Going Loco

Dominos is up there as my favourite takeaway so I was excited to recieve an invite to a special Brazillian party to celebrate the launch of their new Canivale pizza Range introduced especially for the World Cup. Inspired by South American flavours, it includes two new pizzas and two new sides. It's on offer until 14th September.

They set the bar high with the delicious Mojitos, I may not have been able to stop at one or two... I had a feeling the pizzas were going to be just as good. As my boyfriend and I grabbed a table to watch the entertainment, we eagerly kept our eyes peeled to sample the pizzas.

After much thought and a hell of a lot of tasting we both decided the Fiesta came out on top. There was just something about the cheeky mojito drizzle alongside the chicken strips, red peppers, green peppers, red onions and a sprinkling of fajita spice. It was like a party in our mouth and we proceeded to have quite a few slices!

The slightly spicer Rio was perfect for those who prefer a kick. With pulled barbacoa beef, red onions, green peppers, red peppers and a tasty chipotle sauce to finish it off. Well worth splashing out for on Two for Tuesdays.

Thanks for the pizza Dominos, it was an absolute pleasure! 

The England match today is the perfect time to tuck in - what are you waiting for? Give them a call!

I just don't know where the week has gone, it seems only yesterday it was Sunday! I've barely had any time to think. But can't complain about being busy! I popped into Primark a few weeks ago to grab some Glasto essentials and you know how it is. You grab something you need and get distracted by things you don't need and end up spending a small fortune. It's all a bit of a blur! This two piece set was something that caught my eye and swiftly came home with me. I actually met my friend a few days later for lunch after I brought it  and she mentioned she saw a skirt that was perfect for me and promptly described this one. It seems I might be predictable...

I gave it it's first outing at the weekend to a Murder Mystery overnight stay at a fancy local hotel for my mum's friends 60th birthday. We had afternoon tea, went for a quick outfit change before coming down for a three course meal with a bit of light entertainment. The murder mystery wasn't quite what I expected but I had a really lovely evening and don't think I stopped laughing. I drunk far too many glasses of wine and completely overindulged at the buffet breakfast the next day. The makings of a great weekend!

Have you ever been to a Murder Mystery weekend?

Dove Colour Confidence

I was invited to help celebrate a new camapaign for Dove Invisble Dry deodorant to spread the news that it's been proven to leave no white marks on a staggering 100 different colours. Pretty impressive right? They've teamed up with fashion designer Olivia Rubin to encourage women to ditch the drab black and embrace more colour. You can upload photos of yourself wearing vibrant colours throughout this month onto their website to be in with a chance to win a special capsule collection. It's been created exclusively for Dove by the woman herself.

 

I got to have a chat with colour psychology expert Karen Haller who gave her top tips on how colour can work for you. I didn't realise that hot pink is actually a cold colour as it's blue based. It's probably only called hot pink because of the sheer intensity of the colour. I wear a lot of red as it's one of the colours I feel most confident in and found out it gives off phyiscal courage. Maybe there's a reason why I always wear it then?!

In our goodie bag we were kindly given a compressed bottle of the product. It holds exactly the same amount of product as a normal bottle but has less gas meaning it can be squeezed in 75ml bottle. This makes it perfect to take in your hand luggage for your holiday. It won't run out midway through like the normal tenny tiny travel bottles.

I've been trialing it for over a week, trying to make a concious effort to wear all different colours in a bid to find out if it lives up to its claim. So does it? A bit fat yes! So many deodorants leave the dreaded white mark, who's got time to wait for it to dry fully in the morning when you're in a rush? This dries almost instantly and so far it's not tarnished anything. Even black! I was forever running to the bathroom and splashing water in the offending area. This will definately be something i'll be picking up from Boots on a regular basis!

Are you a fan of Dove deordorants?
