Calendar Girls

New Year, new calendar. That's usually how it works. Although I haven't actually had a calendar for god knows how long, 
But this year I have a very good reason to buy one. I have never been more excited by one before.
My yearly planner wasn't coming from any old shop, it was coming directly from a bunch of people I had worked hard with over one Sunday afternoon back in September. It was all shot in Sainsburys and everyone was fantastic. So of course, when hanging it in between Marilyn & her framed friends I did feel proud. 



I've selected a handful of my favourite hairstyles I created that morning. 


Miss February with plenty of Victory rolls & a Boo Boo Kitty Headscarf.


The whole team.


Miss May with a bumper faux bang.


Miss July with a glamorous set & Miss November with a curly 1920s faux bob.


Backstage shot. I was definitely in the 'zone' at this moment. Inbetween hairsprays, I was able to find out a little more about the First Steps Charity. They offer support to people of all ages with any type of eating difficulty or disorder and most of the models were volunteers from the Charity!



Credit where credit is due....

Location Sainsburys
Styling Falceri Designs
Photography Rei Bennett 


If you would like to buy a Calendar, contact me. RRP £5 with all the money going to the Charity.

Who dropped the Flowerbomb?

I had spent the last few days on the East Coast visiting my boyfriend and partaking in the usual seaside fish & chip activities. On my return I found Inka sat at my dressing table next to a recent competition win from my new favourite company. A bottle of "Flowerbomb by Viktor & Rolf". She was eager I thanked the company and told you a little about them. (And photographed her, obviously) She had her mean face on her and can be quite forceful at times.


"Open it! Open it!"


'LittleBig' are the people I need to thank for my fragrance win. An online company offering what every anything your makeup bag desires, all at and I quote, "big brands, little prices". All competitions, new items and latest news conveniently pop up on your facebook newsfeed once you've given 'em a like.



 Your make up bag need never be empty ever again. 
I entered one of their Facebook competitions, came up trumps and days later Inka was barking at the postman and his LittleBig parcel.
 Competitions are posted pretty frequently, I plan on entering them all - in my opinion, a girl's dressing table can never be too full. And if I don't win any of them, I'm spending all my Christmas money there!
Oh and if what your looking for isn't on their facebook page, why not check their Amazon shop?
All links are at the bottom of the post.


Look how pretty the bottle looks on my dressing table. 


To me a good bottle = good contents. And as soon as I spray, my theory proves me right.


C'mon you, let's get dressed for walkies.

Stealin' her 'Do.


I've been working on this hairstyle for a while, getting curls and volume in the right places. I've been recreating it from a photograph I lust over nearly daily. As I work with hair as my profession, I need my barnet looking the best she can and I ain't happy until it's damn perfect! But I never put my bristle brush and Elnette down until it was finished.....and it's all down to this marvellous lady with the killer 'do....


   Love as always, Lucille xx.

The new girl.

Finally, I have found her. She came at a price, and she needs some love, but the search is over.
My beautiful Spanish head plaque!
