GLASSHOUSE FRAGRANCES: TAHAA TRIPLE SCENTED CANDLE

Who doesn't love a great scent? When I shop, there is always something that draws me into 2 particular stores and they are Peter Alexander and Designer Forum. They burn scented candles, and I am instantly drawn to their stores!

At the office, we burn Circa Home candles and they just smell divine. If we don't have a candle burning, I simply can't work!

My love for candles started a few years a go, when passing a Peter Alexander store, they were burning the Glasshouse Fragrances Tahaa Triple Scented Candle.  It has the most amazing vanilla and coconut fragrance. So, since then I have been burning Glasshouse candles when I work, clean, play and pretty much anywhere I can burn a candle - safely of course!

Glasshouse candles are natural, they use high quality non-toxic wax and all natural lead-free cotton wicks. These encourage a burn that is pure and intensely fragrant. 

Next time you are after a gift for someone or want to spoil yourself even! Have a look at the Glasshouse Fragrances page for a range of Candles, Diffusers, Body Bars and Hand Cremes in a variety of scents!

TUESDAY STYLE

Lets face it, catching a train is not glam, but wearing stylish clothes and accessories makes it all that better!

Today I went with an effortless chic look, always great for a uni day. I'm sporting my ever so amazing Skechers SKCH +3's because I'm loving the hidden wedge concept. Of course it makes me taller and I don't have to wear heels!

What I Wore:

Top: Dotti T-shirt

Jeans: Top Shop Kristen High Waisted

Shoes: Skechers Raise The Bar Wedges

Watch: Guess Radiance Rose Gold Watch

Rings: Lovisa 

NEW @ THE LITTLE LIFESTYLE DIARY

HOW I WORE: SKECHERS SKCH+3 HIDDEN WEDGE BOOTS

$119.95 Skechers SKCH+3's 

After having quite a long journey of a love/hate relationship with my Skechers SKCH+3's I am now in LOVE, for good! Working for Skechers defs gives me that advantage to have them at my finger tips whenever I want them, but I was never convinced! No matter how much somebody tried to convince me.

But now, after a day like today, I didn't want to wear my ankle cuban heeled boots, didn't want to wear flat knee high boots, I just wanted to keep my feet warm and look cute. So, I picked up my SKCH+3's and popped on my most hobo chic outfit, and they worked!

I love the hidden wedge thing and the fact I can be taller but the main issue was I couldn't make them work, and if I cant make an outfit work, I just don't go there. Take inspiration from Isabel Marant and if you cant afford the glam shoes (like me) take a look at a Skechers store for the fab range!

Bless'ed are the Meek: Wanderlust Collection @ Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Australia

HAPPY FASHION WEEK! I was extremely lucky this year to break my MBFWA cherry and attend my first fashion show. Bless'ed are the Meek put on a spectacular show. Forecasting their Spring Summer 13/14 line on the runway. 

BATM teamed up with NT Tourism to film their Wanderlust collection. To begin, a 3D film played some of NT's most beautiful locations. The amazing Samantha Harris opened the show, wearing a white dress and feathered eyebrows (had to emphasize the eyebrows). The collection featured prints, tailored shorts and vests and chic, just to name a few. 

Jesinta Campbell, Prinnie Stevens, Donny Galella and Edwina McCann were obvious front rowers.After the show I went backstage to have a stickybeak of what was going on and took some shots of the models getting interviewed and getting back into reality! Was a great experience.

What I Wore:
Top: Bless'ed are the Meek
Skirt: SES
Blazer: ASOS
Shoes: Peeptoe
Necklace: Lovisa
Watch: Guess Watches
Sunglasses: Sportsgirl
Bag: Gloss Accessories

Enjoy my favourite looks from the show and a video forecasting the show!

WHAT I WORE

Alex Perry's Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Australia Show

Even though I didn't attend the show, Alex Perry has undergone a whole new look. Perry is known for his stunning and long evening gowns, but this year a party theme has taken over. Metallic golds, short hem lines, leather, lace and sheer all made an appearance on the runway with your browns, yellows, beiges, golds and silvers. I Like! One of the hottest shoes to be at at MBFWA, Alex Perry gave me another reason why I love his designs. Check out the show and drool like I did! Check back later this week where I blog from the Blessd Are The Meek show on Thursday.

THE VOICE AUSTRALIA IS BACK!

Oh how I have been waiting for this day that The Voice Australia will return to my TV. I tuned in at 6.30 on Channel 9 to view the first episode of the season and welcome Ricky Martin into my life with open arms.

The judges Joel, Delta, Seal and Ricky began the show with a stunning performance of Diamond by Rihanna. The performance set the stage for a hotter than fire season! Host Darren McMullen was sporting a stubbier look with longer hair, not that I am complaining, he is quite hot.

Who wowed me: (if it matters)

-Kaity Dunstan

-Celia Pavey AND

-Lyric McFarland

Tune in for the rest of the week at 7.00pm on channel 9 for the rest of the bling auditions! Can't wait for tonights episode>>
