Travel Diary: Night Out in Valencia - Loco Club

Being a huge lover of music and avid goer of gigs and festivals, I was over the moon when we managed to fit in time to go to a club that had a live band!

As we neared we could hear a few guitar chords eminating from the club...

The fact that the doors leading to the club had "Rock and Roll All Nite" splashed over them gave me hope that the music would be my kind of stuff!





The venue walls were lined with Vinyl Records and there was a small shrine dedicated to Rock and Roll!










The decor of the place and the atmosphere perfectly matched the sound of the band; fun and loud!
Despite the music being in Spanish, soft rock transcends language and I really enjoyed the music!

Often it's the atmosphere and company that makes a night a good one and fortunately both were excellent at Loco Club!

I've searching for a place similar to this is England but I haven't seen anything comparable!
Let me know if you know anywhere similar!

Clubbing or Party Make-up...

So as promised in my last post, here's the look I wore to a bar and a club, which would be perfect for any upcoming parties or a night out for freshers week!

I started off with my eyes...

I put the shade Silk from the W7 in the buff palette all over the lid and then used a darker shade called Wave in the crease. After taking a few minutes to blend out Wave and rid myself of any harsh lines, I took the Soap and Glory Supercat eyeliner pen and lined my eyes with a thick cat eye flick. I finished off the eyes by curling my lashes and using two coats of the Elizabeth Arden Mascara in Black.

Unfortunately this is the only close
up of my make-up from the night!

Next I focused on my skin. I started by using the Mac Studio Sculpt Foundation in NC20 all over my face. I then mixed the foundation with the Mac concealer in NC35 and used this under my eyes to conceal the dark circles. Using some translucent powder I set everything in place. Next I put the bronzer from the  Naked flushed palette just underneath my barely existent cheekbones and then the MUA highlighter on the tops of my cheekbones to contour. To finish off I used the MUA lipstick in Shade 1, a deep dark red, to cover my lips...

Anyone else excited for all the freshers events?!

Travel Diary: Night out in Valencia - Hawaika

One of the things we really liked about Valencia when we were in the process of decided where to go, was the nightlife!

We'd all been out in town and at parties of all kinda at home, so we were on the hunt for unusual bars and clubs that we don't get in England and we really hit the jackpot in Valencia!

When we found Hawaika on TripAdvisor, we were instantly excited! As all of us enjoy cocktails we thought this was the place to go!

(A post on clubbing/party make-up and outfit worn here coming very soon!)

When we walked into Hawaika, leis were bestowed upon us...















We were given a drinks list and the variety was astounding!
(I ordered the delicious Crepuscul del Amor)

Our drinks were brought to us by a hula girl, who set them down and poured dry ice into pockets in the elaborately decorated glasses. The whole experience was fabulous!
It was only made better by being given enormous straws to drink them with...

The whole experience from the decor of the bar, the hospitality of the hula girls, the way the drinks were presented, the music and the atmosphere was first class!
