Perfect Base

Hey guys

How are ye ?? I can't believe it is November already Santa Claus will be here before we know it. I am going to write about the best foundation i have EVER used. Now that's a bold statement because i have used alot of foundations but this one is AMAZING. What is it you ask? The Note Cosmetics mattifying extreme foundation . I have oily skin so a good matte foundation is the dream. So why is it so good? It goes on so smooth, blends out seamlessly, its full coverage, lasts hours, doesnt cake, keeps me matte, has an spf 15 built in, doesnt cause flashback in photos and the best part is its only €13.95 i love the packaging its very simple but chic and it has a pump which i love. I haven't a bad thing to say about it. If ye are on the hunt for an amazing foundation then look no further. I will leave a link Here

This is what it looks like it has ceder wood oil and spiraea extract which helps balance the sebum level which helps prevent the formation of acne & pimples. Its also dermatologically tested. There is 35ml in this bottle and it lasts ages as a little goes a long way.

This is what it looks like on its FLAWLESS.

That's all for now

3 Things I Love Right Now

Hey Guys

How are ye?? We are well and truly into Autumn now and i am LOVING it. I Love this time of year. Its bitter sweet though because i hate the Winter and i know that's next..... I have been creating a few Halloween make up looks and i am really enjoying them. If you want to check them out head over to my Instagram linked on the right of this post. Now lets get right into the reason we are all here in the first place and that is my new blog post....

LOVES

1. THE ULTIMATE TRIO PALETTE BY SOSUBYSJ

This palette contains a highlight, contour and glow. The highlight is a banana shade pressed setting powder that really sets and brightens hence the name highlight i apply this on my concealer to set it in place, the contour is a warm brown shade i use to set my cream contour and the glow is a gold toned highlighter and it is beautiful. This palette is perfect for your handbag its small and sleek but so effective and its rose gold so it looks pretty, a must in my make up bag and its only €12.95 i will link it Here

2. THE BPERFECT/ELLIE KELLY BORN READY LIP KIT

These come in 3 shades SECRET, CHEEKY & BOO they all consist of a lip liner, a lipstick and a lip gloss and were officially launched 3 weeks ago tonight in Club 22 in Dublin and i got invited. I was over the moon to say the least but i will do a whole other blog post on that. Leaving the party that night we were given a goody bag and inside was 1 of the lip kits, i got the shade secret and i love it. The lip liner is so soft and glides on, the lipstick is so pigmented and feels very moisturising and it stays for ages but my favourite has to be the gloss oh my god its stunning, it has a beautiful fine golden glitter going through it and it just makes my lips look so plump. I am dying to try the cheeky shade next. they are only €29.95 which i think is great because you get 3 products. I will link them here

3. THE ELLA AND JO SQUEAKY CLEAN BRUSH CLEANER

This brush cleaner is amazing in between clients to spot clean and sanitize my brushes between clients its  a must for every make up artists kit and it smells BEAUTIFUL it has citrus scents in it definitely and its only €20 which i think is good because its a big bottle and a little goes a long way. I have a video on my Instagram feed again if you want to check it out its linked to the right beside this post just hit the Instagram sign. 

Thats all for now

Speak Out

Hey guys How are ye? I still have no update on my health from my last post so ill let ye know when i do. I was at a hen in Galway the weekend for 1 of my amazing friends. Shes not getting married until next year but she lives in Australia and we won't see her again until next year. It was a mad weekend and i would highly recommend Galway. I had my own hen there and both weekends were amazing. Now onto what this post is actually about. I have been wondering should i write this for the longest time and a conversation i had the weekend really sparked something in me to share this with ye all, before i tell ye all i just want ye to know im not sharing this for pity or attetention im sharing it with the hope that it gives someone else the strenght to speak out about this subject or to let them know that you can get through it. There is help out there and it will get better. When i was 5 i was sexually molested by someone i loved and trusted. The persons identity doesn't matter this post isnt about revealing the person or outing the person. I owe nothing to the person but i dont feel anyone would benefit from knowing who it is. Those closest to me know so i dont see the point in telling everyone. I was 5, it happened once (which is one too many times) i was told not to tell anyone because nobody would believe me and id be taken away. I told an adult i trusted with my life the very next day because even at the fragile innocent age of 5 i knew it was very wrong and i was believed straight away i was taken for tests to the family doctor which confirmed my story i had to go to the rape crisis centre ( i wasn't raped ) but they obviously deal with more than just rape. I had to go for counciling a few times and i honestly remember every single bit of it. My childhood was robbed i started feeling really anxious around the age of 12. I started drinking at 13. Did shit at school because i honestly didnt give a shit about it i drank half a litre of vodka at 14 and fell into a river and almost drowned but honestly i didn't care. I didn't want to die but i didn't care if i did if that makes sense. The fact i was molested was never in my head but it was obviously consuming me. At 16 i met my first love and broke my virginty at 18 and i cried straight after because the night my innocence was taken when i was 5 came flooding back to me. We eventually broke up but he was great at the time but obviously we were young. Looking back on my life though i know that night made me make a lot of stupid mistakes. When my eldest daughter turned 5 i couldn't get my head around how someone would want to hurt a tiny innocent child but i eventually learned to let it go and look at the positives in it which are it happened once and i was believed instantly which alot of kids aren't or its swept under the carpet and it goes on for years and because i spoke out even though i was warned not to it stopped... the point of this post is PLEASE PLEASE speak out if someone has touched you in a way you know wasn't right or normal because there is so much help out there. Don't let it define you because you have so much to offer the world. If i can inspire 1 person to speak out and get help then it will have been worth it. I know its scary but trust me it will be ok. Im here if you need to talk. My facebook/instagram are to the right of this post. Lorraine xxx

Life Update

Hey guys

How are ye?? Hope ye are all well. Can we take a minute to talk about the fact that Christmas is only around the corner... OMG i love this time of year right now because we get to dress in all the beautiful Autumn colours and its still mild enough.. i hate the cold so im dreading the winter already. All that aside i have had a weird few months and if you follow me on instagram you might already know that i went for an eye test back in may and the optician noticed something a bit off behind my right eye so i had to be sent for an mri which confirmed something was putting pressure on the back of my eye which thankfully isn't a tumour or anything but i was sent for a lumbar puncture which led to me being diagnosed with hydrocephalus (too much cfs fluid in the centre of your brain) google it if intetested in knowing more about it but thats the general explanation of it. Im currently on a waiting list to see a neurologist to see whats the next step.. medication or surgery or just monitoring it. Its not life threatening as far as i know once its detected. So one minute im fine and the next im sitting at home worrying and also waiting is killing me. I just want to know what's next. I get very dizzy and feel like im being pulled forward. I also get blurred vision in my right eye more frequent than before but i just have to get on with it and keep telling myself it could be worse. Ill keep ye updated. 

On a more positive note i got a new job. Im the business developer of a really exciting company called shopless who are a personal shopping service through an app. Its in Cork & Dublin at the moment and now coming to Kerry starting off in Killarney. If you are a retailer reading this and would like to know more don't hesitate to contact me. I love the girls behind shopless and i am so glad to be apart of such an amazing team ill leave a link HERE if you want to check it out. 

I was at a beautiful wedding at the weekend and i adored my dress so ill pop up a pic so ye can see.

This Michelle Keegan Dress is on sale on On littlewoods and it was so comfortable on.

Shoes Penneys/Primark

Full product list for this make up look on my instagram ill link it HERE

Carnival Time

Hey guys

How are ye? Its been a HOT MINUTE since my last post. I hit a wall i wont lie but im back and ready to get stuck in. Im doing a blog post about the new Bperfect & Stacie Marie carnival palette. I will also be doing a YouTube video but i will keep ye posted on when that goes up.

The palette consists of 17 vibrant matte shades, 7 high pigment shimmers and 2 highlighters.

I love the packaging. 

Isn't it just beautiful.

Ok the pigment in these shadows is INSANE and its by far the best palette i have ever bought. I would never push a product on any of ye unless i truely believed it was worth spending your hard earned money on but ye need this palette. It has so many different colours which means you can create SO MANY different looks from the 1 palette so whether you are just a make up lover or a make up artist this palette would be great to add to your collection/kit. They all blend out soooooo seamlessly, the palette is huge and it includes a big mirror which is always handy. I ordered mine off the bperfect website Here and it was at my door the day after and i honestly havent put it down since. Its €45 but well worth every cent in my eyes. It can be bought in any pharmacy that stock the bperfect brand or from beauty bay Here i will pop some pictures of a few looks i have created below.

I went to the palette launch in cork during the week and luckily got to meet Stacie Marie shes so nice and insanely talented.

This is Brendan ( the founder of Bperfect cosmetics ) with Stacie 

Here are swatches of the shimmers from the palette.

These looks are not for the faint hearted but i love them.

Thats all for now

Dripping in GOLD

Hey guys.

How are ye? I cant believe its July already its crazy how quick the year is going. We are married 6 months and our youngest daughter just turned 3. If ye haven't guessed by the title im doing a post about the Sosu by SJ dripping in gold tan. I bought the medium mousse for €21.95 in sheahans pharmacy killarney but i will leave a link Here to the website. I first wore it on holidays and it went patchy on my legs from the salt water but i just reapplied it and it was perfect again but i decided to get it all off me when i came home and start again and it was perfect. It smells unreal, its dries quick, it doesnt transfer to the bed sheets, it wears off evenly and it is really moisturising so yes a big 10 out of 10 for me. I still love my bperfect 10 second tan in medium coconut so i will be alternating both. At the moment ireland is roasting so i actually have a bit of a natural tan and im loving it.

This is the tan, i love the packaging.

This is a before and after picture. I add a little moisturiser to the tan and pop it on my feet and hands with a stippling brush and its flawless.

Thats all for now

Trip of a lifetime

Hey guys

Its been awhile since my last blog post but hopefully this one will make it worth the wait. If you follow me on my social media platforms you will already know myself and my husband are just back from our honeymoon but if you don't follow my platforms i will leave the links down at the end of this post. 

We booked a Mediterranean cruise for 7 nights with a 1 night stay in venice the night before it. We sailed from venice so it made sense to stay for a night and see what it had to offer and it was amazing there, quiet expensive for drink. Food was pretty similar to ireland prices. Its mostly water in venice so there are bridges everywhere and loads of little side streets but getting around on boats is the norm there. They have public boats, taxi boats and gondolas. We were mad to try a gondola while we were there so we went and priced it and were told it was €80 for 25 minutes but we met a couple wanting to go on aswell and they asked would we like to go halves which we did so that worked out handy. I have a vlog up of all this so ye can see what the gondola was like. We stayed in the cutest little hotel called the Antiche Figure and we had a canal view it was perfect. We ate in 2 seperate restaurants there and the food was amazing. We got a water taxi from the hotel to the ship the next day for €70. we headed into the ship and we were instantly amazed with everything aboard. we went for lunch and headed to our stateroom after we had a little wonder around the ship. Then we got ready and went for dinner. Day 2 on the ship we stopped off in Dubrovonik Croatia and it was amazing I would love to go back its 1 of the nicest places iv ever seen. It just had amazing character and you could get lost in its beauty all day. Day 3 was kotor in Montenegro another beautiful place, we went on a tour of budva a town in kotor and it was beautiful too. Day 3 was sailing for the day and day 4 we went to Santorini in Greece that was beautiful aswell we did another tour there and the views were breath taking  day 5 we stopped in katakolon in Greece such a cute little spot with only 613 residents day 6 was sailing and day 7 was back to venice. All the stops were beautiful but Dubrovnik was the nicest by far.

The ship.
Where do i even start? Everything was amazing on board the ship every deck had something different to offer from bars to a theatre, a casino,  beautiful restaurants, amazing shops, a spa, 2 different pools, a climbing rock and a jogging lane there really is something for everyone. The staff can't do enough for you and they are so friendly, the attention to detail is second to none. We will definitely be booking another 1 and we will be bringing the kids 2 they would love it. The food was beautiful every day. We didnt get 1 bad bit of food and the variety of food is brilliant too, again something for everyone. The rooms are basic enough but they have everything you need. I would highly recommend going on one.

Just 1 tip for venice when your walking through with your suitcase fellas offer to "help" you carry them but they charge afterwards we knew they would expect money for the 2 minute walk so offered a fiver but they wanted €20 each. We obviously didn't give it to them but they did chance their arms so be careful. Other than that everything was perfect. Ill leave a link to the vlog Here if ye want to watch it & subscribe to my channel please.

Also here are links to my Instagram & Facebook if you would like to follow me.

This is just 1 beautiful picture of Santorini.

L.O.V Cosmetics Review

Hey guys

How are ye? As ye can see by the post I'm talking about lov cosmetics, I received a few products from the range from a local pharmacy in Killarney called sheahans they are the only stockists of the brand in Killarney and it was my first time trying the brand so I was delighted to get my hands on them. I was given a foundation, a concealer, a mascara, an eyeshadow palette, a single eye shadow, a lip liner, a lipstick and a nail varnish so quite a few bits. I will put pictures of the products and them on me. I tried them all a few times now so I can give my thoughts on them.

The foundation i was given was the lov time 18 hour long lasting foundation its a velvet matte finish and i LOVE it i really do. Its perfect for day time as its not too full coverage but its buildable so it would definitely work for night time too. Im going to do a youtube video using it during the week and ill let ye know when its up. The foundation is €12.95.

Thats the foundation on.. 

I havent used the concealer or mascara enough to review them but i will soon.

Next up was a lip liner and lipstick and honestly these are my favourite 2 items i was given.

Im wearing them both here and i just think they are a beautiful shade of pink. The lip liner is in the shade saneia and its €6.95 and the lipstick is in the shade yvonne's pink and its €11.95.

I was given an eyeshadow pallette a single eyeshadow and a nail varnish but i think ill keep the eyeshadows for a youtube video this week if ye like? Let me know please. 

If ye would like to follow me on my social media accounts i will leave all the links here.

Current Loves and Lusts

Hey guys hope ye all had a great weekend. I haven't done a loves and lusts post in months so it's long over due. So lets jump right into it.

LOVES

1. The Bbold contour & highlight pallette. It has 3 shades. Contour, Bronzer & highlighter. I love the bronzer the most and the contour also. I only use the highlight shade the odd time because i like my highlight to be seen from the moon and this shade is more of a natural highlight. This comes with a free brush and i love this too. Its the perfect shape and size for bronzing and sculpting those cheek bones. its €22.95 which is great considering you get the brush too. Most chemists have this. I picked mine up in the parkroad pharmacy killarney.

2. The Catwalk HQ tan remover. Trust me when I tell ye this product is a god send. You put it on over old stubborn tan and leave it for 10 minutes then exfoliate it with an exfoliating glove/mitt and rinse it off and it all just washes down the drain.. no better feeling I think personally. It smells lovely and leaves me feeling so soft and squeaky clean. I got mine in sewells pharmacy Killarney for €12.

3. The Luna by Lisa Jordan liquid eyeshadows are a dream. they come in 2 shades in the 1 box for €25. The 2 shades are Rose Quartz and Midnight Onyx. They are really easy to apply and they really glam up any eyeshadow look. I got these in sheehans pharmacy.

This is the rose quartz on x

This is the midnight onyx x

This is what they look like. They are fab x

4. The Sosubysj Vogue lashes are my new favourite lashes they are the ones in the marble boxes and they are re - useable I just love how much volume they give to my lashes and they completely transform my make up once I put them on. They are €12.95. I got mine in Bradley's pharmacykillarney.

This is them on i LOVE them x

5. I know i have talked about this already but the vera mona cake and bake sponge is LIFE if you don't have one you need it.. ill leave a link Here its sold out at the moment but will come back soon.

6. I LOVE this sample beauty pallette its the fiesta pallette they have different ones but i liked this one the most i have a few looks on my instagram using it ill leave a link Here and a link to buy the pallette Here its only £15

LUSTS

1. The plouise palette and base. I NEED these in my life but every time I go to buy them they are out of stock. They are meant to be insane £40 fot the pallette and £10 for the base i NEEEEED them like.

2. The new contour/highlight sticks from sosubysj look divine. I have her complete contour pallette already and i love shade 1 & 3 in that so i think i'd love the light & cool sticks.. €15.95 each and hitting shops the end of this month so cant wait to get my hands on them x also her tan is on the way. I was very kindly sent some to try for our wedding and i loved it so i need that again.

3. The new make up revolution concealers are meant to be AMAZING so i can't wait to try these too and they are so affordable at only €4.99. Take my money....

Thankfully my lusts list is alot shorter than my likes list this time. I have also started a youtube channel i have done 3 proper videos but the lighting in 1 of them is very bad but its all a learning curve so i can only get better i hope. Ill leave a link to it Here and ye can have a look if ye like.

Thats all for now

Luna By Lisa Jordan

Hey guys and girls. Its been awhile since my last blog post sorry for my absence i have started a youtube channel Here ( its still a work in progress) so it took up a bit of my time trying to figure it all out but im back with an exciting post. I have been using the Luna by Lisa Jordan miracle hair treatment for the passed 12 weeks now and it is AMAZING my hair was blonde for so long and in such bad condition even when i went back dark it was still in bits, that was until i picked up this amazing hair treatment. It claims to have 12 amazing benefits for the hair which you can find Here but the 2 that i have really seen for myself have been that it definitely repairs dry/damaged hair &  its an excellent detangler. My brush literally glides through my hair when i use it and iv two daughters who love it also for that reason. I get so many compliments on my hair lately about how good the condition is and its literally down to the Luna hair treatment and don't even get me started on the smell off it. It smells of coconuts it instantly makes me excited for summer when i spray it and its only €16 which is totally worth it in my opinion. Its one of those products i will be using in years to come. So go out and get it and thank me later.

I was nominated for an award for the connect kerry hair and beauty awards a few weeks back for the blogger of the year award and i won. I was in shock when they said my name i really didn't expect to win. Im at this 2 years now so its nice to be recognised for it. It was an amazing event i had such a great time. Thanks to all of ye who voted and who constantly support me.

That's all for now

Upcycling

Hey Guys how are ye??

I Hope ye enjoyed my last two blog posts. I really enjoyed writing them.

Onto the next one though and as ye can tell by the title its about upcycling. The zip yard Tralee contacted me about a collaboration and I jumped at the chance. They basically take your pre loved pieces and change them up to make them into a different piece and I have loads of stuff in my wardrobe I wont wear again but don't want to throw out and I'm sure its the same as most women so I was delighted to bring in a few pieces to chop and change. When I went over to the zip yard Stacey and all the team were so nice and more than helpful, They were telling me they also run a dry cleaning service so if anyone from the Tralee area is reading this pop in to the girls and they will take care of ye. So I brought in a few pieces that I love but was sick of and we decided on this sequin vintage jacket I picked up in mon amie Killarney a few years ago. Its since closed down but they had amazing pieces and a fabulous vintage section. I loved it before but OH MY GOD  I'm in obsessed with it now.

So we decided on taking off the sleeves and adding faux leather capped sleeves instead and I'm so happy with how it turned out it has transformed it so much. I can't wait to wear it now again. Let me know in the comments section below what ye think.

I don't have a price list but something like this would cost roughly €40 and I have a different jacket. OBBSESSED with it now and I look forward to working with the zip yard again in the future.

That's all on this post guys but I have also been nominated for an award for the connect Kerry hair and beauty awards I would love if ye could kindly vote for me please it only takes two minutes and I would really appreciate it ill leave the link Here

That's all for now

Thanks for reading

Our Wedding Part 2

Hey everyone I hope ye enjoyed my previous wedding post. I am going to go through a few more details on this post about our entertainment, cake, band and so much more so lets jump straight in.


Firstly our band were the 2 Mikes and family ties and I must say I hadn't heard of them before but Tim had and suggested them. We went to Causeway to see them 1 night because I wanted to know what they were like and I wasn't disappointed they had the whole room on their feet which is what you want for your wedding day. We went to a wedding fair the next day in the INEC Killarney and booked them straight away. The night of the wedding the floor was full from start to finish. There were 4 of them playing and they are gentlemen I couldn't recommend them enough.here is a link to their page


Next up is our cake. Oh my god I loved it and we really enjoyed the cake tasting that was the fun part haha. We went with chocolate fudge, raspberry and coconut, strawberry sponge and fruit cake in that order from bottom tier up I ordered it off Mandy Trant I order every occasion cake off her and have been going to her for years she is unbelievable at what she does no job is too big or too small for her.

                                                        here is her facebook page


I ordered a post box for the cards so people had somewhere to put them and  I knew they would be safe there also. While I was ordering it something else caught my eye and I had to have it

This is the post box and I thought it was a great idea. They are handmade so a lot of work goes into them and everyone thought it was a nice touch

Then this is the other item I was talking about. When I seen it I had to have it because we both have family members who have passed and we would have loved them to be there on the day so I thought this was  a great idea and again everyone loved it. I also ordered a Christmas eve box off them for my 2 girls and they loved it all 3 pieces were amazing quality.

ill leave their facebook page here

Next up are our beautiful flowers I went around to a few flower shops in Killarney and priced around. I went with white heather florists and Rima the lady that was dealing with me was so nice and helpful and she did an amazing job on our flowers. We got our bouquets for myself and the bridesmaids, the button holes for my husband and his groomsmen a throw away bouquet, our centre piece for the alter and 2 bouquets of flowers for our mothers they were all amazing. I got the church decorated by a different woman then she decorates it with hanging lanterns fake flowers an arch and a red carpet it was beautiful.  Rima white heather

This is just 1 picture of my amazing bouquet up close but they are in a few of the previous pictures and the bridesmaids ones too.

This was our amazing centre piece and I ordered the candles online from here they were amazing and the company were so helpful with other aspects of our wedding.

I then ordered these 2 pieces, a ring box & a sign for the miniature groomsman to hold as he walked up the aisle. I ordered them here I have ordered pieces from Sarah previously and they are always amazing.

My maid of honour ordered these glasses for the morning of the wedding here and they were a lovely touch I thought. I have also ordered from Amy before and she is amazing at her job.

so that sums up our wedding. Any questions don't hesitate to ask.

That's all for now.

Thanks for reading.

All my Love

Our Wedding

Hey guys.

Happy New year... i am well aware we are half way through January already but this is my first post of 2018. I took a bit of a break but im back.. and my very first post has to obviously be about our wedding. Im going to tell ye all about the day and share where we got everything incase ye have a wedding coming up. So firstly we had the most amazing day and i would love to do it all again.

When we set the date we were so excited!!! Myself my mom and mother in - law went to a wedding fair in  the The Brehon  and we went through the packages they had to offer and we were shown around the hotel we fell in love with the place. It was the only place i had looked so i rang my husband to come out and have a look. He basically said once your happy with it i am so that was that we booked it there and then and i threw myself into the organising it i enjoyed it for the most part, bar 1 or 2 hiccups but i think they happen everyone. The first thing i found and wanted were my shoes... i know what ye are thinking shoes before the dress... but i really wanted them. I originally wanted a different pair these one's but when i went to brown thomas in dublin they weren't there i cant find a link for the pair i got but ill leave a pic below. Next up was the dress. I went to 1 dress shop and it was the 3rd one i tried on and i knew instantly it was the one. I went in with an open mind and i tried on 5 different styles all together but went back to dress number 3. I got it in Unique boutique bridal castleisland dee is so nice to deal with and great craic, ill leave a pic below and i also picked up my veil there. We had 6 bridesmaids,  6 groomsmen and 2 flower girls that needed to be dressed so i thought up of colours and had a look through pinterest (your best friend while planning a wedding) then i ran them by my husband and we decided on wine dresses and navy blue suits and i must say the colours worked so well together. I picked up 5 of the dresses in Kates Kloset in limerick and kate was fabulous to deal with. She has a huge range of dresses so id highly recommend her shop. I got my daughters dress on wish would ye believe because she was 1 of the bridesmaids but is only 9 so i thought the dresses i picked out for the other 5 girls were too grown up for her. I got the flower girl dresses in Debenhams  they are now on sale. We then picked up the suits in Suits Select tralee we got 3 piece suits shirts belts ties/ dickey bows and shoes in there for all the boys at €199 a man which was handy to do it all in the same place. We were thinking of renting but you would be minding them all night then so we bought them as a present to the lads. The girls got their own shoes and i got their jewellery in The Killkenny Shop  my own jewellery was from keanes and their pjs for the night before in Heatons Stores and checked us all into the hotel the night before as a little treat with my mom and my 2 kids. I got myself my mom and the kids robes from Robes4you i will leave pictures of everything below and i will do another blog post in a few days about our invites, band, cake , flowers and everything else.

The brehon hotel and our cars were from Horans wedding cars

I fell in love with these. I love the cut and the inside is blue.

 Tan was from sosubysj its not out yet but she very kindly sent me some to try for our big day. I loved it

They scrub up well 😂

My mom bought my jewellery for me

Hair by Tara Boughen

Fur stoles were tk maxx for the adults and dunnes for the kids 

My mom's outfit was from The moderne

I got the pjs printed by Dave in  Smartcustomwear and the robes came printed.

My something old was my engagement ring 

My something new was the jewellery

My something borrowed was my bag

That's all for now
