Lusting After Coconut Lane Luxe

If you haven't yet stumbled across Coconut Lane, where have you been? I've been getting goo-goo eyes looking at their stock, and I make a mental wishlist every time I browse the website. As if all of the current sprinkles, unicorns, glitter and pineapples weren't enough, Coconut Lane have officially launched a new LUXE range, and the first few items from the range are available to buy now (and you can use my discount code BBB20 for 20% off)!

An Easter gift guide without the calories

Easter is drawing closer, and with Easter comes chocolate. Lots and lots of chocolate. We find ourselves surrounded by chocolate eggs, and chocolate bunnies, and chocolate everything. So what do we treat ourselves, or others, to when we inevitably get sick of eating chocolate? (Okay, I'm totally lying about getting sick of chocolate, but let's pretend.) Here are eight cute gift ideas that work perfectly...

A Lush Spring Goodie Bag and Haul

You may have seen that recently I was lucky enough to attend a blogger event at the York Lush store, where not only were we lucky enough to view the new Spring range in action with some fab demonstrations, but we also had the chance to win prizes. And as if that wasn't enough, each blogger was lucky enough to take home a goodie bag with four spectacular products, so today I'm gonna talk you though everything I brought home with me that night, from my incredible freebies to my impulse buys.

Unicorns, Doughnuts and Sparkles: A Coconut Lane Wishlist

A company that responds with "Think unicorns, mermaids and Mean Girls, add a touch of marble, a sprinkle of glitter and a pineapple on top" when asked to describe what they sell is definitely a company that is set to go down a storm amongst bloggers, right?

So imagine my delight when I stumbled across the company that did exactly that. Say bonjour, hola and hello to the wonderfully cute Coconut Lane! Pretty delightful, right? So then imagine my further delight when they offered to give me my very own discount code for my faaabulous followers and readers to use (yes, that's you guys!).

Stepping into Spring with the Lush York blogger event

Once again, Spring is upon us, and with Spring comes a new range of wonderfully colourful Lush products. The store in York took this as an opportunity to have their very first blogger event to which a few lucky bloggers were invited (yes, even little old me!). I had an incredible time at the Lush Hull event last year, so when Lush York contacted me to invite me to a fun-filled night of bath bombs, luscious scents and great company, how on earth could I refuse?!

Well look no further, because today I want to introduce you to the luxury cards by Made With Love Designs.

Christmas Clothing I Want to Wear All Year Long

I don't know about you guys, but I've never been one to go out of my way to buy some particularly festive fashion on the run up to Christmas. Sure, I've got the odd pair of Christmassy socks and I've had the occasional pair of pants that feature animals in knitwear (thanks M&S!), but I've never gone out of my way to find a cheesy festive piece to take me through December.

Bargain Gifts and Aloha Lola Cards at The Gifting Lounge

With Christmas fast approaching, we're always on the lookout for some bargain gifts for our families and friends. At The Gifting Lounge, there's a little something for everyone, and all at extremely affordable prices! I was lucky enough to receive 'The One'*, which is a stunning necklace from their jewellery collection.

Guest Post: Summer Sale Haul - Dos and Don'ts

Today's post is a guest post by beauty/fashion writer and stylist, Peter Minkoff. Keep reading for some handy sales tips!

Fashion has always been a way to project a sense of self. This wearable form of art (and I do dare to call it art as it is nothing but!) has an amazing impact on human psyche, human figure and the overall presentation of someones individuality with all its perks and flaws.

By emphasizing the importance of fashion and referring to it as art I am in no way trying to diminish the great artworks in painting, architecture, sculpture, drawing, singing, acting. They are all flabbergasting beauties in their own right and should be all honored as such!

My Newcastle New Year

If you've followed me on social media around New Year time, you will know I am a self-confessed New Years Scrooge. My boyfriends Dad, however, lives in Scotland (where they are big on the whole New Year/Hogmanay thing!) and invited us to stay with him over New Year, so I decided I should work up the courage to celebrate it this year. Unfortunately, the Scotland plans had to be cancelled last minute. But, rather than let our holiday days off work go to waste, my boyfriend and I booked a last minute Premier Inn in Newcastle for four days of food and shopping - perfect!
