Win! Ylang Ylang Incensa with Bodhi and Fashion-Mommy!
As regular readers to Fashion-Mommy know, I am a huge fan of Bodhi toiletries. I first became aware of this brand when I received some travel bottles in a Harvey Nichols goodie bag, and I became addicted to the fabulous scents that left your skin feeling silky smooth and pampered. My favourite product has to be the Ylang Ylang Incensa bath therapy.

White Stuff Autumn Collection – 1990s revisited
I’ve just spent some time perusing the new collection of one of my favourite High Street Stores. White Stuff, and there’s definitely some nostalgia for the 1990s in the range. This collection is full of chunky layers, winter florals and muted shades that evoke the early 1990s grunge collection of Marc Jacobs for Perry Ellis. Long maxi skirts teamed with the cosiest chunky knit sweaters, leggings and boots teamed with long-line knits and thick knotted scarves and pretty dark floral dresses are all included in the fabulous range.

Benefit launching new beauty bar in Harvey Nichols,Birmingham.
Don’t you just love Benefit cosmetics! Where would we be without Benetint to add a bit of colour to our cheeks, or High Beam to highlight those (almost) non-existent cheekbones. For those of you who don’t know the brand, Benefit is a fabulously quirky collection of make-up and beauty must haves that come in the most amazing retro packaging that make them appear to have come direct from a 1950s make-up bag. They bring the fun into make-up, and from September 3rd, they will be available from Harvey Nichols, Birmingham, when a new Benefit bar is opened. This is great news for all beauty fans. Harvey Nichols already has…
