YouTube: Wedding Guest Look

I did another tutorial on YouTube for a 'wedding guest look'. I did one that was quite specific as it's exactly what I had worn the week before at my friends wedding. I needed makeup that didn't take too long but lasted all day and matched my outfit. 

I hope you enjoy the tutorial!

A few new posts will be up on here very soon!

And here's to 2014! [Haul]

I bought a few things in December, needed a few pieces of makeup for occasions and such, things were  running out and it was time to restock and I treated myself a little too... So here is a little round up of things I bought and received before the new year! Including a couple of Christmas 'non-makeup things'.

Okay so this may not count entirely but I went to the hairdressers before Christmas and got my hair cut and coloured. I've started treating myself to getting it done at the hairdressers and although I love it, it is expensive so i'm not sure for how long this can continue! I love the colour of my hair now though!

Golden Girl

Recently I have been wearing a lot of golden eye makeup - I thought I would show you two looks that I have done this week. It's definitely my go-to colour at the moment for when I am going out in the evening or going somewhere special in the daytime.

 

Selena Gomez Look - (from a Tanya Burr Tutorial) Plus, I'm blogging everyday this week!

I have finally finished exams (and my first year of Uni!) So I have decided that this week I am blogging EVERYDAY! So each day from today (Sunday 1st) until Sunday 9th there will be a new blog post up! I am doing 8 days instead of 7, I am aware that this is more than a week but I have made it my mission to blog everyday this week, plus I always blog on Sundays so I'm just going to do it my way! 

So to kick start my week of blogging everyday I have decided to show you a look that I did the other day. I absolutely love Tanya Burr and her blog/youtube/twitter/instagram and I definitely should have been revising but instead it got to about 10pm and I was fed up so I watched her tutorial on Selena Gomez's make-up in the Come & Get It music video. After I watched the first minute or so I decided it was definitely very important that I tried to recreate it myself, without delay! So I grabbed my make-up and proceeded to create this:

I apologize for the lighting, obviously by doing this at 10/11pm there was no natural light and my ensuite light is a bit yellow. I don't think it looks too far off how it looked though ;) - collage created on Fotor

Pearls & Bows is starting again under the new name of Emilia Grace :)

Over the past few years I have grown a lot, I think it was 2010 when I started this blog and I was 16 turning 17. Next Saturday I turn 20. I was finishing secondary school then and now I am finishing my first year of University. I did my A-Levels and had a gap year in that time and so much has changed. I have learnt a lot about myself, about beauty, make-up and fashion in that time. That is why today I have decided to start this blog over, I have deleted my old posts so that it is a fresh start, this year and the next few are going to be exciting and new. I am going to set myself a challenge and that is to blog at least once a week, it may not sound like much but if that goes well I will increase it. Assignments and reading for uni mean that finding the time to blog can be a little tricky!
