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

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
March Empties
I have to say after last month’s mammoth empties post I thought this month’s would be a rather short but sweet affair. How wrong I was! Here’s what I’ve used up this month. Forlle’d Hyalogy P-Effect Clearance Cleansing and Re-Purerance Wash* When an ad for Forlle’d popped up on my Facebook feed I just knew it … 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.

Being the overly … Continue reading

Dove Compressed Deodorant* – Do all good things come in small packages?
I have to level with you and say I hardly ever buy aerosol sprays as I’m always conscious of their impact on the environment, but when Bzzagent offered me the chance to try out the new Dove Compressed deodorant for free I was happy to give it a try. At half the size of the standard Dove … 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 – 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
Topshop Sale Haul – Steam Cream, Meadham Kirchhoff Nail Rocks & a rather nutty necklace
So…. I know I was meant to be saving til payday but I just couldn’t help myself when I spotted these goodies in Topshop. I’ve wanted to try SteamCream for a while but have always been put off by the price, particularly when I was really buying it for the pretty tin. At £3 though … 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
Sephora Haul – Caudalie Beauty Elixir and Divine Oil
I’ve had my eye on the Caudalie Beauty Elixir and Divine Oil for a while now but always assumed they were super expensive so didn’t go out of my way to buy them. This all changed whilst I was in the States last week. It’s no secret that Sephora is one of my favourite stateside … Continue reading

US Wishlist #2 – I want candy!
This time next week I’ll be on my way to San Francisco. That in itself is pretty exciting, as San Francisco is my favourite place in the States, but it also means a long overdue opportunity to shop and grab the things I can’t get back here in England. My first wish list showed you my … Continue reading

Review/Reveal – Selfridges Lucky Bag
Today I had every intention of heading to my meeting in London and then heading home to work from the comfort of my sofa. All this changed however when I received a text telling me my Selfridges Lucky Bag had been delivered to the office. It would be sacrilege to leave my lucky bag waiting in … Continue reading
Review – Nivea Express Hydration Primer
I like to think I’m fairly immune to advertising, but when the advert for Nivea Express Hydration Primer appeared on my TV I just knew I had to have it. And when I then discovered it was just £3.99 (RRP. £4.99) in Superdrug, I just knew it was meant to be! But was it worth … Continue reading
