My baby just cares for Me



How I love this song! I absolutely forgot about it for years, probably even a good decade!
My parents would always play old Jazz, Blues and Rock music at the weekends and this one is
especially close to my heart as I got my name from the glorious Nina Simone! I very dearly remember this
song being played ever so often and my little sister and I would run around the house all dressed up in fancy dresses with pumps "borrowed" from my mums closet...

Only yesterday a woman was playing it on the undeground and it literally made my day.

The good old times eh?

Bring on the Bling

Take a look at this uber-glam black and gold crystal clutch from world famous
Butler & Wilson. It features real Swarovski crystals and is the perfect addition for
your next night about town. It also comes with a super handy shoulder
chain should you happen to get your hands full later on during the night...

Treasure Hunting Volume I ASOS


 


 

Look at that two toned collarless leather jacket from ASOS, it's absolutely to die for and I've always
been a big fan of the "oversized boyfriend shirt-dress" look - for those who can actually pull it off.... It's a great basic piece and can be easily styled up or down to whatever suits you most.

You can find those four super gorg looks here at ASOS

I'm going coconuts!

Why spend hundreds of pounds on expensive designer hair care when you can save a fortune opting for these super amazing hair savers!? The Pure Coconut Oil range from Inecto is not only super affordable and will leave your hair with a delicious hint of coconut, super smooth and moisturized!  For around £2.00 each for a 500ml Shampoo and Conditioner bottle it’s not only cheaper than a cup of coffee but is an absolute no-brainer! It’ll last you at least a good month if you like in my case use it every to every other day and won’t leave a big regrettable hole in your wallet! 

I don’t think say Boots or Superdrug actually stock this brand, have never seen it there myself so if you do, please let me know but for now you can get them at most Savers shops and at all good pharmacies - not all stock the whole range so keep an eye out at your next shopping trip! x

Some Pressure this is!

Saying that I might be the biggest Swedish House Mafia fan out there would probably be taking it a little far - it's true but I wouldn't exactly go as far as getting their faces tattooed on any part of my body :O BUT anyone that knows me would at some point have seen the big smile that crops up on my face the second you mention or play them... Think whatever you want, I don't care, I loooooooove them and if you're willing to play them for me I will love you too and be eternally grateful! I have been an avid follower for years and never miss a dates anyone of them is in town and thanks to their latest gig at Alexandra Palace I now am a big fan of one Alesso too!


AMAAAAAAAAAAAAAZING

Oh my sweet hand-saviour!

This is one for all us hard working ladies out there. The Almond Milk Beeswax Hand Crème from Burt’s Bees is of a super sweet smelling and creamy thick texture and leaves not only your hands but any rough area soft and moisturized within seconds.

Almond Milk Beeswax Hand Creme - Hand Cream - Burt's Bees
For your everyday usage you only need to rub a teensy bit in and you’ll be good to go for hours.
To achieve a deeper penetration what I like to do is apply a little bit more of the crème, just before bedtime, then put on some gloves and leave it to sink in during the night. That way not only my hands but also the cuticles will be well moisturized and I’m ready to fight whatever comes my way the next day J
Another added bonus is that it is a 100% natural, no added synthetic preservatives, nothing artificial and for around £9.00 it’s one bargain that is not to be missed!
