Irish Blog Awards 2016

It's been a hectic year and it's only now I am getting around to telling you this news. These awards were on around the same time as my wedding so unfortunately I wasn't able to attend. But I was delighted to be shortlisted again this year in Ireland's Blog Awards for "Best Beauty Blog"(two years in a row yay!)

  To have my blog shortlisted with Ireland's greatest is just amazing. I can't believe "Pippa.ie" and "So Sue Me" were along side my name the same category. 

I am so grateful for every person who takes the time and reads the blog.  Did I ever think that starting this as a hobby would go so far! 

I look forward to lots of exciting posts to come in the New Year.

I want to wish you a very Happy Christmas, I hope it's the best one yet.

Love Annette X

Oia

When in Santorini, a trip to Oia is a must. The most photogenic town, sitting on a cliff and known throughout the world for it's famous sunset. 

The Beauty Duo - Forth date added

Have you heard about my new venture with the fabulous hairstylist,Cathriona Rohan. If not, you can have a read here. 

We were ecstatic when we heard that we sold out our first three dates in a few days. 

Our next beauty workshop date will be held in The Killarney Park Hotel on April 2nd 2017. We can't wait to show you all the tips & tricks of hair and makeup.

A fun filled afternoon from 2-6pm where each of you will work a hands-on part in the class.

 You will master the famous smokey eye with my guidance and on the hair side Cathriona will teach you how to dry style properly along with curling and braids.

You will leave, feeling and looking amazing!

If you wish to book tickets mail me on Instagram or our Facebook Page. Tickets are priced at €50 and include some tea and sweet treats.

Thank you for your continued support - I can't wait to meet you all.

Santorini: Santo Wines

We hired a car during the honeymoon, just to find those places we missed on the first time around. Andromahi at Homeric Poems (read about our hotel HERE) helped us find all those spots.

First on our list was the wine tour and tasting at Santo Wines.
