Mother's Day!

This is what I'm giving her .. :)

1. Breakfast in Bed is a must! Ever since I could cook (7) I have done this for her, and it's just sticked. I also make BB for my Dad because he feels lonely sitting next to her buffet haha!

What I include:
Sweet: Chocolate chip pancakes. You could also use blueberries etc.
- Add one cup of flour to a medium-sized bowl. Add 2 tsps of baking powder, 2 tsps sugar, 1/2 tsp of salt and combine.
- In a smaller bowl add two eggs and 2 tsps of vegetable oil (such a universal product).
- Pour wet ingredients into dry and mix.
- Pour one cup of milk, little at a time, to mixture and mix!
- Add 3/4 chocolate chips or whichever, and stir into batter.
- Grease frying pan with butter and heat high for about a minute, then bring down to medium.
- Spoon a 1/4 cup of batter, forming a perfect circle with the 1/4 cup.
- When cooked on edges and bubble form, turn over.
- Add butter or syrup or sauce if wished.

Drink: My mum prefers earl grey tea and fresh orange juice!

Omelette/ Scrambled eggs if you can't cook one lol
- Heat pan until sizzling hot, important!
- Whisk three eggs, 2 tbsp of milk, pepper and salt.
- Pour into pan and pull the edges up so the uncooked egg can run underneath.
- Garnish with parsley.

Fruit Salad
- Get two of your mother's favourite fruits. My mum's is strawberries and blue berries.
- Layer a cup like this:
- Strawberries, vanilla greek yoghurt, muesli/ granola, blueberries, yoghurt and muesli/ granola with a strawberry on top!

Presents
Because I am a beauty and baking freak, it has to be related to one of them. Because she doesn't wear makeup, I usually get her either a Lush bath bomb or massage bar, her favourite scent (usually
or a voucher for a bra/ nightwear/ slippers etc.

Also I always make a nice dinner such as a roast, lasange, bbq or cottage pie with vegetables. And dessert, I stick to something simple such as a cake or cupcakes. Yay!

Also a box of chocolate will go far ;) hehe

BE SANTANA FROM GLEE!

So alot of people say I look like Santana from Glee, a.k.a Naya Rivera. If I did, I wouldn't wear makeup haa! So heres how to look like her. I will be doing a vid on my channel .. Such a babe!!

1. Costume:
- This I ordered off ebay for about $60 N.Z dollars. It pretty average quality, but will still do! If you're a die-hard Glee cheerio fan, then you invest in the one with the actual pleated skirt .. but I wanted to get the official one from the glee site. About $250 N.Z dollars I believe .. eek. Pretending your a cheerleader, cool! haha

- Or you could make it yourself. A few have, but I'm no sewing machine. I'll get my younger sister who is a fashion designer to!

- Or you could order one like this from America, same pattern and colour, adding the WMHS logo onto it ..

2. Hair: she has silky black. So dye your hair or use a wig. Blonde would be a Brittany or Quinn.

Hair style: Wave your hair using my 'Hollywood wave' tutorial blog. Volumise with a curler the roots on the top of your head (just leave the curling tong underneath the roots) or backcomb a little to form a quiff. Comb the top of your hair a little high, then secure with a black, then red hair tie. You could even pop in a red bow. But you'll look like a N.Z private school girl (sad, but true).
Spray with a shine hairspray, she has such glossy/ slick hair.

3. Makeup: Very neutral. Her lips are a rosy nude. Or even a bright red. Very volumptious lips. She doesn't really wear much eyeshadow, but I'd go for a matte/shimmery brown such as satin taupe and then a highlight in the innercorner of the eye and under the brow. Focus however on the eyeliner: liquid or gel on the top and pencil the full way on the bottom. She has very slanted, but small eyes. Thick false lashes are a must!

Face makeup: Tawny/ olive/ tan/ medium beige coloured foundation. Focus on the contouring, she has such sharp features! Top of the temples (above eyebrows), under cheekbones, jawbone and sides of bone of your nose: add a matte bronzer. A little peach blush on the cheeks, super cute!

Breaking up with my Boyfriend?

This isn't gonna be a WAAAAAAH! blog, just some tips and .. goss?

Hey everyone, Caz here. So I just broke with my boyfriend after 11 months, 1 day and 9 hours of being together :( He was my first boyfriend, first love and first real kiss. But I am okay. I think we were just different. And differences, do not always attract.

1. Our personalities were different.
- Hes very easy going, vague, serious, easy going, outgoing, honest, sensitive.
- I'm very organised, particular, funny, focused, homely, reserved, emotional.
We didn't realise this at the beginning, but different personalities CLASH.

2. We wanted different things in life.
- I wanted success.
- He wanted alot of friends.

3. We liked doing different things.
- I love homely things: baking, cleaning, sleeping, cooking, blogging, vlogging, exercising.
- He loves movies, clubbing, restaurants, shopping.

Most of all we weren't happy. We loved each other and cared about one another, ALOT. But our disagreements seemed to occur everyday.

If he comes crying back to me, there are some changes (on both sides) we need to sort out. If not, theres someone else out there for both of us. I cringe saying that haha!

Live the life you dream :)

How to get Hollywood Carpet Waves!

So hello lovelies :) Alot of youtubers have been wondering how I got this look, read on!

1. Outfit: I wore this in Autumn. Reds, oranges, dark teals are in! I am wearing a red cardy from glassons and a simple black cammy. I paired this with dark jeans (washed doesn't look great with red). Red is such a bold and attractive colour :)

2. Makeup: I'm not actually wearing any foundation, powder, bronzer, concealer etc. I am wearing eyeliner, mascara and elf sunset eyeshadow (perfect for Autumn!). But most importantly I am wearing Revlon's Coral. So pretty! It would more suit lighter coloured skin tones though.

3. Now for the hair.
- So first of all you want to curl from a little half way of your hair length. Do not do the top, this makes it seem unnatural and boofy.
- I used a straightner, you can use what you have. Starting half way, place the heat tool on your hair.
- Twirl 180 degrees towards your head, then pull the tool through your hair to the bottom. Important: As you pull your tool down the hair, roll the tool around slowly.
Tip: it is important to go slowly to define the curl.
- When you get to the bottom, don't release, wind the tool back up to half way and hold it there for at least 5 seconds.
Tip: Make sure at all times to angle the tool horizontally (not diagonally this time)
- Let the curl loosely fall and wrap in rollers, preferably medium sized one. I got 12 I think for $3.00 at the asian store between albert park and queen st. I think its on Victoria street??
- Do this all around hair. Leave for at least thirty minutes to set and cool.
- Spray head with hair spray and release.
- Brush ends slightly if curl is tight and to achieve that beautiful, natural look.

Tip: I always use a serum, Garnier Fructis works for me!
