BestSeller AW Fashion Festival

On thursday I had the pleasure of going to the Bestseller AW15 Fashion Festival Press preview. The festival was held in the Chocolate Factory located on Kings Inn Street,Dublin. I had never been there before and it is such a cool venue. There is an industrial/raw feel to it and it's so intimate, I loved it.

Daniella Moyles hosted the event and she looked absolutely stunning. She wore a beautiful dress from the new Lily-Allen collection for Vero Moda.

On the night we were treated to a preview of the clothing that will soon be in these shops.

People could also get their illustration drawn by Conor Merriman, there was a nail bar, musical performances and we also received a fab goodie bag. I need to mention the music because no fashion show is complete without some tunes and it was on point!!

Also dotted around the venue where clothing rails from the various brands. They displayed new and current stock. It felt like a small fashion village, a lovely touch and visually it looked great.

The clothing shown was gorgeous and I wanted almost everything I saw (not good for the purse). The overall collection is casual,cosy, glam, sassy, elegant, sexy and flirty. Featuring suede, fringing, leather,denim,knit,faux fur. There are loads of transitional pieces to carry you through. For the Men, the clothing coming is preppy, smart, casual with added street style and plenty of denim.

What I love about these brands is that they are affordable but the quality and finish is high end. I have shopped in Vero Moda and Vila for years they are definitely my go to shops.

Flormar Revolution Lipstick In Burgundy Mission

These are the three berry colours available I was delighted to receive a sample of the Revolution lipstick in burgundy mission, along with the lip liner to match. These were Kindly sent from RDC Communications . Flormar was launched this year in Ireland and it has proven to be a huge success and a popular choice for those who want affordability and quality. I tested this lipstick out over Christmas, as I am trying to be more adventurous and try out stronger colours, as I normally tend to stick with nude tones. This lipstick is a rich berry colour with blue undertones, having these undertones makes your teeth appear whiter. "Revolution is Flormar premium lipstick containing shea butter, cocoa, olives, a super pigment and easy 8 hr staying power" . Swatch of lipstick and liner Application Tips: Before application ensure your lips are in good condition especially in this harsh weather. Exfoliate to remove any dry skin and apply vase

Finally Contouring is getting the push

Anyone else as happy as me to see that contouring is not as popular in the makeup world. I personally could never get used to it. I think it looks amazing in photographers or on a night out when done right. If you prefer a more heavy look. I believe strobing has been around before it was just called highlighting then. So do not be confused!!! For me I prefer a more natural look when it comes to makeup. The whole idea with strobing is that you can see the skin and it is not heavily covered up. I have been using the Mac Strobe Cream for a few months now. You can also strobe with powder. Mary-Loumanizer by the Balm Mac Soft and Gentle What I like about Mac Strobe? It makes the skin look radiant,fresh and healthy (for tired Mammies like me it's a must) It's easily applied. It's a no fuss product, there is no messing with it. It can be worn alone or added after foundation is applied. With some blush you are good to go. Lo
