MAC Shiny Pretty Things Advent Calendar Having literally just scheduled a post for tomorrow saying that I’m not even touching on beauty advent calendars until November and how I’m a bit over them anyway, this arrives! And it’s fabulous. I have some post editing to do now and eating my words rather. There’s no doubt that even at £125 it will sell out really quickly (while I predict that many of the others will be reduced before November is out)…
I went away for six whole nights (I went for the days too, obviously, otherwise it would have been a logistical nightmare) and I took my little vlogging camera with me to document the trip. I’ve called the resulting video – wait for this, because it’s an absolute triumph of creativity and took all evening to come up with – Gone For Six Nights. Disclaimer: this is nothing at all like the film Gone In Sixty Seconds. I realise that both titles include…
Here’s one for those of you who wanted a more affordable take on the “floral noir” trend; a delightfully frippy little number that’s almost more lingerie than it is clothing, thanks to the pretty lace trim and tie-front. Obviously it must be balanced out with black tights and boots, to give it that cooler, harder edge, but if you’re on the hunt for something quite graphic and punchy rather than Laura Ashley pretty, this could be your bag. (Dress.) The length and…
Natural Spa Factory Sloe Down Scrub I’m a massive sloe gin fan – a dot of sloe gin with a tonic and plenty of ice is a delicious thing, as is a sloe gin liqueur while you’re bundled up next to a fire. My dad used to make his own and that’s never been bettered – I tried making my own and it was good, but not dad-good. So, you can see why I seized upon Sloe Down Scrub in…

I kid you not you guys, these hills are evvverywhere and are 100 times more beautiful in person!!! One of the most beautiful things I have ever seen in my entire life. We were on a drive on Lincoln Gap Road going from Shelburne to Warren and we passed this amazing swing hanging from a tree! We saw a home way up above it and drove up to go ask them if we could use it and then had the…
Maison Margiela Mutiny Fragrance Got to admit that Margiela is one of those brands that I certainly know the name of, but couldn’t identify a single product they’re known for or even where to locate a Margiela store. I do know that Maison Margiela used to be called Maison Martin Margiela before Martin resigned to Hermes and perhaps he is still there. John Galliano currently heads up the creative direction of the brand. Maison Margiela Mutiny Fragrance The new fragrance…
Thank you BJ’s Wholesale Club for sponsoring this post. I am not a woman who enjoys shopping. Seriously, y’all. I grew up in those days when shopping was an all-day experience. You left the house at 9am on a Saturday morning and you weren’t coming home until after lunchtime. There were no tech devices to drown my sorrows in. It was just me and my incessant whining and pleading with my Mom and wailing stuff like, “Can we pleeeeease go…
Where have I been? You might well ask. Just the small matter of a lopped-off wisdom tooth and a sewn-over gum. Who would have thought that such a small area of the body could cause such widespread havoc? I swear I can feel the throbbing in my toes during the hour that my painkillers stop working. (An hour before I’m due the next lot, the previous dose of painkillers seem to wear off – it’s like clockwork. And all of…
Just a few years ago, it was hard to find a good mineral sunscreen—let alone one with a tint! Fortunately, that’s no longer the case. Anyone who has experienced the notorious white cast from physical SPFs will be happy to know that there are now PLENTY of non-whitening, tinted alternatives. These products are also ideal if you’re looking for a little more coverage, to perhaps even replace your usual BB or CC cream, tinted moisturizer or foundation. Thanks for watching!Visit…
