Last Thursday it was my twenty second birthday. I am now officially getting old - as someone wrote on my Facebook 'Welcome to the Jungle - it sucks'.
Despite me banning anyone from saying my actual age I did have a fabulous birthday and I shall share with you my outfit, hair and make-up from the day!
I wore this dress (It's bloody short so ALWAYS WEAR WITH TIGHTS) from Oasis.
Earlier in the day I met up with my bestie in London and was in a manic rush (If you ever meet me....I'm always late. Always.) so I grabbed the first pair of black tights I could find and put them on - they turned out to be my Henry Holland Suspender tights complete with huge ladder all down the back. Needless to say I wandered around Covent Garden feeling (and looking) like an off-duty lady of the night. I changed into slightly more demure and less hooker-esque tights as soon as I came home.
I wore my trusty Foxy Locks Extensions and have been using this beauty in order to achieve voluminousity
(definitely a word).

The great thing about this product is that, having tried and tested many 'volume-promising' products, it's very easy to spray just a tiny bit too much and end up with the opposite of sky-high hair and end up with a lank, sticky barnet. Amazingly, I've found that with this product, For once more really is more!

Onto the make-up...

and...
'Soap and Glory Sexy Mother Pucker XL Extreme Plump' - what a mouthful!
(See what I did there?)
I picked this up on a whim when I was in Boots because, well, I am an advertisers DREAM and believe absolutely anything that I'm told. However, I was pleasantly surprised by this and found that it really did make my lips look slightly fuller. It tingles ever so slightly but I wouldn't say it's painful and it doesn't last very long and it leaves behind a very pleasant non-sticky, slightly minty clear shine.
I will let you lot be the judge regarding my temporary trout pout...
So that was my actual birthday! I don't have many photos from my birthday night-out
but I will leave you with this gem....

Don't apply your lipstick in the dark without a mirror kids!
