Exfoliating Toners: Clarins Gentle Exfoliator and REN Clarifying Toning Lotion Review


I couldn't be more excited to write this post! The products I am about to review made a massive difference to my skin and I have never experienced such a dramatic change! I am sure that you are familiar with some exfoliating toners, especially the "hard to get" Biologique Recherche Lotion P50 or Pixi Glow Tonic. I wish I could purchase them easily, but to be honest... I am not so determined to get my hands on them anymore and I am happy with my current toner routine. My skin has been transformed, thanks to REN Clarifying Toning Lotion and Clarins Gentle Exfoliator.

Elegant summer outfit - designer edition



I love a mixture of white and yellow in an outfit, so I decided to put together something extremely elegant and summer appropriate, based around the gorgeous Alexander Lewis Cut Out Dress.

Bonbi Forest Antlers Necklace



You might have seen this beautiful necklace on my instagram, but I really wanted to share more photos of it on the blog. I actually took some outfit photos, but they came out blurry :( I wish I had time to retake them, but with a hyper toddler glued to me all day, it isn't as easy as it sounds :)

I was kindly sent this gorgeous necklace from Bonbi Forest and I absolutely love it! It features two gold plated deer antler shapes, with a dark semi precious Amethyst gemstone in the middle. The chain and lobster clasp are gold plated and there is a cute little Bonbi Forest tag and a gold star attached to the extender chain. So pretty!

Macadamia Haircare Maintenance Set


I adore Macadamia's Deep Repair Masque, so I was very excited to try more products from their haircare range. I was kindly sent this beautiful Haircare Maintenance Set* in May, but when I was moving house, I placed it in one my storage boxes and totally forgot about it. I finally got a chance to try out all the products last week and I am in love! 

Ted Baker Pretties: Bow Wash Bag and Flip Flops


I was recently offered a chance to pick a couple of items from Surfdome to feature on the blog and as soon as I noticed that they stock Ted Baker accessories, I knew exactly what I was going to choose :) I was planning to purchase the wash bag and flip flops anyway (for my holidays), so it seemed like a perfect opportunity.

My neon wishlist

I adore the look of neons and brights for summer and I am slowly injecting more colour into my wardrobe. Most of the clothes I wear are black and grey, but I like to buy colourful pieces too. As long as the shape of a dress, jacket or top is right for me, I am happy to wear yellow, pink or bright green.

bareMinerals Marvelous Moxie Collection review and giveaway


I adore bareMinerals makeup, so I was super excited to try out their new range of Marvelous Moxie lip products.
I was kindly sent a lipstick in shade Fly High, a lipgloss in shade Sparkplug and a lip liner in shade Empowered.
I also have the exact same products to giveaway to one of my lucky readers :)

Home decor: adding a nautical touch


I am still adding finishing touches to our new house and it seems to be a never-ending task :)
When I was asked to choose a product from Not On The High Street , I was instantly drawn to the home & garden category.I was looking for something nautical themed and I fell in love this gorgeous set of four beach hut boxes.
I had my heart set on it, even though, I had to wait a couple of weeks for it to be back in stock. They must be pretty popular. I was planning to place them in the bathroom, but... they ended up in the living room, on the bottom shelf of an alcove. This way, I can admire them all day.
