Sunglasses Alert! Bottled Brights

I wondered whether CK One Summer even has a legitmate place on the blog given that I haven’t smelled it, don’t know the notes and haven’t a clue about the composition. But, what attracted me to this fragrance is the bottle. I love it. Packaging is such a strong part of the sell and this one is spot on for grabability – if I saw it in store I would reach out and grab me one. Everything about it sings summer; bright, bold, a little bit hazy and altogether channeling a happy, vibrant moment.


I spotted these beautiful glycerine soaps over on Canadian site, www.joefresh.com. The bath and body products are all simply packaged, using a single shot of colour to bring them to life. It’s just soap, but so perfectly executed I instantly want them all. 

I was lucky enough to have a manicure using Essie shade Braziliant, from the summer collection, Braziliant, and I haven’t stopped thinking about the colour ever since. It’s a shimmering orange that stops short of being neon but still packs a punch of colour that is absolutely gorgeous. The shimmer is interesting because it has a nuance of pink running through it.

    I have the CK One Summer perfume. Really nice summery scent, however, I feel that it lacks staying power so a liberal dosage is required if you are going out in the evening. But really good for wearing during the day. One of my faves!

  2. basenotes.net is always a good reference for notes x

  3. Just wanted to note that Joe is a Canadian brand, not Australian. It is by Joe Mimran who started Club Monaco.

  4. Hi Niche..thank you! I meant Canadian..honest! xxx

    Now scouring the UK internets for Braziliant…

  6. I agree with Georgie, I have it too and it doesn’t last that long at all so you really have to douse yourself in it!x

    Wearing Braziliant right now! Very interesting color and very pretty!

  8. Productdoctor: orange is so my colour – every time I think they’ve done all they can with that hue, someone does something else!

  9. Loving the sound of that Essie polish!

  10. np, BBB….if you are ever in NYC, they opened a freestanding shop there.

    And I just got braziliant and its a great nail polish. It is bright but still appropriate for office (on toes though, I work in a conservative place).

    That Essie polish looks juicy. One of my favourite colours too. I think orange is going to perfect for this Summer.
