As a self confessed coconut addict, I couldn't wait to give Alpro's new coconut milk a go! Armed with a cocktail shaker, a sparkly martini glass, a blender and a booklet full of yummy recipes, I was ready to try some new flavour combinations.
Fashion Monday #2 / Stylist Pick Outfit
As promised, I have a fashion post for you this Monday :) And... it is a 'proper outfit post', which means unflattering full length body shots by my husband.... I obviously included some snaps I took myself too :) I was kindly sent two pieces from www.stylistpick.com and I styled them with my own accessories etc. Let me know what you think.
New bedroom bits and decor refresh
I get bored of my home decor easily and I like changing things quite often. From a big selection of bedding to new throws and bits and bobs for the home, I spend too much time and money on it... Oooops... That's why I decided to finally say goodbye to the stripy wallpaper we had in the master bedroom (see it in THIS post) and change it to something more neutral.
All-Bran 5 Day Challenge + Giveaway
While your diet may be relatively healthy, it doesn't necessarily mean that you are getting enough fibre to maintain good digestive health. I am a healthy eater,who consumes lots of fresh fruit and veg, beans, nuts etc, but... being on a weight loss journey and reducing the size of my portions means that sometimes I can miss out on the fibre. That's why I agreed to take the All-Bran5 Day Challenge.
Joan Collins Timeless Beauty
If you are a fan of luxury makeup, you will absolutely love the Joan Collins Timeless Beauty Makeup Line. The packaging is breathtakingly beautiful and the formulas are lovely too. I have been obsessed with the small selection of products I received to try out and I now have far to many Joan Collins gems on my wish list.
Sigma Gel Liners and Liner Brushes
I am a liquid liner gal, but I quite like gel formulas too. The Sigma Beauty Gel Eye Liners* are the newest addition to my stash and as a lover of the winged liner look, I couldn't wait to try them out.
ELF makeup look: golden smokey eye & peachy lips
When it comes to makeup, I adore many high end products, but... I also love cheaper options, including some real gems from E.L.F. I especially like ordering from them , during their 50% off sales :) To create this makeup look, I used E.L.F. products only and I went for a golden smokey eye, peachy lips and glowy cheeks.
Vichy Idealia Eyes Review
I am a big fan of Vichy Idealia Life Serum* and BB Cream*, so the release of Vichy Idealia Eyes*(£23.00) got me seriously excited. I have been using the eye cream and serum for the past 4 weeks (morning and night) and my skin absolutely loves this combo!
Fashion Monday #1
Hi everyone. If you follow me on instagram, you might have seen my outfits already, but I think I am finally ready to start sharing some OOTD posts on the blog. I am not sure if the photos will be taken with my DSLR or just my phone/ipad, but I am not too fussed about it to be perfectly honest. I get my fashion inspiration via instagram every single day, so I am perfectly fine with mirror selfies. What do you think? Anyway... After the amazing response from many lovely ladies on instagram, I decided to introduce a 'Fashion Monday' feature to the blog, to mix things up a bit. I am getting fed up with writing about beauty 95% of the time and I want to branch out to other areas of blogging. Change is good, right?
Win £500 of John Lewis Vouchers in British Gas History Of Home Competition
I am not ashamed to admit that I keep almost every nostalgic item, because I find it really hard to part with things that mean something to me, or remind me of certain people, moments etc. It is just the way I am :) That's why I couldn't be more excited about giving you an opportunity to enter this fantastic competition hosted in cooperation with British Gas. The prize is absolutely amazing and the lucky winner will receive £500 worth of John Lewis vouchers! How can you enter?
Non-Beauty Favourites/ What I've Been Up To
I feature my beauty favourites on the blog almost every month, but to be perfectly honest, I have even more 'non-beauty' favourites, especially food related ones :) haha. I also very rarely include lifestyle updates, so today's blog post is a mixture of both, plus a virgin mojito recipe I promised to share :)
August Birchbox UK (review and video)
As a big fan of beauty boxes, I was very excited to open my travel themed August Birchbox* (£10.00 +P&P). I haven't seen any sneak peeks before it arrived and I didn't even expect one in the first place, so it was a total surprise :) As soon as I lifted the lid, I spotted two products I knew I will really enjoy, but the remaining two didn't disappoint either.
