was on offer but it is currently around £4.49 from Asda and at Superdrug. It does say on the front that this is developed with dermatologists. This is also oil free and is 'a concentrated, yet gentle daily cleanser. It suggests to use this twice daily in the morning and at night.

The moisturiser at £4.50 is also dermatologist tested and also to be applied morning and night on freshly cleansed skin. I have been using this after the facial wash.

Since using both these products it has helped improve my skin. I have far less breakouts and my face feels super clean after using the wash. The moisturiser  is in a small tube but it is lasting me well! My skin feels incredibly soft after using it and it's nice and lightweight and does even the skin a little. These are super cheap too and I am definitely going to stick to these for a bit,

Nivea Men Post Shave Balm as a PRIMER

I am absolutely LOVING using this Nivea Men Post Shave Balm as a Primer. I came across this thanks to Nikkie Tutorials who is an amazingly talented make up artist!

In her video she talks about how she had ran out of her primer and moisturiser and noticed that her boyfriend had this and  so decided to give it a try and  after using this it  makes her makeup last ALL day.

I have never really found a primer that I liked so I never use to prime. As this product is really cheap at £3.00 at Asda at the moment, there was no arguing that I was going to try it.

When using this it is very 'liquidy' as Nikkie states and comes out quite quick so you need to be careful! It also does smell like 'man' but that soon goes once it is absorbed into the skin. It applies nice and cool and on the box it says that it 'alleviates skin redness and dryness' and 'reduces skin sensitivity' and 'skin will feel comfortable and smooth' 

This definitely makes my make up last, it's amazing! I don't think I would not be able to not use this now. My skin also feels incredibly soft after using and my skin doesn't become so oily throughout the day. I also like the coolness it has, it is quite refreshing. My foundation looks really good and I notice a difference if I haven't used this.

For £3.00 you really cam't beat this and I recommend to give it a try if you can.

What's on my face updated

At the moment these are the products that I have been wearing everyday for my make up which has changed quite a bit since my last post What's on my Face Updated.

I have once again gone back to my Double Wear foundation which I apply with a beauty blender and I love the coverage this gives and it lasts all day. I keep this in place with the Rimmel Stay Matte. Before I was using Soap and Glory One Heck of  Blot but I was finding that it wasn't working so well  (my skin has become immune to it, noooo!) and so my skin was becoming oily throughout the day.

To give myself that glow and add some colour back into my skin I've been using Chanel Soleil Tan and Soap and Glory Solar Powder which as you can see the lid has broken off! Also I still use the NO.7 Blush in Coral Flush (this never changes and the sad part is that I can't find this on the Boots website any more in this shade :( ).

I use two mascaras which are the Max Factor False Lash effect which Iv'e always used but now I also like to use Maybelline Lash Sensational as that stuff just stays and creates length! 

I love Anastasia Beverly Hills Dip Brow for brows and Bobbi Brown Eyeshadow in Wheat  to sweeo over my eyes, plus the Soap and Glory SuperCat Eyeliner which isn't in the photo because I forgot to include it, silly me!

For lips I line with MAC Soar and then MAC Velvet Teddy and then sometimes I apply Carmex over the top.

What do you wear everyday?
