weekly consumer delights

Sorry for the lack of post of this week. I always aim to post at least 2 times a week, but I have been lacking the creative power to write anything this week. I did not receive that many hauls either, so I could not bring anything new or spectacular to this blog.

One of the few things I received was my anticipated b-glowing.com package. I ordered the Sara Happ lip slip balm, based on some wonderful reviews on the blogosphere, and I threw in a hair-care set from Umiproducts for more volume. When spending over $40, you could receive some extra items from them.


Mmm, I received a gorgeous smelling perfume in Tea, a Lalicious vanilla body lotion and a Pear and Ginger lipbalm for fee...including some wonderful smaller samples.


I haven't dared to touch the Lip Slip yet...it looks so delicious and decadent...


Such a pretty box: it looks like a jewellery box for a ring, or so...



Ohhh, the sparkles the other bloggers raved about. I cannot wait to try this:




I haven't read anything about Umiproducts yet, however, the ingredients sound really wholesome and organic: my poor, sensitive scalp might like these products. I have lots of hair, but it lacks proper volume. I would love to find a natural/organic way to boost volume in my hair.





Another haul I did was @ H&M: yes, Matthew Williamson released his summer collection on thursday. I liked the summer collection so much better than the earlier collection. I ordered some things online, but I bought a denim biker jacket in khaki fabric and PIIIINK lining in the store....SCORE:

I LOVE clothes that mix girly influences with more tough elements...I had to had this jacket.

Another whimsical item I picked up this week is my painterly (Monet-esque) maxi dress from Zara. I love everthing flower-themed right now, I have been fanatic about maxi-dresses since ages...this is such a ME-piece:

Sight, can a person fall in love with clothes? I sometimes can...

What a beautiful dress. I'm a Zara fan, too. =)

The Williamson/H&M collection looks great. The hippie and floral prints are very stunning.
