The Friday Five

May 25, 2012 in Lifestyle

Welcome to… The Friday Five. Each month on the last Friday, we will be doing The Friday Five which is a round up of products we are loving for that month.

With the cold weather setting in, most of my Friday Five for May are Winter related – so grab a hot chocolate and cozy up with these picks!

1. Crinkle In Time Scarf in Teal from Modcloth ($15.99)

I am loving coloured scarves at the moment and in particular, from Modcloth. They have a great range, perfect for a girl on a budget (like myself!) and let’s be honest, I can’t resist anything when it comes in turquoise or teal!

2. Body For Women LoCarb Bars ($42 for a box of 12)*

Who can say no to strawberry cheesecake – not me! I’ve been loving these bars as a breakfast replacement or to curb my 3pm sugar binge. Not a cheesecake fan? No problem. Check out Swisse Chocolate or Lemon Meringue.

3. EMU Eden Slipper ($79)

I have been wearing mine a little more than I should admit… including out to the mail box! They keep my toes toasty on these Winter mornings but if we have a drop in visitor, I can kick them off easily before I answer the door. Plus they are Australian made – we should all be supporting our own fabulous brands!

4. Nicole By OPI Khloe Had a Little Lam-Lam from The Nail File Shop ($15.95)

One of my favourite polishes from the Nicole By OPI Kardashian Kolours collection. Not only is the colour – a deep teal creme – divine and perfect for Winter, but it was inspired by two of my favourite Kardashians, Khloe & Lamar!

5. Lanolips 101 Ointment from Addicted 2 Lip Balm ($17.95)

If you are serious about keeping dry lips away, this is the only lip product you need. Made from pure lanolin, this little tube will not only keep your lips soft but has 101 uses (hence the name). Personally I have used it for dry lips, dry cuticles, cradle cap and baby nappy rash!

Do you have your very own Friday Five?

Stay Chic,

Super Cute Sleepwear

April 17, 2012 in Fashion

As the nights become chilly, sleepwear becomes more appealing. In particular - snug PJs, a cosy dressing gown and comfy slippers or boots.

In the cooler months, I love nothing better than coming home from work and getting changed straight into my sleepwear. There’s something so comforting and relaxing about being in your PJs while curled up on the couch in front of your favourite TV shows.

Here are our picks for the cutest sleepwear around…

Annabel Trends ‘Rosy Toe’ Slippers from Birdsnest ($29.95)

Victoria’s Secret Satin Slippers (approx $15.00 on sale)

Peter Alexander ‘With A Cherry On Top’ Slippers ($29.00 on sale)

I have owned many a slipper in my time and they are just so easy to collect!! The secret to a good pair of slippers is to make sure they fit perfectly, are comfortable and above all – look adorable!!

Playboy “Love Playboy” PJ Set from Bras N Things ($59.99)

Peter Alexander ‘Pink Leopard’ PJ Set ($69.90)

Victoria’s Secret ‘Pillow Talk’ PJ Set (approx $49.50)

The different types and styles of PJ sets available are so varied and endless. Always keep in mind that while you are lounging around in your PJs, someone may come knocking at your door (hopefully delivering some online shopping purchases), so make sure your PJs are as cute as these picks.

Peter Alexander ‘The Ultimate Cashmillion’ Robe ($110.00)

Sussan ‘Block Stripe’ Robe ($59.95)

Hand Picked Sleepwear Robe from Birdsnest ($74.95)

From terry towelling to teddy bear fur. From cashmere to cotton. The good old bath robe (or dressing gown) can be as simple or as deluxe as you choose. Not to mention the array of colours and prints. Decisions, decisions!!

Victoria’s Secret Nightie (approx $59.50)

Peter Alexander ‘Brush Rose Corset’ Nightie ($69.90)

Bras N Things ‘Madame Spotted Night Shirt’ Nightie ($39.99)

The nightie is the dress of the sleepwear world. An instant outfit. And just like dresses, the nightie can be short or long, fitted or loose, all depending on your personal preference.

Sussan ‘Stripe Cable Boot’ ($29.95)

Peter Alexander ‘Peter’s Glam Sequinned Homeboots’ ($129.00)

EMU Australia ‘Angels Lo’ Boot ($179.00)

My home boots quite often turn into quickly-ducking-up-to-the-shops boots, which I know is a bit of a fashion faux pas (anyone remember that brief period where it was ‘cool’ to wear your boots with a denim mini skirt?!)…but still. A girl’s gotta keep her feet warm and Havi’s just won’t cut it in winter!!

Tell us, what are your favourite types and brands of sleepwear?

Stay Chic,
