holiday nature

Helloooo! Sorry I've been away, I was on holiday (California!) until last week and since then I've either still jet lagged somehow or I'm poorly. Someone needs to kick my arse into shape!

Here is my last set of photos from my short holiday in somerset, showing some scenes from a beautiful work I took. And first my final holiday face:

 

Wearing:

Face: some nameless pressed powder, Illamasqua Sophie blusher

Eyes: Mac eyebrow pencil in Fling on brows, various colours from MUA Heaven and Earth palette, Illamasqua Abyss and Alchemy liquid ink eyeliners.

Lips: Illamasqua Opulent lip gloss

  

Tonnes of photos of waterfalls and greenery below the cut.

 Hey everyone, it's time for part two of my Somerset holiday adventure! But first a face:

 Here's a look I made on my holiday, not the most exciting but I thought it was quite pretty and my Mum said I looked a bit like Kate Bush in the photos so I thought I'd share :)

 

Wearing:

Face: Illamasqua Skin Base foundation in 02, some unnamed No 7 pressed powder, Darling Girl Sweet Cheeks cream blush in Just Bitten

Eyes: I made the eyeshadows, Illamasqua Precision Ink eyeliner in Abyss, Collection 2000 glitter eyeliner in Rock Chick

Lips: Mac Kanga-Rouge, Illamasqua Opulent

I thought I'd share some photos from my family holiday to Somerset, first up is our trip to Wookey Hole, home of the famous caves and witch. There's tonnes of pics so I've put them under the cut :)

Holidaaaayyy! Celebraaate!!

So in October I'm going on holiday for the first time in 3 years! Not only that but I'm going to California! 

Claire and I are going for a week and staying in Anaheim so we're central to Disneyland. We're huge Disney lovers and so far the holidays we've taken together have been to DisneyWorld in Florida and Disneyand Paris (we are super cool and not at all lame and Disney obsessed like you think). We're also going to visit Hollywood and a mall somewhere.

Neither of us have been there before and are very excited!

But.... Even though we are going in October it's going to be very hot and sunny. And I don't cope too well in the heat! (I'm HATING the weather here in London at the moment). And it's been so long since I've been on holiday somewhere hot I've forgotten what I need to take! (other than a sunhat and sunblock!)

So that's where you guys come in! What do I need to take with me? Has anyone been to California/live there and know of anything we should be doing? Does anyone know where I can get an awesome looking backpack (or other travel suitable bag) before I go? What/how much makeup can I take on the plane? Any tips to help me cope with the heat? Anyone know any comfortable but stylist/pretty shoes?

And where I can find Archie comics when I get there? I love me some Jughead.

Oh and what should I do with my hair? I feel like I should bleach it, because California just brings blonde hair to mind and I had always planned to go back to blonde. However everyone keeps telling me how great I look with black hair.

 Any tips would be really helpful! Help me with my life! :P
