STEP BACK INTO SPRING

Happy hump day bubbleheads!

Spring is in the air even though when you look out you're window it doesn't look like it. I'm heading up to galway next week and that called for a new outfit ;). Scrolling through boohoo website I came across a mint coloured pleated skirt actually came across it awhile back this was my opportunity to get it. I decided a tshirt would look great with the outfit choice I was going for.

Recently seen on some of our favourite female celebs walking the carpet for the Oscars 2015. From Jennifer Aniston in a Versace gown to Zoe Saldana pale pink Atelier Versace gown these soft hues are still bang on trend. That made my think that it was high time we stepped into spring with some of the season freshest pastel clothing piece's. Oh all those lovely pinks, purples,greens and blues,so here are my pick of the bunch:

Boohoo blush crossover chiffon playsuit 20.00

Littlewoods Dolly coat 97.00

COCOA BROWN TAN

Happy Saturday Bubbleheads :)

Hoping that all my bubbleheads out there know the name Cocoa Brown. If not shame on you, shame on you (only joking). If not here is a quick run down it is the number one selling tan and a most in the beauty box. I use this tan when popping out with the girls for a night on the tiles or just to give me a golden glow for a few days. Business woman Marissa Carter career has skyrocketed in the last few years an will continue for sure and you can see why. It's great seeing a Irish business doing so well not just here but all across the globe.

Why love Cocoa Brown?

Cocoa Brown tan is simply a hassle free, easy-peasy spreadable mousse tan. The tan is so light and doesn't smell it just glides onto any part of your body. The packaging is quite girly too done in a hot pink mousse bottle. It's so handy that it can just be thrown on at any time. When I'm lucky enough to pop off anywhere I pop in a bottle or even their little travel size bottle in my suitcase. Just recently it came with me to Galway for my first ever blogger event. Better we got to listen to Kate Kelly a PR from Cocoa Brown and there was a little surprise in our goodie bag. Cocoa brown tough stuff 3 in 1 body scrub of course i was excited! Last summer I didnt use my products as much as i spent the time getting spray tans. There were a lot of events happening I just felt this was quicker and i didnt have to worry about putting tan on myself. It was a life saver of course and surprise,surprise it was Cocoa Brown. This brand I haven't a bad word to say about,Cocoa Brown all the way :). Hope you enjoy the piece and maybe Cocoa Brown will be on your list the next time you are out shopping ;)

MY STAY AT THE RADISSON BLU IN GALWAY

"When opportunities come you're way take them"

Happy Hump Day Bubbleheads :)

What a great day and night I had on Sunday in the radissonhotelgalway.com  for Itbwn blogger event. Getting the chance to meet fellow bloggers from other parts of the country and also getting the chance to listen to speakers in the likes of Siobhan McDonnell of Letzmakeup, cocoabrown.ie Tan PR Kate Kelly,Galway Player,Marika of Online Marketing, and Richie from Beautified who came to the event to give their helpful tips and advice,while some talked about their own ups and downs of blogging. 

I arrived just in time to have a quick change of outfits,after that drive in my comfys I didn't really want to stay in them. Before entering the event we we're greeted with a tea or coffee or a beverage.I stuck with having a tea for the moment as the day was still young ;). Then we were told we could enter the room. Upon walking in the room there was an amazing chandelier with pink lighten,cupcakes and macaroons laid out upon tables. Pop-up businesses all along the sides of the room. I had the pleasure of  chatting to Youngblood cosmetic's,cotton-face.com/ vintage clothing and jewels shop, tan organic,Peter Mark and many more. I picked up a couple of bangles that i really like from Cotton-face :).

During the day we had a break to have the chats and nibble on the generous amount of food that was put on the table. We got to chow down on sausages,spring rolls,mini burgers,chicken pieces that also came with sauces. It was back to listening to the rest of the speakers and before you know it the event was over,boohoo. Major thanks go out to Sinead from Yummy Mummy (who couldn't be there on that day) and Siabh from Siabh Egan photography for putting together this wonderful event. This also gave me an excuse to stay overnight in the Radisson Blu Hotel and i can't complain about anything. My room was a grand size for little old me with the bed fit for a queen ;). I was also giving a room on the second floor with a sea view. I truly enjoyed my stay and can't wait to head back to Galway. Which is quite soon as i won a lovely prize at the event for a private gourmet tasting meal which will have 6 other bloggers. Hope you enjoy reading the piece :).
