#SBBC Day 13, A Craft Project
Good morning,
I'm over the worst of the flu. It seriously took me 3 weeks. But I'm here, I'm alive bla bla bla
As I'm not an artsy fartsy kind of person who knocks up little craft projects at the weekend I thought I would find this post really difficult to write. Then I thought, ok, what have I ever created, maybe a college assignment or something. Eureka! My thesis, I 'crafted' that so to speak and it is something I am very proud of. So I started writing a post about my thesis but something was missing.
Nah. I decided... it just wasn't good enough....something else I've created, something really really special. Bang!
What could be more special then the fact that I have 'crafted' one of the most beautiful little people in this world.
So Saian, SBBC Day 13, A craft project, goes to you.

#SBBC Day 10, Beauty Pet Peeves
Day 10 options for #SBBC were Beauty pet peeves and Favorite item of clothing. Luckily, there are not many things that annoy me, beauty wise. Well, not enough to write a blog post about anyway. When I think of it, the only things I can actually think of is when the bristles of my foundation brush come off on my face. It's like little spider legs...euh, not such a nice thought. The other thing is when you open an eye shadow pallet to find that some of the individual shadows are smashed or broken.... Disaster!
Oh one more thing...This is not a beauty problem but is related to a beauty product. It is when I find my 6 year old dusting down the tables with my makeup brushes.
OK OK, Scrap what I said about not having enough things to rite about in the pet peeves area, the longer I spend writing, the more that come to mind.
It does my head in when people wear lipstick outside of their lips, it looks ridiculous!
EXHIBIT A:
I also think it looks terrible when people who have otherwise perfect makeup, go way to far with the highlighter/translucent powder.
EXHIBIT B:
EXHIBIT C:
I'm perfect of course, no bronze lines, no questionable make up looks...yeh right..
What are your beauty pet peeves?

#SBBC Day 9, How to incorporate color into your look
What I should have done to add a little colour into my look was to try one of the following:
- A colourful handbag
- Nice earrings
- A bright watch
- Shoes with a wow factor
- Through hair colour or lipstick
- Nail varnish or design which compliments and makes my outfit more vibrant
- I normally try to grab a colourful scarf as I run out the door.
I'd love some tips, What do you guys do to bring more colour into your wardrobe?
