<description><![CDATA[So, my spending ban is officially over! And don&#8217;t worry, I haven&#8217;t gone crazy and bought]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-538" alt="IMGP2418" src="http://alwaysalwaysunpresentable.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/imgp2418.jpg?w=640&#038;h=439" width="640" height="439" /><span style="font-size:small;">So, my spending ban is officially over! And don&#8217;t worry, I haven&#8217;t gone crazy and bought everything. In fact, I feel slightly more aware of what I&#8217;m actually buying after the last month. Apart from a ridiculous nail polish splurge yesterday I&#8217;m feeling a lot more sensible. I feel like a bit of an idiot showing off some of my birthday gifts but meh, I&#8217;ll do it anyway. So, here&#8217;s a mishmash of gifts and purchases!</span> <!--more--> <span style="font-size:small;"></p>
<p>So &#8211; clothes! I got a H&#38;M voucher for my birthday hence why there&#8217;s so much there (people know me v.well..). It&#8217;s probably clear I love a bit of embroidery too&#8230; The blouse has such lovely embroidery on it and I know I&#8217;ve bought a jumper but this has great detailing. The bag I mentioned in a previous post and is&#8230;very neon. Going to use this more than my Zara one when I don&#8217;t have so much to carry. I also saw the Zara skirt I&#8217;ve wanted for ages in store. In my size. Sold!</span> <img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-544" alt="IMGP2432" src="http://alwaysalwaysunpresentable.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/imgp24321.jpg?w=640&#038;h=423" width="640" height="423" /> <span style="font-size:small;">Next up, nails! I bought <a href="http://www.modelsownit.com/products/nails/fruit-pastel-collection.html" target="_blank">Model&#8217;s Own Apple Pie</a> after looking for something similar to Mint Candy Apple by Essie. It&#8217;s apple scented which I&#8217;m not bothered about but the colour is pretty close to the Essie one. <a href="http://www.modelsownit.com/products/nails/ice-neon-collection.html" target="_blank">Pukka Purple</a> was a gift from my friend Hannah which I&#8217;m looking forward to trying! </p>
<p>The Revlon polish in the shade <a href="http://www.boots.com/en/Revlon-Colorstay-Nail-Enamel_1254429/" target="_blank">Marmalade</a> was a bit of an impulse buy to be honest, I was waiting for a prescription in Boots and this deep orange/coral shade caught my eye (like I need another coral/orange nail colour..). I was v.lucky to receive the Seche Vite top coat as a sample from <a href="https://www.whatsinmyhandbag.com/" target="_blank">What&#8217;s In My Handbag</a> last week and I&#8217;m already a fan of how much this prolongs my nail polish wear time.</span> <img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-543" alt="IMGP2430" src="http://alwaysalwaysunpresentable.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/imgp24301.jpg?w=640&#038;h=479" width="640" height="479" /><span style="font-size:small;line-height:1.5;">My brother very kindly bought me the Lychee Blossom set for my birthday. It contains a body mist, body lotion and shower gel. The scent is lovely and fresh and I look forward to trying this proper. I bought myself the coconut EDT and body mist as a treat since I&#8217;m such a big fan of the Body Shop&#8217;s coconut range. I want to smell tropical basically. My parents bought me the handmade bath bomb which I&#8217;m intrigued by!</span> <img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-541" alt="Otherstuff" src="http://alwaysalwaysunpresentable.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/otherstuff.jpg?w=640&#038;h=302" width="640" height="302" /><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="line-height:1.5;">And finally, the </span><span style="line-height:19px;">miscellaneous</span><span style="line-height:1.5;"> items! My parents bought me the two beautiful bits of jewellery to remind me of home. I&#8217;m very much a North-East girl (Geordie accent and all) and these are wonderful. The man who made the necklace collects sea glass from the beaches near my home town and turns it into jewellery. My home is also about 10 mins away from the Angel of the North so this was lovely and appropriate *misty eyed*.</span></span> <span style="font-size:small;"></p>
<p>R bought me the cushion and Day of the Dead Skull, I think they&#8217;re so cool and colourful &#8211; I think he got them from a shop owned by Buddhists in Sheffield. Lovely to jazz up our new place!</span> <span style="font-size:small;">Phew! Thanks for making it to the end of this! I&#8217;m impressed! I was a very lucky lady and received some lovely gifts, people are way too generous.</span> <span style="font-size:small;">What have you bought recently? Would love to see any haul posts you&#8217;ve done <img src='http://s0.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> .</span></p>

<description><![CDATA[There is a popular theory in communication which describes what is a complete communication and how]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://perfumecrush.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/junglee-testimonial.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-298 alignleft" alt="Junglee Testimonial" src="http://perfumecrush.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/junglee-testimonial.jpg?w=403&#038;h=403" width="403" height="403" /></a>There is a popular theory in communication which describes what is a complete communication and how does it takes place. According to this communication theory, when a sender of a message sends a message through a medium to the receiver and then the receiver sends a feedback to the sender, a complete communication process takes place. Hence until unless there is a “feedback”, complete communication is not possible.</p>
<p>In the same way, until unless we at perfumecrush.com get a feedback from our valuable customers we do feel quite incomplete. Because we believe in the above mentioned communication theory as the means of our work review. Through the feedback and experience of our customers we accordingly modify our work methodologies and deliverables.</p>
<p>For the same we really focus on the customer review of our performance. And we are really thankful to one of our customer who bought a perfume from Perfumecrush.com through Junglee.com.</p>
<p>We were really delighted by the ratings which we received and foremost the choice of words which were used for perfumecrush.com’s deliverables were really encouraging. Words like<i> Value for Money, Genuine Product </i>and <i>would buy again for sure </i>were literally words of appreciation for our work style and humbly we accept it.</p>
<p>With such encouragement from our customers, we would like request our other valuable customers to write us their experience so that we may get to know more about their experience with buying products from perfumecrush.com so that we may incorporate your suggestions.</p>
<p>Looking forward for your support!</p>

<description><![CDATA[The Spring and Summer are all about being light and airy, fresh and renewed, and I think your fragra]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:center;"><a href="http://storybookapothecary.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/4lovelyfragrancesforspring_storybookapothecary-com.png"><img class="size-full wp-image-4697" alt="4LovelyFragrancesforSpring_StorybookApothecary.com" src="http://storybookapothecary.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/4lovelyfragrancesforspring_storybookapothecary-com.png?w=625&#038;h=390" width="625" height="390" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">The Spring and Summer are all about being light and airy, fresh and renewed, and I think your fragrances during this time should really reflect that notion, don&#8217;t you?</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">I have tried out tons and tons of perfume samples and purchased many of my own as well and I thought I&#8217;d share some of my favorite fragrances for the season with you all!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.beautyhabit.com/product11311.html" target="_blank">Parfums de Nicolaï &#8211; L&#8217;Eau à la Folie Eau de Toilette</a> - This is, hands down, my favorite fragrance for Spring! It&#8217;s a mixture of lime and vanilla-esque coconut. You can smells the citrus notes a lot on top, but when it&#8217;s dried down after a few hours, you&#8217;ll notice the sweeter scents so it&#8217;s always changing, but also really light and fresh which I love! I don&#8217;t normally care for citrus scents in my perfume as I prefer more deep, amber types, but this one is really pleasant and comes from a really unique brand that I can only find on Beauty Habit. I&#8217;ve actually purchased the small bottle of this because I love it so much!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.beautyhabit.com/product12041.html" target="_blank">Alice &#38; Peter &#8211; Cheery Cherry Eau de Parfum</a> - This is one that I&#8217;ve received as a sample with a Beauty Habit order and was surprised that I actually liked it! I thought it would be all fruity and that&#8217;s not something I&#8217;m particularly keen on, but this one is really nice and not too overpowering. It has floral and fruity notes all through the top, heart and base, but surprisingly isn&#8217;t sickeningly sweet and it might be because they balance it out with vanilla and caramel. I&#8217;m not sure what it is, really, that makes this so nice, but I love it and the packaging is adorable and cute!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.beautyhabit.com/product11322.html" target="_blank">i Profumi di Firenze &#8211; Plenilunio (Full Moon)</a> - This is my favorite perfume EVER. It smells incredible. I think it would be a lovely fragrance for Spring and Summer evenings because, though it is light, it&#8217;s a bit more on the bolder side of things. The notes are all over the place, but they go together surprisingly well. They include mandarin and strawberries with amber, white musk and soft woods so it&#8217;s a nice, seamless blend of that deeper earthy scent with a bit of light sweetness that is amazing to me. I will definitely be purchasing this soon from Beauty Habit ( they have the exclusive on this one ), but it&#8217;s quite unique in that it&#8217;s handmade in small batches from Italy and you know what that means, right? Yep, it&#8217;s expensive !</p>
<p><a href="http://www.beautyhabit.com/product8576.html" target="_blank">Honore des Pres &#8211; Love Coconut Eau de Parfum</a> - This is another nice scent for Spring and Summer, but especially nice for beachy summer days! It&#8217;s very much tropical in character because they&#8217;ve included coconut milk, tonka bean, vanilla bourbon, and organic coconut essence, but all of the sweetness is nicely balanced with a bit of white cedar and, oddly enough, coriander. It&#8217;s really light and lovely, but has that bit of tropical island coconut scent we all seem to associate with Bahamas and the beach.</p>

<p>First came <a href="http://lauramartinez.wordpress.com/2007/10/26/green-with-envy-i-want-my-own-fragrance/" target="_blank">Paulina</a>, then <a href="http://lauramartinez.wordpress.com/2010/09/06/shakira-launches-own-fragrance-sadly-not-called-waka-la/" target="_blank">Shakira</a>, <a href="http://www.perfume.com/antonio-banderas/spirit/men-cologne/10010518" target="_blank">Banderas</a>, JLo and even <a href="http://lauramartinez.wordpress.com/2010/02/23/jose-jose-becomes-latest-hispanic-famous-person-to-launch-fragrance/" target="_blank">José José</a>. Now, my<span style="line-height:1.5;"> </span><em style="color:#444444;line-height:1.5;">paisana</em><span style="line-height:1.5;">, Kate del Castillo, is the latest celebrity to join the club of Latino celebrities pitching a fragrance.</span></p>
<p><span style="line-height:1.5;">But unlike previous launches, Kate&#8217;s fragrance is not called &#8216;Kate del Castillo.&#8217; It is a fragrance launched by Avon called </span><strong style="line-height:1.5;">Flor Violeta</strong><span style="line-height:1.5;">, &#8220;a floral fragrance with hints of apples, violets and musk,&#8221; that Del Castillo describes as &#8220;freshhh and joeeful&#8221; in an impossibly cute Mexican accent.</span></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:center;"><a href="http://younglivingessentialoilscanada.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/peace-calming-pic.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-44" alt="peace-calming-pic" src="http://younglivingessentialoilscanada.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/peace-calming-pic.jpg?w=300&#038;h=199" width="300" height="199" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">I have used this particular oil to calm my especially spunky (almost) 4 year old son. His mind just seems to go a mile a minute most days. When he goes to daycare he normally has a couple hour nap in the afternoon. That means he does not go to sleep at a decent hour most nights.</p>
<p>Since I have received my Everyday Essential Oils kit, I thought I might try using this oil on him to see if it claims to do what it says. I put a little dab on both of his temples and a little on the back of his neck. I&#8217;m not kidding when I say this, literally about 10 minutes after applying it, he&#8217;s sound asleep! It has been like that every night that I apply it. I would imagine you can also use it for over-active children to get them to relax a little as well!</p>
<p>In addition, my husband and I have been using it also, and we both have been sleeping much better too! Quite amazing stuff for such a tiny bottle!</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;Since Light Blue pour Homme was the first fine&#160;fragrance&#160;I ever owned, I thought it would only be appropriate for me to write its review as this blog&#8217;s first. <a class="zem_slink" title="Dolce &#38; Gabbana" href="http://www.dolcegabbana.it" target="_blank" rel="homepage">Dolce &#38; Gabbana</a>&#8216;s fragrance was released in 2007, and went on to&#160;receive&#160;the&#160;FiFi award as fragrance of the year for men in 2008. It currently retails on <a title="Dolce &#38; Gabbana Light Blue pour Homme on Sephora" href="http://www.sephora.com/light-blue-pour-homme-P186402?skuId=1019983" target="_blank">Sephora</a> for $59 for the 2.5 oz (about 75 mL) flacon, and has other products including an aftershave (125 mL After Shave Lotion pictured) and <a title="Dolce &#38; Gabbana Light Blue pour Homme deodorant on Sephora" href="http://www.sephora.com/light-blue-pour-homme-deodorant-P306859" target="_blank">2.4 oz&#160;deodorant</a>. The tester strip (pictured) is shaped like the bottle, with metallic silver accents.</p>

<p style="text-align:center;">*** The following information applies to the 75 mL version ***</p>
<p>&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;The 75 mL flacon comes in a cardboard box covered in a velvety light blue sued fabric (pictured), marking it as unique from the get-go. On the front of the box there is information about the product (<em>DOLCE &#38; GABBANA / light blue / POUR HOMME / EAU DE TOILETTE / NATURAL SPRAY / 75 ml e 2.5 FL OZ</em>), the back lists the ingredients, and the bottom features the&#160;bar code.</p>
<p>&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;The bottle (pictured) which houses the precious liquid looks like an oval from a bird&#8217;s-eye-view, with a light blue circle in its middle. The glass is frosted and smooth, clear enough to view the pale yellow fluid within. The front announces, <em>DOLCE &#38; GABBANA / light blue / POUR HOMME / EAU DE TOILETTE</em> in metallic lettering.</p>
<p>&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;Now, after an&#160;exhausting&#160;amount&#160;of information, I finally get to the scent itself. This fragrance is one that I wear very often &#8211; it lends itself nicely to both day- and night-time use. It&#8217;s beautifully fresh, but light enough not to be offensive. The top notes are of&#160;piercing&#160;citrus, followed by a spicy dry down of musk, incense and pepper (to read more about its composition, click <a title="Dolce &#38; Gabbana Light Blue on Fragrantica" href="http://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/Dolce-Gabbana/Light-Blue-pour-Homme-1068.html" target="_blank">here</a>). I feel as if the citrus smell lasts far longer than it&#8217;s given credit for &#8211; I will be able to smell this at the end of the day despite applying it in the morning. I feel that it is worth mentioning that the transition between the top and middle notes is incredibly smooth. It works great on skin, much better than it does on clothes. For the man who is looking for compliments and intentionally long hugs, this fragrance is perfect. I am a true Light Blue lover.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">What do you think of Light Blue?</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3 style="text-align:center;">HAPPY EARTH DAY!</h3>
<p><span style="color:#333333;font-style:normal;line-height:24px;text-align:left;">Inspired by</span><span style="color:#333333;font-style:normal;line-height:24px;text-align:left;"> </span><a style="font-style:normal;line-height:24px;text-align:left;" href="http://portlandapothecary.com" target="_blank">Portland Apothecary</a><span style="color:#333333;font-style:normal;line-height:24px;text-align:left;">&#8216;s four lines of herbal bath products, we teamed up with San Francisco curiosity shop <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AccidentandArtifact" target="_blank">Accident &#38; Artifact</a> to create four Earth Day gift guides: Desert, Forest, Mountain, and Sea.</span></p>
<h3 style="text-align:center;">DESERT</h3>
<p><a href="http://blinkincblinks.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/screen-shot-2013-04-18-at-4-45-17-pm.png"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-72" alt="Screen Shot 2013-04-18 at 4.45.17 PM" src="http://blinkincblinks.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/screen-shot-2013-04-18-at-4-45-17-pm.png?w=800&#038;h=533" width="800" height="533" /></a></p>
<p style="color:#333333;font-style:normal;line-height:24px;"><span style="color:#333333;font-style:normal;line-height:24px;">From the colors of the Santa Fe landscape to the textures of sand and rock, from the subdued pinks of sunsets in arid lands to the dried out shrubs that brave wind and sandstorms, the desert is full of promise. </span><span style="color:#333333;font-style:normal;line-height:24px;">And, at times, full of empty promises: of a green oasis or a watering hole — the false hope of a mirage. But these beauties are no optical illusions, no tricks of the eye. </span></p>
<p style="color:#333333;font-style:normal;line-height:24px;"><span style="color:#333333;font-style:normal;line-height:24px;">From left: </span>1. <a href="http://www.jessfeury.com" target="_blank">Jess Feury Pilgrimage </a>Woven Chain Necklace, $140. 2. <a href="http://www.sarapaloma.com" target="_blank">Sara Paloma </a>Vase, $100. 3. <a href="http://portlandapothecary.com" target="_blank">Portland Apothecary </a>Desert Ylang Ylang Herb + Mineral Salt Soak, $16. 4. <a href="http://portlandapothecary.com" target="_blank">Portland Apothecary </a>Desert Soap, $9. 5. <a href="http://peterstlawrence-art.com/section/230920_Pottery.html">Peter St. Lawrence </a>Flask, $55. 6. <a href="http://carolkoffel.com/Tumblers">Carol Koffel </a>Tumblers, $25. 7.

<p>Starting at the Bay Area and continuing up through the Pacific Northwest, our coast is dotted with awe-inspiring forests. Within reach are Muir Woods and Big Sur, home to giant redwoods and microscopic moss alike. A feast for every sense, the forest is bursting with musky aromas and shafts of golden light, fallen leaves and shedded bark, deep green algae pools and neon lichen fields. This spectrum can be found in these earthy gifts.</p>

<p><span style="color:#333333;font-style:normal;line-height:24px;">Whether you&#8217;re a seeker of enlightenment, an outdoors adventurer, or a just a regular joe trying to achieve a headstand in yoga class, e</span>very person faces their Everest at one point or another. It could be their ancient pyramid shape or the ores of precious metals mined in their midst, simply the literal change in altitude or the figurative vicinity to the heavens. But there&#8217;s no mistaking it: the mountains hold a certain power, captured perfectly by this collection.</p>

<p>If you ask a deep-sea diver why they like to be alone in the vast ocean, their answers will be as varied as the flora and fauna growing in the murky depths. Who hasn&#8217;t dreamed of breathing underwater with the real-life giants of the animal kingdom, or of <span style="color:#333333;font-style:normal;line-height:24px;">joining ranks with the </span>mythological creatures our imaginations have invented? From crystal clear waters to kelp and seaweed shadows, indigo depths to turquoise shallows and whitewater caps: the colors of the sea can be yours.</p>
