Design Glassware by Mont Bleu


Mont Bleu is a company based in Czech Republic with an expertise in decorating beauty tools, gifts and fine jewellery. They are one of the world's top supplier of glass nail files, which bring affordable everyday luxury in nail care. All of the pieces produced are beautifully hand decorated with Swarovski crystals.

Recently I received the Women's manicure set* which comes in a black leather case, and contains a small decorated glass nail file, embellished tweezers and scissors. They look so luxurious and are great quality. Along with the manicure set, I received the full size Glass nail file*, also hand decorated with Swarovski crystals, and since it is made out of glass, it will last forever.
As well as the manicure pieces, they were kind enough to send me a pair of Crystal stud earrings* that are so sparkly and stylish, perfect for the holiday season ahead!

They also have a jewellery section with many different products such as earrings, bracelets, rings, pendant neckalces and hair pins, all decorated by hand using Swarovski crystals.

Mont Bleu has lots of gift set options too, so if you would like to give the gift of sparkle this Christmas have a look on their website, I'm sure you'll find something you like!

New in: October


Naturally radiant night cream: Superdrug
Skinny trousers: H&M
Omorovicza deep cleansing mask*
Rings & Tings accessories*

I didn't really buy a lot last month, mainly because I didn't really need anything. The only skincare item that needed repurchasing was a night cream, after I finished the Simple Regenerating Night Cream. I got the Naturally Radiant night cream and I'm really liking it, I think I'll write a review about it soon.
As I said, I didn't need to buy anything but when I saw those skinny trousers for just £7, my curiosity was awakened. After trying them on and realizing they had a great fit, I had to get them. 
The Omorovicza mask was a sample that I won and last but not least, the accessories are courtesy of Rings & Tings. 

Last month I purchased some H&M boots online too, but they didn't arrive in time to make it into this post, so I'll include them in November's edition.

Have you tried/bought any of these products?

Born Pretty Store Watches



Recently I was contacted by Born Pretty Store to review one of their watches. They have lots of beautiful different models but my favourite was the Long Strap Retro Watch*. It features a really long, genuine leather strap that you can wrap around your wrist a couple of times and gives the effect of wearing a bracelet too. The face and hands of the watch have a lovely vintage look that I really like.

The watch came in a beautiful little printed box, decorated with a bow, and protecting the watch inside is a small cushion. The watch is very stylish and I love it! It also comes in lots of different colours if black isn't your favourite.

Born Pretty Store has lots of fashionable women's watches with styles to suit every taste, from vintage beauties to modern LED watches, so if you would like to treat someone this Christmas (or even yourself) you should have a look on their website. And if you use the coupon NAVILLEC10, you will get 10% off!

Checked Coat


Checked Coat: F&F (similar)
Cotton Shirt: Primark
Oversized Jumper: H&M (similar)
Leggings: H&M
Riding Boots: Next (similar)

Last year I won a competition from F&F and got some credits to spend on their website, it was just before summer so I found the coat reduced to only £15!
The jumper I got a couple of years ago, it is super warm and comfortable but I might need to start looking for a new one. Oh and today my new H&M boots arrived (I made sure to use some discount codes for 25% off and £5 off - 0560 and 1304 respectively) and I love them, I posted a picture of them on Instagram already if you'd like to know what they look like.

Save the Blow Dry Shower Cap

Save the Blow Dry Shower Cap


Did you know that, on average, we girls spend over two hours a week blow drying and styling our locks? You might have experienced the great disappointment that comes after you have a shower or bath and end up with frizzy hair, wondering if there will ever be a solution to this problem. That's where Save The Blow Dry comes in: a phtalate free shower cap with a built in micro weave towel that eliminates moisture from the bath or shower and promises no more frizz or flattened style horrors!

When I received Save The Blow Dry to try and review, the first thing I noticed was the packaging, I love the vintage style picture reminiscent of Soap and Glory and Benefit products. 
The shower cap itself is really big, so there is lots of room if you have long hair or an elaborate up-do that you want to protect/keep for longer. It has a cute bow print all over and a pink micro weave soft towel attached on the inside.

Since my hair is long, I used a couple of hair clips before putting the cap on and then proceeded to shower as usual. It is really comfortable and has a nice grip, so hair doesn't come out after you put it on. When I went back in my room to get dressed and took the cap off I was really pleased to see that my hair was actually intact: no frizz or flattened locks! 

One thing I noticed is that since the trim of the cap is made out of fabric, water did transfer a little to the inside brim of the cap, but it did not affect the overall performance of the product and kept my hair completely dry.

You can purchase Save the Blow Dry* shower cap for £14.95 on their website and Boots.

What do you think about Save the Blow Dry?
