Will a Hair Straightener be Harmful to Your Hair — Nanjing, Jiangsu, China

Jump to the full entry & travel map Nanjing, Jiangsu, China People often ask one question: do hair straighteners bring short-term or long-term harm to hair?The hair straighteners like inexpensive GHD prove to be effective at high temperatures.We can only dry our hair when the temperatures are below 100℃ and when it comes to straighten the hair, nothing will do. However, hair is very sensitive to sunrays, high temperature.If your hair is at high temperatures, you may take some measures to protect them. For instance, ionic and infra red technologies.By breaking down the size of the water molecules, ionic technology will make the molecules on the hairs surface smaller and easier for that hair to absorb.This can actually improve the condition of your hair! In order to maintain the moisture in the hair and keep on adding it, we can combine these two technologies together.

Give me an E, give me an C…. — Quito, Ecuador

Jump to the full entry & travel map Quito, Ecuador P’s Report Managed to change the itinerary so we could be in the capital city for the v important 2010 qualification game of Ecuador v Uruguay (told G that the itinerary change was down to a new bus timetable). I remembered back in 2006 when Ecuador played England and we beat them, sending them out – that time the Ecuadorians didn’t care however and partied hard, just being at the World Cup and playing England was enough.

Rafting, showers and yoghurt — Akureyri, Northeast, Iceland

Yes it was bloody freezing, but what else could we expect from melted ice, really? We all turned up with our swimming gear, expecting to freeze our arses off in wetsuits, so were pleasantly surprised to be told we’d be wearing DRYsuits and could wear jumpers underneath

What do we do….500 metres 400, 300″ and so go the blocks into Harlem as you count up towards god knows where and what, 104th 108th, full of anticipation and nerves about this unknown place which reputation far precedes your visit; Captain she’s gonna hit! I am now staying on 101st street, aka the edge of oblivion. After checking in I made my way up the lift (elevator) to my dorm, which was occupied by a Spanish couple

Mara Flix — Nanjing, Jiangsu, China

Jump to the full entry & travel map Nanjing, Jiangsu, China One is a gigantic Tiffany Cushion ring designed to drape itself on the index finger as if crouching on a branch. That extravagant bijou, however, seems relatively modest compared to the life-size serpent necklace created for Mara Flix, the Mexican film star and femme fatale who understood that seduction begins with caprice. Her alarming chef d’oeuvre, which takes two hands to hold and was two years in the making has an ingeniously articulated body of 2,473 diamonds, set in platinum and gold, that weigh just over 178 carats; on its underside, the red, black and green enamel scales are as flat and cool to the touch as a snake’s belly

Halloween-themed Fragrance from Smell Bent

Remember when I reviewed those fragrances from Smell Bent a couple of weeks ago?  Well, I got an email from the company and they’ve got something special available for Halloween – A Bent Halloween Limited Edition Fragrances. now you see ‘em and now you don’t .  these little buggers are elusive.  hanging around for a little bit, but never quite long enough for you to get sick of them.  it does break our heart that they have to leave.  but then again, they say absinthe makes the heart grow fonder.  wait, that’s not it … but you get the point. This one sounds the best to me – Jackie O’Lantern

Fun new city for Warren, a nice return for Emy — Berlin, Germany

Jump to the full entry & travel map Berlin, Germany Berlin! Our first German-speaking country (four cities total), our second really big city, our first non-hostel accommodation, and Emy’s first time back to this wonderful city since she studied abroad there four years ago! For our four nights in Berlin, we stayed with Emy’s friend Sarah, who lives a short bus ride outside of the main part of the city. We were so pleased that her and her family were able to accommodate us, and it was a wonderful relief to stay in such a nice place. We’ve actually been enjoying the hostels a lot, but it still felt great to be able to sleep in a big comfortable bed with no late-night or early-morning commotion! It also allowed us to spend lots of time with Sarah and her and Emy’s mutual friend Mirjam, which was great! One thing we noticed was how lazy we suddenly became! Though both us felt like we’d gotten a good rest in Amsterdam, it was as if we were even more relaxed subconsciously here, and we often had trouble getting out of Sarah’s apartment before noon.

Sweet & Sassy Boyshorts at Target!

I stopped by my local Target today on my way home  to pick up some necessities and accessories for my Halloween costume.

Images: Target These Target Xhilaration Mesh Ruffle Boyshorts are too adorable not to pick up and they’re only $6.99 each! You can get yourself one in every colour and print.

Hoarder

I’ve seen the shows on television with the horders, although I’m not proud to admit it.  It’s like a car crash, you can’t look away.  Fortunately the handful I have seen have a happy ending, except the one lady who was going to be kicked out of her home.  However, at the last minute the landlord said she could stay, but I assume once the cameras were gone she would be homeless. There’s an auction coming up and no photos have been posted yet, but the auctioneer informed my mother and I that she never threw anything out.  I believe he said she had four storage sheds full, but the exact number escapes me.  She wasn’t homeless, she just kept everything.  In the collecting world, this could be gold.  I guess I’ll wait and see what the pictures show.

Donna Karan Cashmere Accessories

I feel like a lucky lady because I just had the opportunity to view (and feel!!) the entire Donna Karan Collection “The Cashmere Collection” for pre-Spring 2010.  You have not experienced luxury until you have wrapped yourself in Donna cashmere!  The Cashmere Collection that has been released mid-Fall is a new collection for Donna Karan and it consists of beautiful cashmere separates that can be mixed and matched to create a complete outfit with layers of luxurious cashmere.  Some of my favorite pieces from the collection are the accessories. Image: Nordstrom Donna Karan “The Cashmere Collection” Arm Warmers $395 Arm warmers are one of my favorite Fall accessories because they allow you to show your shoulders, but still stay warm.  I just find them sexy… Image: Nordstrom Donna Karan “The Cashmere Collection” Leggings $495 I have never seen such luxurious leggings!  These stretchy cashmere leggings are available in black, light grey melange (pictured above), or flannel grey.  I think I would want to wear them 24/7. Some select pieces in the collection (including those mentioned above) are available online for pre-order at Nordstrom.com .  Visit your nearest Nordstrom location to view the full collection.

Just Like Men in Black — Dubai, United Arab Emirates

Jump to the full entry & travel map Dubai, United Arab Emirates We arrived at Dubai Airport and left the Plane under searing heat at 7.30am in the morning! Having got onto a shuttle bus the journey to the terminal took 10 minutes, I counted a row of 25 new Boeing aircraft all in Emirates colours and suddenly realised that Birmingham Airport has a bit of a cheek calling itself “International”. In the terminal we grabbed a cup of coffee and sat people watching

Ugg boots combine soft shank and sheepskin interio — Changzhou, Jiangsu, China

Jump to the full entry & travel map Changzhou, Jiangsu, China Ugg boots which combine soft shank and sheepskin interior are designed for casual, short term use, and not for eventualities which need robust, protecting footwear, as the design emphasis is on style and comfort rather than protecting the feet. Cleaning products should never be applied immediately to the sheepskin, as this will cause persistent damage
