I don’t think I have watched anything like this before. Kevin Richardson, the “lion whisperer” teams up with the GoPro crew and they all take us to the “soft side” of the wild life…
Simply… AMAZING!

Alternative Kitchenware by Grigoris Kouskouris
Using the finest of Greek marbles, sculptor Grigoris Kouskouris presents his new inspiration: Alternative kitchenware. Simple and elegant artifacts for the passionate inquisitor of the art de la table, these masterpieces bring the Greek finesse and luxury in our everyday lives.
His exhibition “Alternative Kitchenware” opens at the central square of Pyrgos, on the magical Santorini island on the 15th of October at 20:00 and we would love to be there and admire his work.
Although we are sure we will be posting more about this great artist and his amazing sculptures, for a feast of the eyes you may visit his website: http://www.kouskouris.gr

Taylor says: legs for days
This gal did it again. She made me fall in love with her new collection “Legs for days” and I ‘m going to get in trouble spending money on shoes I don’t actually need (Aren’t 79 pairs more than enough? Or should I round the number?)
If you are a shoe lover (or addict like me) and haven’t yet seen Taylor Reeve’s one of a kind collections, then you are missing a lot. Because the “crazy blondie from South California” is a genius who touches our soles (and souls) with her magic brush in order to create masterpieces on which we can step elegantly. Red signature soles are ok, but what’s even better is funky art on your soles that will buzz WOWs all around you! Convinced? Then you should definitely visit Taylor Says.
As for my favorite pair? KA BOOM!!! I’m sooooo buying them!

Urban Decay……..Primer Potion
I have been using Urban Decay Primer Potions for few months and thought of doing a review for you guys. I purchased them from Blanchardstown Shopping Centre in Ireland, while I was there on holiday.
Brightening & Tightening Complexion Primer Potion
If you’d like to achieve that flawless look, try Brightening & Tightening Complexion Primer Potion, before you apply your foundation.
It’s light and airy, oil-free and paraben-free makes your skin look youthful, bright and firm, and foundation will apply smoothly and evenly.
I think this is an ideal for skin that need moisture, it feel wet when you apply it to your face. When it dries out, it feels sticky, but I think you need that to keep your foundation/make up staying on and last longer.
Eyeshadow Primer Potion
This is a favourite among beauty gurus and bloggers, if you have ever watched makeup videos on YouTube or check out beauty blogs frequently, chances are that you have heard about “Urban Decay Eye Shadow Primer Potion” quite often.
For all you divas who loves to wear eye shadow, primer is a necessity. This primer evens out the colour of your eyelids, prevents creasing and helps eye shadow stay on longer. The only thing is, it makes the eye shadow stick so well, blending anything becomes a nightmare. So I personally use this primer when I use a single colour on my lids, and then add some eye liner.
If you have used or currently using the above products, it would be great if you share your opinion with us.

Springsheen for Summer …..
Hello girls,
I have planned my summer holidays to the beautiful Balearic Island of Ibiza. Here are few things I bought recently for my trip. I put an out- fit idea, which I’ll be wearing to hang out at my favourite place, Blue Marlin, Ibiza with my hubby.
I’ll be dressing up this beautiful (1) kimono style top from Miss Selfridges over my bikini with these stunning (2) statement necklace I bought from Stradivarius. And pair it up with these (3) snakeskin wedges from New look. As for makeup it’ll be a bit of (4) Maybelline BB cream in Universal glow over (5) Mac Prep + Prime SPF 50 (6) MAC Spring Sheen Blush and (7) Bobbi Brown Nectar Brightening Lip gloss.
Mac Springsheen Blush – It’s got the most gorgeous Peachy colour. It’s a sheertone shimmer blush, which is perfect for day time. As it’s got a gold (with a hint of pearl) finish to it, it works as a highlighter as well. A very subtle summary colour and one of those blushes that gives you a fresh look. If I use it for a night out I would combine it with another blush just to make the colour pop.
Statement Necklace – Look at this beautiful, beautiful statement necklace (was on for a bargain @ sale). I love the colour turquoise, as it goes with most of my clothes in the wardrobe and can be worn in so many different ways, ie; with my LBD, jeans with a simple t-shirt etc etc.
Blue Marlin, Ibiza – It may not be the place for everyone, but I absolutely love everything about this place. The music, the people, food, the beach etc etc. It’s such an amazing place that instantly makes me happy. I will be posting some photos for you when I am there. http://www.bluemarlinibiza.com
You know……it’s ok to love being the centre of attention sometimes……..
Love,

Bio-Oil it away!!!!
As a result of having my 3 gorgeous babies, my tummy was left with some stretch marks, which I was very conscious of.
Though Bio-Oil has been in the market since 2002 and I had heard about it, I only bought it few years ago while I was on holiday in Dublin, during one of my many shopping trips to Pavilion Shopping Centre in Swords.
I tried it and it made my skin feel soft. I have been using it for few years now and my stretch marks have definitely started to look better.
Bio Oil is no ordinary oil, it has positioned itself well amongst body creams to be the best to reduce the appearance of all scars both old and new. It helps to maintain the elasticity of the skin while preventing stretch marks from developing when our body goes through changes like pregnancy, weight loss etc. Bio Oil also banish dryness, smoothes, firms and nourishes aging and wrinkled skin.
It’s worth investing your money on this one.

Shimmer Brick
To get that youthful, dewy complexion, you need a great highlighter that fit your skin. Here is my favourite girls;
Bobbi Brown Bronze shimmer Brick
I am a big fan of Bobbi’s make up line. Though her makeup line is a bit more expensive than some other brands, she offers a fantastic range with lot of natural colours like browns, golds and nudes, which suits most skin tones.
My favourite of the Bobbi Brown range is Bronze Shimmer Brick Compact. Added bonus of this product is instead of just being one colour, it features five different colours in a slightly different shade to each other, so when you apply it to your skin, it gives you the most amazing glow with a hint of sparkle. I use this as an Eye Shadow Palette as well as a Bronzer. Gives you a deep, bronzy glow, and neutral and deep blush shades works well with Bronze Shimmer Brick.
It also comes in different shades; Pink Quartz, Nectar, Rose, Beige and 24-Karat.
If you are looking for a cheaper alternative; Body Shop’s Shimmer Waves (comes in 2 different shades) is equally good.
Nothing lights up your face like shimmer.

A bargain buy…these earrings will instantly glamorize your Boho Chic look.
To let these beauties shine, I paired them with a simply floaty top, black leggins and few turquoise bracelets.
Hubby picked them up for me last week in Ireland in Penneys.

L’Occitane Shea Butter Hand Cream
The Secret to Gorgeous Hands!!
Without a doubt the best hand cream I have used. I say this without any hesitation having tried many hand creams. As I have been 
using this product for over four years, I think I can speak honestly about it. I have occasionally wandered to other brands but I always seem to go back to this one.
A super-smoothing cream, contains 20% Shea Butter, honey and sweet almond extract, blended with jasmine and ylang-ylang essences. Smells divine and it glides on and absorbs to help heal and protect dry and dehydrated skin, and anti-oxidising vitamin E helps nourish.
I initially bought the small tube of this while transiting through Dubai Airport (they also do large tubes) so that I could try it. And I love it! The tube is just the right size to carry in my bag so that I can use it whenever I need to and you don’t need to use very much of it. L’occitane is a well known luxury brand and have a great reputation for their creams and moisturisers.
Anyone who suffers with dry hands should give this a try!
Luv
