BLOGMAS DAY 18 | KEEP ON GOING..

Do you ever feel you've got a little too much on your plate? Yeah, me right now. I'm not usually a very busy person and I manage my time well.. I manage to do everything I need to do and still have plenty of time but at the moment, no minute is spent doing nothing. 

I really don't want to rant too but I can feel this could turn into one. 
At the moment, I have 1368 bloglovin posts to read/comment and I'm intent that I WILL read every one. I haven't even managed to pass my college project today due to not having enough work, and thats down to my busy life at the moment. Luckily it isn't the end of the world and I can be reassessed after Christmas, but I know I'm not going to have ANY time to do anything over Christmas. I'm working every day, seeing family whenever I can then in January I'm off to Norway for a few days.
My parents are away at the moment and I'm not able to use a computer as my boyfriends is a bit rubbish, so the only time I can use a computer is at college (right now!) and I'm obviously not meant to be doing this, I'm meant to be doing college work. AHHH I'M STRESSED.

I wish I could just have a day of doing NOTHING. That would be BLISS.

BLOGMAS DAY 16 | SMOKEY EYE PALETTE

As I mentioned in yesterday's post, I very kindly received the Topshop smokey eye palette as my secret Santa present in 'GOLDEN AURA'. As I received it as a present, I'm not totally sure how much it was but I'm sure it will be online. 
The packaging is lovely as you can see

The colours with flash
Best swatches I could do, sorry!

I can't wait to try this out.. I'm slowly easing myself into eyeshadows, and I haven't 100% got used to wearing them yet. It's such a gorgeous palette so I'm excited!!

Have you got this palette?

BLOGMAS DAY 15 | CHRISTMAS MEAL

As I mentioned in yesterday's post, last night I had my works Christmas meal. It was a less posh version of a dinner dance, and we shared it with another local company. I didn't get a full length picture of me and what I wore but here's a picture of my face (even better!)


I wore my makeup as I usually would but a bit thicker and some lippy!


What I received from my secret Santa. Lucky!! I can't wait to try them! (Would you like a review kind of post?!)

Topshop dress
My dress but on the model on the website. I picked this up because it was reduced in the 30% off party-wear and I had an extra 30% off too so I got it mega cheap! I wore a huge pair of plain black heals and a small black clutch. If I can find a picture I'll post one!!

I had a great night! Feeling slightly delicate today and I must admit, I didn't get out of bed and I defiantly had a huge dominoes! Hehe.

How has your weekend been?

BLOGMAS DAY 14 | MAKEUP

I have my works Christmas meal tonight (post tomorrow..) and I'm at work all day today, so I've gotta finish work at 6, rush to my friends, get ready etc all for half 7.. Impossible?! Never!!
Really quick post with pictures I took this morning whiles getting ready. 

I take about 15 minutes max to do my makeup, can even be quicker! And if I was just going in to town today I probably wouldn't have even done my makeup, it's just because I'm working. 
Its so weird seeing a 'before' and 'after' and I agree with anyone that says makeup works wonders!!

What are you up to tonight?!

BLOGMAS DAY 13 | BLOGGING ON THE GO

It's nearly 11 o'clock and my night has been a drama-filled one to say the least. I really didn't want to go without doing a post but I was so stuck with ideas so I thought I'd just share how I blog 'on the go'. 

I've made it no secret on here that a lot of the blogging I do is when I'm on the bus or at college etc, and I have 4 main (but simple) apps that I use a lot for my blogging on the phone.

I have a folder especially for blogging. 

Blogger- blogger is a must have, although it's very very simple and easy to use (and really doesn't have much else than 'write post' and 'view blog' lol) I use this to write my posts because it's easy to do. 

Bloglovin- although bloglovin frustrates the HELL out of me as you can't comment unless you open the post in Safari, it is good to read posts. Not much else though.

Google- I downloaded google, simply because blogger (the format I use) is run by google and doesn't like to co-operate with Apples' Safari. Very annoying but I prefer the google app!!

Gmail- again, because blogger needed a gmail email to be set up, I set one up and downloaded the app. Everything I have to do with blogging is done through my 'gmail' email address. Keeps everything simple :-)

They are my 4 main apps, but I'm always looking for more to make everything easier for me, but if you have any others to suggest I would love to hear them!

Sorry this post is a bit boring, not feeling 100% myself and I'm knackered!!

What are your favourite blogging apps?!
