Olsen Twins at Stylistpick...

My blog has taken a serious back seat recently. I hate not being more on top of things, more committed to my hobbies instead of being a lazy bum when I have some free time. Life seems to be going way too fast at the moment.. My maternity leave is nearly up, my return to work is literally round the corner, exciting (and even more tiring) times ahead!


So the gorgeous and ever so stylish Olsen twins launched a clothing range for Stylemint in the US a few months back, and now thanks to Stylistpick (the same site that Cheryl Cole launched her shoe range), us Brits now have the pleasure of getting involved in the new collection. It's simple, slouchy, jersey styles that the twins love and it is a more affordable range than their high-end collection The Row.

Grazia, Vogue and the Daily Mail called the collection ‘gorgeous’ ‘stylish’ and ‘amazingly versatile’ and I have to agree. It's simple but stylish and very reasonably priced. Emma Roberts and Rachel Bilson are fans and so am I!

I purchased three items (for the moment), a simple grey and white tee, a white and red polka top and a dip hem grey skirt. I also took advantage of a 20% off promotion that Stylistpick was running at the time so I ended up with a bit of a bargain haul.



I definitely recommend you checking the range out whilst it's in stock - http://www.stylistpick.com/clothing - There are 25 pieces in total so plenty to catch your eye!

What do you think of the collection? Too simple? Just right? Purchased anything?

Till next time.... M x

Fudge it up!

I can't believe it's been over a month since I last wrote a post for my blog. I must admit that severe laziness set in when we were having our very short spell of nice weather and as a result my lovely blog got put on the back burner. I've now had my much anticipated weekend away and as I'm feeling refreshed (kind of) I'm getting back on this blog business!

Obviously I've been buying bits during my month off blogging and I'll be sharing these purchases with you in future blog posts, so stay tuned. I wanted to share a fantastic hair product that I've discovered recently in today's post. I appreciate this product isn't for everyone but I'm a serious fan. I have thick (and I mean really thick) naturally wavy hair and I have zero time to do anything with it most days.

This Salt Spray from Fudge is perfect for me. They recommend that you use the product on damp hair and spritz on at the roots and work through your hair. I do this every now and then, but seeing as my hair is a nightmare to dry at the best of times, the less I wash it the better. So I simply brush my day old hair through in the morning, spray this through my hair lightly and scrunch at the ends. The classic Pina-Colada smell that Fudge products have really freshen your hair up. Job done!
Minimal effort, boho just-got-out-of-bed look achieved! You like? You used this or any other salt-sprays? Thoughts?

Till next time... M x
