A quiet weekend.

Blogging wise, i've been quiet this weekend due to working all day yesterday and being at my sisters today, so I apologise.  I mentioned on Friday I was going shopping as it was pay day and I couldn't have been more disappointed by my lack of purchases.  

It all began well, I went into HMV and picked up these two DVDs which were 2 for £10 or £7 each.  

It then went downhill from there on in.  I saw a million and one things in Topshop I wanted to put in my wardrobe but I can't always justify the prices that just seem to be forever increasing.  

I then went on to MAC and purchased my first Lipglass.  

£12.50

This colour is not dissimilar from the NARS lipgloss I had my eyes on, but at five pounds cheaper, I decided to go with MAC.  I really like the colour against my skin tone and also they smell really lovely, they are just a tad too sticky for my liking.  I will probably end up wearing this shade to death as it is just so lovely.  I'll try and do a face of the day blog post when wearing this.  

I also went to LUSH and purchased the bubblegum lip scrub which everyone has been raving about.  

£4.95

First off, this product smells incredible.  Bearing in mind I have had a cold and I couldn't smell or taste anything, I opened this pot and instantly got a pleasant wiff.  I've used it quite a bit and I really like it.  I'll do a full review on this product in the next week.  

That was it for my appauling shop, I have however just purchased this book from Amazon:

I really can't wait for this to arrive in a few days, I absolutely adore this lady and reckon it's going to be an entertaining read!  

That's all for now, I hope you all had a lovely weekend.  Tell me what you got up to!

Going Gaga for fashion.

Nicola Formichetti wowed the Parisian fashionistas yesterday with his first collection for Thierry Mugler.  In one word, it was fabulous.  The collection was inspired by Nicola's muse, the one and only Lady Gaga, who actually walked the walk herself along with all the other models.  If you didn't see the show you can watch it here, courtesy of TheGiantSheep (not sure why, or even how, sheep are managing to youtube).

Of course, she wasn't there just for Nicola, the track used for the show was a preview of a new song for her new album 'Born This Way'.  She made a statement as always and she looked gorgeous.  Back to the clothes, this has been one of my favourite collections yet.

I'm a sucker for a pronounced shoulder and with a decollete neckline, this is a true 'girl power' statement.  

Sheer chiffon and latex, going for a bondage feel.

Gaga in a leather ensemble.

Cobalt blue dress with chiffon body.  Softer lines on the pronounced shoulders and a high neck. 

One of the more wearable looks from the show, I really love this colour, a soft off yellow.  I'm all for bodycon dresses/skirts so I could see myself in this look.  Plus I LOVE killer heels, look at those bad boys!

It wouldn't be an Autumn/Winter collection without a hint of fur.  Loving the animalistic nature of this outfit.  

Again, this colour is gorgeous and so feminine.  I really love the shoulders, it almost looks to me like armour.

An extremely delicate look from the entire night.  The dress is cut on the bias allowing it to flow gently down the models body.  

Gaga finished the show in a Edwardian inspired hat, corset and maxi skirt. 

I really could show you more as it was a great collection with a terrific amount of potential.  It even made Anna Wintour smile! That hasn't happened since 2004, when McQueen showed his 'They Shoot Horses Don't They' collection.  Nicola Formichetti looks to have a promising future with Mugler.
