My beauty essentials!

I have been super lazy with blogging lately!!
I need to get back into the swing of things. I have ideas for blogs, but its the whole getting my photos from my camera onto my laptop thing which slows the process. I have lost the little USB stick that puts my SD card images onto my laptop !! :( so I'm not sure what the future is for my blog.
Perhaps I will clean my room tomorrow and find it !

So anyway, I thought I would type a little quick post about my beauty favs.
I have shopped a bit in the past few weeks so I have lots of new pieces of clothes and jewels to blog about !! 



1. Nars Primer from Mecca Cosmetica (buy online, much cheaper. screw those mecca rip off merchants!)


First off, I MUST use primer. I'm not sure where I got this into my head, but if i dont have primer under my foundation I feel fez and sook all day. 
My two favs are NARS primer, which I've been using for ages, but I also love the MAC Primer....I think the MAC primer could be more suited to oiler skin and I have drier skin so that's why I use Nars more often.
I feel that primer makes my foundation go on nice and smooth and without it, my face feels dry.



2. Diorshow Blackout 



I LOVE THIS SHIZ!!!! This is my fav out of the Diorshow line. Dunno why. just is! I think all other mascaras are rubbish compared to this king of mascaras. The only downfall is after 3 weeks its like this clumpy horrible TAR on your eyelashes and u gotta get a new one....and at $50 a pop that reeks hard.
I'm full addicted to this like crack and would still buy it if it was $100.
EEP
FYI, Dont get the waterproof unless u want to have this shiz on ur face for like a week. u need paint thinners to get it off.




3. Giorgio Armani, Designer Modeling Compact Foundation.



First off, how lame is the name of this stuff? DESIGNER MODELING?
what the deuce? stupid. When I go to David Jones to buy it I cant even ask for it. I just point at it and ask for one in my colour code. How is it designer or modeling? i dunno. How about they call it " Non liquid foundation in a glass pot thats too heavy for your handbag buts its still awesome"
yep. I love it but I hate how its glass. I got told by a beauty therapist that glass containers are better for keeping bacteria out of makeup. I have no idea how that would work but meh.
I also LOVE that this comes with its own brush. and you don't really need to wash it because by the time u finish the container you get a new one with your next purchase anyways. I'm lazy like that.


4. Nars Laguna Bronzer


If you haven't heard about Nars Laguna Bronzer...then.....you...have been living under a rock? or...you just haven't heard about it. haha.
This is the best bronzer ever! It seems to suit everyone and doesnt go orange. best colour ever! I think it could be Mecca Cosmeticas best selling product as well! i love it!


5. Blistex Lip Conditioner


This is my all time favourite lip balm!
Yes yes I have tried Lucas Paw Paw but it doesnt give me a tingly feeling on my lips like this shiz does. I LOVEEEEE ITT EVERYYDAYYYY XOXOXO BLISTEX

6. Hermes Kelly Caleche
I love this perfume!
I think the smell is so unique. I don't quite know how to describe it.
It doesn't smell fruity or woody or beachy or whatevs I think that is why I like it. The smell changes over time as well.
I might go google its "notes" to make this description a little bit better.

Okay I took this off some perfume blog which came off google

"The notes for the floral leather scent include iris, lily of the valley, mimosa, tuberose and climbing rose."

Err okay I guess its floral, but I wouldn't describe it as floral after smelling it at all. It's weird how I have read in these reviews it smells like leather, because I am a vegetarian...so why would I want to smell like leather?
It doesnt smell like leather. It's kind of like a pretty mens perfume. That is my best attempt at describing Kelly Caleche!


ahhh this was tiring. I find it annoying how blogger keeps telling me I am spelling things wrong with its US spell check.
GrrRRRRRR
COLOUR NOT COLOR JERKS

Could they now have a grammar check? That would be awesome. I hate going back and fixing the errors in my blog posts.

xoxo.

Trashy!!

Trashy ! okay not me ! the bag being me ! hahaha this is my first atempt at trying to do an outfit post and i couldn't find my digicam anywhere! so i used photobooth on my mac and it was really hard! especially because i couldn't open the curtains to get some light in!

So I feel really weird posting outfit ideas. but i feel it is unfair for me to stalk a million fashion blogs without giving something back. and hopefully this will be a journey for me as well.
to add more colour into my 95% ok make that 99% black wardrobe.

Today it was cold in Melbourne. COLD ! 19 ! ok not so bad. but ill use any excuse to wear black opaques.
YAY





Black JayJays cardigan ( xmas present from my mum in 07! )
Sass&Bide "Note To Self" top
Black Kookai dress underneath
Black opaques
Christian Louboutin C'est Moi booties

Jewelery : ( which u can hardly see. i suck at the pics really!)
Blue and black Hermes Click H
Tiffany&Co balls necklace
WhiteGold bangle my parents got made for me when we were in Vietnam in 2001 !
I am wearing rings too but u cant see them so no point listing them!

Here is a close up of my booties because they look black in the pic up top, but they are infact blue. They were an xmas present from CouchShopper.
Thank u my sweetie. xoxo


My blue suede shoes . everytime i see them i MUST sing elvis in my head.

And on the nails,
OPI "Do you lilac it?" polish




and that is that.
the anxiety of the outfit post is over.
its out there for the world to see my chubba body. and 2009 i will lose some lbs!

in the last three days i have eaten well AND exercised.
lets see how long this will stick shall we?!

i need to stop being so pessimistic.
maybe in 2009 i will be more optimistic and happier ! even if it makes me unhappy!

oh and before i forget, i will add what fragrance i was wearing so you can REALLY be there HA!
well no this is just an attempt to tell you all how much i love my new perfume!
Its called Bronze Goddess (LAME) and its from Estee Lauder ( i must be 25 heading on 50)
but it smells like vanilla and coconuts and its the bomb.
BOMB
its so good im scared randoms might lick me if i walk past them.
