Rosie Huntington Whiteley for Autograph my second set :)

Hello all :)

Last week I picked up the other set from the Rosie for Autograph from Marks and Spencer and here it is :)

I really can't express how pleased I am with this line of Lingerie and how great the style and quality is for the price :)

I purchased the Rosie for Autograph French Designed Rose Lace Padded Plunge Bra with Silk in Light Taupe (as seen here), with Brazilian knickers and suspender belt.

Here are the pictures.

The bra is a great shape and fit, and the textures are so sensual.

The suspender belt again is well made, and has a contrast of texture also which is so sexy ;)

The knickers again are exquisite :) The lace is so soft and delicate.

 I hope you enjoyed the pictures, I will be buying more from this collection as I'm totally in love with everything :)

Rosie Huntington Whiteley for Autograph Marks&Spencer

Hey everyone, I hope you're well.

I don't normally post about my choice of underwear but since hearing in May that Rosie Huntington Whiteley was bringing out her own Lingerie collection for Autograph at Marks and Spencer I have been extremely excited :)

I am a big fan of RHW's style and beauty oh and her hair and body also, she's so effortless and cool, yet feminine.

Anyway to the collection comprises 33 pieces containing silk, including lingerie sets, kimono style robe, french knickers and camisoles.

Prices start at £12.50 - £65.

From the collection I picked the Rose Print Lace set, I was intending to buy more however my size had been sold out, apart from the Rose Print of course.

I have ordered the Taupe Bra, Knickers and Suspender belt which should arrive in store on Tuesday :D 

On the lingerie set is perfect, they are true to size, comfortable, the silk is so soft and the lace is delicate and soft against skin. They are a true joy to wear. Perfect for cheering yourself up and feeling special. 

So without further ado here are some pics :)

Thanks for reading.

Burberry Body

 Finally I am blogging about my beloved Burberry Body perfume, I've been putting this off for months due to my lack of experience in writing perfume reviews. I mean I find it difficult to describe a perfume, especially since perfumes  smell different on everyone.

 However I shall give this my best shot.

I have to admit I am a big Rosie Huntington Whiteley fan, she's gorgeous, sexy and seems down to earth. She doesn't even seem to try to be sexy, she just is. Everything about her screams SEXY! The Lips, The Hair and Those Legs.

When I found out this perfume was coming out many months ago now, I sincerely hoped I'd like it. Before it actually came out Burberry was giving away free samples so I sent off for one and waited eagerly for it to arrive. When it came I received a nice sized sample and a postcard with RHW's campaign picture on. 

So for the perfume the notes include absinthe, peach, freesia, rose absolute, iris, sandalwood, cashmeran, vanilla, amber and musk.

For me this scent is warm, sensual and creamy. 

At first I smell a slight chypre, but it disappears  quickly and settles into a sexy vanilla (not sweet sickly, gourmet vanilla), with sandalwood and amber.

It has great staying power and I seem to receive compliments on it several hours after spraying it on, saying that though it is not at all overpowering.

The bottle itself is a little tower of art, its sleek and feels expensive and looks great on the dressing table, however it is a little heavy to carry around.

I paid £45 for a 35ml bottle, which is quite steep I guess, but in my opinion definitely worth it, so worth it that I bought the box set :) Which contains a 85ml bottle of Eau De Parfum spray and an 85ml bottle of Body Milk in a spray container which is super handy.

Now I just wish I had a man to smell it on me, Ha!

Trying to be fit and healthy.

This isn't a New Year resolution post, oh no, I don't do resolutions as they're for breaking.

This is more of a picking up where I left off last October.

What is it about the winter that makes you want to laze around and eat?! Maybe it's a lack of sunlight or that the shops are stocked full of too many nice things.

Anyway I decided a few days ago that it's time I start getting myself in order again after I noticed my belly starting to look like jelly :(

I'm a firm believer that you are what you eat, and that it shines through your body. 

I am reasonably healthy as I'm a vegetarian and have been since the age of 13. Though I do have to watch my iron levels and did become anemic back in 2009-2010, which wasn't a fun experience. Since then I have taken iron supplements (mainly in liquid form).

Even though I try to eat healthily it doesn't mean I don't eat what I want, and that's why I try to do both of these DVDs when I have time (or I make the time).

The Tracy Anderson Method Mat workout is a really good DVD for working out your muscles at different angles. I work muscles I never knew existed with this DVD. I'm not really looking to lose weight, more to tone and be slightly more defined in certain areas :)

I also mix it up with the 10minute solution - Pilates perfect Body DVD. I'd never tried any pilates until I tried this dvd and I can tell you that as soon as you start pilates you will feel your posture becoming better and you will feel stronger, which I guess is due to working the core (as that's what pilates is about).

Both DVDs are set into 10min sections, which I find really handy when you're in a rush or feeling too tired to do a whole 30min workout.

I don't really know enough about fitness to say much more, however I did find when I was using these DVDs a couple of months back that mixing up the sections a bit gives great results.

My favourite sections on the Tracy Anderson DVD are the; standing legs, standing abs and arms workout with weights. Then my favourite Pilates Perfect sections are; pilates perfect belly, perfect buns& thighs and perfect silhouette sections.

I'm also trying to get back into the swing of making green shakes again, "ugh" I hear you say and yeah it can be unpleasant sometimes, but once you start drinking them quite often you get use to it :)

Green shakes are meant to give you an energy boost, plus it's good for you :)

To make a green shake I usually mix spinach, green apples, celery and anything else I can find.

In the smoothie below I used: Spinach, Kiwi Fruit, Pear, Pineapple Juice (still counts as one of your five a day) and I also added a Gala Apple.

I first read about green shakes in Womans Health when Rosie Huntington Whiteley was on the cover, she mentioned that she drinks them.

Though for the one she drinks she adds five fistfuls of spinach, three stalks of celery and three apples, and well if it's good enough for Rosie, it's good enough for me. :P As she does have an amazing body.

Thanks for reading :)

New hair colour and some L'oreal.

Hi, I'm trying to keep this blog more updated than it has been, so i just thought I'd blog about my new hair colour =)

As you may know I have had a lot of colours on my hair of late, red, brunette and blonde and this caused a lot of damage to my hair :(

However I have now decided to go back and stay my natural medium blonde colour. So with a little help from my hairdressers she was able to match me to a colour and applied a semi-permanant dye as she didn't want to damage my hair any further.

The plan was to go a Rosie Huntington Whiteley blonde.

As seen here.

However it couldn't be done straight away. 

The plan is to have some highlights added to the underlayers of my hair in a couple of months as I need my hair to repair itself a little before damaging it further, and to let my roots to grow out so I get the slight ombre look Rosie has going on.

So here is my hair now.

Next for the makeupy bit :)

I have to admit I'm not a huge fan of drugstore cosmetics, I don't know why. Possibly it's either its hit or miss with the quality or that it feels more glamorous opening a box to a Dior or Chanel Lipstick and applying it, I don't know.

However with these two little L'oreal goodies you can't go wrong ;)

The other day I realised I didn't have a liquid eyeliner anymore 'shock', so I went out and bought one straight away.

After having a quick look on the Boots website before going in out I read some good reviews on the L'oreal Super Liner so I decided it would be the one :)

And I'm so glad I bought it, it's lovely.

It gives a smooth application with its sponge tip applicator, which also allows easy control unlike some of the more brush tipped ones.

You can see in the pic below that I was able to do a quick squiggle with it :)

The liner itself is jet black and stays on all day. I took this photo after about 6hours of wear and it was still holding good.

I bought the L'oreal Studio Secrets Lip Glow a while back in the summer when it was on offer, however overlooked it until now.

The L'oreal Lip Glow is more of less the equivalent of the Diorcolour Reviver Balm (which I really love and have a past post on Here).

The main two differences between the Dior and L'oreal lip glows is the colour and the texture.

I find that the Dior reviver turns a more blueish pink on me, while the L'oreal turns a more berry colour.

Texture wise the Dior has a creamier more moisturising feel, while the L'oreal is more gelly and light feeling on the lips.

Both pretty different but the same, and for those reasons I love them both :)

Well maybe the Dior one slightly more because of the packaging ;)

Anyway I shall be back soon with more bloggings on Bioderma (I actually found it online) and Moroccanoil Shampoo.

In the meantime thanks for reading, and I hope you've all done your Christmas shopping.

Take Care. X
