Taking care

Thu, Mar 14, 2013

A study was recently performed by Triton showers to determine how we like to clean ourselves. The survey asked 250 people across five locations in Ireland and it was determined that 50 per cent of those surveyed spend a minimum of 10 minutes in the shower with 14 per cent having two showers a day. It is pretty clear that we like to take care of ourselves, especially our hair and skin, which highlighted something to me this week; fashion might be important but we get just a little excited about the world of beauty. The summer is only a couple of months away and so I have been trying and testing some key things to get us in tip top shape for the long awaited holiday.

All about mums

Thu, Mar 07, 2013

This week is dedicated to all things mummy. With Mother’s Day approaching this Sunday, March 10, I have been doing some research to help you find your mother the perfect gift. I always find it impossible to find something for my mum, as the unfortunate thing is, she is a dedicated follower of fashion (you now know where I get it from), so, similar to her daughter, her tastes are particular, and she already has quite the selection of clothes in her wardrobe from working in retail. That said, she is usually very good at hinting to my sister and me as to what she is lacking, and would like for Mothering Sunday. If you need some inspiration this week, I hope these ideas will give you a helping hand.
