Valentines Day!!!

Valentines Wish List by kate_about_town featuring Hermes bags

Since I recieved my first red rose at the age of 13 I have always loved valentines day, so thanks to the boy who lived 6 houses away! Admittedly it is much more enjoyable when you know someone loves you, but it is never a given that he is going to remember to buy a present! So this year I have started dropping big hints that I wish to be romanced and in return I am taking him out for dinner and to the theatre on Saturday evening. I have booked tickets for the country wife, which is a lewd comedy that was once banned for its sexual explicitness. It is based in 1870s Lodon reflect on the aristocratic life style. I shall let you all know if it is any good or not.



In return I am hoping for a pocket watch necklace like this:

Beautiful Things!

Lace by kate_about_town featuring Valentino shoes

Today I went shopping something which on its own makes me happy but today I was overly excited becase I went to House of Fraser to test out the new Dior makeup range, better late than never! I wasn't to sure whether or not to purchase the illuminating powder as well as the eyeshadow quad so I have gone away overnight to have a think about it. Don't get me wrong the products where lovely, very shimmerie and girly and so well pigmented, I did love them a lot.



But I wasn't sure how often I would use the illuminating powder, it was a little to illuminating for my skin tone (is there such a thing?) but the compact and the detailing in how the powder is pressed is so pretty, it would make a statement if I only ever used it as a mirror to apply my makeup!



I think I am sold.... I shall have to go back to buy them tomorrow!



Anyway I have taken it as my inspiration to put a little something together!
