festive fashion and glitzy glamour

Christmas is nearly here!

This week has been so busy again I feel that it’s non stop! Been all over and I think that’s why iv caught that winter cold everyone has!

The start of the week I was heading off for castings at my agency and its busy busy all go, im currently in the process of building my book up again as I have a new hair colour so it means all my blonde pictures are going to the back! Growing my hair back out to! So its Moroccan hair oil all the way!

Had a lot of work on this week which is really good on the run up to Christmas as have lots of presents to get! Stuarts being awkward as always saying he doesn’t want anything, and if he keeps this up he won’t be getting anything! I love Christmas, we have put up our decorations and tree in our apartment and hung our stockings up although we dont have a fireplace! All very festive even have a bottle of baileys in!

On the evening I had a job hostessing at some united players birthday party, a much upstaged glamorous event, I couldn’t wait to be back home! The scene is long gone for me!I just kept  thinking im being paid to be here!

The next day I was definitely in need of some pampering so I headed to Spa 303 at the Hilton in Manchester, as I was receiving some complimentary treatments for a shoot we had done previously with them, the staff are all so lovely! I took along my friend/pr agent Laura to have a facial with me! Was so relaxing and made my skin glowing! Just what I needed!

Shortly after me and Stuart had to get across to the triangle to meet a few of the contestants that were in the running for a contract for Boss our agency, they were all so lovely and just wanted to ask us questions about the industry and Boss. They were rehearsing for the event on Thursday, some of the models were as young as 14!it was then press call time and we were greeted by the lovely Dianne Bourne to give a short interview and to do some quick pictures for the MEN, I also want to thank SOINFASHION for the lovely dresses they provided me with, I choose a leather dress for the pictures, bit rocky then teamed them with some patent heels had to wear tights as didn’t think I could brave the cold.

The next day I was shooting with the gorgeous Amy Finnemore for Nadine Merabis look book, got to wear loads of beautiful dresses and had the glorious pleasure of Carl Sukonik shooting us! Was a quite turn around as the look book had to be ready for the next day for Nadine’s launch of her new show room! Love that girl!

The launch was a lovely event Nadine dresses a lot of celebrities so the room was filled with famous faces, champagne and canapés and I wondered around in merabi bespoke creation! Also got my sister in on it to! Was a fabulous night and ended up in chichettis for a well earned dinner!felt a tad overdressed but who cares!

The work carries on, today was the Manchester loves Fashion event and was the day for the aspiring models to be chosen! There was a lot of strong competition, but was very happy with Boss's choice as it’s exactly who me and Stuart would have picked! We were introduced on stage and had a quick interview on how we were doing and our upcoming jobs, we don’t half chat on...I would complain if I wasn’t busy! We then went on too give our cheesy smiles to the cameras and got to join our bookers for the final decision.

We then went on to the after party for the jingle bell ball as were unable to make both events! Was a lovely atmosphere bit gutted we missed the acts!

Next day was the beautiful Laura from Vital PR baby shower not only is she our PR guru also now a good friend, unlike any ordinary baby shower it was held in the beautiful boutique light hotel in a penthouse apartment! all of her clients were there so all had a good catch up Laura looked gorgeous and blooming with beauty and amongst the guests were Caroline Poole who has the most amazing voice and wish her all the luck in the future she missed out at the judges houses but know she will do very well, Goldie also from her series was there and god her figure is amazing! The beauty Kirsty Porter was also there she’s such a little talented doll and always looks bang on trend she’s so quirky and love all of her outfits! A few other girls from the soaps also attended, me and Stuart always feel so welcome so a massive thanks to you all! I had two dates that night Stuart Pilkington and Armand Beasley NO1 makeup artist! Me and Armand tried to keep as far away as we could from the wispas, scones jam and clotted cream, strawberry bon bons, chocolate cake, carrot cake and the list continues! I was shooting in the morning so I stuck to sushi, Stuart personal trains Armand so think he was trying to behave in front of him hahaah

This week im LOVING the front cover of Harper Bazaar, that is all!

As I was at few parties this week I needed to make sure I looked in the Christmas spirit im not always so girly so thought id try something different so found a gorgeous sequined dress from zara covered in gold embellishment perfect for Christmas parties and was only 39.99 love a bargain!And as per usual had to add a signature hat!grey bowler this week!Dosent my friend look like Khloe Kardashian, although her name is Kelly!

I also dug out my Armani fluid sheer #2  liquid highlighter when rooting through my humongous case of make up and remembered how much I love it its a bit pricey at £ 33 but it just adds a gorgeous shimmer to your cheeks and catches the light on your cheekbones! With this i also add a bit of MACS mineralize powder, soft and gentle to give a more exagerrated colour, making your cheekbones really stand out!

Also this week im loving Nars Monoi body glow goes gorgeous on your body and is all natural oils so amazing for your skin, it gives you a beautiful glisten and you don’t need to use a lot it costs around £40 but is deff worth if you want gorgeous pins making then appear more slender and sexy, you can also apply it all over so make your collar bones stand out with a few drops to also has a gorgeous scent!

Iv also found myself in topshop buying some mittens to match my burgundy hat I bought a matching pair to go with my fur coat also,  they are beyond cute and have a fur rim and they were so cheap only £10 from topshop think they have a cut all there prices on knitwear! Love being wrapped up at Christmas!

Anyway I think iv gone on far too much, now in the middle of another hectic week which ill update you on soon all very exciting!

Lots of Love
