Selfridges introduces Vaseline Pink Bubbly
I really love it when an old favourite re-imagines itself and gets a whole new look. That is exactly what has happened to that beauty essential Vaseline Lip Therapy. There can’t be any woman who hasn’t got a little pot of this in their handbag, but now you can get it in a gorgeous rose flavour at Selfridges, for a limited time only. Vaseline ‘Pink Bubbly’ is just gorgeous! A lovely rosé hue, giving you a sense of sparkling pink champagne, this both smells and tastes fabulous (although you should resist the urge to keep licking your lips…) and helps you to maintain that perfect pout.

Boden are looking to the new A/W season with influence firmly rooted in the past. The High street style destination has produced a collection that owes more than passing nod to the styles, shapes and colours of the swinging sixties. With brightly coloured trousers cropped above the ankle, pretty tops and blouses with Peter Pan collars, and funnel neck jumpers, Boden is full of pieces that hark back to the days of Twiggy, Jean Shrimpton and Julie Christie. And then there are the fabulous dresses. Simple shift styles in warm fabrics like placket cord and stretch Ponte Roma style, in muted shades and gorgeous patterns, these dresses are timeless and…
