Marie Jo is the most famous Belgian lingerie collection and I have just ordered my first bra and thong set with them! Yihaa! As always, lingerie blog The Lingerie Post has great photos of the Marie Jo Lingerie collection I ordered from!
I bought the one in the middle on top. 
Daphne from Blog-Tique has started a quest! A quest to find the perfect summer dress! I wish her all the luck in the world! Her first pick, a gorgeous little number by Edun is a great start!
Keep it up, Daphne!
I’m a big lingerie fan, and I’m LOVING this Belabumbum lingerie collection for spring 2008. The Brazilian label has an excellent in-house photographer called Alex Solmssen, who, according to The Lingerie Post, is looking for more work in the scene!
As a regular user of hair extensions, I am always looking for products of a higher quality; softer, more shinier hair that lasts longer, looks more natural and tends not to become matted after just a couple of weeks.
I’ve used acrylic hair extensions the most; Of course, the first few days are fine until they need to be washed and then they tend to become a little frizzy, which in turn means you can’t apply product. Electronic applications such as a blow dryer or straightening irons are also a no-go as the excessive heat damages the hair.
Well, that was until I came across PerfectLocks.com! Their hair extensions are made from 100% natural, human Indian hair, meaning that you’ll have no problem when it comes to applying product, shampooing, conditioning, blow drying, straightening, curling the hair piece or even swimming whilst wearing it! It’s also stated to be “virgin” (meaning that it hasn’t been processed in any way) and “Remy” (meaning that it is the highest quality hair available within the industry).
Upon arrival to the site, I was amazed to see such positive testimonials from past customers: “Never did I have a single problem with it tangling or matting or anything!” (definitely an advantage considering I’d been using acrylic hair extensions which frizzed and tangled at the slightest amount of moisture) and “even my hairstylist wanted to know where I purchased my hair from” stated another gushing review.They also provide many types of application when it comes to installing the hair extensions; clip- on, hand tied, machine- wefted and pre-tipped were just a few, and i also noticed the sale of curly, wavy and straight hair and hair of many different colours and shades, which not only meant you could find the most convenient way for you to wear them making them feel more comfortable, but it would also look completely natural and real just like your own hair- only longer!
But don’t just let me try to convince you- see the results for yourself!:
Above are the before and after shots of what seems to be one very happy customer! I think you’ll agree when I say that the Indian hair extensions look amazing! (Click the image for more before and after shots)
As for the website and company, I was 100% reassured that I would be given great customer service and satisfaction! The site provided me with all of the information I needed and the FAQ section also answered all of any queries that customers may have about it.
Ever found yourself searching endlessly for that perfect dress for a certain special occasion? Whether it be an elegant evening dress for a posh do, a simply summer frock or something sexy and stylish for a party?
I know that personally- i have. And sometimes you think it relevant to spend hundreds of pounds last minute on a dress that you’re only going to wear once.
Well, Ebay may not be your first choice- most people think it’s full of rubbish, second hand garments and that Ebay is basically just an online carboot sale- but you really just have to know where to look!
I found an Ebay dress store recently, whilst looking for an elegant cocktail dress and i found loads of lovely pieces at quite low prices.
Efashiongirl (http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/efashiongirl/) has loads of designs, prints, colours and styles of dresses to choose from.
I especially love this beautiful champagne- coloured dress and bidding starts at just £8.99!!!!
Ok, so i had recently become interested in changing the colour of my hair from a dark brown- mid black to a light caramel brown with blonde highlights, quite like that of teen superstar JoJo’s:
I have to admit: i’ve admired it for a long time and so now i had actually plucked up the courage to undergo my radical new change- myself!
So, the first thing i did was to check out Google for some product reviews and advice on how to change my hair colour from extremely dark to light without damaging my hair.
I found that quite a few people would recommend that of L’oreal’s Super Blonde, a bleach which can be used to either:
1. Lighten naturally dark hair in order to prepare it for colouring
2. Strip away the dye from coloured hair in order to re-colour using a different shade of dye
I headed to my local Boots store to make my purchase and according to the instruction leaflet within the pack, using L’oreal’s Excellence or Recital was recommended to recolour my hair after use. So i purchased Natural Dark Blonde (shade 7) of L’oreal’s Excellence Creme colourant.
I’d read previously on one of the reviews that using the Super Blonde colourant had made their hair an orangey/ coppery colour after use and to be honest, i don’t think that they understood that this is normal because you are actually supposed to apply another colour to the hair for the final result which therefore colours over this tint.
So, i followed the instrustions to the book:
1. Start by carefully untangling your hair. Apply 2/3 of the mixture to the lengths and tips only, beginning at the nape and avoiding the first 3 centimetres of roots. Massage thoroughly into the hair.
2. Leave it to develop for 20 to 30 minutes. After that, apply the rest of the product to the first 3 centimetres of roots, then massage again to help penetration of the product. Leave it to develop for a further 20 to 30 minutes.
3. Pour a little lukewarm water into the hair and massage gently, then rinse thoroughly, until the water runs clear.
4. Finish by applying hair of the Nutri Ceramide Conditioner provided. Massage gently and rinse thoroughly.
So, my finishing result was pleasing. It wasn’t black anymore, more so a reddy, lighter brown colour which obviously was easier to colour over.
I used the new hair colourant a couple of hours later.
I left it 3 days (after applying a deep conditioner), though before applying the blonde highlighting dye, just to be sure that my hair wouldn’t become damaged from all of the chemicals i used.
And, there you have it =]
I’d just like to raise our visitors awareness of spamming.
In case you don’t know, wordpress automatically filters and blocks any spam comments that may be made by site visitors, including those with swearing, excessive coding, etc…

Back to Black
Every season, major designers attempt to redefine the fashion industries most adored colour- black.
There’s really no wonder why- it’s slimming, suites just about everyone, goes with everything and is especially efficient if you are daunted by crazy, rainbow- style fashions.
It’s also brilliant for allowing a range of different styles and occasions- sophisticated by day, sexy by night- What more could you possibly want?
We are a massive fan of this seasons new Topshop ranges, in particular.
This Militant Jacket, £60 from their new-in line is gorgeous and would look super hot teamed with gold bangles and dangly earrings and a slick pair of skinny jeans- just add flat pumps in the afternoon and a pair of towering platforms in the evening for the perfect day-to-night combo!

Most of us have gazed in the windows of shops such as Tiffany’s, Graff and the like, and probably wondered and dreamed about what it would be like to own a piece of amazing jewellery. Some of the designs can also be absolutely breathtaking, but then so are some of the price tags.
It’s a fact that diamonds take billions of years to develop, and being very rare it is only natural for the prices to be high – its that old supply and demand thing! But, the market is changing. Its now possible to find many online services where they will design the ultimate piece of jewellery, ranging from diamonds bracelets to glittering necklaces and the most wonderful diamond engagement rings. These online sites are also much cheaper than the high street shops.
Most diamond jewellery retailers will add at least 100% mark-up, often as much as 200% over the actual price of the diamonds. So, whilst a 2 carat diamond (of a given quality) might trade at $20,000, when its sold in a high street retailer you could be looking at as much as $50,000! But its not just the money you save through buying online, you can also have bespoke design services, you just show them a photo of what you want, and they will make it for you. Once example is bestdiamonds.co.uk, there are many other, check for yourself!
