Hello my honey-bunnies! I can't believe it's February already, where did January go? At the beginning of the year (my gosh we can say that already!) I contemplated cutting a shorter, straight-across fringe into my hair...and contemplated...and contemplated...and, well, I've finally done it! I left it slightly long so I can sweep it over to one side and if I feel like having a full-on fringe then I'll trim it a bit more.
I was a bit naughty today and bought myself a new dress in New Look AND this lovely snood from Dorothy Perkins. The dress I'll no doubt wear this week, but the snood is just so pretty I had to show you! I tried to take full length outfit photos but they came out rubbish, and as the dress I'm wearing has featured on here before I figured it didn't necessarily need to show up again. Practically my whole outfit is DP today, the dress is from there, as is the cardie, and then you have the snood as well!
I've read a lot on blogs about how people are starting Frugal February or doing 28 for 28 challenges. I considered doing one of these but, well, my loan should come in this month so why should I be frugal? (haw haw) I could try and do it but I really don't think my shopaholic side will take it (although I did stop myself from buying a sandwich in M&S today, which is a start!) and I'm not creative enough to manage with 28 pieces of clothing, although to be fair I wear the same items over and over so maybe I could...anyway, I've decided to try something I've made up myself and I shall call it NO FOUNDATION FEBRUARY.
I own far too many foundations and I've bought 3 in the last month, which is absolutely ridiculous. My mum always says the reason my skin is so bad is because I use foundation, so I wondered if I didn't use it, would my skin improve? I know you can't see blemishes in the photo above but trust me, in real life it's not a pretty sight!
Can I survive 28 days without foundation? Will my concealers be up to the task? Stay tuned to find out!
xoxo
Good luck with you No Foundation February! I am doing Frugal Feb, and in March 31 for 31 haha! Gotta challenge yourself at least once a month I say!

I never wear foundation because I find it makes my skin look and feel completely awful! I just wear concealer. Maybe it might clear up your skin?
ReplyDeleteI love the snood, it looks so cosy!

Oh you pretty thing! Love the colour of the snood - it really suits you!
ReplyDeleteI really want to give up foundation too, I never used to wear any at all but now I wear it daily. I'm sure my skin would appreciate being left foundation-free... hmmm maybe I'll join you in this challenge... I'm scared though! xxx
@Kitty - thank you!Wow you're doing well, I can't face the idea of more than one challenge! Good luck to you too xx
ReplyDelete@Sophie - I kind of wish I'd never started wearing foundation! My skintone is really uneven though so I feel a bit naked without it, but oh well! The snood is gorgeous, I love snoods now, everyone must go buy snoods (the word is awesome too. Snoooood) xx
@Franki - go for it! We can document our progress together, and give each other support during these tough foundation-less times! Start a support group...ok maybe not, but you get the idea! xx
