For those of you that don't know, I study Graphic Design in Dundee. I've just finished my second year (how scary, it feels like I just started!) and this was one of the projects I did. It was a group project, which was challenging at times, but really enjoyable. As you can see, we had to make a magazine, and we chose to base it on 'the art of print', and this is what we came up with! Let me know what you think of it!
Thanks for reading!

Recently, i've been obsessed with liquid lipsticks. I just love the way they go matte, and last for ages. I don't have to worry about topping up over the night, which is especially useful when i'm on a night out with my girls! A brand that in my opinion is amazing for liquid lipsticks is MUA, and that's what i'm going to review today!

(l-r) Reckless, Kooky, Tranquility

Reckless || A beautiful bright red. Very out there, but also quite classic.

Kooky || I absolutely adore this shade so much. I've been really into dark shades recently, feel so vampy!

Tranquillity || I really wanted to like this, but it was just horrible on me!

I work in makeup, so i'm constantly seeing all the new makeup items come out, and when these came into the MUA stand, I watched them, and at the end of my shift, I had bought them. They are fab.
Honestly, they aren't drying (well for a matte product), they stay on my lips for ages, they don't crack, the packaging is really sleek and pretty. I don't have a bad thing to say about the product!
The purple is my absolute favourite colour, it's perfect for nights out! However, I really don't suit the nude one, it completely washes me out! As i'm sure you can tell by the image!
However, for the price tag of a mere £3, I really can't complain too much! Since taking these photos, I have added a new one to my collection from MUA, and it's called 'Dash'. It's a lovely pink/brown colour, perfect for both daytime and evening wear! In fact, i'll include a photo of me wearing it below. I'm in love.

Dash || A beautiful dark pink.

Seriously, I highly recommend these, I can't rave about them enough! Seriously, if you're near a Superdrug, please, check them out!
Or you can have a look at them here.

Thank you for reading!


Note: I realised I spelt the title wrong in the image *facepalm* I'm an idiot! Sorry about that!

Hello again! A few months ago, I put a post up all about my disposable camera adventures. I decided it was about time for part two! So without any rambling, let's have a look!

Carnaby Street in of course, London. This is an amazing street, so many great photo opportunities!!

Beautiful buildings

I was trying to take a 'candid' photo of my friends Mhairi and Isla walking away, but they both turned around at the last minute!

Again, another fab photo opportunity. I love Covent Garden too.

This photo didn't really come out great, but it's all part of the fun of a disposable camera, eh?

This was taken just after portfolio hand in! We went to a nice little cafe in Dundee and had celebratory food! (l-r Isla, me, Emma)

Also at the cafe, my friends Rachel and Helen, so cuuuuuute.

This is my sister.. I caught her with a towel over her head like that (don't ask) so I took the opportunity to snap a picture!

Me and Caragh, my sister just before we went to my little sisters' dance show (which I ended up having to help at because they were short staffed! I didn't mind though!)

This was a crazy psychedelic installation at the Duncan Of Jordanstone Art school's degree show (where I go to uni)

HAHAHA, I was planning on taking a nice photo of the busy Oxford Street, but this man walked straight into my shot! Ha, sorry stranger!

This was us on the London bridge (l-r Isla, me, Mhairi, Lizzie) as you can see we had just been shopping!

Finally, another shot of London. It was a great trip. I went with my art school, and ugh, I just love London. I'm actually going there again in mid-may because I have to get a visa! (More on that coming hopefully in a future blog post!)

Thanks so much for reading!

I recently finished reading 'Behind Closed Doors', by B.A. Paris.  Right now i'm having this craze of loving psychological thrillers, I can't get enough of them! So when I saw this on Amazon, I knew it was right up my street. Here's what Amazon says about the book:

I love magazines. I love the physical connection between them and the reader, I love the design, the smell, the feel, the content, just everything. As someone who is studying Graphic Design, I am constantly flicking through magazines to find inspiration. A company I recently discovered during one of my class talks was 'Oh Comely'. I instantly fell in love with the style and design of the magazine. Minimalism is my thing, so this is right up my street. As soon as I got home from uni that day I placed an order of some magazines from their website, the arrived quickly, and I was not disappointed.
They came in beautiful packaging, and when I opened the box, I found some little post cards. I also am really into photography and these were completely my style, so they went straight on my wall!
The actual magazines themselves are breathtaking. They look incredible, and the content is so unique. All of the issues have a specific theme, but overall, I think the magazine is a bit of everything. It's described as 'where curious minds don't think alike', and I think it fits perfectly. It really is very satisfying to read, and I always find out amazing unique stories, it's a joy to read.

I really just wanted to share this with you, as I feel like this magazine deserves more recognition! I can't rave about this enough.
If you are interested, you can visit their website here.
