Simple Chic Cunningly Clever
Twenty8twelve’s new collection offers an exciting colour range that takes you from bright orange and fuchsia to some gorgeously soft pastelly colours like old rose’ and soft ashy greys. Mix in some clever little prints and you have your must have staple items, very conveniently all in one collection.
If that is not enough and you still need some more convincing then I will just have to let the materials like the super soft Silk, Leather and Cashmere do the rest of the talking.
I’m in love with most of the collection as all items are just so elegantly simple and easy to combine but if I had to pick favourites then I would have to go for this lovely knitted jumper /dress combination and this super cute little baby doll number.

Super Bathing Oil to the Rescue
If you're feeling down and need a good pick me up, take out a half an hour of your busy day, dip yourself in this little piece of luxury bathing oil and I promise this will do just the trick!
Only good things seem to come out of morocco these days and this Moroccan Rose Otto bath oil from Ren is certainly one of them.
One small cup full of this liquid gold and your bath is transformed into one soothing and relaxing oasis using only 100% natural ingredients. The precious steam distilled Rose Otto Oil combined with uplifting geranium oil and many other beneficial ingredients moisturises your skin and leaves it feeling super soft and rosy-without the unpleasant sticky feeling afterwards.
A 110ml bottle comes to around £30.00 and while it is more of a luxury treat and it is just all too tempting to slather it all over yourself I try to use it only every other week and the lusciously dreamy smell makes it perfect to use
for a special night in or before a big girls night out!

Almighty scrumptious delicious delightfulness
Amelia Rope's chocolates offer some truly delicious combinations like Pale Lemon And Sea Salt for example or mandarin and dark coffee bean. They don't come cheap but for real chocolate lovers like me these are definitely worth the extra pennies. You can taste every little ingredient and you can tell that these are quality bars made with one very special ingredient called love!
If chocolate is not your thing this will do as a fantastic gift. What can be better than giving love, concealed in a bar of chocolate - alongside a big bunch of her favourite flowers that is of course...
To get your hands on a piece of heaven simply take a stroll down to Liberty London on Regent Street or Selfridges on Oxford Street if you're in London.
You simply must give these little pieces of heaven a try! x

Fairytale Living
As of recently I have been completely obsessed with real-estate,scouring blogs and listings on websites - all of course mostly thrown around the beautiful USA countryside who seem to offer more places with the kind of look that I’m into. I realise of course that the price that they are offered for are not anywhere near of what I can afford – at the moment - but you never know, maybe in a few years or decades time I’m sure I’ll have my own little fairy-tale cottage. Until then, this will just have to do.
It does truly look as if just it’s been snapped right out of a classic Disney flick, so homely charming and comfortable. I could see myself living there no doubt whatsoever ;)

Super Oil
Still in the wake of “coconut oil gate” from late 2011 I’m slightly cautious but nevertheless curious to try out different varieties of oils to use as a moisturiser or treatments.
Last week while exchanging some left over unwanted Christmas gifts (not a big fan of gels as moisturisers – more of a scrumptiously thick cream kind of gal – my mommy should know that really) I was introduced to a newly revamped oil treatment from Clarins.
The Clarins Face Treatment Oil contains 100 per cent pure plant extracts from only the most valuable plants like
Lotus, Blue Orchid or Sandalwood. Combined with a key ingredient that is Hazelwood oil, which contains lots of minerals, vitamins and beneficial Omega 9 fatty acids it becomes a super effective and nourishing formula that has no artificial colours, preservatives or fragrances added.

I was recommended the Lotus Face Treatment Oil for 'Combination and Oily Skin' and according to the description it “purifies, tightens pores and refines the skin texture. The Hazelnut oil; soothes and seals in moisture to prevent fine lines”. It certainly delivers and you only need to use a teensy bit so it will last you a long time. It comes with a very handy “dropper” which means that drop by drop you can control how much you take - without having anything go to waste.
Even though it is classed as a Face treatment, I like using it every night without the need for additional moisturiser. After thoroughly cleansing my face and giving it a hot wash I take around three to four drops, gently rub the formula to warm it up and apply it on face and downwards onto the neck. It makes for a nice new routine in the evening– especially when you wake up having your dull skin transformed into a super soft vision in the morning. This is a first class treatment oil and seems to really deeply penetrate and work its wonders as your skin stays super soft and smooth, even after cleansing your face in the morning, unlike so many other oils.
The treatment comes in three variations, “Santal” Oil which is for dry to extra dry, “Blue Orchid” for dehydrated skin and the “Lotus” oil for combination to oily skin. 30ml is currently priced at £29.00 per bottle.
I would love to know your thoughts on these oils, are they working just as good for you or have you got any other oils that are working better for your type of skin? Let me know! x
