HAIR: The Perfect Finish

Have you ever wanted a lovely salon finish to your hair from shine, to smell, to feel? I can recommend a definite way for this and that is Pearl Styler by Wella. 

This product is more on the costly side than the budget side. You know what I'm like I would rather recommend budget products as most people have to count the pennies these day. But I certainly believe you get what you pay for with this. You also don't need to use a lot of this each time, just a little will do this means it will last a while even more so if you are a person who will just us it for special occasions. 

I know some people don't do their hair all done up everyday. I mean the majority of people don't unless your in the cast of "The Only Way Is Essex" or "Made In Chelsea" but I still think it's good to invest in because when you go out you want to look a million dollars. This will seal the deal. 

I know you all probably think I'm some crazy hairdresser trying to sell you something I wouldnt recommend anything rubbish. I'm not trying to sell I'm trying to advise those of you who want to get shine and finish to your hair. 

How To Use 

So do your usual wash and blow dry, you can straighten or curl or even do a curly blow dry. You then squeeze a tiny pea sized amount into the palm of your hand then rub them together to warm the product up. You them run you hands gently through the hair styling  it in any direction  that you want, with curls you can mould the product through the Chris making them a bit more defined. It leaves your hair with a nice shine. 

You can get this product maybe from your hairdresser EBay or Amazon. retails from £7.99 on EBay and £7.50 from Amazon. I do apologise I haven't got a picture but it is in a silver and orange bottle. 

Hope this helps you all get a lovely finish on your hair. It's just simply a recommendation. 

This is the first of many hair posts I will be doing ranging from product to styles  to advice ect. If there are any hair things you particularly want to know about on this blog then please tweet us or Instagram us nam Essextowindsor.

Clever Cakey!

So yesterday was my mothers birthday. Happy Birthday Mum :) 

As she was getting about her business she had a strange parcel come through the post. (I don't mean for this to sound creepy lol) when she opened it she found a tin. Confused she opened it to find a little cake personalised been sent by my brother for her birthday.

This cake has to be the cutest cake I have ever seen. It is like a minature birthday cake. Small enough to be packaged and posted straight through the letterbox. They have it called the "letterbox cake" for obvious reasons. They also send out a balloon and candles with it too! 

This is such a perfect idea for a little gift for lots of occasions like birthdays, anniversaries, mothers/Father's Day and get well soons. It comes in very handy for those family members and friends who don't see that often.

So if your stuck for gift ideas or your buying for someone who has everything this little idea is a perfect gift that is sweet, says a lot and tastes nice too! 

You can purchase these at www.Bakerdays.com they do cakes all sizes and deliver :)

Tommy & Beth: Our Little Love Story

So I thought it would be a good idea to tell you all how I came to find my true prince charming (sorry for the cringe factor!) and became to be a part of this lovely family...

Never being one to go out clubbing, drinking ect, I knew finding
love wouldn't be easy and would only be in with a chance of 'pulling' once a year (prob Christmas or New Year). Not that I was going out looking for men, but you are always aware that you could possibly go home at the end of the night with either a big ego and a new number on your contact list or with ya self esteem shot down and asking yourself why you have a phone. I had come to a point in my life where I realised love wouldn't come knocking at my door and decided to give internet dating a try... 

I used to be very skeptical about internet dating due to the amount of horror stories you hear about them... and believe me there are a few questionable characters on there, but I decided to put my hesitations to one side and give it a go! Why not? 
I found myself getting a lot of private messages of cringy chat up lines and getting into some weird conversations with some strange men its then I started questioning my decision on joining the site so I signed myself off. 
Its scary to think I almost never met the 'one' and how different my life could have ended up, I thank my lucky stars I had one last random check of my online dating inbox, because sitting there was a message from a guy who was sweet, kind and thoughtful a guy who as soon as saw his picture just looked different from the rest, maybe it was the look in his eye I don't know. It was the message I had hoped for from the the man I had always dreamed of, my future husband. 


The first picture I saw of Tommy ... 

With  his number in my inbox I excitedly sent the first text message and we have not looked back. We was texting non stop from that point on. I can remember getting butterflies in my stomach every time I saw he had messaged me and my fingers were twitching to text back. Not long after starting our text conversations we decided it was time for a phone call and one evening he rung me, his voice was like magic, all I thought it would be and more we clicked even  more and spent 5 hours on the phone not going asleep til early hours. Every night on from that we would speak on the phone for 3 hours each time, needless to say our phone bills took a bashing but it was so worth it!. To be honest, I think our families got a bit annoyed at us talking through the night and keeping them up but I am sure they would now agree that they wouldn't have had it any other way because we have ended up so happy. 

Our first date: 

I was on at Tom to come and see me, with him the only one that drove it made sense that he came to me first and Tommy being the gentleman he is wouldn't have it any other way. Once Tommy finally set a date to come and see me I was buzzing for the two weeks leading up to it and the Saturday couldn't come round quick enough,tho it felt like those weeks dragged!! When the day finally came I spent ages getting ready and couldn't shake the feeling of butterflies! I even  made my mum answer the door because I was so nervous! I didn't want him to see me and  be disappointed because believe me when I laid eyes on him for that first time I felt like a Disney princess staring into the eyes of my handsome prince charming.We had a lovely time going for Nandos  and to the cinema, we laughed and joked and just clicked straight away it felt like we had known each other forever, we even had our first kiss! By the time it came to say goodbye I felt like part of me was leaving, so we arranged a meeting in London the next weekend.We have been inseparable ever since.

My first trip to Windsor:

Tommy took me to meet his family in Windsor not long after our trip to London, it was the most amazing weekend of my life! As soon as I entered the family home everyone was immediately welcoming and kind. We spent our first nights together and woke up to each other it was bliss. Tommy took me to nandos and Windsor castle, I remember kissing Tom in the car when we got back from the castle, I just remember thinking how perfect my life was, I still think that. When Tommy took me back to Essex that Sunday it was so hard to say could bye with both of us ending up in tears. We missed each other so much I ended up returning on the Wednesday. 

 Where are we now?:

We have never been apart since our weekend in Windsor, Tommy soon moved in with me in Essex at my parents home but due to work commitments we have recently moved to Windsor. Since the day we met me and Tom have got engaged hoping to marry next year and I am currently 8 months pregnant with a baby girl, not forgetting our beautiful daughter Ava. I am the happiest woman alive, my life is fulfilled with and wonderful husband to be and two beautiful daughters. Although we have our ups and downs and the odd argument we are stronger than any couple you will ever know, we are meant to be Tom is my soul mate. We are a team and get through any obstacles together. I love him so much and always will do. 

Thats mine and Toms story, for those of you that want a nice little quick read, this is a little insight to our lives so far. 

Hope you enjoyed, remember true love never dies ...

Lots Of Love
