I had a great time on Saturday. My friend Steve came and picked me up and we drove off. I was a tiny bit worried because Steven is lovely but he can be very quiet at times and it feels a bit awkward, but I needn't have worried! He was great company on Saturday and we talked and laughed all day. We drove to The Fort which is a big kind of outdoor shopping centre/retail park in Edinburgh, and went to a couple of shops there. I was on a mission to get all 4 different shades of Nails Inc polish free with Glamour magazine and I was successful! I got 3 of them in Superdrug & the last one in Boots :) we then nipped to Ikea where we walked round for a while and spent ages smelling all the candles. We both came out with a bag full of them! After that we took a short drive to a lovely little pub called The Stables which was a proper old fashioned pub with a coal fire and we had lunch there. We drove back in to town after that and went round Sainsbury's, before he dropped me off home :)
After I got home me & bf went out to get Christmas decorations! :) we got everything we wanted. We came home to watch X Factor but didn't have a great night because the guy upstairs decided to have a party with a million people at it and blast his music :( hate hate hate hate.
On Sunday I got up early and went to a Spin class. I used to do them all the time when I was younger but gave them up years ago. It was tough but I really enjoyed myself and I'm looking forward to going to my next one. After that I met my friend Sam and we went for lunch, then viewed a couple of gyms in Edinburgh. I think will be joining Factory Gym, but we are trying to get a discount on the joining fee before we do it! xx
Well last night was ok. I spent ages getting ready and was really happy with how I looked. I wore a little black skirt with small white hearts on it. It is short and quite tight but has a little frilly bit just above the bum. Maybe sounds weird but I promise it's nice! I also wore a loose black top with black crystals stitched around the front tucked in to the skirt, with black tights and chunky boots with chunky heels, which were black with gold buckles & studs. I was really happy with my make up. I normally wear Benefit's Eye Bright on my water line which is a really light pink, almost white and really opens up my eyes. Occasionally I will swap to Urban Decay's Electric 24/7 liner which is a turquoise colour, but that's generally as far as I go with eye liner. But, the other day I bought a GOSH eye liner from Superdrug. I think it's maybe called Dove Grey. I still wore my Eye Bright on my water line but I went for the GOSH line on my top eye lid and I even attempted a sexy little flick! Which I think was pretty successful. On my hair I used a volumising mousse by Aussie, and blow dried it with a large round brush so it was nice and big. Pinned my fringe to the sides and sprayed with Aussie hair spray. It was the first time I used both those Aussie products and I must say I was impressed!
We went to Jamie's Italian, which is an Italian restaurant (duh?) on George Square in Glasgow. Oh and it is owned by Jamie Oliver. It was lovely but I don't think it was anything special and I wouldn't be back in a hurry. After that we headed to The Corinthian which is a pub/club. Looks lovely but was FULL of posers in suits. Old sleazy guys and young sleazy guys that think they're something else. Wasn't in there long.
Also yesterday, before I started to get ready I headed to Princes Street to see if I could find something new to wear. I couldn't, but I popped in to Lush as I'd heard that none other than the best shower gel ever; Snow Fairy, was back out for Christmas, and the rumours were true :-D the Lush on Princes Street was actually having a Snow Fairy party, so all the staff were in pink and I was given a cup of pink Cherryade and a pink wafer! I got a bit carried away and also picked up the Snow Fairy lip tint which is an amazing hot pink colour and of course has that beautiful Snow Fairy scent, which even my boyfriend loves! I don't have to worry about him stealing my shower gel though.... due to the glitter! :)
Well, I'm away for now because I'm going to bed with a boyfriend and a tin of chocolates! ;) xx
