Music Magic

Hello party people!

I love listening to music, and I am rarely seen without my ipod. The great thing about music is that there is a different kind of artist or genre for every mood you may possibly have. It can give you confidence when you could use a bit more, it will brighten up the most dreary of days, and it gives you that extra boost and motivation to power through the day. Everyone has their own specific type of music that they love listening to at various moments so I thought I'd share some of mine with you!!

 

 

When I'm feeling sad and blue:

I know that people say you should listen to upbeat music when you're sad to lift you out of your funk, but that only makes me what to throw my ipod at the wall and curse every happy person in the world. I like to listen to some more smooth or easy listening to music or Broadway tunes.

 

 

Anything by Paloma Faith is freakin amazing. her soulful voice is full of so much emotion both positive and negative, and it so rare to find such a raw and natural talent. Paloma gets me through some pretty rough moments, which I may not have been over to overcome as easily. I also mentioned another Paloma Faith song which is one of my most favourite song in my first blog here.

 

What Happened?

Looking back at my grandparents photos from the 1940's and 1950's I always feel a sense of pride in how confident everyone looked. They dressed like they had self respect for themselves and for others. We now live in an era where we think that beautiful is hardly wearing any clothes at all and covering our natural beauty with fake tans. I wish that we could go back to the time where  women and men dressed liked they had a purpose and could achieve anything.

Urban Decay Naked Basics Palette Review

Every girl needs at least one palette of nude or naked colours, or in my case loads. I'm not very risky when it comes to bold colourful eyeshadow, I prefer to stick with the warm brown and skin tones. So my draws are filled with various neutral toned eye shadow. Which is why this palette is perfect for everyday going about use!

 

This palette contains six matte shadows (although they do have a little added shimmer). It compliments the Naked and Naked 2 palettes perfectly. The packaging of this is nice and sleek like the previous palettes however it is small enough to fit in your purse which is an added bonus!
