In Love With Fashion Sale Picks I gave up on BeautySets for a while as I just found the whole process a bit clunky, but when I discovered you could now create fashion sets I thought the latest ILWF blogger challenge was the ideal time to give it another try. The best improvement to BeautySets … Continue reading

UPDATED: Bank Holiday Beauty Blog Sale
*UPDATED* as of 31/10/13 Being the cool kid I am I’ve spent the first half of the bank holiday weekend getting our house neat and tidy. I’ve even finally tackled the mess that was my make up stash which is great news for me as I can now find everything easily and even greater news … Continue reading
MoneySupermarket #PassionForFashion2 Competition Entry

All you had to do was create three separate looks inspired by this year’s styles and trends and each look could cost no more than £200. … Continue reading
Wednesday Wishlist – The Seersucker Edition

Seersucker Hair Bow – £4.76 + shipping from Etsy 2. Striped Double Duvet Cover Set – … Continue reading
Review – L’Occitane Immortelle SPF 40 Brightening Shield
A few weeks ago we headed up to Bicester Village in Oxford to do a bit of pre-birthday/pre-wedding shopping. It was a hugely successful trip which saw me picking up bridesmaid dresses for all 4 of my awesome ladies as well as finally finding the wedding shoes of my dreams. Mikey also managed to get … Continue reading
My Honeymoon Beachwear Picks
Our wedding is fast approaching which can only mean one thing….we’ll be jetting off on Honeymoon soon. I can hardly contain my excitement and am certain I will be bouncing off the walls by the time August comes around, particularly since reading Tara’s fantastic guest post on her stay at The BodyHoliday. Being the overly … Continue reading

HealGel Face – £48 from HealGel 2. Polaroid X800E 8MP Waterproof Digital Camera – £39.99 from Amazon UK … Continue reading
January/February Empties
Last month was crazy busy and as such my blogging took a bit of a battering. Thankfully things seem to have calmed down a bit now and the only things standing in the way of me and blogging is my newly formed keep fit routine and my addiction to Ni No Kuni (36 hours in … Continue reading
Swatched – Laura Mercier Haul
So I thought it was about time I shared with you a few bits and pieces I got from Laura Mercier recently. The baked eye shadow and the kohl eye pencil were Christmas presents from Mike, which was great as I very nearly bought them whilst I was in San Francisco before Christmas. And the … Continue reading
Wednesday Wishlist – The Cath Kidston Edition*
When it comes to style I like to think I’m an eclectic mix of retro and modern which is why I’m such a fan of Cath Kidston and her modern twist on classic designs. I am obsessed with retro prints and polka dots, and have been hugely inspired by Cath Kidston prints when designing my … Continue reading
What to spend your Boots No7 Vouchers on
To be honest I’d totally forgotten I even had these bad boys until I spotted them this morning whilst tidying the kitchen. In fact if I’m totally honest they nearly ended up in the bin until I realised they’re actually valid until tomorrow. If you shop at Boots I’m almost certain you have some of … Continue reading
Swatched – Rimmel Apocalips in Luna, Celestial & Big Bang
Yesterday the much hyped Apocalips lip lacquer from Rimmel finally hit the shops. I’d intended to hold off on buying them until Friday when I get paid, but when I spotted Boots were running a 3 for 2 offer on them I thought it’d be rude not to buy a couple of them on the … Continue reading
Wednesday Wishlist – The Payday Edition
It’s Wednesday and only two more days until payday so I thought I’d show you what I’m planning to buy come Friday. 1. Blog Inc. by Joy Deangdeelert Cho – £9.98 from Amazon. I feel my blog is in a good place right now and want to make sure I keep it moving in the right … Continue reading
Swatched – MUA Pro-Base Conceal & Brighten Kit in Porcelain
You can probably tell by now that I’m super rubbish when it comes to not spending money. I had every intention of popping into Superdrug purely to pick up some much needed Lemsip during the week. Instead I left with a few new goodies from MUA and a couple of my favourite Simple cleanser which happened … Continue reading
SportPursuit – My One-Stop Shop for all things Sporty
When it comes to sports I seem to be fairly seasonal, in Summer I love nothing more than to board a boat and sail away for a while, and in the Winter all I want to do is hit the slopes. Which is why when I discovered SportPursuit I thought all my prayers were answered … Continue reading
Space NK Haul – Caudalie, Dr Brandt, Laura Mercier, Rococo & Rodial
I have to admit I’ve been pretty disappointed with the calibre of products in the January Sales this year. Naturally this didn’t stop me from buying a whole heap of goodies from Space NK. So what was in these little black boxes of joy? Ta Dah! Here’s a closer look at what I bought. I’ve … Continue reading

My Top Beauty Products of 2012
It’s hard to believe that it’s the final day of 2012, a time to reflect on the year gone by and the products that have made it great. It was hard to narrow it down to just a handful as there’s been some truly awesome products I’ve discovered this year, however with the exception of … Continue reading
Review – Perricone MD No Concealer Concealer
I’d heard such great things about the Perricone MD No Concealer Concealer but always been put off by the price. I mean let’s face it, £37 for a concealer is more than a little steep, particularly when you see the size of the bottle. However when I spotted it in Sephora for $39 I soon … Continue reading
