Two Peas {Too Cute}

Original article about Wedding Dresses is available on Two Peas {Too Cute}

This necklace and these earrings are so sweet, they’re bordering on saccharine. Nonetheless, if you’re of sentimental inclinations (don’t be ashamed, I too have been known for my mushy tendencies *hugs*) and want to wear something meaningful on your big day, what a lovely option.

Vera Wang 2012 Spring and Fall Collections

Original article about Wedding Dresses is available on Vera Wang 2012 Spring and Fall Collections

Vera Wang’s 2012 Spring collection is notable not only for the fact that the wedding dresses are beautiful (well there’s a surprise – ha!), but also because they’re colourful. Colour has been a flirtation in past Vera Wang collections, but this collection is a full blown affair. Beautiful, non?

The Vera Wang Fall 2012 Collection is a much moodier matter altogether – titled ‘Witchcraft’, there is not a white dress in sight.

As an ardent admirer of anything Vera Wang, I’m somewhat predictably enamoured, but can imagine it’s not to everyone’s taste. I do love the wintery feeling in the Fall collection which contrasts with the more cheery, lighter tones of the Spring collection.

Vera Wang is a heavily influential figure in the wedding industry so I wouldn’t be at all surprised to see brides venturing away from white and ivory.

So, would you wear a black wedding dress??

Lifebuoy Soap Is Back

admin — Sat, 31 Mar 2012 12:09:50 +0000

Lifebuoy Soap was launched in 1894 by Lever Brothers and was originally a red, carbolic soap. It was incredibly popular and it was suggested that every house in Britain had a bar of it (that seems a bit far fetched to me though).

Sarah’s dad is a big fan of the soap and as our home is not too far away from Port Sunlight Village (built by Lever Brothers next to their factory) we used to pop into the visitor centre shop to buy the odd bar.

I read however that a company is relaunching the Lifebuoy brand and it’ll now be available in feminine shades of white and pink with a milder cleansing formula and a fresh scent. Not sure what my father-in-law will think of that!

Emu Oil Heel Balm

admin — Sat, 31 Mar 2012 12:09:48 +0000

When the team at Emu Oil Well got in touch asking us to do a review of one of their products I had just the man …me.

I spotted that in amongst their product range was a heel balm. Now I’ve had very dry heels since I was lad so I thought I’d give it a whirl.

I’d not heard of emu oil based products before so I did a quick read up to see whats what. It’s a natural product obviously and has been used for centuries in Australia to protect against the harsh sun. Emu oil based products are free from harsh chemicals and are non-allergenic.

The heel balm is a white cream consisting of emu oil and includes some tea tree oil, giving the balm it’s fragrance. It’s best applied after you jump out of the shower and have towel dried your feet. The balm is easily applied and you don’t need to use too much. As it’s oil based I found that it was easily absorbed but didn’t completely dry straightaway.

Does it work? Absolutely! Even after just a couple of days my poor old heels showed a noticeable improvement – they weren’t dry and felt so much more supple. I’m still using it a week later so that says something
