    Keren, glad you had a good night out, and good luck with the job hunt!

    I've rung Toys R Us and they're coming back to me this afternoon. :rolleyes: I've told them I want a free parasol, but she thinks they might not be in stock at the moment, but did say if not they could sort out a gift voucher instead...yay!

  • Got my £10 Boots voucher from Pigsback - it is my Mum's birthday in January so I'm going to spend it in the sales on something nice for her. I'm determined next year to get as many Boots vouchers as possible with just the click thru's or signups on Pigsback.

    That's what I've been doing I have £25 left over this year. I was going to treat myself to a free make-over and new makeup this afternoon, but the Benefit counter has just called and cancelled.....

    Means I have to do my own make-up for the Christmas party tonight. Just about sums everything up at the moment.

    Oh no Lucy, how pants - could you ask someone to come round and help each other with your make-up? Or just slap it on, and then post a photo on here and we will give you our opinions? (bit more mascara on the left eye.....slightly more lipgloss.....:D).

    I may take you up on that. I'm not normally to bad on my own.

    I'm going to hit Boots with my vouchers on the way home anyway, treat myself to some nice things, to cheer me up and to actually look ok to!

    Ok then.

    This is what I am going to be wearing, so what colour eyeshadows should I go for:

    dark blue jeans with a black strapless top, black and sliver shrug and silver shoes and belt (I'm guessing silver's or smoky grey colours).

    I do have a lovely yellowy eyeshadow that turns green over black eyeliner though....

    Hmmm what do you think?

    Smokey grey and silver sounds lovely! I would go with that.

    Afternoon all.

    I appear to have been rather MIA recently.
