Lookbook; Christmas shopping.

Christmas shopping can be stressful enough without having to worry about what to wear, so heres a casual, comfy look that will keep you calm and confident in the december present rush!

Try a T-shirt dress for a casual and effortless chic look, this makes you look like you've put so much effort in, when all you did was throw it on in a bid to be comfortable.

Throw on a detailed collared blouse underneath for warm layering and an added touch.

Put on a simple, girly necklace that will finish off the look and pair with whatever shoes suit your style and desired look!

Wishing you all a merry christmas and happy shopping!

Get Healthy, shiny hair!

Everyone has different hair types and styles but lets face it, we all want healthy shiny hair no matter what we put it through and I've got good news for you!

Heres a recipe that will give your hair moisture and shine, while making it stronger and encouraging growth. Not to mention you'll have it all in your kitchen already and its all natural!

All you will need is 4 tablespoons of olive oil and 2 eggs. whisk the eggs up in a bowl then add olive oil tablespoons at a time, whisking in between. Then put on your hair from root to tip and leave for 15-20 minutes.

Then wash out (using slightly cooler water, you don't want scrambled eggs in your hair!!) and enjoy strong healthy hair after a few uses!

Happy smiles and healthy hair!
