Scent Crazy!

Topic of today: MY FAVOURITE PERFUMES!

I will be reviewing and reminiscing about my fave scents. Be prepared guys, you wont be able to shut me up!

D&G LIGHT BLUE


My #1 smell HAS to be D&G Light Blue.
Its absolutely beautiful! Its sort of soft citrusy blended with a combination of jasmine, musk and freesia. If you have not tried, I highly recommend it. PLUS, I hate perfume in small bottles. I never buy 30ml, it always has to be 100ml, sometimes 50ml. The more the better; by that I don't mean go bathe yourself in it.
 I mean I am more comfortable buying big bottles as I have a fear of things running out. Yeah, told ya.... I wont shuttup and I shall ramble!!


GIORGIO ARMANI REMIX




Crisp fruity scents meets floral. YUM!! Armani City Glam is just as lush, but I LOVE Remix more.
This is ALWAYS in my handbag and I'm always getting asked which perfume I am wearing.
There isn't an Armani scent that I don't like. This is my #2


DIOR ~ MISS DIOR CHERIE





My scent of 2009. Brings back a lot of memories. ALL of them good :)
It has a citrussy freshness wrapped up in fruity notes. I really don't know how to describe this scent. Just go to your nearest Boots and splash some on, if you haven't already.
Currently, my #3


YSL ELLE




Elle is what YSL is all about! I love the smell, I love the colour and the design of the bottle.
It has very fresh, floral and musky tones and a must have for ALL women!
My #4!

MARCJ JACOBS: LOLA



I recently reviewed the new scent by Marc Jacobs (Eau So Fresh). The bottle to that is very lovely, however the design to this scent it just as beautiful as the smell itself. Lola is one of Marc Jacobs best selling perfume, the price tag can be a bit deep, unless there is a sale on that I don't know about "/
LOVE this scent!
My #5


MOSCHINO: COUTURE!


I have a bit of a collection of Moschino perfumes. This is my favourite one out of them all.
Couture has a blend of smells: vanilla, bergamot, mandarin, cedar wood. It may not be to everyone's taste, but it is another scent that has musky overtones.
Love it :)
My #6

CAROLINA HERRERA: 212


Another bottle shape that I just love.
It has top notes of orange flower, mandarin, lily, gardenia and bergamot. Y'all probably think I'm just nuts about florals and fruity scents, really, I'm not. Each scent in my list has a very individual smell, regardless of the product description!
Lucky #7


KENZO: FLOWER




Again with the flowers!! Yeah, yeah, yeah.....
Fresh, floral notes.
Say no more! 
My #8

LACOSTE: POUR FEMME


The only Lacoste perfume that I do NOT own is Lacoste Love of Pink. I really do wonder why....
This scent has more sensual notes of hibiscus, jasmine and cedar wood. I class this as a classic Lacoste scent.
Prices Vary, I've included a link from http://www.cheapsmells.com/
My #9


ISSEY MIYAKE: L'EAU D'ISSEY



This is a very feminine scent. One thing I love about it is the wide range of base notes it gives off. 
It has a combination of freesias, Lilllie's, carnations etc. 
The design of the bottle is adorable!
I also really like the men's version!
My last and final #10


Hope some of these scents have inspired you to be brave and try some new smells out!
More updates and reviews soon.

Sultry Spring Collection 2011


Regardless of the rubbish weather here in the UK, us girls do not need a reason to dress good and look good. The new spring collections are out and even though we might be getting ourselves out of a recession, the fashion industry is still booming!

Take a lot at my favourite sultry spring collection.

LACE!




The classic antique style fabric that is LACE is all about Spring 2011.
There are pretty great offerings on the high street. Try River Island, New Look, Miss Selfridge, Primark etc. The the variety is beautiful and you will eventually be spoilt for choice. As mentioned previously pastel colours, classic colours and florals are in at the moment. Prices vary.




WIDE LEG PANTS!




ASOS.COM has a huge range of wide leg pants and the prices start from £10.
It was jeggings last year, well this year the trend has evolved into something a bit more different. With that said, wide leg pants may not be everyone's cup of tea. This year, the flares are back, big time. Stylish and classy. I remember coming across a silk pair in Primark last week, I thought they were bizarre! But the different styles available have changed my mind and thats why they have made my sultry spring collection.


CLOGS


Yes, CLOGS!! Last year I hated them, this year I pretty much love them. Clunky wooden shoes may not appeal to a lot of people, but apparently to some they do! Continuing from the success in 2010, the clog trend continues to have an impact in 2011. The ones I have selected are from Jane Norman.



EAU SO FRESH!



I saw a Marc Jacobs promotional courtesy car yesterday, that had been stylishly designed to promote the new scent.
The perfume is a light flowery scent and very spring/summery. Guaranteed to be a big hit, its already in my shopping basket. Debenhams are currently doing an offer on the 75ml bottle. Grab it before it runs out, guys!!
Product details on Debenhams site: Daisy eau so fresh is a bright, floral, fruity fragrance. It radiates with a sunny and sparkling energy. Playful with a whimiscal spirit, this version of the original daisy scent radiates with crisp raspberry, sensuous wild rose, and deep and warm plum. Sophisticated but not too serious, daisy eau so fresh captures the vintage flavor of marc jacobs feminine, edgy designs.




WILD CORAL



Wear it light, wear it heavy, the colour coral is still fabulous and oh-so glamorous!!
ROUGE COCO selection by Chanel, it has a soft and creamy texture and delivers 8 hour hyration from the first application!
Colour: Peregrina #78


POP- PASTEL EYE PALLETTE




Latest Limited Edition from POP!
Colours: Sheer almond, baby pink, glowing pistachio, lovely lilac, glistening opal, soft yellow.
RRP £13.50

Poison on my mind!

Hey :)
Colour Theme of today : RED


Dress of the day


Ok, so its more of a shirt dress, but we're keeping up with the trend and the colour!
It is lighweight silky dress from Vero Moda. Featuring a v-neck, a rever collar, a button-through fastening,

fitted waist, short cuffed 

sleeves and a flared swing 

skirt.

Available from ASOS.COM for £25 :)


SHOES OF THE DAY (my favourite part :) )



Wedges are still in and I gotta admit, I love them! Once again, I have chosen these from the Miss Selfridge online store. They just sell the BEST shoes! And the variety is always amazing.
Heel height 12.5cm.





This is so me! I love clutch bags and the fact that this is a over-sized clutch bag is more of a bonus. I have a collection of clutch bags; ok, so I'm crazy bag lady....
Its a bit on the steep side when it comes to the price tag of this clutch: £55
However, bang on trend!




I am LOVING the cosmetics from Accessorize, especially the nail polish and eye shadow range.
This is called: With Love Pillar Box.
Only for £4.
Try your nearest Superdrug store or Accessorize store.



I kind of struggle to find appropriate sizes for my weirdo fingers! Either the ring does not fit or the ring is too tight. I'm confoosed :(
I like them though, thank God for the adjustable ones, problem solved :p


SCENT OF THE DAY!



CHRIISTIAN DIOR! Enough said!

More tomorrow.
