Quick Tip # 7 | Ask for a sample

I don't know if any of you do this or not, but this is something that I've started doing and that I think is really clever.

Whenever I buy a perfume to give as a gift -- for Christmas or birthdays or whatever -- I always ask for a sample of that same perfume and I add it to the gift.  Most stores will fill up one of those sample spray baby bottles for free or for a really small price. This way the person to whom you give the perfume can smell it and try it out before opening the big expensive packaging. And if they don't like it, they can easily take it back to the store and exchange it. Perfume is a super personal thing, and unless you  are buying a fragrance that you know the person likes, you might be wasting your money. I'm weird about smells and I can't tell you how many times I've received bottles of perfume that I hated the smell.

Review | LUSH Dirty Springwash Shower Gel

I know --  I know,  another lush product. I like Lush, you know that. And every time I go to the store I get tempted to get stuff that I have never tried before! They have so many awesome products!

I've not been very adventurous with Lush body washes. Mainly because I really like supermarket brands for this. I love Dove and Nivea -- they're my favorite and the price point is really good! And usually if I want something to shower from Lush I get a piece of Serendipity Soap. But on my last trip to Lush, the girl there sold me this shower gel. It's called Dirty Springwash, and it's a minty fresh shower gel, that makes your skin all tingly, like a cool dip in a mountain spring! It's cool for summer, because it's really refreshing. It has spearmint and menthol crystals, that leave you feeling super invigorated! it's also loaded with sea salt, to help softening your skin! It is truly a shower gel --  it has the consistency of a gel, with just the right thickness. And I love it's color -- it's so beautiful! 

I don't know if it's the minty smell, but this makes me feel perfectly fresh and clean. The smell is really intense if you smell it right off the bottle, yes. It almost smells like mint toothpaste, lets be honest. But in the shower, it feels really good. But don't worry, it is in't that overwhelming on your body. It's really refreshing and perfect for a shower on really hot summer day!

NEW IN MY CLOSET | Massimo Dutti

HERE

-- I love to shop at Massimo Dutti. The stores are always so neat, everything is in it's rightful place, it is such an elegant and exclusive experience... The customer service there is always excellent! Yes, their stuff is more expensive. But you feel so fancy when they hand you over an nice quality bag with your stuff inside... and when you buy shoes or bags they even give you a cotton bag to protect them ! So good! --

FEELBRIDAL | Prom Dresses

It's funny to see how my taste in fancy dresses has changed throughout the years...

I used to prefer short dresses, don't really know why. Maybe because I think they're more jovial and fun. But lately I've been more drawn to for form fitting, classic with a twist, dresses. I still like simple dresses. With not that many embellishments. I still like soft colors... but I'm no longer attracted to dresses with a sweat hear neckline. It used to be my favorite style!

Since apparently my taste in dresses keeps changing, if I had to buy a fancy Homecoming Dress, for example, I would definitely opt to buy it online, to avoid wasting a huge amount of money.

Feelbridal offers so many dress options at really good price points. And they have a huge selection for their Prom Dress 2018 collection... so many styles, colors, fabrics! Take a look, they're all really beautiful!
