A busy Saturday and an OOTD

Saturday ended up being quite a busy day for me, I was planning on having a quite one but instead ended up leaving mine at 1.30pm and not getting back until 2.45am! It was also a day of lots of food, I was feeling quite uncomfortable by the end of the day

I met a friend for a drink at the Slug and Lettuce in Marlow and we had a bit of lunch as neither of us had had any yet. I had wanted a fish finger sandwich but they were all out of fish fingers so went for a steak and cheese with chips and coleslaw instead, it was quite tasty, but I think I'd have still liked the fish finger one more.

I then met another friend in High Wycombe and helped her look for a dress for a Hen Weekend she is going on next week. We had dinner at Noodle Nation and I had chicken, king prawn and shitake mushrooms in oyster sauce with steamed rice, plus a few of my friends prawn crackers.

We then went to the cinema and saw Bad teacher, I really liked it. It is a great film if you work with children as you can relate to a lot of what is going on. Although I hope that I do not end up with the teaching styles that Cameron Diaz portrays through out the film. I particularly liked the performances of the support cast of Lucy Punch and Phyllis Smith.

I thought that Miss Diaz was actually looking a bit, dare I say it, old, facially...I feel bad saying that but I did! However, give me her legs any day! Seriously...why can I not look this good when washing a car...

The final part of my day involved going to my friend Naidas house, we were meeting some friends a bit later on for some drinks and we got ready at hers. It wasn't a big night so I wore what I'd been wearing all day but with some wedges instead of flats and re-did the make up. I'd left my make up behind and so had the rather lovely opportunity to use all of Naidas. She has a really quite impressive collection of Mac and Chanel products and I was very excited to use them. In return I did her hair for her. I took some pictures of both of us...sorry the quality is not great, the lighting was too low and so they are not very clear, but hopefully you get the idea.

I haven't worn a foundation in ages and when I first put this on I felt it was a bit heavy just because I normally only use a tinted moisturiser. However once it was on it felt really light and my skin felt lovely, I didn't feel at all 'caked' in make up. 

I have been wanting to get my hands on Macs Impassioned for a while, but I can't justify the cost at the moment, so I was very happy to be able to use Naidas, such a lovely bright colour and the lipstick itself was very impressive, not at all drying and it had very good wear, I only reapplied twice throughout the whole night and I still had a slight stain when I took my make up off!

I may have to do my make up at Naidas again but take better photos so that you can really see how it looks. A handy excuse to use all those lovely products again! 

Hope you all had good weekends
