Review: GOSH Velvet Touch Lipstick - Delicious

On one of my recent drug store browsing sessions in Superdrug this lovey lipstick caught my eye on the GOSH stand. I have such a weakness for lipsticks, you've probably already gathered that, but I love how a simple lipstick can just transform your look. I really liked the dusty Rose & Berry look of the Delicious shade & thought on me it'd be a good everyday neutral adding a little bit of warmth to my complexion.

#ComeDanceWithThree: A fun evening of Flamenco and Tapas with Three Mobile Feel at Home*

I love trying new things and meeting new people so when Three Mobile invited me along to a night of Flamenco dancing and Tapas to celebrate the launch of Three Mobile's Feel at Home service in Spain, it was an instant yes from me and I took my friend and photographer Gerrod Charles along with me.

Today I'm Wearing

I'm not very good at handling the cold so you'll often find me wrapped up in Winter with a bobble hat, scarf gloves & my trusty Uggs. While I love all of those things I've been keen to mix it up a little with my keep warm accessories so today I thought I'd bring you some of my new Winter staples. 

Review: Lush Tisty Tosty Rose Bath Bomb

Lush's Tisty Tosty bath bomb is said to be based on a medieval love potion, so what better pampering treat with Valentine's day just around the corner. 

Review: Tom Ford Lips and Boys Lipstick Collection - Giacomo

There is something very special about the Tom Ford beauty collection, it's just so glam and luxurious. I'd heard about Tom Ford's Lips and Boys collection; 50 limited edition clutch size lipsticks named after the characters in Tom Ford's life which is available in the UK exclusive to Selfridges, so of course I went to have a little browse in Selfridges and again those two little words 'limited edition' worked their magic and I ended up taking Giacomo home, just to clarify the lipstick and not a man.

Review: Real Techniques Bold Metals Collection - Flat Contour Brush

For a good while now, excitement has been building about the launch of the Bold Metals Collection from Real Techniques. Having seen snippets of the stunning collection on Instagram, I couldn't wait for the collection to be available to purchase. I found out that the Real Techniques Chapman sisters; Sam and Nic of pixiwoo would be at Boots in Oxford Street to launch the Bold Metal collection so I rushed out of work at 5 on the dot to go meet them and get my very own piece of the the Bold Metal collection before it all sold out.

Today I'm Wearing

I'm going to confess, lately I have a bit of a thing for animal print and when I saw this woollen animal print coat in H&M I instantly loved it, so it came home with me.

Review: Jardin de Chanel Blush Camelia Rose

I was recently having a little browse around the make up counters when this beautiful Chanel blusher caught my eye. The make up artist informed me that the Chanel Spring 2015 Collection Reverie Parisienne  had just launched in store & the Jardin de Chanel Camelia Rose Blush was a limited addition blush. Ah 'limited edition' the two words I find oh so hard to resist and on this occasion I did the very opposite of resist & as it was payday so I thought I'd treat myself. 

Review: House of Fraser Linea Moroccan Rose Diffuser & Votive Set

One of my big 2015 goals is to make my home more of a home & calming space which has meant instigating a huge decluttering project & I'm very happy to report that a lot of progress has been made. As part of this I've also been making changes to the furniture, opting for a fresher white shabby chic look which has created space with clever storage solutions and to complement this look I've been carefully selecting a few home decor pieces. So the timing couldn't have been better when I recently received a lovely Moroccan Rose Diffuser and Votive set* from the Linea Home Ware range at House of Fraser, with everything in the set fitting in perfectly with the new look of my room.

OM Yoga - Wake up Happy

                  

These Winter months, especially January are always the toughest months of the year for me. Like many I really find the dark, cold and rainy mornings difficult and it's always a struggle to get out of bed. I'm really not a morning person through Winter so the 'Wake up Happy' article in the January/February issue of Om Yoga magazine, definitely caught my attention and came at just the right time for me. 

January Favourites

Happy February everyone! January has been a bit of a tough month and like many I'm happy that it's over but there have been some lovely things along the way, including of course the world of beauty products so here are my January favourites.
