So if you haven't got one yet, your geek credentials are in … [Read more...]
Review: Sketchers Shape-ups
Being a bit of a gym-dodger when it comes to exercise, the concept of a pair of trainers that tones up the legs and bum without taking a step near a treadmill appealed immediately. So, when Fitness Footwear offered me the chance to try out their latest range of Shape Up trainers, I happily took … [Read more...]
Maybelline Pulse Perfection Mascara Review
A little while ago I mentioned a couple of vibrating mascaras that proudly claimed to be the Next Big Thing in the world of cosmetics. Following in the footsteps of the vibrating cleansers (the Neutrogena Wave and the Clarisonic Skin Therapy System) and the vibrating hair straighteners (The Pink … [Read more...]
Where to find bargain designer clothes online
Designer stores scare me. Snooty shop assistants, ultra-organised and therefore intimidating rails, and huge price tags have me running for the high street faster than you can say "so this season" The thing is, after years of buying cheap and cheerful high street clothes, I want to start … [Read more...]

Cloud Nine hair straighteners
It's probably quite clear by now from our recent post that Dork Adore is firmly a collection of GHD devotees. Personally I've tried out a few other types of hair straighteners, including the wet-to-dry ones and the cheaper ones, but I always come back to GHD.

JoyofClothes.com: The key to stress-free shopping?
Clothes shopping online has so many advantages to its real life equivalent. It's often cheaper, faster and no one seems to mind if you do it whilst wearing a pair of cow print pyjamas. Unfortunately, online shopping tends to lead to some of us *cough* taking on a slightly skewed view of their … [Read more...]
Breastlight: A spotlight on breast health
Checking your breasts on a regular basis should be as much a part of your routine as booking in a wax or giving yourself a manicure. The thing is, a lot of women (me included) are unsure of what to look for. Things can change a lot over the course of a month and it's hard know what changes are … [Read more...]
