Take a Fashion Pill and call me in the morning


If you like you’re your online shopping fast with a healthy dose of current trend, you’ll love Fashion Pills. Based in Spain, the brand specialises in “the fashion lovers and addicts, the ones who never conform or play by the rules.”

Their team is constantly looking for the latest trends and styles, but more than anything they look to people like you for inspiration. From their Fashion Guides, Lookbooks and editorials, they concentrate on staying on the cutting edge so you can always stay connected.


I love this black and white dress from their own ‘FP’ collection. It’s reduced to just £22 in the sale! It’s got a serious vibe of the ‘Herve Legers’ about it, obviously at a fraction of the cost. I’ll be wearing it with my favourite Zara jumper in the day and with my bestest Sophia Webster heels at night. I’ll take a snap when I actually brave the weather for an evening out. In the meantime, here are some shots of the outfits I’ve planned.

Banish breakouts, prevent their return



If your skin is anything like mine, it will be a fairly pleasant dream one day and a veritable nightmare the next. There are many things that can affect how your skin behaves; stress, lack of sleep, pollution and poor diet to name but a few. Fortunately, there is a treatment that can help to keep it on the straight and narrow: Murad Blemish Clearing Solution.

Unlike other topical acne treatments, it isn’t packed full of alcohol, which can make your skin flare up. The gel-like formula actually calms your skin down as it works, reducing redness and relieving sensitivity.  It seems to reduce the oiliness too, which is a blessing. You can use it on your face, neck and chest, which is handy for the monthly breakouts I tend to endure.

Obviously, different things work for different people, but this is something I find really effective. Actually, 96% of users had clearer skin after using it for 72 hours.


Murad is a great skincare brand; definitely worth checking out if you haven’t tried their products yet.
