Monsoon Rose Gold perfume.


The house of Monsoon with their new fragrance celebrates rose flower and launches Rose Gold which will delight all fans of intoxicating floral fragrances supported with warm, comfortable notes. Fragrance Rose Gold exudes glamour and femininity. Luminous opening scent is created of lemon notes, juicy fruit, illuminating floral harmony in the heart of velvety roses, tuberose, neroli and cyclamen. Warmth originates from musk, woody notes, vanilla and amber, intertwining with shades of moss. Exude glamour with the Monsoon Rose Gold Eau De Parfum. 

Top notes of sparkling lemon, soft fruit and ozonic scents are layered with velvety rose, tuberose, neroli and cyclamen, and underpinned with base notes of Eastern woods, vanilla, mosses, musk and balsamic amber. 

I love the scent of this fragrance, it's lovely and delicate, a lingering sexy mist, the scent lasts a good 8-10 hours on me, but I can still smell on my clothes the morning after, the scent is beautiful. Perfect for spring/summer. I imagine this would make a gorgeous wedding fragrance as it just has something lovely and romantic about it.

Available in three sizes - 30ml, 50ml and 100ml - prices start from £24.00

Barry M Pastel nails


The latest nail trend to hit the shelves are Barry M's Textured Polishes. They're just like regular creme polishes filled with tiny 'Gritty' bits, to give a bumpy feel and are a matte finish.


They apply like a dream and are fast drying. Also easily Removed. I was slightly concerned they'd be a nightmare to take off as the glitter polishes, but they swipe off very easily with nail polish remover.




This is Ridley Road, a lovely bright Mint colour, perfect for Spring on Fingers & Toes.







This is probably my favourite of the four, It's a very creamy pastel pink called Kingsland Road, very pretty for Spring & would look great with a tan in Summer.




Station Road is a yellow polish, It's very bright and just not a colour that I can wear with my skin tone as I'm too pale, so this would have to be my least favourite, but it is a lovely yellow as some can look almost dirty.





Atlantic Road, Is a gorgeous powdery pastel blue which i think would suit any skin tone perfectly.


I think this collection is a great one to have for Spring & Summer is has a perfect mix of shades to suit everyone, the only thing i would of changed was maybe add a lilac shade?

Bags of Neon Love!

I was browsing on ASOS this week when i came across a bag from River Island, I instantly fell in Love, but as I've been on a spending ban i closed the page down & went on with my business, but i just couldn't get it out of my head, i was imagining the outfits I'd wear with it & occasions I'd where it too! Later that evening i went back on to ASOS, made a sad face to my Hubbie & showed him the bag..... I waited & then he said OK! (What a Sweetheart!) he'd buy it for me TaDahhh! Within seconds my ninja fingers had put it into my basket & checked out before he could change his mind!
It arrived this Morning......
