Ted Baker/New Bath & Body Collection

I'm a huge Ted Baker fan, I own clothing, handbags purses and even jewelry. 

The brand new body product range has just launched and I've been lucky enough to try* both of the new fragrances on offer, they come in both full and travel sizes so you can even take them with you on your holidays. 

I adore the packaging, and in true Ted Baker style they are something you'd want to show off on your dresser, and of course in your bathroom. 

So what does the collection have to offer? 

Well you'll find body wash, body moisturiser, body mist, lip balm and bubble bath. 

The fragrances are: Pink & Mint. 

Pink is a gorgeous blend of grapefruit, mandarin and mango with subtle floral notes of neroli and jasmine, and base notes of patchouli sandalwood and musk complete the scent, it's fresh, sweet and gentle. I've been reviewing the body wash, body mist and body souffle in this collection and this is my fave out of the 2 fragrance selections. My must have product is the souffle, its a gorgeous thick creamy moisturiser that melts into the skin. The pot is stunning, its all cut into gorgeous angles and is a must have on the dressing table. 

The wash is as good as you'd expect didn't find it dried my skin out or anything and is packed with the same fragrance as the other products, as it's not overly strong it would be a good idea to layer with the wash, then the souffle and the mist to finish. The mist is great for a freshen up during the day so I always have mine in my handbag. 

The Mint fragrance is a blend of fruity top notes, and a hint of violet, and base notes of patchouli, vanilla & amber. It's not a minty smell that's purely the colour of the packaging and the fragrance is more fresh than floral so if that's more you then go for the mint one. You'' see from these pictures that I've got the Pink collection in the standard sizes and the Mint collection in the minis. 

These products are all exclusive to Boots here in the UK so head over the Boots.com Website to shop the range now. 

Each fragrance offers gift sets which are just perfect to give to your fave female friends, who wouldn't want to receive these?!

River Island/Floral Blazer

My Instagram followers have been swooning over my recent uploads this past couple of weeks, I've been spying a lot of pastel, spring esque fashions. 

Topshop is full of pretty pastels, there are loads of cute prints around to, not to mention the brights on offer in River Island.

I've been eyeing up a blazer in River Island since it arrived in store last week, I saw it and it was literally love at first sight.
It is very Mary Berry (GBBO) but florals and prints are going to be huge this year so it's worth investing in a few key pieces.
I love how the bright neon colours are beautifully contrasted on the light grey background, the blazer is textured to and it really will be so versatile with so many things.

Priced at £50 and in stores and on the RI Website right now, if your looking for a blazer to take you through spring and summer then this is a great one to invest in. 

The print reminds me a lot of my beloved Ted Baker handbag with the oil painting print on it. 

I have picked up a few other lovely pieces lately, and I'm off on a shopping spree next weekend so I'll put together a haul post for you all then.

The Holiday Edit #1

Since the mention of a sun holiday my mind has been working overtime planning outfits & products I will take with me. Evening, outfits, shoes, essential products, going over my luggage allowance....

I have picked up a few bits already and wanted to share these with you, thought it would be better to do smaller posts as I go, just to be sure I don't miss anything out.

So here is what I have so far....

1. Beach Cover Up Dress £22 River Island Such a flattering design, and made of swimsuit material, this cover up will be perfect to pop on over your costume or bikini whilst wondering around on holiday, I am going to team this with wedges for a glam poolside look.

2. Khaki Crystal Bikini River Island £30 Having bigger boobs I find bikini shopping, a nightmare! River island bikinis are sold as separates, which means even us odd shaped ladies can find a bikini to suit our shape. The top was £17 & the bottoms were £13 and for the quality you cant really complain. I love the khaki colour and against a tan it'll look really nice.

3. Strappy Wedges £17.99 Deichmann Shoes I am pretty sure you'll agree, these wedges are lush! They are so comfy, and the nude colour means they will go with everything. They do a black and gold pair too in the same style which I will be buying this week (much to my mans horror, but he doesnt get that us women can never have too many pairs of shoes) I plan on taking these with me and wearing them in the evening. Wedges are a great way of getting height without the hassle of walking in stilletoes when your on holiday.

4. Floral Dress £10 Primark I was instantly drawn to this dress in Primark, its bright and girly floral design is perfect for holiday, its a really light sheer material and has an elasticated band around the waist, which makes it really flattering, team with wedges and a large bag and a straw hat this is ultimate holiday glam!

5. Flip Flops £4 each Matalan These sweet jelly flip flops feature a girly bow, and will be perfect for day time wear. I had to buy them in 3 colours of course...well you can never have too many shoes right?!

What do you think of my holiday purchases so far?

I will update you again really soon, and the make up and body product update will be coming soon!

Are you going anywhere nice on holiday this year?
