Neal & Wolf Summer Solstice Gift Set Review
LINKS HAVE BEEN REMOVED AS ITEMS NO LONGER AVAILABLE FROM SOURCE For well over two years now I have been a cheerleader for Neal & Wolf. Every since product I’ve ever tried has had me smitten. So obviously when I was offered a chance to review a new gift set, I was excited. Especially when it contained a new product, Control their flexible styling hairspray! The gift set in question is the Summer Solstice Trio* RRP £26, which contains not only Control, but Harmony the intensive care treatment (review here) and Ritual the daily cleansing shampoo (review here). The trio claims to “banish frizz this summer” something as always, I’m…

Paul Mitchell “The Gift of Style” Event
Last night I was lucky enough to attend another Paul Mitchell event. I went to one back in May, and it was actually one of my favourite blogger events to date. So on hearing of another one, I jumped at the chance. Since my original event, I have been a Paul Mitchell convert and I swear by the Dry Wash for ensure I don’t need to wash my hair more than twice a week, it’s a godsend! Once again the event was held at one of Newcastle’s Gary Hedley Salons but unfortunately this time Gary couldn’t be there so I was thankful to have met him last time. However the…

Summer Travel Planning, Part 3 – Packing The Wash & Make Up Bags
With 8 days to go, we’re up to the packing! I leave very early next Tuesday morning which gives me just over a week to make sure I have everything. For the past month things have just been thrown into the open suitcase onto my bedroom floor, but last night I sat down with my lists and filled up my toiletry and make up bags, making them ready to blog about today. It will be a few more days yet before I put my clothes in the case to avoid creases but with everything thrown in last night and a quick weigh, I am well under my limit. Success! Like…

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…

Paul Mitchell Neuro Styling Event in Newcastle
So yesterday I was kindly invited to one of the Gary Hedley Salons for the Paul Mitchell Intelligent Styling Event. I haven’t been to an actual even since last year and so far only two blog meets so needless to say, I was excited. I met up with a few other bloggers at the entrance to Eldon Square before we all nervously headed down to the salon, not really knowing what to expect. It was a really intimate event and we were welcomed warmly. Instantly supplied with drinks and offered canapes. There were a few bloggers there I recognised but we were surrounded by stylists and models so it was…

Keeping Red Hair Red
ALL LINKS REMOVED AS ITEMS NO LONGER AVAILABLE So today I’ve decided to share with you what products I use on my (dyed) red hair. My hair has been this colour for five months now and I can’t see me being any colour other for a good while. Prior to going red, I had the ombre look, and although I did love it, the two boxes of hair dye a month was pretty expensive (two as I have to dye my hair brown first due to being naturally blonde). The hair dye I used I had bought back in May when I dyed my hair really dark brown for the…
