Spotted OOTD and a Braided Mini Ponytail

Phew it’s been a big week this week!

First video in an OOTD, this one features one of the dresses I got from DreamV. I think I might take it apart and make it a shirt/skirt combo because it’s a bit big and long as a dress so I can’t wear it without a belt 😀

And another OOTD which features a pink formal gown I was sent. I feel like a princess in it XD

Next is  a hair tutorial which was originally  in an OOTD post and was requested. It’s a mini high ponytail with a braid leading up to it.

And a while ago our family all came to visit at once. My Mum lives in Melbourne but all of James’ family plus my Dad came down on the same weekend. Many hijinks ensued XD

Hope you all had a good weekend! ^_^

Dark Red And Black – Morning Make Up

A new segment I’m trying out where in I show my morning make up routine for various days and chat about what I’m doing that day. Not really a tutorial, more of a random girly chat while we get ready together in the bathroom 😉

Today’s style features red and black, it’s a much darker look than I usually wear but I’ve been experimenting with some fun rock styles! It’s lots of fun to try something new every now and then! .

Dark Red And Black Morning Make Up Instructions.
Time for another random Morning Make Up video in which I do my make up and we chat.
Today is a very dark black and red to match the tartan dress I was wearing.
Foundation first as usual and then I started with some mascara.
I’m so tired.
I applied a wing of black shadow to the outer corners of my eyes.
I haven’t been sleeping well at all.
I brought the black down to the lower lash line.
I keep having the worst nightmares and they keep me up all night
Next I added a bright red over the black and brought it in to cover the middle of the lid.
It’s so frustrating because I can’t work out what’s causing them!
Do you guys have nightmares much? It really sucks.
I hurt my shoulder a while ago too which makes it awkward to sleep on so maybe that’s what’s waking me up too.
I filled in the rest of the lid in using a peach shade.
Being tired all the time makes me very grumpy and snappy.
After that it was time for a hell of a lot of blending.
James has nightmares too sometimes but his are about taking tests at school!
Next was a little highlighter which also softened the edges a bit.
My nightmares tend to be completely ridiculous situations.
I applied black pencil liner to the bottom waterline.
They are usually funny when I wake up but scary while I’m still asleep!
Then I applied a thick winged line of liquid liner to the top.
I brought it down to the lower lash line a little too.
Any tops for getting rid of nightmares? I could really use some.
Then I repeated it on the other side.
I can’t live on this little sleep!
Then I added some false lashes.
Or maybe I’ll just start drinking lots and lots of coffee and never sleep! I’ll be vibrating off the walls.
This is such a bold look that I just used a little nude lipstick and gloss on top.
If face in this video, I kind of look like I’m falling asleep a bit now.
All done! I look pretty tired because I haven’t been sleeping well but it’s a really pretty look and I’d like to try it again when my eyes are a bit less puffy.
I hope this was a useful video, please check out the blog post linked in the description for more information and tutorials.
Thanks so much for watching!
Night night!

Braided Mini Ponytail Hairstyle Instructions!
Hello!
Today’s video is a tutorial which was requested from an outfit post that I did a little while ago.
This style is a small overhead braid ending in a mini ponytail.
Basic knowledge of how to braid will be needed for this tutorial.
Grab a section of hair from the top of your head and pin out of the way.
Tie the rest of your hair out of the way so it doesn’t get caught up.
Pin your fringe too and then release the top section.
Take a small section from the top on one side and begin the braid.
Continue the braid all the way over to the other side of the head until you run out of hair.
Keep the sections fairly loose so they are a bit puffy.
You don’t want it to sit too flat on the head otherwise it will be too hard to see.
Tie it up into a ponytail.
unpin and brush out the rest of your hair.
In the outfit of the day video this is from, I wore it with a front quiff but it’s just as cute with it down.
I like to add a flower for a spring look.
You can also pull the braid out a bit more to make it even puffier.
I think braids like this work best with slightly unwashed hair or you can use some sea salt spray to give them texture and make them super puffy.
Done!
This style is very cute for summer or winter but I prefer it in the warmer months.
I hope this was a useful video. Please check out the blog post linked in the description for more information and a photo tutorial.
Thanks so much for watching!
Bye!

Puppy Introduction and Finally a Curly One Sided Updo Tutorial! Also Kiss Nail Sticker!

Round up time!

First up my favorite video of all time because it features Miss Lottie!


This tutorial has been requested for aaaages and honestly I’m not sure why I didn’t do it earlier, it’s so easy XD So here’s my all time favorite hairstyle, the big curly one sided thing… it really needs a catchier name -_-‘

This week I played with the first set of Kiss Nail Stickers which were given to me by the lovely Sefie! I preferred these to the other vinyl ones I’ve tried which had a tendency to peel off and the designs are very blingy 😀

Following on form Zombies last week, here is the behind the scenes video! It’s pretty funny, well the dancing is XD This is what usually happens on our photo shoots haha!

Hope you all had a good weekend! ^_^
