Another one of my secrets... sshh (Dry Shampoo)

Batiste Dry Shampoo, £2.96
                                                        


If your hair is anything like mine; Long, Thick, Hard to manage when dirt-free… You will LOVE this. I have been using Batiste Dry shampoo for over 7months now, and its defiantly one of my ‘have to have’ essentials; Leaving your hair fresh, volumizing your roots, with easy to cope with hair, amazing right? Despite this sounding a little unpleasant, I do dread washing my hair at times!… No frowns please, surely you’ve all felt the same way at some point.

Its straightforward to use, although do make sure you rub in the powder!.. Otherwise you’ll find yourself looking as if you’ve aged rather quickly!
For all you intense partiers, I know dancing can break up a sweat (I’ve been there…) Trying to look your best with greasy hair…… IN STEPS DRY SHAMPOO…
 
But when the Dry Shampoo isn’t working, you know it’s actually time to wash your hair!!

Just be careful though! once you try it… you will become addicted! Hehe

Love Locking Fashion...

'Who needs a ring round their finger, when you can put a lock round a rail…'
                                      
Love Locking - Taken September 2010
Pont des Arts bridge, Paris



Now in Paris; the global city of love... well known for its romantic cafes, restaurants, monuments and cobbled streets, the lover's growing trend of sticking 'Cadenas d'amour' (Love Padlocks) on the Pont Des Arts bridge over the Seine has vastly increased its popularity (Being the ultimate love trend).
                                               
Having travelled to Paris on several occasions, and visited the Pont des Arts bridge (no, not because I have many loves to lockup unfortunately, but there’s also a lot of fascinating things to see at this location) the increase in love locking is astonishing, maybe even more when you see it with your own eyes!

So if your ready to lock up your love, why not ACTUALLY do it... In the city of Love. Just remember not to throw away the key, Hehe.

Fashion, Fashion, FASHION... something we haven't all heard before ay? Its nice to look nice; if what your wearing looks great... you feel great about yourself, right?

However, isn't there more to Fashion then a beautiful pair of shoes that turns heads wherever you walk, or maybe that designer handbag that makes all your friends say
"I WANT THAT!"?...
Speaking of Handbags
                                       
                                       

Mulberry Handbag, £895
I do want this :(!!!
                                         

... back to my point,

For sometime now I’ve wondered how fascinating Fashion can be. I’m sure you've all heard that old saying "Never judge a book by its cover"?... Ask yourself this, 'Do you stereotype people on their style choices?' (For all those who just said no, i am extremely amazed!) So ask yourself... Have you ever been stereotyped by the style choice you perceive?

Lets say...
You see a woman wearing a black lace dress that defines her 'two rounded organs' maybe making them look larger than usual. Short enough that if her lip-gloss dropped she'd be revealing quite more than she expected... with all honesty, What would be your initial reaction?...

Before understanding someone, its very easy to place judgment based on someone's style, this is where Fashion becomes ingenious! as its the first entity you notice (well... other than their face... unless your Lady Gaga who also like's to broaden 'face' fashion on a daily basis)... is why Fashion doesn't have to be one of your interest's, but you always use it.

So, What does your Fashion say about you?

Alittle one of my secrets... sshh (Xen-Tan)

  Xen-tan, £25.95
                                                    

For all those fake tan users reading this or those who are in the process of becoming a fake tan user, this may be of interest... I am using Xen-Tan at the moment, and it works beautifully!

Call me crazy but i do believe it may just be better than actual sun tanning.. 
It's Pro's..

  • Avoid peeling
  • No skin damage
  • Costing you £25 to get a natural glow not £250!

It's Con's....

  • Your stuck with British weather! (that's if you live here)

Yes, you may ask yourself 'Well what about streaking or orangeness?' Although i can't speak for all skin types... I have been using Xen-Tan regularly for afew months, and i have not once come across any streaking (this is not because im an expert at applying, i was a fake tan virgin myself before Xen-Tan) just always remember to exfoliate!...
As for orangeness, i haven't experienced it myself... but i do believe if you apply to much it may result to it, just don't get carried away!! AND it smells amazing! :D

Less is more Fashion…

What do you consider as sexy, less or more?

I know us ladies all have our favourite assets we love to flaunt, whether its our long sexy legs, perfect shaped cleavage, our even our womanly curves! I have been eager to find out what society considers as ‘sexy’. Could we be getting it all wrong?…

For instance,
If you try typing into Google ‘Sexy clothes’… you are swamped with lingerie… I am confused… I’m sure I typed in ‘sexy clothes’ not ‘sex clothes’… Have we found our answer already? 'Google' being one of the world's most common public web browsers, has just certified that 'sexy' is less.

Then again taking into acccount that the actual meaning of 'Sexy' describes sexual attraction in humans, it does establish the point quite evidently.

However, im still not entirely convinced. I believe there's more to looking 'Sexy' than what meets the eye...
                                              Iro Azor Jumpsuit £205

Take a look at the image above, Is this sexy? I can‘t speak for everyone but I do find this outfit attractive, nonetheless it being a full grey jumpsuit, exposing only her arms. So what makes this style choice ‘sexy’? … Could it be elegance?... Perhaps, the term ‘you want what you can’t get’ makes you contest yourself to discover what is prohibited to you?


This summer Maxi dresses, were a must have. One of the seasons most popular trends. With celebritys like; Nicole Richie, Lauren Conrad, Hayden Panettiere, Fergie, Vanessa Hudgens, Audrina Partridge and many more were rocking Maxi dresses this summer.




Surely,  you got hold of your very own Maxi dress... Did it make you feel sexy?

Regardless the long length Maxi dresses' were exposing nothing but arms and alittle of the chest, men loved it. One piece, no fuss, little effort but the finishing result appearerd to be far from it ;)

So i do still stand by my personal beliefs that, 'Sexy'... does not always mean less.
