Beautiful Summer Furiture

I was looking around the web for some cute things for a terrace party that I'm having in a few weeks and I stumbled upon these. How great are they! Both cute and comfortable for summer lounging.

I am so excited for the summer to come and the PYOs to open! Whooopie!

Sunny London!

FINALLY summer sun has arrived in London! I am planning on spending the weekend in a wonderful London park with friends and some fizz. Perfect!

I am also aware that I had a major clear out and needed new sun cream. I found these by CLARINS and I am so wowed at how wonderful and luxurios they are. No sticky residue, no horrible smell. I highly recommend them for every skin type.

Have a wonderful and healthy SUNSHINY weekend!

Benefit! Most beneficial!

When ever I walk past the cute BENEFIT boutique in Spitalfields I cannot help but go on and buy one of their absolutely fantastic little boxes of face colour! These have been transformational since I have had them... totally couldn't live without them from season to season.

Today I saw this Sugar Bomb and just had to buy it! Couldn't resist. What a Wednesday treat! Thanks Benefit.

Luckily, you can catch up on their site. It's chock full of fantastic fashion, travel, style, trends and beauty, just to name a few! AND the wonderful Dawn Porter even has a column each week! I just grabbed the latest copy and am getting ready to tuck in.

I wish it wasn't still so cold here... isn't it meant to be May?!
Have a wonderful week!

Grace Kelly, Style Icon at the Victoria and Albert Museum, London

I was so excited to see this exhibition advertised and cannot wait to visit. The V&A is always a treat, but this is something extra special I'm sure you'll agree!

Exhibition information below:

17 April - 26 September, 2010

"The spectacular wardrobe of Grace Kelly is on display at the V&A. Tracing the evolution of her style from her days as one of Hollywoods most popular actresses in the 1950s and as Princess Grace of Monaco, the display presents over 50 of Grace Kelly's outfits together with hats, jewellery and the original Hermès Kelly bag. Dresses from her films, including High Society, are on show as well as the gown she wore to accept her Oscar award in 1955. These are accompanied by film clips and posters, photographs and her Oscar statuette. The display also includes the lace ensemble worn by Grace Kelly for her civil marriage ceremony to Prince Rainier in 1956 and 35 haute couture gowns from the 1960s and 70s by her favourite couturiers Dior, Balenciaga, Givenchy, and Yves St Laurent."

Ta da!!! Wonderful new discovery!

Bliss Triple Oxygen Mask! I just tried this last night and all I can say is wow! What a great feeling, like little oxygen bubbles busting all over my face. The smell is also truly devine. When I rinsed it off I was left with an amazing feeling and a healthy glow. What more could a girl ask for on a Tuesday evening!

Spring, spring, SPRING!

I am so excited that it's fiiiiiinally spring! Such a long awful winter, good riddance! What are everyone's wonderful plans for the long sunny evenings? Strawberry picking here I come ... well, I will need to wait a little while longer for that!
