Discovery Club from The Fragrance Shop

I received an email from The Fragrance Shop about their new venture, Discovery Club and was offered the opportunity to try out a box to review.

If you're not familiar with Discovery Club, think of it as a perfume version of Glossybox or Birchbox. The Fragrance Shop Send out the Discovery Club box quarterly with an annual subscription costing £25. 5p from every subscription and subsequent transactions at The Fragrance Shop is donated to Rays of Sunshine children's charity and so far over £100,000 has been donated!

I was sent the 4th edition of the box, which contains 6 new fragrances and vouchers to purchase the fragrances £10 off!

Upon receiving the box, it was presented really nicely in a smart black box, with the samples and voucher booklet wrapped up in chic tissue paper. This edition contains Si by Armani, Jour by Boss, Untold by Elizabeth Arden, Aura by Loewe, La Vie Est Belle Eau Legere by Lancome and Made to Measure by Gucci (for men). I actually received Si by Armani for my birthday and I love it! It's a very elegant scent with pretty floral tones and almost a pink grapefruit smell. So pretty and I will definitely be using the £10 voucher to repurchase this one.

Jour by Boss is a crisp fragrance with a blend of white flowers and citrus. It's very pretty and perfect to wear during the day. Untold by Elizabeth Arden is gorgeous! So pretty and feminine; it's floral and fruity and has the kind of scent, which will keep heads turning all day. Aura by Loewe is my least favourite. It's floral but slightly too woody and spicy for me. It smells a bit too grown up for my taste. La Vie...by Lancome smells like femininity in a bottle! Very fruity with a touch of jasmine and vanilla. So pretty! Made to Measure by Gucci is the only men's eau de toilette in the box and it is fronted by the gorgeous James Franco, so I'm sold. Very masculine with notes of lavender, bergamot, nutmeg and leather. I spritzed it on Darren and it smells goooooooooood!

Rihanna's Campaign For Armani Jeans

Ooh...check out these steamy and gorgeous campaign ads for Armani Jeans, starring the beautiful Rihanna!

Rhi Rhi has replaced the vampy Megan Fox (good choice Armani!) for the campaigns, which have been shot in sultry monotone, by Steven Klein. The shots are reminiscent of a film noir, with Rihanna sharing the lime light with a sexy, classic car.

The shots are ultra sexy and yet completely classy, with Rihanna donning a pair of tight jeans and cropped knitwear, with the other shots showcasing her ultra toned bod in a bra and leather jacket combo...jealous...moi??

Rihanna is also the new face for Emporio Armani Underwear...cannot wait to see those shots! Enjoy x

UK's first designer PC tablet from Pierre Cardin!

I receive quite a few press releases daily, but this one really stuck out!

Pierre Cardin, one of the world’s most famous fashion empires - whose clientele includes Lady Gaga and Nicole Ritchie - has launched a tablet computer that combines elegant design with user-friendly technology.   

“Tablet PCs are becoming an essential accessory for today’s busy lives on the go. However, technology does not need to be cold and boring,” said Kam Kothia managing director of the UK’s sole distributor of Pierre Cardin Tablet PCs - eBusiness UK. “Pierre Cardin epitomizes the belief that great design can enhance everything from clothes and luggage to furniture and living spaces. We are delighted to be launching the first designer-branded tablet PC into the UK market. Following the successes of the Prada and Armani brands with their mobile phones, we strongly believe there is a strong market for our tablet PC.”

Not only that, but you get wifi, 3G and a USB port, and it all comes wrapped in a gorgeous black gift box, all for £275...cheaper and more chic than an ipad - you'll get some real style cred with this baby!

I am not really a techy kind of gal, but I love the look and idea of this, and love how fashion and technology manage to combine so effortlessly.

It's my birthday in a couple of months, so please can I have one?? I want to blog on a Pierre Cardin Tablet PC!! Enjoy x
