OOTN & FOTN!

I recently went out for a friends birthday and I thought I'd share with you all what I wore because I loved my outfit. My shoes especially, if you follow me on twitter (@slhxbeauty) then you'll know just how excited I was to bag the bargain that was my shoes!
What I wore:
  • Black sequin dress (Glamorous)
  • Green Shoes (Office)
  • Leather Jacket (H&M)

I've wanted some green heels for ages and so when I found these beauties in Office I had to get them. The best bit? They were reduced from £65 to £39 with a further 20% off so they ended costing just under £32! I was literally so excited I think the sales assistant thought I was just a little crazy!

As this is a beauty blog I have to give my make up a little mention!
My hair was in a really simple pony tail and then I went for a nice bronzed look. I wore:
I had such a fun night and I'm so glad I finally got to take my new favourite shoes on an outing!

January Favourites

I've been so busy recently that January has literally just flown by! This month for me, personally, has been filled with stress and drama so if I'm honest I'm glad to see the back of it! Most of the products I've been using regularly this month as the same as usual but I've tried not to include products you've seen a million times before on my blog.
First on the list is my Piz Buin Lotion + Colour Dial fake tan, which I picked up for the bargain price of £3.99 in Quality Save I'm really regretting not stocking up on this fake tan as mine is nearing an end and I can't find it anywhere else for such a low price! (I thought I'd include a picture of my minging fake tan mitt). I love how this fake tan give such a lovely natural colour, as you can see I use it on the darkest colour so that I get a lovely colour after just one application. Please let me know if you'd like a review of this product!
I've pretty much been using the same cheek products every day this month! I've been using MAC's L/E Crystal Pink MSF as a highlight (it makes a beautiful highlight when I'm going for a more bronzed look). As for a blush I've been alternating between MAC's Cheek and Cheerful L/E Mineralize Blush and Maybelline's Dream Touch Blush in Shade 2 a pretty peach shade.
Shock! Chanel's Bronze Universal is my favourites...yet again! I use it in place of fake tan on my face and neck. I bought the Bourjois Delice de Soleil on a whim and I'm so glad I did, I love it! It's a really nice natural looking bronzer, as the can is only small I only use this on my face but you can use on your body too. I've be posting a review of this very soon.
I recently bought the Sigma Synthetic Kabuki Kit (which I love, I've taken pictures so a post will be up very soon!) and whilst I was initially using the infamous F80 for foundation I much prefer using the F84 Angled Top Kabuki for a flawless foundation application. The angled head makes it easy to blend foundation around the eye and nose areas. I'm in LOVE with this brush, it's great!

What have you been loving this month?
