Monday Delights - Episode Five - I ♥ Easter

I can't believe how quickly this year is going and Easter is this week! 
I love Easter so much! The chocolate, the fun and the cuteness it brings to this time of year. I thought I might share with you my favourite Easter pins this Monday. Hope you enjoy!
How adorable is this easter nail art! Wish I could do this to my nails but I know it would all chip off within seconds of application.

These cute crafted eggs remind me of the Easter activities I used to do in Primary school! They are oh so adorable and would be great decorations at Easter celebrations.

These little Easter bunny cookies are incredibly cute! With the little pom pom tails and pink ears. They are almost too cute to eat... almost.

Pastels are huge this fashion season and what could be a more perfect time to wear them than this Easter!
I love this outfit, the girly dress and the cute sandals would be amazing to wear to an easter party.

These easter egg nests look adorable and I think they would be super easy to make. What a great gift to give to your friends or family.

March Photo-A-Day ~ Day 19-31 ~ Third and Final Recap

Well today is the last post of March Photo A Day....
Fat Mum Slim has posted the April list and I am keen to join in again this month. 
See details on how you can join in at the end of the post.




I lost a bit of inspiration at the end of the month. Bit too busy at work and I went camping (aka no technology) for 5 days so I got a bit behind.
Favourite day out of this bunch was probably before / after on day 20. I thought it was a great idea and I saw some really cool snaps from other participants on pinterest and instagram.

I thought I would also share the April List from Fat Mum Slim. It is a super fun way to practise your photography and creativity skills. There are no rules, visit Fat Mum Slim's blog to learn more.


Of course, you can find my photos every day on Instagram, Pinterest and on my twitter, just click on the links below to find them :)

March 2012 GlossyBox Review - Active Lifestyle Edition


Glossybox for this month arrived and the theme was products to help out with an active lifestyle. So I was excited what they had to show to keep me looking my finest during a busy week.


 I really like their new product list! It includes all the possible products you might find in the box . 
There were a few I would have loved to get but didn't, but it is the luck of the draw I guess.
You can see which 5 I received.

Power Balancing Bracelet
I wore this for a few days and can't say I felt more balanced, flexible or strong. Then my cat found it and it has disappeared hahaha... Not much to say about the bracelet unfortunately.

Cleansing Cream by Dr Hauschka
This is a unique cleansing cream. The smell is different, really obtrusive when straight out of the tube and you can start to smell all the different essential oil ingredients. The cream is heavy and slightly rough (for exfoliating?). Worth trying in my opinion as it is natural and just a little different from other cleansers I have.

 Thermal Spring Water Spray by Eau Thermale Avene
Even though I have heard of this product from long ago. I think it is kind of gimmicky... I mean, it is just water and nitrogen in a can. I will just say... I sprayed this on my face and I felt... no different.

 Free Shape Hot Flex Spray by KMS California
A little tube of heat protectant styling spray. Pleasant scent and nice product. I am always after a new heat protectant for when I blow dry my hair and/or straighten it.

 Cleansing Body Bar by ProActiv
I haven't had a great experience with proactiv before. The benzoyl peroxide in their product drys out my skin. However, the active product in the body bar is salicylic acid. High hopes of smoother skin :)

 Nurturing Hand Cream by Nougat London
This hand cream has a pretty generic hand cream kinda smell. However no complaints with this product, it absorbed quickly into my skin and leaves my hands feeling soft.

Overall Thoughts
No products that really stood out as amazing but overall I was pretty happy with the box this month. This month I recieved 2 full size samples and the other 4 were smaller sized.  I look forward to using the heat protectant spray for my hair and testing the proactiv cleansing bar.
