The newly invented 'Orange You Glad Monday' (based on the fact it's a bit sunny, and I like orange stuff today) is drawing to a close, but there's still time to make one more orange-themed post. Phew!



Whilst we all love a bit of a MAC, it's fair to say that their packaging lacks wow factor sometimes. The new Heatherette and Fafi ranges have livened things up a bit, but the super-MAC-addicts over at Specktra have been looking further afield, investigating MAC packaging worldwide. This fabulous citrus selection was discovered by one member, although they don't mention where. I love it!

Thanks to Specktra for the picture.

Go on, girl! Ms Winehouse paid a visit to Blake today, and looked a lot better than the last time we saw her. I love her like this -- very Priscilla Presley. Hair first, skin next, come on Amy, we can do it!

In other hair news...


The lovely Billie Piper has gone ginge. What do you reckon? Heat thinks she looks like Isla Fisher on a rough day, but I think it looks cute.

I'm not a big one for quick fixes and so-called miracle products, preferring instead to work at making a difference to things or accepting things the way they are. That being said, this sample popped through the door this morning and, honest honest honest guv'nor made an amazingly big difference. I'm converted.

Too Faced Wrinkle Injection is a neutral coloured substance that looks and feels a bit like foundation. Dab a teeny tiny bit onto your wrinkles and creases, rub gently, and... well, that's it! As if by magic lines will disappear before your eyes. No, really, it's like Polyfilla. Works well on its own or under makeup, and contains wrinkle-busting mega ingredients lumiskin and mulberry extract for long term prevention. It's available at ASOS for £22 -- cheaper than a face lift, no?

Of course, as a young 'un, I don't have serious crinkles, and I'm not sure how well it would work on deep lines and wrinkles. I need to find a willing volunteer without offending anyone...

All this orange stuff, combined with the glorious sun we're enjoying today, has got me feeling good and ready for the warmer months. No doubt it will snow or something next weekend, but for now I'm embracing the good weather and planning for summer.

An essential part of any summer is good music -- and good summer music means Rilo Kiley and Jenny Lewis in particular. I love the pic above (found on Flickr c/o mustbone3030) -- doesn't it remind you of the new version of DKNY's appley perfume, Charmingly Delicious?

Listen to this, enjoy the sun & have a lovely Monday!

I strongly urge all of you that live near a Body Shop to get your little legs down there as fast as you can and pick up this Guarana Lip Balm. Not only does the buttery goodness soothe your lips to unbelievable softness, but more than half the money goes to the Body Shop and MTV's Staying Alive Foundation, which raises awareness of HIV among young people.

A good cause and a product that people actually want? It's a winning formula -- take note rubber wristbands, novelty t-shirts and fuzzy bugs. Those of you who can't get to the Body Shop can pick up the balm right here.

Oh, and erm, there's free delivery, as you can see.
