Randomworld - Ultimate Quirky Travellers Beach Bag!!

Another fantastic bargain to take on holiday with me. This quirky bag is absolutely ideal if you are a serial traveller like me. Not only is it versatile and practical it has a really unique and quirky design printed on it.

Stylementor Buble Hem Smock Dress

I bought this fab Stylementor dress as a beach coverup. I thought because it was a tube style dress and had soft sheen fabric it would be easy to get on and off and would also shrug off the sand I always seem to get everywhere when i'm on holidays.

News Retro Halterneck Bikini

A cool mocha and pink number by Hong Kong swimwear brand - News. I've just bought this bikini for myself and the quality is totally excellent for the money I paid for this. Ideal for the summer vacation period!

Holiday Palette Roundup

By: Lucy Seagraves

Few things thrill a girl more than a great makeup palette. There’s just something about having multiple color options at your fingertips that makes you feel like Gucci Westman herself. Here are some of the best palettes to gift this holiday season - perfect for your color-shy sister, lipstick loving mom and your makeup collector best friend.

Mission: Party Dress

December is here. You have probably already received (or will receive) a barrage of Holiday Party invites. You search your closet, and only find the little black dress you wore last year. Sigh.

Have no fear! Head to Nordstrom (or Nordstrom.com). I was just at the Nordstrom near me solving my own festive dilemma. Nordstrom has dresses that fit any body type and budget.

Juniors: If you can get away with shopping in the Junior’s department like one of my fit and fabulous girlfriends, you can really score a major deal. And, I may be just a tad jealous, but enough about me. My girlfriend found this adorable yet evening-ish jersey, v neck number for fifty bucks! It was made by a brand called Velvet Torch and comes not only in the dreaded basic black, but also beautiful jewel tones like a royal blue and a deep red.

I bet you are wondering what I bought for my holiday festivities. Well, after picking up some shoes in Brass Plum (that is what Nordstrom’s Junior’s Department is called) we headed to the Misses Department.

Misses: I scored an awesome, fun and flirty number by Calvin Klein for under a hundred dollars! I also wanted something un-black and I found it in a lovely sage green. My dress is a lovely silk Charmeuse that falls just above the knee and has a drop hem so that when I twirl it will have a fun, floaty effect. And there will be twirling. ‘Tis the season!
