Princess Grace of Monaco Inspired Hair with Glitzy Secrets
Garland of Pearls Head Band* £26, Glitzy Secrets Firstly, please ignore my huge nose and bumpy skin. Secondly, how bloody beautiful is this hairband? I love pretty things for my hair, which is why I post a lot of outfit posts featuring floral crowns! Anyway, this one comes from Glitzy Secrets, a lovely website that specialises in beautiful hair pieces and jewellery. Their target audience appears to be brides (and why the hell not? I’d LOVE to wear something on my wedding day from Glitzy Secrets!) however I was contacted and asked if I’d like to review something on the back of the new Grace of Monaco movie starting Nicole…

What’s On Your Face? Update
ALL LINKS HAVE BEEN REMOVED AS ITEMS NO LONGER FOR SALE Last year I shared what skincare I used on my face, it was quite a popular post so I figured it was time to share an updated version with you all, with the products I now swear by. As I read last years post, I’m surprised at how few products I still use! I guess that’s what happens when you read beauty blogs! Everyone ends up being an enabler and my dressing table is a lot more cluttered these days! I also always have a wishlist of new products I want to try. 2014 has definitely been the year…

Bonmarche Summer 2014 Swimsuit Review
The other week I was contacted by Bonmarche, they offered me the chance to review something from their current summer range. Although I’m not going abroad to somewhere where I will need to wear a swimsuit until April, I’m always on the look out for bits and pieces to put away, as the shops will still be stocked with winter wear when I’m on the hunt for shorts and t-shirts! So of course, the chance to review a swimsuit did seem inciting and after a quick browse I saw the perfect one for my first hot holiday post baby. Black Spot Print Detail Swimdress* £22, Bonmarche The lovely people at…

Brand of the Month – Disney Couture
I’ve been wanting to do this particular brand as a Brand of the Month for a while now, but I couldn’t decide between having it as simply Disney Couture or Disney as a whole. However, after having a look around my house, I decided doing Disney as a whole would be a massive post, so instead i’ve gone for a rather big post about Disney Couture instead. I have been a long standing fan of Disney Couture now since the brand was available to buy in the UK. Over the years I’ve managed to build up a nice collection of 9 pieces and I have to admit they’re definitely the…

MAC Alluring Aquatic Goddess of the Sea Lipstick Review
When I was at the airport last month I had kept some money aside for some beauty treats in Duty Free. I ended up buying myself Marc Jacobs Daisy Delight, a MAC concealer and this lipstick as I knew it was sold out everywhere and the packaging is just beautiful. I also bought my best friend Bee another of the lipsticks from the Alluring Aquatic collection. The first thing you can see from the photos is that the Alluring Aquatic collection by MAC doesn’t have the usual black packaging, instead it’s this gorgeous turquoise colour and appears to be covered in droplets. I have to admit that after seeing that…

Firmoo Prescription Lense Sunglasses Review
For someone who didn’t wear glasses until 16, my eye sight is getting progressively worse with each year that passes. I know in a few years time I will be like my sister and need to wear my glasses (or contacts in her case) constantly. One of my biggest gripes with wearing my glasses happens in the summer, it’s the glare from the sun. I hate when I can see it in my lenses which is why when Firmoo offered me a pair of sunglasses (or glasses) to review, I was pretty excited as I’d known from other blogger reviews that I’d be able to get them fixed with my…
