| Hmmmm which to wear??? |
I am absolutely loving these two celeb perfumes at the moment.
On the left is Taylor Swift's Wonderstruck Enchanted and on the right is Britney Spears' Island Fantasy.
I love having new perfumes for summer - there is something about the warmer weather that makes me want light, summery, fresh scents. In winter I prefer heavier, spicier scents.
Wonderstruck Enchanted
This perfume really reminds me of soap and glory's signature scent for their Clean on Me Shower Cream. Which I love.
It's created with Elizabeth Arden - very floral and sweet, but not so much so that it gives you a headache! I'd describe it as perfectly feminine and lasts all day.
I love the uber girlie packaging - the charms are an absolute winner for me. I always love charms on perfume bottles!
It retails at £21 - £38 depending on size (30ml - 100ml) and can be purchased at Boots, Superdrug, Debenhams and The Perfume Shop.
Britney Spears - Island Fantasy
This perfume is totally different to the first one but equally as nice.
This one reminds me totally of a tropical holiday! I absolutely love it. It smells of limes, all things tropical and really fresh.
It literally reminds me of a tropical drink you would have at a holiday resort. I absolutely love how bright the packaging is and the diamante bits around the bottle. So pretty and looks like the sun bouncing off the sea to me!
Britney Spears Island Fantasy Perfume retails at £24 - £34 (50ml - 100ml) at Boots, Superdrug, Debenhams and The Fragrance Shop.

I was very excited last week when I managed to pick up my unknown parcel delivery and found this beauty!!
I had heard about this fabulous perfume ring and really wanted to get my hands on one so that when I am on nights out I can keep topping up my perfume hehe!
Anyway, my wish came true and I put it on straight away. Here's what it looks like on...
It's so pretty! The ring itself is adjustable so that's always good if you have slim fingers like me!
Also THE MOST IMPORTANT PART - it smells DIVINE! You have to smell it as you will love it too!!!
Juicy say the ring is for girls on the go! You can slip it around your finger for at-whim perfume touchups! Yes please!!!
It's available now ladies at the following stores:-
Boots
Debenhams
Harrods
House of Fraser
John Lewis
Selfridges
The Perfume Shop
The Fragrance Shop
It retails for £35 and is Limited Edition so pick yourself up one now!! (Or better yet - ask the boyf to get you one for Valentines Day!)

First of all - not that I judge a perfum by it's looks but how gorgeous is this bottle!! I so love how cute all the perfume bottles are at the moment - they make the perfect addition to all girlies dressing tables.
So I have been wearing this beaut now for around a month or so - it lasts for agesssssssssss because it is Eau de Parfum Spray. Result.
I love the smell. It is said to be
A joyous and exhilarating wealth of freshly cut blossoms, natural accents and elegantly feminine wood harmonies.
The scent is a combination of
The scent is a combination of
lemon tree blossom, wild hyacinth, sweet apple accord, black currant bud absolute, sambac jasmine absolute, star magnolia, malibu poppy, honeysuckle, linden blossom, orris extract, sheer patchouli flower, and enveloping musks
So what does that mean I hear you cry!!? To me it has a strong sort of citrus scent - I smell more oranges than lemons and apple - but it is really fresh smelling. It definitely also has a floral smell to it also. It's very yummy and girlie without being really sweet.
The Perfume can be purchased at £34.00 for 30ml/ £45.00 for 50ml and £60.00 for 100ml. The shower gel retails at £27.00 for 250ml. These can be found in stores such as Boots and Debenhams - perfect xmas gift (for someone or a request for yourself hehe!!)
All in all I think that this is a really nice summer perfume. Although I am wearing it currently I would say that it is the perfect fragrance for bare-footed evening walks on a tropical beach.
Now, just to book that holiday...

Over the years I have heard some really good things about Jo Malone. The fact that you can create your own fragrance, the service, how luxurious the skin care range is. So for many years I have wanted to try something.
I don't know though, somehow, whenever I walk past their stands I just don't feel classy enough to have a sniff or a try.
So I was very happy that this little beauty recently from a friend.
It is only a teeny tiny bottle but it has a strong fragrance that lasts for some time. Obviously given the name it has a very citrus smell. It's not typically orangey though - it makes me think more of an orange tree and it somehow more "earthy" than the standard tangerine-esk smell you normally find with orange scented products.
I find it very fresh and light and totally different to anything I would normally use.
It's made me really think that I could enjoy more of their fragrances and will definitely be having a sniff and try of Jo Malone in future. I just have to now that I have been formally introduced!
Do any of you beauties use Jo Malone?

The power a perfume can hold. It can make us feel pretty, special, happy, fresh. It can brighten a girl up on an tiring day.
Not surprising then that I felt full of glee when I arrived home from my nasty commute on Tuesday to find this beauty waiting for me...
The beautifully girlie, crystalised, shiny number is Britney Spears' latest perfume "Radiance" which has only just launched! How divine is the bottle!? It's a girlie girl's dressing table dream!
So like any girl would I immediately spritzed and oh my - I was in perfumey heaven!
Radiance is described as A sensual white floral, radiance BRITNEY SPEARS™ truly shines with top notes of luscious wild berries and soft dewy petals entice and beguile. In the radiant heart, a pure white bouquet of tuberose, jasmine, orange flower and iris exudes unforgettable femininity. All this wrapped in captivating cashmere woods, luminous amber with the sensual glow of musk. Discover what its like to shine brightly with radiance BRITNEY SPEARS™.
There is a sweet, floral scent when Radiance is first sprayed, but not the sickly sweet you can get with some perfumes. After a few moments you are met with a hint of musk. It's very different to her early perfumes, which I always founda a teeeeny bit too sweet. Radiance is more wearable and definitely more grown up, which I like because I know lots of girls who have been using Britney's perfumes for years and believe that this scent provides for the transition from teen to adult.
What I really like is that because it is eau de parfum I spray it in the morning and can still smell it throughout the day. It's not overpowering, just a subtle scent that lingers with you.
Without a doubt it is the perfect present for a girlie who already likes Britney Spears' previous perfumes, as it is still very feminine. Perhaps more surprisingly though, for those of you that tend to stick to more muted perfumes, I would definitely urge you to have a look (and a sniff) at this. You should be pleasantly surprised. And at £28 for 50ml it's a super bargain.
If you fancy smelling delish too you can get yourself a bottle here. I know I will be buying when I run out(which given my addiction to it already will probably be quite soon!).
