AntiGravity Yoga…

Has anyone tried this?

I’ve been watching Fox News (don’t hate me, I like it, it makes me think I’m on holiday) and they had a little snippet of this ant-gravity yoga which to me looks like a lot of monkeying around with bedsheets suspended from the ceiling.

It’s a craze that is huge in New York (and if New Yorkers love it then…its got to be good right?).
I really fancy having a go, there is something very Cirque du Soleil about it all don’t you think?

Tea Tasters…

I think I’m a little obsessed with buying tea at the moment. All these limited editions and new styles coming out are causing my tea shelf to buckle. Which is why I LOVE this idea.

Twinings (the feeder of my habit) are doing a tea taster club. For £75 a year you get a different tea to try each month plus you get 10% off purchases from Twinings (dangerous). You also get to talk tea” with Master Blenders, exclusive events at twinings HQ at 216 Strand, samples of new products and a complimentary tea-tasting session at our Strand Shop is yours with your subscription.

What do you think?? Worth the money? will it stop me having to install a specific tea store in my home? Answers below please!

Urban Retreat @ Home

I blame the lovely @Lovelysvintage  for the spa envy that I’m feeling this evening after she sent me details of the new Urban Retreat home experience from Harrods.

The Urban Retreat Group, renowned for its’ iconic and Award Winning 20,000 sq ft super salon on the Fifth Floor of Harrods, has now created Urban Retreat at Home, offering a total beauty experience, without ever having to leave your house.

With fragrance in the air and a choice of playlist on the ipod you will believe you are a long way from home – but without any of the hassle of getting there.

I LOVE the idea of having a *decent* spa treatment at home and after the amount of cleaning I’d have to do for them to come I’d totally deserve it too!

The Treatments

The Works – 2hrs 45mins: If you are looking for a truly sumptuous bespoke package where you can customise your massage, body treatment and facial, then you need ‘the works.’ Everyone knows the benefits of all over body treatments and you can tailor make yours to deliver just what you need. This must-have treat is not to be missed.

Night In – 2hrs 30mins: What could be better than a great night in that leaves you looking and feeling great, too. A customised facial will deliver the results you need whilst fabulous hands and feet, finished in gorgeous colours, will complete the look.

Polished – 1hr 30mins: Pre-holiday, pre that big event or just because you deserve it… every woman should have beautiful hands and feet perfectly polished in the colour of her choice.

Eye Love It – 45mins: They say the eyes are the windows of the soul; even more important, then, to have them in tip top condition. Start with our Cooling Eye Treatment designed to reduce toxins and improve the texture of the skin, then finish the effect with an eye brow shape and an eye lash tint. There will be no looking back!
