Pleased to say that Keep Calm and Shop, my online luxury shopping guide, is going down an absolute treat! I’m really enjoying scouring the shops and picking out amazing things – potentially dangerous financially as I want absolutely everything I…
“And here we have…” Bonjour! Happy Saturday! Here I am with my monthly round-up of beauty launches, favourite products, interesting and brilliant purchases…and I’m punctual as ever! Sit and have a cuppa and watch me blather on – you know…
“Now these shadows are something I could quite easily get obsessed with…just look at that packaging! If James Bond made eyeshadows… Little glass jars filled with what looks like loose powder but is, in fact, the loveliest fine-milled metallic pressed…
