{I finally bought the Benefit They’re Real Mascara that I’ve been reading so much about on various beauty blogs. So far it lives up to the hype.}
{More peonies. I’m convinced that fresh flowers on my desk boosts my productivity!}
{A photo of the London Eye while crossing the bridge for a meeting in town this week. Do you know, I have never been on it!}
{Blazing sunshine at Casper’s sports day today. He did well in all his races and, most importantly, had great fun.}

Hope you have a fantastic weekend! X

I’m loving Benefit’s They’re Real! Liner! I agree with you that flowers on your desk make you more productive too 🙂 That’s my reasoning and I’m sticking to it!!

Ooh I need to check that eyeliner out! The only problem with fresh flowers is that they wilt too quickly, I will have to buy a fresh bunch tomorrow. X
Glad you had better luck with the Benefit’s mascara than I ever did. It just made my eyelashes go into massive clumps. Yves Saint Laurent’s Faux Cils Effect mascara is far better.
Peonies, especially pink ones, are my favourite ever flowers. Beautiful.
And surely the London Eye has got to be done? Although maybe wait for tourist season to subside a bit. Would be fab on a clear autumn day.
I’ve found it OK so far. Would like it to be a bit more volumising perhaps but good for daytime. I wil definitely check out the YSL one next time.
I agree about London Eye – I’m not keen on heights though so will need a stiff G&T before going on board I think! X
My dad couldn’t even make it up
To the first floor of the Eiffel Tower (in part because my mum made us use the stairs) but he was fine with the London Eye. I think it helps that you’re enclosed, so no wind, that urge to jump eliminated (or is that just me?!) and you barely feel you’re moving.
Mind you, any excuse for a G&T…
Do you find the mascara leaves you with panda eyes? I haven’t bought it but that’s the consensus I got from friends that have tried it. But I’ve also read rave reviews!! So I’m torn x
I like it so far, no clumping or smudging and it stays on all day. I would like it it give a bit more volume perhaps but perfect for daytime. X
I love all your photos. Looks like you are all enjoying a fab summer. Is that one of those chemical eyelash enhancers? If so, one caution is that they can change the pigment of the iris permanently. So, for light-eyed people, it may make the iris brown. Just saying …
Is that right? Very interesting. If you have a source please share it. X
Thank you. I think it’s just a regular mascara, I’ve never heard of those chemical ones. Sounds scary! X
Peonies are my favourite flower too. They definitely improve mood, increasing calm & productivity. All that beauty…
I know, so lovely. Mine are looking rather sad now though so will have to buy a replacement bunch tomorrow. X
Can you give me a definitive on the mascara..? I’m always on the lookout for the best and your recommendation will be heeded.
I’ve only been using it for a week and I’m no beauty blogger but so far I like it. Doesn’t smudge or clump and stats put all day. My only slight gripe is that it could be more volumising but that’s because I have long but quite thin lashes. Definitely a good buy though. X
Awww looks fun! And I love your photos- especially the one of the Ferris Wheel!
Thank you. I hope to go on the London Eye on day – just need to conquer my fear of heights first…X
