February Update!

February has flown by I have been quite ill with a virus that is dragging on, thankfully work has been a bit quieter this month.  I went on holiday to Valencia which was great but I was ill the entire holiday...not so great! I am looking forward to a busy wedding season kicking off at the end of March and currently I am busy with Wedding shows, Admin', lessons, shoots and trials.

Valencia Pics!











And relax...



Someone had taken the time on Valentines day to make a shell heart so I obviously had to take a snap.



Obligatory Valencian orange tree!



The Ceramics Museum.  I was blown away by the stunning architecture in Valencia.

January Update!

Who said January was quiet... it has been a crazy month with lots of weddings being booked in, a lot of hair and makeup trials as well as lots of shoots and generally catching up on other areas of my business that doesn't involve the makeup side!

I am also trying to make more time for my health and well being this year so I have finally joined a gym after almost ten years and plan to start yoga, pilates and swimming!!

Here are just a few of the gorgeous brides to be who I have had the absolute pleasure of working with.

SPACE NK Launches in Harpenden!

SPACE NK Apothecary has opened its 60th store in my home town Harpenden today and I have no doubt it will do very well here.   It has a great corner location overlooking the church green and will be open every day of the week.



I was kindly invited along to the opening and met lovely Rana who showed me around the store while I enjoyed a very nice glass of bubbles, well it would be rude not too!



For those that don't know SPACE NK stocks a select range of premium make-up, skincare, fragrance  and haircare including brands such as NARS, HOURGLASS, CHANTECAILLE, BY TERRY, ORIBE, SUNDAY RILEY, KIEHL'S, MAMA MIO, BUMBLE & BUMBLE and so many more...

A big thank you SPACE NK for my lovely goodies which I look forward to pampering my lovely clients with.

December Update!

December has flown by! I had a couple of winter weddings this month which were lovely and christmasy, a few shoots, lessons and trials as well as party makeup's and have been busy generally getting up to date on everything work wise for the end of the year. I am looking forward to starting 2018 with a plan for a much better work life balance and my new years resolution is to start doing yoga!

We also went to Dubai for a weeks holiday at the beginning of December, it was a much needed break at a fabulous hotel and so lovely to be in the sunshine!

We visited Abu Dhabi for the day and the new Louvre gallery which was amazing
definitely worth a visit if you are in the area.

Then back to a snowy and very cold England, 30 degrees back to minus 6 was not fun!!



We finally got a  Christmas tree and decorations up a week before Christmas, shopping done presents are wrapped and looking forward to a fun filled festive break.

Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a Healthy and Happy New Year.
