Holiday look book - katiedailiesdaily

Hey guys :) welcome back to katiedailiesdaily :) I have a treat for you as I have just spent a week of holidays in the beautiful Kerry in Ireland :) the weather was sunny most days but very very windy as it was right beside the ocean :) 

 Outfit number one :) 

This outfit seems a little bright, but hey it's summer! It has a cut out hole on your stomach which I've covered by wearing a white tank top underneath :) 

I got this for €16 on boohoo.com and I love it! The only negative is the dress can be quite see through, but the quality is amazing, feels very light, cool and very comfy! Perfect dress for a hot holiday as the length is perfect!!! 

I kept my make up very simple as I did not want my mascara to run in the heat! 

Face Rimmel 25hour stay foundation in ivory! Naked by urban decay eyeshadow and boots lipstick in rosé petal from the natural collection! 

Outfit number two :) 

It was a little windier this day and prone to rain so I wore a slightly rockerish version of my typical skater skirt outfits! 

I paired this with tights €3 for 3 pairs from primark! A maroon skater skirt from primark €7 and a black ruffled armed fair trade top €12 from Tesco! 

I also paired it with this skull scarf, which I bought from a vendor stall in Dublin city for only €6! 

I kept my makeup very clean with the urban decay eyeshadow palette, and the new apocalypse lip gloss from Rimmel in apocalyptic in boots 2 for €12! 

Outfit number 3 :) 

This was a day I spent a lot of climbing up hills, going to sight seeing destinations and taking lots of pictures! I wanted to be comfortable and cool at the same time! 

I got this stripy top from primark for €7!!! The black skater skirt in primark for €7 and tights in primark 3 for €3! I wore tights as it was extremely windy! 

I got this necklace from primark for €5 also worn with a different outfit pictured above! 

I went with bright make up this day as the outfit was very dark :) bright red lipstick in Big Bang from apocalyptic lip glosses from Rimmel! 2 for €12! 

Outfit number 4 :) 

I wore this beautiful orange necklace from primark for only €1!! This plain white crop top was only €1 from primark as well!

I paired it with a red skater skirt from primark for €7 and navy tights from new look! 

I wore it with these navy and white pokda dot converse styled shoes from primark for €8!!

I am obsessed with these!!! 

Outfit number 5 :) 

This day I did a lot of travelling so I wore this cotton dress from primark for €15! 

I paired it with a sliver belt from primark €2! A funky glasses necklace from Claire's accessories €9.95 and bracelets from primark and my own collection! 

I also paired it with white ankle socks and the same pokda dot converse style shoes :) 

Outfit number 6 :) 

This night was a night out with my friends! I got this stripy black skater style dress (dya think I like skater dresses? ;)) from primark for €17!!! I paired it with rimmels Big Bang apocalypse lip gloss and a deep gold smokey eye! 

I paired it with these black wedge boots €22 from primark!!! Which I loooove! 

Happy holidays guys :) 

Boohoo Haulin' - KatieDailies

Hey guys, So recently I've been spending money like a mad women!
I needed to buy a new dress for an upcoming event, but then I ended up getting sucked into the shiny sale deals of Boohoo.Com

At first everything went smootly until I got the package and it was missing the dress I had needed, long story short I contacted  Boohoo customer care and they said it was "out of stock" I was outraged as they had taken the money out of my account when they didn't need too.

So eventually I ended up ordering the dress in a different size and different colour and it came just in time and I was so excited! :)

While repurchasing the dress the second time, they over charged me and after another incident of contacting Boohoo they finally sorted my problems. So lets get into the haul :)

This is the lara sweetheart neckline dress and I purchased it in plum the first time round, second time I ended up with a Khakai green which is gorgeous! It was €15 when I purchased it but its only €12 now! Bargain! The delivery is free and the dress is made out of such nice quality material!

Sadly, I had to return this next product, I bought it in a size 14 and it just did not sit right, the material was like a wetsuit material, which sat very heavy on the body. I have returned this and am so sad about it as the length and colour were perfect except the shape! €9 on Boohoo.

This next item is one of my favorites, Its a hand harness and I love these things! This is €8 on boohoo, gold with spikes, my favorite thing is the two rings connecting to it are cute little shapes like hearts and flowers, its edgy while being girly all in one! 

For months now I have been collecting statement necklaces, So the Hattie triple row was an obvious choice for me! 

I taught €16 was a little pricey for this necklace but realizing how much detail went into it, it was actually a bargain! In person the colour is a little more yellow than the gold in the picture. I am in love with this and the €16 price tag was completely worth it!! 

I love pairing this with denim shirts and a skater skirt for a cute fashionable look! 

This next top is a bargain, it looks like a necklace along with a top! :)

Its only €12 and i got it in black, the only con is that it is extremely short, the front is so short it is nearly a crop top!!!! 

I love tucking this into a high waist-ed skirt or shorts and it looks fab! 

This black all over studded bag is gorgeous!!!! I have the exsact same bag from Primark and I got it for €3 on sale. Orginally 12 in primark. This bag on boohoo is well worth the €`16 price tag as it goes with everything and is well made!

I have become OBSESSED with the Charlie chain hand harness, I love love love these things. I got this harness for 10% with my student discount from unidays! :)
The gold is fabulous and looks great with any outfit :)

Enter code Euro10 at the checkout to receive a further 10% off!!! 

Overall I was happy enough with my Boohoo experience and was refunded all the money I was owed eventually. The only problem with Boohoo is that the customer service is through email, facebook and twitter, so no phone line means you will be waiting longer than normal! 

Overall I am happy with my new purchases! 

Happy shopping days girls :)

Homemade Hair cleanser :) DIY - Kate Dillon

Did you know baking soda is one of the easiest ways to clean your hair? I've started using this baking soda mix once a week now compared to traditional shampoo!

THIS METHOD HAS CHANGED MY HAIR its now amazing! 

Hair build up is caused by using products on our hair. By shampooing we do not clear this problem but mearly add to it more!! 

I’m a completly DIY since my hair is so damaged from the bleech in my hair. I've been trying to avoid the nasty chemicals in most hair treatments.  They may leave your hair feeling sliky smooth but are they actually helping your hair? 

• sodium Sodium Lauryl
• Parabens 
• Fragrance
• These are three of the worst ingredients, but are in most shampoos!!! 

When we think fragrance  we think of the smell, strawberries, fruits or even something delicious. This word can actually mean nearly 4000 harsh chemicals! 

I tried a clarifying shampoo, but that made my dry hair even more dry!!!!  I then started to use an intensense hair mask with it, and that seemed to make my hair look even more dead!! I was seriously thinking of chopping off a few inchs of my hair I was that fed up!!!! 

We all remember how baking soda and vineger reacted in school in those volcanos now i simply, wash with baking soda, rinse with vinegar, blow dry, and curl! . 

That's it and my hair has never been as strong!!! My hair tends to get stripped by the shampoos i was using, I was trying to teach it to become more oily to lower the amount of times I had to wash it! 

 This is the cheapest thing I have ever tried!! 

The only negative is that this will not foam but its worth it!! 

Mix 1 part baking soda with 3 parts water. (  4 tablespoon of water - 1 tablespoons baking soda) 

I have long hair so I mix 4 tablespoons of baking soda, to 16 tablespoons of water. . 

Apply the baking soda and water mixture to dry or wet hair by starting at the roots and working to the ends.  

Let it sit for 1 - 3 minutes then rinse with warm water. 

Mix 1 part white vinegar with 4 parts water. (1 tablespoon vinegar - 4 tablespoon water) I add french vanilla or almond oil to reduce the vinegar smell!!! 

I tilt my head forwards close my eyes, and spread over my hair! 

After a few seconds, rinse with cold water. The cold water helps to seal in moisture, smooth the hair, and add shine.

Will you try the baking soda and vinegar method? Any tips for good hair?

Happy Hair Days :)

Panda eyes! Liz Earle Cleansing Polish

Hey guys...

we all know that feeling, waking up with black eyes, identical to a Panda!! But how do we get rid of them before bed?

My savior!!!

Liz Earle cleansing lotion! This stuff is amazing!!!

How does it work?

Simple rub one pump of the lotion onto dry skin, with the muslin clothes given rinse under boiling water and wipe lotion off fashion with cloth!

Could it be any easier?!

Why is this so different to any other cloth?

The lotion and cloth work perfect together to cleanse and sooth the skin.

I have to admit i had a really bad skin care routine.

I now use this twice daily! :)

And my skin has become so good! :)

I got this as a gift but usually retails at 23€ for the starter pack. Including 200ml of the lotion, a wash bag and 2 muslin clothes!

i love this stuff so much!!! :)

will be repurchasing over and over :)

Happy skin days :)

NYX secret world. Ten pan palette review :)

Hey guys :) As of recently ive been looking to expand my same old boring eye shadow colours, now i'm not saying if you were browns and blacks every day your boring but im trying to explore new colours :)

I have recently bought this NYX palette and could not be more happier! 

This palette has such a wide range of colours from orange to brown, peach to green, there is something for everyone!

Now im not one to smear pink eye shadow all over my eye lids and say "perfect" and go! No no, i love a good auld smokey eye! This kit is perfect for that. Lately i have been using the carrot orange colour on my inner corner and then smoking it out with the deep brown! It looks gorgeous!

This palette is seriously such a bargain! For ten pan shadows its $10! Meaning each eye shadow is only $1!

The price is amazing, and i would definitly recommend this to anyone! I know many times you can spend up to €50 on eye shadow palettes and theres always some colours in the palette that you will not wear, yes i agree i may not be the biggest green fan, but for such a good price i cannot complain!

The packaging is absolutely amazing. I was expecting something flimsy and something that would smash easily. I was so wrong. The black plastic is very dense and hard, the mirror inside is glued in so well you would want to throw it to smash it. I have dropped this several times and still have yet to have a chip!

The pans are nice and secure and around them is a dense plastic lip protecting them from the upper case. The case itself clicks together and it very dense. It is literally fool proof. For a cheaper item it has very high quality packaging! 

The colour outcome is amazing! There is no colour in this palette that is lacking pigmintation! They all have a creamy, satin feel! The first time i touched the eyeshadows i was confused, they were so soft and gentle i taught they were cream shadows!

Rubber and worn without primer they do not last too long!

I would suggest using this palette with a primer, as they are shimmer eye shadows. I know many people do not love shimmer so much but worked in well they look lovely!

These pictures above are taken with a flash and are very true to colours in real life!  

The ingredients etc! 

I have included the link to where you can buy this palette! I would definitly recommend this palette i you are a lover of creamy, satin, smooth, shimmery and colour palettes! NYX also ship all over the world so there is no excuse not to try it :)
