Lantana

On a very wet day last week I got to have lunch with the wonderful http://www.secretdiaryofafashionjournalist.com/

We went to a quaint CafĂ© called Lantana on Charlotte Street.

With scrambled eggs to die for and fresh smoked salmon, the portions were HUGE and just what we needed to start our days. 

With reasonable prices and a buzzing atmosphere, Lantana is a great spot for brunch - drink the latte's with caution, they are highly addictive... 

Here's Laura with her excessively large piece of bread, plus my breakfast!

Palmers Cocoa Butter

So I got sent this lovely set of Palmer Cocoa Butter Night Renewal Cream and Line Smoothing Eye Cream.

I
LOVE
IT

The texture of the night cream is light and airy, so refreshing unlike most night cream which tend to be thick and gloopy. As for the eye cream, it has worked wonders! My under eye bags are dimishing by the minute. 10 out of 10!



Night Renewal Cream £6.95 / 75g

Line Smoothing Eye Cream £6.95 / 15g

NEOM

Candle shopping is possibly one of my favourite things to do - pop down to Selfridges and get lost in the aroma of the candle section. My all time favourite candle brand is NEOM - http://www.neomorganics.com/

With a range of luxury organic candles, hand and body creams - the scents are to die for!

My fave is the Relax Home candle - only problem is it's price point at £39 for a candle. Not so ideal! Looks like my Christmas list will be being added to again this year!

Primark Tottenham Court Road




So Tottenham Court Road is the home of a new Primark - uh oh for me as it's two minutes from my work. 

A 3 floor megastore with literally everything you could possibly need for under a tenner - this budget fashion doesn't seem to budging. And I'm not complaining!

On the day of opening I was ready and raring to go and got myself this leather pleated skirt for £11 and an amazing statement necklace for £6.

The X Factor Makeovers

So it's official - we know the final 12. After much long-winded deliberation The X Factor finalists are -  

James Arthur (my personal favourite!)Rylan ClarkJahmene Douglas, Jade Ellis, Ella Henderson, Lucy Spraggan, Melanie Masson, Carolynne Poole, Kye Sones, GMD3, MK1, Union J 

So now for the fun bit, the makeovers - and for the first time ever the Final 12 look like themselves, in a refreshing way, they have their own identities only they have been so slightly 'freshened' up.

All I can say is I'm excited to see what the style team do with the contestants week after week - check out the link below for full pics and Twitter handles!
