Well I did wish for a White Christmas...

If like me you're probably having heart palputations about what presents to buy, we've kinda gotten through the chrimbo parties and sparkles...BUT after the weekends snow stopper, if like me you couldn't get everything online, its off to the shops we go...hi ho hi hoooo.

So here are a few ideas for the kids without being too cliche ...

For Nieces/Nephew/ and other littlens...


If your littlens are lucky enough to have a Wii console, the game of the moment seems to be Epic Mickey.. cheapest place to buy off the high street is HMV £29.99, they also give away a Bonus DVD.

Monsoon Accessorize have the most adorable girl clothes, just incase you haven't noticed . We have been having the most torrential of weathers therefore one can't avoid but invest in weather protection presents, init!

Accessorize has the most adorable wellies and a rain macs of which i'm so getting for one of me nieces! Ssssh



Vintage Rose Rain Mac - £24, Wellies - £14

So, i'm far from being a mum.. however the instincts are starting to brew a little, with my very limited knowledge, I felt the rain mac is heavy enough to protect, but light enough for layering underneath.

If you're more of a trendy momma/aunty/unc/dad how about All Saints eh?!
Without your littlen looking like an extra from Hollyoaks DON'T get too carried away But DO pick out some key pieces such as the boys cardi as shown below Children Fife Cardigan - now £35!! All Saints now have up 50% off in stores ...



Or how about a gorgeous keepsake for a new born Mamas &Papas has the most exquisite silverware including a 'Once Upon A Time' - Silver Musical Box - £20 Click here to see. They also have up to 1/2 price sale on .



Its inevitable but one can't help but come across things for themselves ish.. I'm not quite sure where the obsession with thicker lashes came from .. it seemed to have started about 3yrs ago my first introduction to the world of Bambi lashes was thorugh Shu Uemura peacock lashes (model on the left below).

I digress .. in Fenwicks Bond Street, I came across RevitaLash an intensive lash and brow treatment http://www.revitalash.com/ to be honest the interest in this product was less about me and more about the people closest to me.... It is my belief that one should only enhance ones beauty, not try to make it 'better' by changing into something that they're not..i.e, appreciate your own beauty don't try to chase others.. anywhoo Revitalash is a lash conditioner, this brand also has a Brow conditioner the story behind the brand is ... Revitalash® was developed by Dr. Michael Brinkenhoff as a special gift for his wife, Gayle, while she was recovering from breast cancer. Intensive chemotherapy treatments had damaged Gayle’s once-beautiful eyelashes, leaving them sparse, breakable and fragile.

After extensive research with a team of talented cosmetic chemists, Dr. Brinkenhoff formulated an eyelash conditioner that, after just a few weeks, gave a renewed look of vitality to Gayle’s eyelashes.

Soon friends and family wanted to know Gayle’s secret to beautiful looking eyelashes. Gayle knew immediately the perfect name for the amazing eyelash conditioner that had given her eyelashes a renewed look of vitality: Revitalash®.

Thus, a new product was born; and a formula created originally for just one special woman has become a product available to women everywhere who want to have beautiful looking eyelashes.

Gayle and Michael are committed to donating a portion of the proceeds from RevitaLash® sales to benefit non-profit breast cancer research and education initiatives.

Revitalash is to be used as a treatment, it seems a difference can be noticed in month, over six months is suppose to be the proper period to notice a real difference.

From £69 - 99 for a 3 - 6 month treatment.


LAST THING ...

After My miu miu discovery I had a mini obsession with designer/chic stationery bags for gadjety uses.. gone on have a whirl ... ;)
