TMCM Ireland – 2015’s Year in Fashion
Post by CM It’s New Year’s Eve and time to reflect. What better way than to share with you our favourite posts of 2015 as we get ready for bigger and better things in the New Year! January 2015 was the year when ‘old’ got cool. Charlotte Rampling fronted a NARS Campaign (and starred in possible […]
MoreMorning after the night before Christmas
Post by CM ‘Tis the season to be jolly, and a lot of days and nights have been merry and not very bright this Advent. With Christmas being at the tail end of the month, and festive drinks beginning for a great many bang on December 1st, by the time the big day rolls around too […]
MoreHair Today
Post by CM I have hair on the brain. Not literally, there’s skull and scalp inbetween, but I’ve been thinking about hair obsessively since yesterday, when I did a home dye job over already coloured hair and my roots came out a different colour from the rest of my barnet. Want to see a pic? […]
MoreA Spot of Bother
Post by CM It’s been a while since we did a Beauty post, but a recent event has been staring me in the face for the past month so I thought I’d share my woes. I got my first spot breakout just before my Confirmation, at the age of 12. In all the photos I […]
MoreMax Factor Gel Shine Lacquer – Review
Post by CM Last Thursday I reviewed Max Factor Skin Luminizer Foundation, and my verdict was mixed. Lovely for perfect skinned girls, trickier for those of us who struggle with the old epidermis, but with a bit of effort it can fulfill its luminating destiny. Luckily something most people can enjoy is a nice nail decoration; […]
MoreMax Factor Skin Luminizer Foundation – Review
Post by CM I’m not much of a nail varnish person, preferring a natural, jaggedy edged look. Just ask TM; she’s forever trying to get me to sort out my nails. It’s not that they’ve been bitten to the quick or are monstrously long, it’s just that I tend to neglect them in favour of […]
MoreG-G-G Galway!
Post by CM I once did a “What age are you really?” quiz online and got 64. It’s widely known that I can’t wait to be retired and a lunching lady of leisure – it may well be that my biggest ambition is to be a cantankerous old woman. So it was with glee that I realised […]
MoreFresh as Daisies
Post by CM Last weekend I was improbably, but pleasantly surprised to be introduced to 1960s Czechosolvakian New Wave Cinema and now I’m going to tell you all about at. And you’ll like it. No really, you will! Daisies is an ambitious and surrealist response to the regime of the era, starring two amateur actresses (let’s […]
MoreA New Aspiration
Post by CM Fashion advertisements are different from others in that most of the time they feature beautiful people from the silver screen or the runway looking 100 times more beautiful than humanly possible, or by throwing an eye-catching curve-ball at you with their creative chutzpa. For all the overly air-brushed beauty campaigns, making us […]
