Zoeva Wishlist
A few weeks ago as I was looking on my Bloglovin feed I came across quite a few reviews on a really pretty eyeshadow palette and I found out that it was from the brand Zoeva. The eyeshadow palette I wanted was the new Cocoa Blend palette and is a palette of warm shades which I love! I had heard of them before but it wasn't until I was looking on Beauty Bay I realised how reasonably priced everything was so today I thought I would do a wishlist of the things I would really like to get at some point...

My 100th post - The 5 things I love about blogging
I can't believe that today my blog is 1 year old and it is also my 100th post! I started my blog as something to do in my spare time and also a place to put all of my fashion, hair, nails art, make up ideas and other life events.
For my 100th post I am going to right about the 5 things I love about blogging, hope you enjoy and here is to many more years of The Beauty Bouquet!
1. That it is creative, I enjoy playing around with layouts and editing photos.
2. That it allows me to forget about everything for a while and concentrate on writing.
3. I get to write about things that I love, especially make up!
4. It has got me more into reading different blogs because I now have Bloglovin.
5. Thinking of new ideas for blog posts and taking photos.

Summer Outfits
Summer is coming and hopefully we will be able to wear some lovely summer outfits here in the UK, fingers crossed for some sunny weather! Today I thought I would do a post with some inspiration on summer outfits.
Day or night
This outfit would be perfect for both day or night as you could swap the shoes for flats.
Summer party
This would be really nice for a night out or even maybe a summer wedding.
Day time casual
An outfit great for during the day with flat shoes and simple jewellery.

Rusty red eyeshadow and glossy lips
This make up look is something I did quite a few weeks ago but I had only just remembered I had the photos. It was something I had played around with to create but in the end I really loved it. I think the colour combination of the eyes and lip look really good together and and I think the colours on my eyelids suit my greeny coloured eyes.
The products I used for this look were;

Nails of the Week
These nails were ones I did last week but amazingly the design on my thumbs was still on a week later! I did change the colour on my other nails about five days later though. This is a very summery design and was really easy to do. I was inspired by a You tube video (here), but I just changed the colours slightly and the amount of nails I did the design on. Although you don't need any nail art tools I did use a dotting tool for the centre on the flowers but you don't really need to.
For my nails I used these nail varnishes;
Avon Nailwear Pro in Habenero It Girl - £6.00 (not sure you can get it anymore)
Laval Crystal finish nail varnish in Ultra Green - (not sure where I got this from there is a few on Amazon)
