Fabulous shopping sites
Every girl (and well, the occasional boy) loves to shop - but when the weather is fine and dandy it can be a tough choice between hitting the high street boutiques at the weekend - or chilling out and relaxing in the garden or park.
Thank goodness that dilemma is no longer a problem with fabulous sites on the internet such as
shop.com. For fashion - and especially beauty products - this site is a real find.
Another one I've become rather to addicted to (since discovering it on
Trinny and Susannah's website) is
notonthehighstreet.com. It's one of those beautiful places where you feel like you could just go in there and buy nearly everything to make your home and garden look fabulous (it also does great jewellery which is ideal for presents too). But back to gardens,
thecontemporaryhome.co.uk does these wonderful little fairy light lanterns which can add a touch of magic to a barbecue this summer. I'd heartily recommend a good browse.
Anyway, enough about shopping, for the summer holiday is calling and it's called by the way of Sardinia. Sunshine, tasty Italian seafood and highly quaffable wines are but a two-hour flight away. I can barely wait.
In the meantime, our Life & Style assistant, the lovely Jess Edwards, will be taking over the reigns and keeping us up to date with the latest fashion and beauty news here - and on the
Life & Style site.
Ciao for now!
