Orangey Goodness - Neroli Scented Beauty Favs



Earlier this week I read a post by blogging maven LibertyLondonGirl about the fabulous orange blossom scented Naked shower gel which got me thinking about all the delicious neroli-scented beauty products I use.  It's a tricky scent to get right and good ones are few and far between so I thought I'd share some of my favourites with you for any fellow neroli fans out there.

Pictured above: John Masters Organics Blood Orange & Vanilla body wash - a sugary sweet shower gel that has a light orange sherbet style scent which is delicate but still lingers. I adore this and can never resist these mini bottles (despite the fact they are a real pain to get anything out of) at the till in Whole Foods which I pick up along with the Citrus & Neroli Detangler which not only smells divine but is incredibly moisturising despite its fairly lightweight feel when you bang it out of the little bottle. 

The L'Occitane Neroli perfume is sadly discontinued - I'm still making my way through a stockpile I brought back from Paris from a store that was selling their remaining bottles off. It's the most intoxicating, richly exotic fragrance that never fails to solicit compliments, often from complete strangers. I adore this and am beyond gutted that it's gone forever.


Pictured here: Ojon Dry Recovery Hydrating Shampoo and the matching Conditioner - incredible, sexy neroli scent that stays in your hair overnight as well as being some of the best hair products for my dye-nuked hair I've ever found. These both come in those giant bottles too which I tend to get from John Lewis or QVC as they last for ages and work out much better value. Lastly, Origins High Potency Night-A-Mins - one of my go-to moisturisers which has a remarkably peppy citrus scent much zingier than you'd expect from a night cream.

Patricia Field's Online Store Pick - Wonderful Wigs!


Flame haired fashion maven Patricia Field is probably best known for her work as wonder-stylist on Sex & The City, but if you're ever in NYC you must visit her store at 306 Bowery too. It's a veritable treasure trove of gaudiness and glitter, quirky accessories, in your face fashion and above all else, FUN. Every time I go in, it makes me smile.

If you can't get to New York though, her website now ships internationally and these awesome wigs will give you just a tiny taste of the kind of thing on offer. For drag, dress up or just, y'know, cos you feel like it, who wouldn't want a Hello Kitty wig??  Or, for when your Spirithood just isn't enough, how about the pink fluffy rabbit wig with the big ears? Have a look over at www.patriciafield.com

Multi Coloured Crimps on the NYFW Catwalk

OK so I love me some Jeremy Scott, any FFYW reader will know that, though with his new collection for Autumn / Winter 2012/13 I found a lot of the looks a little flat and 'Cyber Dog'-slash-festival stall wear for my liking but OH the hair!  Check out the awesome crimped bleach blonde bobs with colour flashes to match the outfits from yesterday's New York Fashion Week show. Jezza always does give good hair... The 90s Bart Simpson prints and emoticon pieces were fun too as well as the multicoloured fur chubbies (I do hope it's faux though). Have a look.... (all pics courtesy of Style.com - catch images of the full collection here)

Sportmax Pastel Fade Heels & Matching Hair


I am so coveting these Tiffany blue/green coloured heels with the faded pastel heels from Sportmax that I saw in the Observer.  I'm not quite sure why but they make me want to lick them - maybe it's a subconscious ice cream type thing.  I'm really into fades at the moment from these heels to my hair which is currently an autumnal dark auburn fading through a variety of reds through to strawberry blonde ends that border on the colour of Fruit Salad Chewits, although I'm feeling one of these looks as my next hair move...  Check out Bleach London's site for more work-unfriendly hair dyespiration.

HILLARY CLINTON, STEP AWAY FROM THE SCRUNCHIE

What on earth was Hillary Clinton thinking WEARING A SCRUNCHIE to blast Syria and Belarus on their human rights record?  I actually had to look up what she was talking about I was so distracted by her hair horror. I have no words.

QUEEN BEY RUNS GLASTONBERRY


Glastonbury 2011 was OWNED.


The hair. The sequins. The thighs. The first woman to headline the main Pyramid Stage in the festival's history. And then there were the songs.


I LOVE YOU BEYONCE.
