Guest Post: What's In My Bag?

By -
The last "What's In My Bag?" post was extremely popular, so we're back with another one! This time we'll find out what's in Gaelle's bag :). Make sure to check out her blog - The MakeUp Fairy! Here she is: 


What’s in my bag?


I love this sort of tag!


So firstly, here is my bag. I LOVE the print on it. I got it for my birthday and I have been using it every day since. It’s from Cath Kidston and it just feeds into my current floral obsession!



Now for the contents:



I have the worst memory ever so I have two diaries, the big purple one is my work diary (I’m a teacher), and the smaller one is my personal stuff and on top of it, I enter most things into my phone too. Only way I can not forget things and even then I manage to double or triple book myself, mostly at work.


My weight watchers folder with all my info. It helps me to stay on track and remember not to have that Mars bar! And the big pile of paper underneath is the work I’ve taken home to do tonight. Fun fun fun!



Everyday items: my work keys on this green key thing from Berlin. MY external hard drive which contains every bit of work I have done in the last 7 years as well as about 7 years worth of pictures and music. If I ever lose it or if it stops working, I’ll probably have a breakdown.  Same goes for my iPhone, I nearly cried when my Blackberry died but actually I prefer my iPhone now. It is fab! And finally, my gym key for when I muster the energy to go there.


My purse, it’s a Xmas present from my sister and it’s from Ollie and Nic. It’s the one I take to work as I only ever carry small amounts of change to work. Nurofen for the times the kids give me a headache. It happens remarkably often! And to finish with, 5 lip products! Yes 5! two Burt’s Bees lip balms, 1 carmex cherry lip balm, 1 MAC lip conditioner, and 1 MAC sheen supreme lipstick. I think this is New Temptation. Then I wonder why I can never find lip balms on my dressing table!!



Anywho, I hope you’ve enjoyed the post and thank you to Opal for giving me the opportunity to share with you!

As we inch closer to the new year it's a great to reminisce at some of the style high points of 2011! Crazy Hair Colors:  Katy Perry went pink, Charlotte Free went pink, Lady Gaga went pink. It was definitely a wild trend!  Red Hair: This was a popular hair color this year with stars like Drew Barrymore, Demi Lovato, Blake Lively, and Emma Stone rocking their red locks.  Ombre Nails: Ombre hair has been extremely popular trend the last couple of years, but ombre nails made a big splash in the world of fashion this year.  Fuchsia  Lip: This bold lip color was featured at Diane von Furstenberg, but Natalie Portman showed off a more wearable version at the Golden Globes.  Dip Dye Hair: Ombre hair was taken to a completely new level with the introduction of rainbow colors. Lauren Conrad was a huge part of making this such a popular trend.  What were your favorite trends of 2011?

Keratin Hair Treatments: The Answer to All My Problems?

The quest for perfect hair seems like a never ending battle. Products everywhere claim that they will solve all your hair problems, but I have yet to find one that actually will (if you happen to know of one, please tell me :D.) But there is a new process that has caught my eye... keratin hair treatments. What do keratin hair treatments do? Keratin hair treatments involve a process that can get rid of up to 99% of frizz, straighten hair, make hair soft & shiny, and protect the hair from toxins like UV rays, smoke, & pollution. How does this process do it? Wow! This really does seem like the end to my hair battle? Well, keratin is what hair (and nails) are naturally made up of. When we use styling tools, expose hair to chemical processes and toxins in the environment, the keratin in your hair becomes less effective at its job (keeping your hair strong and looking healthy.) Where can I get it and how much will it hurt my wallet? You can get it at a salon and it shou
