You can never have too many fragrances - right?


Some say my perfume collection is getting out of hand. Well what do you expect for over 15 years worth of collecting?! Now I just need to find space for the remaining box full which I am still yet to unpack...

Love-ly new scent



Just in time for Valentines Day is Vera Wang's latest fragrance - Anniversary. It's beautiful with its delicate floral notes and pretty lilac bottle. Not usually a fan of floral fragrances, I was instantly a fan of this. The mood board at the launch was divine covered in flowers, pearls, pink material samples and wedding photos.

Lancôme’s new spring 2011 collection



This morning I was lucky enough to meet Lancôme’s global artistic director Aaron De May. Born in New Zealand and having moved to New York to work, Aaron is one of the most passionate most experienced make-up artists I’ve ever met. Lancôme’s new spring collection contains glittery highly pigmented pressed powder shadows, a rich dirty lilac coloured Hypnose mascara, soft shades of rose lipstick and Aarons new favourite, the Dewy Glow Base which is a delicate mist (containing essentials oils and which smells like a spa) that you spray onto cleansed skin to prime and over make-up to set. Genius.
