August 2014 Birchbox, First Impressions
I’m glad I’ve managed to get this post up quicker this month. My third Birchbox arrived last week and I’ve had enough time to have a try of all the products, so here are my first impressions of the contents. This months theme is Away We Go, and unfortunately, I’ll have to say I wasn’t as thrilled with my contents this month. Maybe it’s because I didn’t recognise any of the brands, or maybe it’s because the product selection just didn’t appeal. Whatever it was, only one of the products really grabbed me. But I guess that’s just the luck of the draw. The novelty of getting a beauty box…

Shopping Spotlight – Culture Vulture
Zinc Glass Frames* RRP £9.99, Culture Vulture Direct Kuthira Hanging Frames* RRP £19.99, Culture Vulture Direct One of my favourite things about owning my own home is the fact I get to decide what goes on my walls. No posters of bands i’ve never heard of, no photos of kids I’m not related to, just things that are relevant to me and my princess. All my walls in my house are cream giving a nice blank canvas so I really have taken liberties in covering the walls. Although I have canvases and quotes, my favourite things to hang up are photos. I think that’s because it was what covered…

Chatterbox Walls Review
“Remember When…” A4 Print* RRP £14.99, Chatterbox Walls One of my favourite parts of personalising a home is choosing what will be adorning the walls. I won’t lie, being a blogger has been brilliant this time around as I’ve been lucky enough to review products that I have dearly loved and happily put up around my home. So of course when Chatterbox Walls contacted me to ask if I wanted to review a product from their wide selection, I instantly agreed. Chatterbox Walls is a company that specialises in personalised wall art of the text variety. I was pretty excited as I had a few similar pieces favourited…

Summer Favourites
LINKS HAVE BEEN REMOVED AS ITEMS NO LONGER FOR SALE If you’ve been following this blog for a while you know every season I put together a little selection of my favourites. Sometimes it includes things other than all beauty products, however this month is not the case! So here we have a selection of products I’ve been loving for my skin, hair & body. In the summer I tend to ditch make up maybe 5 out of 7 days a week so there aren’t any make up products I’ve really been favoring at the moment, and to be honest, my skin looks so much better for it! From the…

The Glitterati with Crown & Glory August 2014
I’m sure from my last few outfit posts, you’ve been able to establish the fact, I love a piece of Crown & Glory headwear. I first heard of Crown & Glory, oh years ago, back in the days of Livejournal when Sophie sold her beautiful hair gear on a little community known as ThriftstoreUK. I met a lot of bloggers on there, back when we were all happless teens! Anyway, I have followed her progress over the years and built up a lovely collection of bits. Sophie was even kind enough to donate a mystery box to #lincsblogmeet along with some discount codes (I’ve used mine to purchase a Whole…

The Fragrance Shop Discovery Club Spring Quarter, First Impressions
ALL LINKS HAVE BEEN REMOVED AS ITEM NO LONGER AVAILABLE This is a long time coming. I have been over the past month and a half I have been slowly going through my #lincsblogmeet goody bag and sampling everything that would be suitable for me. A lot of it was skincare which requires a fair amount of time to try out (at least six weeks with my skin) but other things, like this Discovery Club box could have been reviewed earlier. Anyway, what I’m trying to say is, I’m lame but at least now I have tried the female perfumes a few times and my…
