Aveda: Review

We went out shopping in London recently, so my mother and I went in Aveda, see site (Here). Now I'm going to be honest I don't think I have ever heard of Aveda the brand before. Although reassured by the woman in the shop they are a professional brand a lot of hair dressers use.


What attracted us to the shop was the sign that said Hair damage remedy's, and my hair is in the worst condition of my life. The shop assistant did a test on us all testing for damage or dryness or just both. She tested if the hair would break when tugged, she said my hair was both dry and damaged .... just great! Although I was expecting it as not long ago I did dye my hair bleach blonde which wasn't very good for it at all, my mother did pre warn me but like usual I ignored her .... I  wanted it done regardless. I have been trying to get it back to the way it was before, I have cut off a lot of my hair to help get rid of the dye.
Well anyway after about an hour and a half in the shop and my mother getting a few testers on her hair etc.. we managed to get out of there not empty handed though!
We bought the daily hair repair £22.50 and the intensive restructuring treatment £29.50 conditioners.
The daily one was a leave in conditioner and the restructuring one was to be left in for 3 minutes whilst in the shower and then washed out. I have been using them for a week or so now and I can already tell the difference in my hair. It is softer not so dry, it also has a great healthy look to it.

I would purchase these items again, I think they are relatively expensive though and not something I would usually spend this amount of money on.
The Small bottle the Be curly one was a tester she gave to me because of my curly hair, this definitely boosts the curl you get, which was good for me.


The orange bottle, Sun care - Hair and body cleanser £17.50 we got  for my sister as her hair after holidays or after her swimming lessons goes really strange, dry and makes it look even thinner.
 She needed something to take all the chlorine/salt out of her hair and also protect it in the sun. This has improved the look of her hair and is great for kids as is not harsh on the skin at all.

Have you ever tried any of the Aveda products? Have you ever even heard of the make?

Russell & Bromley

Ever since I was little I can remember wanting to have a pair of Russell and Bromley shoes. I Adore them and well I guess you can say at the age of 18 I finally convinced myself I needed them now more than ever. The lady in the shop was saying how gorgeous they were and you know how convincing they get when they put their sales voices on! Plus (such a bonus) they were in the sale finally!!! They are the Chester - Tassel loafer in Yellow Calf. I paid £125.00 but the colours that are not in the sale are £165.00.
See Website Here.
                 
I Bought the Yellow.... I thought yellow was the perfect colour for the summer! It is not usually a colour I would pick for myself but I really am liking them, they are bright and different.
 





I don't think I have ever bought something that I have loved this much ... I just want to get motherly and start cleaning them all the time and getting all upset when a stray mark appears.

I am actually too scared to wear them cause what if they get dirty!! but anyway I am sure you will see them dotted around in my future fashion posts.

Do you like them? What colour would you pick they have them in loads of colours.
