Pusheen

Pusheen is the star of www.Pusheen.com. As a big cat lover I fell in love with this cute animated character when I first saw her.  I ordered this T-shirt from Hey Chicadee for $24.00 which is about £15. This shirt is super soft 50% Cotton, 50% Polyester. Also it has very lovely pink colour and features Pusheen making biscuits / kneading dough, which makes this even more girly.

March 2014 Glossybox: Beauty Blossom Edition

Today I got my Glossybox and when I first opened it I was so excited to see all these beauty products inside. Like I said, I am trying to experiment more with some new brands and I had heard of only a few in this box. This months theme is 'Get ready for spring!' and all these products go well with this season. I am very excited about Mitchell and Peach Body Cream . This moisturiser is made in Kent, England. I have heard about this brand before and I am very lucky to have a chance to try it before buying an original size. This 40ml of body cream contains honey, organic cocoa, shea butter and vitamin B5. The smell is very lovely and fresh, almost like you have taken a walk in the countryside. Full size 180ml costs £36. Dove Hair Therapy Intensive Repair 60 Second Treatment Shot is a weekly treatment for your hair. It is 15ml (£1.49) of intense care and repair. I actually like that this treatment is a sample, as I never know exactly how much is enough to use. Dove

Melissa + Campana

I found my new crush! These rubber flats look really comfortable and are just super cute. Brazilian footwear label Melissa has been producing its trademark “jelly" shoes since 1979. Manufactured by footwear giant Grendene, which is the world’s largest manufacturer of sandals, they have become one of the country’s most successful and best-loved brands. To celebrate their 25th birthday, Melissa approached Brazilian design duo Fernando and Humberto Campana to create a new range of shoes and bags in their signature style. They had already used the technique, which they call “zigzag", to create a range of furniture items, such as chairs, stools and screens, with loosely-woven seats backs and surfaces. The same process seemed appropriate to mould “jelly" shoes, since the resulting fabric has numerous gaps that would allow air to circulate around the feet.   They have created 6 amazing styles for Melissa. You can get them in different colours as well!

Spring Giveaway!

This month I decided I would do a Spring giveaway, as I mentioned in an earlier post. I've been receiving many beauty boxes and each time there has always been one or two things I didn't really need myself, so I thought the best thing to do would to be to pass on these beauty products to my readers. I will start with Percy & Reed No-Fuss Flawlessness Dry Conditioner. It is full size (150ml) product. Give your hair healthy softness and shine. This fabulous conditioning formula reduces damage caused by brushing as well as adding gorgeous, glossy shine to even very dry hair. Second one is Inner Me Beautify Me Vitamin Complex . These are beauty supplements for skin, hair and nails. This vitamin complex has 28 capsules. Two capsules to be taken daily with or after a meal, so it will be a 2 week supply. These capsules contain vitamin C and the trace minerals selenium and zinc. I also had a huge wardrobe clear out and found this amazing Esprit dress . It is a lov

Love Me Beauty - March box

My box for March is Edition 3. I was thinking to skip this month but when I checked and saw what they were offering this month, I was very tempted and made an order. This Love Me Beauty box had a really good selection of 6 products.  The Vintage Cosmetic Company False Lashes in 'Gracie' - Full size, RRP £6. I am starting with these, as I never wear false lashes and can't add any positive or negative comment about this product. What I can say though is that on the weekend I will try to do my first giveaway, and these lashes will definitely be included with a few other things! Deep Steep Foot Stick in 'Candy Mint' - Full size (15ml), RRP £3.60 . This foot stick contains powerful essential oils of organic Shea and Cocoa Butters. I absolutely love products for feet. After a long day at work or walking it is just so good to give your feet a little treatment. You can apply it on the heels and cuticles or for the full treatment it can be applied to the entire

Elizabeth Arden and Elle

Last month I subscribed to Elle UK magazine. Everybody who subscribed got a free Elizabeth Arden gift - 12 issues was just £18 and the gift worth £65. Eight Hour Cream Skin Protectant contains super emollients and vitamin E, which are really good for restoring, calming and renewing skin. It helps to soothe dry hands, minor burns or sunburn and cracked lips. Basically, you can apply it anywhere your skin needs protecting and moisturizing. It also helps to smooth cuticles and nails. I am already in love with the product. I have very dry and cracked skin, especially in windy weather. Beautiful Colour Lash Enhancing Mascara is a multi-dimensional mascara, which immediately volumises, lengthens and curls lashes. I am big Max Factor mascara fan but of course I am very excited to try this one out too. Beautiful Colour Moisturizing Lipstick - Red Door Red 02 might be a bit too dark for me. I have always been afraid of red lipsticks as they draw so much attention, but at the same time I

Black, grey and white

Finally, Spring has arrived in Manchester and I had the chance to wear something lighter than my parka. I already mentioned this tweed coat in the last post I made about my Sheinside order. When it first arrived I was a bit disappointed. I ordered a size S, though I should probably have gone with a size bigger as it looked more like a blazer/cardigan on me. It has 3/4 sleeves and is made from a very light material. Now after wearing it outside I've realised it is definitely something I need in this kind of weather. Bag is Lorbac which is actually quite vintage, as it was given to me by my mum. I've loved this bag since I was little. It is a cute, small size. I love black leather bags. The scarf I am wearing is also my mums -   this is my favourite scarf. I like the simple grey colour and curtain-like material. Please don't mind my hair colour, I am trying to grow this dark dye out. And a little note - it was very windy today near the canal, so my hair is going everywher

High End vs High Street

The Simone Rocha Autumn/Winter 2014 Ready To Wear Collection was one of my favourites at London Fashion Week. Searching through Next, I found this skirt which is very similar to Simone's. Beautiful texture and I am completely in love in this whole check netting detail idea.  My two favourites from Simone Rocha's Collection. I like this pink version too!  Skirt from Next . Price £48, most of the small sizes are sold out.
