If you haven't already found me over on YouTube, then please do head on over and subscribe to my channel. It'd be much appreciated :-)

Some of my recent vlogs are this one for #vlogchallenge on the topic of 'What's in my fridge?'...



...and this one which is my day to day make-up using bareMinerals and the new bareSkin serum foundation - thank goodness for make-up as my skin is a state right now!!

{#vlogchallenge & Foodies Festival}

Last weekend R & I were in Edinburgh for Foodies Festival at Inverleith Park.

It was perfect timing with the weekly #vlogchallenge, which was themed 'Food'.

So without further ado, here's my vlog. No cats this time, but instead we have a chihuahua!



The Foodies Festival on Saturday was absolutely brilliant. The sun was shining and the atmosphere was fantastic. After demolishing a burger, I proceeded to stuff my face with the best chocolate brownie ever. Seriously, you have to try The Brownie Bar. There seemed to be an issue with queuing to get into the event which wasn't ideal, and the toilet facilities could have been managed better as there wasn't enough space for queues where they were located and the queues were all overlapping so it wasn't clear where to go,  but other than that it was superb. I'll definitely be back next year.

The marketing of this 'threesome' burger appealed to me! I've got such a childish sense of humour!

You must try these... amazing!!

On Saturday the sun was shining...

...but by Sunday it was wet, wet, wet!!

How beautiful is this ombre cake!!

{#VlogChallenge - What's in my bag?}

If you haven't already spotted it, I have a new video up on YouTube for the weekly #vlogchallenge. The theme last week was "What's in my bag?" and here is my contribution:



The lighting is pretty bad, but I didn't have the time or the energy to re-do it.

My bag is from Marks and Spencer, and it's a brown leather cross-body number. I got it in the sale recently using some vouchers ;-)

Do let me know what you think...

{Vlog Challenge - Week 4}

This week we went to see Yellow Valley by Starcatchers at the Glasgow Tramway (@GlasgowTramway) as part of the Culture 2014 programme.

After the show we grabbed a snack at the cafe and relaxed in The Hidden Gardens. It was a fantastic afternoon & we all thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

Check out the vlog for more!

{Vlog - My Everyday Make-Up}

Okay, so I'm slowly getting to grips with iMovie and hopefully you'll notice an improvement in my vlogs from my first one that was extremely amateur! Here's hoping I continue to get better the more I practice!

I thought I'd join in with the #VlogChallenge this week set by Kate over at Wit Wit Woo. The theme is 'beauty/fashion', so I thought I'd share my daily make-up routine and the products I use.

Here we go...



The products I use at the moment are:

MAC Shroom eyeshadow
MAC Satin Taupe eyeshadow
MAC Black Tie eyeshadow
Benefit They're Real mascara
cK one concealer - 100 porcelain
Rimmel Wake Me Up Foundation, Ivory
MAC Select Sheer Pressed Powder, NW20
NARS blusher, Oasis
Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream
cK one lipstick, 500 Liplock

Do let me know what you think! :-)
