Christmas Gift Guide: Boyfriend Addition

So I absolutely love to buy Christmas presents for everyone and my boyfriend is definitely no exception! He is a nerd, is in school to become a doctor and he loves video games so if your fella sounds anything like this this gift guide should help you out rightly if you don't know what to buy him this year!
If he's a gamer the first thing you can't go wrong with is a gaming chair, if he's anything like mine he spends hours playing video games and ends up with pretty bad back pain so the solution to this is a super comfortable chair! I would absolutely love to buy one for my boyfriend this year but funds are tight so won't be able to! But I can recommend one to you that I think is just lovely!

This is the Dxracer Racing Gaming Chair available on www.dxracer-europe.com for €279! It has a tall wide backrest which would be perfect for optimal back support and has 8 different settings on the arm rest to suit any game. Believe me your boyfriend will love you a hella lot if you surprise him with one of these Christmas morning!
The next gift is another gaming one and it is pretty self explanatory, if he plays League Of Legends then why not buy him an RP card in your local GAME STOP they range from 10-50€ so they are perfect if you're on a budget! For all you girls who don't game with your guys its pretty much fake money for stuff in the game (you're welcome).
I'll just throw in one more gaming item cause lets face it it's all they want anyways! The newest and most wanted game out at the moment is Fallout 4! Now most men already have this so maybe check with him first and if not it makes a perfect gift if you want plenty of alone time next year! You can pick up Fallout at any store around the county that sells games and online too for around €50-€70 depending on where you get it.

So I'm sure you've had enough gamer talk at this stage so I'm going to go into some other stuff your boyfriend might like this Christmas if he's not massively into games! I love Jack & Jones for men's clothes so I've had a good browse on their website and picked out some things I think would be just lovely on all your fellas! I love this jacket for €49.95 it's super stylish and will keep him warm and toasty for the rest of our lovely winter in Ireland!
Personally I don't know if my boyfriend would wear this next item but I think it would be super sexy on him so why not! This cardigan is the same price as the jacket and is just as stylish and warm for the winter months another perfect buy! And lastly I found some shoes that I love and for €79.95 they won't break your poor little piggy bank this Christmas
either! They also do some really nice underwear if you're in a saucier mood this year that I think he'll like more than anything else when he knows your thinking about his nether region! Anyways I'm definitely getting off topic now and sure listen if all else fails you can never ever go wrong with a selection box, just enjoy your Christmas and those undies of course....oh god just stop! Love you all for stopping by and please come back tomorrow if I haven't totally ruined your Christmas innocence!

The Return of The 90s: Part 2! FASHION!


In my opinion thequeen of 90s fashion is Sarah Jessica Parker, Parker has always been a high fashion socialite when it came to outfit choices so it's vital to look at her looks before we decide on how we want to recreate it now.I have been watching Sex and the City from a very young age and remember always being fascinated with the extravagant outfits and amazing shoes Carrie would own! I have put in some of my personal favourites for your personal fashion needs, you're welcome!

So at this point you're probably like yeah that's great but how to I become Carrie, well fear no more cause here are some of the ultimate Carrie inspired clothes available at the moment!
So personally I am absolutely in love with this dress and I really believe a modern day Carrie would ware this as it does have a 90s feel! Personally I would go with different shoes but I'll be sure to show you how I wore it after I do cause yes I have bought it!! It's €215 in Coast which I understand is a little steep but for a special Christmas occasion it will be perfect!And for an everyday Carrie inspired look I have found the perfect piece in none other than Topshop for a reduced cost and everything! How good am I too you? This gorgeous faux fur screams Carrie and the 90's in a major way and for €89 it won't completely break your Christmas budget!
 

Hope you guys enjoyed this post and you come back for more! It means so much!

The Return of The 90s!

Whether we like it or not the trends that ruled the 90s are now back in full swing and to be honest I'm loving it. From runway to penny's to every make-up company you can possibly think of, everyone is getting their scrunchy and brown lippy out and I'm here to show you how to rock it without looking like a "Clueless" wannabe..!


Iconic 90s make-up consisted of strong black liner, a very matte face and brown lippy of course which today are things we all are seriously lusting after once again. Here are just some of the products I would recommend to get you started:


I must say for €4.99 Rimmel's Soft Khol Kajal Eye Pencil is an absolute must have for every 90s chick. For such an affordable price this eye pencil has great pigment and lasting power. And to really make your eyes pop or look a little like black holes....The Maybelline Great Lash Mascara at only €7.49 was an absolute cult classic in the 90s and there's a reason it's still around now!

Dewy looks were not a thing of the 90s and having a shiny face was never something I lusted after anyway so I'm glad to see that matt looks are coming back with a bang. And for the ultimate powdered face I recommend Max Factor Creme Puff Pressed Powder €6.99, I guarantee you've all seen it in your mother or stylish aunts makeup bag and that's because yet again it was a major cult classic in the 90s that is still widely loved by some of the best make up artists around today.


And lastly is the most important make up item in bringing back your 90s flare, the brown lip. Once again when it came to the brown lip it had to be matt and if you go to anywhere that sells make up today you will be able to find an array of matt brown lipsticks and lipliners! Cause lip liners also made a huge comeback in case you were wondering! But I will recommend two of my absolute fav's for the fun of it! The lipstick is MDM's Flow Lipstick in Bossy for €16.32 which you can purchase on nastygal.com ( my favourite website) and the liner is The body shops Beech lip liner.

If you need any more inspiration for your 90s make up Miss Kylie Jenner normally has it to a T in my opinion like everything else in her fabulous life! Also please come back tomorrow when I tell you what glorious outfit to pair with your now stunning 90s make up look!
