New Addition to my Chanel Family :) + Hair mask Details

Hello again hehe :) 
Today I have the luxury of being at home as the weather isn't that great today and it keeps raining :( 

I purchased a new addition to my Chanel Family during the week and it was a beautiful Chanel Brooch. I have to say that I was inspired by the girls in the series of "The Only Way Is Essex". I am absolutely obsessed with that show and there are two girls who always wear Chanel and they just made me buy it :)
How beautiful is it!! I did want a bigger one with diamonds however I thought that might be a bit too much for everyday wear so I settled with this one and I'm glad that I did because I absolutely love it!!!
In the next pictures it is me being silly but also showing the way in which I wore it to work one day. I had a puffy black skirt on with a gorgeous sweater and my Chanel brooch which made the outfit perfect!
The lighting for this one wasn't great but I love the way my hair looked in this photo!! And I'll get to how I got my hair looking like this in a minute :P
Beauty.
hehehe
I think I am totally in love with this outfit :) because of my new brooch :)

Chanel will always have a weak spot in my heart!

Going back to the previous photos of my hair. So I prepared a hair mask for myself which consisted of Olive Oil and Honey. Then I washed my hair and during the drying process I twisted my hair. I split it into two sections (like you would when plaiting it in two) then i just kept twisting it and then blow dried over the twists for about 5-10 minutes till its almost dry.
Then I slept with them twisted and in the morning I undid the twists and I had beautiful waves and curls in my hair.
It really doesn't take very long as you can just sit there and twist your hair when watching a movie or chilling out :)

The ingredients for the Hair mask:
1. Take a bowl and put three table spoons of Olive Oil and put in the bowl. 
2. Then take 1.5-2 table spoons of honey and add it to the bowl.
3. Stir it around quickly then place into the microwave for about 20 seconds.
4. Take it out and mix it to ensure that they combine.
5. let it sit for 10 minutes to set.
6. Then tie your hair up in a low pony tail. (Ensure you have an old t-shirt and a towel over your shoulders)
7. then get the hair mask and apply it with your hands to the pony tail of your hair (not the roots)
8. once you have used the whole mask and massaged it in let it sit in your hair for about 20-30 minutes. Then you can wash it out.

I can say that I saw a very big difference in my hair as it was super soft and so moisturised! It washes out very easily and depending on the thickness of your hair you can an extra spoon of olive oil and honey and leave it for half hour.



3 weddings down, 2 more to go for 2012

Good afternoon everyone, 

I didn't even realize it was the afternoon... I woke up a little too late hehe oops! Well I had a wedding lastnight and it was quite nice. The venue was really nice as it was refurbished and they did spend quite a lot of money on it so I think it was worth it. I have a few photos to share with you all. 

I was being quite lazy to the lead up of this wedding and didn't bother buying a new dress hehe so I just wore a plain black dress with some nice black shoes and wore a striking red lipstick hehe :) see for yourselves enjoy!!

Here is my brother and I at home just before we left for the wedding, being silly as usual :)
Here is me at the end of the night. I took a photo with one of the roses from the table :)


Here is my cousin Aylin and I :) She's so gorgeous I love her :)
Here is me again :) I loved my hair, I think if you want to change up your hair every now and again putting a braid through the front is always a great way of doing it! And I would like to thank my best friend for that hehe

Hair hair hair!

I'm absolutely loving the up style of buns lately...

There are soooo many ways of having your hair up in a bun..

You can have a messy bun a high bun low bun etc. but I particularly love the new trend of the buns with braids however I'm not sure if I will ever perfect that on my own. Here is one which I specially like....

Henna Night!

soo I had another henna night on last weekend with the wedding this weekend! 

And I just wanted to share what I wore and how I looked on that night... I had a dress one which was gorgeous with gold shoes and my hair was wavy/curly and looked pretty good :) My earrings are the new ones I got from Mimco the weekend before that hehe :)

enjoy!
It seems to be wedding season this year! I've had almost a wedding every 3 months! With another one following in June and then at the end of the year...

From casual to sleek to holiday..

Hi Again!

This time I have some outfits set for the perfect occasion for everyone depending on where you are off to ofcourse :)

The first is something casual, simple yet so chic! I could see myself wearing this everyday however I work in the corporate world so I can't really :(
Here is another outfit which is suited perfectly for a Roman Holiday :) I particularly the YSL sweater and the Marni shoes they look amazingly different :)

This next one is also very very nice and I think it suits my personality as I love pretty much everything in this picture... The green shirt which you see by stella McCartney, I have something which looks exactly the same as this and I wear it all the time! I love it! It looks amazing with everything whether it be skinny leg dark light or black jeans, black pants or even a skirt :) It is very versatile!!
I love that skirt by Derek Lam and the Chloe bag... this picture is like my heaven... hehe :) enjoy!
All these pictures and outfits are thanks to net-a-porter.com :)

over 500 views!!!

Hello all!!!

I want to say Thank you to everyone who has been viewing and following my blog as I have reached over the 500 viewer mark!! I never thought this would happen so soon but I am so glad and happy that it has!

Today we had a day off from work (YAY) because today is Anzac Day! It is a day for us to remember those who lost their lives and fought for their country in Gallipoli which is located in Turkey. 

Today I also decided to finally use my home made hair mask! Which is made from Olive Oil and Honey. It's quite easy to make and apply to the hair.

First you have to put 3 table spoons of olive oil into a bowl, then 1.5 table spoons of honey. Mix this and then put it in the microwave for 15-20 seconds.

Take it out and stir for one minute then let it set for 10minutes. After that tie your hair up in a low pony tail and then apply to the hair in your pony. Let this sit for 20-30 minutes then wash it out :) 
My hair feels absolutely amazing!!!! So I definitely recommend this to everyone :) Also, don't forget to wear an old t-shirt and have a towel over your shoulders so it doesn't go all over everything!
