Autumn Colour of choice

Revlon have come out with their autumn collection for quite a while and I was fairly slow to get on top of this. However I have to admit, being a woman of colour I find it very hard with collections as they rarely cater for women of colour. 







However one thing that I did pick out whilst in Superdrug the other day was their black and purple facets of Fuchsia Nail Enamel. It is lots of sequins and glitter and is fairly hard to put on, but with termination it does pay off once you have 2-3 coats on. Definitely a good buy for this autumn, matching with the berry reds and purples that we are seeing.

Sorry for being M.I.A



Been slightly busy with a few project recently, nothing beauty related so i won't bore you. I have been shopping so I have a few things to review, but the big thing I have been battling with at the minute is A) Finding a job, B) My weight gain and lastly C) MY WEIGHT GAIN!!!!!

I am a new non-smoker, and have been since Feb this year. No cravings, no dying for a fag; just my eating habits has stayed the same, which trust me is  not a good thing. Not only did my weight gain start when I quit smoking but also when I started driving, about two years ago. So from my petite 7 and a half stone to a muchhhhh heavier number, and the breaking point was when I had to rip a dress literally from my body. NO JOKE.

So my new focus whilst looking for a job is exercise, exercise, exercise. The Wii is my new my best friend.
