Friday Favourites

October 26, 2012

 

Happy Friday!

This week has just flown by, thankfully, and I can’t wait for a weekend of sun, sand and sleep.

The last week I’ve been on cloud 9 and am still reeling from all your lovely comments and support on the Cosmo Collective role. Thank you!

Enjoy this weeks Friday Favourites…

 

 

Pretty hair – I am currently in a little competition where I have to come up with some hairstyles (more details to come)… I’m going to attempt this doo tomorrow.

Oh Alex! - I could look at Alex O’Laughlin all day and that’s almost what I did last weekend when I caught up on episodes of Hawaii 5-0. Phwoar!

A couple of cuties decorating cupcakes – This week I made a number of pink recipes to help promote awareness of Pink October. Tuesday’s recipe was Pink Vanilla Cupcakes and I enlisted the help of my gorgeous nephews and nieces to decorate.

I love Stanley – I have been a fan of Stanley Tucci for as long as I can remember, so when I found out he had a cookbook I just had to have it. Stay tuned for a few recipes and review coming shortly.

Play with clay – I have now included Dermalogica’s Derma Clay Cleanser to my weekly beauty routine. ‘Purify and refine oily skin with this deep-cleansing clay formula, containing oil-absorbing, water-soluble Kaolin and Green clays. Calming Cucumber and Sage soothe, while refreshing Menthol revitalizes even the most tired skin. Formulated without artificial fragrances and colours.’

Mini manis – My darling nieces love painting nails with Auntie Stephie. This week it was all pink and sparkles!

One day – I will have a porch like this at my beach house. I just need to find that money tree.

Countdown is on – for my holiday. I was jumping out my chair this week when I saw photos of all the snow at Big White this week. BRING IT ON!

Which means – Christmas is only 2 months away! I LOVE Christmas, especially a white one. I better start preparing Christmas recipes soon. Are their any Chrissy recipes you’d like to see on Lipstick & Cake?

Girl crush – on Krysten Ritter.

See-through no more! – Thanks to Model Co Super Tan I won’t look like an albino seal when I sun myself (safely of course) on a beach this weekend! I’ve put on a few coats and I’m streak free and a nice golden brown.

Raspberry Ice anyone? – I am currently borrowing this gorgeous Raspberry Ice KitchenAid from the new Platinum

In Cosmo this week – Make sure you check out this weeks post in Cosmo which is a delicious recipe, Summer Paella.

Highlighter on my toes – How gorgeous is this colour, Call Me Maybe, from the Hello Darling ‘Crazy In Love’ collection.

 

 

What have you got planned for the weekend?

Another fabulous Friday Favourites Steph! I’m getting ready for Christmas and have decided on a theme and ordered decorations, I can’t wait to play all my favourite Christmas CD’s! I’m really looking forward to seeing your Christmas recipes. I LOVE your raspberry ice Kitchenaid, I have one on my wish list. I hope you’ve been having a gorgeous weekend sunning yourself, we had fish and chips at the beach this afternoon – it was beautiful. A xx
