Denman Brush | Review ★★★★★

Hey Dolls

So after looking at loads of hair tutorials on youtube I've realised quite a lot of the curly haired girls were using a Denman brush to style or detangle there hair.  I already had quite a good brush that I would swear by, but I decided to try this one out.

Review
So I've had it this brush for a month now, And I am loving it. It is absolutely great on my thick and very curly 4B/4C hair, It doesn't snag and has cut down my detangling time by nearly half compared to my old paddle brush. It was also a great price at £6.99 from Superdrugs, this was the 'Styling Brush' and they have other types, but I'm happy with this one.

Verdict
★★★★★ - Denman Brush Is A Must

Has anyone else used this brush or any other one from their range?

Henna Designs - First Attempt

Hey Dolls

I hope everyone is having a great may bank holiday weekend, The weather has sure been great in London so thats defiantly a plus.

I just wanted to show you's my first attempt at doing a henna design for my younger cousin. She is attending a culture celebratory party today where she will embracing indian culture during a catwalk, so she asked me to try and do a henna design on her. And this is my results.

So originally we wanted to get the black henna as we thought it would stand out better, but the shop keeper ensured us that people had less reactions to the brown henna, and it was safer since it was her first time having it, he also said that the brown was more traditionally worn in the indian culture. The henna is still wet in the pictures but the final results on both her arms and foot came out just slightly lighter. So we were quite happy with the results. And I was very pleased with my first attempt at designing and my cousin seems to really like it

What do you think? 

Have you ever tried doing a henna tattoo before, or had one done?

Fur Nail Varnish

Hey guys,
Here's a review on this fur nail varnish by Pretty.

I came across this fur nail varnish whilst in the pharmacy the other day and thought it was worth trying out, Plus it was only £1 lol. I had been considering trying out the Fur-Effect Nails for a while now but couldnt find them anywhere so I thought this would be a close alternative.

So above are the pictures of the final outcome of the varnish.

I was actually surprised at how smooth the finish was, I thought It would feel a bit like glitter varnish but it doesn't at all, which I think is a big pro. I stopped at 2 coats, as I still wanted the blue to be seen, but I feel as though 1 or 2 more layers would give you a great full coverage fur look. 

Has anyone else tried anything similar?

Accessories Favourites

Hey guys, 

So me and my friend were just talking about the importance of accessories, which everyone is probably aware of as they can defiantly make an outfit, Like a great bag or a Killer pair of heels. As we were on the subject she was saying that you could never have enough jewellery on but I have realised that I usually follow the 3's a charm + Plus a pair or earrings rule, to avoid over accessorising with my jewellery. 

So below I wanted to share my favourite jewellery combination at the moment.

Oldies meet newbies, Jewellery combination 

My Silver round coloured Necklace, Teamed with a silver double knuckle ring and my Double fingered Jaguar ring.

What do you guys think of the combo?

And what are your thoughts on how much Jewellery is to much?

I love her style as she Looks good, whether she's dressed up or keeping it casusal, and she hardly ever gets it wrong. She never over accessorises and defiantly know's how to dress for the occasion.

She also kept up her wow factor whilst pregnant, making sure she always looked Amazing, without trying to hard and make sure she was comfortable. And post pregnancy she looked fab (with a little help from a corset, which she's not ashamed to admit. Defiantly on my Yummy Mummy list.

Spring 2014 - Monochrome meets pastels

Hey guys,

Heres a quick look book I made on this upcoming spring pastels.

These are some looks I would personally liked to wear. As I sometimes feel as-though wearing pastel colours can make my look 'childish' or over 'girly' I like to pair it with a base colour, to help me look mature. (My previous pastel OOTD)

So This is why I cam up with these three looks I decided to incorporate some of last seasons monocrome which I absolutly love and added a hint of pastels.
