1st Blogger Event January 2014

Hi Dolls,

I hope you are enjoying all my recent posts! I will upload new posts now and then, so I hope you are loving them all! 

I was invited along to Blogger Beauty Bar event in central London, at Penthouse In Leicester square!I have been there a couple of times with my friends and what I love most about it is the night view of the London Eye. Each brand had their own space around the room. I loved how passionate and engaging most were. It was a pleasure talking to a few and exchanging contacts along the way. I learnt a lot from each different brand. One of the lovely ladies from La Cure used the gorgeous Papaya Body Butter on me and gave me a sample which I have used up because it's so hydrating to the skin and works wonder in the weather conditions we are currently experiencing in London!

I adore this! I use it everyday!

 The Make Up Bullet is a hollow bullet shaped foam applicator which you can put on the end of your finger for precise make up application. There is a pointed end to helps with tricky areas such as under the eye and it has a soft textured surface which I imagine will leave a really smooth finish.

These samples had pretty colours such a floral pink, dark red, beige and lighter colours which are right up my street.

                                                        Some of the goodies included were:

 I adore LA CURE and the papaya sample I was given at the beauty bar. I am pretty obsessed with creams/lotions/moisturizers you name it, so this was perfect for me! It's £21.50, 250g

"A secret of professional spas and salons, this beauty booster contains nourishing Dead Sea Salt, Papaya Essence, Jojoba Oil and Shea Butter to leave skin soft, silky and irresistibly touchable with the delicious scent of Papaya."

Purchase online at www.shoplacure.co.uk or for more information call 01202 871188.

I loved some of the products that this brand had to offer!  I was given plenty of sales and use their moisturier daily! When one of the representatives went through all the products I especially loved their rang of candles which can be used to moisturise your skin - Genius!

I truly loved HERRA PERFUME, hair perfume. I have received so many compliments about the smell it left on my hair and now all my best friends want it! It was one of the products that I wasn’t so sure completely  until I spoke to one of the representatives James who went through with it with me!Makes your hair smell lovely with floral scents. Included ingredients such as: Sunflower extract which not only protects structure of the hair but it helps provide protection against UV and Glycerin which helps provide ample hydration and seals in moisture, without weighing down the hair. 

                                                     HAVE YOU tried any of their products?

ITEMS I LOVE January 2014

I love River Island coats! The bright red coat is a statement itself and I love the outline zip detail. Red is in season and this definitely looks very cosy. I love the top detail in the navy jacket and the style of it. I had a similar jacket last year in black, so this one is right up my street. The brown jacket is cute and the fluffy top is suitable for the London cold weather!

I love midi dresses- as you all know! The River Island dresses are so in trend this season! The black midi dress is very long and can accentuate your body and make your legs look even longer! Bonus!
I tried the navy and pink dress on yesterday and it fitted so well! It showed off my curves and the colour stands out from the crowd!

I love this grey midi dress, you can literally spark it up to a night outfit or a day outfit, depending on the jacket and shoes with the accessories you choose! This beauty design dress is cute and girly! I love the middle section and the vibrant colours. You can find many skater dresses online and I'm so glad River Island has introduced this one!

I love the green palm trees on this dress and it's comfortable. It reminds me of being on holiday and it shows off your curves effortlessly! I need this orange dress, I am fallen in love with the colour and the design, it's different which is why I love it so much and will defiantley go well with my tanned skin colour.

TOPS: I don't normally wear flower prints, but since they are in fashion right now I found this beauty at Nasty Gal I really want it. I love the halter neck design and looks fitted. This red top is different, I haven't seen it before as it's different you can wear it up and down for different occasions.

Again, I have fallen for the pink and reds this season! I love the long sleeves this season and this top can suit to pretty much any skirt you desire to wear. The cut out sleeves on this top look cool and I love the colour. I have this in dark pink and love accessorizing it up with bold statement necklaces!

  

 "Girls rule, Boys droll" Logo is cute and I would love more statement tops like this!

                                                                       
                                                                            Again, cut out tops are in season and I have fallen for this black crop top. You can wear it going out with a cute skirt, and bold heels. Flower printed top goes well with skinny jeans and pumps. I love these two crop tops, definitely in season and shows off you waist as you wear these statement skirts. I love this top and would go well with high waited jeans and a nice jacket! I would definitely wear this white top going out, the print in the middle is cute with the bow design and shapes off on your arms nice, looks classy and cute! Wear it with a cute clutch and earrings and you're ready to go!

These four pairs of jeans are different, yet the skinny jeans look is still in season. I am obsessed with them right now as I wear them with high knee boots and ankle boots!

Playsuits are cute and comfortable. You can dress these up and down. I love them so much!

                                                                   

I have always loved jumpsuits! These four jumpsuits are the ones I love right now. I love the design, colour and details on them. The baby blue one is my favourite and hoping to wear it to the London Fashion Week!

These are the shoes I love right now. The platform boots are cute and I love the brown buckle design on the side. I have the black pair but in navy blue, so it would be nice to own another in a different colour as black is such a versatile colour. I love these pumps, I need some in red! The heels are classy and cute - you can pretty much find them in most stores as they are in fashion right now!


OPINIONS?

DOLLS, love always.
