On January the 1st, I celebrated 10 years of The Sunday Girl so although this post is a tad late, it is only fitting that I hit publish on a Sunday.

Initially this site was set up as a joke. My sister was staying over and I was waiting up to purchase the Nicki Minaj Pink Friday lipstick...what a throwback that is! I was working on a beauty counter back then, as such not only was I blowing all my wages on cosmetics but boring everyone near and dear with my constant chatter of new beauty products. I think at one point I even attempted to memorise every shade of MAC lipstick...what a sad little life you lead Jane.

Whilst watching Two and a Half Men and eating cheap, takeaway pizza (this post is highly scented by the delicate pong of nostalgia), my sister floated the idea of creating my own beauty blog. Admittedly I had no idea what that was nor how to really go about it but after a few google searches later, the very first incantation of The Sunday Girl was live. To say it was rough around the edges is an understatement; in fact it wasn?t even called ?The Sunday Girl?, instead ?The Crazy Bitch Beauty Gazette?- so professional and absolutely a play on a line from said, earlier mentioned Two and a Half Guys episode.
I later changed the name to Adrienne Adores after some gently persuasion from a PR (turns out brands don?t want to work with a blog that?s got the word ?bitch? in the title...who knew) before settling on The Sunday Girl and as they say the rest is hist...
