Saturday smellies: our favourite beauty products

Tonight both of us will be hitting the town and going out for a few cheeky bevs and plenty of dancing with our lovely friends. Of course, half the fun of going out is getting ready and there are certain products we ALWAYS use. So while we pamper and preen ourselves to perfection here are just a few of our favourite beauty items.

EMMA: 

Love Spell - Victoria's Secret

This body spray has an amazing fresh yet sweet smell and lasts all day. A must use for day or night!

Bed Head Superstar Queen For a Day Thickening Spray

This is my favourite product for giving your hair a little bit of oomph and the smell is gorgeous.

Jergens Original Beauty Lotion (cherry and almond)

This body lotion is so soft on your skin and feels so luxurious as well as smelling amazing.

OPI nail varnishes

OPI is one of my favourite brands when it comes to nail products, I love the colours and just want them all!

Lush love heart moisturising bar

This makes your skin so soft and also gives it a little bit of shimmer which is perfect for a night out.

HARRIET:

Simple Kind to Skin Vital Vitamin day cream

Simple are unbeatable when it comes to kind-to-skin products that don't cost the earth - I won't use anything else!

Schwarzkopf Got2B Powderful volumizing styling powder

When you have as much hair as I do you need a tough product to get it looking volumized, I simply can't praise this little tub of powder enough and get through a ridiculous amount each month.

Superdrug apricot exfoliating mask

I rarely use Superdrug but always make sure I pop in to pick up their facemasks, I love how smooth my face feels after using this exfoliating one.

Models Own nail varnishes (Magenta Divine NP005 and Ibiza Mix HK04)

I'm obssessed with nail varnish and own pretty much every colour on the planet but I'm particularly loving these at the moment, much better (and thicker) than most glitter nail varnishes which only offer up about one sparkle per coat.

Wilko Sweet Vanilla and Honey shower smoothie

I only discovered this product a couple of weeks ago and now I don't know how I lived without it, hands down the best smelling product I've ever used. Good enough to eat (not advisable though!)

We hope you enjoyed this little insight into our beauty regimes!

Fashion Friday: tailored jackets.

Fashion is all about taking a trend and making it your own so we thought we'd show you how you can pick a  piece and wear it day or night, no matter what you're doing! Following fashion is so easy these days when you can walk in to any high street shop and pick a beautiful piece off the rails but equally we firmly believe you can find a look which screams trendy by wearing vintage - they say fashion goes round in circles so why not pick a piece made last time today's trends were hot, that way you can guarantee you'll be the only one rocking it wherever you go!

This week we've picked tailored jackets - EVERYONE is wearing them right now and here's how we'd wear ours:

This cheeky checked little number is so on trend and has found its new owner who snapped it up as soon as they saw it in Emma's shop.

Emma's styled a beautiful night-time look for it: dress - Topshop/ shoes - vintage / bag - vintage / cross - Forever 21 / ball necklace - vintage.

And Harriet's paired it with some comfy casuals for a daytime look: oversized men's vest - Primark / jeans - New Look / headscarf - vintage / rings - H&M.

You can find this amazing striped blazer on sale at Primark!

This is Emma's daytime look for the stripy blazer: cami top - vintage / leather mini skirt - H&M / necklace - vintage / shoes - Converse (you can always add tights to this look while it's still a little chilly to go bare legged). 

And for a night-time look this is how Harriet would style it: dress - H&M / glittery shoes - New Look / owl earrings - gift / glitter (for eyes) - Barry M / nail varnish - Missguided.

This super cool vintage jacket is on sale at the shop.

This outfit styled by Emma would be perfect for a dinner date: dress - Topshop / boots - Kurt Geiger / nail varnish - OPI / belt - Primark.

Finally this is a work look from Harriet: dress - Topshop / watch - New Look / belt - Primark / boots - Primark / headscarf - H&M / nail varnish - Barry M.

Hopefully that's given you some inspiration - maybe there's a jacket you've had hanging in your wardrobe waiting for them to fill the pages of fashion magazines again or if not why not get out there and pick up a high street or a vintage jacket to complement any look!
