Princess Balconies and Models

So the other week me and a few of our friends were at one of our houses. I'd stuffed my camera in my bag in the morning just incase, and then later decided i had to take advantage of the princess balcony and my model like friends. Some of these were taken by our friend honor so I'll put an asterix by each one and leave her instagram at the end. (Unfortunatley the other Ruby was ill and couldn't come so that's why she's not in any of the photos :( So here are the results of a spontaneous photoshoot with my gorgeous friends.

A Few Favourites.

Hey! Jeezz, i feel like it's been ages since this page has been updated, and we are really sorry it's been so long!! I've just felt really uninspired when it's come to blogpost ideas and i had no idea what to write. But we are back, and here to stay!

So, for today's post, I'm going to ramble on about a few things i have been loving recently, and telling you why they are so amazing. Here goes..

*Real Techniques Duo-Fibre Collection*

These brushes are the softest and most luxurious of the Real Techniques brushes (excluding the new Bold Metals range - duh). They pick up the perfect amount of product if your trying to build it up rather than whack it all on a once. They big one ("Face Brush"), i use for powder, which lightly dust it on, preventing any cakeiness. The medium on ("Medium Contour Brush") is perfect for for blush as well as bronzer. Because i like to keep my makeup very neutral, the light application allows me to apply a really faint yet effective contour. The mini brush is perfect for blending out the last bits of eyeshadow and creating that seamless eyeshadow look. To conclude, three marvellous brushes.

*you can buy these in Boots but it works out a lot cheaper to buy them on Amazon.

*Fjallraven Kanken Backpack in Granite*

I recieved this for my birthday from my dad. It is a great, sturdy, and overall pretty damn cool bag. This is the "Original" size, and I can fit absolutely loads in this. I am not a light packer and often carry two cameras around with me at once so to have a backpack which is designed to maintain posture and back strength is great. The bag itself isn't heavy at all and this colour goes with everything. Love it!

*Film Cameras*

I have been absolutely loving film cameras recently, and i have discovered a photography form called lomography. I think I'll do a separate post on lomography and the lomography cameras i use, so i'll just talk about my favourite. This is an Olympus Trip 35. It takes a 35mm film and is my all time favourite thing i have ever owned. I take it everywhere I go, snapping shots of everything from people to pavements. I have used both colour film and black and white film with this. It is super easy to load and use and has very very simple settings. This camera was very kindly given to me by my neighbour, who has the most amazing collection of vintage cameras. Quite a few people are selling old ones on ebay so if you fancy looking into it, thats the way to go. I highly reccomend investing in a film camera, as there is something so special about having no idea how the photos are going to turn out. 

So thanks for reading, and good luck with any upcoming exams!!
