A Fluttering Affair ♥

Wearing these beautiful eyelashes, namely Eyelure's Girls Aloud Nicola pair, has made me feel all glam :)

I put these beauties on to make a video yesterday, and I have to say before hand I was an falsies virgin - only venturing to wear them once before at a party with disastrous consequences, but this time I managed to apply them with my first try and I just loved how they looked :)

They feel light and natural to touch and were really easy to put on - today I wore them again, despite the fact that I'm not going out, just for a bit of fun :). Worn with Woodwinked all over the eyelid, Phloof! in the inner corner and a few dabs of Pretty Please, all by MAC, on the lips.

A truly fluttering affair :)

Thanks for reading dolls! 

BIG love, dais x

baby, it's cold outside

In the spirit of Christmas, I thought I'd post some yummy festive pictures :)

I won't take credit for this little beauty, my mother (aka domestic goddess) baked this treat and adorned it in dainty little pale blue snowflakes. Simply gorgeous.

Have a really happy christmas guys :')


Much love,

questions and answers

This tag has been going around the blogs for awhile now and I fancied a go at answering the questions :) 
I haven't been personally tagged to do this but I figured that didn't really matter so here we go :)


1. What is your dream job?
Well, there are a mixture of things that I would love to do - however I am still searching for a job that includes all of them in one. I love writing more than anything in the world - it's, at a risk of sounding cheesy, my passion :) and I have infact written a novel which i'm really proud of (mostly because of it's length). However I also love writing and reading articles and am particularly interested in media, broadcasting, beauty, fashion, celebrity journalism etc and I think it would be more likely that I could get a career in this as I have been told that it's quite a struggle to get a book published because so many people are trying. 
I also secretly would love to be a television presenter, mostly because I like the idea of the lifestyle I would live being one and I am so interested in people and I love socialising and that's a big part of that job.
And I have to say I would never rule out acting - not theatre phantom of the opera style :P but just something on television that would be fun and really rewarding.
As you can see, I'm pretty undecided. Any tips would be gladly accepted :)


2. What is your favourite fragrance for winter?
I am actually between perfumes at the moment but something musky and slightly sweeter. I leave lights florals for when it's hot.


3. How do you take tea or coffee?
Well, I take my tea two ways depending on my mood: either really weak (like teabag dipped in for about a minute) and no milk or sugar and piping hot. Or strong and milky and sugary so i can pretend to be a builder.
I only drink coffee when I'm out and I have enough money to pop into starbucks - and then it's a 'skinny vanilla latte with sugar free syrup and a rocky road' mmmm :).


4. What is your most important beauty secret?
To take your makeup off properly every night. I have myself only just realised the importance of this - i suffer from breakouts quite often and since I've taken my makeup off thoroughly, cleansed, toned and used a cream wash then used my panoxyl gel (which is medicated) every night it's made a world of a difference. Do it! 


5. If you had an all expenses paid vacation anywhere, where would you go?
That's easy. I would go to New York, stay in the Ritz, travel everywhere in a limousine, drink starbucks whilst browsing the shelves in Chanel and dine in michelin star restaurants with my best friend. Gorge :).


6. If a genie popped into your lap right now and offered you three wishes, what would they be?
Hmm... 1. To have just enough money to never need to worry, for me and my family. 2. For my book to be published and to become a best seller. 3. To meet someone perfect for me and fall in love :)


7. If you could only have breakfast, lunch, dinner or dessert foods for the rest of your life, which one would you pick?
Well, I don't have that much of a sweet tooth so it wouldn't be dessert. And breakfast is the bane of my life so it would have to be lunch or dinner. Lunch, I think. Because that's when I get the most hungry and I love savoury foods. Eating is one of the best things in the whole world :).


8. If you had the chance to pick a famous person for your other half to meet, who would you choose for them?
I don't have a other half! Pass :).


9. What is your biggest makeup pet peeve?
Hm, I'm kinda obsessed with eyebrows looking perfect. I think messy ones look baaad and if they're neat then your whole face looks instantly lifted and beautiful :)


10. If you could only wear one piece of jewellery for the rest of your life what would it be?
A simple necklace. I just got this one from Urban Outfitters with a 'D' of it and it's absolutely beautiful - haven't taken it off since I got it.


11. What one talent do you wish you had?
I wish I could sit down at a piano and just play. I learnt the piano for years and got to grade three but I hated the monotonous learning of exam pieces. I also wish I could really, really sing - I would love a voice like Lea Michele's - I think she's absolutely incredible and her voice really moves me :).


12. The product you will continue to purchase?
This is a tricky because I don't really repurchase that often. I can't think of anything at all!


13. If you could look into the future would you? What would you want to know?
I wouldn't want to. I believe everything happens for a reason and I want everything to be a surprise :).


14. Who is your biggest celebrity crush? (include pictures)
It changes aaall the time! But at the moment I'm just a tad obsessed with the lovely One Direction boys who were on X Factor this year and came third. My favourite is Zayn ;).


15. What made you start a blog?
Well, my friend hebe had one and I thought it might be fun to get one too and it all went from there :).


I tag everyone to do this :)


Hope you enjoyed lovies :)
much love, Daisy x

ooh, you're making me blush..

In the hope that I receive lots of shiny money at Christmas this year I have already begun to plan what I'm going to buy :). Maybe it's a bit hopeful but never mind ;).

I am lusting after a x6 pro blush palette from MAC and have been spending my spare time perusing swatches online and choosing the six shades that I'm going to fill the palette with :).

and here they are:

Frankly Scarlet - Matte

A goooorge bright rosy red and it's matte which i lurr-uh-veee

Coygirl - Sheertone

A really caaute light rose - perfect for pretending to be barbie.

Sunbasque - Sheertone Shimmer

A gorgeous shimmery plum with a pearly sheen.

Pinch Me - Sheertone

A dirty, dusky coral with a lovely rosy background tone.

Well Dressed - Satin

A much talked about pretty pink - hopefully it'll live up to expectations.

Pink Swoon - Sheertone

A really pretty pure baby pink.

So that's the six gorgeous shades - what do you think of my choices?

Hope you're all having a lovely weekend :)

Hey everybody :)

It's another cop out post today hehee..

Just some prettiful pictures that I found on the lovely site that is weheartit to distract me even further from the revision that I should be doing for my mocks which start tomorrow.

But it's just biology and maths, so this is far more important ;)
