REVIEW | HotHair Brianna 3/4 Wig Glazed Strawberry*

The folks at hot hair very kindly asked if I wanted to try out one of their new hair pieces.  After the success and compliments I received using my clip in fishtail plait (review here) I jumped at the chance.

I was sent the Brianna 3/4 wig* by HotHair in the colour glazed strawberry R29S. It is a 3/4 wig with waves through the ends.  I have to say it did not disappoint. 

It arrived in a lovely box - great for storage. Wrapped in a net, with not a strand out of place.  I was very impressed.  The colour was as close to perfect as possible.  Obviously the texture is different to human hair, as this piece is synthetic.


Easy to apply, with hair grips and clips.  Takes 2 minutes to put in place (perfect if you are in a rush but still want to look fab).  You do need to cover the seam though. I back combed the front of my hair and pulled it straight back, securing in place with Kirby grips (bobby pins), which did the trick.


What I liked most about this hair piece is that it is so versatile.  You can quite easily put your hair up in a pony tail or braid the piece, it blends in really well and looks fab.  It gives your hair up that extra bit of thickness and volume, who doesn't want that?


I would say if you are going to wear this piece straight down, it is probably best worn on a night, just because the texture is slightly different to human hair.  Either that or easily wear it styled up (as mentioned previously) for the day, it looks all the more natural that way.

I have to say I absolutely love my Brianna 3/4 hair piece by Hot Hair...  Hair style tutorials with it coming very soon.

Lots of Love Ash x

TOWIE STYLE | Lucy Mecklenburgh Blue Lace Dress in Marbella

Hi diddle hi, happy Saturday evening!

So, I was looking at some of the pictures on the Daily Mail website when I saw Lucy Mecklenburgh from The only Way is Essex (TOWIE) in Marbella wearing an amazing blue lace dress. And I HAD to find out where it was from straight away... I absolutely adore this colour of blue! It will match my new fave shade of Barry M gelly polish perfectly.

After looking at my twitter feed and realising that a lot of other gals were interested in finding out where it was from too, the pressure was on.  I saw it as my duty to find it.

Off I went on my search.  I tweeted, I googled and spent ages looking. It took me quite a while but at last I found it... hip hip hooraay! 

It is by a brand called Three Floor. 

The 3 Floor Shades of Blue lace Dress was on the Asos website but it appears it has sold out so doing some more digging I found it on their official website here. Which as you may have guessed is also sold out. But do not fear they are expecting more stock in June!! I can't wait!

Keep checking back here and I will update you as to where you can buy them as soon as they become available!

In the mean time why not have a look at some other gorgeous Three Floor dresses here, I am so impressed they look gorg!

Stella Mccartney started off the trend for Blue lace last season and it has been seen popping up all over the high street.  So grab yourself a little lace number and join the blue revolution!!!

My top 10 beautiful Celebrity Hair Braid Styles

Who doesn't love some gorgeous hair braids? Especially with Spring, hopefully, just around the corner. Hair braiding is a gorgeous way to wair your hair for any occasion. Perfect for a romantic dinner date or to a wedding.

Here are my top 10 Beautiful Celebrity Hair Braid Styles and some tips on how to get the look!

  Kourtney Kardashian looks gorgeous here. From the front it looks just like she has her hair in a simple middle parting with braids either side but at the back it is woven in to a complex bun braid.

I always find wearing your hair like this gives you a very youthful apperance. Lauren Conrad and Nicole Richie are seasoned pro's at having their hair styled this way.

 

Jennifer Lawrence looks stunning as per usual with her hair braided in to a bun. She has some sort of jewel braided in with it which adds an extra element of glamour. This do looks complicated but I think it would be relatively simple. 

I absolutely adore this whole look seen here on Delta Goodrem. The hair, the lipstick... oh the glamour!! Stunning. I love the loose curls and volume with the simple braid on top of her head which adds a more current zing to the doo. This girl is stunning and with this hair she looks like a Hollywood starlet. Again fairly simple to copy, lots of volume, irregular loose curls and even add a pre braided hair band to make it very simple!

 

Even though this is a fairly old picture of Scarlett Johansson I wanted to include it because I think the hair style is timeless.  A large braid looped over the top of the head, simple makeup and bright stand out lips. Such an elegant yet classy and sexy look.

This is an incredibly easy look to copy. Style your hair as usual and add a pre braided hair band to finish the look. Katy Perry carries it off beautifully. Especially suits mid length hair and short hair styles.

This is such an effortless look. The styled side swoop pony tail with the one sided braid. Perfect for a spring wedding. The great thing about this style is the messier the better so no need to worry about getting it perfect. Molly Simms models this braided style well.

Brooklyn Deckers hair style here is so effortless yet stylish. The waves at the front coupled with the messy on top braid is gorgeous. The great thing about this hairstyle is because of the effortless edge you can really glam up your outfit. Team with a bodycon dress to complete the look.

I adore this hair braid style seen here on Karen Gillan. It sits so beautifully on her and goes well with her young age. The asymetric braid is really different but still not too dramatic. Wearing your hair like this is sure to bring lots of compliments your way.

 Another Kardashian sister here. This time Kim Kardashian's hair braid is at number 2 because it looks so edgy, effortless and stylish. I love all the different size braids rolled in to one and how it doesn't look too perfect. It works very well. If the rail peiece was any longer she would risk looking over styled but here She got it just right!

And at number 1 with a great style for longer hair is Blake Liveley. I adore this style because it is so sleek and can literally be worn anywhere. To a red carpet event, wedding, out clubbing, on a lunch date. All you have to concentrate on is getting the hair sleek and once it is in a bobble you can really have some fun and experiment with weaving all sorts of braids in to each other. It will never look the same twice.

So thats it gals. Which one is your favourite?

The best Nail Polish Colour Ever!

I was searching through my sisters nail polish bag when I came across the most amazing and pretty colour ever that I had to blog about it!

ModelsOwn Champagne

It is subtle yet sparkly, gold and with a hint of pink. Super fabulous!! I just love it.

The perfect nail varnish colour for matching with a sparkly gold dress or team it with a plain black body con dress and gold shoes!

I always find nail varnish doesn't last very long on me but we will see how long this one stays on for.

My Latest Buys - Thigh High boots, make up, clothes!!

I wanted to tell you all what I have been buying recently.  I am trying to not buy anything else this month as I am saving for a new car but I have treated myself to a few new things... :-)

Make up

I was looking for a lovely deep plum or purple lipstick and spent some time in boots trying out lots. My hand was literally covered by the time I had finished. In the end I found the perfect shade by L'oreal.  It has a slight sparkle - perfect for this time of year!

I was so sick of wearing the same shades of eyeshadow and was desperate to get some new winter textures and colours. I have always loved Bourjois eyeshadow since I first started buying make up and they just happen to have a whole host of gorgeous colours. I decided on 6 and I love them!

Only 5 here as I missed one out!

I love the glitter in the purple. It is still a deep colour, unlike a lot of glittery eyeshadows, and the glitter is quite subtle.  The green is amazing, I wear it as liner and it stays put all day. Such a beautiful shade.

They are also fab because they have a mirror in the lid so perfect for quick touch ups!

And they are buy 1 get 2nd half price in Superdrug!

Clothes and Shoes

I have been looking for a flat pair of over the knee boots. I think they look fab with coated jeans, really flattering.

But I came across these absolutely amazing Camilla Skovguard boots and fell in love with them. They are not flat but wedges so they are still quite casual.

I think the shade is also quite casual yet classic. The suede is just divine.

I simply adore them and they are quite comfortable.

I was also desperate for some new jumpers. I always think I have loads so I don't tend to buy them when I see them but I actually didn't have many that I could comfortably wear under leather jackets.

So I picked up these beauties...

Deep Green Polo Neck, Crimson asymmetric zip back jumper, burgundy v-neck

I love the colours. Lovely deep shades. Much like the eyeshadows actually... I am seeing a theme here which is good, at least I will match.  I got them in larger sizes (12-14) as I like them to be quite over sized.  Wearing them with skinny jeans looks fab!

Current Elliott Combat | Mother Black Glimmer | J Brand Maverick Wine

I also got some new trousers to add to my winter wardrobe. Of course I had to get a pair of the coated glimmer jeans by Mother. I have had my eye on these for a few months and am delighted to finally have them.  These give quite a lot so I got them in a smaller size than usual and they have stretched quite a bit already.

Another pair of trousers I have picked up this month are the delightful Maverick's in vintage wine by J Brand. These jeans are huge with celebs and I can see why, they are lovely. Again the colour is a deep rich winter tone which I adore. I like the fit of the Maverick and think they are really flattering. They are quite short in length for me but I wear boots over the top so you can't tell and they are soooo comfortable.

I also got the Current Elliot Combat trousers which are super comfortable and a nice length. They come up really big so I got a size 24. I have worn them twice and they haven't given much and really kept their tight stretch. They look great with little leopard print ballet flats and a cream knitted jumper. So cosy and autumnal!!

For next month I have my eye on some new fur, a Simeon Farrar Tartan Shawl and some more coated jeans.

Lydia Bright TOWIE STYLE - Green Dress

I have to say I love this cute dress worn by Lydia Bright from TOWIE.

The shoulder detail is just gorgeous... and the brown shoes are cute too!

What do you think?

CELEB STYLE - Lauren Goodger Brown Bag Towie

We ♥ Lauren Goodger's brown bag...

What do you think?? It comes in Black, Tan, Blue and Cream. I think the blue is gorgeoosoo!!
