I had tried some other John Freida blonde shampoo and conditioner last year (at my own expense) and didn't care for it. There was no purple tone and it smelt weird, like the glue you peel off your fingers in primary school. When the opportunity to review the new Sheer Blonde Colour Renew tone-correcting shampoo and conditioner arose through BEAUTY / Crew, I...

A little while ago, I introduced you to online retailer StyleWe with a couple of dresses they kindly sent me. I'm pleased to report they liked the way I wore them so they also sent me a couple more things to share with you! First is this very mod ribbed mini dress.

Thanks to scoring an invite to a couple of fun events, I've had the opportunity to try out some really cool products and for that, I am most grateful. LUSH have just dropped their limited edition Valentine's Day range, #lushloves, available in store and...

Thanks to the mob at BEAUTY / crew, I received the L'Oreal Infallible Total Cover foundation to put through the paces just before Christmas last year. Or maybe it was after Christmas? You know how that time seems to blur together. Anyway, I got it, I tried it and here's what I thought about it. Unfortunately, the shade I selected - Light Sand...

I am excited to be kicking off the year with the first #StyleCost2017 round-up! It's not too play along if you're interested. Download the spreadsheet, use the hashtag and join the discussion! January is a weird month, you've got that post-Christmas period when sometimes the shops are open, sometimes they aren't, you've got a bit more time to browse online and maybe you...
