eighteen

Friday, 22 February 2013


It was my eighteenth birthday a couple of weeks ago and I am now officially an adult... I can drink and vote and gamble and even get a commercial pilot's licence apparently.

I went out the day after my birthday for my first legal drink, wearing my Missguided deep green, cut-out baby doll dress. I paired it with a spiked Republic necklace (an essential for personal safety in town on a Friday night!) and my Primark studded clutch bag, which literally holds everything! Bare legs were an essential and paired with my Lush Charlotte Island leg tint I wasn't quite as starkly pale as I appear in these photos, even if I was inordinately cold... brrrr. My lashes of choice were Ardell Demi Wispies; a favourite in the blogosphere and fast becoming my go-to lashes. They are uber natural and fluttery... and most of all easy to put on. No more spider lashes all over the face for me! Those, paired with my Laura Mercier Artist's Palette and MAC's Creme Cup lipstick made up my newly adult face. 

My main present from my family was a trip to New York with my sister, who is 21 this weekend... Happy Birthday Sophieee! I got back on Monday so watch out for an upcoming post dedicated to my travels, and I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
