I have so much love for minimal make-up. Make-up is intended to enhance our natural features, not cover them up, too many people make that mistake and lose themselves in the process. Less is more ladies.

The Manchester edition of the Aussome Volume Tribe party was held in the Bluu basement bar on Thursday 22nd July
Luckily I only live about 5 minutes from the venue, so after finishing work, off I toddled with Katie (my next door neighbour) to be pampered and preened. The lovely girls from 1000 heads and Bluu bar had done an amazing job of setting up the venue, providing us with lots of lovely champagne, cocktails and nibbles.
Zara and Amber Rose, the hair gurus of the night showed us all how to get the best volume with heated rollers using Jennifer as a model.

Once the demonstration was complete, Zara and Amber Rose went on to give everyone their very own 60s style hair do and lots of tips and tricks as to how they could recreate the look at home.


The night was rounded up with lots more cocktails and a good old sing along. Karaoke is something I’d never normally do, but there I was at the front not just once, but twice giving those vocal cords a bit of an exercise.


A fab night was had by all of the girls and it was great to see some old and new faces. Big thanks go out to Aussie and the lovely girls, Emma, Lisa and Nic from 1000 heads. See you soon ladies.

What a cool idea - I also love the idea of leaving a bunch of disposable cameras on everyone’s tables and getting them to take photos throughout the day.
Impressing old people is as easy as:
The finished result is really awesome. A ton of candid photos from throughout the weekend from a lot of different perspectives. I am sure the professional photos will come out great, but they won’t capture the VIBE, which in my opinion is just as important in remembering the night(s).
1) Setup a Tumblr.
2) Print out business cards with instructions on how to send picture messages to the tumblr.
3) Handout said business cards at the beginning of the wedding (works for all events).
4) Help Aunty save the tumblr email address as a contact in her phone.
Love everything here - all from Topshop I believe.
These two photos by the talented Hanneli go to show that you can dress simple and still look chic, don’t you think having great confidence is the key here? Too often I end up buying items that aren’t simple enough and therefore I just don’t get the wear out of them, I need to take a leaf out of these ladies’ books.

I love the toughness of all the rings, I don’t really wear rings (apart from my engagement ring) but I think I shall have to invest.

Love this living room. I currently live in an apartment which I rent and therefore can’t really do much to it.
This is what I’d like the living room to look like when I actually buy a place—love all the photos on the wall.
