Justin Bieber - Under the Mistletoe - Updated!!

Ok, in the past day - whilst crazily driving all over Adelaide keeping up appearances,  I've had JB's Christmas album blasting in the car...


I hate to go back on my original opinion but..

It's really, really grown on me. Really, grown on me... 

I've had this song on repeat for an entire day - F5'n my way to about 50 thousand views (you're welcome JB). Made it my ringtone, and my message tone (which on second thoughts isn't such a clever idea Lizzy). Jesus it's such a ridiculous combination of lameness and perfection! I hear a choir of 16 year old's shouting amen from the gallery - I know ladies, I feel the JB lovein' too. 

I thought I'd better correct my poor former opinion before bed time - how dare I be so quick to judge my little talented bb! - Although the 'Little Drummer Boy' track is still lame!

Have the best sleep ya'll! (or day, depending on where you're tuning in from =^.^=)

Bisous xxxx

Best of Biggie

It's no secret - I love Notorious BIG... as much as this baby!!

Suss the attitude in his nod around 0.47

gratuitous saturday && christmas cheer!

“I think it’s healthy to hate. I think it’s extremely healthy, because without hate, you cannot see love. Without red, there wouldn’t be any green. That’s not a very good metaphor but, you know, it’s the same.”

I came across the above quote today - it couldn't have appeared at a better time, and I couldn't agree with it more! A little something in that for everyone I think...

But gosh what a week! Working late shifts/two jobs, super sore mouth, crazy bishes being crazy, nothing but liquid foods - but as of today everything has seemed to calm down. Today was bliss - although I was a little grumpy I was lucky enough to be cuddled and taken care of in bed for the entire day. I'm a sook; so easily won over with kind words, a snuggle and a smoothie (take note! I will be putty in anyone's hands)- I needed to make a little note about how loved I feel right now. I have a very special boyfriend, and the most kick ass friends anyone could possibly be blessed with. I'm a very lucky girl.

On a brighter less mushy note: Christmas!! It's just around the corner; I realised this today after hearing that the Credit Union Christmas Pageant was partying down North Tce (while I was nicely tucked up in bed). Ok, that is a lie - I've been blasting Justin Bieber's Christmas album for the past week - but hearing the pageant was today did hit hard that Christmas is so close!

Speaking Justin Bieber's Christmas album: I'm not impressed.

....I know what you're thinking... I didn't think those words would ever escape from my lips either. Although I generally shove my love for JB down everyone's throats -  this is a a private page where I can sneakily admit that I'm slightly disappointed in my under-age man-child boyfriend of dreams' latest work. Seriously JB, what the ****? The 'juxtaposition' (lol) of traditional 'Little Drummer Boy' followed by a not so cohesive rap segment where you compare yourself to Michael Jackson - puhlease. Embazza to the max!!

Leave it to the professionals next time bab - stick with singing songs about how you'll fix all the sad loney girls hearts with a kiss - that pleases me.

David Bowie and Bing Crosby - Little Drummer Boy = perfection!

I'm off to visit some gorgeous friends to share a delicious mango -before heading off to work this evening! My mother is the absolute cutest - She called me today almost crying with joy: She had found the perfect mango, first of the season. I thought she was kidding  but when she gave it to me my mind blew!

IT'S HUGE! and looks so sweet! 

Have the best night! I know I will: giant mango and x4 giant V's thanks to the MW3 launch!

Finger's crossed for big tips! 

Bisous xxxx

Phat Beats

Feelin' good, feelin' great - feelin' great, feelin' good, how are you? ohhh..

A little Outkast before I sign off for the evening! - enjoy your Friday! Have a Bloody Mary and a dance for me! Celebrate being awesome and weird, weird's all you got biatch!!

Embrace your inner Disney Princess!

Hello my lovely blogging friends!

(a special hello to all of you ladies, and gentlemen tuning in from all around the world -I've had some hits from some amazing countries!!)

I have something to confess: so early on in this blogging world I was unfortunately being harassed via an Anon commenter - It seemed every post I made could not please this little troll! Apparently my massive weight gain obstructed her viewing my lovely blog!

Being confident and comfortable with my good looks - it didn't phase me. However I was curious as to why a complete stranger felt the need to tell me I was morbidly obese and hideously unattractive!! I've kept this blog very private - only people who know me would be able to find it and know who I was, so I was evil eyeing quite a few on my facebook friends list, trying to work out who it was! (sorry lovelies)

Long story short, if some of you were readers from the beginning, I posted a small rant on my dislike for women contacting my boyfriend (or any male/female for that matter) whilst they're in my company. I was obviously feeling starved of attention and slightly jealous - so I wrote a (hilarious!) post about my frustration. I may have mentioned this young ladies name thinking this was totally private, and turned it into an amusing pun... and then wrote something about her being culturally confused... but the point is!: I deleted that post, because I felt bad - she was no one to me, and I was being irrational... OR WAS I?

I must say, miss trollface has some exceptional lurking skills! How on earth did she find me, must give her kudos for that!

From then on in, every, single, post, ever - was commented on by this little troll. Sometimes even photo shopped photos of myself were posted, with links 4chan etc- I mean thankyou for taking time and effort out of your day, and spending so much time on little ol' me, I'm sincerely flatted really! However after a small slip up on her part, I was able to google "excalibur noir" - as the comment was not on private, and hello hello! Third hit, miss troll face herself - mutual friends with my boyfriend, and fitting the perfect description of the comment's owner.


At first I was rather annoyed - then amused, some of her comments were quite hilarious! However I don't stand for bullying - it's too high school. People's lives are a million times more stressful out of school, and bullying, whether it be via keyboard warriors on blogs, or in the flesh I will not stand for it.


I live by my own saying - being "embrace the Disney princess within". You've probably noticed that I am a Disney fiend! One of those girls who will see a Disney branded dish cloth and think "omg what is this? I need this! I've got to have this Disney princess dish cloth to match my Disney princess cutlery" - It's sad.

But whenever I have the need to scream/yell/punch/ etc at someone - I take a minute and think, what would Mulan do? Or Belle? Or Auora?

These cartoon characters have a lot to teach us! Patience, kindness, and love! (gosh this got sappy fast - but it's true). Maybe give it a go sometime :)

OR... if Disney Princesses aren't your thing, try Dolly Parton (Aunt Dolly) - that woman is sparkly loveliness personified!

Apologies for the long rant - but I needed to get it off my chest! Looking forward to more blogging fun in the future!

Bisous! xxxxxxx

ps. (amusing side note - miss troll has no picture's of herself on facebook - I think I'd rather be fat than too ugly to show my face on my own facebook! I mean, disney princess, disney princess, disney princess...)

Lulz!

On absolutely no sleep and no food!

But feeling exceptionally wonderful! ^.^ Bring on an awesome weekend!! Yewww.

These are my gorgeous best friends - they haven't made much of an appearance on this Blog yet. But I love them none the less - gorgeous bunch aren't they!

Almay - smoky eye kit, for green eyes

Today I was at the hairdresser - shamelessly getting my hair washed and blow-dried due to the fact I broke my recently purchased silver bullet (oops) and couldn't go a day with curly hair. Whilst flicking through a magazine I came across an advertisement for Almay - with Kate Hudson advocating a smoky eye-shadow kit specially for Green Eyes! Having green eyes myself I jumped at the thought of complimentary eye-shadow colours and immediately went to Priceline after to purchase it! (oh! the power of advertising)

Having a Blog gives me the power of writing reviews! So, I thought I'd give it a go! (bare with my lackluster newbie effort!)

 This is what the packaging for the kit looks like! You can purchase all the products separately however this great gift pack is a much cheaper ($29.95!) and cuter option - available at Priceline currently! Could even pass as a stocking filler for Christmas!

The back of the box gives you step by step guide on how to apply the smoky eye look. I apologise for the poor photo - I will re write the instructions at the end of this post. However they are super easy to follow!

The inside of the box displays the three products you get in the kit! An 'Almay intense I-colour' eyeliner, an 'intense I-colour smoky-i kit', and an 'intense i-colour' black mascara.

The instructions advise you to prep your eyelid with a concealer to create a smooth canvas to work with - I used my L'oreal super stay concealer. Then, trace the upper lash line with the intense i-colour eye-liner, starting from the inner corner and working towards the outer corner, blending the as you go with the smudge tip of the eye-liner (repeat between the lower lashes and softly smudge).  Once adequately blended, apply the darkest colour eye-shadow to the entire lid - in my case the dark purple/plum colour. Next, apply the lighter middle shade in the crease of your lid, then sweep the shimmery highlighter shade from the crease to the brow bone - blending as you go. The eye-shadow pallet is set out like an eye, so if you are unsure of the colours etc, just follow the packaging - its super easy!

To finish apply a generous coat of Almay mascara (I'm a sucker for giant lashes so I've gone over a few times with my L'oreal Telescopic mascara) and voila! The look smoky eye look is complete!

Trying to show the eye-shadow but looking like I have a lazy eye! 

I've never used an Almay product before - have to say I'm rather content with my purchase! 

Pros:

• The colours are easily set out in the product packaging and the instructions are good - simple to follow
• The colours are true to the pallet; they come out just as you see them in the packet - the gorgeous plum colour is rather intense, therefore you only need one patted on layer. I had to do a little extra blending between the dark plum and lighter grey because the colour created a really stark line on my eyelid
• The brow bone eye shadow is super sparkly! I love it! (I also used it in the inner corners of my eye) 
• The colours DO actually enhance the natural eye colour (well they did for me!) 
• Its great for people who are bad at choosing eye shadow shades that compliment each other to create smokey eye effect - the pigmentation of pallet is very good. Very easy to apply! 

Cons:

• It's not really a con, but I'm a big believer in liquid eye-liner! So I used very little of the black eye pencil and instead made a sweeping line across my eyelid and winged outer corner with liquid eye-liner. I put some of the plum colour on my bottom water line to even out the top heavy colours. 

Important:

• There is no point to smoky eyes without a defined eye-brow! Definied eyebrows are the way of the future! Get involved with a good eye brow pencil! (I use a Revlon wind up one  - its amazing, I'll do a whole post on it soon!)
