Kate Bosworth - Cute Look

Spotted this photo of Kate Bosworth at the Calvin Klein Men’s and Women’s Spring 2010 Collections Preview Benefit and just really loved her whole look. The outfit and make up, it all looks sooo pretty and cute! 

Natural FOTD

Back to work today! Gotta love Monday mornings (not!)
I work as a Business Support Manager at a corporate law firm in the city which means my daily outfits are most of the time very corporate. Make up wise I do try to switch it up and don't always go for the natural look but today I did.

♥ Lips:

NYX Beige Megashine Lipgloss

I am really loving my new NYX Beige Megashine lip gloss. Find it interesting that they call it "Beige" as to me it's definitely more a light pink.

Do you agree?

PS: Sorry I realise I need to getting better at taking photos - they are not very clear, my apologies!!

Quick MAC Haul

Hi lovelies,

Went to the MAC store at lunchtime today to choose my 2 FREE new lipsticks as part of their "back to MAC program". After lots of umm-ing and ahh-ing I got the below two shades!

♥ MAC Lovelorn (Emotive blue pink - Lustre)
♥ MAC Blankety (Soft pink beige - Amplified Creme)

(no flash)

(with flash)

Lovelorn had been on my wish list for a while and I decided on Blankety after a reading about this colour on Ebrushka's blog. At the MAC store they put crosses through the bottom labels of my new free lipsticks, which I thought was strange. Apparently this is a new thing MAC is doing; it means you cannot use the two free lipsticks you got for the back to MAC program. You can always hand them in to be recycled but you can't use them in the count for 6 plastic items for your next back to MAC selection. I wonder if this is a new world wide thing or only in NZ?
