M.A.Y C.R.U.S.H.E.S

Summer loving starts with these GORGEOUS new polishes courtesy of MODELS OWN.

I simply painted the new HEDKANDI "Ibiza Mix" glitter over BarryM pastle shades....



The ModelsOwn polish in shade "Indian Ocean" is perfect for dressing up any shade of polish with its creamy, cute pearly tones.



Just simply layer on as much Ibiza Mix you can handle for a more dramatic effect.

MY NEW LIP TATTS!

Thought I would share with you a photo of a new Lip Tattoo I got from amazon!
I have recommended VIOLENT LIPS tattoos before, but Amazon offers such a wide range of tatts at the fraction of the price that I could not resist!

SUMMER. L.O.V.I.N @ ASOS

There is nothing I enjoy more than shopping for a summer holiday &&& especially this season as the prints are bold and the colours are bright! 
Don't give me these quiet pastel shades and washed-out patterns, I love exciting, electric, kick-ass and kitsch!

Flicking through the ASOS magazine I have fallen for a stunning Egyptian themed one-piece... How beautiful would this look on the beach!?



Sexy tees emblazoned with birds of paradise and tropical prints are also hot this season. Team along with some super-flirty dipped hemlines or dainty denim shorts.

My holiday necessities are always some simple, black, white and other simple single colour V tops. These can be worn with anything! Perfect for colour-crazy trends!
I simply ADORE these tie-dye effect shoes by Aldo - perfect for complimenting a simple tee and jeans!






Ive fallen head over heels for these ASOS Ombre Floral Knicker shorts! The print and colours are divine!


Holidays are about experimenting with brights and styles you might normally be too shy to play with at home. Treat the boardwalk like the catwalk!

ASOS is forever going to be my favourite on line shopping store! The choice is unbelievable and the clothes are forever being updated!
I always managed to find some great deals on asos.com and what I love most is that I can wear a dress on a night out and guarantee I won't see anyone wearing the same! The choice is endless!

So in celebration of ASOS and all the great clothing it offers (and the fact that summer is creeping ever closer) here is a selection of my favourite sunshine-brights and styles from www.asos.com

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!

P.A.R.I.S

Paris, the city of love, sophistication & style...


My amazing boyfriend suprised me with a trip to Paris just before Christmas last year. I had no idea where I was going, I was told to pack a suitcase and be ready for 5pm. So I thought I would share with you some photies of our trip. Hopefully you will also be inspired to catch a flight to Paris and explore all the beauty the city has to offer...

We explored the bustling, bright Christmas markets on the Champs Elysees. Taking a stroll past busy market stalls selling everything from colourful ceramic plates to glistening sticky donuts.

As well as taking in all the sights and sounds of the Christmas markets, nothing could distract from the excitement our noses were experiencing. The smell of beautiful, deep smokey meats drifted down the streets from the huge vats of mouthwatering stews, with notes of sweet chocolate and candyfloss cutting through the powerful aroma, escaping from the dainty candy stalls dotted around the roadside.



We took a lengthy stroll through the beautiful Parisian streets, heading from the Champs Elysees to the Eiffel Tower. Take note of all the little bistros you wander past with their delicate pastries and cakes. Gaze in admiration at the cute apartments that you pass.








The icon of romance and sophistication - The Eiffel Tower.Standing tall and proud, looking down on the beautiful city beneath it. The grounds at the foot of the tower were perfecting for lazing around and taking in the sights, mainly of tourists huddling around excitedly trying to get the best picture of them and the tower.





















 The metro system is the perfect way to get around Paris, a few euros can give you a day-pass of unlimited exploration around the city.
We got off the Metro at “Blanche” as we wanted to explore the seedier, sexier side of the City. We explored the area around the infamous setting of the Moulin Rouge in the Quartier Pigalle. Nicknamed “Pig Alley” by Allied soldiers, due to its raunchy reputation and numerous sex shops.  My boyfriend then surprised me with tickets for the evening show at the Moulin Rouge!


Before heading back to the hotel to get ready for our night at the Moulin Rouge, we headed over to the Basilique de Sacre-Coeur. Here we climbed up to the summit and took in the breathtaking sights of the Paris skyline...


 Being a huge fan of the film "The Moulin Rouge" it was great to be able to take a seat in the place where the story began. The Bal Du Moulin Rouge is grand and expensive, for a few hours you are transformed into a Parisian aristocrat, glugging down champagne as you enjoy an iconic show full of raunchiness, nudity, hundreds of costume changes and amazing, beautiful dancers.




.FAVOURITE FRAGRANCES.

What are your favourite fragrances? & why do you love them?I have a favourite fragrance "Top 3" . Signature perfumes I always find myself buying again and again. I love to wear a perfume that receives compliments, that makes me feel sexy and a perfume that smells so unique that people can associate with it with MOI.

One of my favourite perfumes is elle by YSL, Yves Saint Laurent.
I first noticed this scent while visiting a friend in Dubai. Here I noticed that all the majestic Arabic women drifiting by were leaving behind delicate wafts of floral and Freesia. My friend explained that elle by YSL is very popular with Arabic women and that was the beautiful fragrance I was discovering.....

"Being stuck in airport, you always end up buying perfume and sunglasses.." Lexa Doig


elle by YSL makes me feel sophisicated, sexy.. with heart notes of Raspberry and Jasmine, fading into base notes of musk, patchouli and cedar, even after a long day elle manages to leave your skin smelling beautiful and exotic..                                                                   

"elle Shocking the new addition to the elle range Unpredictable and like no other, elle is the essence of femininity at Yves Saint Laurent. elle is the embodiment of a unique, modern-chic style. Liberated in her choices, rich by her contrast, strong through her contradictions, the elle woman lives her passions to the full, without exceptions and without concessions. elle fulfils all her desires..."


Hypnotic Poison by Dior is another beautiful fragrance.

"The mystery of Dior's legendary forbidden fruit lives on in a magical, modern philter that blends femininity with boldness. "

I am ALWAYS getting complimented on this orietnal vanilla based fragrance. Heavenly enough to wear through the day- yet also seductive enough to wear through into the night. If you have not already bought or experienced this fragrance then I really urge you to test it. Some of my friends find the vanilla scent in this fragrance far too over powering, but I love it as I like wearing something that will get me noticed and lasts throughout the day. This fragrance still smells gorgeous after a long hard shift at work and the patients are always complimenting me on the perfume.
"A woman's perfume tells more about her than her handwriting." Christian Dior

Vivienne Westwood is one of my all time favourite designers, so this fragrance is perfect for those who love the sexy sophisticated designs from the lady herself. Alluring and enchanting this fragrance is so feminine and oozes vintage glamour. The bottle looks beautiful on my dressing room table too and I love the orb lid!                                                                                       "Boudoir, a chypre-floral fragrance for women, is present since 1998. It is dedicated to a feminine and strong woman, with accentuated sexuality. Just like a boudoir, the fragrance defines a private and intimate space, charming and seductive, while touching the woman's skin, neck and decollete..."

STEP INTO STYLE @ E.B.A.Y

Never underestimate the power of ebay.


It was my sister who started my ebay shoe obsession. Every other week a parcel containing beautiful shoes would arrive for her and I would always be amazed when she told me she had purchased them from ebay. I was always even more amazed by the price!
Just click the "Fashion" category on the ebay home page, followed by "women's shoes" and away you go!
Theres always so much choice and you will be amazed at what you can get for your money! My personal favourites are the copy-cat Christian Louboutins with the signature red soles.


It depends what your style preferences are. I always like bright, quirky shoes or shoes that are very, very glittery! So here are a few of my favourite finds that will definitely be filling up my online basket:
