Why would you want to layer your perfume?
If you ever wanted to have a unique scent you can make your own without knowing any perfumery. I’m going to make it simple and easy and allow for creativity.
Start with the heavier scents so what you put on top won’t disappear.
Do your research or better yet find out through trial and error which notes works best together or you like best.
The easiest way is no stay in the same family. May it be floral, sweet, fresh…
The other way is to combine opposite families like sweet (vanilla note) and spicy, or other combinations that you might like.
Don’t forget that you can use any of your body oils and scented body lotions as well. In other words, you do not need to use perfumes all the time, which is great news because that can be quite expensive.
These three simple rules are all you need to know. Now you can create your own unique scent.

*** Also, we have changed our atomizers because we heard you!
summer is here and we are all about short shorts, miniskirts and, maxi dresses with splits. So let’s talk about how to get sexy legs for summer. I’ve searched the web and found all the basics that you need to know.
Here is one of the easiest and shortest exercises that I found thanks to Petite Heartbeat. The best thing about it is that you won’t need anything to do this workout so, it can actually be done at home.
Have you had one of those days that you wear your favorite dress and it looks like you haven’t shave your legs for a week? And you are thinking to yourself how that is even possible I’ve shaved them yesterday! Yes, it happens to all of us.
If you don’t want those black pores on your legs, try scrubbing before shaving.
Here is one of the best I found for a leg scrub.
What you need:
1 ¼ Cups sugar
3 tablespoons of lemon juice
¾ cup coconut oil
Mix them all in a bowl and whip them. That’s it! Your scrub is ready to use.
Hair Removal
This is an essential part of summer. Even though Waxing leaves your legs smoother and lasts longer, not many of us can wait for our hair to grow sufficiently long before booking our next appointment. So we choose to shave.
The word on the street (the internet) is that we all should invest in a bottle of baby oil instead of shaving creams.
Tan Enhancer
Don’t forget to buy your Tan Enhancer and make sure it has SPF. Some good brands that I know of are Hawaiian, Australian Gold and Jergens.
Enjoy the summer heat and cute clothing!

Now let’s go through the list of our favorite wedding perfumes:
1. Vera Wang Eau De Parfum
This vibrant and flirtatious scent is a blend of Gardenia, Lotus, Iris, and White Stephanotis.
2. Elie Saab L’eau Couture
“Here, Orange Blossom unveils an unexpected facet, inspired by the fleeting period when the newly-bloomed blossoms exude slightly almond notes. As its traditional honey-like aromas are subdued, Orange Blossom inhabits the fragrance like a poetic whisper. Its subtly textured floral freshness, upheld by intricate transparency, is an echo of sun-kissed femininity.”
3. Annick Goutal Rose Splendide
This feminine fragrance’s notes are Rose, Musk, Magnolia, & Pear.
4. Creed Love In White
This harmonious and feminine scent is a blend of South Spain Orange Juices, Italian Jasmine, French Riviera Narcissus, Tonkin Rice, Egyptian Iris, and Guatemala Mountain Magnolia.
5. Gucci Bamboo
Fragrances notes are Italian Bergamot, Casablanca Lily, Ylang Ylang, Comoros, and Sandalwood.
My honorable mentions are Marc Jacobs Daisy Dream and, Flowerbomb. The reason I didn’t add them in the list they are so popular that many of the guests may be wearing them. If that’s not a deal breaker for you give them a try too.
Wish you all the best. 👰

We have been collecting our perfume bottles to do a series of DIY projects. I personally think these bottles are too beautiful to be thrown out, so let’s recycle them.
First Project is a decal display. This one is the easiest one.
All you need is empty perfume bottles and a clean wall. Using a mounting tape, tape your bottles to the wall in your own design. This works for a bathroom, beauty room or even a bedroom.
This is a sample picture to show you can do this with as little as 3 bottles and the more you have the more designs you can make. You can play with colors to make it more interesting.
I hope these fun little projects help you to save and recycle your fragrance bottles.
