Dress 2 Party

Proms, graduation balls, end of year party all require one thing - a dress or I should say ‘the dress‘, probably the second most important dress that you will ever buy, besides your wedding dress.  I remember shopping for my Prom and Graduation Ball dresses and the choice was so limited that my friends and I all used to choose between one or two shops and each dress would be similar, rather than unique.

Dress 2 Party is a fantastic site that I have come across, it is the leading UK Stockist for Sherri Hill Dresses and ranging in size 0-18 there are over 500 dresses to choose from, whether you want something that is short, mid-length, full length or even an evening gown, the choice is so wide and varied that there is something for everyone, for every occasion and for every style you might be looking for, plus some that you are not.   Also on hand are expert tailors who can alter your dress should it need to be shortened, taken in, let out and so on, something I have always found difficult to find when shopping for dresses.

Here are just some of the fantastic dresses:

If you are like me and are never sure what style suits you, what shape the dress should be, what colour dress you should wear, how long or short it should be, then the staff at the both the London or Cheshire Boutiques are on hand to help you with those choices. Helpfully both boutiques are open seven days a week and if like me you find it hard to find something during the week and want to do it an evening, then all you need to do is book an appointment to see someone.  If you happen to find the perfect dress online, Dress 2 Party ship both nationally and internationally with further information found online.

So are you still looking for that perfect dress and haven’t yet found it? Dress 2 Party might just have the one dress you have been searching for!

Treasured Orchid Range - Ted Baker

When Ted Bakers new and indulgent Treasured Orchid** bath and body range dropped through my letterbox to try, I knew I wouldn't be disappointed.  Over the last few months, I have been really surprised at how good the Ted Baker Range is, whether it is a handbag perfume, nail polish or something for the man in your life, these products have been amazing quality.

The Treasured Orchid Range, is said to be inspired by Ted's latest fashion collection.  Described as being Beautifully Feminine, the print packaging which is a lovely shade of pink, is one that stands out.

The products I have been using are a hand cream, body wash and body spray which all feature the scent of rose, so if you are a fan of products with a rose scent, then these might just be for you.

The hand cream is a moisturising hand cream which is made with rose, sandalwood and raspberry, is white in colour and of a medium texture.  As soon as it comes into contact with the skin it absorbs itself instantly, leaving behind a floral yet fruity scent on your skin. It also contains Shea Butter which has natural moisturising properties.

The body wash, which is clear in colour with no tint to it again features rose, sandalwood and raspberry and the scent is similar, though not quite the same as the hand cream, it is much more of a floral scent.

The final product is the aptly described 'vivacious' body spray, in its clear plastic bottle with spritz applicator, the liquid inside looks the colour I would expect the hand cream and the shower gel to look.  once it has been spritzed, again with a combination of rose, sandalwood and raspberry and for me this is the one which has the fruitiest scent to it, the raspberry being more notable than the rose.

These products are available in Boots with prices starting at just £5.50 right up to £10 for a travel set and £15 for a gift box.  All of which make a lovely present and a great addition to your collection.
