OOTD - London/McBusted Sat 26th

The best place in the world = London (for me, anyway)

London is always the place I look forwards to going to. Even if for a short while, I will make myself look super presentable (attempt to). Wear my favourite clothes and attempt to do my makeup to perfection... All for London.

Saturday 26th April, 2014 is no exception.

MCBUSTED

 Around about 10 years ago this year, I went to my first concert and that was BUSTED. When going to see Busted, they had two support acts (some shit band I cannot remember the name of) and MCFLY - this was when McFly were starting out. Busted were much bigger at the time, but after the demise of Busted, McFly have taken over and have stuck together ten years on.

However, for limited time only, McFly have done 'the awesome', collaborated with Busted (who aren't getting back together btw) and made MCBUSTED. (No Charlie, boo you, Charlie.)

Finding out about the news, I jumped on the tickets and attempted to get the best I could... I didn't succeed *weeps and points to very top, far back of the O2 arena* but who cares, this is my (and everyone from the 90's... Who liked them) childhood dream.

Saturday 26th April 

After going for a lovely Zizzi's at O2 (which made me so bloated I looked pregnant) Charlie and myself headed toward the inside area of the O2 to find our seats. We were very high up and actually finding the seats were something I found difficult - but alas, we found them YAYYY. 

McBusted didn't actually come on until sometime after 9pm, but they did have a support act (three five year old looking teenagers). Personally, they weren't my cup of tea, but hey-ho! They got to play at the O2 and that's a pretty big achievement - well done, kids!

The show started with a 'back to the future' kind've theme up on the screens, which was awesomely done, may I add. Including the theme music that was used in the film and the famous 'back to the future car - the DeLorean'. It showed the break up of Busted and a race for James and Matt to go "back to the future" to make it to the McBusted show in time. 

As the car went 80mph and disappeared, a loud bang and fire appeared on the stage and the beloved car slowly dropped down to the stage, where both Matt and James climbed out. as they walk toward the main part of the stage, more banging and fire appeared as the McFly crew jumped out from underneath the stage.

Overall, the gig was amazing and the music and atmosphere was just as good as I remembered it being when I was eight years old. I've seen McFly four times now and I never thought I'd be seeing Busted for a second. 

I've been to a crazy amount of gigs in my time and have EASILY seen over 100 different acts, and I must say, McBusted are easily in the top 3.

For the Love of Jumpsuits

Being small is something that I once thought was a height not suited for a jumpsuit (in personal experience in the past and from seeing them on other people). However, recently, I have developed a love for them and have been trying so hard to find one that would actually suit me and not make me look much smaller than I already am.

As fashion constantly develops, so do opinions, and my opinion is that Jumpsuits actually do suit smaller people as well as the taller ones.

So, taking in mind the love that I have developed for jumpsuits, I thought I'd do a jumpsuit appreciation post.

March Favourites

Alas, March has been and gone and we are now in April. So far I'd say the days have been going very fast... After all we are into the fourth month of the year, and before we know it, Christmas ads will be back on our TV's (in august no doubt - darn you, early Christmas ads).

Now that the full month of March has passed, I thought I'd write a post on my March Favourites.

1. TOPSHOP - Gingham Print Joni Jeans
I can't stop wearing these jeans. I feel like I should stop wearing them so much incase people think I don't wash my clothes - I do btw. Despite the fact that they are 'skinny jeans' they're super comfy and they don't bunch up on the back of the legs. The print is lighter than I thought (online they look black) they're actually a faded black look, but they still look fab on.

2. WITCH STICK
I'm totally fed up with the red marks that wont fade on my face with additional spots coming along to join that and leave behind more redness, because of this, I have gone super crazy with face masks, washes and my beloved Witch Stick. About twice a day - morning and night, I apply the Witch Stick to areas that either have redness or areas that I can feel spots developing. I have definitely noticed a difference in my skin and the redness seems to be fading and any spots that are trying to make their way to surface haven't succeeded.

3. LUSH - Angels on Bare Skin
For the past month, I have been struggling with getting rid of the left over redness from spots and so I decided to go to the best place for skin care (in my opinion) and that is LUSH. I told one of the ladies that worked there my problem and she suggested 'Angels on Bare Skin', which is a face wash. Since then I have been using it every day, moisturising my face after, and it has definitely made a difference and it's only been 5 days. The redness seems reduced and barely visible. Ofc, along side this I have been using my beloved 'Witch Stick'.

4. MAC - Lady Danger Lipstick
I have had this lipstick for a long time now and it's still going strong. This month I've had more of an obsession with it in comparison to other months. What I love about this colour is that it goes with pretty much any outfit that I create, however, the downside of this lipstick is that you need to make sure that your lips are perfect before applying - if not, the lipstick dries out a lot quicker than usual. Other than that, it's a fab colour that gets many compliments and "omg what lipstick is that?"

5. CHANEL - Coco Mademoiselle
This perfume is lushhhh. It smells great and has a mature scent to it (if that makes sense). The smell really does last a long time and the look of the bottle is perfection. There isn't really much to say about this perfume other than it smells great and I wear it all the time. The price for this is quite expensive, especially for the larger bottle - but it lasts a very long time and the smell makes the price worth it.

6. NEWLOOK - Pug Slippers
No doubt, the best slippers of all time. I was browsing the Newlook site when I came across these super cute slippers and I thought that I just had to buy them. Once I collected them and saw the slippers, the size amazed me... They were a lot bigger than I thought, but once I put them on my feet, it was like I was standing on a cloud. They're super comfy and take up the whole of your feet. They do make a lot of squeaky noises when you're waking on any flooring that isn't carpet, but other than that, they're super great. Even Marley (my Puggle) loves them.
