10 OF OUR FAVOURITE THINGS THIS WEEK

Our pick of things we love from the worlds of jewellery, accessories, fashion, beauty, food and random fun...

1) The wait is over for the latest highly anticipated beauty import. They’re such a steal so our advice is to get your lips on every flavour. 

2) Whilst looking through photography archives for inspiration we came across our photo of the week. Is it too much to ask for us to look like that AND be holding hands with a kangaroo?

3) Our soundtrack to this week is filled with the mesmerising sounds of this duo.

4) Whether you’re a sun-worshipper or you prefer to stick to the shade - this ingenious product is our new answer to prolonging – or renewing – year round sunkissed skin. 

5) We’re making sure our Pimms stays looking cool with this cocktail ring wrapped around our glasses. 

6) This Youtube video still guarantees a smile.

7) Our to-do lists might not seem so daunting if we had this Buddy on our desk… Yes we’re a bit partial to sausage doggies.

8) We’ll be making an occasion out of lazy Sunday brunches with this gem of a recipe. Everyone is welcome!

9) The versatile summer throw-on dress, we love the contrast of a white dress against these blue earrings. 

10) When jewellery looks this good, why not create a feature?

OUR TOP 10: FROM THE WORLDS OF FASHION, JEWELLERY, MUSIC, FOOD, ART AND MORE…

A whole bunch of things we love from the worlds of jewellery, accessories & fashion, food and drink, music and more...

1) This song has feel-good summer vibes that you’ll be whistling all day. 

2) We will never turn down an invitation for a summer BBQ and this maxi dress makes our outfit choice simple – when it comes to accessorising all we will be wearing is this cuff. 

3) This handy little hair saviour is our handbag’s trusty companion during holiday and festival season, plus it smells like heaven. A wee spray of this with this headscarf instantly freshens up tired or dishevelled hair. 

4) Do these bring back any memories? We are getting seriously sentimental over these retro recipes: Prawn cocktail, Baked Alaska, and Eton Mess.

 

5) Our latest fashion blog following - these quirky and cute sisters even doll their pooches up. 

 

6) Totally current and totally nostalgic: these 1960s inspired trousers are top of our pops. 

7) … and this necklace is equally high on our wishlist 

8) Making the most of this heat wave - we’re bringing happy hour to home – we’ll be mixing this seasonal cocktail in our make-shift garden-bar… 

9) Who would have thought this random array of objects could create such a vibrant piece of artwork? Jewellery, jelly beans and cookies. 

10) Yet another jewellery storage idea we have fallen for. 

OUR FAVOURITE THINGS – Fashion, Jewellery, Food, Accessories & More…

Another week, another compilation of everything we can’t get enough of from the worlds of fashion, accessories, food, beauty, literature and more.

1) A jump start to our mornings: this DIY muesli site gives us brekkie exactly how we like it.

2) We are loving this Naked Palette it sits in our handbag and takes us from work-day subtle to night-play smouldering eyes quicker than we can say eye shadow.

3) Envious of everyone that gets to bask in the sun whilst you’re indoors at your desk? We are too, but these sun loving critters give us a strange vicarious enjoyment.

4) Hats off to Queen Bey, in this photo shoot she does it again.

5) If we can’t sparkle like Bey, we can at least sparkle as much as her. This will be our accessory of choice. But are we a lady or a tramp?

6) Absorbing, addictive and completely annoying – we have developed a serious love-hate relationship with this app. Don’t say you were not warned….

7) Seeking gripping summer beach reading? This creepy thriller of the online age should deliver…

8) Summer season festivities are in full swing; parties, weddings… We are always on the lookout for that useful flexible clutch and we think the search ends here.

9) BBQ season is in full swing and this is our most popular summer salad recipe right now.

10) A girl can never have too many shoes, right? This week we are going for the naughty but nice girl-next-door look as we team these shoes with these earrings.

10 THINGS WE LOVE THIS WEEK

More things we love from the worlds of jewellery, accessories, fashion, food and drink, music, movies and general randomness.

1) As tasty as ice cream but won't leave you feeling as guilty! This is our favourite frozen strawberry yoghurt recipe - minimal ingredients required.

2) There are still bargains to be found in the summer sales and we are loving this dress, which will look great on sun-kissed skin. We’d team it with this silver pendant for some serious wow factor.

3) Tis the season to eat alfresco so we take some inspiration for a chic picnic here. Our top tip is that scarves double up as great blankets when it starts to get chilly.

4) An enticing twist on a firm favourite drink, this is the perfect accompaniment for lazy days in the garden with friends – the more the merrier! 

5) Our obsession with 8tracks continues to find us music for every mood. We promise this playlist will brighten any day, so escape with these summer vibes (and pretend you’re not on your commute to work)… 

6) We reckon each and every one of us deserves a little pampering so try this ice cream inspired trio of nail varnishes and keep your hands looking extra sweet by teaming it with our statement ring.

7) This motto for laid back summer hair – which we totally agree with. 

8) All this talk of summer has got us compiling our destination bucket list and this place is top of it… But whilst we’re dreaming for that day to come you can add a Moroccan inspired exotic twist to your accessories with this friendship bracelet.

9) Are you a victim of over packing? Do you - like us - feel the imperative need to be prepared for every eventuality whilst in the air? Why cull when you can just buy a bigger bag: We fancy this weekend bag and it’s spacious enough to carry everything! 

10) We're right in the midst of wedding season – and yes, we love weddings, but why can’t more speeches and toasts be as captivating as this?
