Three Fragrances To Mix Up Your Perfume Collection

When it comes to perfume we all have our own tastes don't we? We know what we like and rarely tend to step outside of our comfort zone with that - and to be honest, what's wrong with that? No-one would realistically buy a perfume that they didn't absolutely love, because if you don't like it, you're not going to wear it are you? But with so much choice it can sometimes be tricky to see the really good hidden treasures in the fragrance field. So I've put together a little list of three fragrance that you may not have considered before, but they'll mix up your perfume collection in a really great way...

Valentine's Day Treats - For Yourself

I spent many a Valentine's Day as a single lady, and quite a few as a single mama. So I'm always quite cautious at this time of year about Gift Guides and things. I've been the single girl who struggles with being on her own on Feb 14th, so I know how it feels. I am so lucky to have found the right man, and he was worth every painful and lonely Valentine's Day on my own - waiting for him was something I'd do again and again if he's the end-prize. (Pass the sick bucket, I know!) But that said, he's not really in to Valentine's Day. And with quite a lot going on, a Wedding to save for etc - we have decided that we won't really be celebrating. Maybe a card and a nice dinner at home, but no more than that. But he did say I could treat myself to a little something instead - told you he was a keeper! So that got me thinking to an alternative kinda Valentine's Day Guide. The sort that ALL women can enjoy, regardless of their relationship status! So here's my Valentine's Day Gift Guide: full of Valentine's Day Treats - for yourself...because you deserve it.

Gift Guide: Gift Sets Edit

I don't know about you, but one of my favourite things to buy at Christmas, are the gorgeous Gift Sets you can get. No matter what you're looking for, you can usually find a version of your chosen product in Gift Set variety. The brilliance of this means that you get the usually full sized product that you were looking for, but with added items and therefore greater value - and usually for a great price that isn't much more than the original item alone would be!

Gift Guide: The Perfume Edit

A firm hit with ladies everywhere at Christmas, is perfume. I am overjoyed to receive perfume at Christmas and quite often I 'stock up' on my favourites and ask my friends and family for my daily staples, and usually have enough to get me through the year. Plus perfume will always be the sort of gift that speaks of indulgence - to give the gift of perfume at Christmas is a way of delivering a fail-safe gift that's luxurious and will make the recipient feel valued and truly treated.

The L'Occitane Classic Advent Calendar

It's time to open another Beauty Advent Calendar folks! I am seriously loving this process and I'm going to be gutted when I don't have any left to open (I should probably actually save one for December, shouldn't I?!) Today's Advent Calendar reveal is a special one, it's the gorgeous Classic Advent Calendar from L'Occitane!
