Irregular Choice - Karp Koi

This are my 'freaky fish' shoes aptly named by monster, they are one of my more outrageous pairs and call for a certain outfit and event to wear them, i'm not sure i'll be rocking up to the school run in them but not because they aren't pretty or because I care for people reactions but because of how damn hard they are to walk it!

 

 

I don't normally struggle in heels but I did with these, they are so flat and chunky but unlike a wedge they're still high in the heel and the toe is curved, it's hard to explain but they're going to take to working on, they are loud and brash and everything I expect from IC but as an older style i'm late to the game with them, they were limited so I doubt i'll see many others wearing them but that makes them so much more special

 

I plan on wearing these indoors lots to get use to them but they will become a firm wear for any upcoming parties

Andrew Barton Hair Care

I was recently sent a few of the Andrew Barton range to try out and review, I have to say I haven't changed hair care products for a few months, with having coloured hair I really need a good review on a product to risk it on my hair but I was willing to try the Protect my colour range

 

Firstly I tried the Protect my colour range which included the shampoo, conditioner and heat protection spray, all of them smelled lovely, the conditioner was a lovely creamy texture, the shampoo gave a good lather and although it did pull colour from my hair it wasn't a great deal compared to a standard shampoo, the heat protection spray did exactly that, as a lady with short hair that doesn't tie up but is very thick I have to dry and straighten it a few times a week and I worry about damage but this left my hair silky and soft without the product build up and greasy feeling I often get with my current one.

 

 

The other two products were a texture spray and a hair oil, I have super thick hair so a texture spray was the last thing i'd think to use but the XXL texture spray is amazing, it's like a soft hold hairspray without the white flakes, without the stiffness but still controlling the fly aways and not keeping it slick and stuck to my head like a gel, it gave me a slight wave which looked natural and it's become a staple in my hair routine.

 

 

 the hair oil is my new best friend, I swim twice a week and that much swimming is taking away all the natural oils from my hair so this has been a hair saver, it's a lightweight oil that isn't greasy or heavy but give a natural shine and puts some moisture back into my hair.

 

All in all I love the range, there hasn't been anything I didn't like and I will be adding these to my shopping list from now on, the range is for sale in Asda and is reasonably priced so it's worth a try if you need some new hair care in your life.

Bath Bomb Wednesday - Vanilla Trifle

 

I was so excited by this bomb, it was creamy and sweet and smelled like it would be heaven, I watnt to say it was but I was left a little disappointed, I dropped in some 5 gold rings from Lush to give the bath some glitter and bubbles but when I dropped the bomb in I got very little

 

 

The red and sprinkles disappeared and I never saw anything from them again and the bomb lost all it's scent when I dropped it in, it left my skin soft and smooth and the oils in this were lovely but there was no scent on my skin so this isn't one i'll repurchase, these come ready wrapped and have a long sell by but I've not had it long and hadn't damaged the packaging so i'm guessing it's just a scent that doesn't last once the bomb has dissolved.

Irregular Choice - Can't Touch This

When I first saw these I instantly fell in love, most shoes I really like and often if I miss out i'll move onto another pair soon enough but then these came up for sale (second hand due to being such an old style) I couldn't get them out of my mind, they are just the right amount of pink/peach and lime green to stand out with any outfit

 

 

They clear heel is a statement in itself, often they become a talking point and the colours are vibrant and speak volumes but mostly it's the tiny peeping pandas that called to me, you look past them at first almost having to second glance to see them but when you do they bring a smile every time

 

This has become a new need for me and I've since purchase another pair in a different colour way of the Can't touch this style, i'm enjoying finding new colours I hadn't already seen and getting lots of wear from them.
