Big Fat Greek Wedding ;)

My cousin Michael's wedding was absolutely amazing! Michael and Katerina got married on Saturday 27th August. Mike and Kat met at Greek School (how cute!?); so they have literally known each other their whole life. 
What I Wore: A strapless nude, lace dress from H&M and nude high heels from Next. 

It started early, as we had to be at Michael's house at 12 o'clock to do the greek traditions. We then made our way to the church. Katerina looked absolutely beautiful, and her dress was soo stunning! It was such a beautiful service, and i think we all got a bit teary eyed when they were finally pronounced man and wife :) The only downside was that as soon as Mike and Katerina were meant to make their way out of the church, so we could all throw the confetti, it begin to chuck it down with rain :'( Typical British weather!

The reception was held at The Grove in Watford! Such a beautiful place! The hall was so cute full with fairy lights! The meal was super tasty unsurprisingly!
Me and my cousins danced all night which meant the heels had to come off and my flats came on :P I honestly had such an amazing time and Mike and Kat make such a beautiful couple!

Madeira


So my lovelies, i am back from Madeira (sadly!) I have to say i had an absolutely amazing holiday. The weather was soo hot and lush; i got myself a nice little tan :) I had soo much fun and i don't think there was ever a moment i was not laughing! We always end up having certain phrases/jokes that
we repeat throughout the holiday. Haha. The scenery is unbelievable and the people there are so nice!
One of my highlights of the holiday has to be the water volleyball match against the staff. It was HILARIOUS! The staff got on soo well with us that they asked us to play in the staff team the following week haha. :)  
Hope you all had lovely holidays! I sure did!
Much Love C xx

MAC- Over


On Tuesday my mum and I went to Brent Cross as we had booked an appointment for us to have a makeover at the MAC counter. I absolutely LOVED it! We had our makeup done in preparation for my cousin's wedding which is later on this month. To have a makeover at the MAC counter costs £25, but with that money you also get to purchase £25s worth of products..WIN WIN SITUATION!
I have got to say MAC makeup is such good quality. I asked the make up artist to do me a natural, smokey eye kind of look (my dress for the wedding is nude). She done such a good job.


I absolutely loved my makeover especially my eyes!
With the £25 i bought MAC Gel Eyeliner and a MAC eyeliner brush. It is definitely the best eyeliner i've used and i recommend people try it.

REVIEW: Bed Head Foxy Curls


I've always struggled to find a good hair product so when i was given this Contour cream from my Aunty (who is  my hairdresser) i couldn't wait to give it a try! My hair is naturally curly/wavy but the problem
i have is that whenever i wash my hair my curls don't look very nice until the next morning (once i've slept on my hair) and my hair gets a little bit frizzy. This causes such a problem on holiday in the evenings when we go out to dinner, because my hair doesn't curl nicely unless i sleep on it (i obviously do not have the time in the evenings to do that) :P
So i need a product that gets rid of my frizz and that gives my curls a good shape and body.

BED HEAD: Foxy Curls
What's it supposed to do? It is supposed to control your curls and fight the frizz. To define and shine!
Directions? Smooth through towel dried hair.
My Verdict? I love this product! It gives me the wavy beach hair i've been longing for. It does exactly what it says it's meant to do. Straight away it began to control my curls and completely got rid of my frizz..(YAY!)
Another bonus is that it smells sooooo good; it smells like sweeties! yum! The only disadvantage about this product is that they don't sell it in any stores like Boots :( You can only purchase it from professional salons. 
Price? £15
Score? 5/5

 Hope this helps anyone else with the same problem as me :)

Sweet 16! ♥



I am now officially 16 everyone! WOO. So it was my 'Sweet Sixteen' on Saturday 23rd July :) I have to say it was definitely a wicked birthday! My cousins came round midday for a big birthday brunch, which was super nice. My parents surprised me with 2 tickets to see The Phantom Of The Opera in theater in the evening. The Phantom of the Opera was amazing! Just soo incredible, i had to stop myself from singing along haha.
The next day i had my friends, Lucy, Stella, Claire and Aneesah round for a little gathering. My friends made me some of the BEST cards everr!! And i got some lovely presents! We played loads of games and ordered some pizza..yum :)
I love having my birthday in the Summer because it always means i get such lovely stuff, whether it be clothes, bags or jewellery, which i can then take on holiday with me.

Overall it was such an INCREDIBLE birthday! I just want to say thank you to all my family and friends who put such amazing effort on birthday 

Much Love C xx
