New Moon Film Tie-In Book
With under a week to go before the release of New Moon, we’re loving the release of the Film-Tie in Book! It’s the same enthralling novel, but with a steamy new cover featuring Bella (Kristen Stewart) and Jacob (Taylor Lautner). The second story in the Twilight Saga, New Moon follows Bella as she copes with the loss of true love, when Edward realises his family pose to much of a threat to her safety and leave town. New Moon is my fav of the four books, I love the way Stephenie Meyer perfectly captures Bella’s heartache – and it’s our first proper introduction to the Wolf Pack. Fans of Team Jacob will also love the exclusive pull out poster included in the book - bonus! RRP $29.99

Burt's Bees
Last week FashionFlossie ed Shannon and I were treated to a special introduction to the new-to-New-Zealand, American cult beauty brand Burt’s Bees. We fell in love with the huge range of goodies; Burt’s Bees is all about creating natural, Earth-friendly personal care products formulated to help you maximise your well-being and that of the world around you. With everything from hair care, mother and baby products, facial care, body care and fab lip goodies, there’s a natural solution for all your skin issues. My fav product? The Super Shiny Natural Lip Gloss, it gives a gorgeous shine and tint, without the stickiness and drying effect of most other glosses.

Whether you’re an expert snow bunny, or a total amateur who just wants to have a bit of fun, Snowplanet is one of the few places where you can always frolick in the snow!Snowplanet is New Zealand’s first 365 days a year indoor snow dome, located in Auckland. A few weeks ago some of the team headed to Snowplanet for a morning of fun on the slopes – from skiing, snowboarding and even tobogganing (which is pretty extreme, believe it or not!), and we absolutely loved it! Although the weather is heating up, it doesn’t mean you can’t indulge in a bit of a winter fun! Visit www.snowplanet.co.nz for more info. 
 

 

Just in time for summer McCoy has released two new delicious fruit drink flavours – Pomegrante and Blueberry! Sweet, juicy and super refreshing, these flavours are absolutely divine (my fav is the Pomegranate). Enjoy them served over ice, or even mixed with a splash of vodka and soda, finished with a twist of lemon (deilsh!). The new flavours are also available in the new 1.8 litre bottle – a handy size when you need more than a litre, but aren’t quite after three! Lookout for your free sample and $1 discout coupons from your local supermarket now, or sample a yummy McCoy cocktail at your local Servilles salon throughout November, to kick start your summer with McCoy! Available in all good supermarkets, RRP $5.29.
