November Update!

My husband and I visited Madrid over halloween and into the beginning of November.
We stayed on Gran Via the main shopping street and stayed at The VincciMint hotel http://en.vinccithemint.com which we highly recommend. We enjoyed exploring the city visiting various art galleries and shops, bars and restaurants as you do...I am not going to lie it was a pretty exhausting trip!

Plaza Mayor



Primark on Five Floors!



Retiro Park



Royal Palace of Madrid



My favourite painting of the trip by Artist Robert Delauney, Thyssen Museum.



I couldn't resist this cute little makeup shop!







The highlight of our trip was dinner at the fabulous La Candelo Resto http://www.lacandelaresto.com If you are ever in Madrid you should definitely make a special evening here.  You will be completely "wowed" with the creative food combinations, it was a culinary experience!











Some of the stunning clients I have had the pleasure of doing hair and/or makeup for during November.

June Update!

After a super busy May and first week in June I was certainly ready for a sunshine break! I must admit I relaxed as soon as I arrived in Spain this time, usually it takes me a few days to unwind but I think I was so shattered I just immediately went into the relaxed holiday vibe : )

We had a fabulous holiday in Marbella, Seville and Cordoba it was great to experience different parts of Spain and we loved every minute. See some of my holiday snaps below.

Also see some of the unusual places I have had to set up my kit this month! I was also lucky enough to do make-up for the world pole dancing champion Alessandra Marchetti she was ubertalented, previously a ballerina and gymnast and super lovely to boot.

All set up for weddings and shoots as of late mostly working in bathrooms! 

 Serious Pole dancing complete with bling, checkout the gold pole!

and relax.....

 Jerez, and yes a bottle of sherry was definitely purchased!

Ohh, and I also had a yummy afternoon tea at The Sanderson hotel for Mum's birthday. Highly recommend, it was one of our favourite afternoon teas!
